As you and Jason approached the trailer, you could see that Kyle the head of security was already there waiting. Kyle glanced at the two of you and nodded. You nodded back to Kyle and smiled slightly. You hadn't had much interaction with Kyle in the past but from Derek you knew he was firm about his job. If the fake assistant had bothered Jason so much that he had yelled at you in public, you couldn't imagine what it had done to Kyle.
Kyle nodded again towards Jason and started to speak, but his walkie went off again.
"Hey Kyle, we've got her on the sign in sheet from yesterday. Looks like she picked up the keys from Gary, do you want me to give him a call?" The radio crackled as one of Kyle's team updated him on their side of the situation.
Kyle nodded then keyed the mic again to speak. "Thanks Josh, if you could give it a couple hours to let him sleep. I know Gary was on third shift, so we'll let him sleep a couple more hours. Hopefully I won't need to talk to him about this." Kyle turned to the two of you as you came to a halt in front of him.
"Jason and (Y/N) what's this about this assistant being a fake?" Kyle looked as concerned as Jason had and I hurried to reassure Kyle that the assistant had probably seemed legit before but now we weren't so sure since she wouldn't come out and talk to anyone.
Kyle nodded as he listened and glanced at Jason a few times while you spoke. You realized that if something had happened it would be Kyle and Jason in trouble and that didn't sit well with you. What could have happened with Yoongi's agency that this happened? You wondered to yourself as you finished explaining what you knew so far to Kyle.
Jason took up the thread of the conversation next.
"Kyle were you able to get any response out of the trailer?" asked Jason.
"Nah, I was waiting for you to get here before I used the override key" said Kyle and you realized that you were going to watch them break into the new trailer. You stepped back a few feet and Kyle caught the motion and smiled.
"Exactly what I was going to ask you to do, thanks (Y/N)." said Kyle. He and Jason turned to the door on the trailer and Kyle boomed his hand against it one more time. In the quiet of the early Chicago morning, you could hear noise in the trailer, but couldn't make out if it was a TV or music. You watched Kyle pound on the door for a futile few moments with no response. Kyle took a set of keys on a red clip off his belt.
Jason nodded and stepped back to the other side of the door. Jason took over the keys and Kyle moved to be in the face of the door as it opened. You decided to scoot back a few more feet... just in case. This suddenly seemed more serious than it had before.
Jason gave the master key one last twist and reached up to pull open the door. Kyle immediately filled the doorway and yelled out "SECURITY. PLEASE COME OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE."
The three of you waited a few seconds and nothing happened. Well, that was kind of a letdown. Kyle nodded to Jason and stepped back to key his walkie.
"Hey Josh, can you send Brian and Seth over where I am? Looks like we're going to have to do a full entry on this trailer." Kyle's radio crackled again, and you heard Josh send his agreement to send the rest of the security team over.
Jason stepped back and glanced at you. You sent him a thumbs up sign and a smile not sure what he was looking for, but that seemed to satisfy him. You took the moment to send Yoongi a LINE message to let him know what was happening.
"Yoongi just to let you know, they've opened up the trailer and our security team is going to find the woman inside and hopefully your backpack. Can you send me a description of what it looked like and what was inside it please? Thank you!"
You almost immediately got back a picture of Yoongi showing off his backpack to a mirror.
"This is my backpack (Y/N). The photo is from awhile ago, but the backpack is the same. How is everything else? Are you ok talking to that AP still?"
You smiled at your phone to see the silly picture of Yoongi and hurried to send a response back.
"We talked it out and he apologized. Apparently, a lot of job stress. Yoongi, do you know why HYBE-LA would have told the production you were a Japanese Actor?"
Here you paused to dig out the M&G packet that Jason had given you and snapped a photo of the first page.
You watched in LINE as the message was read and the three dots that indicated Yoongi was typing started.
And stopped
And started again...
And stopped yet again.
You started to get that feeling again that all was not right in the world. As you waited for Yoongi to figure out what he was trying to write, you glanced up to see the other security team members approaching Kyle and Jason. The ding on your phone let you know Yoongi had finished typing and as you read the message that feeling of discontent solidified.
"Is this a joke (Y/N)-nim? Is this funny somehow? What is that paper?" You could tell Yoongi was working his way past upset into angry. You were also disappointed that he had reverted to being so formal. You decided to dig into your limited Korean and with the help of google translate, you figured it was best to respond in Korean. And formally. This situation was moving from bad to farce. You knew if you were in Yoongi's shoes you'd be just as angry, so you tried to frame your response as best you could.
"Yunginim-eun jal moleugessjiman choedaehan chaj-adeuligessseubnida. Dangsin-ege ileon il-i il-eonaseo yugam-ibnida. I do not know Yoongi-nim, but I will find out for you as best as I can. I am sorry this is happening to you.
You put your phone away and looked up in time to see the last of Kyle's security team enter the trailer. Jason moved back towards where you were after removing the master keys from the door of the trailer.
"What's happening Jason?" you ask as you watch the shadows in the doorway. The noise coming from the trailer seemed to be a television at an incredibly high volume. The soundproofing on the trailer must be top notch. You watched for a few more minutes, your breath streaming out in clouds in front of you in the cold air of the morning. Finally, you saw a figure coming out of the trailer, with Kyle behind her and took a deep breath. More confrontation coming your way. You heard your phone chime twice in rapid succession to announce a new set of messages, but before you could take it out of your pocket, Kyle had walked the woman down the steps and over towards you and Jason.
"Alright," said Kyle. "Explain to these two exactly what you thought you were supposed to be doing"
Kyle positioned the woman he was escorting in front of you and Jason, and you immediately wrinkled your nose. The pervasive scent of pot hung over the woman, and you knew the trailer would have to be fumigated before it could be used again. You were grateful this meeting was outside, or your asthma would be trigger just from the waves of scent wafting off the woman. Out of the corner of your eye you could see the rest of Kyle's security team opening windows around the trailer. The scent must be astronomically bad.
The woman in front of you was still mumbling while staring at the ground, and you realized she was singing something to herself. Your hope that everything would simply be a mistake left your soul in a flash and you could start to see the size of the task ahead of you.
