I am Gone

Chapter 15

"I fucking can't believe S.Coups sent me to the twins! He could literally send anyone but me, ME!" Seungkwan complained while sipping his early Iced Americano drink. He was also carrying two Venti frappucchino as he heads somewhere on the dumpsters full of wrecked cars.

"He could've just sent that small fry or Wonwoo-hyung here." He complained once more.

Somewhere in the area, Seungkwan stands on a manhole, tapping his foot like crazy. It looks humiliating, but the tapping was a password for entry to a secret base. The manhole he was standing on went down, but the experience was like "being sucked on a vacuum that could get you 'splinched' like Apparating in that certain fictional book."

He managed to balance himself after the abrupt end of the ride. A thin layer of glass slides to the side, letting him out of that hell-evator. It was dark but the space of the room was small so Seungkwan managed to stand in front of a steel door, the kind used in banks. A small red light was blinking above, it was a CCTV.

"Let me in. I bought you guys something nice. Come on!" He groaned after.

A short, loud beep… then the wheel on the steel door spinning on it's own to open. Seungkwan steps in before the heavy steel door closes. Once his eyes adjusted to the brightness of the monitors emitted, he could see two figures sitting in front of those monitors. And the one on the right spins it's chair, revealing a cute, young looking woman with a blank expression.

That girl instantly shot up on her seat, lunging at Seungkwan. Before he could prepare to defend himself, she was already right in front of him. Seungkwan tried to keep his composure, gulping the lump on his throat as much as possible. Without moving an inch, he was already hugged by her, taking him by surprise.

"Ahhh, Seungkwannie!" She was squealing and jumping in excitement, scaring Seungkwan even more.

"Uhm, U-Umji-ya?" He said to the woman hugging him with a shivering voice. In the middle of his attempt to escape from her captive, the other figure turned around. It's another woman with stronger facial features, a lollipop in her mouth and have eyes that could pierce a human with her glare.

"Umji!" She called with in warning tone, then looks at the poor, squished man. "What's that 'nice' thing you have?" She coldly asked.

"Frappucchino, Venti, and extra whipped cream on top." Seungkwan nervously said.

She smirks, taking out the lollipop in her mouth. "Okay, cool. Umji, take it."

"네~ (Yes~), Sinbinnie!" On Sinbi's command, Umji released Seungkwan from the hug and took the cardboard holder of the frappucchino he was carrying. "Sinbinnie, it's really frappes with extra whipped cream on top!"

"Good. Add some pastries next time." Sinbi shortly said.

Seungkwan breathes in relief, "Shit. I'm not coming back here." He mumbled to his own.

The twins, Sinbi and Umji, were informants. Basically, their source of intel. They were more advanced in data gathering than the police or the Supernatural Force, which makes them more reliable in the field. The only thing that really scares the whole team was their great contrasting personalities and their shut-in status, it creeps them out. Nonetheless, they work together very fine.

"So, what are you guys searching for? The recent kidnappings? 'Cause the reports of missing children just increased, specifically by dawn." Sinbi inquired and the additional information of new reports surprised Seungkwan.

"New reports of missing children?" Seungkwan became silent, thinking about this thoroughly. "Sinbi, please include it. Just in case."

Sinbi raised a brow, but shrugged her thoughts off. "'Kay. So, what is it about?"
