Chapter Text
"You know what you've got to do now, right Jungkook?"
The voice buzzed across the phone.
"Yes sir" came a chocked reply.
"What's with that voice? Don't tell me playing house at the agency make you soft. Do you need a reminder of what those demonic maniacs did to your brother? Let me know in case you still need to hear his screams as they stabbed his lifeless body to the point of being unrecognizable. If your nightmares aren't enough, I'll find you something better to remind you of that wretched day."
"No sir, you don't need to. I know our mission and our objective. They will suffer for what they did to him, especially his killer, V ."
"Well said Jungkook, ah Junghyung would have been so happy if he could've witnessed this day. Make us proud kid."
The phone fell to a dead silence as it dropped from his ear. The boy's eyes grew darker, void of any emotions as he hands gripped the mark bearing dagger, repeatedly tracing the edges of the design as he moved forward across the roof top. His mind was focused on reaching his destination - Hwarang hills, building 4, apartment no. 7, residence of Kim Taehyung.
Taehyung POV
I crashed through the doors to the nearest members' I could find. Jin and Namjoon looked up at me confused and a tad bit peeved as I interrupted their tea and denied them of their much wanted peace and quiet.
"You sure are energetic for someone who was a patient a couple hours ago." Jin said sarcastically as he put down his teacup to look at me. But as soon as our eyes met, the look of sheer horror in my eyes somehow managed to convince him of the severity of the situation.
"Please tell me you look like a corpse cause you managed to piss off Hoseok again and not cause we have another situation at our hands" Namjoon asked with a serious voice but the nervousness in his eyes deceived him.
"Jungkook's gone."

"I've covered the top 3 floors, nothing amiss, over." Jhope radioed back.
"The outdoor's clear too. There's a missing bike and tracks but I scoured the perimeter and it leads to no where, however its still most likely his getaway vehicle. I'll run a check just incase but he might have ditched it by now. Over." Came the second report from Suga.
"His bags are gone so are all of my your family history documents. The cameras are wiped clean and his cellphone is untraceable. It's a perfect getaway. No witnesses, no clues and no clear intent." Jin said as he sat opposite to me. The place being occupied by us right now cold and empty with a singular table and three chairs in the centre of it. The similarity to the infamous BTS interrogation room was remarkable. But unlike the norm, I wasn't on the interrogating team, no this time it was me being interrogated.
"Time of discovery - 2:38pm, the last time you saw him - 1:20pm, last seen on cameras - 1:33 PM. Missing articles - 2 revolvers, a assault rifle and 7 rounds of ammunition, documents related to the investigation and 2 staff IDs. Motives and goals still unclear Are you sure you're not missing anything V?" Jin questioned me again and for the I muttered out another yes. We weren't playing games, right now I was a unsurprisingly a suspect in aiding his escape. Guilty until proven innocent. It had been drilled in our heads since our early trainee days. Right now I had no friends here, they were hounds in search of a blood trail and I was an empty blood bag.
"If you swear that he was normal when he was with you, what could've gone so wrong in a matter of minutes that he literally ran away to God knows where." Jin demanded and I gritted my teeth and replied. "I would've fucking told you if I knew anything at all. What do I have to gain by covering for him?"
"Thats hard to believe V cause the last person you'll spoke with was Nabi, after which Jungkook clearly ran away knowing it would dampen our plan and defenses greatly and you despite being with him the entire time have no idea? That doesn't sound very convincing now does it?" Namjoon said this time, turning towards me, his eyes cold as the night and he looked at me like a stranger, or more accurately, a culprit.
"An orchestrated plan to go snipe the enemy, an uncalled for infiltration, or revenge for Jimin? Knowing you track record it won't be that far fetched would it?"
"Do you'll really have the time to throw suspicions at me right now? We should be out there looking for him, I'm not a damn accomplice I'm worried sick over here."
"Calm down V you should know yourself how bad the situation looks for you."
"Yeah but you guys knew him too! You'll trusted him too!You can't just assume-"
"Kim Taehyung." RM said, sternly. His voice demanding authority. "We both know that in this profession that means nothing. And can you really speak about trust when Jungkook clearly betrayed yours and ran away? You're growing soft Tae, snap out of it"
I opened my mouth to retort but was interrupted by the sound of the door clicking open.
"Arguing is going to do us no good right now" Suga said as he entered the room. "Taehyung isnt physically well enough to fight yet and Jimin's down for the count. And with Jungkook gone we're running terribly low on our first line of combatants." He took an empty seat as he placed his devices on the table. Right now the heat thing to do is call the agency and wait for further orders. Taking rash decisions will end badly for all of us-
Rrring
A phone buzzed in the corner of the room.
rrring
The sound echoed to a chilling loudness in the empty room.
It was my phone.
rrring
Jin handed it to me signaling me to put it on speaker.
rrring - click
"Hyung! "
My eyes widened at the voice. It was Saeyoung's, but it wasnt his usual voice. It sounded heavy, broken and desperate, like someone who had been crying.
"He took her!! He took Eunha!! He broke through the kitchen window and knocked was unconscious. I tried protecting her, I really tried to but he was too strong. I- I couldn't stop him. I, I- "
Wrecked sobs could be heard clear as day. He was bawling at this point, words incoherent in between the streams of muffled apologises that came through the speaker.
"Who was it" I whispered across, voice as calm as I could muster, barely being able to contain the anger boiling inside me."
"Jungkook" came the choked response. "....it was Jungkook who took Eunha."
