"I don't think I've properly introduced myself yet," Yoongi's girlfriend said to me when the conversation over dinner table stirred her way, "My name is Oh Eunjung, an executive and second in command of FIRE."

I had to stop myself from raising an eyebrow as I had assumed this stunning woman just to be Yoongi's girlfriend, not a top dog of FIRE. "Hello."

A knowing smile appeared on her face, and she continued, "Its regretful what happened. But don't worry, you'll be safe in Yoongi's and my proection from now on."

"Thank you." For some reason, I was a bit shy under her steady gaze. "About what Jungkook said... Minjun was in Bludhood, and members of FIRE killed him."

"Yes, about that," Yoongi started, "Yerin, you were attacked near the safe house that Jungkook told you to go to?"

I nodded, "Just around the corner."

A smile, with something close to menace, appeared on his face, "Good. That was our territory, and a member or Bludhood attacked one of FIRE there."

"Why is it good?" Taehyung suddenly asked, still chewing some food.

"Because I finally have a reason to declare war on them." Yoongi said.

"But why do you need a reason?" Taehyung asked again, "FIRE is powerful, right? You can just attack Bludhood whenever you want?"

Something changed within Yoongi's expression, "Why are you so interested?"

Taehyung stopped chewing and swallowed. "Um...I was just curious."

Yoongi put on a smile to mask what he was thinking, "Right.

Seeing the tension, I decided to say something, "So Yoongi, what do you mean declaring war?"

"I mean I'm going to obliterate them," he said, "they've been a nuisance long enough."

"But if you kill a lot of them, won't the police intervene?" I asked.

"Well, FIRE is a company on the surface world as well as a gang in the underworld,"
Yoongi explained, "We pay the government a lot of 'taxes', so they turn a blind eye on us. But Bludhood can't do that because they are not rich enough to pay or even to set up a believable company."

"That's cool," I said.

After dinner finished Taehyung
was preparing to leave. I went to say goodbye to him and thank him once again for helping with my rescue.

"Taehyung," I called out as I arrived at the front hall of Yoongi's mansion.

He stood back up from tying his shoelace, "Yerin?"

"I just want to thank you again," I said, "If it wasn't for you I would... still be there."

He grinned widely, "Don't worry about it! I'm just helping my friend!"

I smile back, "It's very late now. You should hurry home so your family don't worry."

He smile faded a little, "I don't have a family."

My brows furrowed. "Oh I'm sorry. I didn't know."

"Don't you know, Yerin? Everyone in our training group are orphans." He said.
