(Name) got her information from Kouji and gave him a pat on the head as she left. "If you need a bodyguard my offer still stands. Let's do this again sometime, okay middle schooler schooler" (Name) joked.
Kouji told her that Johan was hanging out in central Seoul near Jae Won High School. She thought it was interesting how so much seemed to be going on in that area. Even everyone meeting in that convenience store was happening in the area. She was glad not to have to travel far though. It meant that even if it was late she could still take some time to look for Johan.
First she chose to drive around and look for the park Kouji said was close too where Johan stayed. She knew she needed to be careful since he was basically living with his gang. The place would be full of people ready to attack her.
Pulling up to the park (Name) noticed it had gotten a lot darker. It would be much harder to spot anyone moving around, but she wanted to get her job done. It always made her a little prouder when Gun complimented her on her swiftness. (Name) got out of her car and went into the park. All the lampposts were finally on and it made walking around more relaxing.
Taking looks around every few minutes (Name) was not finding anyone. Nobody was anywhere near her. She was starting to think she'd have to come back in the morning, but before she could turn around and head home she heard a commotion.
Quickly and quietly moving towards the source of all the noise (Name) saw a group of boys come into view. Their backs were facing her and she felt like she was on a good luck streak. Bold as could be on the backs of their hoodies was a dog head with a cross in its mouth. (Name) smirked. The exact symbol Gun told her belonged to God Dog.
Still watching from behind them (Name) let them finish whatever they were doing. By the end it looked like they had robbed a few kids around their same age. As the other kids scurried off (Name) made her way closer.
"So you kids are part of God Dog, huh?" they turned around to face (Name). "I've been looking for you for a little while now."
"Fuck off lady. I don't know why you'd be messing with us." His hostility took her off guard, but she chose to ignore it for the time being.
"I'm looking for your leader. His name's Johan Seong, right? I have a message from Gun for him."
"Not our problem. If you can't find him on your own I don't see how important you could actually be."
Fully annoyed (Name) was done being the friendly one. "How about you lot just take me to see him and we do this the easy way?"thinking they couldn't fail the group of teens attacked her "guess it can't ever be easy".
There were three guys and two girls surrounding her. "I see you're all smarter than I thought, attacking me all at once like this."
The two girls leapt at (Name) first. With one girl in front of her and the other behind (Name) dodged to her right. Once she did that one of the guys tried to grab her, but she spun and kicked behind his knees before he got the chance. To finish him off she kneed the side of his head as he fell.
Back on her the two girls tried to claw at (Name)'s face. One of them managed to grip onto (Name)'s hair and pulled down on it. While forcing (Name) to look down the other girl started kicking her side. Trying to protect her body from the attack was getting harder as the other girl forced her lower towards the ground.
(Name) knew she needed to act fast as she heard the remaining two guys moving in on her. She stopped protecting her body in order to try to get free. (Name) jolted her head forward, closer to the ground, and in the split second the grip on her hair let up she shot her head back up. She nailed the girl's nose with the back of her head.
Able to stand on her feet normally again (Name) could see the girl holding her now broken nose on the ground, unable to push herself back up because of the pain. Remembering the second girl (Name) whipped around to face her and used the momentum to uppercut her. She joined the first girl on the ground, in too much pain to stand. A throbbing feeling started near (Name)'s ribs. Freeing herself meant she look several strong kicks to her side and the adrenaline had finally worn off enough to feel it.
Gripping her side (Name) knew she wasn't done. There were still two guys left. She glared at them and got into a fighting stance. They both ran at her but once again she dodged. They both ran past her and right into each other. Not giving them a chance (Name) slammed their heads together knocking them out.
The teens limped towards their hideout. The defeat was embarrassing for them to say the least. A single, unarmed, (short stack/ bean-pole) of a woman beat them without much trouble. They sulked as (Name) followed from behind.
It had taken a while for the group to all regain consciousness or get back on their feet, but that was a good thing. (Name) didn't show it but she was still in pain from that one girl. It felt like she was up against a kick boxer with how much those kicks hurt. Walking anywhere right after that would have been difficult, so some recovery time was nice to have. By the time they agreed to take her to their hideout she was basically back to normal.
Arriving at a basic looking building the group said this was where Johan was. They said he would be inside and that she could head right in, but (Name) wasn't stupid. She knew there was no way God Dog would let any random off the street walk in unchecked. Glaring at the boy she caught smirking (Name) said "How about you go in ahead of me?" he stopped smiling "You know, make sure there's no misunderstandings for me".
He looked nervous but couldn't exactly refuse. He gulped and went in ahead of her.
Inside was like she had expected it to be. It was plainly decorated like how it would have been rented to them. Only a few items that were clearly stolen livened the place up. (Name) could feel all the eyes on her. Nobody seemed on high alert though. It was a bit surprising that no-one's on guard when a stranger shows up unannounced at a quarter to midnight.
Getting to the room (Name) presumed Johan was in she was happy to have the night coming to an end. After a long day of work it was all starting to get to her. Her side still ached and the last thing she wanted was another drawn out encounter.
The boy ahead of her stopped and told some guy sitting down what was going on. The guy looked at her in a friendly sort of way. "I heard some Underground Vixen became Gun's girl. I didn't expect to meet you so soon, but I had hoped we would. I'm Jin Jang-" she stopped listening. She could almost feel the bullshit coming out of his mouth. At that point she just started to prepare to give him an ass kicking.
(Name) cut his prattling off. "You're not my concern. Is Johan here or did you waste my time?" The guy by Jin's side tensed.
Jin began to explain something to (Name) although she ignored him once again. It seemed like she had been loud enough to pique the interest of someone in the back room. Shuffling was heard before the person steps out. He matched Gun's description down to the T. Tired, she cut off Jin "You're Johan Seong?" It was less of a question and more so a statement.
The mysterious young man said he was Johan and asked what she wanted with him. Finally finding her target made (Name) relax a bit more. She lightened up and sent him a little smile. "This" she pulls out the letter "is from Gun. It'll tell you what your next step towards becoming his successor should be".
Johan took the letter, but mumbled something along the lines of not caring about being his successor. (Name) put her hand on his shoulder for comfort. He went to shake it off but she grips onto it. Looking up at him she says "Try to stay out of trouble then. There's lots of dangerous people out there".
Like you're one to talk the group from earlier can't help but to think as they all watch her walk away.
