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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXh6SzQYKRQ

"Who am I kidding?" said Zoey as she leaned upon the stair rail. "I’m so tired." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0RjsYaioF

"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?" 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhH0bHjGPk
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBX2inVEHQC
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlM7CtSWsT
"She was," I answered. "If you ask me, we can start looking on this floor, or we can split." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJe61y1vYOV

"I say we stick together," said Seunghoon. "I’ve a feeling taking Johnny down will need some team effort." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUlQ2rnuEm
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqc3jj2Gdn
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDubncgoYH6
"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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuW7faqBqQl
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKggAzJrog
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaUIiaXOzP
"That’s fine," I said. "I really wish we knew where she could be." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5wBJQXDAF

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cD3Cu2aYc
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBpImH2QO3
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZRPJYoMUe
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1WxsweVR5
"Can it be Johnny?" Zoey asked. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNV4eCfHIvs
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEH2aPNn4q3
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5eCGlvR04
"I doubt it," Mino whispered who leaned against the wall next to her. "That sounds like a lot of steps." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGAzCaNvnu
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSBrHRDavR
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoh05fi1va
"Ssh," Seunghoon whispered. "They're almost here." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLLqcJe6Zd
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKdTAJ4YhD
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinK9VqLxKs
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbyh4fHGxu
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjYnrx46Oh
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORCA7SHX0E

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCqc7FA8Na
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCrusEV01R
"Maybe you can call her again," Seunghoon suggested. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPD5GrTSZHo
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSSQkGcGB1
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6FIYiO4Sl
"Even if we do, and Johnny does have her, he'll know we’re coming for him," said Mino. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlT6iPadlG
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4eAtnihvV
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQrPxutXkc

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EgRZOlD2U
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4pnvyejGj
"I think we call anyway," said Zoey. "He obviously knows that the only way to draw us out is if he has Lee." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAcZPV24zR
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdw6TiiRz6
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6x1f2oudnh
"Or he might call us instead," said Jisoo. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzX7FWTluLH
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvIZWUuOcz
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWit2ukcbA0
"Well, he would've called first if he wanted to draw us out," I said as I held my phone in my hand. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGYGu2yrhy
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYW4RvHjNyU
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TCza79gPL
"So what should we do?" Mino asked. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkU4IGl2Fp
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hSyL5Bpof
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfXm1FM8kg
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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIg7P6Eiio
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxbwPLPJYs
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWi63iJSVX2
"So you want to catch him off guard?" Jisoo asked. "Will that even work?" 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVxpDYKJym
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4csulPqtm
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxDvAtPGvZ
"It will be bad for us if we call. That way he will know we're agitated." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTr6beXyLoD
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TSy3aB3Dc
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsFfH70pUo

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1aGRMrM23
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8mlNOLxtU

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDadrouTAM
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27fwaVOl1u
"What’s on this floor anyway?" I couldn't help but ask as I felt like the place is pretty much empty. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTqSUT6SgG
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntkFFIy6UJ
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOseBJxXegE
"There are rooms that were once used for practice till they moved them downstairs. They plan to renovate and make offices here," said Mino. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbGWPFhxSC
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhQkJaDRce
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGroosnnkU
"Is this the only floor where renovations are taking place?" I stood in the middle of the hall to take a good look beyond. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIjY729BD6
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmu4oCOOBO
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueUyqY7Hc3

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSjC4fxhXZ
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLVscaeMvw
"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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0N7cTMgGpo
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkat1BjX1v5
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tF1UmFqxu
"Well, the bodyguards should’ve thought of that before bypassing this floor," said Zoey. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNRVBtWdD0
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIB7pPEORv
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryjWV85IRY
"Maybe they did, and they couldn’t find anything to convince them that someone could be hiding here," said Jisoo. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiJJ9ilT0j
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2BKsrMKzq
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2eRx2PAVd
"Well, let's see if we can find something," said Seunghoon. "But the rooms should be empty." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRgWCuGtfa
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadRiYiTPmv
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnkKkP9q8a
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbkUJQRI30
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3UO9yjvCO
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLx7VOcIdu3
"Hey, are you okay?" he asked. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvf64calxbM
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvpboM5jxr
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObsEoK0awx
"Everyone, hide," I said quietly. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiA06t7aa9h
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaf7gWZRkK
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyuovRGNvx
"What? Why?" Zoey asked, turning to look at me. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaPrMXwvmr
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡls66WR1uYe
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmatmOoTJjX
"Someone’s coming," I answered. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpw0ELFV80v
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00uH2CBi8E
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHR3u8fQ7aU
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiFV6L7Ob9
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG84ssOxibt
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFavMT3V24u
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUq788grgEu
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7e0jWtAjw
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoER09V3FPC
"Can we turn on the lights?" Jisoo asked in a whisper. "It’s dark in here." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamPopcaq4c
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlKOwBGv9l
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tD2dJjpVN
"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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMbU5RlSMU
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8acZ1KJ9C
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivkNKSJwWm
"Ssh," said Mino. "Do you hear that? The person is coming." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcq2BousZZq
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80c7ewI3SV
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyE85dhmR29
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvMqIwm9T0
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrn1NJBiLiD
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrZX4Ype3l
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdIiSmulAU
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2DxRqXPb3
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSCrG0AmkM
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1Bksqb890
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WO5P1j7dZ
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgpDgWhpc4

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlq8LP4j12
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZW7x6jv4Vo

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheqNh1T46S
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVMkXLvptY

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDvuzMDMwn
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGg8doto1P6
"Don’t worry, guys, it’s GD," Seunghoon came back into the room to address us. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiq3RVOvCJ
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMS0m0U18fm
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRSvf5BRgk

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqJRXwrwPS
"Oh, oppa," said Jennie stepping out of the room to join Seunghoon in the hall. "How did you find yourself here?" 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjEtTTjmUa
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsO1is6GrEt
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ADD8XT1PW
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1caaM3dq9
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvuQYdF9H3
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6k0oe2ZndP

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Khhhe9LFl
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2xxwRxkwv
"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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9OHOp3ruK
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWtSNKZfKT
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuVPoVmqyv
"Oh, that’s good to hear. But I thought you were kept under guard." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSAgMP43cI
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOuZjEjMvS
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsKqVdxDBr
"We were," said Mino. "But we had to sneak out to find Johnny." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWDZv1KiBX
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY05j3KlNcH
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1rj97Y5KB
"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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7esBMZv9S
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCG5vHXSBBr
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKybCS4bFNg
"That’s not good," said GD. "I also came up here to try and find him." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIk1VgWTEk
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvifPeDDhWy
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMC5zxF604
"Really?" Zoey asked, raising an eyebrow. "How can we be so sure that you're looking for him?" 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJHCbxkSh9
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwODIaIS44
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SOvGOLDDk
G-Dragon and so did the rest of us turn to look at her, wondering why she could ask such a question. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGy6DJLt06I
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxnxvEKJ2D
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMp39uKYQdY
"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?" 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDO2lcXn9X
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLYeZQfW8E
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQK8RLpDaYS
"And why would I do that?" GD asked, not believing the words coming out of Zoey’s mouth. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50v9iEZ2tR
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIB2g1Ir0v8
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgmydBVNY6

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCZOM0NMIh
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnjizmVNVJ
"Yeah, right. We warned you about him, but you didn’t listen to us, did you?" 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhIFQt304D
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXaz9QbrjU
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9J52G4EoXn
"Zoey, enough," I intervened. "Telling him that we told him so right now isn’t going to help us find Lee." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYkz6dj8fW
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpvXTmoUmb

"I didn’t know he was going to pull off something like this," G-Dragon defended himself. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbtmTojtHa
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2KeGTzE5s
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKNNZmb0wN
"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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Q7yrDIx1r
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡix2Q9i5tto
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1cJS7VO4c
"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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgPbVnLQPp
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABekVtgdDu
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBgGeF3ecK
"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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SK3SQSVx4
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9GhRhxAzC
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7y1oyoToLH
"Won’t that also get you arrested?" Jisoo asked. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxteKU1IHM3
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNr8ZSvUMW
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTGJihGuVU

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Q8aQF91gX
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hAmInWgZY
"With that on stand-by, what are you doing here GD?" I asked, turning to look at him. "Did Johnny communicate with you?" 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMmjts3qdt
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGdynVEF8S
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovj6yLhVLM
"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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6H9RRGL7r
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeHl1ixQbO
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gafnz3RqQ

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFVk7N4lLg
"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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlRAv3fqcb
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡam2SATAECT
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLAJnXEpVx

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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAETsvrnDE
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7HFMAchIU
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO78hzBKlT0
GD went ahead, and I followed him to the next room where there’s Mino and Zoey. There were boxes and furniture covered in cloths all around. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHpPJeA77X

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMX2BBp8AS

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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsOW7emiJL
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkKOa3XPLZ
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCSUFPEY2O
"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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡic7ABTBkVg
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbvXOPzYZE
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbH8RwxwXu
"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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXlvPoWrX6

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5JitllBYr
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivIRX8uFLv
The box did move. My eyes widened, and I turn to look at GD, whose mouth is agape. He saw it too. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZApNg3PgbV

Before I could go any further, I felt G-Dragon take hold of my hand. I stop and turn to look at him. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeY55SHbAdn

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBCk0ZMiVA
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdb1guRutZy

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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbk7kPfaym

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3U2vGsxo5C
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8rQQDrw22

"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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyW6aNF79oK

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CvVZXcqlD

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYV27pD2WLV

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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfANSW2dlt

We made a turn going to the left and Seunghoon who led the way, stopped in his tracks. Even when I'm not close to him, I could tell his body has grown tense. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifUtLy55lK

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNvIyRhQDO
"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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfXPZqEgF1

"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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSs2ChnhcL

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTWKBxwoLP
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsqmpbyJuu
"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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2AGE8kkCn

As soon as Zoey opened the door, GD’s phone soon started to ring. We all paused to look at him. He took his phone out of his pocket, and his eyes widened with surprise when he looked at it. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hs57EqIva

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRp7glop3R7
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtjjc5tFpj
"He shouldn’t know that we’re out here looking for him." I answered. "GD, quick, answer it." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpyyv12lrl

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1q4yn4EIf
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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkFUcNY1dg
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPu7laIA13t
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRT8qpedopQ
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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pRaSwmmm5

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0u8VZo0Utb
"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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXguZOOjah

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWPzz2fdHz
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMf0ZEmpXxO
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXG0wiWBSx
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxDgL4KXkP
"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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLWI02M9Rs
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXH5oRGjWh4

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30D9gavMcD
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCj8uzGcqi
"We just have to be careful on how we’re going to do this," said Mino. "Do you think we should also inform the guards?" 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1CLJnskN4
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWgjVheuuR

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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ68leiVdqh
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNZ0uIN38S
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0ZEq3Hynj
We make our way down the stairs, and we were much quicker this time. Before we reached the ground floor, I stopped everyone. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrVO90Zmd1
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUv1PG2VWot
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JThUzzVXP

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSOnVKsQBE
"I’ve been down there a lot, so we can try to move around while G-Dragon keeps Johnny distracted," said Mino. "If we do find Lee, we can help her." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDQwXmruxx
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNGxCkfO1U
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vctV50vIx

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwqTCf09ft
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cfdLxX3P6

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IYDUEQaj7
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPcPExJykm

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5GUlF25Wp
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAwUmqRcrd

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44gO63DchV
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qeVMIGfN5
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7q6wVGvFW
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIO5vLpIAZ

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiUU8xwbEW
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOtqKP8Ukw
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyA8K1zeDk
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQdyXvOqdT
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24gsk8paPi

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvQ41v6OmQ
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgKQp52bVj
Jisoo looked at Zoey, dumbfounded. I turned to look at Mino and GD who like me, didn’t seem the least bit surprised. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKrXu0XqBi
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfABaNTl3E8

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ep8I8yfOL
"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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPSFdq2Srd
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcn84r0a81c

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhiGZrj9nh
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMQgpBFskG
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqzFo2o682
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVZaeGU05F
We are now in the basement and before Zoey could open the door. GD stepped forward. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhL4fl5QEHY
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwSwUiPVe4
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ouS9twWL9
"Let me be the first to go," he said. "Just in case, he's wondering around the basement car park." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15D5x0VbXv
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSCnwxShpQ
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2XRVoGG7C
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35I4CsNQNU
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdiyRfamZNM
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bSdb8sjaj
"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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYev8BbwjqE
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdrrR0J1x7
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LmnhPDd9W
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNotjHhlKxC

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeOxqpGopu
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4UYUDJA9V

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? 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QB3LjFmrj
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZvABfbqcD
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKeyBs68yIJ

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdSnXpdwIq
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7uUNNKDB4

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwu4qCm2Ze
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5VUZhQ2hN

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjex2Xkx1UI
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPYDZbiHOv

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGTJP8Vb9Q
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wqh2OL8OY

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IQOl2or59
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3chvEGwnR
"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." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHY3yqaSBQ9
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HNccQtO8m
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDSVj0Jwg2
"Sure, let’s go." GD turned to lead the way and Johnny followed alongside him. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcW1evsbcn
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDngXNhkl1w
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DLV9NoMU3
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzpsZtk9kl
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKCJThLWFF
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPnfQS2lC0

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1f5NKkqNp8

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUtCFKqaj2
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHJFsuSnbg
"Okay, they’re almost gone," said Mino as he slowly opened the door fully. "The basement storeroom is on our left. Follow me quietly." 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOh6I5nUHN
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6tOvIR6rX
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtk3Oyq1Uq
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseQ1Fo9FGc
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw51EJ68PRN
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uzWPMtKmu

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PlbHODNcK
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiJdKeQP0r

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vYtWEQPsn
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ae2GY1qk5

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDHAV6g58N
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQ6loWzXGt

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkPHazYp31
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGqsJBrWlX

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjjrYGjyTY
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5WcNYSFRE

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4kOf5SL7Q
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZDHREPFGt
With Sam helping her up, but careful enough not to stand upright, she and Jisoo started to make their way to the others. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLOchbLY4l
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvY3M4D9Xx
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIriZQZow7

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiQyZM9atv
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QeOlneoM6
Shoot, GD said to himself. He has to stop Johnny before he spots the others. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWJhwegES7
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEN98oFpuWl
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnoUi4nU16
"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?" 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zvcqmIuOX
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2i1s6oezh
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8At6fhOGb

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uiUwuV5wL
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QIqSUMeYy
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDcQPXjc7j
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnqcUaVF9s
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwHHAsaDjl

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEcoY5cRCl
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jUv813yBE

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrL1NoWz57z
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaU8HXRkmc
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Yb6bt1kaE
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUc8bkYm5JH
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLi62Yv9GKH
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcZ1iiTahY

379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBftAVOJ0os
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. 379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHU5UzgeXB
379Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtLBT1iQSv
