It was supposed to be an easy heist. In and out and then they were done. There was nothing else to worry about. Until they were cornered. Not even Wooyoung's swords or San's strength could get them out of this. 

"Wooyoung! San!" Seongwha tried to go down to them but Hongjoong grabbed his arm. There was nothing for them to do for their friends. 

"Hongjoong, let go! We have to get them out" Seongwha pleaded, fighting against Hongjoong. The captain didn't let go; in fact his grip only tightened. 

"They're gone, Seongwha. There's nothing we can do" Hongjoong pulled his love away, using all of his strength to do so. Who knew that Seongwha could be so stubborn when he wanted to? Hongjoong was selfishly glad that Yeosang was still absent from the crew and Jongho wasn't preoccupied with his own boyfriend and was able to help his captain with the first mate. Just before they disappeared, Hongjoong caught Wooyoung and San's eye and nodded. He knew that Wooyoung and San wouldn't want their friends putting themselves in a dangerous position for the couple. It was for the best of everyone involved if they just left. 

"Wooyoung?" San turned to him, ignoring the palace guards that surrounded them. Wooyoung leaned into him, closing his eyes. 

"I'm here love" Wooyoung whispered. Someone kicked the back of his legs and Wooyoung fell to his knees, hands twisted behind his back and tied together in a far too tight knot. San tried to get to him but found himself in the same predicament and then they were pulled to their feet and marched into the palace. 

"His name is Wooyoung?" One of the guards whispered. Wooyoung's ears perked up and he listened intently. He didn't see what was so interesting about his name but he was intrigued. If there was something, he wanted to know. 

"Wasn't that the-" Another one said, rubbing his arm when his colleague elbowed him. Two of them were walking with Wooyoung and another two with San.

"Shut up! We're not supposed to talk about it" The first one reminded his friend.. Wooyoung's curiosity grew. He looked over at San, but he hadn't heard anything and was actually looking pretty calm considering the situation they had found themselves in. Two cell doors were unlocked and Wooyoung's eyes widened. Him and San met eyes, realization dawning on them.

"Wait! No!" Wooyoung struggled, kicking and going limp. He did literally anything to get over to San but it was useless. Wooyoung was thrown into one of the wooden cells and the door locked. He heard San's door lock too and curled up in the corner, putting his head down. 

"Wooyoung!" San called but Wooyoung didn't respond. This whole thing was one messed up day and he couldn't wait for the others to show up and get them out of here. And there was still the matter of that strange conversation between the two palace guards. Actually, now that Wooyoung thought about it, the kingdom they had come to felt a bit familiar but Wooyoung knew that he hadn't been there with the crew or with the old Black Swan crew. And it had been over ten years since then so what could he possibly remember from this strange kingdom? One thing was for certain, Wooyoung would find out.  After all, if there was one thing he was good at, it was getting the truth out of people. And Wooyoung would not rest until he had it.
