POISONED YOUTH: TWISTED

CHAPTER 58

The final battle had barely begun before everything went wrong.

What was supposed to be a carefully planned assault had turned into a trap, and the members of NCT had been separated before they could even understand what was happening. One by one, they had been captured, stripped of their weapons, and forced onto their knees.

Now, they sat tied together on the cold floor of the headquarters, their wrists bound tightly behind them as four IKON members stood in front of them.

None of them looked afraid. If anything, they looked amused.

Bobby stood at the center, wearing a smug smile as he looked over the captured men. His eyes eventually landed on the eldest among them.

"You're brave," he said with a small smirk. "Greetings, Taeyong."

Taeyong glared at him. "Fuck you."

Bobby's grin widened. "Oh, I love to."

The men around him chuckled.

He eventually moved toward Haechan, crouching in front of him and grabbing his chin, forcing their eyes to meet.

"How are you feeling?"

Haechan said nothing. He simply stared at him with an expression so cold that Bobby's smile slowly faded.

"Does Hanbin haven't started yet?" He glanced over his shoulder at the others.

The men exchanged looks before one of them shrugged.

"Oh, I thought he'd be playing with the girl," another IKON member answered casually.

Haechan's entire expression changed. "He what?"

His voice was sharp enough to silence the room.

Bobby slowly turned back toward him.

"There there," he said, almost delighted. "You talked."

He laughed as he stood, reaching for the drugging gun hanging at his side.

Then he pointed it toward Yunhyeong. "Kill your cousin."

Yunhyeong's eyes widened. "My pleas—"

The gun went off before he could finish.

His body went limp.

Haechan's eyes widened as he stared at Yunhyeong's fallen body.

"Where the fuck?!" Bobby spun around, immediately searching the room for the source of the shot.

A quiet laugh came from somewhere above them.

"Oops." Taeyong's lips curled into a smirk. "Looks like the kids caught you."

The next second, bullets rained through the room.

The captured men ducked instinctively as the IKON members dropped one after another, their bodies hitting the floor while the sudden gunfire echoed through the headquarters.
