"Seung-hyun..." I barely managed to utter his name before I swiftly opened the car doors and ran towards the motel. Youngbae was quick to follow but instead of going inside he grabbed me and pulled me back, preventing me from going inside. "Are you crazy? They're probably in there just waiting for us to burst in and kill us all! We need to get out of here!" he said. I ignored his words, struggling in his embrace and thinking only about Seung-hyun. "No, we can't leave him!" I cried out. I felt tears stinging the corner of my eyes. I have to save him, I promised to myself I'm going to save him! "Let me go!" I yelled. "Annabelle, we can't help him if we get inside now. Besides he... he might already be..." I know what he was struggling to say. But I wouldn't accept it, I couldn't accept it! "No!" I screamed back at him bearing my long fingernails in his hand but he didn't even flinch. Seung-hyun was not dead! I refuse to believe that! Youngbae started to drag me towards the car again, I tried to get away but I couldn't. I knew he was only trying to help but the thought of leaving Seung-hyun in there with all those murderers was too painful to even think about, I just couldn't leave him. Suddenly the doors of the motel opened up and a tall man with dark hair walked out pointing a gun at the two of us. Behind him was another man who was dragging Seung-hyun by his shoulder. I immediately felt relieved seeing he was still alive. When I noticed the gun that man was pointing at Seung-hyun I gasped, my body completely froze and my mind went blank. No, not this again, I thought as painful memories from a few months ago rushed back in my mind. Then, another person came out of the motel room followed by two other male assassins. It was a woman I recognized immediately, from Youngbae's detailed description of her and the photo I saw in the apartment in Rome. My eyes widened in disbelief. What? How? Youngbae let go of me and I watched him taking a step towards her with his eyes also wide open. But before he could approach any longer she pulled out a gun and pointed it at him. "Rina?" his tone was but a breath. He was in complete shock, and I had no idea what to do. For a second I even got angry because of the fact that people seemed to come back to life just to torture me and Seung-hyun. But I quickly dispersed that thought as I watched her make an evil grin and then burst into the most mischievous laugh I've ever heard. One of many thought that flew through my mind was that, whoever was standing in front of me was not the person Youngbae and Seung-hyun talked to me about. This one was evil, I could see it in her eyes, hear it in her laugh and even feel it all the way across the parking lot. Her laugh made my blood freeze in my veins, but still her perfect figure and beautiful face lineage was hard not to notice, and she even had beautifully long and wavy just the right way, black hair. Yeah, she may have looked like an angel, but she was certainly not on their team. I noticed she was looking at me, from head to toe, just like I was at her. Except her posture was way more confident and cocky while I was almost shaking from fear. "Annabelle!" she finally exclaimed after a long minute of silence. "It's so nice to finally meet you. I was wondering who the young lady was that snatched my Seung-hyun away from me. I have to admit, I was expecting something more...well, where do I start?" she said and laughed again. Her laugh and even her insult didn't quite sting me as the fact that she called Seung-hyun hers. A slight anger arose inside me and I wasn't going to let it slide. "Yeah, well I was expecting you to be a bit more dead!" I told her. It was a stupid comeback but my mind wasn't really clear at the moment. Suddenly Youngbae grabbed my wrist and squeezed it tightly, looking at me with hate. "Don't talk to her like that!" he yelled at me. My jaw dropped in shock. Did he not see what was going on here, the position we were in? She's the evil one, not me! But Rina just laughed again. I turned my eyes to Seung-hyun looking for support but he was looking at the ground in front of him with an undetectable expression. In fact, he didn't give me a single look or said a single word for the whole time we were standing here. He didn't even tell me to run or hide which was totally unusual for him. He always thought of me first, and now he seemed like he didn't even care. What was going on? I'm confused! This can't be happening, Seung-hyun's completely ignoring me and Youngbae turned against me? I could understand Youngbae's feelings, he loved Rina, even when he thought she was dead. It was probably hard for him to understand what was going on. But still, this isn't right! I mean, she's obviously with the Organization, and weren't we running for our lives from them just five minutes ago? So why were they acting so strange just because she appeared? I didn't even manage to understand this situation before other men were pointing guns at my and Youngbae's temple too. We were led each into one car and they drove us somewhere with our eyes covered. I had no idea where we were going and I couldn't understand the two men talking because they talked in Korean. I was sure though that both Seung-hyun and Youngbae had a pretty good idea where we're heading. I was also petrified to be separated from both of them and not able to see anything. I was just glad that I wasn't in the same car as Rina.
