"Omona, Kibum hyung, is that really you?" Taemin breathed, his eyes clearly reflecting the shock he was experiencing at seeing the face of  
one of his closest hyungs in such a place. 
   Minho stepped up casually. "Hyung...you have got a lot of explaining to do." He showed his famous charismatic glare. 
   Kibum lifted his head slowly, and gazed solemnly at each of them. Although his eyes were serious, the rest of his face seemed to be  
relaxed and almost glad that he was caught.
   "I mean no harm to you guys," he smirked, his famous smirk that had already melted the hearts of many girls.
   Key wrapped his own arm tighter around Kibum's left arm, making him cry out in surprise.
   "How dare you burden the perfect name of Kim Kibum?" he growled viciously.
   Onew opened his mouth. "But he just said he didn't do anything...." Key turned his fierce glare towards Onew, making him turn away and  
shut up immediately.
   "If it's true that you meant no harm to us, why were you running away?" Minho questioned, his voice edgy and reflecting the flaming  
charisma shooting out of his eyes.
   Kibum's eyes made no sign of aversion and remained calm and steady.
   "I thought you guys were bad guys," he answered coolly. He looked down and shrugged casually. "It's normal for bad people to appear in  
places like this at nighttime." Onew cringed as he realized his hyung was acting differently than normal, and his tone was slightly airy and  
coated with mock superiority.
   "Kibum-hyung ah, what were doing here in the first place?" Jonghyun's tone was familiar and casual, showing that he was taking  
the friendly approach in the situation.
   "I'm doing what you're doing now," Kibum answered. "Looking for clues."
   Onew's eyes sharpened more at his hyung's strange way of talking. This isn't like normal...
   "Hyung....why are you talking like that?" he said bluntly, without thinking. The eyes of his fellow members shot up warningly at him,  
frightenened at what the outcome would end up being.
   "Like what?" Kibum responded with a question. His tone had changed again. "I'm just me.....and me would really appreciate if you'd let go  
of my arms."
   "I don't know about this," Onew shot back. Everyone else was staring intently at him by now. "You're acting pretty suspicious..."
   "Acting? What acting?"
   "You're not a very good drama student now, are you?" Jonghyun muttered. He signalled to Key and Onew to pull Kibum to a standing  
position, at which they obliged. "I'll take you to Hyoyeon noona, she'll see right through you." He gestured to Onew and Key to start  
dragging their captive out.
   "Jamkan manyo," Kibum spoke up suddenly. As soon as he caught all their eyes, his own eyes narrowed dangerously. He straightened up
 and locked gazes with all of them. "Shouldn't you be the least bit afraid of taking someone you find guilty to a place where the people who
 were just attacked are kept?" He seemed to smile satisfactorily as he saw the eyes of SHINee members widening simultaneously.
   "W-Why should we be afraid of that?" Onew's voice was shaking. "Didn't you just say you're just you?"
   "You completely believe me?" he retorted masterfully. He smirked again. "If you do, feel free to take me there. I'm starting to miss my  
hyungs." His voice now seemed to be dripping in sarcasm and mockery, losing all the trust that he had left.
   "Forget the hospital," Onew declared immediately after hearing that. "Let's take him straight to the police." They all nodded while  
Kibum was looking strangely relaxed.
   Taemin whipped out his cellphone in order to dial the police. The shocked and distorted expression that he came up as he turned the  
phone on showed that there was no signal in the building.
   "Seriously? How can there be no signal in here?!" he whined.
   "It's a burnt down building after all," Minho responded. He looked at Onew for guidance. "We could just call outside...but he could escape..."
   Onew's head was bent down, as if he was trying to think. He looked up momentarily and then down again at his hyung.
   "We'll take him there ourselves," he said determinedly. "He wouldn't dare jump out of a taxi, and Minho and Taemin can probably  
run there faster than the taxi." They all agreed and went back to dragging their hyung disdainfully through the hallways and towards the  
exit.
   "Aish...I really can't believe you would actually do this me," Kibum laughed gently.
   "You can laugh at this point?" Key yelled fiercely.
   "Yah, no informal language with your hyung," Kibum replied coolly. Key looked as if he was about to punch his namesake in the face. An  
angry glare from Onew seemed to calm him down a little bit.
   "Let's just go," Onew grumbled. They all still seemed to still be very dazed from the fact that their trusting hyung would spy on them.
   At that very moment, a resonating ringtone sounded in the empty hallway, echoing off the walls and ending up louder than it ought to be.
   "Ah, that's mine," Key announced suddenly. He made his move to  
reach into his pocket and grab his vibrating device.
   Onew's eyes widened in horror. "KIBUM-AH, DON'T--!"
   But it was too late. Due to the urgency to receive his phone call, Key had forgotten that he was one of the two people doing their best  
to hold onto their captive hyung. His left arm subconsciously relaxed itself, and Kibum-hyung made no hesitation to grab that opportunity.
   Onew cried out as Kibum yanked his arm out of Onew's firm grip, and lashed out at Key, knocking his cellphone right out of his hand.  
Jonghyun, Minho, and Taemin whirlled around to see what was going on, but before they could stop him, Kibum ran ahead of all of them 
and pulled something out of his vest pocket.
   It was a gun.
   And it was aimed right at Onew's chest.
   "Don't what?" Kibum chuckled lightly at Onew's outburst from before. "Or had you been talking to your useless and ignorant sidekick  
over there?" He nodded his head towards Key's direction, who was looking extremely horrified, but it wasn't obvious as to whether he  
was scared of Kibum or annoyed that his still ringing phone had been knocked of of his hands.
   "Hyung, you wouldn't..." Minho gritted his teeth angrily.
   Kibum shrugged lightly, and made no move to lower the gun.
   Taemin took a tiny and cautious step forward. Fortunately, Kibum didn't change the target of his bullet, and remained focused on Onew  
for the time being.
   "Wae, Kibum hyung?" Taemin quivered. "Why are you doing this all of sudden? You were our trusted hyung, the one we looked up to and  
respected."
   "I had a change of heart," Kibum smirked, holding the gun steadfastly. "Being nice and doing good deeds will only take you so  
far after all....it's only when I met these glorious group of people that I finally realized how to approach this world the right way."
   "So you're going to kill your friends?" Jonghyun declared, his expression extremely frustrated and confused.
   "Aniyo," Kibum replied simply. His eyebrows sharpened and his eyes narrowed cruelly. Onew, Jonghyun, Minho, Key and Taemin all 
stepped backwards at the sudden expression that they'd never seen on their hyung's face ever before.
   "WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO?!" Onew bellowed angrily.
    Kibum winked charismatically and brought the gun up to his eye level, the nozzle now positioned directly at Onew's forehead.
   "I'll tell you when we all end up in hell," he whispered. His index finger of his right moved in ever so slowly and gently at that moment.
   "HYUNG! DON'T!" Taemin cried as he lunged forward to grab Kibum.
   BANG!!
   The sound was loud and resonating through the dark hallways, more ominous and threatening than a gunshot had ever sounded before.  
Outbursts and loud cries joined in, some of shock and surprise, others of fear. There were widened eyes and shocked expressions, and there  
was no knowing who had been harmed amidst the chaos. And the worst part was that there was no knowing when a bullet would be shot  
again, and who it would be aimed towards this time.
   Amidst, Onew was the first one to regain sanity.
  Buoya...? I'm not shot....? But he aimed it at...
   A flash of horrible realization crossed Onew's face. 
   "TAEMIN!!" he yelled out, as he ran over to cradle his dongsaeng in his arms. The other members' scurried over with widened eyes to see  
the life and death state of their maknae. Taemin was lying limply in Onew's arms, his eyes half-opened, half-closed. 
   "Hyung....." Taemin breathed heavily. "Am....I...dead...yet...?"
   Taemin's expression was blank and in shock, his eyes seemed to be ready to roll backwards in his head. With the amount of consciousness  
he had left, he raised his hand to his forehead, where he felt the impact. There was circular spot on his forehead, and it was stinging  
and pinching him unbearably.
   Is this what a bullethole feels like?
   As he continued touching his forehead, he suddenly felt something long and skinny sticking out of his bullethole.
   Buoya...?
   "YAH! YOU BYAGGUKUYU!!! HOW CAN YOU THINK YOU'RE DYING?!" Key's loud and obnoxious voice cut through his semi-consciousness  
immediately, and suddenly jolted him awake. He suddenly felt a tugging on his forehead, and he heard a pop as something was removed
pulled from it.
  What the...?
   Taemin finally opened his eyes and saw something that made him want to faint all over again.
   Key was holding a plastic dart in his right hand, and had a VERY annoyed expression on his face.
   Onew, Jonghyun and Minho were all looking down at him with half-concerned, half-amused faces.
   "What happened...?" Taemin's words faded away as he saw his Kim Kibum-hyung bent over in the corner for some apparent reason. It was  
only when Taemin noticed that he was shaking that he realized that Kibum was laughing.
   Taemin pulled himself to a sitting position.
   "Kibum hyung...what're you....?"
   Kibum turned around, and a full, all out laughter echoed through  the halls. While SHINee all truly looked appalled, Kibum was holding  
his stomach with one hand and the now clearly obviously black toy gun in the other with tears in his eyes.
   "O...mo....na...." he wheezed through his heavy laughter. "...you...should've....seen the looks....on your guys face." He hugged  
his stomach and laughed even harder.
   "He played a prank on us?" Taemin muttered incredously, still not believing he'd just been "punked".
   "Scared the life out of me..." Key breathed in relief, loosing all his divaness and self-confidence for a moment.
   "Kibum-hyung, that was so not cool," Jonghyun scoffed.
   At those words, Kibum's laughter finally died down slowly as he wiped the tears out of his eyes.
   "Miahne, miahne," Kibum breathed, still catching up from all the laughing. "Hyoyeon made me do it."
   Minho eyes seemed to pop out of his head. "Hyoyeon noona?! Wae?"
   "She said you guys were making a bigger deal out of something that was already a big deal when I dropped by hospital," Kibum said, as he  
brushed some dust off his clothes. He disdainfully chucked the toy gun away. "You see, I had left early from that little party group at  
Teukie-hyung's house because I had a rehersal for a little drama activity I was doing, so I managed to not get caught up in everything.
   "When Hyoyeon called me and told me what'd happened, I ditched the rehersal and ran to the hospital as fast as I could. I saw them all  
lying there and I seriously had no idea what to do. My mind was blank when I saw them all in such a state. Hyoyeon-ssi filled me in on all  
that happened and.....she also told me about how you guys had decided to go and mess things up. She then told me to get back at you guys  
somehow for meddling and well....we came up with this..."
   Key scoffed and rolled his eyes. "Couldn't you have decided on something a little less treacherous and evil and blood pressure rising?"
   Kibum scratched the back of his head awkwardly. "Well, I guess I was affected by the serial killer movie project I'm filming soon so  
yeah....plus we thought this might be a good way to show you what could happen. We don't want you risking your lives just to find out  
some stupid hints that might not be worth anything."
   "I'm just glad hyung's still on our side" Taemin said sweetly. Kibum looked up, slightly startled by the sudden comment of  
appreciation. He saw Taemin beaming at him, and couldn't help but return the smile.
   Onew suddenly pushed past all of them and walked towards the door.
   "Araseo," he said. "We'll stay out of it if you guys want us to so badly......for now." He smiled and beckoned for them to leave. They all  
returned the smile gratefully and followed him, all walking at a rapid pace and clearly looking eager to get out of the dreadful building.
   As soon as they made it back out onto the crowded streets of Seoul, they all looked grateful to breathe in the slightly smoggy yet still  
fresh air of the city environment.
   "Well, I guess this means SHINee detectives are retiring for now," Onew sighed, slightly dissapointed.
   Kibum patted him on the back. "Don't worry you did a great job," he winked. "Now I have more dirt on Teukie-hyung concerning his  
relationship with that special girl of his." at that they all burst into laughter.
   Taemin suddenly bent 90 degrees at Kibum.
   "Kamhamsupnida Kibum-hyung," he said. "We take back what we said before....you're a great actor."
   "Ne, ne, you scared the crap out of me," Jonghyun laughed.
   "You've inspired me," Minho said lamely.
   "You're such a diva," Key scoffed.
   "Araseo, araseo, I think we'll have to leave now, it's pretty late," Onew spoke up suddenly. He glanced at his watch. "We really  
should get back.....annyoung Kibum hyung!!" He waved and started walking away as Kibum waved back.
   "Annyoung!" he cried after them. And with that, SHINee blended into the darkness of the city streets, leaving Kibum standing deserted 
and alone in the middle of the sidewalk. He looked around at the normally crowded city street and was almost shocked to see how barren 
and empty it truly was at night.
   He looked down at his own watch. I'd better get going too. Hyoyeon's probably waiting for me. Kibum puffed into the slightly cold  
air, pulled his thin scarf over his face and started to walk. His footsteps seemed extremely loud in the silence of the night, but he  
didn't mind and just continued on his own.
   It's so peaceful at night, he sighed, gazing up into the stars and moon that had finally revealed themselves.
   At that moment, he heard the sound of other footsteps behind him.
   There must be other late-night shoppers as well, he thought. Out of curiousity, he decided to turn around anyways.
   Kibum's eyes widened suddenly. 
   "Gotcha...." a voice spoke in English.
   The last thing he saw before his mind blurred completely into the darkness was a woman with long, flowing blonde hair, dressed  
completely in black.

                                                                        ****************************************************
   
   Hyoyeon frowned yet another time as she heard another dejected beeping tone of her call being rejected. She scratched her head furiously
and turned to look at the cheap wall clock plastered on the wall of the hospital. 1:27 A.M. Aigo! Where is that slacker! He promised he'd take
care of them by 11:00! It's been an hour and a half since then. 
   Hyoyeon shoved her phone back into her jean pockets with a huff and turned back to Eunhyuk, who was still knocked out cold and hadn't 
moved an inch ever since they got into the hospital. Her inner confession to how she felt about him was really nagging at her by this time,
and she really, really wanted him to wake up so she could ask him how he feels as well, although she knew it was best for him to heal 
through resting. 
  At that moment, a nurse came in and interuptted her inner thoughts. She was a different nurse from the one who had comforted Hyoyeon
before, younger and somewhat prettier. Her hair was dyed brown, and instead of wearing the green outfit the other nurse had been wearing,
she was wearing a closely fitted light pink coloured dress, matching with the hospital surroundings. 
  "Kim Hyoyeon-ssi?" she asked to confirm Hyoyeon's identity as the one responsible for the guys.
  "N-ne," Hyoyeon stuttered. Her eyes had narrowed for some reason as she eyed the nurse up and down. 
  The nurse didn't seem to notice and flipped through the clipboard in her hand. 
  "Ne, ne, your boys seem to be doing fine, more than fine actually..." she said. She finally met her eyes with Hyoyeon for the first time since
she entered the room. Hyoyeon noticed she had very pretty eyes, although they were slightly cold and mysterious somehow. "Would you
like a status update on all of them?"
  Hyoyeon breathed heavily and looked towards Eunhyuk. "Why not..." she sighed.
  The nurse cleared  and started running through sheets on her clipboard. "Well, like I said they're all doing extremely well. At this
rate they'll be fine by tommorow or the day after. No serious injuries, the blood was mostly from someone else's injury and not mostly from
their own system. First off is Han Geng, suffered from a blow to the back of the head, and is healing nicely. At his rate of healing, he will be
able to operate normally in about two days. Secondly, we have Kim Jong Woon who suffered a dangerous hit to the face. He suffered a lot
of blood loss, but he should be fine in a few days and there was no damage to any facial features or things as such...."
  Although Hyoyeon knew she was the one who'd requested the nurse to tell her all these things, she somehow felt she was in no mood to listen.
All she really wanted was Eunhyuk to wake up so she could ask him how he truly felt about her, and whether or not he would return her
feelings. The thoughts were nagging and gnawing at her from the inside, and she'd been feeling restless ever since her SHINee dongsaengs
had left the building. Oh, you stubborn babo...why don't you wake up already?!
  "...so as a result all the patients you are here for should be able to be awake released tommorow afternoon and should heal perfectly the day 
after," the nurse finally finished, flipping the pages on her clipboard to the beginning.
  Hyoyeon perked up at the nurse's last sentence. "That early?!" she yelled.
  The nurse nodded. "The injuries weren't too severe, and the boys are very healthy, causing them to heal faster than normal patients would."
  "But Lee Hyukjae here had a broken arm!" she protested.
  The nurse laughed lightly. "Annyo, not a broken arm, just a light sprain which you mistook for a broken arm during your paranoid state."
The nurse patted Hyoyeon's arm. "It's alright, they'll be fine." She chuckled softly one last time and turned her back on Hyoyeon, walking
out of the room. "I'll see you later."
  "Hold on!" Hyoyeon suddenly called after the nurse. The nurse stopped in her steps and turned around to face Hyoyeon.
  "Ne?" she smiled gently.
  "You're not really a nurse, are you?" 
   The atmosphere seemed to freeze over immediately, and the gentle smile of the nurse was immediately wiped off her face to be replaced 
with a mometarily shocked expression. She quickly recovered as soon as she could and wiped the hair away from her face.
  "Wh-what are you talking about?" she laughed. She pointed to her name tag. "I'm a properly registered nurse here at this hospital."
   Hyoyeon smirked and she nodded at the nurse's attire. "All the other nurses I've seen in the past days have all worn blue or green scrubs,
none with a pink dress like yours, and those black boots are really something. Plus, you look too awfully young to qualify to be a nurse."
  The nurse looked down at her dress, slightly startled by the comment. 
  "W-well, it's not because I'm not a nurse," she stuttered for a second. "I'm just at a different level of qualification from the other nurses you've
seen before."
  Hyoyeon nodded. "Right..." She started walking slowly towards the nurse, who all of a sudden seemed too petrified to move anywhere. And 
with a sudden move, she grabbed the clipboard out of the nurse's hands. The nurse let out a startled gasp as Hyoyeon started flipping through
the pages of her clipboard.
  "GIVE THAT BACK!!" she roared angrily. But it was much too late. Kim Hyoyeon had already seen everything. Angrily, she harshly threw
the clipboard to the ground, scattering the pages everywhere. She revealed photos and pictures of every single one of her friends, from 
Taeyeon to Seohyun and from Leeteuk to Kyuhyun, along with typed up notes and information about every little piece of their personal
information and other stuff.
  "NU GOYAH?!" she roared at the fake nurse. "AND WHY DO YOU HAVE THIS STUFF?!" 
   Unexpectedly, the nurse's shocked expression was suddenly replaced with an easy going smirk, her eyes suddenly going down to her feet. 
She casually reached up to her head and unclipped the bun on her head, letting her long curls fall down to her shoulders, beautifully 
framing her face. It was only now that she noticed this person was a very attractive individual, with a perfect body and face. 
  Her cold eyes suddenly looked up and pierced Hyoyeon's, who was shocked at the sudden aura of her presence.
  "Well, look at that," she smiled devilishly. "You caught me." She took a step backwards and locked the door behind her, trapping th eboth of
them in the room. "I should've known better than to take my chances with such a terrible disguise." She started ping her clashy pink 
dress and pulled it off to reveal a smooth black outfit underneath. She flipped her hair one more time. Hyoyeon was amazed at her sudden
complete change in appearance. 
  "N-nu goyah?" she tried one more time.
  "I work for the people who did this to your precious boyfriend lying there," she said cooly, as Hyoyeon felt her blood freeze over at the 
comment. "I was the one who knocked him out." Her eyes flared mischievously and proudly, while Hyoyeon's narrowed sharply and 
dangerously. 
  "YOU....MONSTER!!" Hyoyeon screamed. She found herself lunging directly at the girl, knocking her down. As she was about to force a 
punch onto her, she was suddenly startled by her calm expression. 
  "Uh uh, you wouldn't want to wake up the patients now, do you?" she cackled gleefully. At that moment, the front door burst open, although
Hyoyeon was sure that it had been locked seconds ago. Countless number of people dressed in black suddenly rushed in. 
  "Buoy--?" Hyoyeon was pulled off of the girl suddenly, and tossed nastily to the ground. Her eyes widened as she saw the men going 
towards the hospital beds, pulling the boys out of their beds harshly.
  "ANNYO!!" Hyoyeon cried out, getting up to stop them. She suddenly found herself stopped by a black sleeved hand held in front of her
face. She looked up to see the same girl disguised as a nurse earlier. 
  "Your time is up," she smirked. She pushed a chemical cloth into Hyoyeon's face, and Hyoyeon knew nothing more from that moment on.
  Eunhyuk...oppa....



I know, I know....I promised a long update and this is what I came up with.

I realized that if I did do a long update, it would be TOO long therefore TOO boring for you guys.

Sorry about the abrupt and kind of shifty storyline that's confusing a lot of people, but I promise everything will get explained soon 
enough.

Why the heck do I feel like I'm still getting nowhere after 34 chapters? ...well, sorry sorry sorry sorry....

And of course, thank you to all my readers and subscribers like always. And I PROMISE an interesting update next time.
