White.
It was all white.

The walls, the floor, everything.

Even the clothing the girl had been changed into was white, her pale skin and raven-black hair the only colour contrasted in this blinding room.

When she awoke, her heart pounded. She couldn't make out anything in this room. It was all the same, the same bright colour at all sides, all corners.

There wasn't any windows, nor a visible door handle.
As her eyes adjusted, she began to notice a few pieces of furniture scattered in the room.

On the far left side there was a pure-white bed, all made and ready for someone to rest in.
In the middle of the room there lay a table and two chairs, clearly an interrogation table.

"So they expect to keep me here awhile.. well shit.." Kara mumbled, looking up to the roof.
A red light blinked down on her.

Of course there were cameras.
There was one door visible off to the side, only just. The girl crawled slowly over towards it, pushing it open.
A toilet sat inside.

"At least they gave me a bathroom.. that's nice I suppose.." she said, heading back out to the bed.
She pushed herself up against it, wincing at the pain through her shoulder, before standing and walking around the room.
She couldn't spot the other door.
She tugged at her wrists, pain searing through them.
"Of course, it's roped.. I'm surprised they took the ankle bracelets off.." She whispered, pulling her legs over her arms, placing her wrists under her foot and tugging.

An electric current coursed through her body, making her gasp, falling to the floor, breathing heavily.

"What the fuck.." she gasped, rubbing her neck, only to find a thick choker tied around it.
Kara's eyes widened in stress, tugging at the brim of the necklace.

"That won't work." Someone said.
Kara looked up, spotting the leader of Enhypen sitting on the chair.
"Jungwon.. hi.." She said, leaning her back on the bed, her roped wrists in her lap.
"What's the choker for? You're going to zap me every time I misbehave?" Kara said, her breathing still ragged.
"That's for the others to decide. I was against it, really. But they all believed you'd escape. It's not like they were wrong." Jungwon said.
"What's this room for? I'd be better off in a basement. Or dead in a ditch. I hate the colour white." Kara said, looking at Jungwons black attire, and his faded-brown streaks in his dark hair.
"I'm actually not sure. You can ask Namjoon when he comes back. Question for you though.. do you have any idea why they want you? I've been given no information, just to 'take the girls in black, the ones that work with Stray Kids.' So we did.. but I don't know why." Jungwon asked, leaning forward.

"No clue, can't help you there. Something about a secret or some shit. They seem to want me and Gabs because we're handy, I suppose, so they keep pulling these stupid tricks to take us from our group." Kara answered.
"Wait.. is Gabs..?" She started, panic filling her whole.

"The other girl? Yeah, she's here. TXT brought her themselves. We didn't want to bring you in the same van, it was the bosses order. So if your friends came after one van, they couldn't take the other." Jungwon said briefly.
The girl began to panic, her heart racing. "Where is she. Is she nearby. Did you hurt her?" Kara asked, her voice wavering, lowering into a growl.
"She's perfectly safe, don't worry. Jake's with her in the next room." Jungwon said slowly.

Kara's heart slowed ever so slightly. "Right.. of course.." She sighed, looking at the floor.
"The other groups will be awhile, the gala goes all night. We can do something if you want. It has to be in here though. Do you want to play UNO or something?" Jungwon asked.

"Sure, yeah okay.." Kara responded, looking down at her wrists, which were bruised and bleeding.
"Can you loosen these, you made them too tight."

"Sorry, I can't.." Jungwon said, frowning. "I'll be right back.. wait here." He said, walking off.
She heard a door close, but when she looked up, she couldn't see its outline.

Kara stared up at the white ceiling, face void of emotion.
"They're rookies, that's why they suck at lying.. She isn't here." She reassured herself.

The Seoul Mafia Gala, 11:45pm
"What do you mean the trackers gone??" Gabs asked.
"I mean, the trackers been destroyed! I can't locate it!!" Hyunjin said, tapping away on his phone.

"Don't you have a second one set up? Like in her hair or an earring or something?" Bang Chan asked, pacing back and forth, before taking a huge sip of his beer.

"No, I don't. Unless Kara set one up, I don't. We've got no leads. Nothing. Unless.. no.." Hyunjin started.

"What? Come on, spit it out." Taeyong asked.

"We could always send Y/N to BTS' house,, for a 'school project'. We have the tracker on the necklace. Then we can grab Kara and Y/N, and leave.. but the problem with that, is, well, they'll kidnap her. It'll be hard to get Y/N back without her realising who we really are." Hyunjin explained, his voice faltering.

"That could work... I could go with them.. she trusts me.." Gabs said.

"They'll take you too, Gabs. It's too risky. I'm sure Kara will be fine for a short while, she's strong." Jisung said.

"She only just woke up from that stupid coma, I don't need her stressing herself out." Gabs snapped.

"Gabs, she'll be fine. She's with the rookies right now. I doubt they'll do anything, you saw how they acted." Bang Chan said, placing a hand on Gabs' shoulder.

"What about when the others go back? Then what? She'll be hurt. She's already injured." Gabs said, pushing Bang Chan's hand away.

"They won't hurt her, they need her. Please calm down." Jisung said.
"Han, you want me to calm down? CALM DOWN? HOW CAN I CALM DOWN WHEN MY BEST FRIENDS BEEN KIDNAPPED!" Gabs yelled.

Heads turned, looking towards them.
"Gabs, be quiet, you're causing a scene." Johnny said.

"No, I won't be quiet, until you fucking do something." Gabs growled.

Taeyong looked to Bang Chan, with a small eyebrow raise.
Bang Chan just nodded.

"Gabs.." Taeyong started, walking up to the girl. He pulled her into a hug.
"Please calm down.." He whispered, pulling a small syringe from his pocket.
"I can't just calm down.." Gabs said, her body trembling.
"I know.." Taeyong whispered, stabbing the syringe into Gabs' neck.
He injected the clear liquid, pulling the needle back out.
"Taeyong.." Gabs growled, holding her neck as her eyelids fluttered.
Jisung opened his arms, as the girl fell unconscious, stumbling into his embrace.

"Was that really necessary?" Jisung asked.
"She wasn't going to stop yelling.. thanks, Taeyong." Bang Chan said.

"No problem.. now, I'd say you check Kara's room. She's a smart girl, she's probably got a second tracker, and left a note to it in her room. She wouldn't want to tell you though, incase people were listening you know?" Taeyong suggested.

"Yeah, that sounds like something she would do. We'll call you if we have any leads, okay?" Minho said.

"Alright. Good luck." Taeyong said, wandering off.

"We might as well go home.. Gabs is knocked out anyway." Felix said.

"Yeah, let's go." Jisung said, carrying Gabs bridal style out to the car.

They drove home in silence, the atmosphere dull.

"Jisung, take Gabs to bed. The rest of you can hang around. Me, Felix and Hyunjin will check Kara's room." Bang Chan instructed, walking off to the girls room.

The other members hung around the living room in a heavy silence, no one daring to talk.

"Hyung.. what if there's nothing?" Felix asked, as he turned the light on in Kara's room.

"I'm sure there's something.." Bang Chan said, walking to Kara's bedside drawer.
Hyunjin looked around the room, at the photo-covered walls, and the large black-framed bed in the corner of the room.
"These are all photos of us.. wow, you'd think she's a teenager with a crush on the popular boys, if you didn't know her." Hyunjin said, admiring a photo of him and her, laying on the beach.

"I wish that's all she was.. I still feel bad, y'know. They could've been just normal girls, but we took them in, and made them into fighting machines." Bang Chan said, looking through the second drawer.

"They already were killing machines. Kara, especially. Something had happened to her, that changed her.. who knows how amazing she could've been before." Felix said, looking through boxes in the wardrobe.

"We all know what happened to her, Felix. The world is unfair. But we can't do anything about it. But you know, with time, I'm sure she'll recover. Maybe her cracked heart can be pieced together again." Hyunjin said.

"Maybe.. guys, I found something." Bang Chan said, pulling out a wooden journal.
At the back of the book, there was a few digits carved into the back.
"One-two-seven.. thats NCT's subunit.. is it a password for a file or something?? Wheres her laptop?" Felix asked.

Bang Chan opened Kara's laptop on her desk, opening it to the login screen.
"What's her password.." Bang Chan asked.
"It's just the digits from the day she met us. 250318." Felix said, typing it in quickly.
"That's sweet." Hyunjin said.

Files lay open on her laptop. Bang Chan skimmed through them, until he found a file labelled "127".
"Maybe this is it??" Bang Chan said, clicking open the file.
It pulled up a document, a diagram and a letter attached.

"If you've opened this, you either a) have just broke into my laptop for the fun of it, or b) somethings happened to me, and you can't get in contact with me right now. Let's assume it's the latter of events. I should've known the whole "tracker in the clothes" trick wouldn't work for ever. So, I prepared in advance!! Y'know those earrings I always wear? The little black moons? Yeah you know what I'm talking about! I got Jackson to help me place a tiny, and I mean tiny, tracker inside. In this document is the referral code to gain access to its location. Ask Hyunjin to track me down. Don't worry, wherever I am, I'll be okay. Trust me on that." Bang Chan read out.

Hyunjin pulled out his phone. "Okay, so the referral code is 5-5-6-8-2.. I'VE GOT IT.. oh wow, it's super high tech.. it shows all the security measures they have.. and there's a lot.. although.. it's weird, it stops outside the building.. they must've been taken off.. at least it's a start." He said.

"We move at dawn." Bang Chan said, closing Kara's laptop.
"Yeah, let's get ready for battle."

Y/N's POV, Y/N and Ji Woo's apartment
I scrolled through Huening Kai's following. He was following all of Jungkook's friends. So they knew him well.

As I scrolled, I started to pass by unfamiliar names.
Yeonjun..? As well as a man named Soobin...
I decided to look through Huening Kai's posts instead, as he was following a lot of people.

There was a post of him and four other people.
Yeonjun, and Soobin.

As well as them..
"Oh my god.. fuck!" I yelled.

Taehyun and Beomgyu.

Jungkook has a connection to Kara.

With a pounding heart, I called Jungkook.
I need answers.
