Where Are They?

"And you're sure they work for Dawon?" Baekhyun asked his boss as they squatted behind the trees, closely watching three men scout out a house to spend the night in. The trees were keeping them fairly well covered, the darkness was an extra security blanket, but the boy's hyperactivity was making it very obvious they were there to do more than watch. "Like, one hundred per cent sure?"

"Yes," Taemin shook his head, teeth gritted in annoyance. If only he thought things through before bringing Baekhyun, he would have brought a less irritating person with him. Even one of the kids would have been better than Baekhyun."The truck is from the hospital, I've seen Choi drive the very same one."

"Choi, right... Okay, last question," Baekhyun nodded, tapping his gun against the dirt beneath his feet, as he thought. "Why are we doing this?"

"They're from the hospital, they must work for Dawon," Taemin said, watching as one of the men carried the other inside and the door shut, stopping him from seeing anything else. "This is the perfect opportunity to make sure this is the last time that bitch ever shortchanges us."

"I really think I should be coming with you," Hoseok shook his head as he stood in the doorway of the armoury, watching as Seokjin grabbed a gun and a couple of boxes of ammo. "You may need..."

"Woosung is coming with me to avoid suspicion," Seokjin reassured the younger with a soft smile. Dawon had said, that night after she returned, that the rest of Bagntan wasn't to go out - knowing that they would be taking supplies to the three. Therefore, Seokjin had asked Woosung to join him so they could take his brothers some extra food, water, and blankets. "You can just stay here, Hoseokie. You need to stay in the warm, there's basically a blizzard out there."

"All the more reason for me to come..." Hoseok started but the elder cut him off.

"Hobi, it's fine, seriously," Seokjin shook his head as the younger pouted at him, hoping to change his mind. "Anyway, I need you here to keep your sister calm and distracted. Otherwise, we won't be able to keep helping them, okay?" 

Hoseok nodded a small nod, slouching against the door frame. He didn't want to be the one to keep Dawon in line, that shouldn't have been his job, and yet it seemed he had been stuck with it. He hated having to go behind his sister's back, but... All he wanted to do was go and make sure his brothers were okay, and yet he seemed to be on 'sister-watch', as Jungkook was unhelpfully calling it.

"Seokjinssi?" Woosung's voice came from behind the men, causing the younger to jump a little. The doctor flashed him an apologetic smile before turning towards the eldest. "You about ready to go?" 

"Yeah, I'm ready," Seokjin nodded, grabbing his backpack off the side and heading to leave the room. "Hobi, look after Jungkook for me. Make sure he doesn't start any more fights."

"Yes, hyung," Hoseok simply agreed, sounding rather sheepish as the two walked away. Keep Jungkook out of fights... Because that would be so easy!

"So, they didn't radio in, last night?" Woosung asked, eyes trained on the road they had been driving along for the past couple of hours. 

"No," Seokjin shook his head, the worry evident in his tone as he looked out of the truck passenger window. The road was coated in a thin but worrying layer of snow, the wind blowing it off from the trees and into the windscreen, just to be wiped away. "I was at least expecting Yoongi to call, let us know that they found somewhere safe to stay, but we haven't heard anything yet."
