Rules and Restrictions.
Zsadin led the car towards the studio. She parked the car and told the boys to wait for her signal. Annoyed, the boys frowned at her. 'Do we look like kindergartens kids to you! We are grown ups for heaven's sake!'
The batch arrived in separate cars. The people who stood outside the studio gaped in surprise. About ten well-built and good looking specimens were standing in a row, amidst them, Zsadin looked the senior she was. The boys felt a little intimidated as the batch looked more stunning than them. All were dressed in casual attire with a bodyguard headphone on each of them. Unknown to the boys, all had two loaded guns and a pocket knife. Only Zsadin being the exception, she carried four guns and three knives, ready to eliminate any danger. Zsadin was casually dressed in a white tshirt paired with blue jeans. Her gaze penetrating the surroundings, Zsadin nudged the boys to come out and nodded at D to go ahead as she followed them. Gabe and Sam guarded the entrance of the studio, Ben and Ryan strolled around checking for any suspicious movements. Rose, Justin, Adams and June stood inside the practice room, in standard bodyguard position. While Nancy and Jess stood outside the practice room studying the environment, taking in the location of CCTV cameras as well as exit routes. The boys were a little embarassed. They were used to the limelight, but this time people were giving weird glances. Raanz subconsciously touched his face a few times to confirm his appearance. D shrugged, "Come on boys, we need to get used to it. Atleast until they catch the attacker". The boys nodded helplessly and got down to practice.
Zsadin went towards Steves' office knocked and entered. "Good morning, Officer. It seems that you are already in action", exclaimed an excited Steves. Zsadin nodded at him. "Good morning. I wanted to speak with you regarding the press conference tomorrow. I will be sending in some experienced officials. I wanted to see the venue to plan for tomorrow's security arrangement. Also, you need to change the boys schedule for fans' meet the next week. Could you change the timing? I suggest a morning slot, evenings are always shady. Please consider".
Steves was a little surprised. She is not how the rumours claim her to be. His father was acquainted with Chief Lee. He was told that Zsadin had many merits and achievements to her name.
But he didn't expect her to be so polite, he thought she would be arrogant and authoritative. But she seems different. Also, he couldn't ignore her eloquence. He immediately nodded, "I will change it to a 10 am to 1pm slot. Rest assured. As for the venue, Ron will assist you. Just give me a moment". He dialed Ron and told him to come over. Within a few minutes, there was a knock on the door followed by a cheerful Ron. But as soon as he saw Zsadin, he became nervous. Feeling intimidated by her cold eyes, Ron started to sweat. "Ron, you need to accompany her to the venue for tomorrow's event. Officer please follow him".
Zsadin glanced at Ron and stood up.
He led her to the conference hall. There was a semi-circle shaped table and many chairs were placed in its front in a linear fashion.
Ron pointed towards the table, "D and the boys will sit here and the reporters in the front. We always placed the cameras in the back and the front. Also, the reporters attending are very wild, they-",
"Speak a little loud, you are not audible", Zsadin interrupted him and Ron, petrified by the coldness in her voice felt like fleeing. "Don't be afraid. Breaking bones is not my hobby", she sounded calm, but it freaked out Ron. Her voice contained no emotion, which seemed totally opposite than normal. Finally, he composed himself.
"Yes, officer. I was saying that....." and Ron informed her everything regarding the press conference. Zsadin decided on the position of the officers and gave a call to Ryan. "Come to the conference hall and bring Gabe, Sam and Ben too."
Immediately, Ryan went inside and nudged Nancy to guard the entrance. Soon, Zsadin felt footsteps approaching towards the hall.
Ryan went on alert mode after seeing Ron and glanced at Zsadin.
"You may leave, thank you for your help", Zsadin thanked Ron and he took to his feet.
"Ryan, you need to focus on work", sternly warning him, she got engrossed discussing with them. After almost half an hour, Ryan and the others left the conference hall.
'Ah, her rules and her restrictions!'
Inside the practice room.....
The music was low yet the voice sounded magical, D was singing with a guitar in his hand. Rose, Justin, Adams and June listened intently to him. It was a peaceful scene.
Knock, knock, knock. And Zsadin came inside, but the moment she laid her eyes on the beautiful creature who was in his full glory singing so sweetly that she was almost drawn towards him. But she composed herself and coughed, "Come to the conference room and someone call Nancy and Jess too". Hearing the ice-cold voice brought everyone out of their trance and they immediately followed her. Nancy too, joined them in the conference hall. Zsadin positioned the officers and told D and the other members to sit at the table. They assumed various scenarios as to how they could be attacked and Zsadin provided solutions for each of them.
D was observing Zsadin for the whole time, the way she commands, placing her hand on her chin when thinking deeply, slightly smiling at Nancy's antics. D was lost in her when Raanz nudged him, "D I don't think all of this is necessary. We should go back to practice!". D was about to nod when Zsadin spoke, "You can leave, but remember your position for tomorrow would be the same as today". D nodded at her and left the hall.
"She only looks beautiful but is so domineering. She is being unreasonable. What has our position to do with them?, I am not going to follow her orders" declared Vell.
Little did he knew, his determination was going to cause danger tomorrow.
