It's been a few hot minutes since I left The Boyz's dorm with a small group of people. I knew I couldn't risk taking everyone with me. I ultimately decided on taking Jinho, Seungkwan, Jongho, Shinwon and Juyeon with me. I figured that this way it would be easier on everyone. So now the six of us are standing in the lobby of the police station.

"Can I help you, ma'am?" a uniformed man asks us. I read his name tag: Officer Jimin. Nice.

I look Officer Jimin in the eye. "Two jerks named Morden Maleficum and Devdan Vexx kidnapped Ju Haknyeon, threatened these talented young men and are playing a sick game with me and I need help!"

Officer Jimin sips from a coffee cup in his hand. "You'd best come to a private room."

We all follow him past a few empty jail cells and then down a white hallway and into a small black box of a room with a table and a few chairs at it. I can also see a tinted glass window. I know normally there are only at most three people in one of these rooms at the time, but today, it's going to have to squeeze six of us in here.

Shinwon is looking around him, the tallest member of the group I have with me. He sticks out like a tree in a forest of bushes. Juyeon is the next tallest after him and then Jongho and Seungkwan and finally Jinho. Still, somehow, miraculously, we all manage to fit in the room with Office Jimin.

The policeman takes a seat at the table. "Normally, we only have our criminal and an officer or two in here at a time. But two of you are welcome to sit down." He gestures to the two chairs on the other side of the table.

Seungkwan and I take the chairs. Jinho and Shinwon stand behind me, while Jongho and Juyeon stand behind Seungkwan.

"So, something about a kidnapping?"

I glance at Seungkwan, who is rubbing his hands together. "Yes, um..."

Seungkwan hears my nervousness and decides to speak instead. "Jeju native Ju Haknyeon was kidnapped, sir. He's a member of the K-Pop group, The Boyz, I'm sure you know about K-Pop."

Officer Jimin nods, scribbling down notes. "When was he last seen?"

"I know the 48-hours rule, but it's only been about 24-hours. I wanted to get some more information before barging in here. I know the suspects you're looking for," I blurt out, running my fingers over my Haknyeon bracelet.

Jimin nods again. "You say he's a member of The Boyz? Aren't Idols usually heavily protected and guarded?"

"Usually." Seungkwan rolls his eyes. "Most of us never go places alone. But sometimes, we have no choice."

"I see. So when was he last seen or where was he last seen? Let's start there."

"He was at the recording studio at the IST building and supposed to head to a photoshoot with his Sangyeon-hyung," I retell. "He'd texted he was on his way, but he never showed up."

"Ah, so, I know that normally Idols have designated drivers to take them places in those specially concealed transport vehicles. I'm assuming our unsub took advantage of this knowledge and proceeded to take the driver's place."

"Oh God," Jinho murmurs, his hands shooting up to his mouth. "So he was kidnapped in the van...en route?"

"That's what I'm visualizing here from years of practice and cases I've worked on," Officer Jimin states. "Because we're dealing with an Idol, the priority shifts up. You were right to come here."

"Morden Maleficum and Devdan Vexx are your names to look into," I then say.

Officer Jimin scribbles the names down. "I'll send a few officers to patrol the area around The Boyz's dorm, as well as keep an eye on them, should these two target any other members. I will also be recruiting technical help to look into these two and also get research done about them."

"Excellent!" I say.

"On top of it, my partner, Jungkook and I will be with you. Should they contact you at all, we can assist you, as well as keep an eye on everyone. I'd also like to hear about EVERYTHING that's happened between you all and these two troublemaking scoundrels. Don't leave anything out."

I look at Seungkwan and nod at him.

Seungkwan tells Officer Jimin about how he, Jinho and Jongho were targeted and contacted by one of the men, who texted a threatening message to the three. He also says how they met up to discuss the threat and later were joined by Shinwon and myself. I coax Shinwon to talk about the attempted kidnapping he endured.

Once our story is complete and written down, we're led back out of the room and to the lobby, where we are joined by this officer's partner.
