Secret Agent (Jhope X reader)

Chapter 11 - Car Chase

~look at that cutie~

My body was tense as I pressed my foot down harder on the accelerator, the boys beginning to panic a little now. "Stay still, buckled up and you'll. Be fine. I'm a good driver I promise" I could hear a few gulps as I overtook various cars and lightly hit the side of the road. I had no idea how this was going to end, all I did know was that I had to have eyes everywhere and very quick access to my firearm. "Hosoek" my heart dropped a little knowing it was him next to me. "Open the arm rest carefully please" I make sure my voice is calm and reassuring as I follow xiumin's dangerous driving. I quickly scan my finger print for the second compartment. "Take my gun out and hold it tightly, pointing down at the foot well .. okay?" "W-what-" "its okay..I just really need you to do that for me" I talk soothingly as if im talking to a small child as he takes the gun and holds it in his lap. "Thank you angel~" I praise him gently, my eyes glued to xiumins car. He was driving so erratically it was hard to follow without doing the same. The tension was so thick yet I could feel the anxiety off every boy in the car and the guilt of having them with me messed with my head a little- and didn't xiumin know it. My anger forces my foot down on the accelerator as I punch the buttons on my radio. "Hoseok baby .. could you do me another favour?" I ask gently again. "S-sure" the fear in his voice made my vision blurry with guilt and pain. "Could you switch the radio from FM to Z please?" I catch a nod from the corner of my eyes and watch him switch it over. "Hey zo, busy?" I talk in English for her, my usual light hearted tone not changing. "What do you require my love" she cusses a small smile to appear on my face. "A little assistance on xiumins car-" I read the number plate to her and hear her tap away at her keyboard. "Imported from China, bought in Belgium... transported .. Jesus, it's one of those rentals cars that frequently swaps hands.. last stationary location was India then it fell off the grid" she taps some more "seemingly forgotten .. how strange .." I strenuously pull the car around a sharp bend, sending the boys veering to the left as I do so. "Sorry about that" "registration can't be tracked, seems as though he's messed with the cars details- untraceable" Zoe joins in; I roll my eyes. "Of course he fucking did" I squeeze the steering wheel out of frustration and anger. "What an arsehole" I shout through gritted teeth. "Can you get a cell service? Or radio?" "Nothing-"  I hit the steering wheel feeling so much anger build up in me, I wanted to get that damn man so bad, even if it killed me. "Y/n .. please" Hosoeks voice was quiet but strong, it vibrated through my whole body. "It's going to be okay" he reassured me despite his obvious anxiety and I couldn't help but smile a little. "Yeah it is" I didn't know if I was lying or not. I pulled another sharp turn and clung to the steering wheel- fighting the car to stop it rolling. "Nice driving baby girl" xiumins voice rang out through my radio. "I could say the same to you daddy" I reply, knowing full well the boys were terrified and clueless as to what to do and what was going on. "I'd be careful if I were you" I roll my eyes, he loved the dramatics of everything. "I'm careful everyday daddy, wouldn't want to get hit by freak lightening or run over by a bus" I swerved some more cars, starting to have a very bad feeling about the whole thing. Xiumin took a very dangerous and quick u turn back up the road before turning off immediately onto a blocked off road, sending the road closed sign flying in the air. I take a deep breath before pulling the steering wheel hard, "hold on" I spin the car almost in a circle and drive back down the road before flinging us around the same corner and down the closed road. "Umm .. (nickname).." "yes?" I hear her breath change "we have a slight issue.... the end of the road is well.." "fuck!" Before Zoe got chance to finish I came out on a straight line heading for the river and a severely broken bridge that was not going to save us. I pulled onto the second lane and slammed on my breaks, there was no time to get the car to stop. We came alongside xiumin who was clearly having the same struggle as I was with slowing the cars down. "Keep your heads down, he can't see you" I warn to the boys, the glass was one way but I took no risks, "especially you hobi" he was already well hidden in the foot well. "Thank you" I could feel the fear in the car rise as we got closer to the river. "If we fall" I talk loudly and calmly. "Keep breathing calmly, as the water fills the car, try to catch an air socket but wait to take your final breath. If the lake isn't deep once we hit the bottom open the doors and swim. If it is, I'll tell you when to go. Got it?" I got a few muffled and terrified yeahs. I was hoping we weren't going to go in but I had to make sure they had some kind of safety brief just in case. We were getting rapidly closer, xiumin and I were practically next to each other, maybe I was slightly ahead. I glanced over to see him fiddling and unbuckling, he was ready to get out of that car as soon as it hit the water and there was no way I was letting him get out. We were less than 3 meters from the edge when I grabbed the steering wheel, turning the car side ways and straight into the passager door of xiumins car. Sending us both into the trees and smashing our cars up. The crash had made us stop but there was smoke everywhere and I got tell the boys were severely shaken up. My priority was getting them all out the car and hiddens from xiumins firing line. I reach over and kick hoseoks door open, using it as a shield. Maybe it was my years of experience or maybe the adrenaline or anger that made me go numb. But it wasn't until I noticed the blood on me did I realise id been injured. "Really slowly I want you to climb out the car stick to the side and move to the back okay? Hobi first" I help edge him out, taking my gun gently and he slides silently to the back, before my brother kicks his door open the rest of the boys follow. I'm the last person to move to the back, peering a little further out to catch a glimpse of him. He hasn't escaped. His dignity wouldn't let him leave this. Everything was eerily quiet, and I waited. The boys huddled together to share warmth and comfort but I stayed very solo. Hsoeok tried to reach for me but I moved from his hand. "I'm too dangerous" I whisper, nudging him towards yoongi and tae. I didn't want to make the first shot because I was limited on bullets and unaware of his position. So I waited. Silently. In the quiet serene of everything I heard a click- BANG. I fired at the direction and heard a yell of pain but I was back behind the car by the time he shot in return. Too slow. I waited again and moved to the other side slowly, hearing his click I fired again in the same direction but lower, he yelled out again. His shot hit the car an inch from my head and bounced off. His awareness was getting better. There was another click but it was heavy so I didn't fire. Click. Click. It was so heavy. Click. Shit. I almost flung myself over the boys forcing them to the ground as a rain of bullets flew over the car and past our heads. I stayed firmly over the top of as many as I could, keeping them safe with my warmth. After his first round he did a second and third of just hailing down a storm of bullets on us. I let out a scream as if I've been hit. Then suddenly my brother screams too. And all the boys start making noises of pain and death. A forth and fifth round rains down he before the boys start quietening down. Xiumin would be ready to make his way or a move. I didn't know which, if he thought us good as dead he'd be getting rid of the cars. If not he was coming to make us dead. But I assumed it was the first. We stayed grunting a quiet pain as I heard him move. His leg. I'd shot him in the leg. I could tell by the sound of leaves under him, he was dragging his leg. I start ushering the boys up, encouraging them to keep their act up despite the fear pulsing through their bodies. Slowly I move them low to the ground and further away. One at a time. I hear a metal object hit the front of the car and slide underneath. I peer under and see a small circular device with a red might. Something we never time to hack, it was just too fast for us. I shove the rest of the boys along the leaves, Hoseok was at my immediate contact as i forced them to run. I grabbed my gun and ran after them as the entire car blew up. The force of the explosion sent me flying off my feet and into the ground about a meter or so from the boys. A flaming pain seers through my body as I'm hit by the edge of the flames. But all scenes of xiumins presence was gone. The boys hurriedly ran to my side. Shocked, scared, confused, worried, upset. I caused all of that. I was a danger to them. I kept my consciousness to show my strength despite the pain courting through my body. I knew the police were on their way. I could even hear the sirens now. Everyone was going to be okay. But Xiumin was gone.
