Always Been You [EXO Series Book One]

Chapter Twenty One

Chapter Twenty-One [edited]

Luhan POV

Wow. Oh my God. I was nervous and excited at the same time.

My first time in a 'warzone' with no fighting skills but perfect aiming skills. Is this James Bond now? Should I change my name to Lu Bond?

Wait, James Bond is a playboy. Oh my God, I am not a playboy. I think I'll just stick with being myself.

We were waiting for Team A's signal. They had a few of the female agents dressed up sexily to trick the guards while the others deactivate every single security camera.

Team B was standing outside, also waiting for Team A's signal since they were backing us up.

I was playing with the gun that Mikaela gave me, careful not to touch the silencer and trigger when I saw flashlights flashing.

I quickly slid my gun back into the gun holder that was hooked onto my belt and followed Mikaela.

Team B was separated into two groups. One to lead us, the other to protect us from behind. I followed Mikaela closely, careful not to get caught since I couldn't fight.

We reached the second flight of stairs when Mikaela held up her hand, signaling us to stop. She pointed her fore-finger to the darkest corner at the bottom of the stairs.

She herself slid out her gun, aimed at the camera and shoot. It hit bullseye and we continued.

I was a nervous by the time we had reached the hallway to ten doors that they said one of them contained Vanessa, Sehun and Baekhyun.

Mikaela stopped us once again and she slid her gun back in. She tied her hair up in a bun and asked Elisa to hand her a can of spray.

She sprayed the entire hallway and my eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets. Lasers coming from every direction were trapping us from moving to the last door at the end.

She passed the can back to Elisa and made sure her guns and bullets weren't dangling. She walked forward and took a deep breath.

I prayed to God once more that she would make it through successfully and deactivate the lasers.

She passed through the lasers quickly and swiftly. She pressed onto a button near the last door of the hallway and the lasers were gone.

She beckoned us to move quickly and she pulled her the rubber band that was tied on to secure her hair bun. She took two hairpins from her belt and began to unlock the door.

She done it in 30 seconds and we opened the door slowly. She gave instructions that I was to stay with the others while she, Julius and Elisa went in to save them.

I nodded, knowing that this was a very dangerous mission and I was only here because I love Vanessa and can shoot perfectly.

Dear God, please let there be light.

Vanessa POV

I was watching the two resting after they had something to eat. Luckily I wasn't that hungry tonight and Trevor had bought lots of food before they came.

I smiled at their sleeping forms and decided to take a nap myself when I heard some shuffling. The door to the room opened silently and I waited.

I eyed the security camera in the corner opposite me. I then looked towards the entrance to the room.

I silently gasped when I saw Mikaela, Julius and Elisa coming through the door. They smiled and sighed lightly when they saw me and the boys.

I looked to Mikaela and gave her a there's-a-security-camera-in-this-room expression. She immediately understood and looked to all four corners of the room.

She finally spotted the camera and took her gun out. She aimed at it and shot. The camera had a burning smell and the red dot was immediately gone.

I smiled and got up. I ran to Mikaela and gave her a big hug. I did the same to both Elisa and Julius. Sehun and Baekhyun got up and rubbed their eyes when they heard sounds.

They were about to yell in happiness when Mikaela signaled them to keep quiet. She led us out and I smiled when I saw Luhan.

He looked so good in that SWAT uniform. So yummy that I just want to eat him. Gosh, that sounds so wrong. I blushed as I shook that thought away.

Luhan hugged his two brothers and came to me.

"Hey."

"Hey yourself."

"Are you alright?"

"I should be asking you that. This must have been so dangerous. You could have been killed."

"Oh, I know. But I'll do anything for you, Vanessa. Even if it was my last breath, I would still save you."

I blushed and hugged him. He placed his gun back into his gun holder and hugged me back.

"Well, well, well. Look what we have here."

I pulled away from Luhan and saw Samantha standing in front of us.

"Didn't you miss me, Mikaela? Why bring so many people to play?" She smirked and crossed her arms.

The SWAT agents immediately formed a circle around me, Sehun and Baekhyun. Luhan was somewhere in between us and the agents, taking his gun out and aiming at Evans' people.

Oh, he looked even more yum- Wait, he can shoot?!

Luhan POV

The enemy, or should I say, Mikaela and Vanessa's ex-best friend, Samantha Evans was our target. She seemed to have known about us coming and our field plot, but I shook that thought away.

I saw Evans nodded slightly to the her people and Mikaela gave us the signal. We weren't going to run away anymore, we'll fight until either side's leaders pass out.

While the other agents are fighting against Evans' people, Mikaela gave us brief instructions.

"Jason, you bring along five other agents including Luhan and take Vanessa, Sehun and Baekhyun to the van. We'll be there as soon as its finished. Tell Jordan to bring a few of his people in. Move now!"

We nodded and I immediately followed Jason and the others to the van. I made sure to keep my gun out and safely held so I won't shoot someone by accident.

I quickly followed them. But after a short distance, I made myself follow them slower and ran to help Mikaela.

The second I got there, I saw numerous SWAT agents and Evans' people lying on the floor, either dead or unconscious. I looked around and searched for Mikaela.

She was fighting someone and wasn't noticing Evans creeping up behind her and aiming the gun to her head. I panicked and quickly aimed my own gun at Evans' arm and shot.

The bullet shot out of my gun and hit straight at Evans' arm. She dropped her gun and clutched her arm immediately.

Mikaela, who had just finished fighting the person, turned and looked at Evans. She then looked around and spotted me. She frowned and gave her attention back to Evans.

But she was too late. Evans had aimed her gun at Mikaela.
