Chapter 38
Jin walked to his team and Hoseok to his. Yoongi lowered his gaze, 'I should probably not do this...'
Jin called them to the other side of the maze and spoke, "Let us strategize but first let us get our weapons." Jin called them one by one to get the paintball guns.
He had paused as Yoongi walked forward, he cocked his head at him. "I think you should take the front team."
Yoongi narrowed his eyes, but that wouldn't be fun would it? "Yes, Mr Kim."
He took his gun from Jim and walked to the back of the crowd. Jim handed the last gun out and took out a small map. "I have layered out the vantage point so that we can capture the most flags."
The group had listened intently to what he was saying. Yoongi wasn't paying attention his mind had already strategised on what he wanted to do.
He wanted to meet Unmei somewhere and ask a few of her coloured paint so that he could take a few sneak rounds at Jin.
Then hell would break loose as it would not be friendly fire but enemy fire. If it would only be so easy but he hoped Unmei would corporate with his plan.
When this was over he wanted to talk with her again something she said this morning was gnawing at him.
"Are you ready!"
Yoongi blinked so it was time to go. He was getting tired at this initiation. Couldn't they just make it one more day and then do the party?
"I can't hear you!"
Some mumbles went around, so Yoongi wasn't the only one who was getting tired.
They entered the maze, Jin walked to Yoongi. "So pick your forefront and then let's get some flags."
Jungkook stopped at the University, he had 30 seconds to get to the meeting place with the sniper. He turned off the car and climbed out, the university was quiet; 'Good.'
He took a looks around and his eyes fell to a stadium. That was where he needed to go, he began running the sounds from around him began to zone out.
The wind was tugging at his ears, the stadium was getting closer and he ran up the stairs. His breathing came in hard, a man turned to him. "You are late Jungkook."
His chest fell and rose quickly, "I am sorry, Shimano but..."
He shook his head, "No, buts. Tell me about your plan."
Jungkook nodded, he saw that his weaponry was already set up and he walked closer to the window to see what their layout would be.
"I want you to take a shot towards the maze, maybe fire randomly so there is panic so we can divide the people."
Shimano quirked his eyebrows, "You want to cause mass panic? That is very dangerous."
Jungkook let out a sigh, yes it would be dangerous but what did he suggest then? Go directly for the target? "What do you suggest, Shimano?"
Shimano crossed his arm, "We should avoid mass panic, I think we should target four people."
Jungkook started pacing, they could hear the excited voice down on the field. "Your plan sounds better," he took out a picture and handed it to Shimano, "This is your primary target."
Shimano took the picture of Jin, "Wait you want me to take a shot at a Yakuza?"
Jungkook paused, "Didn't the sarge brief you?"
Shimano shook his head. "If he did, I wouldn't be here... Are you barking mad? This is Goro's boy."
Jungkook nodded, "I know... But I have to save his life, to get closer to him."
Shimano dropped the picture. "You have 10 minutes then I am leaving."
Jungkook stood there flabbergasted, "10 minutes?"
Shimano turned his back on him and ready his sniper rifle. "Yes, then I leave."
Jungkook ran from the hiding point to the maze, Shimano was a different kind of character and ex-yakuza. He got to the entrance of the maze, it was time to get into Jin's circle.
Yoongi motioned with his fingers to the group that was following him, the other team was near and not keeping quiet. He heard a small voice, "If you don't keep quiet we will get shot at."
That was Unmei, his heart skipped a beat. He looked at his team to show them they should stay while he went around, sneaking up on the other team.
Unmei's team was walking forward slowly before she headed to far he grabbed her arm. She let out a small gasped as she turned her head in his direction.
He placed his fingers at his lips and she nodded. Her team went ahead without her. She parted her lips, "What are you doing?"
Yoongi grinned, "I would like to have a few of your paint bullets."
She rolled her eyes, "What on earth for?"
Yoongi held out his hand. "I will tell you later so please..."
Unmei pursed her lips as she took out a few paint bullets. "I don't think that I want to know."
Yoongi took them from her, "Thank you Unmei."
She looked over her shoulder to her team that was making noise as they walk. "Do me a favour."
"Anything." His eyes followed the direction she was looking at.
"Get them out of the game."
Yoongi smirked, "I will." He let out a whistle and his team ambushed them, he mouth at Unmei, "Run."
She took off in the opposite direction. Yoongi opened his paintball gun and replaced his bullets for the red ones. He separated himself from his team and went on the hunt for Jin.
Jungkook counted down in his mind, okay Shima I would have blanks in his sniper rifle. I would have to scout which way he would be going, he glanced up at the perch that Shimano was sitting on.
He looked at the sun and then felt the wind. He knew what to do, he ran into the maze as some students come out covered in paint, he saw that most were blue paint.
He took a few corners when the first shot ran through the sky. His time was coming to a close, 'Where could he be?'
Yoongi paused as he heard a sound whistle through the air. That was a bullet, he abandoned his mission on finding Jim and Hoseok that he ran back the way he came. 'Unmei!'
Jin always sneaking up on Hoseok, there was a scream in the air. He looked back his ear pickled, what was that sound?
A second shot ran through the air, it missed Hoseok with a few millimetres and Jin's eyes widened. 'What was going on?'
Jungkook heard it, people around him were busy running past him making it difficult to weave through them. Shimano was making every shot count but Jungkook was not near him yet.
He turned another corner when he heard voices, "Hoseok! What- what-"
"I have no idea, sir."
He had found them, now only Jim had to do was get in the line of fire... His thoughts weren't even out yet and Jin was in the line of fire. Jungkook listened closely as the bullet whistled, he ran at top speed and tackled Jin to the ground.
The bullet missed, Hoseok stood there with a surprised look on his face. "Yamato?"
Yamato pushed himself up from the ground, Jin was still laying on the dirt. He reached his hand towards Jin to help him up.
Jin rolled on his back and blinked, he reached for Jungkook's outstretched hand. "Someone should explain what has happened."
Jungkook helped him up, "I got word that your life might be in danger, sir. So I have come to the university."
Hoseok stood next to him, "It was a gold thing you did, Yamato."
Jin nodded and then took a look around, the maze was empty. "I guess we should just call it a day and then stop this initiation.
"That would be for the best, Jin."
Jungkook turned his gaze to Hoseok, so informal yet formal. Jin took a step forward and placed his hand on Jungkook's shoulder. "Thank you for saving my life, we will talk back at the mansion."
Jungkook nodded, "Yes, sir. I will take my leave."
Hoseok gave him the thumbs up so that only he saw and walked a few steps ahead, "I will rally the freshmen."
He didn't stay to hear Jin's approval. Jin followed after Hoseok. Jungkook took out his phone to find a message.
"I have done what you have asked, never contact me again if it is business with the Yakuza."
Jungkook only replied.
"Thank you."
He walked from the maze and disappeared to the parking lot. His mission had gone well, now he will be welcomed as one of Jin Kim's men.
Yoongi was running frantically towards the other side of the maze. The shooting had stopped, this was weirding him out and here he thought it would be a normal university day.
He found Unmei crouched down behind a makeshift rock, she was holding her shoulder. He approached slowly. "Unmei are you alright?"
She turned her head to him, "I am... Something just grazed my shoulder."
He knelt in front of her, "Let me take a look."
She lifted her hand, it was a tiny graze and it was not bleeding. Yoongi's eyes caught something glinting in the sun. "Let me take you to the infirmary."
She nodded and stood up, "What happened?"
Yoongi reached out for the thing that glinted, it was a blank bullet. "I have no idea."
He pocketed the bullet, he would investigate later, he walked with Unmei to the exit of the maze.
Unmei didn't look at him and kept her gaze fixed on the ground. Maybe she should tell him but... Her family. If she told him would he be able to help her?
"Yoongi?" She stopped walking and he paused.
"Yes."
"Why did you need the paint bullets?"
He let out a sigh, "Let me take you to the infirmary and I will tell you."
"Earth to Joonie."
Namjoom blinked, "What-"
"You were spacing out again."
"I am sorry Tae, I was just-"
Tae nodded and took a seat at his desk, "I know... Yumei."
Namjoon nodded, "Yes. I just-"
There was a knock at their door, they turned their heads to each other, visitors?
Namjoons good up and opened the door, Hoseok was standing there. "Joonie, I came to tell you about-"
He looked past Namjoon and saw Tae, his face didn't hide his displeasure. "Forget it, I will text you later."
Hoseok left a very confused Namjoon standing at the door. 'What was that, all about?'
Tae cleared his throat, "Well, I have a solution for your Yumei problem but I will tell you after we look into the other business."
Namjoon closed the door and gave Tae his full attention.
