The Essential Jar

WARNING: There are some homophobic slurs being used in a dialog further down this chapter. 

Jungkook regrets setting the date up for Sunday. He only did that because there usually isn't any jobs given to him and his brother's that day but he was dead wrong. And it wasn't like he can cancel on Taehyung, the timid boy might not give him another chance and time was ticking with the bet.

"So we're supposed to sneak into their territory while they are hosting this week's underground fight club and sabotage their new shipment of pills? So basically a suicide mission?", Hoseok says, almost pulling his hair out.

"Look, I talked to Rozco, he said we will be acting as part of our gang's fighter's possie tonight, accompanying him to the fight. Once the match starts we just find their stash and douse it with gasoline, and dip before anyone notices we were gone.

"I don't know hyung... shit sounds simple but there are variables we don't know about. Since when do we go from selling and handling to sabotaging rival gangs stash? Isn't that a job for someone with higher pay than us little guys?", Jungkook fidgets as he hopes they finish on time for his stupid date, but also hopes that he doesn't die in the process.

"Well thats the thing... word is we might get promoted if this job is done right. They're looking for some new guys to rank up. At least that's what I was told. Our team was chosen for it, look... if you wanna back out of this you know you could always-"

"No! Fuck that. I said I was gonna earn my keep so I will. I'm just questioning it because the order was so sudden. Lets just get this over with"

Hoseok snickers, "Don't worry kid, we'll be in and out just in time for your 'hot' date".

Jungkook groans.... Fuck his life.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Getting to the fighting cage location wasn't a problem, the problem was that when they went to go pick up the fighter with other 'bodyguards' along with the possie that was supposed to escort the fighter, they found him dead, overdose on sno. At least they get to leave early Jungkook thought but then Rozco called Yoongi.

After the tense conversation, Yoongi looked pissed, or worried, Jungkook was pretty sure both.

"Ok new orders. One of us gotta step in as the fighter. Since this dumbass went and got himself overdosed, they need a new fighter but most importantly a distraction because the plan as to be done tonight. Turns out our boss received a lot of high bidders that our fighter was gonna win tonight. So that needs to happen and also because the rival gang was supposed to sell this shipment of poppers to some big distributors, American based- If that doesn't go through our gang can fast sell our shipment for double the asking price. So yeah..."

Jungkook sighs, he knew it wasn't gonna be easy as they made it sound, "I'll be the stand-in fighter then. I'm the fastest and strongest out of the three of us"

"Hey don't forget who taught you kid", Yoongi added

"Yeah hyung, but the apprentice is obviously better than the master now, and you know it"

"Bet I could still beat your ass"

"Hyung... come on"

"I just don't want you getting hurt kid", Yoongi scowled.

"Its decided then. I'll do it. Don't worry I'll be fine"

"Yeah he'll be fine... he has to be for his hot date later", Hoseok finally interjects
