Heat (Yumark)

Chapter Nine

They were sitting outside the enemy hideout. Taeil was running a scan to get the exact location of the hard drive, Yuta was on top of the van with binoculars looking for any suspicious movement, Mark was leaned up against the side of the van pretending to smoke a cigarette... (he would never actually, he wasn't about to ruin his lungs, but Kun said it was the best way to explain what they were doing if they were to get caught... aka the dummy had to take a smoke), Kun and Jeno were in the front seat. Jeno had his hands on the wheel ready to drive, and Kun was watching out the side window, looking for any suspicious movement along with Yuta.

"I got it guys!" Taeil exclaimed.

Yuta jumped down from the top of the van, and Mark flicked the cigarette bud away. Both climbing in after.

"Where's it at?" Mark asked, climbing next to Taeil.

"It's in this room," he pointed at the screen.

"That's the innermost room," Yuta commented. "And from what I remember last time I was here, it's the most heavily guarded."

"What if I went through the vents?" Mark pointed to the screen. "There's an access point right there. And it looks like it goes directly to that room."

Taeil nodded his head. "I think that's the most logical plan. What do you think Yuta?"

"I agree. I can stand guard by the access point, just in case."

"Right. And when Mark comes out you can cover him on the way back to the van."

"Right. Let's do it."

Yuta and Mark put their masks on and hopped out of the van. They snuck their way over to the access point, quickly and quietly undoing the bolts. They looked in each other's eyes before Mark pulled the vent cover off and disappeared inside.

Yuta quickly put the vent cover back in its place-without redoing the bolts-and leaned up against the wall. He looked at his watch, 8:30 PM. He hoped the darkness would shroud any suspicion the gang might have, he really wasn't in the mood to fight someone.

Mark on the other hand, was more than ready to knock someone out if necessary. The amount of times he trained/fought with Yuta made him always ready for a fight. More because everyone [in the gang] 'play attacks' each other, claiming it's a 'training method'.

It did help though, even if most of the members found it annoying.

Mark slowly army crawled through the vents, cutting wholes every so often so he could climb up a slope or sharp incline without falling. He was grateful that Kun made him wear thick padded gloves, especially since he really didn't want to.

Eventually, he found the room he was looking for. He hadn't really had time to examine the map, so Taeil guided him through the earpiece he was wearing.

He dropped into the room, trying to make as little noise as possible.

"It should be in a computer on the right wall," Taeil whispered.

Mark moved quietly over to the right side of the room. He fiddled around with the computer-trying his hardest not to accidentally turn it on-until he finally pulled out the hard drive.

"I got it guys!" he whispered into the earpiece.

"Great job Markie!" Yuta exclaimed. "Now get out of there!"

"I don't think so," a voice said.

Mark whipped around to the door. There, standing  in the doorway, was one of the members of the gang they were 'stealing' from.
