My smile dropped when he said this. I'm not used to having a perfect life like I did three years ago, so this shouldn't have been a surprise to me. " What's wrong? ". Yoongi works with the police department, he's a detective.

" I have some news.... And it's about you ". My heart sank when he said this, but I tried to keep my thoughts straight. " What is it? Tell me ". Instead of talking, he took something from behind him and stretched his hand toward me.

A file...

Placing the dog on the ground, I walked up to him taking the file from his hand. " What's this? ". I opened the file as I said that. " This document has everything on you, what you do, where you first lived... And your name". ' my name? '. My eyes widened when I saw what was written.

FILE TERMINATED

' my name...is Steve Roland? '. stared at the writing, reading it over and over again. " This might be a clue to help solve your puzzle". I shot my head upwards, seeing Yoongi leashing Holy. " I'll see you again soon". I nodded as he closed the door to my shared apartment, leaving me alone in it.

I placed the file on the kitchen counter. Leaning over the document I ran my hand through my hair, messing it up, but then in that moment I got a flashback.

FLASHBACK

I was cradling one of the M 45’s, which I've been fixing, loading and turning in for the past three day's, in my hands, loading it with the necessary equipment that it might need.

The room was dim, with one bulb hanging from the ceiling. No windows could be found, except one, which was high above me, but due to the fact that it was dusk there wasn't much light coming from outside.

The bulb shone only on me, leaving the other four corners of the room in total darkness. But I wasn't completely alone, having the surveillance camera, with someone watching and checking on me every now and then,  was good enough for me.

Still busy with the gun, I didn't pay much attention to anything else before my phone rang. Sighing, I flipped it out my pants, checking the caller ID.

Jihyun

" Hello? ". I answered, annoyance laced in my voice. " Calm down Steve, I just called you to let you know that you can have a break. Come join me and the guys for dinner ". I was about to turn down his offer until me stomach made a loud and thunderous noise. " Well then, that's a yes, See you in the cafeteria! ". He hung up and I cursed my stomach for not staying quiet.

I placed the gun down with the other's and made my way outside the room.

Slinging my bag over my shoulder, I closed the door to the room and turned off it's light before going down the empty hall.

At least... That's what I thought...

My footsteps were audible in the dim and empty hall, as I passed by an insect every now and then, even saying hello to a lonely cockroach who waved back with its antenna before moving on.

Because of how dark it was, I couldn't see too clearly and the lights were far apart in different halls and directions. So I held onto the wall to my left, guiding myself as I walked while my other hand was stretched out in front of me.

My steps got slower because I could tell something was wrong.

Is someone following me?

I decided not to pay much attention to the footsteps behind me, thinking that it was maybe one of the snipers like myself, searching for the cafeteria.

But before I even knew it, or got the time to process it, I was hit in the head with a cold metal object. " SHIT! ". I cursed, falling to the floor with a thud. " You know something Steve.... Never trust your mind, always trust your guts". My eyes widened at the voice of my so-called best friend.















Jihyun











" What the hell do you want from me? ". I growled, as I stood up. " Your life and position, nothing major". We stood six feet away from where light could've been seen, so it wasn't hard to see each other's faces.

He smiled like a chester cat, while holding a hand gun in his hands. "Well then steve.... Its a life or death situation". He kept pestering and that pissed me off. " You think I'd give up that easily? ". His smile turned into a scorn but that immediately changed back into a even wider smile than before. " Well, sure you will". He says, chucking like a crazy person.

" Let's see who'll win... Sniper verses police officer ".
