After you and ZE:A finished eating, you put all the bowls in the tray.

"Let me help you!" Hyungshik said. He picked up the tray and ran into the kitchen.

You smiled and put the spoons and forks on the tray and carried it in.

You set it on the counter and started to wash it.

"Let me help!" Hyungshik shouted and pushed you aside.

"No, it's okay." You kindly said, trying to push him to the side.

"Let her wash it hyung, she's our maid anyways." Dongjun coldly said.

Hyungshik looked at him and said, "Aww. Come on... I was just-"

As if on cue, Junyoung yelled, "GUYS! Let's go! Beast is coming right now!"

Your eyes widened in alarm.

"Stay here. It wouldn't be good if Beast knows you're here." Hyungshik said then ran out after Dongjun.

*I hope they're going to be okay...* You thought worriedly.

=

You paced impatiently in the living room.

*What if they got hurt?* You thought.

While you were busy worrying, ZE:A burst into the house, all of them having wounds.

Your eyes widened in horror.

They all had bloody faces and arms.

Minwoo had to most wounds. His arm was bleeding badly and his face was beaten up.

They set Minwoo on the broken couch.

You quickly ran into the bathroom and pulled the first-aid kit out.

You ran to Minwoo's side.

He was wearing a long sleeve shirt so you had take the shirt off.

You tried to lift his shirt but he groaned in pain.

"Just rip it!" The impatient Dongjun shouted as he banadged himself.

You gulped and tried to rip the shirt open.

"Aish!" Heechul went to help you. He ripped the shirt open in one pull.

You tugged the shirt to make the rip bigger.

You took out some towels and wiped the blood away.

Then you disinfected in and bandaged it.

After you fixed Minwoo up, you looked to see who needed help.

Taehun's back was badly wounded and he had trouble bandaging it.

"Let me help you." You said and went up to Taehun.

"Oppa, can you take off your shirt?" You asked, a little embarrassed.

He took it off and threw it on the floor.

You wiped the blood on his back away and he winced.

You disinfected it and bandaged it.

"All good!" You smiled.

You helped the other guys bandage their wounds.

After it was all done, you went into the kitchen to get some hot tea and some food for them.

You set the food on the table.

"What happened?" You asked, your brows knitted together.

"Those ers used knives." Kevin growled, his glare almost burning through you.

You gulped. "Beast wouldn't do that..."

Dongjun slammed his hand on the table. "What makes you think they wouldn't?" He growled angrily.

"Dongjun..." Hyungshik sat him back down.

"I don't get this girl. She's only known them for a few days. We've known them for years. And they've always been like this." Dongjun hissed.

You felt your heart crash.

When you thought you had found your friend, they turned out to be a violent group of people.

"Sorry..." You mumbled.

"It's not your fault..." Hyungshik comforted you.

=

You finished all your chores and went back home.

Luckily, there were no drunk people or rapists on the way home.

You went up to your room and took a shower.

"It feels good to be back home." You breathed in the air of your home.

Then there was a knock on the door.

"Who could it be?" You said, then went to get the door.

In came three guys dressed in black suits.

You backed up.

"You are?" You looked at them. They didn't look like good people.

"Are you Miss _____?" They asked. You could imagine glares behind their sunglasses.

You nodded, starting to get scared.

"We have something to tell you." They said, looking through your apartment. "Can we talk inside?"

You nodded and led them into your apartment.

"About your parents..." The guy started.

You froze and gripped your cup of water.

"They... well... we found out who killed them..." The man said.

You couldn't believe your ears. You thought your parents died in a car accident.

"H-how?" You stuttered, your voice cracked, tears began to form in your eyes.

"They were killed by a gang." The man said.

You blinked and the tears fell out. Your heart ached when people talked about your parents.

"W-what?" You looked at the man uneasily.

Everything seemed silent.

You could only hear your breathing.

"They were killed by Black Hearts." The man continued.

Black Hearts?

"Who's that?" A chill went down your spine. You didn't have a good feeling about this.

"The gang that... controls Beast, ZE:A, and Teen Top." The man said.

"Controls?" The man nodded at your comment.

"Black Hearts is training these three gangs to become the next best gangs of Korea, maybe even Asia. They make the gangs hate each other and fight each other." The man said, and a small smirk formed on his face.

"But why did Black Hearts kill my parents?"

"Your dad used to be in Black Hearts. He quit because your mom had you and he was deeply in love with your mom. But all members of Black Hearts vowed to never leave the gang until the day they die. But your father broke this vow. To punish him, the gang has been disturbing your dad and eventually killed him." The man got up.

You looked at him with tears in your eyes.

"But Black Hearts isn't going to give up so fast. They're after you. They sent the three gangs to kill you. To slowly torture and make you fade away." The man smirked.

Your heart stopped beating.

*They're going to kill me?*

The other men got up and started to leave.

"Wait! Who are you?!?!?" You shouted. You tried to stop them.

He ignored you and got into his car.

"Wait! Mister!" You shouted and ran out after them.

"Be careful of the people around you. Black Hearts is very powerful. Don't be too nice." Were the last words he said. Then he zoomed off.

The words he said kept replying in your head like a broken record.

Your knees got weak and wobbly.

You fell down.

Tears started forming.

*So they're going after me? What should I do?*

You thought about your parents.

"Never let anything harm you. Protect yourself." Your dad's warnings rang in your head.

Slowly, a hatred look started to carve on your face.

*I have to protect myself. I have to change.*

A smirk slowly formed on your face.

You got up and walked into your house.

You looked at your clothes.

You went up and changed.

You were now wearing black shorts with a tank top.

You undid your ponytail and let your hair go wild.

*I won't let the same thing happen to myself. Don't worry appa, I'll protect myself.*
