Undo the chains

-How could you let him go? Are you mental? Do you know what they will do to him? Ryujin shouted at Bang Chan.

She was beyond mad after finding out Jisung was missing.

-He went by himself. I had no idea...

-Stop making excuses and try to fucking get him back!

-I will! he raised his voice. We're going to Netherlands right now. Where is Seungmin?

-He can't come with us, Jeongin chimed in.

They all turned their heads towards him in confusion.

-What do you mean? Chan asked.

-He has the virus. I had to put him to sleep in order to slow down the process.

-What? You should have told me beforwhand. You should have asked me.

-He was dying! Jeongin spat back at his boyfriend. I know how scared he was. I went through the same pain. And no one was there for me! At least he is with Changbin hyung now. He will be safe as long as he doesn't wake up. And with all the respect, leader, I am the doctor and I should be in charge of the members' health.

Everyone in the room went silent.

They knew Chan wouldn't even dare raise a fist at his boyfriend.

That's what made Jeongin so powerful.

He was the one who could tell the truth straightforward without any outcome. He was the one keeping the balance.

-Then...Chan coughed anxiously. Then we can't live without them.

-We can. Can you take care of them? he asked Jongho who was leaning on the wall.

The latter looked at Seonghwa for approbation, then nodded.

-Chris, Jeongin took his hands. This is the only way. We go to Netherlands, we save Jisung, he makes the antidote and we bring it to Seungmin. This way no one dies. Isn't this what you wanted? To keep us all alive.

-Do you think we can do it this time?

-Jisung is a tough guy. If I survived there, he can as well. And Seungmin is too stubborn to die. Trust me on this, alright? You know me. I want the best for this team. Just like you.

-Fine. Pack your things. We're leaving in an hour, he ordered.

-Aren't you packing? Jeongin asked seeing Chaeryeong laying in bed.

-Chan talked to Yeji. We're staying here to keep an eye on your friends. However, Ryujin insisted on going with you. She wants to save her brother.

-Understandable.

-I know he reached to you.

Jeongin stopped folding his clothes and looked at her.

-He's glad you picked his side.

-I didn't pick any side. I am returning a favour.

-Whatever you want to call it... He is thrilled to have you. It will be over soon. I can feel it.

-I doubt it. Did he tell you what is he gonna do to Chris?

-Not yet. We'll see.

-I still don't understand why is he doing this.

-You will. He has all the right in the world to do it. Believe me.

-How long? For how long will you chasing them? Seonghwa asked with his arms crossed.
