Tae stared out the window, gazing at the passing country landscape, thinking of what to say. He was on the bus ride to Ulsan Prison. He had received the letter that his brother, Hyun-Joon, was incarcerated there and wished to set an appointment with him. So, Tae cleared all of his appointments for that day at the workplace, much to Admin Jean's disappointment, and set out to see his brother, whom he hasn't seen or talked to in several years. He recalled the frantic phone call from his parents several days ago. His parents were in a state of shock and couldn't speak straight. Tae rushed home that day. Since that day, he, too, couldn't comprehend the situation. This was just all too surreal. How could this happen? Tae thought to himself…
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
He shuffled his feet along the long corridors of the prison. The guards were trudged him along to the room where he was supposed to meet and talk with his brother. He was still having a hard time walking straight due to his injuries upon capture, yet, he still mustered up the energy to write up an appointment for him and his brother. He finally arrived to the room with much effort. The staff had enough decency to unhand cuff him. Then, they nudged him into room, sat him down, and left. Kim Hyun-Joon waited patiently behind the glass pane. He examined his current state. He was in an empty room with nothing but a chair and a window to the world outside. He looked at the glass. Bulletproof. Ain't breaking through these with my bare hands… He'd been in tough situations before… He knew he could get out of this one. All I need to do now… Is wait for Tae-Hoon, he thought, chuckling to himself.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Tae exited the bus. It was another hot day, but even the sun couldn't warm him up. He felt a little uneasy about this arrangement. It's for my brother, he thought to himself. He'd do the same… I think… Maybe not… Hmm… Might as well… He finished the thought and made his way pass the courtyard to the reception room.
Tae was led by a tight-lipped officer towards the room. Upon opening the door, Tae said thank you, but the officer replied with low gruff and left.
Alright then?...
Tae sat down in the chair and faced Hyun-Joon, and much to brother's amusement, he was horrified by the state in which his brother looked. Hyun-Joon was a well-polished and composed businessman the last time Tae saw him. Now, he looked a like a drunk who just lost at a bar fight and was thrown out onto the streets. His hair and face was unkempt, his eyes bloodshot, and he seemed to have gained some excessive weight from the last time they met.
"Hello Tae. Long time no see." Hyun-Joon said, with a smile, revealing his yellowed, nicotine stained teeth.
"Uh-er… Hey… Hyun-Joon…" Tae started, apparently at a loss for words.
"…"
"…"
"Surprised of what has become of me?"
"Surprised would be an understatement."
"Smart-ass…"
There was an uncomfortable silence for a several minutes as the brothers looked at each other.
"You seem to have changed a lot, brother" Hyun-Joon said, trying to begin a conversation. "Doing well?"
"Actually, yeah. I am."
"That's new…"
"Well… No shit."
"So… what business are you working in right now? Don't tell me you work at Lotte World dressed like that."
"NO. I don't work at Lotte World as the janitor anymore. I am actually a mental therapist at Inchon Orphanage."
"Not too shabby, baby brother."
"Shut up."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
While the conversation between the brothers continued, none of the prison staff noticed a black clad uniformed group of armed men sneaking into the facility. Mainly because outside security consoles had been deactivated and all of the armed security personnel posted outside had been neutralized earlier by inside agents. The leader of this group, referred to as "Boss-man", positioned his men outside the inmate sector C building.
"Our objective is simple, we unleash hell, and amidst that, we get his ass out of here. Understand?"
The group all nodded simultaneously.
"Let's begin, brothers." Boss-man said.

SEVEN YEARS AGO
It was a sunny day. It was the kind of day when someone should go out and enjoy the world rather than sit and front of their computer and type. But also, this was a very important day for Tae. He was graduating High School with high marks on his final report card and a scholarship to Seoul University, the school for the best of the best, well, in South Korea of course.
After receiving his diploma, hugs from fellow classmates, and even flowers from a special someone, he made his way toward his parents.
They were on their phones, busy talking to Hyun-Joon and congratulating him for success in his business abroad. Hyun-Joon booked a flight and was suppose to come to Korea in a few days.
"So mothe-" Tae began before being cut-off by his mother.
"Be quiet. I'm talking to your brother."
Tae waited until his parents were done.
"When do we leave?" his father asked. "We have to go home and get ready. Your brother is coming home in a couple days."
"Mother. Father." Tae began to say.
"Be quiet Kim Tae Hoon! Why can't you have the mannerisms of your brother?"
Brother.
Tae stood still and quiet while his parents continued talking about being like his brother and discussing his successes.
After getting home, Tae threw away everything he had received today, even the roses, into the trash.
Brother.
That night when his parents were asleep, he then packed up all of his possessions and stole some money from his parents. He then took their car keys and drove off. He wanted to be as far away as he could from this place. He wasn't wanted here. Kim Tae Hoon didn't belong here. Kim Hyun-Joon did.
Brother.
Mom, dad, Hyun-Joon…. I hate you all.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
The two brothers were now laughing within their conversation.
"You have no idea Tae…" Hyun-Joon said, trying to contain his laughter.
"Guess I don't Hyun-Joon. I'm not a dirty, penny-pinching, lying scumbag drunk like you." Tae retorted, he too, laughing.
They laughed for a while longer… Then the all the laughter subsided and silence filled the room once again.
"Do you know why I am here, Tae?" Hyun-Joon began again, breaking the silence.
"Let me see. You murdered Lim Sang-Hyun, stole all of his belongings, and you-"
"That's not all Tae."
"Wha-What? What do you mean?"
"While I was struggling in the United States, I discovered something."
Struggling? Since when? "What?"
"That society is filled with sleazebag business owners who will do anything. ANYTHING. To get what they want."
"Like you?" Tae said, trying to laugh it off.
However, Hyun-Joon's eyes weren't filled with such playfulness as before. They were dead serious.
"No. I WAS CHEATED! I WAS LIED TO! THEY SCAMMED ME FOR ALL THE GOOD WORK I HAD DONE! ALL IN THEIR EFFORTS TO GET SOME COIN TO SATISFY THEIR APPETITE FOR MONEY!
Tae was taken aback. He had never seen his brother so angry before. That and him saying that he was struggling? This was all too new for Tae.
"So what did you do, Hyun-Joon?"
"What did I do, Tae?" Hyun-Joon smirked. "The better question would be, what DIDN'T I do?"
Tae's eyes widened. "What d-do you mean?"
"Kidnappings. Murders. Strikes. Sabotage. You name it. All of those… to those who made me suffer."
"Then Lim Sung-In…"
"Don't even MENTION that pig's name."
"…"
"I kidnapped his son. Why? To make a point to him of what I would do to people who aren't honest."
"But then why did you kill-"
"Why did I kill him? Because Lim Sung-In doesn't care. His public face shows a man who would do anything to help the world. But really, he's just another shady business owner, desperate for income. Only after did they discover the corpse did the Pig respond."
"What did he say?"
"Good riddance."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
THREE YEARS AGO
It had been four long years since Tae had left home. His parents never called him upon finding him gone. "Good riddance." He recalled his parents saying. Nothing was ever good enough for his parents. The expectations he had to live up to because of his brother.
He had never called or visited his parents since the day he left. Whenever his brother tried to reach him by phone, he would simply ignore it. "Good riddance" he would say.
He was his own man now. He had freedom and liberty. No more parents. There was no expectation to live up to. His life, his choices, no one else interferes.
However, these times were hard. Jobs were hard to come by and every time he'd find one, by some freak occurrences, he would get fired. Still, there wasn't anyone telling him how bad he was and how good his brother was. That was all that mattered. With that intact, Tae was fine.
Or so he thought.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Boss-man and his team had freed at least a thousand inmates of the prison. The commotion had caused a dispatch in heavily armed service-people. But really, that wouldn't stop him or anyone. He had the numbers on his side. The guards were quickly overrun. He then stopped one of the prisoners and asked, "Do you know where Kim Hyun-Joon is?"
"He was led to see his brother in Meeting Room 137"
"Thank you." He said, handing a hand-gun to the man. "Use it well my friend."
And with that, he and his men were off.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Tae had his hands to his face. No. He refused to believe it. His brother… was a serial killer… and damned infamous one too. How… How could this have happened…? To all the people on Earth, why him?
"Tae?"
Tae tore his hands away from his face and stared at his monster of a brother.
"Do you still have that wristwatch?"
Tae raked the damned thing off his wrist and threw it into the hatch, handing it over to Hyun-Joon.
"You can have it back. I don't want to have anything that reminds me of you."
Hyun-Joon examined the wristwatch. Then, he started undoing the screw on the bottom.
"I knew I would have to use this one day." He said, pulling out a long thin wire.
"What are you-"
"You'll see baby brother, you'll see."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
2 Years Ago
Tae was in deep trouble. He had borrowed A LOT money but he had no money left to return. His house, car, and other possessions were at risk. He realized that at this point, he might lose everything he had strived for.
He sat alone at his desk, listing and looking through the options he had. He saw his final choice. Go back to them. He had told himself that he would never need them again. They didn't need him either. They had Hyun-Joon… However looking at his present circumstances, he realized he didn't have much of a choice. He when to his phone, dialed their phone number.
"Mom? It's me, Tae-Hoon."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
The security guards positioned at the surveillance room saw, much to their horror, the rampaging inmates wreaking havoc onto the prison. The superior of the two told the other guard to evacuate all people in the meeting rooms. The other man nodded his head and rushed out the door. The remaining officer observed all the camera feeds and then, he saw it. Room 137, the man with the garrote wire. He had to warn his mate. He swiftly reached for his earpiece.
He never reached it.
It's actually quite hard to warn someone when your throat is being slit by intruders.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Tae began hearing loud sounds and screams. What is going on? He stood up and went to look out his door. Nothing had reached this side yet. He made his way back to his seat.
Hyun-Joon stood up and then started laughing as he examined the time on the wristwatch.
"Heh-heh. They're on time."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
1 Year Ago
Tae had been studying at Seoul University for the past year and a half. He was the Number One in all of his classes from the beginning to the present and seemed he would graduate early. But the class he was truly the best in… was psychology. This class made him realize everything. His wrongdoings. What his parents truly were to him. They loved him and supported him, through that, he came this far.
I wonder how Hyun-Joon is doing…
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
The guard started running down the hallway as fast as he could. His superior officer had told him to get the people in farthest room out first. Room 137. Okay. I got to warn those people.
He reached the door, fumbled with the keys for a moment and rushed in.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
The officer had rushed into the room and began yelling, "We have to leave now!"
Tae asked, "What's going on, Officer?"
"There is some kind of prisoner revolt going on. The inmates are armed and dangerous. We must evacuate all people out, come on! Let's go!"
There was a door connecting Tae's and Hyun-Joon's rooms. The guard went to the door to unlock it for Tae. However, he was unaware of the swift movements behind him.
"There. It's unlocked. Come on!"
"OFFICER! WATCH OU-"
However, Tae was too late. Hyun Joon had the wire around the man's throat in a flash. Tae watched helplessly as he saw the innocent man being dragged into the darkness behind him. The man was going to die.
"HYUN-JOON! STOP! STOP YOU BASTARD! STOP! NO! STOP!" Tae screamed, pounding on the glass.
The man struggled, but to no avail. Blood was gushing out from under his chin as the wire had cut into his jugular vein and deeper. There was no way the man would survive. He was as good as dead.
After what seemed as an eternity, the man fell to ground, still bleeding and eyes still open, motionless. Hyun-Joon wiped his hand on his shirt and examined his handiwork.
"A job well done I suppose. Don't you think?"
"… You bastard."
"Oh, grow up baby brothe-"
"You're not my brother… You're a monster."
"Yeah. We all are." Hyun-Joon said, with a devilish grin revealing sharp teeth that Tae hadn't noticed earlier. He searched the dead man and took his handgun, some ammunition, and his baton. He then dragged the corpse and made his way outside.
Tae was frozen to the spot he stood. He stared blankly beyond the glass pane.
What has become of you Kim Hyun-Joon…
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Admin Jean was watching the events unfold via the Television Broadcast Channel 7: Breaking News. He sat at his desk, arms folded, eyes glued to the screen.
ULSAN PRISON BREAK… HEAVY CASUALTIES… INMATES ARE RUNNING FREE… DANGER…
Then, he turned the TV off. He set the remote control on top of the newspaper with headlines of MURDER CASE SOLVED: CULPRIT BROUGHT TO JUSTICE.
Well, well, well, Kim Hyun-Joon. So you got yourself out of yet another predicament. Nothing less than expected.
Leaning back into his chair, he pulled out a file. On the file was Hyun-Joon's face.
So what exact monster are you?...
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
(A/N): I know. I know. I am going way too in depth with Tae's story rather than Daisuke's. Please bear with me. The next chapter shall explain some more about Daisuke's and his… abilities. Thank you to all of those wonderful people who read my FanFic.
