Anna Woke up to some to seven pairs of eyes looking down on her, she gave a squeek and started to hyperventilate again.
Rocking back and forth crying hard her hands were still behind her, but her legs were free.
All of a sudden she herd a familiar voice say, "Anna are you all right? Talk to me..."
Anna was trying She really was it then dawned on her who it was and let out a watery, cry."Its happening again their going to kill me this time I know..."
My mind was going a mile a minute I felt some one shift next to my body started to tremble.
Someone else a little closer said withan Australian accent,"its going to be ok put your head between your legs and breath. In. Out. Slowly."
I finally got the courage too look at who was with me my head some what clearing, I finally got the courage to look up.
Looking around Anna saw, Felix, Kyrstal, Amber, Mark, Joshua, Vernon, and Jessi her body let some of the tension go.
They were all zip tied with their arms in the back.
Jessi smiled at me and asked, "did you do that to those guys that brought you in? They looked like they were in one hell of a fight. Even vernon here didn't do that much damage though they got him while he was asleep."
I laid my head on my knees and let out a small sob before saying, "I have been taken before..."
She gasped and said,"I think I remember reading about that, I just thought it was just a hox, like some of the other celebrities do for attention. I am so sorry this must be bringing back some bad memories."
Mark was just sitting there he look pissed like he was going to rip someones head off at any moment.
He looked at me and I squeeked his gaze softened before he said, "I promised myself I would protect you from this ever happening again. When I get ahold of these guys they are in for a world of hurt."
Amber chimed in, "you better belive it I got you."
I nodded to her and started to work on my zip ties, it was frustrating I finaly started to contort my arms to were my hands were just under me until finally they were past my butt. I got my hands in front of me then i was able to see what I was doing. I started to bite the zip tie until it snapped.
Everyone gave me a impressed look I went over to Mark and started working on his once done and he was released we made our way to the next person who went to the next finally once everyone was free I took stock at where we were we were in a lit room inside a cage.
I went to the door of the cage and felt the locking mechanism I was so happy that I took those survival classes just in case something like this happened again.
It wasn't handcuffs but I could at least try.
I looked at everyone and asked,"anyone have a bobby pin? Or want to see if this cage is bolted down?"
Vernon smiled and asked, "what you going to pick the lock?"
I gave him a nod and he serched his hair with the rest of them Kyrstal found 5 and handed them over they watched me carfully.
I went over to the lock and worked on it feeling my way the whole time, it finally clicked open.
I went over to the door and tried it but it was jammed.
I started to look for a airshaft or something I could crawl threw there was a large one just over the cage.
Everyone was just watching me like I was going nuts. It didn't help that I wasn't talking.
I started to climb the cage only making it a couple of feet off the ground Joshua saw what I was doing and came over lifting me up like I was as light as a feather.
I looked down at him from my perch and offer him my hand and he took it.
The others caught on to what I was doing and started to climb.
I was afraid of using my voice I didn't want to show how freaking scared I was.
That and I had a feeling if I talked, I would lose all confidence and be a puddle of emotions unable to continue.
The cover was screwed closed so I took one of the bobby pins and used it as a makeshift screw driver and got it to come off.
I was running on pure adrenalin now I knew someone was going to check on us any minute.
Felix went first then Kyrstal amber Jessi vernon mark Joshua then I took out my hair and used one of the two hair ties to put my hair in a bun the other my wrist since i was short josh put his hand out and helped me up once inside I took the hair tie and rigged the shaft vent to look like it was closed to make it look like we got out a different way.
The airduct was just big enough for us to army crawl it smelled old and musty and the dust flew up every time we glided on the smooth surface.
Kyrstal kept letting out cute little sneezes.
It would have been funny if this situation wasn't so serious.
After a few minutes the shaft came to a deep dip felix turned himself aroud slid down yelling when he got to the bottom, its safe guys just slide down feet first."
One by one we went down just as it was my turn I felt a hands on my ankles i let out a shriek that echoed.
This prompted everyone to start yelling my name in panic.
I tried to dig my nails into the metal surface as who ever had a vice grip on my ankels started to drag me away from my freedom.
Struggling trying to kick my ways free I couldn't do anything I was screaming bloody murder asking for help from anyone. Suddenly the man or a person who ever had me let go my ankles and start to crawl up my body it was a heavy person so it must have been a man he eventually was completely on top of me even though I was thrashing side to side trying to get the air duct to break underneath for us to fall he finally put his hands over my mouth and said, "if you don't shut up now you'll give us away." I knew this voice it was Jungkook I could feel my body instantly relaxing, I let out a happy Sob how did this man find me, find us?
Then it dawned on me freaking Running Man I was playing the game all along and they let me think I was being kidnapped again. I was pissed that was the only logical reason why Jungkook would be with me at this moment.
Jungkook whispered in my ear, "I'll let go of your mouth if you promise not to scream again." I just nodded in agreement he released my mouth but he didn't get off since it was a tight space. I asked, "we're in the game aren't we?"
He answered with," yeah you didn't know? Oh hell you probably have been freaking out! do any of the others think this is real?"
I let out a slow breath trying to release my anger before replying after counting to 10 I said, "yes they put hoods on us tied our hands behind us with zip ties and left us in a room inside a cage. You would've been proud of me oppa! I did what you taught me fight like hell and made shure my wrist were not together. So I was able to get my arm out from behind me and free."
By this time he had gotten off me and we I started to follow him figureing the others were gone.
"Where are we going Oppa?" I asked him curiously.
We are getting out of this duct safely then I am taking you to our next location since you and I are partners."
"Ok, our objective is?" I was going to win now that I knew we were in a game. Jungkook handed me a head camera with a little light on it. I put it on.
"Free you then we hide in the SBS building but we have to get there with our name tags untouched and by foot oh and one of you that were kidnapped is the golden goose so which ever team rip that name tag gets to go to the second part automatically... But if who ever has is it is not found out threw out everything that team wins."
"Ok when we get out of here you can check me." I said trying to keep going forward it was starting to get hot.
To my relief I could see a light it was almost time for us to get out of here.
Jungkook lowered himself down. The vent that I had previously opened up I got to the edge and positioned my self to go down also Kookie grabbed my waist and helped me down gently.
I let go putting my hands on his shoulders I made eye contact with him as he lowered me down to the bars of the cage he really did have some beautiful eyes they took my breath away.
In one if my more ungraceful moves I stepped back and almost fell threw the bars he caught me his large hand on the small of my back supporting me his face only millimeters away from mine. He held me closer to him in a dip a as if we where ending of a tango.
He smiled at me and said inq A very swave way, "don't go falling for me yet." I felt his warm minty breath on my nose and it tickled.
He then looked up and said,"we will continue this when we are not surrounded by camers."
I nodded and he righted us with the expertise of someone who have done this before.
I had tingles where his hands were and my heart was fluttering rapidly.
Kookie started to climb down gracefully.
One on the floor he looked up at me and said, "jump I will catch you."
I hesitated for a moment giving the large muscle bound man a skeptical look.
"In the wise words of Anna from frozen. Think of it as a "crazy trust exercise" and do it."
O went over to the side entrusting him to catch me and fell backwards.
He caught me bridal style.
I gave him a big smile and said, "my hero I guess you saved a damsel, or I should say "angel" in distress. Dose this make you my white knight this week?"
He gave a cheesy smile then said, "for you I will be that and more." His ears turned as red as I knew my face was.
He really was a miss understood gentle giant.
He led the way for me I grabed onto the back of his shirt so as to not get separated before we went out the door.
My blatter decided that this was the moment announce it was full.
I let go of him and walked over to the lady camera operator that was with us now and asked quietly where the restroom was.
She gave me hand signal saying take a right then a left then another left.
I gave her a thumbs up then sprinted I needed to go I flew pass Kookie him giving me a surprise curious look and in record time I found myself in inside of a bathroom. I didn't even take time to look at myself in the mirror I went to the closest empty bathroom stall and let out a really long relieved sigh as I relived myself.
A light Knock came from the other side of the door Kookie asks, "are you okay in there?"
"Yup, just using the ladys room." I said embarrassed by talking to him on the toilet.
When I finished I decided to go look at myself in the mirror what I saw was a train wreck, I had tear streaks form my mascara running down my face, and dirt from the air vent all over me my hair looked a mess some of it falling out of its bun, I decided to tidy up my face and hair a little bit so I didn't look too frightening.
When I was finished I had no more makeup left on my face my hair is pulled back into a nice ponytail.
I felt uncomfortable being so bare and natural but I guess it was going to have to work. I opened the door to a smiling Jungkook I felt a little awkward no one seeing me without makeup in a very very long time.
Jungkook let out a gasp then asked, "did you take off all your makeup?"
I nodded shifting from foot to foot my hands behind my back, thinking that I really look that ugly without makeup I started to feel my self-confidence draining away. Until he said, "you should go without makeup more often a much prettier without it. I like the natural look."
"Thank you I guess? Are we ready to go or do you need to go potty too?." I asked this not really knowing what to say or how to proceed.
He gave a chuckle then said "let's go."
The hallway was dark and very generic like any other building hallways and Industrial District.
I could hear our feet bounce off the walls.
I was hyper aware that Jungkook grabbed my hand and hadn't let go yet.
I was so focused with his hand to mine but I hadn't realized he'd been trying to talk to me he finally stopped and I ran into him a little bit.
I then looked up at his face and he gave me a raise eyebrows before asking "did you hear anything I said?"
I shook my head no then asked, "can you repeat yourself I'm sorry I'm a little dazed and confused today ..."
" I asked if you had any money on you they took my wallet."
I reluctantly let go of his hands and started pawing my boobs until I found but my black card had slipped underneath them pulled it out and showed him.
Embarrassingly said, "well I guess we can find the nearest store and call a taxi to the SBS building."
My stomach chose that moment to growl so I said, "let's make that a convenience store not just any store I think I might need to eat."
His stomach growled an agreement I noticed that shoe was not tied, so I've bent over and started fix it for a him.
it wasn't until he cleared his throat that I noticed what I looked like and so I just squatted instead of having my butt in the air and continued.
When finished we started walking in a random Direction at least it was random for me.
Kook then started to ask me questions "who is favorite band?"
"I dont have just one.. H.O.T and of course turbo I love your older suff the most though. I also like bts, astro, Got7, seventeen, stray kids, day6, 2NE1, f(x), shinee, bigbang, but right now I am really into Billie eilish, I want to collaborate with her so bad and Nicki Minaj I think we could make an epic song."
He nodded then asked, "Whats your favorite color?"
"I don't really have a set of favorite color. But if I had to choose I would choose a happy yellow or neon pink I like bright vibrant colors that you would see in a rave."
"That dose seem to fit your personality bright and happy with some energy. What do you like to eat?"
"That is a tricky question it depends on where I am here I like kimchi with ramen and cheese. When I am home in America its my grandmas chicken and dumpling soup or meat loaf with mashed potatoes and gravy on the side."
He gave me a nod then asked, "what kind of man would you want in a future husband?"
I thought for a moment then said, "I want down to earth man he has to be kind, selfless, good morals, able to keep up with me, he also needs to be faithful and love children because I want atleast 5 or more I want a big family.
He has to also not stifle my dreams and have some of his own that he is willing to let me be part of just as I would for him."
"You said you have dreams you have yet to achieve what are they?"
"Hmm... Helping others is my main goal if not threw music threw other acts of kindness. I want to make those around me happy even if its at the cost of my own life. There is too much pain in the world and negativeity. Why create more? Don't take me wrong, I will fight for myself and for others if it comes down to it. I'm not a naive little girl I understand that there are bad people out there, and I can't help everyone but who I can help I will."
"Hmmm... I like that, you and my mom would get along well."
"I would like to meet her one day I have seen her on one of your other shows she is so cute!"
"Yeah, dont let the cute face fool you, she can be a tiger when needed. I love my mom, I wouldn't be who I am today with out her."
My heart melts at this comment he really is a good guy.
We finally made it to the main road and spotted a gas station, I almost ran to it but the traffic stopped me. We waited until it was all clear then sprinted.
It was newer then most its florescent lights making it a beacon in the darkness.
Jungkook opened the door widely letting me go first then the camera men.
A scrawny man with a face full of acne and long stringy hair full of oil, was behind the counter reading a magazine not paying attention.
I went over to the drinks and got a bottle of water and a sandwich with a bag of chips.
Jungkook did the same but instead of chips he grabbed a salad.
I wrinkled my nose and grabbed a box of strawberry pocky sticks.
We met at the counter and i got my black card out of my hidden pocket in my leggings that I had previously put.
The man looked up at us and his eyes got wide realising who we were.
He asked, "will this be all miss?" Completely ignoring Jungkook.
I smiled at him and said,"would you be so kind as to call a cab our phones were taken and honestly I don't have a clue as to where I am."
"Thats weird a hole group of celebrities just was here saying the same thing though they didn't have a camera crew with them."
I gave Jungkook a look hoping he was thinking what I was they still didn't know they were on a show.
We thanked the man and went and sat at a table.
We were in Hanam as I came to find out while Jungkook and I were making small talk.
I finnished my food and water quickly giving me the hiccups to everyones but my amusement.
The first high-pitch squeak that came out of me took everybody by surprise, Jungkook give me a look of disbelief I guess it was shocking I squeaked instead of hiccuping like with regular person. The second one made him give a loud full hearty laugh I could see my camera woman trying hard not to laugh with his camera man.
When I had had enough I took his water. Piching my nose I took a couple of gulps and they were gone.
He then hit me with a question I wasn't prepared for.
"So you talked about what kind of man you are looking for dose Namjoon fit all those criterias?"
I let my mask fall for a moment showing my hurt when it came to that man before I carefully put it back on and said, "some yes he dose others not so much but he is only human."
"Really from what I see in the media he is perfect and you two look like the perfect combination. Will you be getting married in the future with him?"
I hummed to and said,"no... I don't want to be married as of this moment our careers are not stable enough and we are too young. Plus, I don't think he really wants something like that for himself, i think this might just be a passing romance that we can both learn from."
Seeing that I was uncomfortable he switch his questioning "so whats it like to be JYPs daughter? Do you feel like people treat you different?"
"My appa is the best man in the entire world no one will ever live up too him in my eyes I am totally a daddys girl! When ever I have a problem he is always there to help and support me. And yes at first when he adopted me people treated me different but soon after they started to relax and see that I was the same old me the only difference now is I have to be careful about who I date or let in my inner Circle of Friends there are a lot of people out there that would want to use me for my fame or my money so I am very selective on who I let close."
" that's understandable even I have to do that but most celebrities do."
Just then the cab pulled up I spotted it and indicated to it with my head.
He nodded then we picked up our trash and threw it away I noticed a bunch of tourists type purses in the corner and grabed a black one with red trimmings and strap that said I ❤ Seoul on it with siver rhinestones.
I took it to the counter paid for it then deposited my box of pocky stics and Jungkooks water bottle.
We headed to the cab it was a tight fit but all 4 of us fit in Jungkook and I in the camera woman were in the back she held the camers at us while the camera man was up front a holding his camera backwards pointed at us also.
The cab driver turned his car on and a Calvin Harris and Sam Smith song promises came on. Jungkook and I looked at each other and smiled and then he and I started to dance singing with it. Then it switched to rockabye and we sang that too we did this all the way to the SBS building.
When we arrived we were both in a fit of laughter. I paid the man giving him a 10% tip then asked if he would crank up the music and let the current song play out while we danced next to the car.
I grabbed Jungkooks hand and had him dance with me to Marina and the Dimonds how to be a heartbreaker.
We were having fun as the other members were showing up.
They decided to join in haha twirled me with a smile. Jungkook took me away from him and we started to dance the cab driver was having so much fun that he let a couple of more songs play
The last one was my Dangerous woman and I instantly went in to my choreography the other girls joined in with Mark and Felix.
In the end everyone was trying to dance it.
After wards I went up to the cab driver and told him that I would pay for his time he politely refused saying this was one of the best nights of his career. I waved everyone over saying if you have a phone, pen and paper we will all give you our autographs and take a photo.
He nodded in agreement the others agreed with me when we were done signing I ask one of the camera men to hold the phone for me while we all posed Jessi and I took a cheek and kissed his face was pure shock.
He wasn't bad looking for a older man in what I would guess in his mid to late 40's.
He gave us a deep bow and left after his music trailing behind him.
I followed our large group to the building a security guard let us in.
I let out a large yawn I tried to cover it up but some of the others caught it, and my yawning was contagious, so everyone was doing it.
We made our way to a conference room. That was filled with luggage in one corner, I noticed mine were amongst them.
Great more traveling...
The cheerleader in my head put up a sign saying atleast we are away from Tana?
I had to agree with her in that one... I focussed on the spinning activity board and started to read Noeul camping ground, seoul grand park natral camping ground, seoul forest, and yeouido Hanging Park.
I got excited and started to bouce up and down in my seat humming rocking side to side to myself.
It had been awhile since I went camping I loved being out doors.
