After eating, I had my little meeting with Hobi. In my room, I packed a small bag with a few things that might be necessary. I also put away a gun, because it's always good to have one. You can never be too alert and careful. Always reminds me of my dad. He was the one who was always overprotective when it came to me. He almost protected me from the air. I loved him more than anything and miss him endlessly, but never mind. I'm going to get him anyway and find my father's killer, whatever it takes. I will avenge him with my life if necessary.

'Where are you going? ' suddenly V stepped up beside me, distracting me from my thoughts.

'I'm just a little trip with Hobi.' I said without looking up.

'A little trip? Now? ' he asked back, puzzled, and I nodded. 'Very interesting...'

'Hm? ' I snapped.

'Nothing ' he turned his head away.

'What did you want to talk to me about anyway? ' I remembered what he had whispered to me at the table. It must be important, but I still have some time to discuss it with him.

'I've found something strange thing. ' he scratched the back of his head nervously.

'A strange thing? What do you mean? ' I raised my eyebrows. I didn't know if he was looking for something or searching for something, because he didn't say a word to me.

'Ready Yana? ' my best friend looked in the door with a big smile on her face, interrupting my conversation with V. I smiled back at him involuntarily.

'Yes! Let's go! ' I stood up and shouldered my bag and started to leave, but I looked back at V from the doorway, who continued to stand with his head down. I was a little afraid that he might want to talk to me about something big, but I was more concerned about myself. I needed to get out of here and clear my head. 'We'll talk when I get back, take care of yourself. ' I sent him a nice smile and left.

'Ready? ' Hobi poked me in the side, drawing my full attention.

'I've been ready my whole life. No kidding! ' I slapped him on the shoulder.

'Ouch! ' he patted me on the shoulder with a look of mock pain on his face.

'It didn't hurt! What are you talking about! You'd die of a mosquito bite! ' I laughed good-humouredly. God, I've missed this!

'You're right, I really don't... But, I wouldn't compare that punch to a mosquito bite.' he snapped his finger at me.

'Hey! ' I slapped his hand gruffly, and now he laughed. 'Then... What would you compare it to? '

'A gorilla in good shape.' he said and started to run.

'Now you're going to die Jung Hoseok! ' I shouted after him and then I ran after him.

*Eye angle of V*

When Yana left the room, I immediately ran to Agust D. I couldn't let things go. Without thinking, I knocked on his office door and opened it. D was sitting behind his desk. He was smoking and sorting papers. On my arrival, he looked up from his papers and blew a good smoke into the air.

'What brings you here Tae? ' he asked me from head to toe.

Gasping, I clutched my chest and tried to catch my breath. Shit! Running is so not for me!

'Jade, give him a glass of water! ' he pointed to one of his bodyguards, who nodded and did as instructed. I took a big gulp of water, which made me feel much better. 'So I hear...'

'Trouble! ' I snapped, at that moment. 'VERY-VERY BAD TROUBLE! ' I was rambling.

He raised his eyebrows curiously. He leaned on his desk and lit another cigarette.

'Could you explain what you mean? ' 

'You see, sir, the other day Yana was sent an intelligent virus that started eating her organs from the inside.' I began to explain. He nodded for me to continue. I licked my lips and hesitantly took a hypodermic needle from my pocket. Stepping closer, I placed it on his desk.

'What is this Tae? ' he took the needle and began to examine it.

'Hypodermic needle.' I replied simply.

'I know that you idiot! ' he shouted at me. Scared, I took a step back. Okay, okay... I'm not allowed to play with the lion. 'But why did you bring this here? '

I hesitated again. I bit my lower lip. Am I sure I should tell him? Yes, I'm absolutely sure I should tell him, it's Yana!

'Tae, tell me for God's sake! ' he shouted impatiently. Ah, as if it were that easy! 

'This is the hypodermic needle that was stuck in Yana.' I said without looking at him. I had to turn my head away. I hated this thing. I hated that Yana was being hurt and I couldn't even protect her. All I had to do was fix what had happened. At least I could help her so far...

'Yeah? ' he put the needle down on the table and blew out a big puff of smoke 'What's wrong with that? We already knew that.'

'I examined it more closely and...' I took a deep breath and then rammed it into my hair. I was terribly frustrated. 'There's most likely a traitor among us.' I told the truth. A stone almost fell from my heart when I said it.

'HOW WHAT?! ' he looked at me with piercing eyes. 'What are you babbling to me about...?! '

'There was a fingerprint on that hypodermic needle...' I continued my explanation, not caring now about the lion's venom.

'Whose is it? ' he stood up with a flourish and, taking his gun from his desk, put it in his holster. I still don't know where to put the boss's attitude when it comes to Yana. 'Tell me who did it and I'll kill him! ' he stubbed his cigarette butt in the ash and leaned on his hand, glaring at me. Now this is gonna be fun...

'Based on the examinations and the tests...' I swallowed hard and then lowered my head. I started playing with my fingers. If I say this, it's all over and maybe, on top of that, I'll unleash something that could be fatal. For us and for others. I slowly sucked in the air and then blew it out. 'I've checked and rechecked several times to be absolutely sure of everything and....' I started again, but Agust D cut in.

'TAKE YOUR FUCKING NAME OFF, V! ' he slammed the table nervously. I took another step back, but there was no escape. Checkmate.

'J-Hope ' I dropped the culprit's name, starting an avalanche that would flow unstoppably. And what will it take? Only blood. Especially if it was Agust D.
