Did You Order An Assassin?

Chapter 19| KO

Jungkook was skating down the road in a white truck with the music up high, the bass vibrating the inside of the truck. He turned the music down as he glanced at Sohyun. She looked straight ahead, deep in thought. Her usual wavy hair was straightened, the colorful strands blowing out the window as the wind caught it.

"You alright?" Jungkook asked.

Sohyun turned her head in his direction, a small smile appearing on her lips as she nodded her head. "Yeah. I just find this weird."

"What is?"

The two were on their way to complete a mission, Sohyun's second mission and first mission that would involve an assassination. The thought of someone getting killed today went through her mind constantly. She was going to be an accomplice to a murder. Though they were killing someone that did bad, what exactly she didn't know, but Jungkook did and she trusted him. Knowing that she wasn't apart of some crooked messed up organization that killed innocent people should have relieved her, but it didn't as much as she wished it would.

Yesterday they were told to come to the restaurant early without a given reason. Once they got there, Namjoon ushered them into the office and told them that they were going on an assassination today.

Sohyun raised her eyebrow at Jungkook. "Not that I don't mind being paired up with you, Yoongi's suppose to be my partner for these kind of things. Why did Namjoon just suddenly put us together? It's kind of random."

Jungkook was quiet for a moment as he thought. "I honestly don't know either. It is a little strange."

After driving for several minutes in silence, Sohyun felt that they were getting closer to their destination.

"Jungkook."

Jungkook glanced at her, seeing the worry in her eyes. "What's wrong?"

"I'm . . . nervous. I'm not used to this, I've never done this. I don't even think I'm ready for this yet. What if something bad happens?"

Jungkook laid his hand over Sohyun's smaller one that was resting on her thigh. He locked his eyes with her. "It's ok, Sohyun. Let's just hope for the best. You can do this."

Sohyun nodded her head as she took a deep breath, facing the window.

Finally reaching their destination, Jungkook drove a little passed the building and parked in the ditch. Knowing it would be useless to carry a gun since she didn't know how to use one, which was really a disadvantage, Sohyun hid a pocket knife in her boot just in case.

The two got out of the truck and quietly made their way to the back of the building. Once making it to the building, they leaned against the building's wall as they checked the surroundings before continuing. After making sure there were no witnesses, they put on their face mask. Jungkook looked through the back door window.

"Is anyone there?" Sohyun whispered.

"No," he said as he put a code in the keypad on the door.

"Where did you get the code from?" Sohyun asked as the door opened. This mission was last minute, at least Sohyun thought so. Namjoon didn't give them much preparation time or information about the mission, so why did Jungkook seem so prepared.

"Hoseok."

"You knew about this already. You had everything set up and figured out, didn't you?"

Sohyun could tell Jungkook was smiling by the crinkles in the corner of his eyes. "Smart and observant. I wouldn't expect anything less," Jungkook said. "I'm prepared because I was planning this mission already. I was supposed to go tomorrow . . . alone. But Namjoon had a change of plans I guess." Jungkook looked back down the current empty hallway. "We need to go upstairs. Stay close behind me, ok?"
