Episode 5

At dawn...


"Come back safely, no scratches."


"Will do. Don't worry too much. This is nothing."

V plays with the knife in his hand.


Wearing all black and a mask. One earpiece connected to Cypher and the other for his ongoing call with Jungkook. Of course, he turned off his other earpiece before answering the call.


"Go back to sleep. Still early. Pack later, Flight's at 9."

He reminds.


"Okay hyung, take care."


He hangs up knowing Jungkook is already dozing off. He turns his other earpiece on.


"Target's inside the warehouse. Few men around." – Jhope


"By the way, Kim Eui Sung is always wearing a bulletproof vest. That old man's always cautious." – Suga added.


"Okay, so I got the entrance cleared up. They've got guns but finish it as quiet as possible, V." – RM pants after pulling the knife out of a man's bloody neck.


"So just the usual? Get the briefcase with a finger."

V started walking towards the entrance where at least 5 men lie on the ground, lifeless.


"The left thumb."

Daehyun, who's also on the line, added.


"Got it."

He silently steps in the warehouse. He kept walking for a good three minutes before hearing men talking in a distance.


V grins behind the black mask.


"Didn't you say this old man used to work in one of your businesses, dad?"

V isn't really asking, more likely wanting to confirm something.


Daehyun, his father, and the rest sighs. Jhope whispers 'oh my god, not again'.


"No need to kill him." – Daehyun


"No need? But I can, right?"

V grins wider, eyeing the group not far from where's he's standing.


"Do what you want. The briefcase and the thumb-" – Daehyun


"-is all we need. Whether they see the sunrise or not is no longer important, right?"

V started walking, after months of not doing much, excitement fills his system.


Daehyun hangs up, already knowing it's a mission accomplished.


"What do we have here?"

V asks, startling the men around the table.


"Who the fuck-"

Kim Eui Sung, the target, panics and grabs the things on the table. H quickly puts the papers and some cash on the briefcase and locks it.

"Sshh, we need to be quiet-"

But one of the 4 men pulls out a gun and aimed at his head. V swiftly throws the knife he's been holding, directly hitting on the man's throat.

With such pain, the man started shooting, accidentally shooting one of his comrades.


"-Or making some sounds make it better."

V quickly kicks the chair when the others tried running away.


"Ah fuck! Help me."

The man who just got shot screams for help while grabbing his bloody abdomen.


"Sure."

V says before grabbing the man's hand, the one holding the gun with a knife stuck on his throat and pulling the trigger twice.


"See? No more pain, right?"

V tsked before shooting the man holding the gun in the head. He grabs his knife before the lifeless man fell to the ground.


Only two men left.


"Give me that briefcase and your left thumb."

V gestures his hand towards the briefcase.


He steps forwards and the men step back.


"Oh, peasants like you aren't even armed properly."

He sighs seeing how the two left have nothing, no gun, and no knives.


"Wanna borrow this?"

He lifts the knife soaked in red fluid.


"Just finish it already." – Impatient Suga on the line speaks.


Kim Eui Sung swallows hard before pushing the other man towards V. The latter slices the man's neck before sinking the knife in the poor man's nape. V even wipes the knife on the said man's shirt before the lifeless body fell on the ground with a loud thud.


"Fucking bugs tryna run away."

V chuckles before following Kim Eui Sung.


"The old man's on the left side. Someone called the police after the gunshots. In approximately 5 minutes, a patrol car will be there." – RM


"I'll take care of that." – Suga


"Guys, can we finish it already?" – Jhope speaks, still getting used to their ways.


"Alright, alright."

V grabs a metal bar on the side and throws it to the direction he guessed where the target is.


"W-wait! Wait! Aren't you V? Haha, come on. I worked for your father before. I can work again-"


"Sshh...bugs don't talk."

He approaches the trembling man.


"Wait! You can have the briefcase. I'll give it to you. Just let me go. Just this once."

The old man shakily throws the case to the ground, just near V's feet.


"How nice of you. And your left thumb, oldie."


"What? No, you can open that with a code."


"Damn, I'm asking nicely and you're trying to deceive me? How cheap."

V attacks him in a second. He grabs the old man by the collar and slams him down on the ground.


"Ack! You- you give 7 chances, right? You give your opponents 7 attacks before-"

Kim Eui Sung couldn't even finish his sentence when V jabs the knife under his chin, shutting his mouth.


"I told you bugs don't talk and you're never worthy of those chances. Fucking peasant."

Tears fell from the old man's eyes but couldn't even make a sound.


"Oh wait, I need this to cut your left thumb."

He pulls the knife out and grabs the man's left hand. The man shakes badly, terror and pain reflect his eyes.

He's still alive, yet he couldn't fight nor make a sound. Could only cry as he feels another sharp pain cutting his thumb.


"Ah, how dirty. Do you have a hanky?"

V tosses the finger in the air a few times before taking it in plastic, pocketing it after.

He turns to the man and removes his mask, revealing his sickening smirk.


"Your bulletproof didn't save you. Oh, and is it painful? Knives are more painful than bullets, you know?"


"I'm out. I'll be taking off now. Need a nap before packing later." – Suga


"Same. I already left the warehouse." – RM


"Gonna turn this all off now. I want to rest, too." – Jhope


"Whatever."

V removes his earpiece.


"Tsk, why are you still breathing?"

He asks the man who's trying to catch his shaky breath.


V quietly and slowly sinks the knife at the crook of weeping man's neck. Blood spurted as V mercilessly pulls the knife out.

He yawns before standing up, picking the case up and walking away from the man slowly dying.

V whistles as he leaves the warehouse. A few meters away from the place, he hears sirens.


He dials.


"Clean it up."

"Got it. Consider it done. Let's hang out next time when we're both available."

"Sure. Hyungsik hyung would be jealous."

"Haha, damn. He'll be out from the military soon. Alright, Peakboy out."

"Still with that weird sign out shit?"

"Give me a break, V. Alright. Gimme a call anytime."

Peakboy, one of his friends and colleague, hangs up.

V yawns and looks at his watch. Still pretty early.


"Let's go back home."

Whispering this sentence with a certain bunny in his mind.

=============================

I can't write now.

I'll be putting this on hold for like 2 weeks maybe.
