“Any more thoughts on that plan? We’re running out of floors, Byul”~Solar said as she and Byul searched the third floor for any civilians.

“Well, I thought backup would be here by now. Guess we just keep moving up.”~Moonbyul said unsurely 

“Maybe there’s another option. The stariway leads through the hear of the building. We just have to make it to the fourth floor. There’s an access door to where the hostages are, there that’ll take us up to where these guys are.”~Solar said as she scanned the buildings structure, giving her a detailed layout of the entire bank.

“See? Told you we’d come up with a plan. Hey. What’s with the eyes? You got something to tell me?”~Moonbyul asked noticing Solar’s eyes glow green

“Since the signals are now being jammed, I am receiving a nearby emergency call.”~Solar stated as her eyes now flashed green rapidly

“Answer the call. We might get some information.”~Moonbyul said continuing her search through the hallways. Solar nodded as she put her finger up to her ear. Her eyes stopped flashing green as a call was directly connected to her.

“Hello. I am Officer Solar. I’m an automated police officer”~Solar answers in a calm and collected voice

“Hello?..... Police”~A woman answered, sounds of crying and whimpering could be heard in the background

“Please remain calm.”~Solar said trying to calm the woman down.

“I’m... I’m trapped with gunmen. Please help.”~the woman muttered as yelling could be heard in the background

“Everything’s all right. Just take a breath. What is your name?”~Solar asked trying to asses the situation. Moonbyul tapped her on the shoulder to get her attention.

“Connect me”~Moonbyul said tapping on her earpiece. Solar’s eyes glowed green for a moment before connecting Byul’s earpiece into the call.

“My name is Jennie, Jennie Kim”~Jennie said nervously

“Ok Jennie. What can you tell me about the gunmen?”~Solar asked, starting to leave the third floor

“I don’t know, They have my girlfriend, and others.”~Jennie said cowering

“Listen, Jennie, I am Detective Moonbyul. Me and Solar are in the building. I need to ask you a few questions, but first I need to know— are you safe? Are you out of harm’s way?”~Moonbyul asked as she and Solar started up the stairs again.

“I think so. For now. I’m on the fifth floor. I’m in the utility closet.....AAAAH”~Jennie said as a scream echoed through the building 

“Next Phase.”~Chaeyoung said as she looked at Dahyun.

“You, on your knees. On your knees!”~Dahyun said grabbing one of the women hostages

“Oh, no, no! Oh, God.”~The woman screamed as Dahyun dragged her by the hair to the center of the room. She threw the woman to the floor making her cry out in pain. Dahyun ran a finger down the side of her gun with the same expression most women reserve for a lover. A nearby window was opened by JB, in seconds she had her poker face locked in place and the weapon holstered. She walked over and gazed down out the window seeing hundreds of policemen and women, not one of them had a outfit as nice as hers, or shoes for that matter, she thought to herself. Running one hand over her already perfect hair and pressing her lips together, she went to and stood right behind the hostage she had, slowly prodding her more and more towards the window. Dahyun’s face mirrored the grim expressions she saw, but her insides were on fire. She had been denied her own bloodlust earlier but now was her time to shine. Dahyun was a psychopath, self diagnosed, and a perfect monster. She tossed the woman towards the window as she began crying.

“Sit on the windowsill, now!”~Dahyun demanded as the woman continued to cry. She followed orders and did as she was told. Dahyun walked up behind her taking out her gun, placing it agains the temple of her head.

“Goodbye”~Dahyun said pulling the trigger. The gunshot rang through the air like a crack of thunder. The woman fell from the fifth floor window, dead before she hit the ground. All the police hurried around in a frenzy as Dahyun giggled to herself.

“Jennie?! Jennie, what’s happening?”~Moonbyul urgently asked, hearing the gunshot

“Oh God, They shot her. Our manager’s dead.”~Jennie said making Moonbyul wince in anger. Back down on the ground floor, many officers are investigating the scene.

“Oh my God. We got a body!”~Officer Sin B called out as Hwasa cursed under her breath

“Those b*stards. What do they want? Hyo, initiate hostage protocol.”~Hwasa commanded as every officer scrambled

“Send them the comm. Send them the comm now!”~Hwasa yells at the many synths around her. They prepare what looks to be a small vehicle as a few officers run around retrieving the dead body. The small helicopter like vehicle is assembled, the controls being given to Detective Bora.

“Get that drone in the air. We’ve got to start negotiating.”~Hwasa said as Wheein nodded. The drone started to take flight, ascending past the 4 floors of the building stopping at the window where Dahyun executed the poor woman. The drone landed at the window as JB and Mark took aim at it

“Comm’s here.”~Dahyun called over to Chaeyoung. She pushed her way past Dahyun, walking up to the drone. She dragged Jisoo with her, now bound by her hands

“Well well well, who am I talking to?”~Chae said with confidence scaring the officers that can hear the conversation.

“I am Commissioner Hwasa. And you are?”~Hwasa question making Chaeyoung cackle

“Well, I’d tell you, but I don’t want to nullify your efforts. Now that we have your attention, we have some demands.”~Chae said to a sighing Hwasa. Back in the building, on the second floor. Solar senses the signal and connects to it, letting her and Byul hear the conversation.

“I really hate to throw out any more hostages. Let’s get down to nitty gritty, huh?”~Chaeyoung said twirling her hair through her fingers

“What do you want?”~Hwasa said as every officer gathered around her

“First, get your snipers off the roof, and tell those men you have assembled out front to stand down, and keep them away from the building, or hostages will continue to fall from the sky.”~Chaeyoung said as she smacked Jisoo across the face making her cry for all to hear.

“Bravo team, stand down.”~Hwasa ordered as police officers backed away from the building

“All clear.”~Mark said as he checked from the fifth story window.

“Done. What else?”~Hwasa reluctantly blurted out

“We’d like a helicopter on the roof standing by, clear airspace from here to the border, and finally, I’d like that chip from evidence locker 89 delivered to me, please.”~Chaeyoung said hoisting Jisoo back up, throwing her back towards the other hostages

“That’s protected evidence. I’m afraid I cannot do that.”~Hwasa retorted slightly irritating Chaeyoung

“Well, then I suggest you should”~Chaeyoung said coldly. At that moment Hwasa’s phone ringed with a message from Wheein, ‘Facial recognition identified.’ She read the message, finally distinguishing the criminals

“Now, you listen to me, Lil Miss Chaeyoung, if you want me to cooperate with you, I need you to cooperate with me. How many hostages do you have?”~Hwasa said, irritating Chae about how Hwasa said her name

“More than enough to destroy alotta families if they die. You have 40 minutes commissioner”~Chaeyoung said as she kicked the drone away from the window
