"ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!"

Jungkook whisper-shouted as he watch the short haired Lisa coming down the window and handing over injectable painkillers.

"These are narcotics!" Jungkook complained.

Lisa rolled her eyes, "Just shut up before the security hears us."

Jungkook held her waist, helping her down the window. Lisa let out small gasps from the unbearable pain, causing her to stumble and land on Jungkook's arm.

"This looks like we're cutting classes." Jungkook muttered.

"Yeah. The legit reason why none us graduated." She snatched one of the syringe painkiller from Jungkook's pocket and injected it on herself.

She groaned, "Oh fuck... That brought back bad memories." Referring to her past self as a test subject for drugs.

"Don't push yourself too much. If you die, I'm going to kill myself." Jungkook said.

Lisa eyed Jungkook, "Wow, am I your heart or something? You're pressuring me."

He scoffed, "It's not like I have any reason to live. We've talked about this already."

"Yeah, whatever you say." Lisa nodded.

Both their eyes widened when they saw a flashlight pointing at them.

"Who's there?!" The security guard shouted from a distance.

"Oh, shit. We gotta go." Lisa cussed.

Jungkook lifted Lisa up, piggy back ride. Lisa squealed at the sudden action while Jungkook bit his lips at the realization.

"You—"

"JUST GO! WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THIS!" Lisa cuts him off.

Jungkook instantly ran towards the parking lot, placing Lisa on the back of his motorcycle.

"Hold on, tight." And drove off.

The security guard was still running towards them from a distance but never caught up with Jungkook's speed.

Lisa looked back, watching the hospital getting farther and farther.

She sighed in relief, "That was close."

A slight moment of silence before Jungkook responded, "S-Sorry about earlier."

Lisa's eyes slightly widened. Her grip on Jungkook's waist tightened as she lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Why am I even embarrassed? I'm supposed to be used to it."

"I didn't know you wore nothing but underwear underneath that hospital gown." Jungkook defended.

Lisa shut her eyes close, trying to forget how Jungkook's hands cupped her ass as he carried her, piggy back ride.

As for Jungkook, his whole body's about to explode from embarrassment upon remembering the sensation of Lisa's front chest rubbing against his back and the bare skin rubbing on his palms.

"I'm still a man."

Lisa cleared her throat, "Anyway, let's head to the Mayor's office."

"Got it." Jungkook shortly responded.

The ride felt so long but they arrived at the Mayor's office safely. They were immediately welcomed by household workers as soon as they saw the familiarity on Lisa's face.

"Ah! My child!" The Mayor wearing a velvet robe engulfed the doll in a tight hug.

"What has gotten into you? Your house blew up and now you're here? You're suppose to be in the hospital!" The Mayor pulled away from the hug.

His gaze turned to Jungkook as silence was Lisa's response.

The Mayor eyed Jungkook from head to toe, "And who might this sharp looking man be? I heard you had new people around, Lisa."

"His name is Jungkook. He's my siste—"

"Lisa's friend, Mayor." He cuts her off, making the shorthaired beauty glance at him.

"Friend. Right... Well, anyway! What made you rush over here?" The Mayor finally asked.

Lisa faced him, "I'm short of ammo right now, Mayor. I was hoping if you can help me on that."

Jungkook's eyes widened, "Ammo? He's a Mayor. You really think a law-abiding politician will help you with this shitty illegal job of yours?!", he thought.

The Mayor squinted his eyes for a moment, deciding on what to respond. This made Jungkook anxious and shut his eyes close.

The Mayor sighed, "Even if I say no, you're gonna steal the ammo from me anyway. Silly girl." And patted Lisa's head.

"My family is upstairs. Let's not wake them up. Follow me." The Mayor said, making Jungkook's eyes widen.

Lisa smirked and winked at Jungkook, mouthing "I got this."

Jungkook shook his head and whispered, "You're so reckless."

"Wow. Those words really came from you, huh? Lisa's Friend, Jeon Jungkook." She sarcastically said.

Jungkook rolled his eyes, "I'm trying to avoid being identified as your sister's ex lover."

"Then you prefer being identified as Lisa's friend? Are you gonna use our friendship to get benefits from the Mayor?" Lisa teasingly furrowed her brows at him.

"You crazy woman. You can have your own benefits, i don't want it... I'm just... trying to accept things." Jungkook muttered.

Lisa became quiet and watched Jungkook's face looking all dejected.

Without noticing, they already arrived at the wide and big warehouse just across the back of manor, surrounded by the field.

"Here we are. You can open the door to the left. The right door is for car keys and bikes. Take whatever you want. Just make sure to not stay too long. My field is wide but no guarantee that it's secured." The Mayor said.

Lisa nodded, "Thank you, Mayor. I promise to return it all and pay you back."

"No need, my child. The only return I want is you being alive." The Mayor held both her shoulders and gave her the warm smile like how fathers do when their daughters make them proud.

Lisa smiled back at him, "I understand, Mayor."

The Mayor nodded in satisfaction. He eyes Jungkook who looks so uninterested with the things happening around him.

"Boy." He called Jungkook.

Jungkook raised an eyebrow, giving him the clueless expression.

"Lisa is the daughter of the people of Jeju. If she doesn't return safe and sound..."

The Mayor leaned closer to Jungkook's right ear, "I'll blow your head off with a magnum revolver."

Jungkook stood still, not flinching upon hearing his words. The Mayor saw the stern confidence on Jungkook's face and decided to leave the two alone.

"What did he say?" Lisa curiously asked.

Jungkook scoffed, "He told me to scold you the next time you run away with a severe wound."

The beauty rolled her eyes and continued rummaging through the ammo. She opened a drawer and saw the map of Jeju.

"Jungkook, look. This is where One is." Lisa placed the map on the table, pointing at an island.

"Their border is about 6 hectares. I've been there before and if i remember correctly, it's the place where mass production of drugs and research are being held." She said, making Jungkook's eyes widen.

Jungkook bit his lips, "If that's the case, the security is tight."

"No. That was 13 years ago. I'm not sure if the factory and the lab is still working. The last time I was there, One's father were planning to relocate the drugs and test subjects. I'm not too sure if the security is as tight as before." Lisa responded.

He sighed, "Without Chanwoo and Suga hyungs surveillance hacking, we can't figure the exact data. This is why I told you it's impossible to do this with just the two of us."

"It's not impossible, Jeon Jungkook. Look around, we have the ammo and skills. We can pull this off without risking anyone." She explained.

"What? The past month you were this rational thinker who caused an argument on my plans. Now, you're being sentimental in doing your job?" Jungkook furrowed his eyes at her.

Lisa shook her head, "It's not a job. I'm not doing my job right now. What I'm doing is what i actually want to do. Not merely a responsibility or a feeling of guilt. After seeing what happened to Chloe, I found myself wanting to protect that family."

"But if you die, all of us wi—"

Lisa cupped Jungkook's face. Pulling him closer to her level and meeting his eyes.

"If I die, either Chloe, Rose's daughter or Jisoo's son or anyone in your family will have to suffer my failure to One." Lisa said. Jungkook's eyes still fixed on hers.

"I won't die. Not until all of Jung Jaewon's properties are completely destroyed. I must not die. You too, Jeon Jungkook. You owe me your life. I decide whether you throw that life away or not... If you don't like that. You can pay me back by accompanying me to infiltrate the island. After that, you can live however you want. I can also live however I want."

"After we kill One, let's both set ourselves free."
