Taehyung and I are not talking anymore since the last time that I rant my feelings. Whenever I have trainings, Jimin will inform me. I will come to the training rooms and will leave immediately after.

I know he wants to talk to me. From the corner of my eye, i can see him watching my moves. But I don't want to talk to him or even look at him right now. I don't want to fall deeply in love with him because I know that I'll only get hurt in the end. Better to avoid him now than to lose myself. I want to be smarter now.

Today, we will be leaving to stop my father's men from stealing a containerized truck full of electronic gadgets. In my heart, I know that this is for the good. I know we should have played it legal. Informing the authorities about it but according to Jimin, my father's influence is so wide that he can buy everything with money. Including justice.

I shrugged my fears off and head on to the living area where Jimin is waiting for me. Its 10 in the evening. The trucks are usually out at midnight at the port. My heart races by the thought that I will kill someone tonight.

"Ready?" Jimin asked, handing to me my gun, spare magazines and earpiece speaker.

I nod. I took a deep breath.

"It will be fine. You'll get use to this Jin. I promise, once you killed one, it'll get better the next. You'll want more." Jimin smiled. This is the first time I saw him acting and heard him speaking like a real gang member. Tough and knowledgeable.

I saw Taehyung talking to Yoongi at the porch. Around five heavily tinted vans waiting at the driveway with several men standing and waiting. They are laughing and talking like they will not go into a dangerous mission tonight.

Yoongi shakes hand with Tae before walking towards a car. Jimin and I followed.

Jimin took the passenger seat and I went to the back seat. We all look at the backseat door when it suddenly opened. Taehyung pulled me out of the car.

"Heyy!" I said angrily. He's delaying our travel time.

"You're not talking to me the whole month Jin. Can we end whatever fight we had before?" I am surprised. For the first time since I came here, I am staring at his dark, brooding eyes.

"Okay. Whatever you say. I'll go now." I duck down but he pulled me again.

"You don't need to go. You can stay here." The feeling of worry etched all over his face.

"Boss, I want to go and please stop whatever you're thinking. Let's just talk later. We have to go now." I went back in the car and closed the door. I did not look back. I just noticed Taehyung's hand touched the window. Maybe he knows that there is no assurance that I will come back alive.

"What do I need to expect?" I asked. My heart beats faster as we approached the port.

"Just shoot whoever is not familiar to you. But since you know your father's men, then shoot them. If they escape, better. If they shoot back, that would be a killing field. Like what boss said, keep the driver and his companion alive and the imports intact." Yoongi doesn't look bothered at all. He is very calm and composed.

"Sir, they attacked the truck." The voice came from our coiled loop earpiece speaker.

"Shoot them." Yoongi ordered as he stopped the car. Gun shots can be heard nearby. Yoongi went out of the car.

"Yeah! It's action time." Jimin pulled out his gun, opened the passenger door and pulled the slide.

He immediately run to the location of the shooting. Never showing signs of fear.

I breathe out. This it Seokjin. I went out with a gun in my hand.

I saw Jimin hiding at the back of an empty intermodal container. He peak from the sides and shoots. "One down." He smiled in satisfaction.

I glanced around in all direction. Moving forward to the main location of the fight. Swallowing my fears and inhibitions, extending my arms out in front of me, ready to fire to the enemies.

Bullets fire to my direction. Bullets tore through the door and windows of an abandoned truck, sending glass shards flying everywhere. One hit me on my neck. I duck down for cover.

I crawled under the truck and in no time, from below, I shoot the man who shots fire on me straight in the head. He fell down. Dead.

I crawled out. Pulling myself up back to my feet. I felt the neckline of my shirt getting wet. The cut from the glass shard burns and bleed. I shrugged the pain off. I moved further forward.

I saw a red car that doesn't belong to our group. There are two people inside firing bullets everywhere. I hide from behind a van and starts spraying bullets to the red car.

Bullets gouging through the door and windows, shattering them in the process. I watched the two people inside the car lolled their heads. Both dead.

Ignoring the pain on my neck, the blood trickling from the cut, I eject the empty magazine and insert a fully loaded one. I tried to move as quietly and quickly as possible. I heard a creak on my back.I immediately turned around, arms stretched, my gun aimed for the man standing in front of me. His gun also aiming for me.

We stood there frozen. Gun pointing at each other. Nobody wants to pull the trigger. My chest heaves. Our eyes met and bore in each other's soul.

I struggle to speak. Shock filled my body. I cannot and will never pull the trigger to this man.

"Jungkook hyung?" I whispered. Gun still pointing at him

He did not speak. I know by the look in his eyes that he too was surprised to see me here - betraying our father and killing his men.

He pulled the trigger. I heard a loud bang. I closed my eyes waiting for my death. Death given by my own brother.

But it did not came.

I opened my eyes, Jungkook still pointing the gun to my direction. I looked behind me. He killed his own man who was about to shoot me.

"What are you doing here Jin? You can get killed here!" He yelled at me. Bullets fired on us. I duck down. But Jungkook got shot on the shoulder then one on his thigh. "Damn!" He cursed but still managed to shoot dead the man who shot him.

Then he fell. I crawled to where he fell. "I'll get you out of here. Just stay here and wait for me." I told him. He did not speak.

I stood up, like an automatic subconscious reaction, I fired to all the men on my sight. I opened fire with a sharp, three round bursts.

I felt a bullet grazed on my shoulder. Blood immediately drips to my back. I looked behind me and shot fires to the man who shot me. He clutched his throat as the bullet I fired hit him to his throat. He choked.

I never wait for him to die. Instead, I desperately look for Yoongi or Jimin. I shot fire from time to time. Ducking down and running for cover every now and them.

Then a car stopped in front of me. Taehyung went out and shots fire behind me. Killing someone in the process. He opened the car door and pushed me in.

"What are you doing here?" I asked in surprise.

"Saving you." He said as he closed the car door.

He keeps on firing to every direction, killing people in every bullet he fired. He went back in the car and sped off. We saw Jimin running, clutching his bleeding arm but still keeps on shooting.

"Jimin hop in!" Taehyung yelled as we stop in front of Jimin who went inside of the car.

"Yoongi was shot. But he's okay boss. Few men left from Jeon. Yoongi can handle them. Others escaped. Driver and his companion still alive." Jimin speaks continously. Reporting everything to Taehyung who maneuver the car.

"Taehyung please let's go back." I cried.

"Are you crazy? You're wounded." He said as he continue to drive fast.

"Tae please! My brother is there wounded. Please!" I pleaded, crying, but he still continue to drive towards the port exit. "Tae! Please!!"

Taehyung sighed and made a u-turn. He looked at me. "Where did you left him?"
