"I want rooms five, seven, nine, and eleven set up to these specifications." Hongjoong said to the officers in front of him. They were some of the few that supported this idea, so he knew he could count on them so do things right.

They nodded and hurried out of his office.

Yunho walked in at the same moment, blowing the steam away from his cup. "Hey Joong. Getting everything ready?" He asked, lifting an eyebrow as the other officers walked by.

"Yeah. I want to run a few training courses to see what their strengths and weaknesses are. I know we know a few of them already, but if we are going to do this we need to know their weaknesses more than anything. That way we can keep them out of situations that could put them in danger."

The taller hummed and came to stand next to him. "Well I can already guess and say that Yeosang isn't a fighter."

Hongjoong chuckled. "I agree. But he should be taught how to defend himself. You and I will go through some training too. So we can brush up on our skills."

"Yeah that's probably a good idea. We can't be making a fool of ourselves in front of a bunch of criminals." Yunho said with a smile, although Hongjoong heard a sarcastic note to his voice.

The older just rolled his eyes slightly and looked down at the six files in front of him. His small, meticulous notes covered every inch of their prison bio. He had been jotting down thoughts and observations since he first interviewed them. "So if you were to build the team right now, what would you do? What is your instinct?"

Yunho picked at his lip and sat on the other side of the desk, swirling his coffee in circles. "It's kind of hard to say right now, but from what I know about them... Honestly, like I said, Yeosang isn't a fighter. So I'd set him up in a safe room somewhere so he could be our 'eye in the sky' so to speak. I'd probably leave... Jongho behind to protect him. He seems observant and like he would make a good wall if needed. I'm assuming he's a good fighter too if he was able to start that fighting ring."

Hongjoong nodded along with him. That had been his first instinct with those two as well. This is why he and Yunho made such a good team. They had a lot of the same thoughts, but Yunho was able to tame some of his impulsive nature while he helped get Yunho out of his comfort zone.

"Seonghwa would probably switch between two positions. If he is as talented with guns as we think he is, then he could be useful both up front while in the buildings as well as providing cover from a sniper position. Mingi and Wooyoung would be our front line. Both seem like they are stealthy enough, and Wooyoung would be good at the sneak attacks while Mingi could get us into places. And San..." Yunho paused. "I have no idea with him. I suppose that we will find out as we go through training."

"Perfect. I think that sounds like a good set up too. And that's what I was going to gear the training toward as well. But like I said, I want to try and fine-tune their abilities too so they aren't left undefended."

Yunho hummed in agreement as he gulped down the rest of his coffee. If he didn't seem to need it to function Hongjoong would have gotten rid of the coffee machine a long time ago. But a coffee deprived Yunho was not a good person to be around...

Hongjoong shuddered at the thought and pinched the bridge of his nose. This had to work. He didn't know what he would do if it didn't.

It didn't take long for the training rooms to get set up. While they were, the pair decided to have them go through the training course in pairs, so that way they could start to learn to work as a team, but they didn't have to manage all six prisoners at once.

It was time to get things started.

Yeosang looked around the big room nervously. The walls were all white and there was a large mirror behind him. He knew it wasn't really a mirror, but there was no sense in bringing it up. Cops really weren't as smart as they liked to pretend to be.

He looked down at his twitching hands and sighed. He called it his 'hacker's twitch'. His hands were so used to typing at a keyboard that when they became idle they grew restless.

But this isn't exactly what he wanted to do to help his hands out.

Yeosang had been brought in front of a table full of weapons. There was everything from a small knife to a large shotgun. He thought he even recognized a machine gun, but honestly he couldn't care less.

Guns had never been his thing.

And he knew he was the only one that had been selected who had never killed anyone.

It was kind of intimidating if he was being honest with himself.

The door to the room opened and Seonghwa was brought it.

Yeosang felt the color drain from his face at the idea of being compared at a weapons test to... To... To this mass murder.

The older's lip curled a little as he looked down at Yeosang. Both were forced to stand next to each other, still bound in chains, as Hongjoong and Yunho walked up to them slowly.

"Alright," The chief said, studying both of them. "Today you will start wearing your bracelets. Once I have them on then you will be released from the chains from here on out. As long as you follow the rules, you won't be harmed."

Yeosang nodded quickly and held up his joined arms as Yunho approached him. The officer held up a key to unlock his right wrist. Then he slowly slipped the thin silver bracelet on, pulled up the keypad in one smooth wave of his hand, and entered in a code. The bracelet shrunk and immediately formed to Yeosang's wrist.

"The unlock code is different than the access code, so even though you just saw that, don't think you can get this off." Yunho said with a sly smile as he unlocked the rest of the chains.

Yeosang sighed as they dropped to the floor and he rolled his shoulders. "Thanks."

Yunho arched an eyebrow as he moved over and did the same thing for Seonghwa.

The officer seemed like a decent person, although Yeosang could tell he was guarded. He definitely had a past that he kept hidden. Hongjoong must know about it because he was watching Yunho like a hawk right now, as if the taller was going to suddenly freak out or break.

"Ok." Yunho said after picking up both sets of chains and putting them in a box. "Show us what you can do."

"What?" Yeosang asked, his eyes widening in fear.

"We just want to see an example of your skill set. Try out a few different weapons and show us what you can do." Hongjoong said from where he was leaning against the wall. He ran one hand over his scarred eyebrow and propped one foot against the wall.

Next to him, Seonghwa shrugged and walked up to one of the hand guns. He spun it around his finger then quickly fired off six rounds.

Yeosang flinched at each one, then felt his jaw drop a little when all six shots overlapped each other at the center of the target. "Wow." He whispered before looking at the guns. His heart started to pound at the thought of actually firing one.

A gentle hand touched his shoulder and he looked up to see Seonghwa looking down at him with his stone gray eyes.

.

It was obvious that the small hacker had never fired a gun before. And really it didn't surprise Seonghwa. His hands were too perfect. He would be covered with scars and burns if he actually handled weapons.

He didn't know why, but he found himself placing a hand on Yeosang's shoulder. "Here. Start with this one."

Seonghwa picked up a small pistol and handed it to the boy.

What a pain. But this is probably why the chief paired them together. His strength was Yeosang's weakness.

But if he was going to earn his freedom, Seonghwa knew he needed to be a team player. Plus the faster they others learned, the faster they could potentially get this done.

He saw Hongjoong shift out of the corner of his eye, but ignored it to continue showing Yeosang how to hold the gun.

After demonstrating each step, Seonghwa would then lean forward and inspect Yeosang's hands to make sure they were in the proper place. He also worked on Yeosang's stance.

"Ok, now put it all together and gently pull the trigger." He coached, taking a step back to observe.

He watched as Yeosang exhaled and tried to steady his shaking hands. Then he started to put pressure on the trigger, but it ended up being a little too much.

The gun with off and the rebound made Yeosang's hands fly up so the bullet embedded itself into the wall instead of the target. Yeosang yelped and scrunched his eyes shut while backing away.

Seonghwa ran forward immediately and took the gun from him. "Ok. This is definitely not for you. Never close your eyes while holding a gun. Especially with how jumpy you are right now." He scolded.

Yeosang flinched away from him and quickly backed away. "S-Sorry. I didn't mean to."

Yunho rushed to his side and placed a large hand on his shoulder. "Deep breath."

Hongjoong was there too, standing off to the side and watching every move they made. "Can you try again?"

Yeosang looked at his with wide eyes.

"You're kidding, right?" Seonghwa said, crossing his arms.

"No. I'm not." Hongjoong said before locking eyes with Yeosang. For how small the chief was, he sure knew how to be intimidating. "You need to learn how to defend yourself. I know your skill is hacking, and we fully intend on using it. But if your location is discovered you need to be able to defend yourself."

He had a point. If they were really going to be doing dangerous things like taking on gangs and his father's mafia, then it was almost guaranteed that Yeosang would be discovered at some point. It didn't matter how good he was.

"You're only one person." Seonghwa said, speaking his thoughts. "If we go up against bigger groups they could have a group of hackers trying to fight against you. Hongjoong is right. Come on. Let's try again."

Yeosang nodded slowly and held out his hand.

The kid had guts. That earned him a few points in Seonghwa's book.

They spent a few hours in the room teaching the hacker how to use a few different guns. He got to the point where he was comfortable with firing it and didn't flinch as much when the shot happened. He still couldn't aim, but he was at least hitting the target. It would be enough to slow an attacker down at least.

Hongjoong also pulled Seonghwa aside to see how he was at handling knives, swords, and other close up combat weapons.

It had never been his strong suit, but Seonghwa's father had made sure he was trained and proficient in all forms of weapons.

That seemed to please the chief. He made several small comments about how impressed he was.

"Are you going to want me to train the others?" Seonghwa asked, twirling a pistol around his pointer finger.

Hongjoong rubbed his eyebrow nervously before he spoke. "Possibly, if that's ok with you. We'll see though. I think our plan is to do other testing like this with the other four, and then we will do some group activities. I have no intention of sending you in unprepared."

Seonghwa nodded slowly. He could see why the shorter was made chief. He had good leadership instincts and Seonghwa could tell he was passionate about this mission.

Maybe this really would be the way his father would finally be taken down.

Seonghwa couldn't decide if he was ok with that or not...
