I'm No Different. ( ChaeYu / ChaeTzu )

"Ok, go!" Dahyun whispers before walking down the corridor adjacent to where Chaeyoung Tzuyu were going to walk down. 

Chaeyoung loops her arm through Tzuyu's and they loudly whisper to one another as they near Professor Shacklebolt, who is standing outside her classroom watching the hallway. 

"...and they said Alexander actually found it," Tzuyu whispers, feigning frustration, "I can't believe him of all people had to find it."

"By it do you mean..." Chaeyoung's voice trails slightly as they pass their Professor begore she somewhat loudly asks, "The Room of Requirement?"

And Tzuyu nods as they fade out of view from the Transfiguration professor. When the two third years reach the next hall leading to Professor Flitwick's office, Dahyun is there peeking down the hall. 

"Psst," Chaeyoung makes their presence known, causing the fourth year to jump.

"Great Merlin! Don't scare me like that!" Dahyun shakes her head and the Maknaes shrug. 

"Is Flitwick out yet?" Tzuyu asks and Dahyun shakes her head.

"Give him five more minutes..." Dahyun says, "When this is done, the other phases of the plan can be done."

So they waited. They waited until the Charms Professor stepped through the doorway to get thrust into the scene. The three Maknaes do exactly as they did last time, over and over again in front of other professors, saying similar but different things about people snooping at curfew-unfriendly times. When they were done, it was dinner and they reported their status to the others. 

"Alright, MoSaMiDa will go to the library and pretend you guys are fine without my stuff and have new notes," Nayeon explains and the chosen four nod.

"Go there as obviously as you can and stay there for as long as possible," Jeongyeon says, "These two will go with us to the lake before Nayeon, Jihyo and I break off to go to the Room of Requirement."

"Let's hope this all works out," Mina says softly and the others 'Hm' in agreement. 

After they finish their meal and go there separate ways to get ready to initiate the next phase of their plan, Jihyo pulls Nayeon and Jeongyeon into an empty classroom.

"What's up?" The two older girls ask and Jihyo leans against a desk before heaving a big sigh. 

"I just want to make sure of something...promise me something," Jihyo says and their eyebrows furrow in both curiosity and concern. "Promise you both won't do something rash if either Alexander or Lilith is there."

"Well, I can't promise that...they did some bad things-" Jeongyeon started but Jihyo's powerful gaze snapped up to her, causing her to shut up. 

"I know they did bad things and they'll pay for it by getting caught and beaten in this Tournament," Jihyo says sternly, "But we cannot afford for either of us to get caught or hurt at this time. We need to be quiet and stealthy. We need to succeed in order for Nayeon to succeed."

"I...ya know, still feel bad that you're all doing this for me," Nayeon admits quietly with a thin, apologetic smile. "I'm the oldest of us all and I got us into this mess, huh?"

"It isn't your fault that they're cheating!" Jeongyeon whisper yells, "Don't blame it on yourself."

"Yeah, Unnie, don't worry, we all want to do this for you," Jihyo says, standing up right, "Plus, as Jeongyeon said, they did some bad things and they should pay for it."

"Alright then, let's do this and hope Tzuyu and Chaeyoung will be OK on their end..." 

"Uh oh uh oh uh oh uh oh," Chaeyoung whispers as she speed walks to Tzuyu after walking out of the bathroom, "Tzuyu-"
