Dark Solstice

Y/N'S POV

I stand in the practice room unable to move a limb as the world seemed to spin around me. The temporary head of the agency and the most trusted member of Mr. Bang killed him.

I need to tell Seojoon about this. He is the only one who can believe me and can help me.

"What are you staring at kid?" I break out of my trance and see Min Jung waving his hand in the air to grab my attention. My instincts kick in as I immediately come up with a plan to tell Seojoon about this snake.

"Mr. Jung , I was wondering from where did you get this cool tattoo on your left earlobe having blue flames." I say extra loudly to catch Seojoon's attention. Immediately his head whips towards me as he rushes at my side to take a look at the tattoo. I could feel him tense up and clench his jaw in anger as he understands my message.

"Oh, this. Actually my whole friend group have these tattoo's to....you know signify our friendship." He replies with a strained smile and I nod with a fake smile plastered on my face. He shuffles out of the room after waving a slight goodbye.

THWACK!! Seojoon punches the wall furiously. "I can't believe that snake was right here in front of us while we were searching the whole country for it." He shouts in annoyance.

"What snake?" Taehyng asks. I explain the story to him as Seojoon grumbles.

"Whoa so when do we plan to take him down?" Taehyung asks as we sit down on the practice mats. "After six months." Seojoon answers. "You need to complete your practice first. Without it he can kill you in a minute. If you all face him after completing your training then you might last in front of him." He says and runs a hand through his hair in order to make them slightly ruffled.

"What do you mean by we might last ?" I ask and Taehyung nods in agreement.

Seojoon sighs. "Min Jung has been in mafia life since he was fifteen and is the most experienced member out of all of us. He is my teacher too and knows all my tactics and tips very well. He has been Mr. Bang's right hand since years and can beat us hollow even if we do our best." He says his eyes looking down as if in defeat.

So he is the Thanos of my life.

"Okay then me and Taehyung will inform the rest of our friends and you talk with your team. Let's begin with our training now." I say as me and Taehyung stand up. A small smile breaks on Seojoon's face on seeing our confidence and determination.

From that day began six intense but unforgettable months of  our lives. We practiced all day and spent the evenings and nights together as our friendship became even more strong and unbreakable as days passed by. Sometimes we fought among ourselves to check our abilities and growth. I felt myself getting closer to all my friends especially Jimin as he was my roomate and Taehyung because we practiced together. Me and Jungkook also started having ten minute conversations without arguing so that was improvement.

The days were spent practicing drenched in sweat while at nights we enjoyed our quality time and Jin's dad jokes. Every night was spent restlessly for me as I craved for revenge. The sheer determination and fire in us never faded as we turned from weak newbies to strong and sharp mafia members.

Seojoon was the best teacher one could ask for. He was very supportive

SIX MONTHS LATER

Today was the day of Namjoon's oath ceremony as the president of the agency. The ceremony hall was beautifully and elegantly designed. The furniture was draped in silk wraps and the velvet red carpet covered the floor making it look upscale and fancy. The stage was designed with exquisite flower decorations making it look royal. The atmosphere was filled with happiness and excitement.

This was the happiest day I had ever experienced in the agency. But today was also the day we were going to strike.

We had planned every step meticulously and had revised our plan a number of times to avoid any casualties. We decided to strike after the ceremony when everyone would be congratulating their new president. Min Jung would let his guard down during that time and we will take him down. Everything was decided and we felt confident of ourselves. The ceremony started and soon it was Namjoon's turn to take the oath. We all held our breaths as he went to the podium in the dignified manner.

But before he could start a gunshot ringed through the air and pierced Namjoon's shoulder. The crowd broke into chaos as everyone lunged for cover and searched for weapons. Just then a bombarding of gunshots started breaking through the windows as we realized that our opponents surpassed us and attacked. This was the moment when we realized we were not the only ones who had plans.
