2 Cake To A Tough Nut

I know I can do it. But do you know that I can do it?

Y/N's P.O.V-

'I have sent you the inside planning of the dorm. Check it out.' I nodded as the voice from other side instructed, and fixed my eyes towards my phone on the sent picture.

'According to the source, the confidential were taken to the dorm just today and it confirmed about those being still inside there. You will find two blue files with 'Task 28' written on it. Those are the birds we are targeting on.'

'Hmm, but Momo, I don't have that much of a weapon with me. Just my regular gun and a knife, perhaps?'

'It's a sneaking mission so you won't really require using any weapon more than that. And if any emergency comes by, you are trained to handle situations both with and without weapons. So that's what you will do.'

'Okay, I have reached the place. I will get going now.'

'Woozi will be on the line with you from now on. Keep safe and professional.'

I parked the car a little far enough to keep it out of distinct vision. Fixing the tomboyish outfit, I pulled up my hair into a bun hiding under a beanie. Securing the gun under my shirt with the mini knife in my hand-band, I got myself out of the car. As soon as I did, the cold breeze shot me harder, making me curse myself being unlucky enough to be out at this icy cold night for a mission where I was supposed to be sleeping under my cozy blanket right now. Heck, a task it was!

I put on my mask and checked if the earpiece was properly placed in position. Voice came from the other side, this time a man's once, 'Y/N, have you gotten there already?'

'About to.' I marked my step forward towards the targeted location that stood some meters away from me. The neighborhood was all silent as if no creature dwelled in that whole place. The midnight sky had its full moon peeking out once in a while with its full appearance from behind the dense white clouds concealing the whole sky, only to create a mysterious vibe of itself and the surroundings. A few houses sat slightly apart from each other. Not a single person was outside their home, everybody was perhaps dreaming sweet and bitter scenes under their sheets of comfort. It seemed like an all-peace and quiet locality. Perfect for some 'specific' place to live- I thought to myself.

I stood before the locked front door. As I couldn't go through the front way for the cautionary purpose, I scanned around for some alternative way to go in. No sooner the cold air blown, my ears had faintly caught a low creak sound coming from the upper part of the dorm. As I looked following the direction, a smile was ready to get crept on my face. A window was slightly open, the glass jerking due to the wind's hard fist.

'Waving at me to come in, my window...' Giving the last quick check to feed my mind with relief, I skillfully climbed up towards the window, and jumped inside. With the faint light of the moon, I could barely see anything. So I brought out my night vision. It was a bedroom. Two beds sat side by side against the wall, accompanied by a lot of stuffed dolls by their side. I never knew gangsters were into stuffed toys. Pretty adorable gangsters they would be!

'Y/N.' as Woozi muttered, without further delay, I got to work. I started searching the room I went into. The room was a little messy. I pushed all the objects and checked out everything to find out the blue shade tainted structures. Getting nothing, I went into other rooms, searching through bookshelves, tables, beds, closets, absolutely everywhere but got the same result. There was everything, but not the thing I was looking for.

'Woozi, I can't find it. All that I see are useless household materials, foods, clothes, and mess,'

'You are checking properly, right?'

'Do you doubt me? I think I am pretty much expert in this job.'

'Yeah--- -zzz---zzz----. You still---zzz---zzzzz----zzzz okay?'

'What? Hello, Woozi? I can't hear you properly.'

'Y/N, hel--zzz-- me?' The earpiece glitched again. 'I think -zzz--- in the---piece...'

'God!' I shook the earpiece and put it on again, this is unbelievable. 'Y/N, can you-zzz--hear me?'

'Not very well, but much better than before. I think there's something wrong with my earpiece.'

'Even—zz- I think so.' 'I should go back to work.' I started my search again, unsure if I would succeed.

I entered the living room. It was like all other rooms, a bit of mess resting on its part. Clothes lied on the sofa ignorantly, video games scattered everywhere. While checking out the sofa, my hands felt a rectangular structure beneath it. quickly I led them down, to bring out two file-like structures before my eyes. I took a clearer look.

'Task 28! Yes!' I screamed through the earpiece.

'Y/N—zzz--! Nice work! Now quickly get zz—back.' 'Alright.' I went up and just at the moment, some faint sounds of footsteps caught my ears. My body stood firm instantly. Huh? Who is it? They weren't supposed to come back now!

'Woozi, I think someone's coming. You didn't inform me of anything. Wh- Woozi? Woozi?'

All that traveled out from the small thing were some ear-impairing buzzing noise, with no sound of male's voice.

FUCK! I jumped off the sofa keeping the files back to their places then ran towards the nearest place, which was, the kitchen. I hid behind the refrigerator, sticking myself to it completely, like being a part of it.

The low sound of unlocking the door sooner reached my ear and someone came in. A loud sigh was heard, with a voice in follow, 'Aish, Yoongi hyung! Always leaving stuff behind. And why it had to be me to lose in rock, paper, scissors?' The voice was deep and manly, revealing it's owner's pure annoyance. I made my ears sharper.

The footsteps proceeded inside to stand before the kitchen. It came in and headed towards the refrigerator. Being hidden behind it, my heart was pounding so hard with the fear of getting caught. However, I knew to keep my brain cool. Whatever I need to do in an emergency moment, I will do it. Seeming like, he was the only person of all who came in, so it won't be hard for me to bring down one man.

'Damn, I was so thirsty!' The cap of a bottle popped. Dragging out a chair, he sat down.

After he was done, the bottle was kept back and he went out. The footsteps got extinct, proceeding towards the inside, the bedrooms.

A few minutes passed by. I peeked out from the back of the refrigerator to take a proper view. It had been some moment but I could hear no sound, no footsteps in response. Where was he? I was getting impatient. I needed to act fast and that boy had to come by the right moment I got a hold of those files. What should I say?- Good timing!

Startling me, my eyes faintly a leg just beside the kitchen's entrance, a voice appeared. 'Found it!' I quickly tried to hide back behind the refrigerator, accidentally bumping into something and making a bold sound. Shit! I bit my tongue.

The person stopped. Though I couldn't see, I could almost feel the wrinkle formed on his forehead. He stood for a while.

'Ah, I must've heard wrong!' The light was turned off and the footsteps headed towards the front door. The door got locked. I waited for a few more minutes then dragged myself out of the hiding place. I talked over the earpiece, to see if it was working. 'Hey, Woozi!'

'Hello??' Like before, all I could hear were some long beeps in rhythm, with no response. I guess my luck isn't willing to favor me at all today. I sighed and went back to the living room. I ran my hands behind the sofa looking for the files, dragging them out.

'I'm back, my darling!' I said.

'So am I.' the light suddenly went on, revealing the tall figure standing right behind me.

Wha---?? My fist went back towards the person's face as a reflex. The person succeeded to dodge it and tried to grip my fist, however, couldn't. He tried to punch me back as the second attempt. I avoided to get hurt but my night vision got misplaced and slipped off my eyes. I took it off and threw it at his face. He flinched a bit, coming back in a mere second.

'Stupid ass! Ya think ya can get out of the lion's cave? I am gonna teach you a lesson!'

'We'll see who teaches whom.' I shot another strong punch towards his jaw to get him out of my way. A fight broke out between him and me. The person was strong I will admit, but I wasn't weak either.

Getting hit by my roundhouse kick, he landed hard on the sofa. I trapped him snaking my arm around his neck. He squirmed in pain, suffocating for air. 'Teaching me a lesson, huh?' I smirked, in satisfaction.

'Taehyung-ah, what's taking you so long?' the front door banged open and to my surprise, two more people came in.

'Hyung!' the guy beneath my arms took advantage of my slightest distraction and poked me on my stomach with his elbow. I made a yelp, my hands released him from the embrace.

Time for more action now I guess...

'Who is this-' before the sentence could get its complete form, I struck the person on the ear. Things whatever that came near my hands flew towards the targeted figures. One of them got hit but the other two came back twirling my arm backward tightly, pulling my waist too.

A fight broke again, this time with more people.

I had to get out of here fast with the files. But how? Are there more of them?

To provide an answer to my question, the front door was again getting opened and I heard more voices. 'Why none of you are coming out? Tae, Jin, Hobi-yah? What's going on?'

How many of them are there?

Am I getting trapped?
