On my body are black suit and tie
On my right arm there's an armband tight
Lollipop instead of a Rolly
Prepare yourselves now

Ten POV

The cool night breeze blew my hair out of my face as I adjusted my sight. A conversation between YangYang and Kun buzzed through my earpiece.

"I'm just saying that attaching jet engines to my skateboard would make it go soooo much faster. I wouldn't even have to push off," YangYang said.

"And I'm saying that it would be very difficult to steer and stop with a jet engine powered skateboard," Kun replied. "You turn at the wrong time and BOOM! You've crashed into a wall."

"You're no fun," YangYang pouted.

"Where would you even get engines that are small enough to fit?" I chimed in.

"I'm sure they could be made."

"You must be the only person who thinks of these things," Kun said to him.

"And that makes me special," I could hear YangYang's smirk.

"It sure does," I replied.

Whatever YangYang said next was drowned out by Lucas' laughter. I smiled to myself as YangYang struggled to find a good comeback.

"So what's the plan?" I interjected.

"The client said we should give this guy a good scare, but not to kill him," Kun said. "Whatever happens after that is not our business."

"Sounds good."

"How will you deliver this 'good scare?'" YangYang asked.

"Probably just blow off part of his ear with a bullet," I replied.

"Is that it?" Hendery joined the conversation.

"Do YOU have any ideas?"

"No."

"Thats what I thought. Kun and I are doing the work. What are you doing?"

"I'm in the ballroom," Kun interjected. "What now?"

"Lead the target over to the west window. Make sure his back is to us," I said.

I heard jumbled speech on Kun's end, and then he appeared in my line of sight with the target. He was a few inches taller than Kun with slicked back brown hair and a dark blue suit.

The guy laughed at something Kun said and rested a hand on Kun's arm. He eyed the guy's hand as it rubbed his arm. The guy said something that made Kun shoot me a look that said 'do it now!' I aligned my sight with the top of the target's ear.

"Don't move," I said, then fired.

The bullet soared through the air, shattered the window, and right through the guy's ear. He screamed in pain and I ducked out of sight.

I crawled over to a ladder on the side of the building I was on and climbed down. I packed my gear and slung the bag over my shoulder before I walked casually out of the alley and down the sidewalk away from the building. I reached the dark grey car parked on the side of the road and knocked on the door. The door folded up and I climbed in.

"How's he doing?" I asked as the door closed.

"Well the target didn't touch him anymore," Hendery said.

"Were the security cameras down?" I asked YangYang.

"Yup. Even the ones on surrounding buildings. I downed the power sources and made it look like a malfunction."

"Excellent."

Lucas drove us in front of the building Kun was in and he hurried down the steps looking like the other distraught guests. He slid in beside me and sighed as we drove off.

"The things I do for this company," He grumbled. "No amount of washing will get that guy off my suit."

Here's what the mentioned members of WayV look like in this story :)
You can't tell me Blonde Kun isn't one of the looks to end all looks 😫💖
