Yoongi's POV-

"Proof that it was premeditated. Proof that she ordered it to be done. The proof that she tried to kill you."

Chanyeol and I immediately stand on our feet when we hear this. Completely shocked but ready to run out the door right now to the police station.

Our excitement begins to subside as we are looking around the room at everyone sat still, understandably shocked, but no one is moving.

Why is no one moving?

We have what we need. This is what this has all been about. Why is no one reacting at all?

"Where is it? What is it, a flash drive? A hard drive? Laptop? What do you have that we can take to the police?" Chanyeol fires out his questions as he looks between the phone, myself, Taehyung and Mrs Jeon.

"Well," Mrs Jeon says slowly. "This is where it gets complicated."

Really? This is where it gets complicated?

Jesus fucking Christ.

"We can't just simply walk this into a police station. So, we have overcome a large obstacle by getting solid evidence but now we have to make sure it gets into the right hands." She says hesitantly. "Otherwise it will just be buried and written off like how it has happened in the past when people have tried to go against her."

"What do you mean we can't take it to the police?" Jin speaks up from he and Namjoon's corner of the couch.

Taehyung shakes his head. "Irene owns half of Seoul, and that is not even as much of an exaggeration as you'd think." He says to Jin before turning to Mrs Jeon.

He takes a very deep breath as he looks at her with determined eyes.

"Mrs Jeon, what about him?"

She is quiet as she opens and closes her mouth a few times while her eyes flash between Kook, the phone and Taehyung.

"I-I don't think that-"

"I know that it's going to be hard but I don't know if we have another option." Taehyung says calmly.

A sob breaks from her as she begins to cry. "I just got him back..."

Kook wraps his mother in a hug and Taehyung goes over to comfort her as well as Hyuk starts speaking over the line. "I'm going to have to leave anyway. I'm sure she has already sent people after me. You need to talk to him. Tell him everything. Tell him you found me."

I look at Chanyeol and he looks to be just as confused as I am.

The only people that know what is going on are Mrs Jeon, Hyuk and Taehyung.

"What are you talking about? Who is this man?"

"Her-" Taehyung begins but Mrs Jeon cuts him off.

"I'll talk to him. Just... let me talk to him"

Hyuk clears his throat, "I am going to have to go. I'm not safe where I am now so I will probably my be traveling for the next few days. I don't know when I'll be able to talk to you all like this again, but I want you all to know how sorry I am that I wasn't able to stop Irene from what she did.

"I'm sorry that I was too late, but I am going to do everything in my power to make sure she gets what she deserves. I owe it to my friend to get justice for his son. I'm going to have to get rid of this phone I'm calling you from but I will keep Taehee and Taehyung's numbers. I will be in touch as soon as I can."

After each of us exchanged thank yous and a few more questions were answered Mrs Jeon got back on the phone with Hyuk and went out into the hallway.

That was almost fifteen minutes ago. As we've been waiting for Mrs Jeon's return with some sort of direction and/or more clarification on what the next steps are Kook has been sat on the floor, his head rested against my leg where I am sat on the couch while I run my fingers through his hair.

The room is silent besides barely audible whispers between Hobi, Chanyeol and Jimin as well as Namjoon and Jimin while Taehyung is standing silently by the door not so subtly eavesdropping on Mrs Jeon.

After a few more minutes I lower myself onto the floor to sit next to Kook and pull him close beside me.

As I bring my arm around his waist I feel him stiffen at my touch and hear a sharp intake of air being sucked between his teeth.

"Ah, so he was kind enough to not punch you in the face but instead went after your rib cage. Shall I go get some ice?" I ask as I lean my head a little to see under the fringe that's covering his eyes.

"That would probably be a good idea. Thank you." He says in an unemotional tone.

He moves off of me and I stand up to head to the door when Mrs Jeon rushes back into the room.

"Bunny, I have to go." She says as she kneels down to be on his level.

She takes his face in her hands and wipes some of the hair out of his face.

"I am going to get some help and we are going to get the evidence Hyuk has and take it to a very powerful man that is going to know what to do. Who we can trust. But I have to go now. He doesn't have anywhere to go and she is after him."

We are all stunned at her words.

Someone we can trust? Who is she taking this to?

I feel someone come and stand beside me and turn to see that it is Taehyung.

"Who is the man she's talking about?"

He glances at me through the corner of his eyes before returning them to Mrs Jeon and Kook.

"Her father."

Her father? Her father-

"The General..." I say as realization hits me.

I then turn to Taehyung fully and take his arm and pull him away from everyone.

"Her father? He doesn't know about Hyuk?"

He shakes his head. "Not yet."

"Do you know what her plan is?"

He sighs. "Yes. It's not ideal but I think I got the gist of what she was just speaking with Hyuk about. It's still too risky for the two of them to be physically seen in the same place. She is going to leave from here and go to her father. She needs to explain to him what is happening and hopefully he can hurry and get some kind of protection put in place for Hyuk."

"So he is who she was talking about. She just got him back..."

He nods. "Yes. She is terrified to be alone again and doesn't want to have to be. She wants to explore every option before they have to uproot their lives and start over."

"Start over?" I asked, feeling confused.

What does he mean? Start over how because if it is as nonchalant as he just made it sound we should have explored these options sooner.

"Starting over as in new identities. New people, new city, new life. This is bigger than just Irene finding out Hyuk is helping Mrs Jeon. Irene just forced him out of hiding. And if she hires the wrong person to go after him that can get the information on who he is to that terrorist leader that killed Mr Jeon then there's no telling-"

"Wait a second." I have to physically shake my head at what he just said, trying to clear it somehow to make sure what I think he said is what he actually said.

"The terrorist leader that killed Mr Jeon?"

"Yes. The three of them had to get new identities in the first place because that man was looking to hunt them down and get revenge. They have been in hiding. Mrs Jeon, Mr Jeon until he was killed, Hyuk and Koo, without his knowledge.

"That man is still looking for them. That is why it was so important for Irene to stop looking into Koo's background in the first place. Remember? Mrs Jeon talked about this that night at my apartment."

"Yes but she made it sound like it wasn't a big deal! She down fucking plays everything just like to do. He found Kook's father and killed him?! Does Kook know that?" I whisper yell to him, finding it extremely hard not to just let it all out at a volume to match my mounting uneasy nerves.

He shakes his head and turns us so our backs are to our friends still scattered around the room.

"... So Irene looking into Kook brought Hyuk and Mrs Jeon out of hiding. They have both been exposed so now we have to worry about not only Irene but that fucking terrorist guy too?"

"Yes."

As I am seething with anger and anxiety Mrs Jeon's words echo in my ears.

This is where it gets complicated.
