Crimson Gold // ATEEZ

Chapter -11-

Yeri POV

I peek in and see two people with the twins now. They start to beat them up, making them too weak to escape. My jaw clenches seeing this.

"I'm going in."

I declare. Hongjoong starts to shout in my ear, saying things like,

"Yeri! If you step foot in that room I'm kicking you off the team!"

"Well, it was fun being with the team as short as it was."

He continues to shout as I enter the room.

I wriggle two knives loose from the knife sheath located on my thigh and throw them at the two guards, both of them drop to the ground, dead. I walk towards the children who are lying motionless in the middle of the room and kneel down to check them both for a pulse. I put my finger on the twins' neck and sigh in relief when I feel a slow, yet steady beat. Just before I pick the first twin up, a roaring boom echoes throughout the room as a soaring pain blossoms in my left shoulder. I look to my left and see 20 guards standing by a door in the corner of the room.

"Shit,"

I mutter. They all point their guns at me.

Welp, I'm for sure gonna die.

The window behind them shatters into a curtain of glass shards, slashing my injured arm. I turn my face away from the glass as penetrating screams of agony fill the room. I look back towards the guards to see 9 dead. Their own blood creating crimson pools around them. The rest of the guards have heavy lacerations covering every inch of exposed skin. I stare at their unrecognizable faces, cuts gushing red, as if eight devils are staring back at me. They lay next to the window with minimal movement. I retrieve my gun from my holster, and put bullets to their heads, assuring their death. The sniper who has cost them their lives continues to shoot, making the room bloodier than before. Anyone who puts a finger on a weapon gets a bullet to the head in return. All 20 of them, dead. I grab one of the twins and run out of the room.

"There's still one more twin in the room, fucking help me."

More shots are heard from the room.

"Do you really expect us to go in there?! The other twin is probably dead by now!"

Wooyoung screams to be heard.

"Well, what other choice do we have?!"

I retort.

"Let her die! We are not risking our lives for her!"

Yeosang yells over the gunshots. He looks at my arm and yells,

"You're injured! We got one of the twins, so let's go! You can't kill dozens of people with one arm!"

"I don't care if I'm injured! I'm getting her out! Either y'all help me or I'll do it on my own!"

I open the room's door to analyze what's going on. At least 30 guards are kneeling in the blood of their dead friends next to the window. They unsuccessfully try to shoot down the sniper who has been brutally killing them off. Each one of their failed attempts results in another death. As they fall to their death, another guard runs out from behind the door located in the corner and drags the deceased to the side of the room. They then take the place of the dead and continue to try to kill the sniper. Another two guards stand watch, making sure no one kidnaps the remaining twin. They continue to kick and prod at her while laughing as if a human's life is just a joke to them. I sigh out of frustration and shoot at the two guards. The rest of the guards turn around to face me and begin to shoot. I run in. Seonghwa's voice comes booming in my ear yelling,
