  Shiro ran down the hallways of the headquarters, trying reach the chief's office as fast as he can. He was almost there when the door suddenly opened, revealing a petite girl on the doorstep, ready to run in any minute. He barely stopped, barely smashing his face on the wall. He caught his breath as the chief watched at him, confused, raising her eyebrows. He finally had his breathing steady when Mayuna raised a hand at him, making him stop.

  "I know what's happening, I saw at the window. I'd like you to order the guards to gather the villagers in the safest place possible. Dealing with two giants can take a long time to defeat. When you're done, call EXO you know what's next." Shiro nodded in response, not hesitating to run again since he was tired. Mayuna nibbled her fingers, a habit of hers that means she is really nervous. She shook it off and ran outside then stopped midway. She facepalmed,

  "I'm unarmed, damn it." she ran to the nearest blacksmith in the village and grabbed a reserved weapon in one of her drawers and went to the field, not minding she was only in a cloak and normal clothes, she forgot to wear armor. She waited for her cue on a roof, saw the villagers already gone. Good job, secretary Shiro.

  Minyoung and Yoongi had no idea what was going on, they were pulled by the two siblings into underground, they heard debris crash at the entrance and killed a few of the villagers. A lump in Minyoung's throat came as she pity came in her. What is this village, she thought. They were huddled, compressed and no one complained about the heat and they were lucky no one panics in this kind of situation. Suga held her tightly by her waist, keeping her calm and safe. They heard Jungkook's voice calling them from behind and were pulled again from the crowd, leading them to a spacious place wherein Taehyung had an unexpected worried expression, his eyes moved from every corner of his eyes. This made Minyoung even more nervous, what has happening out there and why are there debris being thrown away.

  "Minyoung noona, do you stil have the glass Yu handed you?" Jungkook asked.

  "Ah, yes...yes." she pulled it out from her pocket, the glass was the size of her hand, she poked it three times and a battlefield appeared in front of her, a redhead on a roof. Her eyes widened at the sudden change of her appearance. Particles of glass surrounded her as red flame burned her right eye, or was it really burning? She heard her pants, winces. There wasn't any wounds so she already was really and completely confused of what's going on. She turned to Jungkook and Taehyung who had their eyes focused at the view from the glass. She poked Taehyung's arm, her eyes demanding for an explaination and he immediately understood it.

  "Promise me you won't freak out?" he asked.
  "I won't." she drew a cross on her heart. He scratched the back of his neck and spoke,

  "The village is usually attacked by giants from some place we don't know. And our only chance of living is held by EXO, Kyouko Mayuna who is also known as Yu, her secretary, Shiro, and our father along with a few extra warriors. They must succeed or else no one here would survive the underground, get what I mean?" Minyoung nodded vigorously, almost undrstanding the whole situation. She turned over her shoulder, saw Suga chewing on his lips, he's nervous like I am, she thought.

  "And someday, we'll join them." Jungkook said, a tint of pride in his voice.

  "Why is that?" Suga butted in, trying to calm himself.

  "We're the sons of the village's leader and soon one of us will take our father's position when he is no longer able to fight." Jungkook plainly answered. They kept silent for a few seconds and decided to watch as Yu came to her cue.

「Back to the battlefield...」

  "Hyung, it targetted you!!" Sehun warned Luhan who barely dodged the giant's kick. He gave a thumbs up as a I sign of gratitude. Deft in moving wall to wall, Kyungsoo took the chance, charged himself at the giant's arms, cutting them off with his blades. 「[a/n: I only took AOT as a reference but doesn't mean I own the anime.]」He called in Kai by grabbing on of Yu's glass and breaking it to shreds, causing a green beam reach the skies. The giant fell to the ground as his legs were cut off by Tao and Kris, they high-fived each other as they passed by each other. The giant fell to the ground and Kai, along with Kyungsoo, Suho and Lay, sliced open the giant's body in four. They landed on a roof with the others, their eyes focused on the other team trying to knock down the second giant by Baekhyun, Chanyeol, Xiumin, and Chen. Kyungsoo tapped Yu's back, signaling her to go and help them. The female just nodded and sprinted toward the giant. She glanced at Baekhyin who had a face that was about to release anger. She looked at Chanyeol and her eyes widened as she saw him on the ground, his ankle twisted, Xiumin and Chen noticed this and went to him, carrying him away. Now it was all up to Yu and Baekhyun. Yu took a breath and handed a thin glass to Baekhyun in which he didn't accept. She understood and pulled a weak smile,

  "Promise me you'll come back alive." she said. The older just placed a hand on her head,

  "Promise, Mayuna."
  "At the count of three."

  "1..."

  "...2..."

  "...3!" they launched towards the unscratched giant with all their might. The two took turns being the decoy and the others watched in awe as the two moved like lightning. They positioned to their last attack, Baekhyun charged and so did Yu. They held their blades down and sliced the giant in. The giant exploded in a cloud of dust. Baekhyun and Mayuna were almost at the end of their breath, they panted as they walked to each other to exchange compliments. The others and the leader went to them, a slow clap coming from the leader,

  "You were more different than I expected, Kyouko and Byun." he said Yu just muttered a thank you before collapsing and Baekhyun just caught her just in time. He chuckled as he saw her sleeping in his arms as they walked back to the headquarters.
