The footsteps tread closer, the only clear perceivable sound in the night. Minseok tucked himself even deeper within the dark shadows brought by the wall, eyes bright and ears more alert than ever. The only source of light was the bright moon overhead, illuminating what would have been total darkness, and Minseok can make out the silhouette of a much taller man than himself walking into the alley. The steps were steady, calculated, as if the man knew he had been crouching there for the last half an hour. Minseok’s hand reaches for his revolver tucked around his waist and bring it up to his jacket pocket. He swallowed quietly as the sweat upon his brow travel down his cheeks, making a silent countdown from ten, the grip on his revolver tightening as the footsteps ended near from where he stood.
“Reveal yourself, Kim Minseok. I know you have been watching me.”
“What if I have?” Taking a deep breath, he knew his ruse was up. Quickly walking out of his hiding spot, Minseok directed the gun straight at the other’s unclear visage, even if his mission have not entitled hurting or killing his target at all. “I can kill you right now.”
The other man walked closer into the moonlight shade to reveal a pair of perfectly shaped teeth and a smug smile. Minseok gritted his teeth as he backed by reflex, the gun still firm in its original direction.
“Ah, but you cannot. I thought you needed me for the secret project.” Park Chanyeol’s face fully emerge under the moonlight reflection and Minseok found himself backing to the dead end of the wall. The taller man cracked his knuckles and his neck leisurely, and Minseok’s resolve weaken around his trigger. A smirk. “A project even you are unaware of, I hear.”
“Just because Dr. Jongdae wants you to be part of the project doesn’t allow you to be cocky-“ a firm grab around the base of his gun and Chanyeol throws the gun away from sight - Minseok’s breath hitches when the other man’s hand wraps itself around his neck.
“I am useful to the project. A little errand boy like you can be easily replaced. In fact-” Chanyeol leans near to whisper at Minseoks ear- “If I kill you right now, I am sure Dr. Jongdae won’t even blink an eyelash to get another person to catch me.”
Minseok’s fist land on Chanyeol’s stomach and the man fell back in the sudden shock. The shorter man breaths shakily as he gain ground, taking the opportunity to step on where it hurts when the other man lay flat on the floor.
In the half-darkness, the other man smiles as words slips out through his mouth.
“I am the best of the best, and only I can catch you, Park Chanyeol. No one else.”
