Chapter 02
Y/n : 18 years old
Y/n pov.
Revenge
The word sliced through my mind, pulling me out of my nightmare that has been causing me sleepless nights for the last three years. My eyes fluttered opened as I struggled into a sitting position. I wiped the bead of sweat off my forehead as I took deep breaths. Just then, my phone ringed.
"Hey Y/n. You doing okay in Korea?" Jisoo Unnie asked over the phone. Right. I just forgot Jennie and Jisoo went to America for some business stuff.
"Yup. I'm totally fine." I replied.
"Quit lying. You would not have picked up so quickly if you're not sleeping. It's 1: 07 am in Korea. What's keeping you up? More nightmares?" Jisoo Unnie guessed. I hummed in reply as I ran my fingers through my hair.
"Why did you call though. You don't call this late unless there are some tasks you need me to complete."
"Oh yea! I almost forgot. One of the spies are in Korea right now and he is near the park behind our house. Could you help finish him? Jennie would sent you the details later."
"Okay."
"I'll leave you to get ready now. Byeeeee!"
I sat my phone on the nightstand before changing out of my pajamas into a pair of tight-fitted black jeans and pulled a slightly oversized black sweater on. I secured a dagger to my thigh sheath and put on my favorite black sneakers. While waiting for Jennie Unnie to send the details, I pulled my dark hair into a sleek waterfall braid.
Ding! I opened the notification Jennie sent. I got up from the bench and headed to XXX. I spotted a middle aged guy dressed in black looking around suspiciously before walking down a dark alley. Yup, that's him. I followed him swiftly as I pulled my cap onto my head.
"Took you long enough." I heard a guy say in English. He had a crisp Australian accent and he had several other people standing on his left and right. Eight of them in total, I counted.
"You said Lux was following you right? Where is she?" The same guy asked. He was probably the leader.
Wait... How did he know I was following him?
"She's here." The middle-aged man replied in Korean before using his flash light and shinning in my direction. I immediately swung myself onto the rooftop using the handle at the side. Phew, that was close.
"Where did she go? I was sure she was following me! Jennie gave her a mission!" The middle aged guy exclaimed.
"I'm sure she is here, she is just hiding." Another guy with similar Aussie accent but with a deeper voice and freckles replied casually.
"Chan and Felix please speak in Korean we have no idea what you're talking about." The guy their left poked them.
The leader chuckled, switching back to Korean, "Lux, reveal yourself, we know you are here." I debated for a moment, should I go down?
"You may go now. Thank you for your help." The leader told the middle aged guy. What now? Are those eight kids gonna kidnap me or what? I snapped my focus back on the middle age guy. Oh *, he is going away. Without second thought, I jumped off the low roof with the help of the tree and landed on my feet. I grabbed the dagger from my thigh sheath as I used my other hand to grab the middle age guy's shoulder. The middle aged guy dogged successfully but collided with a wall. He swung his fist towards my head which I avoided effortlessly but his fist hit my cap, causing it to fall onto the ground. I cursed silently before kicking him in the stomach making him fall onto the ground with a loud thud. I stabbed the dagger into him from the back. He then collapsed with a groan.
The leader clapped his hands, with an impressed expression. "Not bad coming from a girl. You're quite skillful, Lux." The leader said as he and the other seven guys surrounded me.
I blew out a breath and clicked my tongue, “You're pretty smart too. Luring me out by putting on a "show", asking that guy to leave. How are you so sure that I would follow him?"
"Well, from what we learnt about you. You're Park Chaeyoung’s younger sister. You’re also someone who is a bit reckless and you would always complete your mission no matter what. Well, that's kinda normal since you're a kid. And kids always don't think before they act. Sometimes I wonder what they even use their brain for. Isn't that right, Park Y/n?" The tallest of the group stated in a cold tone.
"First if all I'm not a kid. I'm already eighteen. And how do you even know my full name?" I asked, deciding to ignore the fact that he called me "reckless" and "don't use my brain".
"Children don't get to ask questions." The tall guy snorted as he rolled his eyes. Yup, just another * with insanely handsome visuals but rude and just plain rude. Wait did I say he looked handsome? No way, Y/n you must be out of your mind.
"Hyunjin." The leader warned. That tall guy—Hyunjin mumbled a quick apology. "Anyways, Y/n. You were on a mission and what a coincidence. We are on one too. I'm sure you're smart enough to guess what it is." The leader continued.
I moved back a step.
They moved a step closer.
"Don't worry,"
I moved back a step.
They moved a step closer.
"We won't hurt you."
I moved back a step.
They moved a step closer.
"Um...I have something urgent going on, I have to go now." I said before whipping around and running in the opposite direction. "*. Let's spilt up." I heard the leader say. I took a sharp turn and hid behind one of the trees. I counted five people running past me. I waited there for another minute and no one showed up. "maybe they went in another direction..." I thought as I stepped out from behind the tree and crashed into someone. I mumbled a quick apology and looked up and came face to face with Hyunjin. Well, *.
"Thought you could get away? He smirked. My eyes widened as I attempted to run but Hyunjin was way too fast. He grabbed my wrist and pulled me backwards. Making my back collide with his chest. He then covered a cloth over my mouth and nose. I tried not to breathe it in as I knew that it was soaked in chloroform. I tried twisting my wrist out from his grasp but to no avail.
"Stop fighting." Hyunjin whispered in my ear. I felt his lips brush my earlobe—I'm pretty sure I was dreaming. The last thing I remember seeing is the pale crescent moon shinning like a silvery claw in the night sky before I lost consciousness.
