Olivia's POV:
"YOU DID WHAT??!!!"
I yelled out loud for the whole world to hear probably. I swear if I had something sharp in my hand, it would have been inside this guy's guts. How dare he? How stupid can someone be to do this?
"Look look.. it was just an accident. It was kinda your mistake too Oli.. you shouldn't have drank that!!"
"Oh now you are blaming me? Right after you told me we should deal it like adults? Oh how mature of you Jison!!"
I suddenly felt all my systems wanting to shut down.. this was too much to take. I slumped down on the couch and sneaked a look at the guys standing behind me.
Fifteen minutes ago:
"Um.. you should stand up from your position first and sit down properly."
Why does he sound so awkward? I looked around and saw that I was lying on a couch. Does he have that much of a shocking news that I have to sit down?
But I decided not to question that too and sat up straight, with the guys standing behind the couch. I felt awkward talking to my friend from someone else's body..
"Um.. you see… I- I-.." Jison stuttered.
"Why are you stuttering so much?""Spit it out already.. you are making me anxious."
"First of all guys, don't kill me as yet when I say this.. I actually know the whole story.. of Ath-.. I mean Olivia in Suga's body. I know that it's not Suga hyung there actually."
"You do? HOW?"
"Seriously guys? Are you all gonna play that oh-Olivia-doesnt-know-korean-lets-talk-in-korean-then game?" I asked with that 'duh' tone in a whisper so that only the guys could hear me and not Jison.
"Look Ath-.. I mean.. Olivia, I already know that you are in Suga hyung's body and that Suga hyung is in your body."
"WHAT THE ACTUAL..? HOW DID YOU??"
He interrupted me saying, "Look Olivia, let's calm down and deal with it like adults okay?"
"Okay jeez let's calm down.." I said inhaling a deep breath, only to sneeze loudly. Shit.
Who's wearing that perfume?
Everyone around me stood awkwardly, waiting for me to compose myself.
"Okay I'm good. Carry on."
"Okay.. so, guys, I actually came here because of the agency me and Olivia work for."
Did he have to say that? Just then I looked above my head to see.. six hands holding six guns. Three of them pointed at Jison, And three of them at me. Oh. My. Lord.
Aren't they some freak idols? Celebrities?
Why do they have guns and why are they pointing it towards me and Jison? Just because he mentioned the word 'agency'? He didn't even say what agency..
I better not move. I saw Jison gulping with his hands already up in the air.
"Um.. guys…" as soon as I said that, someone actually clicked the gun, ready to shoot. I didn't know who, because the adrenaline pumping through my veins are almost blinding me. They wouldn't shoot me in this guy's body right? It's his pretty face they would be scarring.
"Look.. let's not take rash decisions. He didn't even say what agency.. it could be an ice disposal agency for God's sake." I said, laughing nervously at the end. But it didn't look like they're backing off.
"Guys.. please don't shoot her. It's my fault and it's the body of your friend, he'll get hurt too.. please…She doesn't know anything.
As soon as Jison said that, the three guns pointing towards me backed up. One was the Kookie guy, who practically like an hour was yelling at me for spreading cooties.. oh the duality. Second one was the tall and handsome Pacific ocean shoulders.. Gin or something… he acted all mushy with me like an hour ago too.. and the other one was the one with the sunshine smile who called me out for looking ugly today, and goes around saying he's everyone's hope.. hope my ass.
"Phew." They still had their guns pointed at Jison who was all red like a tomato. This guy.. he deserves it probably. Why did he have to say that?
"What agency do you work for?" "The KCI or FBI or CIA or LAUA or KUA or AAUA or is it something else?" The translator guy went on listing out some agencies and it sounded like he was rapping the names?
We worked for the LAUA, Los Angeles Undercover Agency, one of the units under the NAUA, North American Undercover Agency which is a specialized investigation unit under the CIA, which has been granted rights to capture or kill assailants and in general criminals, killers. Joon must have guessed this since I already told him I was from Los Angeles?
Our speciality is to mingle with underground mafias and provide information about their every moves to the LAUA and then finally bringing down the group by capturing or killing the mafia boss..
Wait a minute.. if Jison is here, does that mean these guys are the highly mysterious Korean underground mafia project he said he was involved in? But aren't they some sort of singers?
"Guys.. I'll tell you something, we work for the LAUA and yes, I was sent here to spy on you. I'm UA number 101, and they sent me with the sole purpose of bringing you guys down." Jison said this in a flow, with no fear. Usually when caught, agents bite down on the cyanide tablet at their wisdom teeth, but I was secretly wishing he won't bite down on it. I wasn't ready to lose my only friend. Not that I care about him or anything.. pfft no.
Okay that proves it. So these guys are gangsters.
As soon as he said this, all six guns pointed at him clicked, ready to shoot him any moment.
"But lemme finish. I came here on their orders and then I found about the work you do. You guys don't kill good people, but only kill the ones who are rotten and you also help return the money they stole in circulation by providing for the poor. So you guys are like Robin Hood." He laughed at the end, trying to lift up the atmosphere.
Not funny Jison. Not funny at all. Seriously bad timing. He's in some seriously hot soup right now. But what does this have to do with me?
"Look. So I actually turned to your side, and then jungkook treated me like his own.. I came to know a lot about you all.. and I'm not turning back to the LAUA. I just couldn't resign, cause that meant they would kill me and dispose me off. Definitely."
I peeked behind me to see Joon signalling them. One by one, the guns went down.
But I couldn't digest one thing. Jison was a traitor to LAUA? But why? Why would he let go of the side of Justice to gang up with some lowlife gangsters? But the way he talks about them, he doesn't think of them that way.
"Jison.."
"I know Olivia. I know what you are thinking. But you will soon know that all you think about LAUA being the law, justice and all? I'll prove it all wrong to you. Please do believe me."
"Whatever. But tell me, does this have anything to do with the soul interchange?"
"Um yeah.. kinda… so guys.. remember what I told you about the LAUA being onto your track and trying to hack into your systems? They have implanted some software into the central control which helps them hack into your computers. I told you that I got information about this to cover my tracks and you did not believe me." Jison let out a heavy breath he was holding in.
"You guys told me that no one could hack into the computers when your tech genius Suga hyung was in control right? But I wanted to be sure, ends up, the software was installed by someone on the inside. Somebody else in your gang is working for the LAUA. And only someone from LAUA with an agent ID card could disable the software and stop the leak of data."
"Thats why I did this." He said, pointing to me. Wait what? Why is he pointing to me?
"What the hell are you saying Jison? How could you possibly do this?"
"Remember when I turned up at your place with two bottles of wine and a cupcape yesterday morning at 12:00 am to celebrate your birthday?"
"Yeah?"
"I just came back to LA then. From Korea. I met some crazy woman here, who claimed that she would help me with what was in my mind right then. She was mysterious and I think she was a sorceress. She gave me a potion and told me that I could switch souls with it if I wished."
"Haha.. that's the most funniest joke I've ever heard. You want me to believe that dumbass? A SORCERESS GAVE YOU A POTION? How funny."
Everyone standing there gave me weird looks, so I pursed my lips.
"Listen. I would have laughed I your face too. Heck I laughed in that woman's face that night. But she just disappeared.. into thin air. After giving me the potion."
"What did you do then?"
"I thought why not try this? And I went to Suga hyung's room and got in using Jungkook's entry pass." I turned around to look at him and he was searching for his pass in his pockets. Joon just sighed at him and Jison threw him the pass, which he caught with a growl."Sorry for that man. Then I mixed half of the potion in his water bottle and left the place."
"And then..?"
"I caught the last flight to LA and came to your home. I woke you up and lit a candle on that cupcake remember? Then I poured two cups of wine and told you I would be right back? Remember all that?"
"Yeah..?" I said in a I-still-dont-get-it kind of tone.
"You are pretty dumb. Sigh. I had poured the potion in my glass of wine, which you drank. I got afraid and I couldn't tell you the truth cause you would laugh in my face. Thats why I left abruptly. To get to Korea and stop Suga hyung from drinking that. I couldn't tell anyone.. that was the problem."
"Wait wait.. go again?" As soon as I said that, Jison sighed, but repeated anyway.
"I poured the potion in a glass of wine and you.."
Back to present time:
"YOU DID WHAT??!!!"
I yelled out loud for the whole world to hear probably. I swear if I had something sharp in my hand, it would have been inside this guy's guts. How dare he? How stupid can someone be to do this?
"Look look.. it was just an accident. It was kinda your mistake too Oli.. you shouldn't have drank that!!"
"Oh now you are blaming me? Right after you told me we should deal it like adults? Oh how mature of you Jison!!"
I suddenly felt all my systems wanting to shut down.. this was too much to take. I slumped down on the couch and sneaked a look at the guys standing behind me.
"Idiot idiot!! So my birthday wish had nothing to do with this?"
"Yes it did. Olivia, look. There was a time difference between you guys right? LA and Korea? I gained time while travelling to LA. When you drank that wine, Suga hyung had took a sip from that bottle before they had cut the cake. After that, they brought the cake to his room and he made a wish. You probably ate the cupcake and made the wish too right? Thats why you're here right now."
"Goodness.. how stupid could you be?"
"Okay enough catching up. What about the software now?"
"I can disable it now since you already know I work for the LAUA."
"I'm not sure if I can let you in on anything as yet. I'll ask Bang PD-nim before that." Joon sighed.
"Wait wait.. the guy at the conference… that clueless looking guy was in on this too?"
"Haha.. no honey. He's not in on this. He's the very boss of this Mafia. He's our idol manager by the day. Music is our passion and we ended up here by the music and dance auditions. We are normal people and celebrities by the day. We forget all about the Mafia. But by night, we rule the underworld." He said with a smirk on his face.
"Yeah and that's why they're always super tired. Their fans think they work too hard for providing them with songs and contents.. which they do too, but this is the main reason." Jison told me. Right now, everyone around me was telling things and I felt stupid. So I decided to change the topic.
"So guys.. the camera? Maybe I could go back to my body and act like this all never happened?"
"Here you go." Jin said, as he handed over the camera to me.
I hit play, and saw that it was a personal camera, focusing on me.. I looked over at the conference table and saw that there were many cameras focusing on each person. As an agent, I felt disappointed with myself. How could I not notice all that?
The videos began playing and I skipped some parts and ended up near the one I started yawning.. shit.
I was reciting some kind of poem while in a trance. Should write this down.. should decipher it.
