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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKLSbm1kGe

"Who am I kidding?" said Zoey as she leaned upon the stair rail. "I’m so tired." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVJiAprEvL

"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?" 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUBjtUWpcB
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyTTSx3Nms
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFlMhmPz96
"She was," I answered. "If you ask me, we can start looking on this floor, or we can split." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6F6gNU67fB
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoX9eCcGoaM
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9huYHSr3v
"I say we stick together," said Seunghoon. "I’ve a feeling taking Johnny down will need some team effort." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgDBfJLMuX
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5dQeO6HH2
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjpGzip4M8
"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." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhETicVb63
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1IuDlHOey
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDNjI5Bj3i
"That’s fine," I said. "I really wish we knew where she could be." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomHuDRAUAo
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh58VUwKRZe
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIvK1hWX5k
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2bQO1wqoe
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExrqbP4sTm
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDY3qlsISiI
"Can it be Johnny?" Zoey asked. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFq51NhfoH
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9lbvN6Ois
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8kPIlUBSz
"I doubt it," Mino whispered who leaned against the wall next to her. "That sounds like a lot of steps." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskWXUUk4Dw
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9HwdJF6ay
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1e9Dijp6O

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Bq7OvYCt0
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTFnuwuGXE
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TLvu6kaXp
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CyJQAsPhN
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSXLwBn4am
"That was close," said Jisoo. "For a moment there, I thought they would come to this floor." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhc9yLWLHJf

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgu6uxBr6n
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCdtxvmpUS
"Maybe you can call her again," Seunghoon suggested. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IS58B1l6R
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHb5Wl47SGd
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7kf2AjKtl
"Even if we do, and Johnny does have her, he'll know we’re coming for him," said Mino. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRvpnUKWnq
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtDUeOZQRY
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZNqk1uxTn
"Are you saying we should look for her the old-fashioned way?" 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83hnlTWBr5
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPH7rLNZFOG
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QDbbdg8kM
"I think we call anyway," said Zoey. "He obviously knows that the only way to draw us out is if he has Lee." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEZRZ5Jmml
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4RM76TzLA
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQ1yZFJPV1
"Or he might call us instead," said Jisoo. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmP4qDB9I1
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnaKuuiz9Y
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0As2SZqAAT
"Well, he would've called first if he wanted to draw us out," I said as I held my phone in my hand. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLsK5ZyFmt
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrd3ecwoIK
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHHMBPMmE2
"So what should we do?" Mino asked. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADfPFmYP9n
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQX3h8cYH6
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Z1vEL0t2n
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." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uc7lz2ZGB
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySUUMTovW3
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZAUBsmHYB
"So you want to catch him off guard?" Jisoo asked. "Will that even work?" 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Vzg4M3Lyr
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9M3W5p69T
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkBINsiUSy

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIva5gd8gfC
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaks215AdXJ
"I like your thinking," said Zoey. "But then that means, we've to work quickly and find them." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYmNFExWeZ
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzMdZzDqHh
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLuPyYMS9L
"Let's start here, then," said Seunghoon. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GHgxZXmrW
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiUfufo6eO
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97aghGVKeL
"What’s on this floor anyway?" I couldn't help but ask as I felt like the place is pretty much empty. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE94iTElD9h
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzZQpLLecC
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVa7l36eik
"There are rooms that were once used for practice till they moved them downstairs. They plan to renovate and make offices here," said Mino. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpZ577XkYY
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fMpO9ppJ4
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkCsqUwxvs
"Is this the only floor where renovations are taking place?" I stood in the middle of the hall to take a good look beyond. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5NurkEx6q
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSYeReDbQY
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9qAUkxcLJ

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xeEbdRGKM
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiJgbU6ixB
"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." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMwFMo47LO
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhQQ05v9x7
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0ghlzh5LP
"Well, the bodyguards should’ve thought of that before bypassing this floor," said Zoey. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmVnKlQX4t
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5V9JM70uxD
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPGWDWbeIw
"Maybe they did, and they couldn’t find anything to convince them that someone could be hiding here," said Jisoo. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqp4b2BKmB
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VvnFbYW4m
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgtEvDVM1i
"Well, let's see if we can find something," said Seunghoon. "But the rooms should be empty." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKU3e31f5t
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiP2JoUohBf
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDR5e46LNVJ
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEX0L7RTSOM
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0B9ftz2qo
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQIHJWWbLC
"Hey, are you okay?" he asked. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcP5bFGpLyi
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSIvqc2y4g
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdiLYSFKEYJ
"Everyone, hide," I said quietly. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhPQYCT9HH
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFX5Fzn7Xw
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnx0MpsOoKA
"What? Why?" Zoey asked, turning to look at me. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlp8ZikpK0k
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdhHBdu0wU
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwudDD4byzn
"Someone’s coming," I answered. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXv5fCbGr5k
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8SHZeJ7em
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlISKCfp0V
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZTdlLunow
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgOJLXf69P
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgky0TBoyR
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmq2DRsA9T
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPfOxBLpHB
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxyZlm0pUt
"Can we turn on the lights?" Jisoo asked in a whisper. "It’s dark in here." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOrybFpA8R
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3q9hP7pKCb
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6bynM0K2Y
"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." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVBQMRot2E
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKDD7M4IgL
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjSjNlqmal
"Ssh," said Mino. "Do you hear that? The person is coming." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CehLuHLFk
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFslbsqdwk
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzsFyA6J0U
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdiF815VWd
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMymdEeU9uX
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrkOnYSD6K
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbURx3CGA0c
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXmVq8wRFN
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CjfXo86Os
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZ5EcFxL1J
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JgmtxQJt1
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLrH4bROS7

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRCZZyDfPi
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNDwtnguax
"Goodness, Seunghoon get back here!" Zoey whispered to him. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrc1iGJo2bK
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ngv34H0iG
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sZlpNSvOe

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKe7ndZH0Mw
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdkuc9Kdro
"Don’t worry, guys, it’s GD," Seunghoon came back into the room to address us. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimNTdlQUaf
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBLDuB2RCG
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCJfa9txbp

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBmzOjxHMG
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9dX3aVlxl
"Oh, oppa," said Jennie stepping out of the room to join Seunghoon in the hall. "How did you find yourself here?" 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSaGJMiiUC
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEbZUUpeWh
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Z8NcTNMXz
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNuobs5KkS
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkSTyREGhB
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk58HEVSZ3Y
"What are you all doing here?" GD asked. "Aren’t you supposed to be recording in the studio?" 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJQm7sLG5n
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAWcTrECqb
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngWXIURl8U
"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." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ja00JeAjm
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5g9OlgxD5
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJyiCoCXg3
"Oh, that’s good to hear. But I thought you were kept under guard." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkpP4lTvwM
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rWmgZiqKG
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXzO3Zb5l9

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqVj3dJenW
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQTyr0mbRX
"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." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzAt6aCe1I
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpuSuEXGIC
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07J8jzr7sI
"That’s not good," said GD. "I also came up here to try and find him." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ827Ziqcojo
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34wYhoBWNf
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvszrcCEXU
"Really?" Zoey asked, raising an eyebrow. "How can we be so sure that you're looking for him?" 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmQutqOnhq
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLaLPZy40J
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMU1MCFdjW
G-Dragon and so did the rest of us turn to look at her, wondering why she could ask such a question. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqjV911dgQ
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIw0CP66KN
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aNtYuVz67
"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?" 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ucz0JfxNw
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yKkbXC6Ec
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vpCitoUo8
"And why would I do that?" GD asked, not believing the words coming out of Zoey’s mouth. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCq69Di3WS
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG46Jx3lcJ0
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCinUeGs1BH

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjLusAYpWJ
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvK85oxeOu
"Yeah, right. We warned you about him, but you didn’t listen to us, did you?" 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZJD42xkH6
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfZP2gXQx4
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSxNTSmlDy
"Zoey, enough," I intervened. "Telling him that we told him so right now isn’t going to help us find Lee." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPmsDIVHmN

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhev25rJE9
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3tslTtO5l
"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." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsitP1clhPP
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zYgkfcC3R
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSjo43r4zz
"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." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNbimgNNDk
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmK4Y9d5TG
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfBHjXI9id
"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." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaNxBtzdPw
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3L9tOOyPIT
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1C4gO4tWbY
"Won’t that also get you arrested?" Jisoo asked. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDpnSxwEf6
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRfWBYFK2S
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9W2pBLj1HK

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajf7TE8sVM
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZRplDC9wT

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjxTsA0z34
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Hk5dIpBNu
"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." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdRQBmtRws
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzPxBFP19G
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZGSHwAZtr

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHAdj1X3a7
"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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZvSdTUywy
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfnTCKbaWL
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHniON7TKC

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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AwHziIpOT
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dCOdagHky
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzZa9BFIng
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgLhqAy36l

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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbo2020nm1

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqc4Wl6Cmij
"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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYYxAa9koH

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9k6YQc337a
"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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFQQsiSXYz

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOX7AzHoGf
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdnPvcdZ2R
The box did move. My eyes widened, and I turn to look at GD, whose mouth is agape. He saw it too. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLNxjfTDlT

Before I could go any further, I felt G-Dragon take hold of my hand. I stop and turn to look at him. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6j7ZaOurub

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwtB2srveP
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrp6ZomoRx

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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uC34lflAg

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDonxJP0ed
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRl9FWP1zM

"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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxu0hRyMSaE

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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgGGDtTCFE

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtVMwcFVMx
"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." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuU08ZAiQsx

"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." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGGkf1LjXg

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mjqMz01wV
"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." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6e78HpY3L2

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaKgM6dIcX
"He shouldn’t know that we’re out here looking for him." I answered. "GD, quick, answer it." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyhEqXyzRF

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliaYME5SEf
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." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRuRCADKCl
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ajGGWOTSP

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoD2hEMAIj
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaC8oMkwFB
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdKR0z31BH
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKw1BMAX26b
"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." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lPf0jsfIX

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyx5qkRve0
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWubTmTNPZ3

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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpagprgvh5Z
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vhUkpbf3X
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uRQDMuODX

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMmZscPNif
"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." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9542V8XYz
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYGZhpHweP
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcywnFtpZiO

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIWNG9UuWR
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDrJOrA46I

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfi2ZfUglNn
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmv8kyuOSl

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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPV5FkwzoG
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJF2qr7feM
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCodCRpHbm9

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6REXZfuuu
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEd4K6RNc9
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGfNOVubjk
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqX09dq0JD
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsqyHSG0Nh

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡld15p9bvwi
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHwGTphrU0
Jisoo looked at Zoey, dumbfounded. I turned to look at Mino and GD who like me, didn’t seem the least bit surprised. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZT25TC2Wk

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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0N27FljCJ
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkD9yEMv2aJ
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyB3O5KqWV
We are now in the basement and before Zoey could open the door. GD stepped forward. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKV5WyZzH1H
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDSfm6dlTO
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YO6IZkGNU

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBNBghD4oB
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxUojUUK2K
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8gyy17yVX

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfCmBwpjzX
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTekR3SiSJ
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFe2tEhBlr

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqH3hvH9SV
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ10SpSGbZJ

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? 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQPHPkcmUF
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVydX3U1zB

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8v1E3myAea

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhPkMPIbwU
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjfG5WP4LZ

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPKce4zW3C
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIm56JTxdzJ

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiICMAlhG35
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINkInRSNMp

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoVvBCORGU
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNM3TD9HkY
"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." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUu06V37aq
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhtSvy25Tz
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJJZ570EFS

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhFswOVcIe
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoo8NEZyMb
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsM6HoTgjF8
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9s3AXadwp

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3sb3kEyHz
"Okay, they’re almost gone," said Mino as he slowly opened the door fully. "The basement storeroom is on our left. Follow me quietly." 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKx8G1mXZZe
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwZUMBn01G
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnS6K66PNz
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdRH7BoIyl
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijAWK9H8mV
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPlp5q9u35

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbUILDl2gk
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssdDAz7hCe

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzm7OH4mTx3

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ssCeVYIGZ

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7v6ioOwkTO
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjAACok6PG

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTM3fMgarJ
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdq2p9keec

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8uwnbdLqJ
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPSjbzgmrU
With Sam helping her up, but careful enough not to stand upright, she and Jisoo started to make their way to the others. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeKWxTNFhh
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXsHJA8pqt
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzc0AC6E4LS
"I think I’ll go check it out," said Johnny as he fully turned around to make his way back. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvZL8xw6Oh
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdp4vmA6YTy
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZuXCtONX2

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FuWpZmqVB
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMTCfbimsi
"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?" 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrvAAEp9qY
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKhyEo3jpm
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqNLL8WGiG

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksSutet5uk
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1D6U4vWkjJ
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXYvr7sCm2
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFEiT03lE1
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhidYjhqzlw

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKIQFoHNsB
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ859dmW3xGz

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWR3CjYsKb
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MWVZFwHTA
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwM7fbFEAFY
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDpkh2T7ik
474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyaWV9TndN
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. 474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4n2boKTWx

474Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNz287Td1g
