"So will you be coming to the party then?" Mr. Yang asks.

"I don't know..."

"It'll be a lot of fun. Especially if you come downstairs.. the guests we're buying today will provide great entertainment. Sadly, they'll only be a one time use."

"One time use?" I gasp.

"Yeah, one time use. I sorta got a choking kink... Sometimes it gets a bit out of control," He laughs, humorously.

I gulp. "Um, let me just check up on the, uh, humans for you."

I walk swiftly away from the Yangs and arrive at the meeting room. The elevator is still visible. I hit the switch and go downstairs to one of the Bangtan Boys' bunkers.

The elevator opens and in single file rows, there's shirtless and stunning men and women standing. They only were wearing tight bottom underwear and collars around their necks. They greeted me with polite smiles. Little did they know what was coming for them in the future.

"Y/n, what the hell are you doing down here?" Namjoon points at me.

"I need to speak to Jungkook."

"Okay, well make it quick. Time is money."

Jungkook is guarding in the corner and I walk quickly towards him.

"Jungkook, do you have any idea what will happen to these men and women after we sell them to Mr. Yang?" I whisper.

He sighs. "Honestly no."

"Then why are we doing this? Obviously the Bangtan Boys does every illegal thing in existence, but this a bit too far, no?"

Jungkook rubs his head. "It is, but-"

Namjoon yells, "Okay everybody get upstairs. You're gonna get to meet your new owner!"

Oh no....

Jungkook has no idea that these people will be brutally tortured by a man for entertainment and dropped in the river. And when he learns the truth, it'll be too late.

I can't let this happen. For both the people being sold and Jungkook.

I grab his arm. "Jungkook, you don't have to do this."

"I'm sorry Y/n, but I do."

Suddenly, Jungkook takes his gun out from his pocket.

Was he going to shoot me?

But then he does something I least expected.

Jungkook points the barrel of his gun at Namjoon.

Namjoon's eyes widened with fear but then he seems self-assured again.

"You're making a big mistake," Namjoon says, calmly. "Now hand me the gun before you do something you're gonna regret."

"No," Jungkook says. "My biggest regret is not standing up to you and Dad."

This is the first time I've seen Jungkook refer to his father as anything else besides Mayor Jeon.

"He isn't going to forgive you, Jungkook," Namjoon says.

"I don't care. I don't want that monster's forgiveness."

Jungkook gestures to the group of people "You guys, go with Y/n!"

There's box in the corner filled with robes and I hand it to them so they can cover their naked bodies.

"Y/n, go upstairs and head to room 1B. There's a safe filled with keys, jewels and money. The keys should unlock the collars, and then distribute the money and jewels to everyone. It should last them for a few years. There's an exit right by, and you all should go out there and run to Busan Shelter. Once they're outside, and are detected by the city cameras, they'll be safe. Nobody will hurt them ever again," Jungkook instructs me.

I nod. "What's the password to the safe?"

"I-I think you know what the password is," He shyly says.

"Snow." I couldn't help but grin.

"Yup. Now please go!"

The gigantic elevator fits the people. We successfully follow Jungkook's instructions and arrive at Busan Shelter in one piece.

"What do we do now?" One of the girls asks.

"Do whatever you want. You're free."

"I've been enslaved for so long, I don't even know what freedom is."

One of the older women wraps his arm around the girl. "She's been through a lot. But time will heal her."

A car abruptly stops in front of the shelter. I see Jungkook waving at me from the drivers seat.

"Y/n, come on!"

I sit inside with him.

"Namjoon is gonna kick my ass when he finds me and I'll probably be murdered by my father finds out or even worse- how about we leave here?"

"Huh?"

"Remember what you said about how you'd travel and escape to any place in the world with me? Even go to Mars? Let's go now!" Jungkook exclaims.

"To Mars?"

"No, I mean anywhere on the planet. How's Jakarta, Indonesia?" He proposes and shows me pictures of vacation spots in the country from his phone.

"Jungkook, isn't this a bit sudden?"

"Yeah, but I'm sick of this gang life and I'm really not in the mood to face the wrath of Mayor Jeon and Namjoon after what we did. So escaping it all seems like a better idea. You know what? Never mind-"

"No, let's go."

"Really?"

"Sure! Why not?" I grin.

Honestly, I was ready to do whatever Jungkook wanted, as long as he was safe. 

We arrive at my house and I quickly pack my bags and get my passport. 

It's a curse and a blessing my parents are work-a-holics; a blessing at the moment since they're not here. They'll definitely freak out when I call them from Indonesia, but I'm sure they'll understand one day. Or disown me. Whatever.

I exit my apartment building and find Bora at the front.

"Hey Y/n I'm here to return your textbook- woah, why do you have a suitcase? Are you going somewhere?"

"Yeah. I'm going to the airport. You can keep my textbook for awhile."

"When will you be back?"

"I don't know." I shrug. "I guess this is goodbye." We hug and Jungkook helps me place my bags in his car.

Jungkook books our tickets to Jakarta, Indonesia, with a secret card he's been saving that wasn't connected to the Jeon family or the Bangtan Boys. The car we were using was also not connected to the gang.

***

We arrive at the airport and get on the line for security.

This is it. We're really traveling to a new country for a new life.

And I'm so ready for whatever adventures that place will bring us. As long as Jungkook is by my side.

"Excuse me, ma'am. You need to come with me." A security guard grabs my shoulder then points at Jungkook. "You also."

A group of security guards lead us to a small, compact room. What the hell is going on?

"Hello Jungkook and Y/n. You're not going anywhere."

I gulp. Standing at the doorway was Mayor Jeon.
