"Good morning," I smiled at the boys. I place my bag on the floor of of the dance studio, "noona, are you feeling alright today?" Siwon ask.
I look up at him, "yes Oppa, fighting!" Siwon laughs, "fighting." He pats my back and we turn to the boys. "Is everybody here?" I ask.
"Yes..." Lee Teuk walks in, "you're late." Siwon points out. "It's okay, we can start straight away." Lee Teuk grins.
We hear the helicopter pass us, and then heavy footsteps above us. "What is going on?" Sungmin looks to the ceiling.
I look out the window and look at the building opposite of us, "Oppa!" I pull Siwon to the side. The small knife cuts my face and hits the mirror.
The mirror shatters to the ground, "your face is bleeding!" Yesung makes his way to me. "No, lets leave the place." I grab his wrist and pull him along with me.
"Lets go," I lead the way to the emergency exit. "Yah, Baek Chae-Won!"
I snap my head to the top of the stairs to see no one, it sounded like Chan-Yeol.
"What are you doing?" Hee-Chul put his hand on my back, Yesung drags me down the stairs.
"There was nothing." I muttered when we reach the first floor, "are you hurt?" I turn to Siwon. "Noona, you're hurt!" Donghae points to my face.
"You're dead, your face is important to the public." Hee-Chul murmurs, "ahh..." I glare at him.
"Lets go get you fixed up..." Hee-Chuck changes the subject, "do I have to pay for the window and the mirror?" I ask in a low tone.
"No, it's okay." Lee Teuk laughs. "Why do you ask that?" Yesung questions.
"The person is trying to kill me by killing my loved ones first." I stated. Yesung makes me sit down on a bench, "what do we do?" Eunhyuk stares at me.
I smiled, "go get a first aid kit, and we need to clean up the blood on my face first."
"I will get the first aid kit," Yesung quickly says. "I will stay here for moral support." Eunhyuk grabs my hand, "yah." Hee-Chul slaps his hand away.
"Noona, does it hurt?" Kyuhyun steps forward, "no." I shrug.
"The next dance practice will be held at The Skulls' dance studio, it will be more safe... I think." I bite on the bottom of my lip.

I met up with Chang-Min to fly over to Lady Heather's office. "Your face—"
"I accidentally cut myself." I smiled and board the helicopter. "How do you cut yourself?!" Chang-Min furrows his eyebrows and got into the helicopter.
We put on the headsets, "you know how clumsy I am." I chuckle nervously.
"How did the dance practice went today?" Chang-Min then ask.
"It went good." We took off from the rooftop, "Chae-Won ah."
"What is it, Oppa?"
"I have known you for 22 years, who are you lying to?"
I scratch the back of my head, "we will talk when we reach the headquarters."
We land on the top of the building and was greeted by the workers. We took the elevator down to Lady Heather's office.
"You guys are here..." Lady Heather looks up from phone. Chang-Min and I took a seat, "The Skulls has 5 official strikes and the superior is reconsidering your position as The Skulls' boss."
"Sorry, I thought we only have 3 strikes. Chelsea and Haneul, Chelsea and the two boys, Kathy and Kyuhyun." Chang-Min puts his hand up.
"Before Chelsea and Haneul, Layla and Baek Chan-Yeol was spotted kissing." Lady Heather informs us, Chang-Min and I look at each other with surprise.
"And for a period of time, Kayla was dating Chang-Min." I put my hand over my mouth, "Chae-Won—"
"Don't talk to me," I snap at him. "I am looking to buy The Skulls' company." Lady Heather then says.
"Till the day I die, I will never ever handover the company to someone I don't trust." I look into her clear blue eyes. Lady Heather ignores my remark and put a paper in front of us.
"After your tour, you both will be sent back to United States for two years. You will help to recruit more workers for my company."
Chang-Min abruptly stands up from the chair, "I am not finished." Lady Heather glares at him. "The Skulls will never see Super Junior after this tour ever again or The Skulls and Super Junior will be assassinated." Lady Heather warns us.
I grab Chang-Min's wrist, "that's all I have for you both." Lady Heather flashes us a smile.
Flashback
Chan-Yeol and I run towards the bridge where we will meet Jae-Hwan and runaway from the men dressed in black. We do not know who are they but they just started attacking us out of nowhere.
"Baek Chae-Won!"
I pick up my speed and run past Chan-Yeol, I hear the gun reloaded. "Oppa!" Chan-Yeol falls to the ground.
"Yah!" Jae-Hwan grabs my hand, I look at my brother's lifeless body and then the shooter's wrinkly hand. He has a gold ring with a small pearl.
End of Flashback
I look down at Lady Heather's hands, "Lady Heather." I held onto Chang-Min's hand tightly.
"Did you kill my three brothers?"
Lady Heather burst out laughing, and so did Chang-Min. "Why would I kill them when the three are the best in the world?" Lady Heather retaliated.
"Lets go home and rest," Chang-Min pulls me away.
We make our way into the elevator, "2 years in the United States, can you do it?" I ask.
Chang-Min sighs, "I can't, I am still in love with Kayla... I can't go a day without seeing her, without knowing if she's safe or not. What about you?"
"I am in love." I muttered.
I thought I could finally be happy. I just want to spend most of my days together with the boys.
"Hopefully after the two years, we can finally rest." I smile slightly and walk to the helicopter.
"What are you going to do about Yesung and Eunhyuk, don't you think about them?" Chang-Min gets into the helicopter.
"I hope they forget about me."
