'POW' 'POW' 'POW'

It was supposed to be a fun outing with everyone, one without the pressure of being idols since they were going incognito.

They'd spent weeks saving up in order to afford a table for eight at one of the most expensive restaurants in Seoul, and numerous of their managers and other staff members had given them some money as a gift for their hard work. They'd made the reservation four months in advance, had purchased nice suits, and then had saved up some more so they could afford to eat and drink without having to worry about the price.

"AAAH!"

"Holy shit—"

"What's going on!?"

They were located in one of the VIP rooms so as to avoid being bothered or stared at by other customers, and they'd only just started enjoying their meals when popping noises that echoed like thunder broke the nice ambiance, and the screams and shattered glasses that followed certainly weren't any comfort.

"Everyone on the ground!!!"

A male voice barking orders, more popping noises – gunshots, if the action movies they'd all seen and enjoyed were anything to go by, except the movies certainly didn't do justice to just how mind-numbingly terrifying the entire situation was. The eight of them could only stay frozen in their seats as the noises began growing closer.

"Quick! Lock the door!"

Chan's exclamation managed to snap them out of their stunned states, and Changbin, the closest to the door, practically pounced onto it – but the moment he reached it, the door was kicked open and slammed right into his face. He collapsed with a shout, not unconscious, but there was blood dripping on the carpet, now. Chan tried to go to him while Minho forced the others to back further away, but four armed, masked men entered the room and stopped the leader in his tracks. One of them cocked a gun as Changbin's prone form, another aimed directly at Chan, and the last two pointed their weapons at the rest of the group.

"All of you, get out of here," ordered one of them. "Put your hands behind your heads, get in line, and head to the main dining hall. And if any of you try to make a run for it, call for help, or cause any sort of trouble, we won't hesitate to shoot. Got it?"

They all nodded mutely, incapable of ding otherwise. Minho took the lead, gesturing for the others to stay calm and keep their eyes low – the armed men looked like a trigger-happy bunch, there was no need to provoke them. Seungmin was quick to follow after him, nudging Jeongin so he'd do the same. Jisung was shaking badly, most probably on the verge of a panic attack, but he somehow managed to keep his cool despite it.

Felix and Hyunjin followed right after them, and Chan was allowed to help Changbin up before closing the march, two of the masked men hot on their heels while the other two left to check the other VIP rooms. The group eventually found their way to the main dining hall where the rest of the customers, along with all of the staff, were sitting on the ground with their hands behind their heads. Some were shaking, some were crying, but none of them appeared injured.
