Chapter 4

"Are you bringing Jeongin back home?"

"I mean if you know him, yeah."

Jimin stared suspiciously at Hyunjin, "When did you do things for me?"

"Fine, I won't take him home then."

"Nononono, thank you."

He chuckled slightly at her reaction, slowing down to wait for her.

-------------------

Three Days Later

Jimin was glad that Jeongin was nursed back to health and the two of you became friends really fast. She almost forgot about the fact that you were being held captive until Hyunjin placed you back in that wretched cell. He let her out occasionally though, which was an improvement to his last treatment towards Jimin.

"But hyung, why do you want to hurt Jimin so badly?" Jimin heard Jeongin's voice as she passed by a hall. She stopped temporarily, wanting to know who he was talking to, especially after hearing her name.

"Jeongin... I don't want to hurt her, I just can't help it and you know that. She's someone special." Jimin let out a small gasp when you heard Hyunjin's voice reply. But suddenly his voice cut off and all you could hear was silence. What happened?

Hands suddenly formed around Jimin's neck, choking her.

"Were you spying on us?"

"Um- um no??" She struggled to say.

He rolled his eyes, "Right and you expect me to believe that why?"

Jimin ignored his remark and said, "What did you mean Hyunjin?"

He opened his mouth like he was about to say something but closed it immediately.

"Well you're going to have to tell her the truth eventually, it's what he wanted." Jeongin piped up.

"I guess... Come see me after my lessons tomorrow at 4."

"You take lessons? For what?"

"Weapons." His eyes twinkled dangerously.

--------------------------

The next day, 4:00 pm

"Okay explain."

"Tell me your full name."

"Uh why?"

"Say it." He demanded, leaning closer to Jimin.

"Kim Jimin."

"And that's precisely the reason why."

She looked at Hyunjin weirdly.

"I killed your parents." He looked into your eyes, watching your expression change, "They killed my whole family after all."

"What?" Jimin said quietly this time, "No. No no no. They can't, they said they stopped!"

"Your parents never stopped killing. My parents were their loyal friends and assistants until your parents decided to turn on mine and murder them."

"Is that why you're a killing machine now?"

"Oh believe me, I didn't want to kill either, but your parents changed me. They changed who I am. Now I'm just a machine who never misses his target. A machine who has no feelings. A machine who will never accept the care of others. And it's all. Your. Parents'. Fault." He spat his last few words at me, his eyes blazing with just as much anger as Jimin's did just a few seconds ago.

Her eyes had softened, looking at the boy in front of her, "I didn't know... I swear."

"You're important... in many ways."

Jimin ignored his reply and looked at the empty and cold boy in front of you, wondering why her parents would lie to her "So you knew Jeongin all along?"

"Yeah, I sorta asked him to do this little stunt on you so you could trust me." He answered sheepishly.

Jimin laughed lightly at his actions and he grinned.

"It's been a long time since someone laughed with me that way."

A herd of footsteps sounded behind the two talking.

"Hyunjin, the other assassins broke in!" Felix's deep voice sounded behind Jimin.

She stiffened and tried to not look at the boy.

Hyunjin immediately stood up straight and started giving him orders and turned to Jimin, "Go to my room, it's down this hall, second door to the right. Don't leave until Jeongin gets you."

Jimin nodded her head fearfully and he pushed her down the hall.
