thirty || d-day

A/N: hope you enjoy, so sorry and thank you for waiting!

"shit," ten cursed, as he stared at the monitor that displayed live CCTV footages.

"they found us!"

he yelled, warning the rest of his team. it was about time that ace would step into their territory.

"what—" jungwoo started to express his surprise, but ten cut him off.

"i'll keep mark hidden up in the office for now. you two fend them off while i think of something." he says, grabbing mark off the sofa and rushed up the stairs that lead to a small office.

as if just in time, ace had arrived at the bottom of the stairs. chenle locked eyes with winwin and instantly teleported before him.

momentarily surprised, this allowed chenle to strike first. his fist clenched tightly, it whooshes down, aiming right for the older's face.

meanwhile, jungwoo had armed himself with a small, but lethal dagger. he held it up in a protective stance as both jaemin and jeno cornered him.

jungwoo's eyes clouded over and he flashes the two of them with a sinister smirk.

"dodge me if you think you can."

he opted to charge towards jeno, the invisibility user. but before he could even try anything, he disappears right before his eyes.

just then, jaemin tries to tackle him from behind as jungwoo is kept busy with jeno.

however, the older one easily avoids the attack by stepping aside. jaemin crashes into a table.

"now, now, where are youuuu?" he cackles, eyes darting around each empty space as he stays alert for any movement.

that was when jungwoo felt a rush of air before him. he smirks.

"found you." his left arm gripped tightly onto something, and that was when jeno's invisibility wore off.

his ankle was trapped between jungwoo's fingers when he tried to throw a kick.

letting out a tsk, jungwoo begins twisting jeno's joints, and a loud crack could be heard as jeno groaned in agony.

a cynical smile plastered across jungwoo's face. dagger in hand, he aims his blade at jeno's abdomen.

"bye bye." he whispers, but as the tip of the blade nears his skin...

jisung appears and promptly knocks the dagger out from his hands.

jungwoo glares up at the younger boy, his eyes glazed with anger as he lets go of jeno's ankle, the latter quickly collapsing to the ground.

"do not interrupt me." he raises his right leg up, and jabbed the young boy in the guts.

he grimaces and falters backward, his back hitting the bookshelf.

jungwoo strides up to the youngest and yanks on his collar.

"hehehe. hello, regenerative user. let's see if your regeneration faster, or my attacks."

he taunts, and lifts his free hand to attempt a punch. he misses narrowly, jisung quickly dodging it as he flicked jungwoo's arm on his collar away.

as a result, his fist collided with the bookshelf and the books shook, a few of them falling down to the ground with a thud.

that was the amount of force jungwoo had exerted.

"you're nuts...i see why joker recruited you...a double personality?!"

he yells, charging towards the shorter boy.

jungwoo smiles, watching the boy throw himself towards him.

"you may have avoided me the first time, but wrong move, boy."

jungwoo cackles, and when the boy came closer...

...he elbows him in the neck, swinging his arm down.

the boy let out a shrill cry and he collapses to the ground.

"you half blood ants can never compare to me."

ten pov

after i secured a safe, hidden place for mark, i creeped up to the door and carefully twists it open.

loud thuds and shrill screams could be heard, but i ignored all of those.

my goal was only one person.

eyes trailing the room, my lips slowly turned into a curve as i spotted the girl i was looking for.

i chuckled, "it's d-day for you...hyeji."

my thoughts wandered back to the day our mastermind had given me a special mission before heading to blackjack's headquarters.

"ten,"

the voice from the other side of the curtain spoke. i looked up at the shadow beyond the thin cloth.

"one last thing for you. never mention this to the other members. you got me?"

"yes, of course." i instantly nodded my head.

"good...now, if something were to go wrong regarding the mission of mark, i...want you to kill the girl."

my pupils widened slightly. "the girl?"

"do you happen to mean, lee hyeji?"

"exactly that foolish girl. kill her off, and no one would be able to interfere. only her family would be able to go against mine...and she happens to be the strongest."

"i understand, i will do as you say."

i took out my bow, and concentrated my power as the air around me swirled and finally settled into an arrow.

one of my eyes closed, i pulled the string, aiming directly at the girl.

"goodbye, taeyong's little sister." i released the bow, and it goes speeding down right at the young girl.

she looks up at the bow in terror and surprise.

the people around her widened their eyes in shock.

"hyeji!" a voice yelled urgently,

and then the arrow finally pierced through.
