"Wer lächelt, statt zu toben, ist immer der Stärkere"
-The person who smiles rather than rages is always the stronger one-

"Pull."

A loud gunshot pierced through the air as Taehyung shot the target, bursting it into pieces. His shoulders and arms shook with the recoil from the gun held firmly in his hands. His eyes were sharply set on the target as he kept giving the orders and shooting. Sweat dripped down his forehead onto the field of grass.

"Taehyung. The plan has been formulated." Yoongi said as he walked to the younger. It had been 4 days since they landed in New York. They had been formulating a plan to take down their enemies here and complete the mission. Till now, they had managed to take down a few underlings but the real boss was yet to be plotted against.

Taehyung looked at the mint-haired male, nodding once before he kept the gun and walked up to him. "I think we can start now." He said as he looked over the papers and maps. "I'll infiltrate." He spoke up, looking straight at the older male. Yoongi's eyes widened as he opened his mouth to object.

"You've never done this before!" He said as he looked at Taehyung. "I'll do it now. You know I can." He spoke with finality as he picked up his grey jacket from the table beside him. He threw it over his shoulder, walking past Yoongi and going out of the door. 

Yoongi sighed as he followed after the younger, matching his step and walking away from their training building. Taehyung had been quiet since they left Seoul, refusing to talk to anyone. He had started cutting himself off from everyone, keeping everything to himself. The duo walked to their car, getting in and telling the driver their destination. 

Taehyung kept his head on the window, staring out, his eyes unfocused and glazed over. Yoongi felt his heart break at the expression. He felt weak for not being able to protect the person he called his little brother.

-3 weeks later-

Gunshots echoed in the hall, bodies falling to the floor in a pile. Yoongi dove under cover as he saw guns aimed at him. Bullets pierced the table behind him as he quickly reloaded his gun. He turned around, peeking out from behind the table and shooting a few men. He heard the empty clicking of guns and smirked.

"Time to play by my rules." He said as he walked out from behind the cover. Five men stood in front of him, empty barreled guns in their hands. Yoongi threw his own gun aside, running a hand through his mint-hair, a bit of blood streaking a few strands. Blood drops splattered his body, covering him in red. A few smudged marks laid on his porcelain skin, shining against the red. 

He walked forward, standing in front of them as he looked at them with a smirk and a glare. He fisted his hands, punching one man in the face as he fell to the floor, blood and spit flying out of his mouth as his jaw made a sickening crack. He attacked the others, knocking them out one by one. He wiped his busted lip with the back of his hand, scoffing at the metallic taste of blood.

The hall was filled with dead bodies, blood pooling everywhere. He carefully stepped over the men, stumbling his way to the end of the hall. The door opened to a large hallway, blood streaks marking the white marble floor. He quickly walked over to the room on the far end, swinging it open as he stopped.

Taehyung stood with his back facing Yoongi, a chair in front of him. A dead male was tied to the chair, hands tied together and feet tied to the chair. Blood dripped from a clean cut in his throat, his flesh visible as if the cut had been stretched. A few more dead bodies lay around the room, reeking of blood. Taehyung turned around a bit, his hands held a sleek knife covered in blood. His clothes had large splats of blood, painting the entire attire blood red.

The younger looked at Yoongi for a minute before he turned back around, slamming the knife in the wood of the chair, centimetres away from the man's head.  He pushed his hair back, exposing his forehead that had streaks of blood running down.  He popped his neck as he lighted a match, throwing it at the bodies.

The duo turned around, hurrying out of the doors and climbing up the stairs as they heard the sirens. Taehyung opened a random door, ushering Yoongi in as he opened the window. The window opened to a dead end, narrow space with a pipe attached. "We need to take our chances. This wasn't supposed to happen today." He murmured as he jumped out of the window, clutching the pipe and climbing down.

Yoongi followed, quickly jumping down to the ground as they made a run to their car. "The CCTVs will start working in 40 seconds." He commented as he looked at his watch, getting a new gun from the glove compartment. Taehyung revved the engine, racing the car away from the murder scene. He turned corners sharply, trying to make his route intractable. They stopped at their own hotel, wearing jackets over their clothes as they quickly walked inside.

"It's almost time for our flight." He said as he changed his clothes, throwing the blood-soaked ones away. Yoongi nodded, picking up his stuff as he slung his backpack over his shoulder. "Let's go." 

The duo ran to the rented car, putting their stuff in their bags as Taehyung held the files with one hand. They stopped at the airport, getting out and making their way inside. Adrenaline rushed through their bodies, heartbeats accelerated as they spotted a few police officers around. They had just killed one of the biggest mafias of New York and come out alive. They had stolen files from the man, getting out of the hall unnoticed.

But they knew it would only last for a few more minutes.

"We made it out alive." Taehyung breathed out as they stepped out of their flight. Yoongi nodded at him, giving him a gummy smile. "All thanks to you. You did great." He said as he ruffled the younger's hair. Taehyung gave him a small smile in weeks and Yoongi felt a bit relieved.

They made their way to the waiting area, immediately spotting Namjoon and Seokjin. They greeted each other, congratulating them. "It was all Taehyung, really. I never knew he could infiltrate and get all the info we needed." Yoongi said as he looked at Taehyung proudly. 

The younger smiled shyly as he looked away, his thoughts flowing towards a certain male. His phone buzzed as he broke out from his stupor. The group walked towards their car as Taehyung picked up the call. "Hello?"

"Congratulations on finishing the mission successfully." The voice answered as Taehyung froze. "M-Mr Kim?" The other chuckled as he heard the stutter.

"I would like to meet you here in my office, Kim Taehyung. Right now." Mr Kim answered in a low voice as Taehyung broke out in a sweat. "Did you think you could get away from the trick you pulled on us? Giving away 30 Million Won like it's charity." The older growled as Taehyung froze. "H-How..." He got out, his words choking as he felt a wave of dizziness hit him.

"Five minutes, V. I'm waiting." The call cut off as Taehyung fell to the floor on his knees, his breathing ragged as he tried to think of every possibility. His throat felt dry, a beeping sound in his ears as his vision blurred. This couldn't be happening. If Mr Kim knew, then it would all go down in a flash.

He felt hushed words next to him, all slurred together as he tried to differentiate between reality and his imagination. He picked himself up, feeling hands support him as he kept his palm against his head, trying to steady himself. "Mansion." He gritted out, the familiar rush of adrenaline back.

"Mansion! Now!" He said as he shrugged off the hands, staring at the three men around him. The trio gave him a look before they all ran to the car, getting in and driving off. Taehyung could only wish that his nightmares didn't become reality.

Hm... what does Mr Kim want now? I'm sooooo soooo sooooo sorry if this chapter is absolute shit. I wrote one chapter before it but my laptop crashed before it could be saved and I had to rewrite this. 

I'm so sorry if your eyes are bleeding rn. I didn't mean to make it so shitty. I'll update soon, I promise. The next chapter is the ending of the book one, the awaiting climax comes in.
