Morden glances into his rearview mirror and smirks at himself. "If you'd rather I put you in the trunk, I can."

Haknyeon pauses in his movement to shoot a glare at the man. His mouth is taped up once again and his wrists are taped above him to the safety bar. His legs are also taped together. At least it's not the chair he's sitting in anymore.

"Your glare sends me a message of 'fuck you.' But it's good to know you still have fight in you. You should save your strength, you'll need it soon." Morden's eyes slip from the mirror and Haknyeon goes back to trying to break his arms free from the adhesive. He continues to speak, ignoring the shallow, focused muffled grunts coming from the backseat. "So, I'm sure you're wondering what's going on now?"

Haknyeon gives a loud grunt as though it is meant as a response.

"I had a lot of ideas for this part. Devdan did too. He suggested that we throw you into the ocean or into a deep body of water and have you possibly drown. We figured we'd give Ava a chance to save you. But I thought that was too grim and Disney-ish. So I suggested that we stick you at the end of a maze in the middle of Seoul and have her try to find her way through to get to you. But that one sounded like it would take too long and not be as fun."

Haknyeon rolls his eyes, feeling his strength starting to wane.

"So Devdan made another suggestion. Something about actually kidnapping Shinwon and doing like a Batman thing, where Ava would have to pick and save only one. Too much technicality and possibility of error to accomplish in reality though. So that left me to put forth a second option and this one is the one that we decided on."

Haknyeon shallows hard as Morden's dark, glittering eyes once more find the mirror and bore into his.

Just then, the passenger door opens up and Devdan gets in.

"That was fun! You shoulda seen her face! Oh and, I think I've scarred Shinwon, Seungkwan and Jinho! Literally." He turns around and shoots Haknyeon a wave. "Not sure if she saw me or not when I left though."

Morden chuckles. "Doesn't matter, does it? We have time on our hands and that's what we will need."

"Also, what she'll need."

"And him," Morden says, nodding at Haknyeon. "I told him to save his energy. Probably should also tell him to save his breath too."

Haknyeon's eyes go wide with terror. They aren't serious! NO! He finds a sudden strength and determination and yanks at the bar, hoping the tape will snap. But all he does is make the bar squeak with noise.

"Let's go!" Devdan says, chuckling and smirking as he pulls his door shut.
