Double Agents

Chapter 1

Baekhyun stood against the wall of the bank as he looked down at the phone, one headphone in his ear as he softly moved his head to the rhythm. Stuffing one hand into the pocket of his navy, blue hoodie, he let out a sigh. Looking up, he watched as the normal people in front of him walked quickly through the plaza, each having somewhere to be in the busy downtown area.

"Are we sure they're having the deal here?" he asked himself, just loud enough so that the earpiece he had in his ear could hear him. He rolled his eyes as he automatically heard a deep sigh fill his eardrums. "Would you get away from the microphone?! I'm going to go deaf before we get done with this."

"Sorry Baek," Xiumin's lighter voice chimed in. "This is why I said you should have Chanyeol out there with you in the first place."

"I can do this by myself. He wouldn't be doing anything"

"Do you really think he's doing anymore sitting here with me?"

"You guys know I'm still here right?" a voice said in the distance. The sound of his teammate's whine made him roll his eyes, something to his left caught his eye. He watched as a man in a business suit walked through the plaza, his eyes looking around as if watching out for someone. Baekhyun slowly leaned off the walk and began to follow the man from a distance, watching his every move.

"I think I found him guys," Baekhyun says.

"Where?"

"In the plaza, going towards the park. Tall. Brown hair. Expensive Navy Suit."

"Sounds like my kind of guy!" a happy voice said.

"Shut up Tao," a deeper voice interrupted.

"Keep trailing him Baek," Suho instructed. "Luhan, you and Sehun try to intervene."

"Sehun isn't here remember?"

"He isn't here? Where did he go?"

"Someplace with Kai, I bet," Kyungsoo said. "I'll be there." Listening to the instructions given to him, Baekhyun began casually walking behind the man, making sure to stay a few feet away from him. Moments passed and Kyungsoo was at his side, both of them walking intensely behind the man until he stopped.

"Do you think--" Baekhyun was about to ask when the man suddenly began to run.

"I think he does," Kyungsoo said before the two began running as well. "He's on the run."

"Where is he headed?"

"Towards the main street," Baekhyun answered. The two chased after him as he pushed people in their way, trying to slow them down. They continued to follow him getting close enough to grab his arm only for the man to turn and throw the briefcase at the two boys, hitting Kyungsoo in the face.

"Fuck," the shorter man said, holding his nose.

"Soo!"

"Keep following him," Kyungsoo said, not looking up. Baekhyun looked at his friend as he felt a hand on his shoulder. The man looked up to see his taller counterpart.

"Come on, before he gets away," Chanyeol said. He looked around to see the man still running, tripping over himself before looking back, and seeing Luhan running towards them, also yelling at him to run ahead. Knowing the right thing, Baekhyun got up and began to chase after the man at full speed, Chanyeol not too far behind him.

"Nothing was in the briefcase, " Chanyeol said. "So whatever it is, he still has it." The information made him run faster until he was stopped by the same arm that got him to run in the first place.

"What?" he asked, before feeling the wind blow on his face from a passing car. Reality hit him as he realized they had stopped right at an intersection, cars moving from every direction.

"Sorry," Chanyeol said. "I didn't want you to get crushed." The two both looked across the road, not seeing the man anywhere.

"He got away," Baekhyun said over his earpiece.

"Not exactly!" a new voice chimed in. The two boys looked at each other before hearing their names yelled from across the road. They turned only to spot their tall tan friend walking alongside their slightly shorter poker-faced one, both holding the arms of the suited man.

"Are you sure you're fine Soo?" Kai asked, walking beside the other, worried. Kyungsoo rolled his eyes as they walked through the tight hallway, the two of them being the only ones able to fit at that time.

"Yes, I'm fine Kai," Kyungsoo said. "I just got hit in the face, not shot. I'm fine." The two took a sharp turn into a room, finding their fellow sitting around.

"Look who's late again," Chen said, laughing a little before getting hit by Lay who sat beside him. Kai completely ignored his comment

"I'm just saying," Kai said. "We don't know if there was some internal damage that happened."

"You were literally just at the infirmary with me," Kyungsoo said, taking a seat. "Like you actually just asked the doctor that exact question and she said no. Nothing is wrong with me. I'm fine."

"Stop babying him Kai," Baekhyun said. "At least he was at the mission on time."

"Excuse me," Sehun interrupted. "We had perfect timing, thank you very much. We're the ones actually caught the guy remember?"

"We probably would've caught the guy if you were on time too," Luhan said.

"What were you guys even doing that made you late?" Tao asked.

"Does that really matter?" Sehun said.

"Yeah. The fact is that we caught the guy so it's a win-win." Chen commented.

"And you're really the last one to be talking about babying anyone," Kai said.

"What are you talking about?"

"Didn't you keep Chanyeol in the van just because he got hit in the head a couple of times?" Kai said.

"That's why I had to stay back?"

"Dude!" Xiumin said a little annoyed. "He almost messed up all my equipment!"

"I sat there... That's all I did," Chanyeol said.

"Why are you all yelling so much?" Chen asked.

"It's not because he got hit, it's because he's always being too reckless."

"Says the one who almost ran into the road."

"Because I was trying to catch the guy!"

"Because you were too worried about Kyungsoo just because he got hit in the face," Chanyeol yelled.

"Hey! It hurt! Don't blame him for worrying about his friend."

"I knew you were hurt!" The group began to bicker amongst each other, talking about how they were late and unfocused and blaming each other for basically nothing. Lay watched from the corner, wondering how things must've been during the actual mission if this was the outcome. He only got up when he heard the door open, knowing the two missing men were the only ones that could be there.

"What are you all fighting about?" Kris yelled over the rabble, stopping everything for only moments before the bickering became rabbles of pointing fingers.

"Hey Hey Hey," Suho said, trying to calm his friends. "Now isn't the time for this. We have more important matters to deal with."

"We have another lead," Kris stated, "And we are teaming up."

"With whom?" Baekhyun asked. Kris and Suho gave each other a worried look before walking fully into the room, the three boys behind them revealing their smirks and chuckles as the others looked in awe.
