"Minho. When you see Yura you know what you have to do." Bangchan's voice is short and direct.

He and Minho have been going back and forth about what happened on their mission last month, despite getting shot, Chan knew the words Minho used at Yura were uncalled for and not his friend's true character.

Minho also knew his blow-up was unnecessary, and before Bangchan had a chance to lay into him, Jisung beat him to the punch. Pointing out how quick to anger Minho was when it came to his close friend, and he as well as everyone else was just tired of the long-lasting feud. Minho had no idea that Yura had run into a slew of guards on her way back to the van, fighting and defending herself alone took most of her energy and when she arrived back at the van all she was met with were rounds of insults and a dying teammate.

"Yeah." he answers in return, not really looking Bangchan's way.

Jisung moves to stand by Minho's side. His hand grazes his partners lightly as he points out the different schools that are joining them today, keeping his stewing boyfriend occupied as they move up the bleachers and into their seats.

The jumbo screen behind the larger mat lights up, displaying the golden tournament day symbol that's been used over the past few years. The bleachers were full of students from all over the district, most of the people here have trained all year long to be placed in the brackets for the tournament today. Leaving first place in your ranked group was a great honor for your school to go home with, especially the bragging rights that came with it.

The crowd begins to quiet down as four figures walk up to the center of the arena.

Dressed in a black t-shirt and dark gray leggings with simple combat boots was the head trainer of 2ne1's school for assassins, Moonbyul. Her light gray hair was tied back into a braided ponytail as her daughter, Choi Yura, stood to her right in her gear from this morning. Both of their shirts had their school emblems pinned to their right.

On Moonbyul's left stood Headmaster Taecyeon of 2pm's school for potential agents. He's in similar clothes to stray kids, except his pants are the light gray that matches Moonbyul's. To his left stood 2pm's lead combat agent, also dubbed as the school's "Punisher", Seo Changbin. As his school's recent top competitor graduate, he was required to be by his headmaster's side to oversee the battles he used to compete in not too long ago.

"Unnie, you're matching~" Yura whispers to Byul, wiggling her eyebrows referencing a long-time joke about her mom and the Headmaster.

Though she towers over her guardian at the moment, Moonbyul doesn't hesitate to pinch her side, still having to parent her 19-year-old child.

"Will you be serious for once, Yuyu." The girl does nothing but shift away from her scolding mom with a giggle, leaving Byul with a small smile on her own face.

From above, Jisung notices Yura's small moment with her guardian and has a smile of his own. Knowing Yura's rocky history growing up in this school. He's glad to see that at least her relationship with Professor Byul hasn't changed.
