Hyoyeon tapped her foot to the ground in Seunghyun's office, waiting for him to return. It was already an hour since Hyoyoen handed over the files she

got from Sunny to Seunghyun. Now, Seunghyun was negotiating with the higher brass.

Hyoyeon sighed and sighed until Seunghyun finally entered his office.

"You're still here?" he said.

"Of course. So?"

"No good."

"What do you mean 'no good'?"

"Princess will be relieved from her duties," Seunghyun said, he put a hearing report on his desk, "other than that, I can't do anything about the facility."

"Great," Hyoyeon let out a relieved breath, "what do you mean you can't do anything about the facility?" asked Hyoyeon.

Seunghyun sat down on his chair and poured water on a glass, "they're gonna rebuild it."

"The higher brass didn't listen to you?"

"No. I told them about the Blood Facility, hell, I went out on a limb to print out the classified files and shoved it under their noses."

"They didn't care?"

"They knew. They knew everything about the facility, they authorized it. They were conducting experiments to make a cure, a serum to turn a Gifted

into a normal person. Side effects, however, result in deaths? sometime."

Hyoyeon raised her tone, "sometimes? Oppa, didn't you read the list? There is not a single name in that list that's still breathing and walking here in

Korea!"

"That's the best I can do, Hyo. I have to approve all these, otherwise you and Sunny and not to mention Sooyoung will be out of here, from the

organization. I don't want that," Seunghyun took a sip on his drink.

"Oppa!" Hyoyeon smacked Seunghyun's desk, "we are doing a very terrible thing."

"Hyo," Seunghyun looked inside her eyes.

"We're killing innocent people!"

"But we have to, they are dangerous to humanity!"

"Even little girls!?"

"You're questioning about this now!? You never once hesitated when it comes to Yuri and Taeyeon, all you talk about is killing them! Since when you

become such a sentimental person?"

"This is different!" Hyoyeon roared.

"Different how!?"

"I thought we were doing the right thing? I thought we're healing the Gifted, I never thought--."

"Hyo," Seunghyun lowered his voice, "I got to say that I agree with them."

"Agree?"

"This research is necessary. We need to find the cure."

"But it killed them! Forget the 96%, how about the 4% that survived? They put them to sleep! Even the term they use sounds like they're researching on

dogs!"

"Imagine how these Gifteds will do if they were released to the society. Imagine how big and uncontrollable a crime must have gotten."

"Some of them were innocent," Hyoyeon sighed.

"We can't take any risk."

"We made them like they are today. Eeteuk and his gang, if we didn't push them to the edge then--."

Hyoyeon lost in her thought. She didn't want to do it anymore, she didn't want to be an agent anymore. The organization was killing people although

they did it to find the cure. But it was just wrong.

Sunny and Sooyoung drove Yoona to her home after her hearing. Through the snow pale winter road.

"I'm sorry, Unnie?," Yoona apologized.

Sooyoung looked back from the front seat to Yoona, "stop apologizing. You know we actually glad you tore down the facility."

"But all the hard works you've done up to this point just gone wasted? and Junsu?," Sunny cut Yoona.

"Oh, come on. You should worry about yourself, what are you going to do after this?" asked Sunny.

Yoona sighed. She got cut off from the organization. Her badge, her weapons and everything related to it was confiscated.

"I think I'm going to live an honest life?"

Sunny and Sooyoung cracked up.

"Be careful not to do something that could make the organization De-Chrysalized you then," Sooyoung joked.

Yoona looked out the window the whole ride. What would she do now that she's out of the organization? She can't do anything else besides hunting.

The car went to a direction Yoona really familiar with. The car was going to pass through Seohyun's house.

"Unnie," Yoona said.

"Hm?" Sunny said, "what?"

"Can I get off here?"

"But your house is still quite far."

"It's fine. I want to walk I guess," Yoona smiled.

Sunny pulled over the car. "Be careful, okay?"

"I will," Yoona stepped out of the car and waved good bye.

She watched the car until it disappeared on the curve before she walked back and looked at Seohyun's house. Should she go in or not? She asked

herself.

Then the front door opened and Seohyun came out with Jessica.

Yoona was about to turn back but she didn't.

"Let's try to be me," she said.

Yoona pushed the fence and walked closer to the house.

"I got to go now," Jessica hugged Seohyun before she stepped down the porch but she stopped when she saw Yoona.

Ah, she's back. Jessica frowned.

Yoona bowed a bit at Jessica, "annyeong haseyo."

"Hm," Jessica coldly returned the bow.

"Hi, Hyunnie," Yoona smiled at Seohyun but Seohyun froze.

"Hyunnie?"

Seohyun took off her left sandal and threw it to Yoona, "you never call!"

"Hey! Wait!" Yoona dodged the sandal.

Seohyun attacked again with her right sandal, "you never answer my calls!"

Yoona caught the sandal, "I can explain!"

"You forgot about me!" Seohyun's eyes started to sparkle with tears so she hurriedly went inside the house, slamming the door as she did.

Yoona sighed, "I guess it can't be help."

Yonna turned around and bumped into Jessica.

"Ah, sorry," Yoona apologized, "I thought you were already--."

"Go after her," Jessica said with her piercing glare.

"Huh?"

"Go after her. Go!" Jessica pushed Yoona lightly on her back.

"But--."

"This time it's you who can stop her from crying, Yoona," Jessica pushed Yoona again.

"O, okay, I will."

Yoona stepped up the porch.

"Hey."

Yoona turned around.

"If I ever find you making her cry again," Jessica retorted, "I'll hunt you down."

**

An overture to death.

Junsu lifted his feet and put it on his desk. He was smiling proudly. He touched a pile of file folders on the desk with his feet.

"Poor, Hyoyeon. All her life's work is in my hand," he said.

He jumped up from his seat and walked around the office when someone knocked on his door.

"Yes, come in, please," he said.

Seunghyun opened the door but he didn't come in, he just stood in the doorway.

"You called me?" he said. Seunghyun was furious. In rank, Seunghyun was a step higher than Junsu but the higher brass made Junsu a golden boy for

catching a rat in the organization, Yoona.

"Oh, yes, I'm sorry," Junsu smiled, "I just want to say that I need your every platoon to get ready."

"Are you ordering me?" Seunghyun narrowed his eyes.

"Oh, right, sorry. You're still my superior. But hey, don't worry, I'll be far higher than you in a day or two," Junsu cocked his head to the side.

Seunghyun clenched his teeth, "what will you going to do?"

Junsu walked around his office one more time, crossing his arms, "you know what was Hyoyeon does that so wrong?"

Seunghyun watched Junsu took the pile of file folders.

"She never took advantage of what she had," Junsu knocked the folders with his fist and took a folder out, "do you know that Jung Jessica, Kim

Taeyeon, Kwon Yuri, Eeteuk and almost her whole fugitives are living in the same house?"

"I do," Seunghyun answered.

"And yet you didn't catch any single person yet?"

"We don't know where they live and it would be inappropriate for us to barge in to every house in Seoul, wouldn't it?"

"Yes, exactly? but then again, we could get them without even bother trying to look," Junsu confidently walked closer to Seunghyun with a folder in his

hand.

Seunghyun caught that train of mind and immediately protested that thought, "you will not do the same thing you do in the headquarters!"

Junsu grinned, showing his diamond white teeth, "oh, don't worry, I know a perfect place for it now," Junsu shoved the folder to Seunghyun.

Seunghyun opened the folder, it was Hwang Tiffany's folder. He read it from the top.

Junsu smiled, "do you know that she was spotted around a church three times already?"

"You're going to--!?" Seunghyun glared to Junsu.

"We have a trump card, Seunghyun. Taeyeon will surely come to us."

Jessica came home right after the sun had just set. She opened the house door and walked inside.

"I'm home," she said.

In the living room, everyone was gathering. Eeteuk looked at Yuri before he smiled to Jessica.

"Hey, have you eaten?" he asked.

"Yes," Jessica walked nervously to the living room.

"Good," Eeteuk nodded.

Jessica looked around. Everyone's face seemed to be worried.

"What happened?" Jessica sat down near Siwon.

In the middle of them was a paper.

"What is that?"

Eeteuk took a deep breath, "we have something to tell you."
