What the fuck was this world coming to? Mathan stood in front of the steel door and hated himself, his father, and most of all, the South Korean government. Because some stupid pencil pusher had decided to call them terrorists, these seven boys were now condemned to a hell they might never escape from.

In the three days since his sire had sprung his video surprise on the guys, they had barely moved, spending all their time huddled together on the floor. With the beds bolted to the floor like the table was, Namjoon had pulled a few of the mattresses off the frames, as well as all of the blankets and tossed them into the opposite corner from Yoongi's nest. And that is where they all laid piled together like beaten puppies waiting to die.

Of course his father thought it was fucking hilarious and kept talking about the long game. It made Mathan sick remembering that conversation.

~oooOooo~

FLASHBACK

Mathan stood at attention before his father, ingrained military habits hard to break, even now. The deadline was well passed, and they had received word that the South Korean government would not allow the money to be paid to the kidnappers, now labeled terrorists. It was time to cut bait and run.

"It would be a simple mission," Mathan started. "I can take three men, we blindfold and restrain the boys, take them to Lexington or Louisville and leave them in a sparsely populated area while you and the rest head out of the country. Once the boys are dumped, we meet up with you and plan a new mission."

His father leaned back in the chair, looked at Mathan and asked, "What makes you think this mission is over?"

"Because the money isn't coming," Mathan replied, "and what good is keeping those boys if there isn't going to be a pay out?"

"Oh, son," the man before him said, sounding amused, "you never were one to think of the long game. I always figured that something would keep the money from being delivered the first time."

Mathan's father flipped around the laptop he had been looking at and on the screen was the C.E.O. of Big Hit Entertainment in front of the international press begging for the lives of BTS.
