Babygirl | t.k.

twenty three

After many tears and apologies, the whole team made up with their leader, and Taehyung forgave him. Of course, their relationship wasn't perfect, and he was still hurt that his lover lied about him, but that's just it; Taehyung loved him. And in his mind, love could overcome any obstacle.

The clock struck two in the afternoon when Namjoon got a location. His computer started to beep loudly, and the team rushed over to look at it. Hope filled the room as they waited, wanting it to be Levius.

"Who is it, Namjoon? What's going on?" Jeongguk asked him, looking at the computer screen, trying to decipher all the words on it.

"Not Levius, if that's what you're wondering." The team let out a collective, dissapointed sigh.

"The good news, however, is that we got a location for Nigel."

Yoongi looked over at Namjoon, "Isn't that the drug dealer we've been trying to catch for like a year?" Namjoon nodded happily at him, and the team's spirits were lifted.

Jeongguk walked back onto the main floor, followed by his team. "Alright then, tell us where to go and we'll handle the rest. Let's suit up." Everyone went into action, and it was beautiful in Taehyung's eyes. The cases on the walls that held their suits opened, and each member took them out and began to change. Taehyung felt awkward just sitting in a chair, but knew he shouldn't get involved.

Jeongguk was now in his suit, and went over to pick up his bow. Jiyong went to his arsenal of throwing knives and other sharp objects, and Yoongi fastened two pistols to his belt.

"Alright, Nigel and his men should be meeting up in an hour on Riverside Street, right in front of the docks. They're supposedly meeting up with a gang called Dragons. How original, am I right Namjoon?"

Jeongguk rolled his eyes, "Jin, focus. How many men will be there?"

Jin cleared his throat, watching as Namjoon looked at him lovingly. He tried to hide the rising blush on his cheeks with his hands. "U-Um... Well, Nigel has about twenty men, but we don't know if all of them will be there. The Dragons have around fifteen. So at max, you'll be facing thirty-five armed criminals."

Taehyung's eyes widened and he shot up from his seat. "Do you have to go? Maybe just tip the cops off to their location and let them handle it."

Jeongguk smiled at his boyfriend, placing a gentle hand on his cheek. "We'll be alright, sweetheart. My team and I... We're pros at this kind of thing." Taehyung looked around the room worriedly, catching eyes with Jimin who gave him an assuring smile.

"Yeah, Jeongguk's right. They rarely get hurt, and if they do, they have me to patch 'em back up again. You shouldn't worry." Jimin said reassuringly, leaning against Yoongi's arm.

Taehyung nodded and took in a shaky breath, looking up to meet Jeongguk's eyes. "Promise me something, Kookie..." He whispered, hoping the others wouldn't hear. Jeongguk nodded, "Anything."

"Don't kill anyone. Stop the deal, then leave. Call the police. Let them take the others to jail. They don't deserve to die."

Jeongguk looked to the ground, confliction running through his mind. He wanted to promise Taehyung that he wouldn't kill anyone, but his anger could get the best of him out in the field. Those men were criminals. They sold drugs to anyone they could, even kids. He also knew that both gangs took part in sex trafficking. In Jeongguk's mind, they deserved to die.

He looked back to Taehyung and kissed his forehead lightly. "I promise, babygirl."

"Nononono, please, I didn't do anything! Please, just l-let me go! I-I have a daughter, a-and a wife, p-plea—"

Jeongguk let the arrow fly, sending it straight through the man's head. His body turned limp, falling forward onto the ground.

From behind him, Jiyong appeared with another runner in tow. "This one almost slipped by us, but luckily he's not very quick on his feet. Especially when a knife gets thrown into one ankle."

Jeongguk smirked, admiring his teammates handy work. "You handle him, then drop him beside the dead one. How is Yoongi holding up?"

Jiyong threw the man down beside the dead body, watching as his eyes went wide with fear. He let out muffled cries, since his mouth was duct-taped. "Let's just say fifteen men are sitting beside the docks, all tied up. You know how he feels about killing, Jeongguk."

Jeongguk sighed, nodding his head in understanding. That man would be the death of him one day. Yoongi was a veteran at heart, and killing people brought back bad memories for him. Jeongguk and Jiyong both respected his wishes, but still trusted him to get the job done.

Other than the fifteen that luckily got to face Yoongi, the other twenty were very much dead. Jeongguk tried to keep his anger reigned in, but seeing all those smug looks on those criminals completely destroyed his resolve. He tried sparing them, but Jiyong would just come back in and slit their throats, so he gave up.

Arrow after arrow flew, finding new homes in unwelcoming bodies. A few men were stronger then others and managed to get some good hits on Jeongguk, but none too fatal. They ended up dead anyways.

Jeongguk snapped out of his trance when he heard police sirens in the distance. Someone must've heard the commotion. "Let's go before the police get here," he turned his attention to the com in his ear, "Namjoon, Jin, tell Yoongi to head back to the lair. We're on our way."

Jiyong focused back on the frightened man below him, smiling viciously. He took out the knife that was still buried deep in his ankle; the man cried out in pain, muffled sobs escaping his mouth. Jiyong giggled lightly before shoving the knife back into the wound, dragging it upwards through the man's leg. "Jiyong, let's go!" Jeongguk yelled, tugging on his suit.

Jiyong let out sigh, sad to end his fun so soon. "Bye bye mister!" He said in a childish voice, shoving the man backwards and into the water below. He was in a daze for a minute as he watched the man slowly sink to the bottom of the sea floor, the water around him staining with red.

Jeongguk heaved Jiyong up by the back of his collar, pulling the boy all the way back to the lair.
