Description

Bang Yongguk is renowned throughout the criminal world. He's pulled off more heists, more frauds, spun larger and more complex webs of deceit at the age of 25 than most could say in their entire lives.

Now, some say he's building an army.

The truth is, Bang Yongguk is not building an army. 

He's building a team.

Foreword

Inspired by (what else?) B.A.P's One Shot MV

Hopefully, I'll actually be able to get more than one chapter done of this.
(As of 3/3/13, I have two chapters done and a third in the works, so I might actually be able to finish this)

Updates WILL be extremely sporadic, if at all.

This will most likely be a five-shot, if that word even exists - five chapters, related but in a rather disjointed way, one for each member of BAP (except Yongguk, because he's the leader and the central character, in a sense). It'll also be a prologue to a longer fic that will be more closely related to the actual One Shot MV that I may or may not actually write. It depends a lot on my level of creativity and the feedback I get for this fic.

 

Teaser:

Bang Yongguk has never not completed a job.

If nothing else, that's what he's known for. Of course, that isn't all he's known for - he's a crack shot, an amazing assassin, who doesn't demand exorbitant prices or act like a foolhardy college student. He's feared, too, for having a temper unrivaled by any and for having a hit list that he doesn't ignore. Yongguk hasn't been in the scene for long, but he's already made his mark.

It doesn't make him invincible or perfect at all.

"You need a mechanic or a black market dealer," Jeon Hyosung tells him bluntly. "Your car's too noticeable now. People avoid ones that look like yours, you know, like the way they avoid dark minivans with shaded windows because of Super Junior."

"Or cherry red Corvettes because of you," he adds, and a smile curls around Hyosung's lips.

"Like that," she agrees.

Yongguk shakes his head in annoyance. "Why do I need a mechanic for that?"

"You don't. You just need a new car, but you can't risk your anonymity to do that."

"And why not," Yongguk asks. He tells himself he's not sulking because he's far too badass to sulk.

Hyosung doesn't agree. "Just because I sometimes act like your older sister doesn't mean you get to act like my younger brother, you know," she tells him, and it sounds exactly like she's scolding him for putting mud into her makeup or something.

He doesn't mention it because Hyosung and SECRET are dangerous and, although they're close enough to him that they won't outright kill him, they know how to make life a living hell for him. No connection is too close to break, so he just shuts up and nods like a good little boy. Or criminal.

"You need to get more connections," she continues. "You don't know enough people."

"I know you and you have connections," he says. He's still convinced that he's not sulking.

She glares at him, only half-joking. "My connections are not your connections. I can help you sometimes, you know, but I have my own gang to work for. Find people yourself."
