So this it what I've come up with: I asked a friend in the army to take me to the concert. When I'm there I will "accidentaly" knock a personal guard of Stray Kids out. I will replace the person and be able to keep an eye on everyone and everything. To be honest: I have not fully recovered yet, but enough to do this mission. If everything goes well, I won't have to do anything but stand and hang out with some Asian guys. I've done some research about those guys and I have to admit that I kind of like their music. Argue with me as much as you want, but that's what I think.

"Jessica!" It's the captain who is probably going to rub it in that I can't go on their mission.

"Yes, I'll be there in a second." I put my hair in a braid and walk to the kitchen and dining room. Only the captain is there. Great.

"We'll be leaving in five minutes. Are you sure you'll be okay by yourself?"

"Yes, captain. I'm not seven anymore." There's a very awkward silence. "Be careful." It's barely a whisper but I'm sure the captain heard it.

"Sorry, can you say it again." I guess he didn't hear.

"I said 'be careful'." Only when I look at his face I see that he was joking when he pretended not to hear me. I roll my eyes. "Don't flatter yourself. It's just that if something happens to you, I have to meet a new captain again. He or she can't possibly be worse than you, but still, my guys have grown on you."

"And have I grown on you too?" He takes a few steps closer.

"Captain, we're ready." Jake walks in. "Sorry, am I interrupting something?"

"Yes-"

"No-" 

We both say at the same time. I shoot a glare at the captain. "No Jake, you're not interrupting anything. Looks like you have to go, sir." I say with clenched teeth.

"I guess so." Before he exits the room, he turns around with a mischievous look on his face. "Have fun being here by yourself, away from the mission."

"Oh go fu-" He slams the door before I can finish the sentence.

My friend just dropped me at the concert and I sneaked backstage. When I see one of the personal guards grabbing some food, I tap on his shoulder.

"What is it?"

"There's something wrong with one of the guys. Han has really bad diarrhoea. You have to come quickly!" He runs in front of me with the food in his hands. When we're alone in a hallway, I knock him out. "Sorry not sorry." I drag his body into a closet. "Now if you'll excuse me," I grab the food from the floor. "I have a mission to complete." I walk to the room of the band and knock on the door. I hear some male voices speak in a language I don't understand. A few seconds later the door opens.

"누구시죠?" The dude has cute eyes and freckles on his face. The background check that I did, taught me that he has the same name as my captain: Felix. Lee Felix.

"Yeah, I don't speak Korean, sorry."

"Oh, I asked who you are." His accent is most definitely from Australia.

"I'm Wanda Jones, the replacement of your previous personal guard." Wanda is the name of my best friend from when my parents were still alive. I always use that name when I go undercover.

"What happened to Mr Ahn?" I guess that's the guy I knocked out.

"He got sick."

"Really?"

"Yeah, he suddenly had really bad diarrhoea."

"Oh I see."

"I've brought some snacks..."

"Just let her in already! I'm hungry." I see Yang Jeong-In's head appear behind Lee Felix. This is going to be a long long night.


Felix' POV

I feel so bad for leaving Jess behind, but I have no other choice. I'm sitting in something like a VIP-box. To be honest, I am kind of nervous. This guy, Silas, really doesn't mess around. He's serious business.

"All clear here." Jake's post is next to the stage. Frank made a fake ID again.

"Everything looks clear from up here as well." 

"I'm so happy I'm not a sniper like you, Todd. I have the worst fear of height." 

"For the last time Frank: Don't eat while talking into the mic! It's disgusting to hear you smacking straight into my ear."

"Right, sorry Todd." I chuckle at the men. It must be hard for them to go on a mission without Jess and Woo-Bin.

The concert has begun a while ago and I can't lie: they're pretty good. The service here is also amazing. I just ordered a bottle of Soju, Korean alcohol. Come to think of it: it should've been here by now...

"Excuse me-" When I'm about to turn around I feel something hard against the back of my head.

"No captain; excuse me." 

Silas.


Jess' POV

I've been backstage, close to the boys, the entire time. Everyone enjoys the concert until there are screams coming from the hallway behind me. An alarm goes off. Silas. It has to be his doing. And I was right; Silas walks around the corner with the Captain in front of him. I quickly run on the stage to the boys. Most of the people have already left the stadium.

"Ms Jones! Come with us!" Yang Jeong-In runs to me. Even though the time I spent with those guys was short, I still had a blast. And they were so nice.

"Sorry, I can't. I'm not who you think I am."

"What do you mean?" I show him my military tag.

"My name is Jessica Jiraya from the U.S. Special Forces. Now leave before you get hurt." He stands very still, processing my real identity until Bang Chan pulls him with him off the stage together with the other boys.

"There you are, Jess. We've been looking for you." When I turn around, I see Silas with Felix.

"Let him go Silas."

"Fine." He pushes Felix to me and I catch him.

"Are you okay, captain?" He just nodds and stands up straight. "What do you want from me this time, Silas?"

"Where's the president?"

"Even if I knew, I wouldn't tell you."

"Don't worry, girl. When I motivate you, I'm sure you'll talk." He points the gun at Felix and before I realize it, he shoots him. Not again.
