August 1 Friday

Yoongi did not leave until Head Guardian KeonHo and his appa, Leader Jeon came and forced him to return to the pack house. And even then, the only way he gave in was if Jungkook stayed to keep an eye on the place in his stead. He only was gone long enough to take a shower and eat a full meal Thursday afternoon. Then he went right back to his hiding spot.

The area was under heavy surveillance with guardians and warriors from both packs watching. Good thing the kidnappers were amateurs. They were not being careful at all and were easy to follow undetected. They had no problem finding the access road the perpetrators used and locating where the other two people were living.

They also ran background checks on all 3. G-Dragon was 34 years old and had a few battery charges on his record. He basically was a small-time thug working for a loan shark. Hyojong and HyunA had no record at all. They were 28 and 30 years old and living in the Pine Forest pack village. HyunA with her halmeoni since her parents moved out of the country after she graduated high school, working at a department store in the mall. And Hyojong still living with his parents. He had a job working at a nearby gas station as an attendant.

After KeonHo reported it to the elders. The elders, in turn, reported it to the NIS (National Intelligence Service) since it involved the auction where who knows how many kidnapped omegas are being held against their will. The humans were not aware that the NIS had a separate department that specialized in shapeshifters. The human and werewolf agents worked together in that department for crimes that were too big for the elders or where humans were involved in order to maintain the secrecy of the werewolf life. Of course, the government of any country, not just Korea, did not want its citizens to know that werewolves and other supernaturals existedand had their own specialized agencies to take care of that.

Apparently, this omega auction has been occurring once a year for the past 3 years. NIS needed to stop this since it involves kidnapping and trafficking omegas, some of which were under the age of 10. It also involved some humans who were actively participating in either the kidnapping of omegas in their cities or purchasing omegas during the auctions. This was the big problem that Leader Jeon had told Jungkook about over the phone the day of the feast. Every leader of every pack had been notified of the kidnapping of omegas and asked for cooperation in the investigation. Black Lotus Pack got its notification 2 weeks before the boys were scheduled to return home. The Pine Forest Pack got notified a week after Jimin got kidnapped.

Now because of NIS getting involved, they were forced to wait until the kidnappers took the hostages so they could follow the van to the auction location. Yoongi tried to be reasonable, he understood the need to arrest all the players and save all the omegas from the auction, but all he cared about was freeing HIS omega. The one that was right in front of him, and he could not do anything about it. It was hard for all of them to sit and wait the 3 days until Saturday morning when the perpetrators planned on moving the omegas.

Yoongi kept constant communication with Jimin through their mind link. He told Jimin not to drink or eat anything the abductor give them, especially on Friday. The food and drink that was already there were safe. He told Jimin about the NIS involvement and everything they were working on to free all the omegas that had been kidnapped. Yoongi told Jimin to be patient, no matter what, he would get Jimin out. He reminded Jimin not to tell anyone at the risk of being overheard. They didn't know if there were cameras or microphones in the room, and they didn't want to tip off the criminals.

Finally, Friday night came around, Yoongi and the other hidden guardians watched as the white van backed up to the rock entrance. HyunA and Hyojong unloaded covered take-out boxes for food while G-Dragon unlocked and opened the doors. From inside, Jimin watched the pair put the food on the table and open the boxes. There was rice, bulgogi (beef tenderloin) , samgyeopsal (grilled pork belly) and tteokbokki (rice cakes). Jimin's stomach rumbled at the delicious smells that filled the room.
