(1st Person POV)

The next day,

I asked Ben," What was the Union you were talking about yesterday before the fight?"

Ben had a sombre expression on his face and said," I also don't know much. It is an organisation that rules over the area of Yeongdeungpo. The head of it is Donald Na. Jimmy Bae, the one you fought yesterday is also in the union."

"Hmmm...So we need a person who is informed of things like this, huh? I have the right individual in my mind. You guys go to the pool room. I will bring him with me."

I went to my class and looked around for the student. I saw the person, I was looking for.

"Hey, Eugene! Are you free today?"

He got surprised by me talking to him and then mumbled," Y-Yes"

"Ok, then. Do you know some information about the Union?"

"The Yeongdeungpo Union? Whose leader is Donald Na?"

"Yeah, that one. I want to get some information regarding it and you seemed like a person who will know about these kinds of topics, so I wanted to ask you."

"Y-Yeah! I know most of the things about them." He said hurriedly.

"Ok, then. Come with me." I hang my shoulders around him and go to the pool room with him.

(At the Poolroom)

"Hey! First, let's play pool. We can talk about the Union or whatever afterwards." I said to them.

"Yay! But still, Let's order food first then play." Ben said with hunger apparent on his face.

'Why is he so hungry all the time? Does he have a black hole in his stomach?'

"Ok, so let's see who wants what? Chinese Food or Tteokbokki? It's Chinese Food for me." Ben implored them.

Gray and Stephen also asked for Chinese Food.

Gerard, Alex, me and Eugene asked for Tteokbokki.

Alex said while laughing," Haha, I knew Tteokbokki would prevail."

Ben replied in return indignantly," But Tteokbokki doesn't even deliver. Someone will have to go and get it."

"Let's have Rock, Paper and Scissors. The two people who lose will have to go and get it." I offered a suggestion.

Alex and Gerard lost in the Rock, Paper and Scissors.

"Now, you two have to go and get it! The rest of us will play while you guys are outside." Ben said as a dig."

After playing for some time,

"Ah... Here you guys come. Why did it take so long for you two to buy some fried rice?" I asked them inquiringly.

Alex had a really pale face. It looked like he saw a demon. He said," On the other side of the intersection, I saw Donald Na."

"That head of the Union? Why are you guys so scared?" I asked them with honest curiosity.

Ben said," Felix, it's high time. You know, why is Union such a big deal. The person you brought with you can explain."

"Ok, first of all. Let me explain to you Eugene. Yoosun just got crushed by us yesterday-"

"What?! The rumours were true about you guys beating Yoosun?" He shouted in surprise cutting me in between.

"Yeah, those rumours were true."

"So, you really defeated Jimmy Bae?" Eugene asked still with a hint of scepticism on his face.

"Yeah! You think I am not strong enough to defeat people like them?" I asked while feeling kind of offended.

"N-No, Of Course, not." He replied nervously." It's just that you didn't have any injuries when you came today and the rumours seemed exaggerated, so I thought that they were only rumours."

"Hmm...Good point. Now tell me about the Union."

Everyone else also starts listening attentively.

"It is a delinquent syndicate consisting of five schools - Yoosun, Hyeongshin, Ganghak, Dahyeon with Yeovil at the centre of it. Donald Na is the head of it and he has been leading this Union since his middle school days. "

"Let me explain to you about these schools first - Yoosun High School, its head is Jimmy Bae who was defeated by Felix yesterday. Jimmy Bae is a person who is driven by his ego. It seems unlikely that he will report yesterday's fight to Donald Na and will most probably keep quiet."

"Hyeongshin High School, its head was Myles Joo earlier but he was excommunicated from the Union in the last meeting. So now, Hyeongshin has lost some of its fighting power. Its current bead is Forrest Lee. He is a person who calculates his adversary's actions and attacks them severely. His fighting power, though less than Myles Joo, is still not to look down at."

"Ganghak High School, its head is Wolf Keum. Wolf is a person whose actions are instinctive. All of his moves are instinctive. Also, he has a three-second rule in which if a person looks at him for 3 or more seconds, that person will be beaten by Wolf."

"Dahyeon High School, its head is Jake Ji who is said to be the strongest in the Union after Donald Na. It wasn't expected for Dahyeon to join the Union. The reason was the last year when the middle school union with Donald Na as their leader was at its peak. Their notoriety spread across Yeongdeungpo Union. In middle school, he wasn't absorbed into any party. He walked his own path. Basically, that man was too great to fit any kind of system. He's loyal. He likes to read comics-"

I stopped him from going onto a tangent," Yeah, Yeah! We heard you. What do you think is the reason for Donald Na coming in this area?"

He thinks for a bit and then said," I don't know exactly but I heard Donald Na goes from school to school on the last day of every month for something like an accounting conference. And the nearest school to Eunjang will be Hyeongshin. So, Forrest Lee?"

"Haa..."I let out a big sigh. " This is too much to think of. Let's play pool. We will see Donald Na or whatever later. By the way, Eugene, what were the rumours about me?"

"They were....."

(3rd Person POV)

Hyeonshin School,

Forrest Lee enters the room in which Donald Na is sitting

Donald Na said," Things are going just fine. I got myself worried for nothing. So? Have you adapted a little now? Forrest Lee."

Forrest Lee replied confidently," You thought I would have done the job without this level of preparation?"

"Also is that information true about Jimmy Bae getting crushed by Eunjang and not even Ben Park?" Forrest Lee asked.

"Yeah, that adorable little fu**er. Got his ass handed by an unknown person."

"Try to get this done within your level, Forrest Lee. Crush Eunjang entirely. Make sure you take care of the person who beat Jimmy Bae."

"So, Felix Shin, the-"
