23. Together

When you try to come for me, I keep on flourishing,
And he sees the universe when I'm the company,
It's all in me."

[JUNGKOOK POV]

I saw Y/N calling someone so I asked her whom she was calling. I bet I never saw someone this brave and something this rigorous in life! I never thought she would be this strong and courageous, I was truly amazed.

"The cops will reach here in an hour or so. You should sit in the car, I'll deal with further things." She explained.

"I don't want to, why are you making me escape?" I enquired perplexed.

"Sir, I don't want you to get involved in this stuff. Moreover, if they see your face then definitely you'll be caught amongst a million questions. I don't want your peaceful life to get disturbed like this." These words made my heart rush at its speed, I swear never in my life had someone cared this much for me.

"Y/N, what about you then? I can't leave you alone at all costs!"

I saw the wounds on her face, blood oozing out from her right hand, bruises on her head, busted lips and I'm aware even her back had some injuries. She needed immediate treatment, certainly, I can't leave her in this state. My heart clenched looking at her dreaded state, what was more sickening was the fact that it all happened because of me. I'm equally responsible for this and I must take responsibility.

"For God's love, understand! What will I say to the cops if they ask why is a superstar kidnapped like this, when I, myself don't have an answer?!" She rolled her eyes irritated.

"Then let's find an answer." I said glimpsing towards some of the men who were gaining their consciousness.

"So you'll stay here?" She looked in the direction where I was glancing and asked.

"Yes, I want to help you." I instantly replied no scared anymore, God knows where I got that enthusiasm.

"If your scaredy soul can see what I'm going to do with them then stay." She smirked and spoke in an attempt to shoo me away but I didn't want to leave her alone with these creepy, psychotic creatures. Even though they're injured and Y/N is capable of dealing with them, still I don't want to leave her alone.

"Do whatever you want except killing and wait a minute."

I went near her and took out a white handkerchief from my pocket and started to get even closer to her, to wipe the blood from her lips. It's painful for me to see it like that.

"W-What are you doing?" She asked getting uncomfortable.

"There's blood oozing out from the corner of your lips." I muttered caressing her cheek with my hand and wiping the blood. Then, I carefully wrapped that handkerchief on the wound in her hand, and she froze at her position by this simple move. But what made me worry was the deep cut on her hand.

"Your hand is bleeding so much! You didn't have to hold that knife." I gazed at the wound and then at her, only to find her smiling sheepishly.

"He  would have stabbed you, I don't want to see you in pain anymore." She said with full confidence and so much care that made me flustered.

"Don't risk your life ever again, I won't be able to forgive myself if something happens to you." My eyes glistened when I looked at her.

'I'm afraid I can't guarantee that.' She thought to herself.

"Pass me that chair."

She pointed towards the chair and took the gun from one of the man's pockets. I pushed the chair towards her while she took off her blazer revealing her white fitted high-neck top.

"You sure you can witness the next things? Hey! You listening?" She asked me, who was distracted by something else.

Gosh! I'm such a weirdo. Who gets distracted in a situation like this?

One and only- Me!

I got mesmerized by her figure. Her biceps were revealed from her fitted top. On top of that, she appeared like a queen sitting on that chair with one of her legs crossed on the other, holding a gun. She didn't have her specs on, that's why she was looking even different. She looked scary yet vulnerable at the same time. I was totally mesmerized by her charm.

"Huh? Yes. I can witness those, I don't want to leave you alone in this creepy place." I answered when she asked the same question again.

"Fine." She nodded and then bent on one knee and harshly plucked the tape out of, one of the man's mouth. She his hair in her fist severely while slapping him hard and then she put her gun near his face, stroking his jaw with the weapon.

"L-Leave me." The man begged making me wonder how much of a coward is he? Just a few minutes ago he was ready to murder us and now, just with a few punches and blows he's begging.

"You got scared this easily? I'm surprised! Are you really a part of Black Bullet?" Y/N laughed at his cowardness.

"Why did you kidnap him?" There came a harsh slap on his left cheek.

"Who ordered you?" Another slap on the right cheek, I bet her fingerprints were printed on his cheeks.

"Still not speaking huh?" Losing her temper she shot at his leg. I got frightened and covered my ears as a reflex, this all is alien to me, even though I agreed to stay with her, this is not something I can witness.

"Y-Y/N, no killing p-please!" I stuttered, still not opening my eyes.

"Shut your mouth up!" She ordered agitated and turned her dark eyes towards me showing utmost rage, still harshly holding the man's hair. It felt as if my lips got sealed with glue when she shouted at me and I took my steps back a little, she's not someone I can mess with. She's from a totally different world.

"Lee Jun Woo! He ordered us to kill Jungkook!" The man finally spit out the person's name, and my eyes shot open listening to the familiar name.

Lee Jun Woo. Chairman of YJN Entertainment? What enmity does he have with me?

"Why? Tell me why bastard!" Y/N again harshly slapped across the man's face, his face turned purplish due to bruises. Deserving for what he did to Y/N.

"W-we were just ordered to kill we don't know the reason." He cried out.

"You think I'll believe your trash?" She pointed the gun at his head and threatened to pull the trigger, not taking any of his said information seriously.

"Kill me if you want! I s-swear we don't know why!" A cry of horror left from the man's mouth, I think he really doesn't know anything.

"Useless prick on earth." She tsked.

[Y/N POV]

I left the man's hair and pushed him to the side and got near the man with whom I fought first, before entering this building.

"Who's your boss?" He shivered looking everywhere but at me.

"We don't know that either!" Another man joined making me lose my temper.

"Fuck! Crazy bastards! Seriously, is there anything you piece of filth know?!" I snapped his head with the back of my gun and started kicking him mercilessly in the stomach, poisonous words making their way out of my mouth. My anger won't calm down this easily, I want the fucking answers.

"Ahh! No please!" The man coughed out blood whilst screaming due to pain, I smirked looking at his state, he fucking deserves it. Jungkook tried to stop but I glared at him with fire in my eyes, he remained silent after that.

"This is for kidnapping him!" I slapped him again.

"This is for scaring him!" Tightly clenching his hair, I forcefully made him turn his head where Jungkook was standing, making him see whom he dared to raise his hands on.

"This is for every single tear which came out of his eyes! Speak asshole! Who's your master?" I pulled him closer still clenching his hair, I can make it out by looking at his face that a bone or two has been broken inside his system and I'm glad that I did it. This filthy being dared to hit the man I love, dared to raise his hands on my dignity, thus I'll give him hundred times the pain he gave to us.

"W-we really have never seen his face! We just know his right-hand man. I-I-have a picture of him in my phone." The man spilled the details, my question wasn't answered but at least I did get some important information.

I snatched the phone from his pocket, again giving him a harsh punch in the leg, and looked at the picture of the so-called 'right-hand man' of the ultimate boss. If the situation I'm caught up in wasn't enough to scare me, this picture made the ground disappear below my feet. Jungkook too saw the picture, but as expected he didn't know a thing.

"He's the guy who killed me in my last life!" I thought, my eyes opened wide horrified. For a couple of minutes, I stood stunned in the same position, millions of questions revolving in my head making me sick to the core.

All of this... Is it planned? Are we... trapped?

"Y/N do you know him?" Jungkook's question brought me back to earth. I instantly turned my head towards the last man who was capable of speaking making him quiver, with mixed emotions rushing in my head.

"How do you know me?" I choked his throat, my patience breaking its limits.

"W- we know you because many of our men got arrested because of you. You collected evidences against them, we were planning to kill you after him." He spilled stammering like a scared puppy.

Is that the reason this man, in the picture, killed me in my last life? If yes, one of the mysteries got solved. I pondered deeply gazing at the picture, that face imposed into my memory, I'll never forget it.

"So you're the criminals supporting YJN? That's why no one was ready to speak against that fucking Lee Jun Woo's son who raped a girl! How many more people are supporting YJN?" I enquired, not in a mood to leave the man's neck.

"There are m-many men of ours. We just know this much! The only person who could give you full i-information about all the w-whereabouts of the gang is 'Poison'- the right-hand man." I finally left his neck, he coughed holding that area, trying to breathe.

Without getting answers to most of my questions, I was getting impatient and so, I left those guys for some time to encapsulate all the shocking revelations. I rubbed my temples when Jungkook caught my attention.

"It's unbelievable! How come such a popular entertainment company never gets caught for this grave crime?" His jaw dropped, unable to believe what he just heard.

Another question that might not have an answer.

I didn't speak anything and shot another man in the shoulder, whilst gazing straight into Jungkook's eyes, as expected he was beyond surprised. The man groaned and I tilted my head toward him.

"Spit more information, else next time this bullet wouldn't go four point five inches away." I got near him and put the gun on his chest.

"It will strike directly into your stone heart dickhead!" I clicked my tongue into my cheek.

"We really don't have any other information please l-leave me, I-I beg you!" One of the men spoke beseeching for his dear, good-for-nothing life.

"This is how that girl also have begged you to leave her right? But you not only raped her but mercilessly hanged her to death, you fucker!" My eyes darkened speaking facts whilst playing with the metallic object.

"Of all the criminals who got arrested, you were one of them right?" I punched on his face making it bleed even more. Oh! How much I wish to cut his thing and shove it inside his mouth, satan must be smirking looking at my actions and I'm not afraid of going to hell because a devil is needed to bash out another evil, from this hell on Earth.

We'll have a nice tea time in hell Mr. Satan, but here I'm the satan for heartless humans like these. 

"Y-you remember?!" He asked goggle-eyed.

"I never forget the case and face. December 2019, found guilty of murder and rape and sentenced to life imprisonment. Spit some words of enlightenment asshole! How did you get out? HOW?!" I brutally twisted the index and middle finger of his right hand backwards while pointing my gun near his chest.

"No! I-I'll speak. Ah!" He cried out in distress, my hand still twisting his fingers, their screams won't affect me.

"O-our gang have connections with the police. We g-get out easily-"

"Die filth!" I didn't let him speak further and was about to shoot him but Jungkook stopped me by tightly holding my hand.

"Y/N NO! I DON'T WANT YOU TO BE A MURDERER!" He yelled clenching my wrist.

"WHY CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND? They are notorious gangsters who committed sins that can't even be mentioned in words! The cops want them dead or alive anyways." I didn't want to shout at him but the situation made me raise my voice, I clenched my jaw furiously, and my eyes reddened due to anger.

"But-"

"Sara died because of them! They were involved in that incident! What was her mistake? Just because she was a girl they think they can do anything? What would you do if that happened to someone close to you? Huh? tell me!" I hit his chest with my hand pushing him backwards, he went speechless.

"I bet you can't even imagine those things happening with your mother, sister or your w-wife!" The last words came out more like a whisper loud enough for him to hear, I turned my head to the side when I said those words.

[JUNGKOOK POV]

I slowly left her hand and my eyes darkened, even the thought of something like this happening to the women I know angered me and Y/N... I can't even imagine that! I got filled with disgust, hate and extreme anguish towards these people who are a stigma to humanity.

The scenes of Sara, her smile, her laugh, her small little family with her parents, everything started rewinding in my mind. She had enormous dreams, an amazing life, and a beautiful family. Everything got shattered into pieces that can never be joined again.

Moreover, I got rage hit my last nerve when the realization hit me. If I didn't come on time, maybe they would have done the same thing to Y/N. My eyes started to get teary, no not because I was scared but because the uncontrollable anger was making its way through the warm salty liquid. They must be punished for their sins, the same way they did to those innocents, a tooth for a tooth.

"If you don't want, I won't kill them. But just think for once, about those innocent people who lost their lives and their beautiful families got destroyed. Do you even have any idea how many parents lost their daughters, sons, even small children! Many became an orphan because of these crazy, heartless, dick-headed creatures!" She shaked me by holding my shoulders bringing me out of my thoughts, the only thing that matters now for me is...

Revenge.

For murdering my sister.

For hurting my wife. Even if it's for namesake, but she's my wife, the woman who risked her life to save mine.

"They deserve to die." I spoke in a rare deep voice, making her hold the gun. I'm not afraid of being called a 'murderer' if it involves thrashing out people like these.

"It's an easy death for you! Goodbye, Jagiya." She turned towards the men and shot them one by one.

I flinched hearing the sounds of reloading the gun and loud gunshots. I didn't open my eyes throughout the process. Though I feel guilty because I can't kill them myself but certainly somewhere deep inside my heart, I feel light. I can feel a heavy load has been removed. Maybe if Sara's seeing this from heaven, her soul will rest in peace.

[Y/N POV]

"Don't open your eyes, I'm afraid you might faint!" He nodded at my statement.

I took his hand in mine and held it tightly and got him outside the room in an empty area, he slowly opened his eyes and as expected- He puked! He got to the side and I started patting his back.

"Hey! It's ok, take it easy." I softly patted his back and after a few minutes, he got normal. He supported his back with the wall and sat there for some time, probably trying to engulf what all he just witnessed.

"You fine now?" I asked concerned placing my hands on his shoulders, he was breathing heavily.

"I'm f-feeling better."

I can see tears in his eyes, he was trying so hard to not cry. I securely wrapped my arms around him and gave him a tight hug. This was the thing he needed the most right now and started caressing his back.

"Cry as much as you want, it's going to be alright very soon."

"I couldn't protect Sara. She-"

"Shh... It's alright. Everything happens for a reason, don't blame yourself. If she was alive I'm sure she couldn't see you cry like this. I know somewhere up there she's happy, very happy that her brave brother is fighting for her." I gave a small smile, parting from the hug.

I wiped his tears with my sleeve. No matter how people portray him as strong, and muscular but today I saw, deep inside he's very soft like a cotton ball. After some minutes of emotional session, I finally spoke.

"I think you should go now, the cops might arrive anytime." I requested him to go but no, this man has reached the epitome of stubbornness.

"No, I won't leave you alone!" He slowly got up from his position and held my hand.

"Y/N, you got here because of me, you fought for me, and you even got injured. I'm not inconsiderate of a person to leave you like this. We'll go out together." With a firm hold on my injured hand, he expressed his concern making me blush at his words, they were melodramatic yet passionate at the same time.

AUTHOR'S NOTE:
I tried to give this a 'powerful' vibe, I don't know if you guys felt it or not. ;)
