Happy 1K reads everybody!  Oh my god, I never expected to get this much reads on a mediocre story like mine.  To celebrate, here's another chapter for your indulgence.  By the way, I'm sorry to all of my loyal readers for not updating in forever.  I hope you enjoy this chapter, because it might be my last for a while (better do it as if it's my last, I'm so sorry I couldn't resist making a reference).  As a lot of you know, school just doesn't let you rest, and when I do have free time I feel too drained to do much besides look at my phone and watch kpop videos (not saying you guys aren't important).  Also, I'm still perfecting the plot of this story, as I want all of my readers to have the best reading experience.  I know I can edit later, but on my first run I want the story to be as best as it can be.  And I will edit it later, cause have you seen some of these chapters?  Okay, I've talked too much.  Without further ado, here is the next chapter of the BTS Wonderland AU!

Very quickly, you found out that infiltrating a base was unfortunately not as exciting as your adrenaline led you to believe.  Although you knew that of course you and RM were not going to be confronting weapon-laden assassins at every corner and kicking their butts like badasses, you expected something more than. . .sneaking around.

You would be following Namjoon through the sterile hallways, when he would halt at a corner, causing you to almost walk into his back: a situation that reminded you of a while ago, where a certain someone (ahem, clumsy RapMon) stopped and you almost did the exact same thing on your first day in Wonderland.

Then he would gesture with his hand for the both of you to press your backs against the walls as a pair of assassins walked in synchronization down the hall that met with and ran perpendicular to the one you were in.  Luckily, before your group had decided to attempt this crazy heist, RM had insisted that everyone change into something a little less conspicuous; hence, the black, skin-tight suits he had handed out to everyone.  You had to admit, he was prepared, because imagining V in his garish attire wandering through the halls and bonking an assassin on the head in front of you was sure to make you explode in laughter and have everyone caught.

This cycle of waiting and going went on for some time, and as you reviewed the events that had taken place so far during the waiting and the swift running through the corridors, you could tell that more and more assassins were patrolling the halls.

It must mean that we're getting closer to the center of the base, you pondered in your head, as the stops you made at each corner became more and more frequent.  The bustle of the place and the groups of assassins walking around completing tasks while keeping on the lookout for intruders reminded you uncannily of a bee hive, the information you and RM were searching for being a queen bee in that respect.

The one time that justified the false signals adrenaline gave you was when you and Namjoon were almost caught by a group of four assassins.

The both of you heard the clomping of feet coming your way, but as the two of you scrambled to find a hiding spot, the (infamous) clumsy feet of Namjoon tangled with yours, and down the two of you went.

The noise that was made as you hit the floor was enough to make you cringe, but you were even more dismayed to hear the quickening of steps towards your location.

Unfortunately, RM was on top of you, and he was rather heavy.  Pushing at his giant form, he sensed the urgency of the situation and quickly got up.  You had no time to acknowledge the fact that he had been on top of you, and how your body molded into his perfectly, but then again. . .Yah!  Snap out of it, Y/N!  you admonished, mentally slapping yourself.

Quickly standing up, the two of you had dashed into a side room and waited for the assassins to finish investigating the area.

The terrifying wait inside of the room had your heart beating so fast you were sure it became one continuous beat.  Voices from outside that grew closer and closer had beads of sweat slowly trailing down your forehead from fear.  The slightly scratchy noise of the door being opened reached your ears.  Without realizing it until now, you felt RM's hand around your shoulder, a protective barrier to whatever dangers would come through the door.
