Aera and Elijah had arrived at where their Aunt JJ and uncles lived. Aera pulled into the driveway of their house, Elijah following his big sister up to the front door.

She knocked a few times, hoping one of them would answer soon. She glanced at her little brother beside her, seeing he was still a bit shaken up from what had just happened. She was still in shock herself. She wondered if this is how her Appa feels after committing to such an action.

The door opened, revealing Jada in one of Taehyung's shirts and a bonnet on her head. Her face quickly changed into an expression of worry and concern for her niece and nephew.

"Oh my babies what happened?", she gasped lightly, bringing them into her arms. She noticed that Aera had the gun in her hands, more questions filling her head by the minute.

She brought them inside, examining both of them to make sure they weren't hurt anywhere.

She had them sit down, bringing them cups of honey tea and blankets.

"Can you guys tell me what happened? Did something try to hurt you?", she questioned as she brought in more blankets.

"These two men", Aera let out a shaky sigh as she tried to hold back tears of fear. "They broke into the house and I shot one of them before they could get to us".

"Oh love", Jada cooed, bringing the two of them into warm hugs. She could feel their tears soaking her shirt.

"I'm just glad you two are okay, you did the right thing Aera you hear me? Don't think for one second that what you did was wrong, you protected yourself and you protected your brother", Jada reassured the girl, wiping away her tears with her thumbs.

Aera nodded as sniffles left her nose. "Okay, thank you Aunt JJ".

"You okay bud? Look at aunt JJ", Elijah obeyed his aunt, looking at her with glossy eyes.

"Your so brave, and you stuck by your sisters side just like your supposed to. And you're supposed to, just like your Dad", Elijah nodded at her words, more tears falling. She continued holding the two of them like they would disappear any minute.

Jimin and Armani had made their way over there, holding her two kids with her life. They all equally shared tears, Mani happy that their two babies were safe in their Aunts home.

"So, we know one of the men's names was Min-gi ", Namjoon pointed out.

"That name sounds familiar", Yoongi mumbled, trying to remember when or where he heard of that name.

"Ah!" Tae suddenly spoke, catching everyone's attention. "He's from Wooyungs team, we met them at a dinner party a few years back", everyone suddenly felt lightbulbs go off in their heads, remembering the man and his team.

They had attended a dinner party a few years ago, and met Wooyoung and his team. They weren't the ideal group of people for the boys, but they still remained respectful.

"But what would they want with Aera and Elijah though? How do they even know about them?", Armani questioned.

"Worst case scenario Wooyoung could've sent out his men to spy on them, around there school and the house", Jungkook suggested, the boys agreeing.

"So", Jimin sighed. "Our next move is to try and locate his base and figure out what they want with us. Jungkook and Tae, sometime tomorrow we need to work on that", the two boys nodding at his words.

"Namjoon hyung, you guys stay on alert and if you spot any of his men in the city or around here let me know. We're connected to the city cameras aren't we?".

"Yep, we're on it", Joon nodded.

Aera sat there in the couch, admiring her Appa and uncles. She admitted how direct and strong headed they were. She wanted to be like that, if not at least decent.

That night, Aera twisted and turned in her bed. She couldn't bring herself to fall asleep, and she knew why. The gun, the gun firing and the bullet going through that man. The blood that flooded the floor but was cleaned up by the maids. It was all so much, so much to remember. She wished she could forget it, that it wouldn't keep playing over and over again in her head.

Jimin doesn't even know who shot the man, everyone too caught in the moment to ask them or Jada. Guilt weighed heavy in her heart, and it was an odd and painful feeling.

She eventually gave up, sighing as she crawled out of bed. She slid on her light pink slippers and walked to her Appa's office.

She toke timid steps to the door, knocking softly to not be too noisy.

"Yes?" He replied, looking up from his laptop. Aera walked in, a grin forming on his face.

"Oh, hi love", he greeted sweetly, removing his glasses. "Can't sleep?".
She shakes her head no, sitting down on a little sofa across from him.
"Is something on your mind? Is it about what happened today", she nodded, finally making eye contact with him.

"I...I'm the one who shot Min-gi", she confessed, seeing his face soften at her confession. He was surprised, maybe a little proud too. He gets up and walks over to her, squatting down in front of her with her hands in his.

"Baby listen to Appa", he started, speaking to her in a gentle tone. "You are something special, you and your brother. Me and your mama knew the two of you would do great things when you grew older, we still do. But today, this was new to you and it's left bad after affects on you. I've been through the same thing, and it haunted me every time I looked down and saw my hands were covered in blood. Blood of someone I would never see again", he spoke, his voice saddening.

"But that doesn't make me bad or an awful person. I do what I do to protect people and you did what you did to protect you and your brother. Your still my little blossom, you hear me?", she nodded, letting her tears fall.

He brought her into his arms, letting her cry it out. He hated that she had experienced something she wasn't near prepared for. Something that would take some time to get over.

"Did you get him good?", he questioned suddenly, hearing her muffled giggles.

"I tried, I aimed for his leg", she replied.

"Then, Appa will just have to teach you huh", Aera lightened up a bit at that, nodding with a little smile.

"That's my girl".
