Hey everyone! I think this update is pretty short so I apologize! Hope you guys all enjoy it! ^^

I've been called in to work tomorrow so I might not be able to update so soon. But, I will try to type some of it out.

<3 Okurah

Following the string of events, HypE's car ride back to their dorm was silent. The only sounds heard were from the rain pelting the car and KyungSu's 3DS. President Bae was driving since HypE's so called "Manager," got himself fired. Bae was anything but cheerful at the moment. He wasn't so much what you called angry anymore, he was more so distraught.

HypE needed a new manager, that was easy to see. This would be a difficult feat however. Not only was the President now weary of people working for his brother, he had a young group who have been betrayed by someone they've come to trust. Surely, it upset them more than they were letting on.

Their unusual silence told him exactly how they felt. Usually they'd be arguing, teasing, and nagging each other.

He was unsure of what to do from here. Everything had been planned out already, he wasn't counting on something like this to happen. Not again at least.

If he found them a new Manager, would they grow to be able to trust them? He wasn't even sure if he himself would be able to trust anyone he hired.

"Bae-Appa?" His thoughts halt at the sound of the Aegyo Prince's broken voice. Glancing back at KyungSu in the rear view mirror, he sees the male maknae playing his portable game. Instantly the small entertainment system brought on an idea to Bae. Not thinking twice about his decision Bae smiled. Once they got back to the building, he decided he had a very important call to make.

"We've passed the dorm." MinJee states boredly breaking Bae's thoughts once again. No one was surprised that the so called CEO passed his own business. It was very Bae - like. Hearing MinJee, Bae face-palms himself before pulling a U-Turn.

Once the members and himself were out of the van he watched the seven walk away from him. He couldn't help but notice their sagged shoulders and slowed steps. He truly did hope that a nights rest would cheer them up, even if it was just a bit.

"Don't worry HypE. I've still got one more thing up my sleeve." Bae says more to himself than anyone else. Smiling softly he brings out his cell and initiates his plan as he types in a familiar number.

(HQ Section!)

The door to HQ's dorm is slammed open as the angry leader makes his way in, leaving s behind.

"How dare they use us like that!" MinKi screeches as he makes his way into the dorm as well. He has been voicing everyone's exact thoughts since they've exited their President's office. Hearing what their President had shared with them about his brother seemed to provoke HQ. Another slam is heard, signalling that their leader has made his way into the boys' room. Probably to go and squeeze his pillow to death.

The rest of the members make their way in as well, but much quieter than the prior two.

"Yah! If I ever see that HypE group, I have more than a few words for them." ChaeC announces to her Unnies and Ma Roo. She shoots her dangerous gaze towards them, before sharply walking off to the room shared with the other two girls. This left only HyunJi, DD, and Ma Roo standing in the living room.

"I... don't understand." HyunJi states, sounding more disappointed than angry. Ma Roo spots his kitty (which is hated by most of the members!) and leaves the group silently to love him.

"Ucha," DD states using the younger girl's nickname, "I know it's upsetting, but think of the bright side." DD says showing her motherly side. HyunJi glances at her with eyes filled with despair.

"Is there a bright side to being used as some sort of promotion for another group?" HyunJi blurts out causing the usually quiet Umma of HQ to flinch at the abrupt truth. "We were never going to be our own group. Don't you see? We were only meant to be an opening act... Never the main event." She finishes, her words sent Umma DD into a slightly confused state.

"No." DD states. HyunJi raises an eyebrow.

"No?" She asks.

"Don't you see?" She starts off with a shake of her head, "This is our chance to prove RisEntertainment wrong! We'll show them." She explains with a smile. HyunJi smiles softly at DD's attempt to cheer her up. With a pat on the head she heads to the room like ChaeC.

Once standing alone, DD sighs and messes her hair a bit in frustration. She goes towards the couch and plops herself down next to Ma Roo who was contempt with petting his kitty. The movement of the couch catches his attention.He pulls out his earphones, which always seemed to be in his ears, and turned his attention to the slightly dappened girl next to him.

"Ma Roo?" DD hesitates looking at the boy next to her. When she glances at him, she's surprised to see him already staring at her patiently.

"What's wrong Berry-Head?" He asks lightly giving her his absolute attention. His kitty Don-Don became agitated and tried to gain his owner's attention once again. DD couldn't help but giggle lightly at Ma Roo's silly nickname for her.

"Aren't... You upset?" She asks hesitantly. She knew the males in HQ were known for their "fiery" tempers... Except for MinKi. He was more of a drama queen, she knew once he bought something new he'd calm down. The boy in front of her however, was known to have a bit of a temper at times.

Ma Roo tilts his head slightly in response to the question, before smirking slightly. Don-Don, tired of not getting his owner's attention, hops off of his lap and settled next to his feet.

"Are you upset?" Ma Roo shoots back. The red head shakes her head stubbornly. Ma Roo smiles softly as he recognizes the doubtful look in DD's eyes. He knew she was upset. Everyone was upset. She just didn't want to show it.

"Listen hot-head." Ma Roo states causing DD to once again giggle at the nickname given. "Don't feel bad. Everyone is a bit upset right now, whether it be angry or sad. Truthfully, so am I." DD stares at the older male surprised. She didn't normally have any conversations with the normally distant boy.

"You don't seem too upset." She states interrupting Ma Roo. When she is glared at however, she quickly shuts up.

"Because... Well... I'm looking at it differently." Ma Roo replies slowly. When he recieves a confused look he carries on.

"See, now it's a competition. I refuse to let them out shine us now. I know we have a lot to work on, so there's no time to sit around and mope. What is that going to do for us. Nothing. I'm a very competitive person Chaerin. So are we as a group. We can't let them win." As he finishes his sentence, he stands up and grabs Don-Don before heading towards his room. DD stares at him until he stops and turns around to look at her once again.

"Besides, it not the end of us. It's only the beginning." He says with a smile. Mumbling a night he continues towards his room.

DD sits silently going over what Ma Roo just said, it slowly brought a smile on her face. He was right! Her thoughts were quickly interrupted by shouts coming from the boys' room.

"Ma Roo! Get that damned cat out of here! You know he isn't allowed in here." The voice sounded like JinSun's. DD laughs as she could hear the door open and close followed by, "," said in plain English.

When Ma Roo enters the living room once again, he has a sheepish smile on his face. His kitty, Don-Don, was in his grasp.

"Are you sleeping on the couch once again?" DD asks knowingly. When she recieves a guilty nod from Ma Roo, she giggles before standing up and letting him have the couch.

"Night Ma Roo." She whispers as she heads towards her room.

(Back to HypE!)

Meanwhile, HypE enters their dorm. MinJee instantly makes her way to her room and locks herself in. Jae Hyun excuses himself out once again to take a "smoking" break. Haeyun heads towards the bathroom to take a shower and freshen up. JaKyung, once entering the dorm, kicks her shoes off, ties her hair up in a bun, and proceeds to collapse on the couch in a sleepy heap. KyungSu goes to sit in front of the tv to continue to try and drown his sorrow away in video games, but is stopped.

"Enough, KyungSu!" HaNi shouts, scolding the slightly older boy. KyungSu stares at her with big eyes, frightened at the angry maknae. The Umma of the group watches the two youngest carefully.

"Stop drowning out your feelings by playing video games! It isn't healthy." HaNi continues to shout, causing KyungSu to drop his game system which is now switched off.

"Well, I don't want to just sit here and be sad HaNi." KyungSu states in an empty voice. Aerin decided to step in before things got tense.

"Stop it you two." The two youngest quickly look to her lost. Aerin found it quite cute. It reminded her of two little puppies.

"Umma, I'm hungry." KyungSu announces, using his aegyo to quickly avoid the scolding he could tell him and HaNi would be recieving from the Umma. Aerin's demeanor quickly melted and she smiled at the two, patting both of their heads and heading towards the kitchen. A sigh is shared between the two maknae's as they high five.

As they sat at the table waiting to be served, HaNi decided to voice her thoughts.

"Why did Manager KwangSu betray us?" KyungSu states before HaNi could speak. The name brings a hiss to HaNi's lips.

"That man doesn't deserve the title Manager!" HaNi barks out showing her "evil" side. This quickly brought Aerin to reprimand her for her lack of manners.

"I'm not sure." Aerin asks as she seems to faze out for a bit.

"What's for dinner, Jagi?" A voice calls out from the door way leading out of the kitchen and into the main room. Aerin quickly comes back to reality, glancing over to see Jae Hyun leant against the door frame. Realizing what was said, she blushes slightly. This causes the two youngest to begin to giggle. When Jae doesn't get an answer, he walks up behind her and peeks over her shoulder to see for himself.

"Looks good." He says as he chuckles when he see's her cheeks darken. Aerin pouts before slapping Jae's arm lightly, causing him to laugh.

"Jae!" She scolds but couldn't help but melt at his charming smile he was giving her. She couldn't help it. She was such a hopeless romantic.

"No, you should call your husband yeobo~" He says causing Aerin's face to be set aflame. The youngest two gross out before quickly scattering to obtain the other members.

KyungSu comes back with a darkly dressed Haeyun. Aerin knew her brother's attire represented his mood. This only brought a frown to her face.

When HaNi come's back with only a barefoot and plain faced JaKyung, she receives a questioning glare from Aerin.

"Where's MinJee?" Jae asks as he and the others sit on the table preparing to eat. HaNi panics slightly before thinking of a quick lie to tell.

"MinJee-Noona, she isn't feeling very good so... I'm going to take some food to her!" HaNi announces while smiling brightly. She didn't want to tell them that when she went to knock on the door to the room containing MinJee, she heard quiet sobs. So she lied.

"Oh! Good maknae! Here I'll make her a plate!" Aerin quickly states, shebegns to prepare a plate for MinJee before serving anyone else. This causes a groan to exit each hungry mouth already at the table. Once the plate was given to HaNi she quickly made her way back to the room. Putting her ear against the door, she hears the slight sobbing greet her once again. She knew her Noona was very stressed.

Not wanting to bother her, she began to write a note. Dear MinJee-Noona, I'm leaving your food outside the door since I didn't want to bother you. I hope you feel better soon. Love, your annoying maknae. Content with the letter HaNi slips the note under the door and places the plate on the floor. She then skips off to eat dinner with the others. Not much later did a puffy-eyed MinJee stick her head out and gratefully grab the food. She would never admit it, but she really did like the maknae. HaNi reminded her A LOT of her annoying younger sister at home. Even if MinJee's sister was a spoiled brat.

Once everyone was done eating, they made their way off to bed. However, JaKyung and HaNi were stuck sleeping on the couch since MinJee was still held up in their shared room.

Later on in the night, MinJee made her way out into the living room and found her two sleeping roommates. She carefully picked HaNi up before kicking JaKyung slightly to wake her. JaKyung glared at the older female before walking to the room scowling and silently rubbing her now bruised rib cage. A snickering MJ followed behind with a slightly snoring HaNi in tow.

Okay~ So how did everyone like it? Thank you to those of you who answered the questions! ^^

Well, yeah~ I know she kind of got out of character. But, truthfully I made all of HypE slightly out of character for this update. It just they all are such happy, strong people... But, honestly? I don't think they would be after such an event!! So I had to make them out of character T^T

I KNEW you would enjoy that small segment with Jae Hyun ^^ I love that song as well!! I could fall asleep to that!

Yepp! As you can see Bae-Appa's got an idea XD Hopefully it's fool proof >~<

Thank you!! I was hoping I could get the two groups to seem COMPLETELY different!! I'm so glad you can see it!!!! :D Though HQ is pretty difficult to write for... All of their character contradict with each other ><

@iShiina

I know!! They're LITERALLY related XD Well let's just say... It runs in the family XD I'm glad you enjoyed the way I portrayed you character! I was worried I would get him wrong. I'm letting you know that I will eventualy get better at writing for your character the more I write for him!! ^^ So no worries!

@BloodyRavens

I LOVE YOUR LONG COMMENTS!! I love any long comments in general :3 They make me feel special ^^

Yeah, I'm glad people can see the way I'm portraying certain characters!! XD I was worried no one would catch anything O.O Yeah, Jae Hyun is a gentlemen a ladies man! He knows how to treat a lady XD

Ah~ Ma Roo and MinKi!! Yes, yes! They are the KyungSu and Haeyun of HQ. SEE I KNEW DON-DON WAS A CUTE NICKNAME. *sigh* Too bad he hates it >///< Yes, I agree!! MinKi and Haeyun would get along greatly. They have A LOT in common!! Including ideal types >___> If you know what I mean ^__~

@maggie-scole

Yesh!! I caught you by surprise!! I was hoping to do that XD A Kelpie!! The females of HQ seem to like being associated with water ^^ HyunJi a Kelpie and one of the others a Siren!! :D Nothing wrong with that though ^^V That's actually very interesting. I'm thankful you put a description with it as well since I haven't heard of one before!

@flyerstation

Hehehe, hello ~saeng!!! Long time no hear from ^^ You're a fiesty dongsaeng XD I know!! Thank you for waiting on me for so long!! I am forever grateful.

I know it's sad and yes I am COMPLETELY a YG fan :P I'm glad you like the maknae duo!! Aren't you happy HaNi is still here XD

The debut song was the same as before ^^ If you can still remember it XD

HypE is suppose to be sort of like... It's hard to explain. Hype in general means like a crowd pleaser. It gets people excited! Get their blood pumping!! Also HypE kind of mean Hy as in High, and the capital "E" stands for Energy. So High Energy... I don't know about the P though XD

They shall debut! I promise ^^

@RoseRobinson4994

THOSE ARE MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE! I also noticed that HaNi likes lollipops! What a coincidence :D I have two in my room right not! But I use them as decoration so I can't eat them -_____-.

I'm glad that it caught you by surprise >:D Evil Manager!!! I know... I felt bad for writing it XD Everyone in HypE was very out of character since the members are all normally very happy.

I'm glad you enjoy HQ sections even if they are your enemies! Don't worry! I even get confused with their names!! Did you know there are TWO Chaerin's in the group >////< I have to call them by their nicknames DD and ChaeC or else EVERYONE would be confused XDDD

Thank you for your long comments!! They make me want to write LOTS more <(^~^<)
