MISANTHROPIC | pjm. [COMPLETED]

Chapter Thirty-Two

"Get him out of here," I coughed, making my way to Aika and patting her on the shoulder. I had to shout, because suddenly, all I could hear were gunshots. But they weren't landing very well - after all, I don't recommend using guns in smoke. 

"Here," Yoosung said lowly, pulling another door open. Everyone managed to get out, but the shooting didn't stop. 

"I'll take him now." Aika informed. I nodded and flashed Jimin a reassuring smile, and they were off. Though we could just escape - it was something we shouldn't be doing. Everything wouldn't stop if I just ran away again. 

"Are we gonna kill them?" I turned my head to look at Yoosung. 

"Or we can just get them to jail." I told him about how I was going to quit being an assassin; and it warmed my heart to actually realise he was supporting me on that. "Erika's trap will be a good way for them to not escape." 

I've never did a mission with Yoosung before, but we had plenty of cooperation. 

"But they are trying to kill us," he pointed out. Before I even got to reply, his eyes widened, and he pulled out his tranquilizer gun, placing a hand on my shoulder and shooting a man behind me. "I guess we're sticking with the tranquilizer guns, then." 

"Our main target's your father." I explained, turning to a corner and stopping, since the gunshots have now become louder, signalling that they were now out of the room. "We have to get through the men and then knock him out. The police'll know his identity, right?" 

Yoosung nodded, "I think I'll make use of the explosives I have now," he said, as we heard footsteps come closer. It took me a while to realise what kind of explosives he had, but when two men saw us, he made me look away and throw the grenade. 

I took the opportunity to move away, realising it was a flash grenade. "Clear," he whispered. I pushed myself off from the wall. 

"Where would Misery be?" I questioned. 

"There." he pointed to the farthest room in the second floor with a white door. "And I think we're gonna have to worry - or else he'll throw much more dangerous explosives." 

"Would Erika be done by now?" I asked. He flashed me a confused look, and fastened his pace. By the stairs, there was plenty of smoke. But the shooting didn't stop. I tried to shoot basing on where the sound was coming from, though it was difficult. 

"Erika, are you done?" Yoosung said in the earpiece. 

It took her a while to answer, "Almost. Almost," she replied. "I hear gunshots. What happened? Are you guys alright?" her voice was echoing, which meant that she really was still in the vents and attaching the strings. 

"We're alright." I reassured. "We're after Misery. You're gonna have to finish the trap much earlier than expected." 

"Shit, alright." she cursed. I didn't know everything would go by this fast - maybe because I grew impatient. I felt bad, but I couldn't just sit there and know that Jimin was getting hurt. 

We were so close to getting to the door. Yoosung was about to unlock it, until I heard the sound of guns locking. From the smoke, a familiar man revealed himself. 

"Hyung," Yoosung sighed. My eyes widened a bit, realising it was Hojun, Yoosung's older brother that he always looked up to when we were children. It was because he was sensational in martial arts. "Step back." 

Hojun scoffed and pointed two handguns at me and Yoosung. "What the fuck are you doing? Betraying your own blood?" 

"He killed mother," Yoosung pointed out.
