KH immediately made her way over to the back door, she knew this house like the back of her hand. It was obvious whoever entered the building, was not friendly because the door was prived open with a crowbar and the bottom was bent slightly. Something seemed off, she seemed to recognise the M.O. "Are you kidding me..? How did they find me so quick-" KH thought to herself, as she kept the gun pointed at the doorway as she put the hood up on her sweatshirt, to try hide her face. KH created this particular strategy when ZYX used to raid stash houses, they would always use the back door as a distraction and go through the window.
The problem is which window they would try attempt go through, at that very moment she heard whispers coming from the living room that was to her left.
The only window that could be opened without being broken, was the middle window which almost coincidentally lined up with the large entrance to the room. The only hiding spots were beside the doorframe, whoever was inside her house was waiting for a chance for ambush. She saw the outline of someone's foot and shot at it, which made them dive for cover.Swiftly, she moved out of the way as a person had sneaked up behind her and was going to shoot her in the back, and pulled the trigger, as the gun was held to the persons back, KH didn't even hesitate. A loud scream was let out, a girl's scream. KH pushed the clinging body off her, onto the marble floor and kicked it to reveal the person's face; It was Jennie. She was now gargling and coughing up blood as she was looking at KH dead in the eyes, she seemed to recognise her. KH didn't have any time to react since bullets started flying towards her, she dashed off into a blind spot and waited.
After a few minutes of silence, she heard movement emerge from the living room. "Jennie?" Jaehyun and Luna both quietly yelled, quickly noticing the corpse of their coworker laying in the middle of the floor. "Kai is in the house, he just murdered Jennie." Jaehyun reported through his radio, "I'll go to Lyna, she needs help with B.I" Jaehyun said in a serious tone as he scuttled off. Luna was still hovering over the body when KH peeked around the corner, "Do they not know i'm here..?" KH thought to herself.
"They think Jongin's here- Laura probably hacked into his bank and saw the address.." KH theortized as she kept an eye on Luna. Luna finally got up and started walking in KH's direction, she suprised Luna who was obviously taken aback by the sudden ambush. Luna was wondering why she couldn't see this person's face and why her movements were so familar, as soon as KH ran Luna into a nearby wall, Luna ripped off the hoodie and her arms went numb; She stopped fighting.
"Hana..?" Her voice broke as she recognised the person she was fighting. KH didn't say anything, she just grabbed her handgun and whacked Luna's head until she was unconscious. She gently placed the body against the wall and grabbed her mask, to hide her identity better against the unknown number of ZYX agents roaming her house. "Hopefully you won't remember running into me." She said to the unconscious friend before dragging Jennie's body into the hidden room nearby.
Exiting the room, she ran into Hanbin who looked very exhausted. "Are you ok?" He worriedly asked. "I'm fine, She's not but me? I'm amazing" KH shrugged, Hanbin seemed confused until KH opened the secret door behind her revealing Jennie's body. "She never liked me anyways. Did you scare the others off?" Kh asked. "Yeah, Jun-hoe managed to shoot one of them in the foot, after that they fled. What are we gonna do about her?" He pointed to Luna, "Isn't she one of ZYX's main members? We could hold her for hostage? Randsom?" Hanbin suggested, as he kicked her leg. "No. We aren't going to, we're going to let her go Hanbin" KH sternly said. "And why would we do that?" Hanbin asked confusedly. "Because my friend" she started talking as she got up and walked to the bookcase where she opened a box, "Jongin grabbed this from Minseok's laboratory a week ago and it's a serum that messes with one's memory." KH explained, handing the needle over to him. "Jongin's so lucky." He sighed before injecting it into Luna's shoulder. "Let's move her to a few blocks away." KH suggested as she wrapped Luna's arm around her shoulder and started walking her outside.
"Has anyone seen Luna??" A worried Lyna asked around the small group of raiders. "I was with her last, she was with Jennie." Jaehyun didn't make eye contact with the mad woman. "Did you see who was shooting at you? Was it Kai?" Lyna asked to confirm her suspicions. "We did not see the shooter but whoever it was knew exactly where we were but didn't kill us- Luna and I. Jennie's sneak attack failed" Jaehyun frowned.
"So what you're saying, Luna might be dead already." Lul suddenly appeared out of nowhere with taeyong by her side. "I think we should go back to try save her, It's Luna for gods sake!" Jaehyun suggested. "I agree, Kai wouldn't kill Luna. He would hold her for something" Lul backed Jaehyun's comment up which made Jaehyun shocked. "Lyna and Taeyong you'll revisit the site as a duo and try retrieve Luna. If anything goes south, get out of there." Lul ordered before leaving.
"Aren't you going to get on?" Taeyong asked Lyna, who was being stubborn. "That is KH's motorcycle, how did you get it?" She whined. "At least i take care of it. Laura would never use it and Aysu would cry everytime she saw it." "Let's just get Luna back..I'm already tired of you" She rolled her eyes before hopping on the back and the duo made their way towards the manor. It wasn't until they got closer that they realised a female sat against the wall with her head hanging down low, Lyna recognised the females clothing and almost fell off the bike when she saw her. "Luna!!" Lyna yelled as she jumped off, Taeyong was taken aback as he tried his best to stabilize the balance.
Lyna checked Luna for any wounds, and yelled her name repetitively very loudly, eventually slapping her. Luna's reflex kicked in and she grabbed ahold of Lyna's wrist to stop her from slapping, "If you do that again, I'll cut it off." She warned in a deep and husky tone, "What happened? How did you escape from Kai?" Taeyong asked walking up to them. "Kai? What? I never saw Jongin.." Luna whispered. "Then who attacked you?" The duo was confused, Luna grabbed her head out of pain. "I- I can't remember... It's all a blur, I just remember Jennie's body and being suddenly attacked by someone in a blue hoodie.."
