The Betrayal

Mina slowly opened her eyes, seeing herself completely unharmed. She looked behind her to see a hole in the ground where the bullet had hit. When she turned back around, she saw Momo's tear filled eyes. 

"Next time. I won't miss." She sniffed before walking off in the same direction as Sana.

When Momo was far away enough, Mina broke down, sobbing into her hands as Nayeon slowly walked closer to her. The older girl knelt down in front of her, slowly moving to place her hands on the younger's knees. 

Mina flinched away from the touch, shaking her head.

"No... They'll kill me." She cried. 

"They'll have to get through me first." Nayeon stated calmly. 

"And they will." The youngest sniffed. Nayeon watched her with worried eyes, seeing how she still had labored breathing. It killed her that she had to meet her this way rather than any other possible way. It hurt her to see her like this. To see her struggling to stay alive with her own supposed family... 

--

Nayeon sat in her office, hearing yelling early in the morning. She raised her eyebrow as to why there was yelling. Chaeyoung had already left for school and Dahyun was supposed to be eating breakfast. 

"You can't go in there!" Jihyo's voice was heard through the door. 

"Is she in there?" A man's voice asked, clearly agitated. Nayeon was never more confused in her life. How could someone get on her property unannounced without any kind of trace...

Her door burst open, three men walking in with Jihyo trailing behind them. Nayeon looked behind them, seeing more of them behind her and wandering through the mansion. 

"To what do we owe the pleasure?" Nayeon asked calmly. 

"Buying your contract out. Boss' orders." The leader of the little group dropped a giant bag on Nayeon's desk. It had partially opened, revealing at least over seven billion won in the bag. "We'll take what we came here for." He gave her a small smirk before hearing another scream. 

Nayeon rushed out to see the four girls in the foyer, Mina with her wrists bound behind her back along with Tzuyu. She didn't know what was going on, and she didn't like it. 

"No deal." Nayeon quickly yelled. 

"This isn't a negotiation." Sana calmly announced. "Both of them broke contract. Simple as that. Once broke, we leave." She continued to explain. 

"You can't just take them! We have them for the rest of the month!" Nayeon shouted. 

"Nayeon... Don't be stupid." Mina whispered. Nayeon looked at her, seeing her eyes already filled with pain. 

"I'm not being stupid. I'm being reasonable. We paid for a full contract." She growled. 

"What is going on...?" Nayeon and Jihyo turned to see Dahyun standing in the hallway, looking around at everything and everyone. 

"Go back to your room. This is grown up things." Jihyo whispered. 

"I'm not a little kid anymore. I can handle whatever you guys are doing." Dahyun scoffed, standing behind the two of them. Nayeon rolled her eyes, looking back at Mina for any kind of sign. 

"We take them and go. Our orders." The male leader growled. 

"No!" Nayeon shouted.

"Nayeon! Shut up!" Mina hissed. "Don't make them kill you." She pleaded. 

"So it is true." He chuckled. "Someone really did break contract." He continued. "Didn't know you went that way too little Mina." He laughed. "Guess you'll just have to be killed then when we get back. Shame. Maybe you'll bring honor back to your family that way." He shrugged his shoulders before pushing her forward. 

"No! Don't kill her!" Nayeon screamed, trying to push herself closer to them. 

A few men grabbed her, holding her back. 

"And what are you going to do about it?" He snarled. 

"I'll fucking kill you." She spat. 

"Feisty." He chuckled. "Leave her." He snapped his fingers, watching his men glance at one another with confused looks. "Take the young one. She seems to mean a lot to her based on the pictures." 

Before Nayeon could say anything else. Before Jihyo could even get closer to Dahyun to protect her, two men had grabbed Dahyun and immediately rushed them outside. It was all a blur. Screaming, crying everything moving quickly. All Nayeon could see was Dahyun trying her hardest to try and escape their grasp as she was thrown into a van and driven off with everyone else. She didn't even know how they were able to move that quickly... How she hadn't been aware of anything... 

"Let me help you." Jihyo's voice pulled her out of her thoughts, looking over to see the younger helping Mina up. 

"We need to get her back." Nayeon whispered. 

"As soon as they touch down in Japan she's as good as dead." Mina stated. 

"What?" Jihyo frowned while cutting her ties open. 

"Tzuyu and I broke contract... It's a death sentence..." She whispered. "A life for a contract." 

"You traded Dahyun for this?!" Jihyo shouted. 

"I didn't trade anyone!" Nayeon screamed. 

Mina watched as the two fought, she knew it was all wrong. Everything about it was wrong. Everything she had done for her entire life was wrong. But it was always justified. Always told that she was doing some sort of good. But now, an innocent life was going to be taken in place of hers and to her... It wasn't right.
