DOUBLE UPDATE

The following morning all men were huddled in Jin's restaurant, the place a convenient area for all the men to meet. It was pretty early and a Sunday, so RJ's was closed either way.

They were all in the back room, Jackson with them, waiting for Hoseok to click the call button to the devil himself.

Finally, he clicked it, all of their breaths catching in their throats as the phone rang obnoxiously loud. They were all annoyed until that annoyance was replaced with fear when they heard the call pick up.

"Dearest Hoseokie, what do I owe the pleasure of this call?"

So many things were racing through their heads when they heard the man's voice. For one, they didn't expect the number to actually work, which rose suspicion within them all. Two, his voice sent terrifying shivers down their spines, that one sound bringing back a multitude of awful memories.

Hoseok gulped before responding, "I want you to stay away from my family, my friends, everyone that is involved in my life. What do I have to do for you to do that?" he asked, surprised he didn't stutter.

Sejun chuckled on the other line, all of them swallowing harshly, "You're offering me anything? Just so I can leave you all alone?"

Hoseok looked at the others before responding, they all nodded at him, "Yes."

"Well isn't that neat," they suddenly heard a muffled cry on the other line, Jimin's eyebrows furrowing when he heard it. Then they heard the man scream for help, Jimin's heart dropping.

'That's Taemin,' he mouthed to Hoseok, whose eyes widened at what he said.

"Why on earth do you have Taemin?!" Hoseok shouted at the male, who laughed on the other line, the sound of Taemin's cries dying down.

"In case any of you try to set me up again," they all realized Sejun knew they all were listening to the conversation but still allowed Hoseok to only speak. "He is my leverage against you all, do anything that goes against my conditions he gets it."

"What do you want?" The orange haired male repeated, all of them bracing themselves.

"Yoongi, is one thing," Hoseoks heart dropped to the pits of his stomach when he heard the name. Yoongi giving him a reassuring look. "Jimin, he's always been a favorite of mine," said male had to hold in a whimper when he heard his name, the male turning to hug his sync tightly. "And Seokjin," Jin rolled his eyes, he and NamJoon already saw that coming.

"I want them unarmed, none of you joining them when they come to me. If you give me those three, Taemin will be set free and I will leave the rest of you alone for good," Sejun told simply, all of them staring at one another.

Namjoon nodded to him, "agree," he encouraged in a hushed tone.

Hoseok nodded, "Okay, I agree, now where do I send them?"

"No no no, give the phone to Yoongi, he can know and lead the other two," Sejun demanded, Hoseok hesitantly giving the phone to Yoongi.

Yoongi got up and walked to the counter, grabbing a napkin and a pen to write down the location. He got Sejun off speaker and pressed the phone to his ear. 

"Give me the fucking location, asshole," he commanded, catching everyone else off guard at his tone.

Sejun laughed, "Such foul words," he tsked, "anyway, you do remember the precious place I took you and the rest last time. Yes?"

The maroon haired male quickly realized Sejun was speaking of the very same candy factory he kidnapped them in last time. His heart skipped a beat, but his voice didn't waver.

"Yes, now when?" he persisted, Sejun giving him a time.

Then they hung up.

Yoongi slammed the phone down as he threw a near by glass, this catching them all off guard. Once Yoongi composed himself he turned to the rest, who held concerned expressions.

"I guess we're going back to that Candy Factory, it's where he wants us to meet him," he informed, Jimin suddenly feeling the need to throw up.

"This is such a trap," Taehyung mumbled, though the rest heard him loud and clear.

They nodded, all knowing very well this whole thing was one big set up. But Sejun didn't have the upper hand, since he thinks they will just let Jin, Yoongi, and Jimin go to get him away from their families. 

"Tomorrow night, that's when he wants us to go. Without anything, or anyone else," Yoongi continued, the rest nodding.

Now all of them prayed nothing would happen to anyone else.
