A/N: Agh... Why do I only write my chapters at 1 in the morning. Please excuse any typos because I am braindead right now. I've been sick all week and ughh..

Mm, but yeah, thank you to everyone for the reviews again and again :3

Also... Once again, I apologize for the length =o=


Sora stood in the doorway, in quite the shock at the sight of the man before her. It was.. Undoubtedly still Saeran, but he looked so different. The red hair, the clothes, even his eyes felt less disturbed than before. She just barely managed to contain her emotions as she stared at him.

He stared back, a slightly puzzled expression on his face, but he made no move to try and enter or say anything. Sora had, for the moment, forgotten her situation, as she realized this was the Saeran she had wanted to see.. The innocent Angel. He was just as beautiful as she had imagined he would be...

She slowly, gingerly moved her hand up and placed it on the side of his face, caressing his cheek and letting her fingers go through his hair.

It took Saeran a moment to process what she was doing, and he leaned back, removing her hand from his face in the process, but she could faintly see a blush on his cheeks as she let her arm fall back to her side.

"...I see you've been doing quite well for yourself." He finally said as she stepped aside and allowed him into the studio apartment.

"I-I have.." The other part that Sora hated about being able to speak, was that she always stuttered when she was nervous... Before, her shaky hands had been the equivalent of stuttering but it wasn't nearly as awkward.

Her mind was again set to Hyun Moon, whom had left her mind for only the previous moment. She headed into the small kitchen on the side of the room. "Can I... Get you anything?" She felt unbearably awkward. She wished she had at least known he was visiting... Then she would have been able to come up with a plan. Something for them to do while he was here..

But Sora figured that if she didn't do something soon, or get help somehow, Saeran wouldn't be here much longer..

"Saeran?" She called into the other room when the man didn't answer her.

"Yeah..?" Was all he responded with.

"... I've.. Been needing to ask you something." Sora forgot about getting drinks and instead wandered back into the room, finding Saeran sitting lazily on the couch with his eyes closed.

She very much liked that he seemed to feel at home here, it was what she had hoped for, and she felt heat rise in her cheeks as she admired him without him noticing. She again, couldn't help but think that he was absolutely wonderful.

"Ask away.." Saeran muttered calmly, only opening his eyes when Sora sat down next to him. He lifted his head and looked over at her, it was clear he was at least a little bit curious.

"Well, I had plans on going out traveling in a little while.. I am going to visit the mountains. And I wanted to know if you, possibly, would.. accompany me." Sora managed to get out finally. She didn't mention that she had really mostly only planned the trip for him. She had noticed, and still remembered that the sky always seemed to help him. Alot. It calmed him down and gave him peace.

Sora had long since decided, she wanted to be his sky.

Saeran appeared to consider her offer for the moment. He had no interest in RFA, and they had no interest in him, so he had no real reason to decline. Plus getting out of his room more often was a good idea...

He nodded, giving the slightest of smiles. "I think I'd.. Like that. I will join you." He said and then looked away from her, rubbing his arm.

Sora was a bit shocked, not because he agreed to go, but because, "Saeran Choi!? Are you being shy?" She said, amusement and happiness in her voice.

"No! I am not!" Saeran looked at Sora and shook his head, anger in his voice and on his face, but it quickly faded away and a playful smirk took over his mouth. "Shut up, assistant." He shook his head, closing his eyes.

"... I loved it when you used to tell me to shut up, even though I couldn't talk.." Sora placed a hand over her mouth in an attempt to hide her giggles, but it didn't work very well.

As Saeran looked over at her, he had his arms crossed as he rolled his eyes, but still smiled a little.

Sora had completely forgotten that Hyun was still there, but a slight shift in a dark corner immediately reminded her of his presence. Her smile faded, until it disappeared and she fidgeted with her fingers.

"What? What's wrong?" Saeran questioned, noticing her change of mood. He was mostly just worried that he had done something wrong, trying to come up with a way to fix it.

Sora offered a small, fake smile to him, though she really did appreciate that he was worried for her. "It's nothing.. It's just that.." She could almost hear Hyun's threatening words.

And then the worst happened as Saeran stood up. Hyun walked out of the shadows and into plain view, the gun in his hand and a crazed grin on his face.

He had the gun pointed directly at Saeran as the other man saw him and was filled with shock, confusion, and some anger.

"..W-Who are you?!" He questioned, earning a laugh from Hyun.

"...I'm going to be the one to send you to Everlasting Paradise.. I'd take this time to thank me now, if I were you." Hyun shrugged.

Saeran looked down at Sora who was still on the couch, an alarmed and sad expression on her face.

"Do you know him?" He asked, and Sora nodded in response, not saying a word though.

Saeran then turned back towards Hyun. "What do you want..." He asked warily.

"Oh, I don't want anything other than the satisfaction of being the one to send you to paradise." Hyun gave a deceptively innocent smile as he tilted his head. "Don't worry, your girlfriend will join you a few minutes after." He stated with a smile.

"Not going to happen..." Saeran hissed in response. He wished at this moment, that Saeyoung hadn't banned him from having a gun... But his twin had been right to at the time.

"... Listen to me. I know who you are now." He suddenly said, looking at the floor. He remembered, seeing his man once or twice when he was first being recruited into Mint Eye.. Hyun something, he was sure his name was..

"You were the first believer weren't you?.. No, you weren't a believer at all. None of the drugs worked, at least not on you.. And then she made one that worked, but she killed you, I thought." He shook his head. "...I... I've been where you are... You have to control yourself." Saeran was distracting when he felt fingers interlock with his and a strange sense of comfort filled him.

He looked back again and saw Sora, standing next to him and holding his hand with a determined, but comforting expression on her face.

"Put the gun down.. Trust me.. RFA is better than guns.." Saeran told Hyun.

Hyun simply laughed again. "Whoever owns you now must have really done some brainwashing to your head. Mint Eye will come back. I'll make sure of it. And then, we can all go to Paradise together.."

Sora realized Hyun's plan with sudden horror. He was going to gather up all the old Believers he could, and then kill them all at once, as well as himself..

How he planned to do this? She had no idea. But in any case, he needed to be stopped. The main problem was, however, that unlike Saeran had been, he was completely unreachable. No amount of talking or understanding would change his mind and that was clear now.

Hyun suddenly pulled the trigger and just as he did. the door opened and Saeyoung emerged.

Everything seemed to happen all at once, and no one was sure what had happened..

That was, until the sound of Saeyoung collapsing onto the floor was heard. The sound of the door opening had startled Hyun and caused him to point he gun in the direction of his surprise when he pulled the trigger.

Saeran immediately hurried over to his twin, getting on his knees and then rolling his brother over onto his back. Thankfully, Hyun's aim had been off, and he had only hit Saeyoung in the shoulder, but he was still bleeding badly nonetheless.

Saeran looked over at Sora and spoke, some alarm in his voice, "Call the ambulance. Now."

Sora nodded and obediently grabbed the phone, proceeding to do as he said.

Saeran stood up, nothing but pure hatred on his face as he glared at Hyun. "...Put the gun down, or I swear, you'll be going to Everlasting Paradise by yourself.." He said, taking a few steps towards the man.

For once, Hyun seemed to listen to what he had said, and he dropped the gun to the floor.

"Thank you.. Now. I think it's time I teach you how Mint Eye goes about, punishing its disciples.." Saeran said playfully, tilting his head. Hyun was going to regret being born after Saeran was through with him.

But he suddenly felt a hand on his chest and he looked down to see Sora in front of him. ".. Don't start anything you're not prepared to finish." She warned quietly and then turned to face Hyun. "You take care of Saeyoung.." She whispered to Saeran and then took a step forward, grabbing the hand cuffs. "Come now, Hyun.. You'll feel much better after all those drugs are out of your body." She gave a soft smile and shook her head.
