NARRATOR POV

Jin took the blindfold off after a couple of minutes, Bri simply sighing heavily.

"I know you must be scared, but the guys mean well. For now, I just want to make sure you're okay with staying over with us until those men settle down."

Bri looked down at the sheet that had been filled out by one of the guys. She clearly had no other option.

Yoongi had even been so graceful as to tell her, while he put the blindfold on her, "or would you rather end up washed up like the corpses you examine?"

She shivered in her seat, reading down the filled lines of the paper that she had been given previously. She felt bad and a bit annoyed that he had disrespected the poor people that met an unfortunate end or that had family mourning their loss. 

She looked over the sheet carefully, soon coming to the conclusion that everything on it was correct. Ridiculously correct.

"This information..."

"Namjoon is the best um- investigator there is around. Trust me at first it's a bit overwhelming but you'll get used to it. Plus it's not like my brother pays much attention to detail," Jin smiled, not realizing he had let another detail slide.

He drove on, the place they had come from must have been far Bri thought to herself as she looked at the surrounding area.

It was a charming place during the day, just as charming as it was during the night.

"Tell me Bri, since the guys already told me all the facts there's to know about you, why did you come here all of a sudden?"

Bri looked at him. His voice was far too soothing for his own good, far too alluring and pleasant.

He seemed yo be hypnotizing her, Bri feeling comforted by his presence. 

"Well, there's been a series of murders going on in the district I was sent to. The investigators set me up to work with Doctor Kim in an attempt to find the cause of death and any evidence that can be taken off the victims to use to bring whoever did it to justice. Thing is, I haven't even met him yet. He's what I like to call, a very mysterious man. He doesn't even have pictures of himself in the records," Bri mumbled cautiously, hoping not to give any more away than they already knew.

"Well, here we are," Jin smiled, parking the car in front of the office before walking over to Bri's side of the car and opening the door for her.

"Thank you."

Jin then left her side to walk to the trunk of his car, opening it up before taking out a white lab coat and a stethoscope.

"Jin?" Bri questioned. He simply placed one of his index fingers to his mouth to hush her.

Winking at her he added, "between you and me, I'm doctor Kim. Not the one you're looking for, but his younger brother. So come here, he's not to know anything about how we met or where I'm staying at. Just follow my lead," he chuckled.

Bri was dumbfounded, but she followed close behind, doing her best not to lose a step while walking towards the double doors. 

"Hello Mr. Kim, your brother will be here shortly-" the secretary Bri had met the night before paused as her eyes fell on Bri.

Bri was also wearing a lab coat, but unlike Jin, who had worn a dress shirt and jeans, she wore her blue scrubs, her hair tied back by a slender elastic.

"Oh, Ms. Bri. I had no idea you had met Mr. Kim. Have you introduced yourself to him yet?"

Bri nodded turning to look at Jin as if she were about to do a full-on ceremony of an introduction.

"No need Ms. Park, I know her well enough to know her name and everything," Jin interrupted, taking the papers Bri had been holding and handing them to the secretary who simply sat back down.

"Jin!" a voice boomed into the small front waiting room.

"Jae!" Jin cheered, turning to the door that sat behind the assistant's front desk. A man who may have been in his early 20's came out, scrubs on like Bri, but with a nice white coat and name tag like Jin.

He looked almost identical to him, his stubble and smile lines being the only things making him look remotely different, a small scar line near his cheek also adding to this.

"Bri, meet my brother Kim Seok Jae. He's four years older than me and will be your mentor of sorts," Jin introduces, making Bri's body shiver.

"So my assumption was correct," she thought, looking at the man standing in front of her carefully.

The man extended his arm, smiling at Bri brightly like his brother had when they first met. He too had the kind and pleasant aurora surrounding him that Jin had. His eyes, however, felt more genuine. While Jin's eyes looked as if they were filled with sorrow and mischieve, his brother looked genuinely kind, a sort of childish playfulness to them. 

"Maybe it's a family thing," she thought.

"Call me Mr. Kim. I'll be your college more than a mentor since I read on your file that you're an expert in our field," he added once she took his hand, shaking it in a mutual agreement of power.

"Tell me Jin, how do you know Miss Bri? I noticed both of you coming in the same car."

"I came here to drop her off. She spent the night with me after a burglar broke into her home. She was living next door so-"

Bri looked at him annoyed, but he had told her to follow his lead so he didn't utter a word about being kidnapped. Bri didn't know whether this lie was enough and wondered why in the world had he lied in the first place. 

"Well thank you for bringing her. Now off you go," Jae smiled annoyed.

Jin walked over to hit his forehead with his finger before turning around to walk out the door, waving goodbye to Bri as he did so.

"He's honestly the biggest knucklehead you'll meet. I know he's treating you well, but I sure hope he's not treating you like a patient. He usually does that with everyone he meets. And he wonders why he can't get a date," Mr. Kim groaned, turning to scan Bri.

She had been rather silent, but she usually was when trying to put together a person's character, add on her raging social anxiety that often put her at a disadvantage when talking to officers and other morticians.

Jae- Mr. Kim looked trustworthy, and compared to Jin his words were more playful and less calculated. There was something about Jin that always had Bri on edge, but Mr. Kim seemed different. He seemed like an actual good man. However, he did seem to have some sort of body language change when Jin had left. Anger? Maybe resentment? Disappointment?

The man sighed, Bri finally finding the word for what she saw. 

"So that's what was odd about him," she mumbled, looking over at the man in front of her.

"He's a therapist isn't he?" she asked.

The man looked at her stunned, his eyes going back to look at the door.

Regret. 

"Let's talk inside. Come with me," Mr. Kim smiled, turning around and leading the way into a small private room behind his secretary. It was a small blocked off office, the walls full of pictures of people, all smiling with family members, but none of them looking like Jae or Jin. It was dark, the walls a deep blue and a small window looking out towards the parking lot area.

"Have a seat," Mr. Kim interrupted Bri's wandering curiosity, motioning for her to sit on a heavy-looking chair in front of his dark wooden desk. She only looked over at him briefly, sitting down before turning her eyes at the pictures once again. Mr. Kim followed her gaze, wondering what was going through her mind, only to see the pictures he had hung up many years prior, some more recent than others.

He smiled sadly.

"Families of the victims. Solved cases to be exact. They give me a sense of purpose and remind me that my job is as important as the investigators behind these crimes. I get many unsolved cases since many of the mortuaries from the city take care of natural causes," he said, attempting to get Bri's attention.

"And the answer to your question, no, Jin isn't a therapist per se. Jin is a lot scarier. He is more of a psychologist and a psychiatrist. He's the more terrifying one of the latter. He isn't really one to try and help you with your emotions, but more of someone who will wiggle himself into your brain, gain your trust, but at the first sign of you being mentally unstable, will lock you in a psychiatric ward," he warned.

That caught Bri's attention, making her turn around looking at Mr. Kim while wondering, was the man in front of her trying to do the same? Or was he lying to call her bluff?

"Tell me, what age range are his patients usually?"

"He's in charge of the young adult division in his ward. We don't talk much to be completely honest, and if I was you I'd have my guard up with him during conversations. He's not completely sane either. Jin had many friends around his age, but if he ever offers his friendship to someone of your age, I'd run the other way. His intentions aren't as pure as his smile," Mr. Kim chuckled, quickly turning his attention back to the files in front of him, his shortlived smile turning into a deep indifference. 

Regret. He regretted something, and Jin was the cause of it.

Turning her head back to the pictures, Bri couldn't help but wonder where she'd end up that night.

Was Jin really as scary as the man in front of her made him out to be?

She doubted it.

"So where do I begin? Bri, I think I know why you're here. Correct me if I'm wrong but does it have to do with the series of events happening in Seoul?"

Bri's heart stopped, her hands going to her lap as she looked at the man in front of her nervously.

There was a sudden silence, an awkward standoff-ish feel in the room. 

"You knew?"

"Yes. The association thinks I'm hiding something from them and to be completely honest, I'm a bit offended. They think I'm conspiring against them with the popular gangs and hackers around these parts. It's been like this since I began focusing on missing persons and crime-related deaths. I have nothing to do with them, but they want someone looking after me, to evaluate me and report back to them. It's like they can't trust me to do my job. It always has been like this with them since I got into this field. We are always at fault when they mess up their investigation. There is only so much I can do with the knowledge I have. Sending a rookie was their best hope at keeping me under their belt. They hoped your naive attitude would-"

"That's enough. You're flattering yourself by calling me a rookie and naive. If you had taken a chance to read my file -as you had stated earlier that you did- you'd see I've done three times the amount of cases you've done, as well as helped solve more than twice the amount of cases you have. Rookie would be giving me, not only the wrong title but also the wrong judgment. I didn't come here under anyone but my own free will to transfer. I have business in Seoul, nothing more," she interrupted, managing to get a hold of courage to defend herself.

"What's your business then?"

"To assist in catching the most infamous murders in Brazil who have come to terrorize the city of Seoul."

He went silent, contemplating the girl in front of him, studying her stern facial expressions in hopes of making her crack. He too had the ability to change his facial expressions to that of Jin when she first met him. He was curious and mischievous. His eyes seemed to dig holes into her skull. 

"So that explains it."

"Explains what?" Bri asked confused. 

Mr.Kim stood up, motioning for her to follow him, his back to her as he acknowledged his secretary and continued on walking.

They walked down a long and cold corridor, the smell of acetone becoming stronger with every step they took. The walls were white, a small railing on the side for easier access to those who were in wheelchairs. His steps were quick, making it a bit hard for Bri to keep up, compared to Jin's calculated smaller steps.

"Two months ago, shipments of people were coming in dead. Three fishermen who had been bringing in goods were found murdered in their own cargo. Scary to say the least for other crew members and fishermen alike. However, it was the state of the bodies that alarmed me the most," he stated. 

His voice had shifted, from the defensive and calm man she had met only a few moments ago, to a concerned professional.

"And the state was?" Bri asked as they entered the final door of the hallway.

Mr. Kim placed some gloves on his hands, placing a plastic eye cover mask on his face before walking over to hand some gloves to Bri from a small cardboard box that had been hanging on a hook next to the door.

The room was familiar, something Bri had seen while studying in medical wards along the coast of Brazil.

It was the place of the morgue where "magic" happened.

Mr. Kim walked over to a small square door positioned along one side of the room walls. There were at least 16 on each row, the most she'd ever seen in a single wall of a morgue. Not counting the other wall, there would have been at least 32 total on one single side of the morgue.

Opening it up, he pulled on the small bed-like frame under the body that laid inside.

"Ribs, and organs. Gone," he said, taking off the cover from the body.

"Fisherman one had his insides replaced with fish hooks all along his spine. This woman here, she had her tongue pierced with one," he mumbled.

The woman in front of her -well the corpse in front of her- had it's eyes wide open. Her eyelids were missing and her hair looked to have been unevenly chopped.

"All done antemortem. The woman had-"

"-it the worse. Yes, I know. It's definitely them," Bri interrupted.

"You don't seem at all shocked. Might you have seen this before?" Mr. Kim asked.

"Yes. I was being trained by the head medical examiner in the Hospital of San Carlos. Let's say my first case was something similar to this one. Murdered fisherman, woman strangled having horrific things done to them antemortem. It was a nightmare at first. Ever since then it made dealing with other cases much easier. Let me guess, you also found an S engraved on their genitals with numerals counting up?"

Mr. Kim nodded, shifting the women's leg to one side, letting Bri come into full view of the atrocity that had been done to her.

"They destroyed her so bad that they must have had to do it on part of her thigh," he mumbled.

"What have the investigation team on the case been able to conclude?" Mr. Kim added, covering the corpse before pushing it back into the hole in the wall he had pulled the corpse out of.

"As far as I know, that there's more than one perpetrator and that most likely this is part of their initiation ritual."

"Sounds plausible. Especially with the amount of variation each one of the victim's wounds have. The amount of mutilation does yell "amateur" in the sense that they've never killed before. I would have to say though, it might have started with a single unsub, but soon, deviated into all of them joining in," he agreed.

"Yes. I thought of that possibility too. Actually Mr. Sousa thinks the men might be getting drugged before letting the newbie rape and hurt the woman. Once he's done, they -for lack of a better term- destroy the evidence and let him kill the men. The engraved parts, however, would have been done by the leader, since they are all identical. The only variation comes from the initial mutilation, and from there we see consistent patterns leading up to the next kill," she added.

Walking over to a clipboard, Mr. Kim began looking through it before handing it to her.

"Color me impressed, Ms. Bri. You have the job. And not only that, my trust. I will warn you, however, don't go walking around alone at night. Those men might know you're here. I hate to say this, but I think staying with Jin would be for the best. At least for now. He may not look it, but he has experience with... self-defense."

"Yes, I've heard. All the people who have been part of the investigation go missing and turn up dead. That includes family members, investigators, police officers, medical examiners, doctors, and even funeral homeowners. I'm well aware that both your life and my life are at risk. I'll probably stay with Jin for now, but I do hope this investigation gets wrapped up quickly enough so I don't have to stay with him for too long. Though, seeing that this has been going on for nearly 3 years now... I don't see much hope for it ending any time soon," Bri sighed.

"Well, let us begin the testing portion of your abilities. For now, worry about filling out that file. I'll talk to Jin about your living arrangements during lunch, that sound okay to you?"

"Yes sir," Bri smiled, turning her head to look at the pages Jae had given her.

"Let us begin."

_____•●•_____

Bri stepped outside, Mr. Kim walking close behind her. It had been a long afternoon, the bright sun she had seen that morning long gone, replaced with the shining moon above her. The air was chilly as she smiled at some of Mr. Kim's jokes. He had been trying to humor her throughout her day, Mr. Kim asking her to call her Jae when out of the office.

"Come on, I promise I won't get mad if you call me Jae out of the office."

"Oh, hey. You guys are finally out," they heard, Jae smiling widely in the direction of the voice.

Bri turned her head towards the front of the small building. Jin had been sitting on the hood of his car waiting for them, his hands inside his white coat.

"Waiting long?" Jae asked.

"Not really. Hey bro, mind if I take Ms. Bri from here, I don't think...the chicken can escape tonight."

"Not at all. I'll be on my way. Make sure to lead the dog on," Jae commented, walking over to his car while Jin walked around the back of his.

Jae opened his trunk, taking a quick glance before closing it. Walking slowly towards the driver's seat, Jin peaked into the read window of the car before giving a thumbs up and turning towards Bri.

"Everything okay?" she asked, getting into the car slowly.

Jin smirked, his sweet and peaceful aura engulfing her as soon as he turned on the car.

"Was that a yes?" she questioned.

"Hold on," he smiled before turning the wheel hastily.

His brother turned with him, the sound of the tires screeching and the smell of gas making Bri nearly pass out. It was a crazy whirlwind of movement, her head flinging towards the car window as she placed her hand on the top handle to hold onto.

That's when she heard it, the sound of firecrackers, a pop pop pop that was undoubtedly the familiar and startling sound of a gun.

"JIN OH MY FUCKING-"

"Don't worry, here," he said calmly, handing her a large set of headphones.

Before she could argue, he placed them on her head and pulled up the volume of his phone which he had placed on the cupholder between the seats, patting her head gently before smiling.

It was a soothing and slow song, calm and gentle, as gentle as him.

(The following is the song I envisioned here. Don't have to play it now since it is like an hour-ish loop of this song. 

https://youtu.be/dkCW7cfrgBs

The gunshots were muffled by the sound of the music, Jin patting her head gently once more as they drove off.

By the time Bri came too, they had arrived at the place she'd be calling home. Her eyes had been shut so tightly that Jin didn't even think of placing a blindfold on her.

It was a swirling mess in Bri's eyes. Everything looked so blurry, her legs wobbling as Jin opened the building door.

She hadn't noticed it that morning, but the building looked like an old warehouse, the outside walls rusted and run down. She could smell the ocean, however, signifying that she was near a seashore or maybe even on it.

"We are home!" Jin yelled, some of the men watching the tv on the couch while the others were on the table eating bowls of cereal.

"About time, I'm starving," one of them grumble loudly, walking over to take a small suitcase Jin had been carrying.

It was Jungkook, his nose, and cheeky smile giving him away easily.

"What, why? Couldn't Yoongi and you cook something up?"

"Not to be an ass or throw anyone under the bus, but Yoongi has been sleeping most of the day. Especially since he had been out with us yesterday scoping out the-"

The guys all rushed from their seats, jumping on Jungkook who had been standing near the stairs that lead to the rooms above, unaware that he'd be tackled down to the floor by five other men.

"How about making pasta for dinner? That sound good to you guys?" Jin interrupted them.

They all looked up from the floor, giving Jin a big thumbs up followed by a grin.

"So, Ms. Bri, we heard you're working under Jin's brother. What's he like?" Jimin asked. 

He had been the first to get up and off the floor to follow Jin to the sink, helping him take some ingredients out to help him with dinner.

"Well, he looks just like Jin, yet older. And he's a lot more laid back and very funny-"

The sound of a knife hitting a cutting board hard made Bri turn in Jin's direction, Jin simply continuing to cut up a chicken breast he had gotten out of the fridge, his face completely blanked of emotions.

"As I was saying, he has a good sense of humor and he can make some sick dad jokes-"

"That's it, I'm going to cut him up-"

"Jin calm down!" Namjoon yelled, Jimin holding Jin back as he yelled out angrily with a knife in hand pointing at the door both Bri and Jin had come in from.

"Did I say something wrong?"

"I wouldn't mention Jae's sense of humor. Jin gets agitated when his humor is questioned or when his brother is complimented for something he thinks he's better at," Taehyung mumbled into Bri's ear.

"I HEARD THAT YOU LITTLE SHIT! I'M NOT AFRAID OF CUTTING YOUR ASS TOO!" Jin yelled angrily.

Bri looked at him for a second before placing her hand on her mouth and beginning to laugh hysterically. It was the first time she had seen such genuine expressions from him, nothing like the robotic smile he usually had on.

"Whether he liked it or not, the two are extremely similar in my opinion. Sheesh Mr. Kim, I didn't think you had this side to you," Bri mocked.

Jin stood up straight, adjusting his dress shirt before rolling up his sleeves and turning towards the cutting board he had left unattended.

"Ms. Bri, if you'll be staying with us, it's best you know the real king of humor, and that's me."

"Hardly," Yoongi muttered from the couch he had gone to sit down at, Jin turning to glare at him before continuing to cut once Yoongi looked away in fear.

"The first thing you should know is that I'll be giving you a ride to and fro from your workplace. On the days I can't, one of the members will go out to fetch you. Rule number one, don't tell Jae about where you're living. He'll try and call the cop- I mean, he'll try and get you to stay with him and his wife Hani, who I promise, isn't as sweet as he makes her out to be. Second-" he paused, turning around to open a bag of fettuccine that Jimin had placed on the counter.

"All our rooms and the third floor you are prohibited to enter. It's our workplace and we'd like for you to respect our privacy," Namjoon added.

Bri nodded, looking for an empty seat to take on the dining room table.

"Also, you must help with groceries, rent, and wifi. If you use it, you help pay for it. We will bring the furniture from your apartment once it's cleared and we will place it in your new room. Until then, you will share a room with Jiwon. Anytime you need to buy something, from clothes to essentials such as soap, shampoo, etc., you'll need to take one of us with you," Jimin added.

They all looked to be thinking of something to say, a rule to add, or even a way to help her out but going silent for a long period of time.

"Well, I'll do as you guy says as long as I also get some time for myself. Stop snooping around my life, please. I don't want strangers to know more about me then I know about them. You guy's sound like stalkers when you blurt out random facts about me."

The boys simply smirked, Jin finishing up his cooking before walking over to the dining table where a box of pizza sat abandoned and empty.

"Pizza for lunch? Again?" he grumbled, moving it to one side while picking up glasses, placing them in the sink and beginning to wash them.

"Hey, if you aren't going to leave any extra food then don't complain when we order shit okay?" Yoongi mumbled.

"I dare you to say that again!" Jin shouted, the guys beginning to intervene between the two. It was odd to Bri how they could act so casual with one another. She wondered if they knew what he was. He seemed to have forgotten himself, beginning to act like an immature man rather than a stable one. She found it compelling, to say the least, no traces of the scary man Jae has spoken off in front of her.

He actually seemed to enjoy their company.

"Hey Jin, I have a question for you. Who were the men shooting at us, and is Jae okay?" Bri finally interrupted.

"Shooting at you guys?" Namjoon asked. He has stopped what he was doing, eyeing the rest of the men intensely before motioning his head back. They all filed out of the room, all but Jin moving back to the kitchen to plate the food he had finished making.

"Bri, I don't believe those men who shot at us were part of the AIM group. They seemed wildly random and by looks of their weaponry, foreign. Do you happen to know what's going on?" Jin questioned back, answering her own confusion with his own curiosity.

"They aren't from Korea. As far as I know, they are Brazilian serial killers, or to be more precise, gang members."

"Gang members?? The hell??!! This woman is not only getting us targeted by AIM but also some serial killers?" Jungkook yelled as they came back after disappearing upstairs.

"Not my fault okay!" Bri screamed back. 

Jin placed some cups down, filling them with some soda from the fridge before placing the food down.

Each on of the guys sat down in their seats silently, what Jin explained was in the order of their age but that often got mixed up when they were too lazy to sit in the order they were meant to sit in.

"Jae had mentioned his research was going to be dangerous, but this is a bit extreme. He wasn't very specific, hey Bri, while we eat, why don't you tell us what's going on?

Bri sighed, taking a drink from her cup to clear up her throat before starting.

"Back in Brazil three years ago, a series of serial killings began to keep the residents of the area inside their own homes for years, they feared the men who we soon began to call the living Corpse Association. They went around the place killing people for no good reason, not that murdering anyone as gruesomely as they did ever have a justification. Gruesome is the kindest way to describe the scene. Those monsters are vicious killers with no remorse. Women and children alike. They don't care I tell you," Bri mumbled, picking up the fork to get some strands of pasta onto it.

"And how does that even correlate with you getting attacked with firearms?" Jimin asked a bit sternly, unusual since it was the first time Bri had seen him act like that.

"Anyone and everyone connected to the murders, such as corners, investigators, families of the victims and even simple bystanders become targets to these groups. Jae and I, unfortunately, have now become the new targets."

The guy's fork fell on their plates.

"We have to warn your brother Jin hyung! What if he gets attacked?"

"Calm down Jungkook, Jae is well aware of this. Although he kept the details of the investigation at a minimum, I was able to sneak a bit of info through your computers. Jae's wife is an investigator at the station and has the whole house wired up and protected. Although it may not be as high tech as some of our stuff, it's much better than what the murderers expect for them to have. They are far better prepared than those who had no idea what was going on. As for my niece, Hani has sent her to a private boarding school in Germany, just until things settle down. Since she just turned 12 they hope she'll do fine in the new environment."

"But isn't Hani pregnant?" Taehyung asked.

"She is only a couple months in. She still has a good chunk before she's laid off the team on maternity leave. I think that's when she plans on bringing back Hye Jeon from the boarding school. Who I'm more concerned about is Ms. Park right now. I was going to go back and check on her. She's Jae's assistant and honestly, I'm a bit worried. She usually stays there late, and she must have heard the gunshots. Knowing her, she'd probably run to see what happened, and if Bri is correct that the killers go for bystanders as well, she's in great danger too," Jin added, finishing the last of his pasta before turning to Bri.

Bri nodded, agreeing with him while watching the other guys' expressions.

"Hm...give me one second," Hoseok mumbled. He walked over to Jin, taking his wallet before running up the stairs followed by Jimin.

"Hey! You better not take any money! I'm broke at the moment," Jin yelled at them.

The rest of the guys' seemed uneasy, continuing to eat as they waited for the other men to return. Bri couldn't help but become worried as well.

She had completely forgotten about the frail woman sitting at the front desk, probably scared and worried about Jae and Bri's safety.

"As far as we can see, the place is deserted boss, but that doesn't mean she's okay. I'll go with you to scope the place out," Hoseok offered, putting on a leather jacket that had been hanging by the door.

Namjoon stood up, slamming his palm onto the top of the table, looking at them all with a sour expression, his bangs sticking to the sides of his face.

"I don't want to sound like I'm intruding, but if you would be okay with it, Jin could we come with you as well," he said, almost like a command more than a suggestion, Jin smiling sweetly before humming a yes.

"In that case, we will all be going," Bri sated proudly, gaining a small amount of courage in order to be able to say it.

"Ms. Bri, you'd be safer here. Being with us might only put you in harm's way," Jin tried to convince her.

"Sorry, but other than you and me, Ms. Park doesn't know the guys. If she was to see one approaching her she'd most definitely scream. With both of us there, she will at least know that these big goofs you call friend are actually gentle and not as threatening as they look."

"We look threatening?" Tae chuckled.

"Well, two of you do. The rest are either too soft looking to hurt a fly, or simply too pale to be considered human. Yoongi might seem like a reanimated corpse in her eyes."

"I'm not even that pale!" he shouted, Jin grabbing two keys from the keyholder that rested to the left of the rusty door.

"Fine. Jimin, Jungkook, and Yoongi, stay at her side okay? Namjoon and Hoseok could you take the...you know..and keep an eye on the place? Taehyung and I will go to split up and look for her in case...she ran off and is hiding," Jin mumbled.

"Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go!"

🐨Again, I have no idea if this will be well received but what matters is that this book is for one person in particular so if you complain that the main protagonist is too descriptive, too bad, she is supposed to be. Someone paid to be inserted into this AU and I will most definitely describe her as best as I can.

I hope you enjoyed it despite my rant.
