"...three!"

The doors didn't open. "Three!" She repeated in exasperation. This time, the doors did open... behind them, on the wrong side of the tracks.

"Come on Ahjumma!" Hyejin griped.

"Oops, my bad." Mikyung corrects her mistake, this time the doors opened on the right side. Hyejin and their client leapt out the correct set of doors onto the tracks below, while the goons were locked out by closing doors.

Changwook took a quick peek at their expressions, always a step behind, he chuckled to himself.

Meanwhile, Hyejin was jogging down the tunnel with their client.

"The package."

"Excuse me?"

"Give me the package. I need to check if it's real." Sungchul firmed his grasp on the briefcase he was holding. "Ahjussi, haven't you heard of my name before? The reputation of executing the contract exactly to the tee, that Healer is me. 'Make the deposit after you check the package' is my motto, so please give me the package. The package must be checked before a deposit is made."

They client stopped running. "Please save me first. Then I'll give you the package," he fearfully begged Hyejin. This went against their policy and time was ticking.

Back on the train, the goons opened the doors by hitting the emergency button and leapt out of the carriage, continuing the chase. Changwook saw this and cursed to himself, can't they just give up already? Damn it. After he made sure that all of the goons were in the tunnel, he leapt down as well.

"Even if those punks catch us, I'm sure they won't kill... But... I think that just might happen in this case." Hyejin also silently cursed to herself as she saw the gang coming at them mighty quickly while looking back at the train. "We need to run."

"You have no idea what this is, do you?" Sungchul whimpered in fear.

"Ahjussi... I mean, dear client. Do not talk about the contents of the package."

"They're going to kill me! I'm going to die so please save me!"

"Ah shit, Ahjumma." Hyejin breathed in deeply and looked back at the gang. Ok, just this one time... "Get rid of the train. It's too bright."

"Get rid of the train, huh? Then of course, I'll get rid of it." She began to work her magic, which sent the subway train along. The light source was gone.

"Ah geez, I was enjoying the spot light for a moment!" Changwook said in annoyance as he ran along the tracks. He tried to keep a distance between him and the goons, just in case they noticed him.

The goons took out their flashlights once the tunnel went completely dark.

"Where are they? Follow them!" They rushed along quickly, shining their torches everywhere in attempt to find them. But the goons were in the light and Healer was in the dark...

Soon enough, Hyejin was able to employ her super-fly hand-to-hand moves and picked them off one at the time. Changwook just hid in the dark, observing the whole scene fold out, wishing that he had some popcorn with him. Who needs to go to movies to watch action scenes when you have one right here? Do you see teacher? You trained a fine pupil, other than me of course... Who would've thought that tiny peanut could beat up a bunch of gangsters?

The goons finally noticed that some of their men were down and soon discovered where Hyejin was. She was dragging the bodies of their men to the side of the track. They charged at her, but that was no use, Hyejin threw a few punches (they were pretty light for her, but that was enough to send a few of them flying) and flew her leg up to kick the neck of the other goon. Within 3 minutes, she had most of them down on the tracks, beating her record. Changwook was timing and nodded his head in approval at the decreasing time she used to defeat their opponents.
