Chapter 7: Chapter 7

On the Shuttle Patch news the following day, there was a new trending headline.

[Eunjang student wipes out Yoosun students!!]

[Eunjang student alone destroys Jimmy Bae's group!!]

Attached below was a blurry video of the incident.

This news quickly took the Shuttle Patch users by storm and eventually, it garnered the attention of many schools in the district.

It didn't take long for people to find out the name of the Eunjang student.

Samuel Han.

There was only one student in Eunjang that matched the description of the one in the video. Gerard Jin could've passed as well had it not been for his outrageous hairdo so by elimination, the student could only have been Samuel.

Samuel Han was only aware that he'd become the talk of the town when he arrived at school the next morning.

The moment he stepped through the gates of Eunjang, he instantly picked up on the abnormal stares he received and he was faintly certain that several fingers were pointing at him.

Unaware of what was happening, he had planned to ignore everything in hopes that whatever it was would blow over but when lunch came around, he received a couple of visitors.

"Yo! Samuel right?! You took down that bastard Jack Kang and Jimmy Bae's cronies!"

The loud and boisterous Ben Park made an appearance. Behind him trailed a depressed-looking Alex who was mumbling something under his breath.

Looking up from his sandwich, Samuel asked, "How do you know about that?"

"Eh? Don't you know? It's all over the Shuttle Patch news," Ben Park exclaimed. "Of course, I can't show you since you have to be an official bread-shuttle to get a membership but everyone's talking about it. I saw the video man. It was awesome!"

'There was even a video? It seems there was someone watching yesterday.'

Samuel took a bite of his sandwich and closed his eyes in contemplation.

'This is going to be troublesome, however, it explains why everyone's been staring at me the whole day. News travels way too fast around here.'

"Those idiots picked a fight with me first," Samuel muttered after swallowing his food. "They had it coming. And here I thought Jack Kang would be smarter but he's just reckless."

"Jimmy Bae's not going to take this lying down," Alex said rubbing his chin. "This is definitely a big blow to Yoosun. And now that it's been made public, the Union will have their eyes on you."

"Yeah, well, I don't think there's anything I can do about it now," Samuel Han sighed. His peaceful life was drifting further and further away from him. "Hey, you don't think Jimmy Bae's gonna come for me himself do ya?"

"He probably will. But not right away. He's going to plan properly if he does take you on. Plus, he's still got a bone to pick with me," Ben Park replied with a shrug.

Samuel Han didn't really want to fight Jimmy Bae. That punk would be better off fighting Ben Park and Samuel didn't want more attention on him. This one time was a mistake on his part for not checking his surroundings properly.

'Hopefully this event will blow over quickly and everyone will forget about it,' he thought.

Looking at the half-eaten sandwich in front of him, he sighed, "And now I've lost my appetite."

Jake Ji stared at his phone screen with an amused grin on his face.

As he predicted, Samuel Han would eventually have some light shone on him. But to think it would be so soon…

"Samuel Han is a mystery," Timothy Park muttered. He was scrolling through the Shuttle Patch rankings next to Jake Ji on the school's rooftop. "In middle school, nothing about him stood out other than his height and looks. Even his grades were average. No matter how much digging I do, there is nothing else I can find on him."

A moment later, he said, "There's no information on why he ended up at a school like Eunjang either. Someone like him whose records are clean could've gone to a better school. Why did he go there?"

"Forget about it. What use is digging up his past?" Jake Ji said putting away his phone. "What matters now is the future. This Han guy…my guess is he'll be joining the top ranks very soon. He just needs to defeat Jimmy Bae or Wolf."

"Hmm…"

Jake Ji seemed very certain that Samuel Han would be fighting against powerful opponents soon. With his presence at Eunjang, plus Ben Park, it's going to be harder for the Union to take over the school.

"What are you planning to do?" Timothy Park inquired. He saw the strange smirk on Jake Ji's lips.

"What makes you think I'll do anything?" Jake said teasingly. Looking out at the horizon, he continued, "For now, I think I'll just watch."

"..."

****

To say Jimmy Bae was pissed would be an understatement.

Exiting the hospital where Jack Kang and the others of his group were staying, he had an expression of pure anger across his face - frightening the pedestrians on the street.

Hearing his friend's story, he didn't withhold cursing them out until a nurse came and forced him to leave for disturbing the other patients.

How could Jack be so fucking stupid?!

He knew the guy just thought he was taking care of an obstacle in his way but for the issue to blow out of proportion, it just became an utter humiliation for the school and Jimmy Bae himself.

Half of him was angry at Jack for acting on his own while the other half was pissed at the guy named Samuel Han who destroyed his crew.

"First Ben Park, then this fucker…FUCKING EUNJANG FUCKERS!!" He shouted when he entered the school.

'I'll make sure to take down both those fuckers. No matter what.'

He ignored the teacher's calling and made his way to the rooftop where he pulled out a cigarette and lit it. Sucking in a breath, he blew out the smoke and grabbed his phone before tapping on an open chat.

The video of the fight was sent to him which he had already watched but wanted to watch again.

He tapped the 'play' button and focused his attention on the screen.

As time passed on the video, the more his face darkened. Once the video ended, he stubbed out the cigarette and began to dial a number on his phone. However, before he could call the number, his ringtone began sounding and a caller ID appeared on his screen.

[Donald Na]

"Fuck."
