As fit and healthy as a lot of us can be, climbing up the stairs was tiresome just after three flights. As soon as we reached the fifth floor, we stopped to take a breather. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDxPTDfgOo

"Do we really have to go all the way to the manager’s office?" Jisoo asked. "Wasn’t Lee making her way down when we called her?" 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbcOi2aI1t
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlik3McW0UD
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ936TVKiSE
"She was," I answered. "If you ask me, we can start looking on this floor, or we can split." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGWD7aVcfu

"I say we stick together," said Seunghoon. "I’ve a feeling taking Johnny down will need some team effort." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgDPTiQL8H
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6u7YNaxPEN
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMylMAkG6k0
"Spoken like you’re leading the SWAT team," Mino teased. "Splitting up might be easier, but we’re only a few of us, so we need to stick together." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGzfs1mAzr
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTmSOvSsL5
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITzE5c7Q4c

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUuiZ2F3zL
We heard footsteps coming from upstairs. We looked at each other before darting down the hall, to hide round a corner. Seunghoon who was close, took a peek. The footsteps grew louder. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsk4EY0CeLQ
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcm3YJVHAa
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDz2pDgtcjS
"Can it be Johnny?" Zoey asked. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFslRBkiaUJ
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KZLW62TC9
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdOxfKzMuJ
"I doubt it," Mino whispered who leaned against the wall next to her. "That sounds like a lot of steps." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oc18gcI5D
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFPV1u5xru
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsm4eRdhK7p

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrgQzE9qI1
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6q7pvEIJ3
We all became silent, and a lot of us held our breaths. The sound of footsteps became heavier. We could tell it’s the security guards. We were lucky they didn’t stop on the floor we are on as they continued down the stairs. As the sound of their footsteps grew fainter, we slowly started to relax. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaCv91sf6v

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCX11babUyL
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMLi20o805

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotitCnedOh
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xphZqfK6i

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgKKziGjBb

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFPpCe61u8
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nq7UEcG2E
"I think we call anyway," said Zoey. "He obviously knows that the only way to draw us out is if he has Lee." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTg06MOtUu
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrBdd4VCxo
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwo82TmswMf

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pOuCymBoe
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWZSj91hCy
"Well, he would've called first if he wanted to draw us out," I said as I held my phone in my hand. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbIbDsrDKw
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmFhbMbx23
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PHKD8t93u

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzPSzSjMXl
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvX3LSOYK38
I put my phone back in the pocket. "We just have to look for her the old-fashioned way," I answered. "If we do call, he'll be expecting us and who knows what he might do." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zSwVv3Gyl
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU70rfHqp68
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCB66shMsch
"So you want to catch him off guard?" Jisoo asked. "Will that even work?" 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivUsgXA6OJ
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1WSiTOOnv
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Rvy1t1LNx

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkA72CA6P0

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUToko2QCMV

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tElkWhhm1
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cdwhOZCD4
"What’s on this floor anyway?" I couldn't help but ask as I felt like the place is pretty much empty. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbEDUfZiyh
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUxw9sLKqD
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbda6hbuBzb
"There are rooms that were once used for practice till they moved them downstairs. They plan to renovate and make offices here," said Mino. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZsucWX6KG
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyb12pVZSgB
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XXoSW65y6
"Is this the only floor where renovations are taking place?" I stood in the middle of the hall to take a good look beyond. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguTNL174Ha

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS331AUQ5xp
"This feels like the perfect place for Johnny to keep Lee. The place is quiet, and it’s the only place where there’s nobody around." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbvWv7lCZK
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKL5yC05U0
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqdVTdOVwS
"Well, the bodyguards should’ve thought of that before bypassing this floor," said Zoey. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThXk8zmSvH
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ndsrKddwc
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVTCEznqTK
"Maybe they did, and they couldn’t find anything to convince them that someone could be hiding here," said Jisoo. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBAR65IwmL
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5RAqMLyP5
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNLG3VFvw8

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA18NDuGicg
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe36NvR7QCC
As we were about to make our way down the hall, I stopped. I hear something. Mino who went ahead of me, noticed and stopped also. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkTyqaIaLx
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWlTd4RTSs
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dQaLNHjgR
"Hey, are you okay?" he asked. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxY6hWxiV9E
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLTX41xkkM
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQnGmLlAfL

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEF9BkkdTYZ
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwgOZlAfXf
"What? Why?" Zoey asked, turning to look at me. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUR5WyKw07
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpa4ihAzfV
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAuK9VFaQK
"Someone’s coming," I answered. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xAON0VD3L
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fXYFOpfjy
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupLurWuIZT
We all paused. We could hear footsteps coming up the stairs. Likewise, we tiptoed quietly down to the first door down the hall. Seunghoon who is the first to reach it, opened the door and in a line, we all entered the dark room. The place smelt of dust and the air is stuffy. The windows haven’t been open for a while. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oirnA7sYI
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0adyr8Taxf
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwS2IMBCA7f
Seunghoon is the last to enter and closes the door behind him. We’re almost in the dark, but light came in through the translucent glass window on the door. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqkdGixsvx
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6NY3nfC8x
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdbBzpOBq1
"Can we turn on the lights?" Jisoo asked in a whisper. "It’s dark in here." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0smFcRlZBw
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcoGpcacef
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnwS3jbrL7
"We can’t," said Seunghoon. "There’s a translucent glass window on the door. If we turn on the lights, the person down the hall will tell someone is in here." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VSfFuwhGt
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqL5FBp4mS
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJy8D6fRlVl
"Ssh," said Mino. "Do you hear that? The person is coming." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eyyz8BMMw
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzFlSiskI7
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJelmY7JQC
We all kept quiet. Who could it be? Could it be Johnny? What if it’s one of the guards? If it’s the latter, we'll be in big trouble and will be escorted back to the studio. If it’s Johnny, we need to be careful. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8pyqVyQNM
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcp63hc6uzZ
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCnHMtbCHC
Seunghoon slowly opened the door so as not to make a sound. The rest of us stood there, waiting for confirmation if the person out there is a threat. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUyTGJJ2ik
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvoKAdhtk6
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpinmFbLyxA
We hear footsteps come closer, and I see the person through the glass, bypassing the door. I turn to look at Seunghoon to see any reaction on his face. Before I ask, he already made a move by drawing the door wide open and stepping into the hall. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEmkXZlDnX
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNbNThkFek
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE92GhizEmQ

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwYvxvj4Dq
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1NMbixCLf
"Don’t worry, guys, it’s GD," Seunghoon came back into the room to address us. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYF1zzPZIY
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbj91qftSKf
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ219lAaayuj

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iH7ly4dmV
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsFGIgF6xO
Mino, Zoey and I also stepped out of the room. G-Dragon stood there in a red fresh paint jacket with a black jumpsuit and a white shirt on. He’s just as surprised to see us. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMPsycyleP

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bjQNWxbz6
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDWQgnzng0
"Well, to answer your first question, we’re out here trying to look for Johnny," said Zoey, folding her arms. "For the second one, we finished recording the song." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTabhPILWH
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESkn1WKev0
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNDdTwb7Dq

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrlNm7hmHv
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMdOgEr978

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWqbI4wMOU
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMt7q5ACcvF
"We think Johnny has Lee," I added. "She never came back to the studio. When we called, she said she ran into him, and she sounded like she was running away." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSzvBCvM7a
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqRvsPhN5m
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaNlemDmfr

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yRMsxdCuj
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMn6pBwvUi
"Really?" Zoey asked, raising an eyebrow. "How can we be so sure that you're looking for him?" 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10JtRrJvAk
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7uvLficof
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWbAultQ0K
G-Dragon and so did the rest of us turn to look at her, wondering why she could ask such a question. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhW0XLtzNO
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OnmHO5hye
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7WrKmnwTx
"Don’t get me wrong, guys," said Zoey as she noticed the looks, "but didn’t GD bring Johnny here in the first place? So how can we tell you aren’t just going to lead us into a trap?" 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWL2pMXQxC
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JByPY6Si0
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDJyjqsbDJ

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMavUdhVQch
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozXQuYzGar

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKmTt1g1WW
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn52wPZpQYy
"Zoey, enough," I intervened. "Telling him that we told him so right now isn’t going to help us find Lee." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlCobw2Yx1

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AbEjRWLTr
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsSf6v82sN
"Wasn’t the crowd he drew towards us last night evident enough that Johnny is crazy? Yet you brought him here on the grounds that you two are friends." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp56Cj09Z5c
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSBaA2ictQ
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9TUaeVz6A
"Zoey, calm down," said Mino as he came and held her shoulders. "GD never knew Johnny would take things too far. We should listen to Sam and find Lee first." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rNpRV4Y76
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryAWpQLvY4
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoZZbiE6VK
"Fine," said Zoey. "But after we find Lee and Johnny should at least be arrested, I’ll make sure to claw your face out, GD." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfs4Q4etRn0
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQeViudD1S
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1j3N1aCG1V

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJeGUARubk

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7VZd9A7hw
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRniUEesgxK
"No, he hasn’t," he answered. "I tried calling him a few times, and he hasn’t replied. I thought of looking for him, but it's been difficult since the guards don’t want anyone wandering around. I managed to get away as I was held in the lobby. Likewise, I thought of coming to this floor, since the rooms aren’t being used." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TpsJZho7k
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPsJe9zF0z
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVi2PNcbjyR

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kekbHBbGo
"Well, they’re definitely not in this one," said Zoey as she looked at the door of the room we were hiding in. She started her way down the hall, bypassing G-Dragon. I noticed the look she gave him. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpQIcgvFe4
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUibhcKJS6
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalHLJs5TC6

GD and I join the search. Seunghoon and Jisoo had already entered one room. We approached the open door, and the lights were on. There isn’t much in the room. There were a few things lying around and furniture that had been covered with white cloths to prevent the dust settling on it. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2aQieu8YR
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5y9lrcU85
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpN2UqRJThM

GD went on ahead, opened the door and turned the lights on. He stood there as he looked, and I joined him. There’s nothing much to see with only two carton boxes and pieces of paper on the floor. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaaHKJF4tk

"Nothing, here," he said as he slowly started to close the door. Then I caught a glimpse of something through the corner of my eye. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxESW1vQ9X

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkhLU5H7hs
"Hey, wait," I said as I also held the door to stop GD from closing it. I draw it wide open and look inside the room. My attention is drawn towards the two large carton boxes. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6MWFdxMs2

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUNqMpLUCr
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9Ce0ZRd9T
The box did move. My eyes widened, and I turn to look at GD, whose mouth is agape. He saw it too. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrd4WCIr69v

Before I could go any further, I felt G-Dragon take hold of my hand. I stop and turn to look at him. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XkD2i7eFH

I nodded. I turn towards the box in the room and the both of us slowly approach it. We pause at the same time when the box moved again. We continue our approach and as soon as we’re close, I lean forward and find that the top of the box is covered. The box gently shook again. I draw out my hand to uncover the box but G-Dragon is quick to grab it to stop me from doing so. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpykYjGWuS

A soft little ‘meow’ came from inside the box. I gave a mocking look at G-Dragon, and he scratched the back of his head, embarrassed. I went on to open the box and inside it is a small, black, furry kitten. It looked up at us with its cute, sparkling green eyes and meowed again. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0Pr23NoLg

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ681NMWUyDT
I bent over to get it out of the box. At first, it backed away into a corner and I knew I had to let it trust me first. I gently let my palm touch the top of its head and started to pet it. Soon enough, it purred and rubbed its ears around my hand. I soon brought in my other hand and lifted it out of the box. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYa1tKo5MY

"Hey, guys, have you found….?" Jisoo appeared through the door and as soon as she saw the kitten in my hands, she got excited and quickly came towards us. Mino also came in and had a confused look, wondering why Jisoo reacted that way. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmAvYQmf6c
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡil7xX5J1b0

The four of us with the kitten in my arms left the room and continued our search. We looked in every room and no luck so far. We are left to search on the other side of the floor. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGf33xQ3JVV

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIXusZiE4n
"Goodness," said the guard as he scratched his head. "I was coming down the stairs with her. I told her to go back to the studio on her own since the other guards had called for me. As I was climbing up, Johnny appeared on one of the floors and ran past me. I tried to stop him, but then I lost my footing and fell a couple of stairs. I'm afraid I might have twisted my ankle. Likewise, I told Lee to run as soon as Johnny showed up." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXvJ4cBMEG

"We found Johnny above the stairs on our way down," said the guard. "He might have chased her up to this floor, I’m not so sure. But I couldn't move quickly because of my twisted ankle." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWqBrgDHws

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEVagVpyaD
"No, but if someone like Johnny wants to go around unnoticed between floors, that stairway is the best way. They are usually locked and only opened during emergencies. There’s a storeroom in the underground basement. He might be hiding there." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRNSCzvXCQ

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlSG2lZi9v
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUPQKgnb2O
"He shouldn’t know that we’re out here looking for him." I answered. "GD, quick, answer it." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BBePw81dq

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVSpREvA4y
GD slid the call button to the right and put the phone to his ear. "Johnny, hey? Where are you?" he asked. "I’ve been waiting in the lobby." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMujoEYWik
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbn5Mm7sRk

We could Johnny loud and clear as he responded: "I’m in the underground basement. I thought I would join you in the car park outside." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fgfI3cGns

"You’re in the basement? How did you get there? The whole place is on lockdown. They say someone cut the power and the guards are looking for whoever is responsible." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wKjHTJFu6

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZuW8tRVXz
Zoey rolled her eyes and I prayed she wasn’t going to mutter out something stupid, but she didn’t. I wish I could blow out a sigh of relief, but that will only draw Johnny’s attention. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3jFD1nb1N
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3GB8kengW
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4GJugY4R6
"Are you still down there?" GD asked. "I can come join you, and we can walk to the car park outside. That’s if the guards will allow us to pass through." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcqCa31W4Q
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjK7RpnwWv7

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmHvzgL2CF
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OCvDhkdC5

Zoey turned towards the emergency exit door and drew it open. She made her way first down the stairs with Jisoo and me following behind her. Mino and G-Dragon were last, with G-Dragon closing the door behind him. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7t02NrM1TE
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQ1Fdo7BIf
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhXTdDBj8C
We make our way down the stairs, and we were much quicker this time. Before we reached the ground floor, I stopped everyone. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUy8GvV3tnj
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkKKTx6sce
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINPQuyUJQx

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnrsW8tI6P
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqf7k8HSK8

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTKSXeTkgj
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1gIs8u20E

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnIs4p7n8u
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBvk7u3dHs

We all turned to look at her, and she had her arms folded with her nose high up in the air. Oh, boy. I think I know what this is about. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ea3BI0Nie
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRm8YJaDDb

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDue43U0LP
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9F8QyhxV2v
If I were Jisoo, I wouldn’t have asked that question. But she doesn’t know Zoey like I do, so she better prepare to get her mind blown. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0NFQlDwEJ
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWt97Y80mq
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWa8trIKj6E

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6qKutQNJ4
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7fIZJOJ3d
Jisoo looked at Zoey, dumbfounded. I turned to look at Mino and GD who like me, didn’t seem the least bit surprised. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9dDExf7hl
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8tVi16SXB

"I know we said if Johnny does annoy us, especially with the album, we would then teach him a lesson," I said. "But right now, we need to find Lee. Dealing with Johnny will have to come later." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpJmzN0mqo
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MX3YhpkwQ

Zoey sucked on her teeth and continued to lead the way down the stairs. I really need to keep an eye on her. She might have agreed not to do anything, but that’s Zoey. A moment later, she’ll find herself doing what she intended to do, and I’ll be left to deal with her mess. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnsnyHf0xd
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFRhpA8pyU
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3omYt0Qem
We are now in the basement and before Zoey could open the door. GD stepped forward. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUzqG0rpOx
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvq1JUjs0C
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9U9d97R9dA

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09C3hETpSA
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzWbhU4rY2
Zoey gave him a nod of her head showing that she understood. She stood aside and GD went to open the door. He did it slowly to look around before fully stepping out. He turned to us standing by the door. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfG33L86ou
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1A3JinqwWB
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQXS4Py0He
"Don’t come out until the coast is clear," he whispered to us. He looked over at Mino. "You come over by the door and keep a look-out. You know where the storeroom is." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIuwQ5WpgA
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7IdDQYJCn
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlx9RLXHhEm
Mino gave a nod and went to stand by the door. G-Dagon soon walked away, leaving the door slightly ajar. Mino closed it for a bit so as not to be seen, but left a good amount of space for him to take a peek. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRfwlyoBtZ

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DeNmKwrba
GD walked away from the door and made his way towards the cars packed on the other side. He looked around and there seems to be no sign of Johnny. He thought of going round to the exit when he heard Johnny's voice behind him. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKKo405Dwv

G-Dragon turned and found Johnny coming from behind one of the pillars. He had a smile on his face like nothing is going on and GD felt his insides turn. What did he get himself into? 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQ9V9k1m0B
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniYSAVo8Wy
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrK8khSaw6L

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5P4G5GqgP
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBMq1SfIVH

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMMb2SoR18
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnel5olGPh0
"Okay, let’s get out of here," said GD. "The basement sometimes gives me the creeps when I stay too long." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvdnPyiMaR
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUSecCaTPY
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLQAm99ICp

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqBDYuGRI1
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkK51LnUJDH

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVvlCsiJOe
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznZK3zSLGZ
"Wow, things must be hectic, huh? You’re right, we better get going. I also wanted to see The Toxins, but looks like we’ll have to do that at another time." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXSD84HsJi
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeGJaZyNW1
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSwBb2eV2x
"Sure, let’s go." GD turned to lead the way and Johnny followed alongside him. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEbO5kHAYq
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBFGgIivqj
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCe3uKcPZR
Mino had seen Johnny as soon as he called out to GD. With the pillars and the cars in his sight of vision, it was hard to see them clearly, but he could tell they were walking towards the exit. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwigvVpeqPy
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshZfBbL5LN
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsmzsLl1Ui

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAzIamLJCk
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOY2vLPrM0

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBafDwI4so
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtKeDRzqGY
"Okay, they’re almost gone," said Mino as he slowly opened the door fully. "The basement storeroom is on our left. Follow me quietly." 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oG0kJBYjc
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7VDiXTfnA
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbooFOWsMU
Mino looked around first. He signalled with his hand to the others to follow. He walked out. Zoey and Sam followed, then Jisoo. Good thing about the place is that they could easily use the parked cars for cover. They walked up the curb with the cars facing them and bending over so as not to be seen. They were just about to reach the door of the basement when Jisoo suddenly fell on her knees. The rest stopped advancing and looked at their fallen comrade. GD and Johnny on the other side stopped walking too. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSqMhqvss5
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkM0XocWBXy
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGNMZSMY3G
"What was that?" Johnny asked, looking behind him. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyFQLqKah2
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdhDOrS4aP
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWG5N0jsG8

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gIITeVU14
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcEAbLPhgE
"I feel someone is in here," said Johnny. He started to walk backwards a little. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYArXmGgUxx
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHHz54GncW
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgRyuaCpW1
"Goodness," Sam muttered as she quietly but quickly came back for Jisoo. She squatted next to her. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpQtx0PwNk
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxGgDOEZ8k
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXd9EVrnjj

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TAZP1Xhcd
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAAnljOvQh

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvscD6d2wXm
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobRm7A60hf
With Sam helping her up, but careful enough not to stand upright, she and Jisoo started to make their way to the others. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnr1Kyfb5fV
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33nX9xGoFo
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsGtxQLMha
"I think I’ll go check it out," said Johnny as he fully turned around to make his way back. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwq647fI3K
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnXcat0BwZ
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDGUkSkXUO
Shoot, GD said to himself. He has to stop Johnny before he spots the others. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVxWROSBJR
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPB9TqwG8M
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAv5uX3rsNd
"Come on, it’s probably nothing," said GD as he turned to watch Johnny slowly walk away. "What? Do you think there’s someone ready to jump us?" 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVJDrvt1J3
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04RNXI0fgJ
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriAgTKn85E

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuZvo2bUut
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBW7sUfmQI
Sam and Jisoo managed to get to the others, and they quickly made their way to the door. Johnny was close and almost got to the storeroom, but he stopped. GD came up right behind him and prayed that Johnny won't spot them. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXKYBEb3dd
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMWpwdNLis
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9J3l1NqE3

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVklhMbif6
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLXxgRKQgY
"See, I told you," said GD as he felt relieved. He really thought Johnny was going to catch them. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IiF3ekhyi
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqS0rC7b4t
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0WsegnBtr
Just before the storeroom is a parked blue Sedan. That’s where Mino and the rest hid, hoping that Johnny wasn’t going to reach the car. If he did, he was definitely going to find them. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqO0FyjEvcY
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxipkl50ZWo
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiUGp3sT97
Mino bent his head to look round the corner of the car’s rear. GD and Johnny were going for the exit now. And he thought it best that they leave for good. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lFoXQgvUJ

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiANker4VdG
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0i3LoBMAhO
They continued to sit there on the gravel while Mino bent his head now and then to check. Finally, he saw GD and Johnny walk through the exit. 445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhqngF7s4f
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHFdMbeSYT
