"Everything's going smoothly Mr. Kim." Eric says to Namjoon. "The attendance on the awards will be proceeding as planned. Your safety will be our first priority."

"That's good to know, Commander. We are grateful."

"Who will be the head of the mission, Eric?"

Eric sighs. "I would have liked for Ria to be on the leading, but I don't know if she will be back by then, mother."

Catherine stays silent. These little brats have taken Ria away and she has no communication line with her. She is afraid that this is something big and serious.

"Madame." She turns to the young gentleman with broad shoulders. Seokjin, was it? "I would like to thank you for your hospitality these days. Captain Ria has always been the one to welcome us, but since she couldn't attend, you took care of us in her place. Thank you so much for your precious time." He bows to her.

"May I know then, who will be the leader of the team accompanying us, Commander Eric?" Every head turns towards Yoongi, who is clearly in a bad mood.

Eric seems unbothered. He reminds me so much of his father. Catherine smiles softly. Oh dear, kids grow so fast. "I will have Eris and Rahul with you-" Is all he manages to say, before the door opens with such force, threatening to break in pieces and a fuming Yoojin comes into view. Ria on his tail, looking nauseous and panicked. Eric blinks, visible taken aback from their suddent arrival. "Yoojin?" He looks at his longlife friend who currently seems so deadly, like he has never seen him before. Then looks at Ria, who's panting hard and looks around her horrified. Shit. "Ria?" His voice soft on her.

Ria

Dear Father and Holy Spirit, I touch earth again. He almost killed me with his speed. And then he bursted to Eric's office without a second thought. And -oh such a delightful moment- Bangtan is here. Awesome.

"Eric-" Yoojin's voice is so low and angry that swifts the atmosphere around the room. Everyone freeze.

"No." I grab his hand, pleading logic onto him. "Look around you." He takes a moment and then seems to calm down a bit. He nods.

"What is going on?" I hear Eric's worried tone and I hate what I'm about to do to him. My eyes catches Catherine, who is fast enough to access the situation.

"Gentlemen, if it's okay with you and since we are over with the discussions, we will be meeting again on the day of the awards." She says politely, as she gestures our guests towards the door. Once they're out with Misa escorting them, she turns to us. "Now, what is the meaning of this?" I can't face her.

"Bring Jungwoo, Chris and Hyungsoo here and then we can talk." Yoojin says.

Hoseok

"Don't have that look with me, Hoseok. How should I know she is back, when I was with you?" Jungkook raises his hands in surrender. Yeah, I know.

Seokjin places a hand on my shoulder. "He is right, Hoseok. We have been in Gaia all day. Plus, it looks like not even Eric knew."

I clench my jaw. "Something's happening. Did you look at her? Did you look at Yoojin? He was out for cold blood." 

"Yeah," Namjoon joins. "Yes, you are right. He has always been composed up until now. However, despite that, what were you trying to do Hoseok? If Jimin and Taehyung hadn't catch you on time, you would have run to her. How would you have explained that?" I don't answer. I can't. I know I act on impulse when it comes to Ria and wearing a disguise is tiresome.
