"Calm down and tell us what's wrong" Yoongi said holding the boy close. "I should have told you guys about this long back. Remember when our Alesha drank all of Yoongi hyung's plum wine and in the end we found her half naked in the bathroom. That night under the running water something slid off her back. I told you guys not to enter because she was half-naked. But in reality it was because there were scars on her back under the fake skin. After she...passed away, I asked Ghost [Her close friend and ex] about it and he told me that the real reason he had taken his business to Korea was because he was investigating a camp with Alesha. " Jungkook narrated.

"What camp?" Jimin asked seemingly pissed. "A training camp located in Korea. Alesha had been there as a child and whoever gets in, gets marked. By a huge burning lump of metal. The mark gets redone every two months. She was forced in by a family member. She went in at the age of 7 and  ran off at the age of 15. She used fake skin to hide it." He completed. 

"She never told any of us, did she?" Jin mumbled and all eyes turned to Jimin. "Not even me" Jimin mumbled letting one tear trail off. Hoseok slightly patted his back but, they were all glum. "The camp doesn't let it's students out. They turn them into trained assassins. They turn them into mindless robots. And once they're brainwashed completely they're given missions. So, technically either the major investing families can let off a student of theirs or a student runs away and then gets hunted down" Jungkook mumbled. "So, the ones that attacked her was it him or was it this camp? She didn't come from an influential family" Namjoon questioned.

"I don't know. But, just now I saw the same mark on this Alesha's back. We have to help her out hyung. I don't know how. But, we have to" Jungkook concluded. "My little stupid bear" Taehyung whimpered. "How old was she when she passed away?" a cold voice pierced their conversation.

"When did you-?" Yoongi glared her down. "When he asked what camp" she pointed at Jimin. "Have we met before? I'm pretty sure I've seen you somewhere" she squinted her eyes at Taehyung. "I don't think so?"

"Seventeen. She was seventeen when she passed away" Jimin interrupted. "That's not possible. Either she is from an influential family or she is a ghost. You can barely live for a day if you're not. Two years is impossible" Alesha concluded. "But, I've met her family. Most of the members! They're all sweet and innocent and they're all white-collared workers." Hobi defended. 

"That's the family she introduced you to or the ones she considers family, not her blood-related family" Alesha retorted. "Are you telling me she lied to us?" Namjoon added silently. "No! She would never lie to us! She would never do that" Jimin burst out overwhelmed with emotions.

"I'm saying that even if she did, she did it to protect you." she shrugged. "Did she fear coming in the vision of the public?" she asked. "No, she was rather brave" Yoongi answered. "Then she belonged to an influential family. Only they can do that"

"But, if she did, then why did nobody recognize her? Our fans are from almost all corners of the world." Jin pointed out. "Probably a hidden heir. Like me" she answered. "What was her  name?"

"Alesha " Jungkook answered. "Same name .Cool. So I'll simply look up all influential people let off at the age of fifteen. And we'll know which family she came from" Alesha shrugged. "When did she pass away?" she asked. " It's been four to five months now" Hobi bit his lip. "How did you guys meet?"

"She was summoned .Accidentally" Namjoon let off a loose chuckle. "What is that even supposed to mean?" Alesha wondered out loud. "Hey wait! What about you? Why were you in the camp?" Jin interrupted. "I was sent there at the age of 4 and as my sister left the household completely. And they needed a replacement heir they called me back" she answered. "Are you sure we haven't met?" she turned to Taehyung. "I think so?" he answered unsure.

"I don't forget faces. Plus, we'll get my documents sorted today. I need to go to India as soon as possible" she reminded. "Why India? "Jimin asked. "Because, due to my harsh training, I barely have memories from before but, as far as I know I was raised in India by another family. But, due to some reason, the forgotten child aka me was sent to the camp out of nowhere." she answered. "I might find answers there. Answers as to why my father changed so drastically overnight. Or why were we all treated this way. Why my sister that was said to love me dearly let me be taken away for imprisonment or why she died" she elaborated.
