DIAMONDS' RESTHOUSE

"I'm sorry, Seongri," Yuriko whispers as she tied an unconcious Seongri on a chair.

"Don't worry," Eunki patted her back.

Yuriko smiled at him. Eunki was Kenta's best friend and in situations like this, no matter what group he belongs to, he will always choose Kenta's side. No matter what.

She decided to cover both Seongri's eyes incase he sees anything suspicious when he wakes up.

Eunki started to log in to the main computer system and turned off the remaining surveillance cameras.

"Have you found it?" Kenta asked from the basement.

"Hold on," She started looking for the keys of the cell. She was sure she saw Seongri putting it here somewhere.

Yuriko saw something shiny under the cabinet. She picked it up and headed down to Kenta.

Her boyfriend put the key in and opened the cell door, "Welcome outside, buddy,"

Yongguk smiled, pulling Kenta into a hug, "Thanks, man,"

"Let's go," Yuriko motions as she secured her gun.

"Hold on," Yongguk took the key from them and headed to Zibo's cell.

Kenta looked confused, "What are you doing?"

"He's a friend of my sister," Yongguk explains pulling a scared Zibo out of the cell. "It's my obligation to save him,"

Yuriko and Kenta glanced at each other. Both of them wanted to say something but both of them decided not to.

They walked upstairs as they heard talking from outside. Yuriko rushed out, followed by Eunki. They found a red haired boy with his back facing the house.

She also spotted a bunch of unfamiliar boys with their guns pointed at the red haired. They must be the Spades.

The boy turned around, revealing his identity, "What took you guys so long?"

"Youngmin hyung..." Yongguk mutters as soon as he steps out of the house.

Youngmin smiled, "I'm not too late, am I, Kenta?"

Kenta laughed at the boy's amusement. He was one of the few people that the Japanese boy trusts, "You're just in time."

"Give Zibo back!" Yue Yue exclaimed from the other side.

Kenta raises his hands, "I assure you we're not the enemy,"

"How do we know that?" Shengen adds, raising his gun a bit higher.

Eunki who was quiet decided to butt in. If they want to prove themselves, they have to find a witness first, "Tell them, Zhu Zhengting,"

The Spades looked confused as all eyes were on Zhengting, who had his mouth hung open.

"I- I.." Zhengting stutters. He didn't know what to say. He didn't realize that coming here would mean revealing his past.

"Zhengting.. What does he mean by that?" Mubo asked, looking a bit serious. "Are you a double agent?"

"I'm not!" Zhengting quickly defends himself. "I'm loyal to the Spades and you know it!"

"Then what does he mean?"

Before Zhengting could argue again, Ruiying spoke up, "Look, fighting will get us nowhere,"

Fen looked at Zibo who wasn't struggling with anything, "Did they hurt you kid?"

Zibo quickly shook his head, "They helped me escape."

Fen nods, crossing his arms, "That answers that question."

"Look," Zhengting spoke up. He was thinking of sharing some of the things he was hiding. "Some of the Knights aren't our enemies. And I know for a fact that that guy," He points at Kenta, "Has the biggest grudge against Kang Daniel."

Kenta scrunched his nose, "Do I need to share my past just so you'd believe we're not the enemy?"

"We don't have time for this," Yongguk interrupts, walking forward. "Where's Shi Zhenya?"

"Why are you looking for her all of a sudden?" Yue Yue snapped back.

Zibo decided to butt in since he knew Yongguk wasn't going to say anything, "Ge, Zhenya-jie's his si -"

"Kenta, we have a problem," Youngmin interrupts as he looked at Yongguk with a worried face.

Kenta clicked his tongue after Youngmin whispered something in his ear, "I guess we have no choice."

Yongguk looked confused and moved over to Youngmin as he told him the news.

Kenta and Eunki exchanged looks and he knew what he meant. Eunki faced the Spades, preferrably, Zhengting. They still had their guns pointed at them.

"Zhengting, is this all your team?" Eunki asked, looking at the small amount of people.

"Some are at the Topaz' house," Zhengting answers. "Why?"

They heard Yongguk curse and walk back to his original spot. He looked at Zibo then back at the Spades. "Zhenya's been taken. And I need your help to get my sister back."
