Purple Kiss

I glared at them and bit my tongue in anger, 'Damn you'.

'You didn't think we'll play nicely did you?' He sneered, 'Now the bag'.

'Go to hell' I shoved the bag at his feet. He snickered once more before bending down to grab it.

I took a few steps backwards while they were distracted.

'Kill them' I heard faintly.

I press the button in my hand and dove behind the rooftop AC as a massive explosion shook the ground.

'ARGHHHHHH' I heard screams from behind me.

I sprinted sprinted towards the store room as debris fell around me. Junhui was limping from behind the corner as he came out to inspect the damage.

'What happened?' I saw his mouth move but the ringing in my ears was too loud. I looked down at his leg and see the blood dripping down his pants and onto the ground.

'Let's go' I said.

I bring his hand over my shoulder as I try to carry most of his weight. I secure the grappling hook once again and carry Junhui on my back as we scale down the walls of the mansion.

Luckily the guards were all called inside so we were able to get out and meet our driver nearby. I made sure we weren't being tracked as we got into the car and sped away.

'What happened out there?' Asked our driver, Soonyoung.

'Shut up and step on it! He's injured.' I barked.

Junhui was grasping his leg in pain, especially as the car jolted. I ripped the bottom of my jacket and tied a makeshift bandage around the wound.

'Here let me. It's only a scrape, good thing wound wasn't lodged in there' I said as I pressed down on his leg to stopped the bleeding.

'It hurts like a bi-'

'I know, just hang in there' I told him as I monitored his face. He was wincing in pain as sweat covered his forehead.

'Your head is bleeding too you know' he said, looking at me through half-open eyes.

'I'll be fine Hui, you don't have to worry about me'.

'Who said I was worried' he joked. But his face couldn't mask the pain he's in. If this is his first field mission and first bullet wound. That would really hurt like a bi-

'We're here' said Soonyoung.

'Thanks buddy' mumbled Junhui. 

I dragged him through the doors without a second to pass.

'MEDIC! EMERGENCY!'

The med team got Junhui and brought him to what I assume is their treatment room. My head got grazed by a bit of debris so I didn't need much attending to. I went up to Scoups' office and find him waiting for me.

'I have no idea what the fuck you did out there Kui but you better have a damn good explanation' he said in quiet anger

'Are you saying this is MY FUCKING FAULT?! Sending me in with barely a plan thought through and you couldn't even give us a visual of the stupid diamond? Your teammate is down there who barely escaped a bullet in his leg! And I-''

'Alright!' He said in finality, raising his hand.

He sighed and sat back down.

'That's exactly why I'm reacting like this. It's his first field mission Kui. I thought I did right to trust you.'

'You did! And I made mistakes. Which that cost us a lot. But there was a lot risking in this mission Coups. I knew that but I accepted it only because it was you who asked. And I never wanted that kid to come with me anyway. At least if I had gone alone, my pain tolerance would be too high to feel a mere bullet graze' 

Scoups stared at me for a couple of seconds.

'Ok. Go and check on your partner first. Then we'll talk' he stood and left the room before I could say anything else.
