"He's part of the walking dead now, a monster, a demon, a vampire, whatever you want to call it. The 'nightmares' he told us about werent nightmares at all, they weren't just a figment of his imagination. It was the people he needed most at the time of death, usually he'd get three chances but since he hadn't lost anyone to the grim reaper, he only had two visitors. His mother and his best friends." Yoongi was speaking as if it's so normal and fine, I was about to loose my fucking mind.
"The fuck were you doing there then?" I asked angrily, holding Jimin tightly as we all sat in a circle while Yoongi explained what happened.
"Since I was the one that was sent to turn you, you had to be replayed the worst part of my death, and live threw it. You did not live threw it, you barely moved and crawled in a corner to cry, that was very disappointing Jungkook. If you were in actual danger of a jinx or a shax demon, you're soul would've been eaten. You would've been trapped in that orphanage for the rest of eternity, I'll admit I left you unprepared but I thought you would've done better." Excuse you? The foick you say to me? How dare you?
"You.... The worst part of your death was....?" I couldnt bring myself to saying it as I realized what he meant, he looked down seeming guilty, "I suppose I have to explain..."
"That's a fucking understatement." Jimin mumbled, I quieted him down and shot him a nasty glare as I didn't want him to upset Yoongi.
"It's okey, Jungkook," he said, then sighed and started explaining, "I'm one out of fourteen Royal Ethereal Demons, a demon in disguise, a fake angel, a double agent. There are many names that's been given to my kind, but the most known and probably most accurate would be... 'Traitor'... A Traitor to the heavens, we are angels that's been banished from The Royal Guard for treason against the kingdom and Royal Family. We're the Knights that didn't make it, the most powerful of them all, I myself was exiled for falling in love with the Crowned Prince. I had an affair with the prince, he was the love of my life. But it was never going to work out, he was pure Royal blood while i was an impure blood sucking monster, as well as a man. Me and the Prince didn't care though, we were in love, we were young, we were stupid. We planned to run away from the kingdom but ultimately failed, the King was so angry that he murdered his own son in a fit of frustration. He murdered the love of my life right in front of my eyes, then proceeded to frame me. He claimed he was heart broken and that I was in love with him, but the Prince didn't love me back. The king started a rumour that I was the one that killed his son out of anger of being rejected. I was stripped of my dignity, my status, my own family rejected me and threw me away until the whole kingdom decided to banish me to The Red Lands. I was so heart broken by the death of the Prince that I actually went insane, my mind was clouded by hatred. I seeked my revenge and found it at some point, I murdered the King, I murdered his family, I murdered most of the Holy Guards along with my own family for believing the scumbag king instead of their son. They sentenced me to a life of Hell without even caring about the truth, I killed everyone that's ever wronged me. I destroyed the whole kingdom because that damned bastard killed my lover, they wrote in books about me for centuries. I was given the name 'Loveless Traitor', they taught their children about my story. They wrote fairytales about me and the Prince, a sad love tale of a Royal prince falling in love with his Royal Guard, a story of what a man's love can accomplish. A story of hatred and sadness that was passed down for generations and used to teach the people not to blindly fall in love a do stupid things because of it. They used my name as a threat to newly weds, they used my name to threaten their wife's into not leaving them. At some point they even changed the princes gender and turned it into some kind of Romeo and Juliet sob story. Eventually I had enough, after six thousand years of isolation and sadness I finally managed to end my life after so long of trying. I cut my wrists, I drank drugs, I hung myself on a chandelier but I realized that I've already been cursed. As a punishment for what I did the Royal Ethereal Demons cursed me into an existence of constant suffering, not even to be called a life. Only a sad, empty being that still longs for that one person they loved so many ages ago. But eventually I managed to cheat the system, I managed to use a curse of binding on a rope, after years of trying I finally managed to end my life and join my long list Prince. Only I didn't join my Prince, at the end of the day the punishment for wiping out an entire population was too grave to be forgiven, so I was made a part of The Ethereal Demons, and to this day I'm forced to serve the bidding of a higher being. Over the last three million years I've been tirelessly doing the bidding of others, this is where you come in, Jungkook."
We all listened carefully to his story, I could see Taehyung, Jimin and Hobiseok wiping their eyes and sniffling while the rest of us tried desperately not to cry at the sad story, "That's heartless...." Taehyung mumbled, "You were angry... That the love of your life was murdered right in front of your eyes and they did that to you?..." Jimin came in to, along with Hoseok, "What kind of cruelty..." But Yoongi mostly just ignored it and continued with his story.
"For about six hundred years I've been working as somewhat of a reaper, I carry a poison in my body, a virus that I'm ordered to spread onto the human population. They sent me here to inject the virus into your body for you to carry and spread on your own. As far as The Ethereal's go, this was meant to slow you down in this apocalypse. But it seems they realized the danger the human race is in with these demons, it seems they modified the virus and made it to strengthen you. It seems to have the same properties as the curse I've been put under, in human words youre a vampire. A walking dead monster that's meant to save the human race."
"I'm gonna be like you now?... I'll never die?... I'll watch... I'll watch all my friends grow old and die and there's nothing I'd be able to do about it...." I mumbled, seeming to realize everything for the first time, I looked up at Yoongi with teary eyes hoping to dear god I won't be sentenced into the living hell he's just described.
"No.... The Ethereal Demons are cruel, but they aren't cruel enough to punish an innocent human to such an extent, you're a vampire. A stake to the heart will be the end of you, you can go out into the sun, you can eat food, but you need blood to stay conscious. You won't die, but you'll get weak, and if you don't feed for long enough you'll end up in a coma-like state of unresponsive sleep, your mind will be active but until you're fed blood you will remain unable to move or speak or communicate to anybody. It's hard to get to that stage, but its possible, for now your life will continue as normal, just make sure to feed on at least four cups of blood a day and you'll be fine."
"There's a slight problem with that, not only is there a problem of how to get the blood, but also the small and tiny little detail thats just a little bit important. Yea, it's the fact that he's going to continue living like normal, because, you know, he's dead, you killed him." Taehyungs words were spoken in a very unnecessary poison, I continued to glare at anyone who insulted Yoongi. Wait- why do I seem so attached?
"Hyung, wait- does all this contribute to why I'm so attached do you? I would never let myself get this attached to anyone." I said, he nodded, ultimately ignoring Taehyungs poisonous words, "I came here targeting you specifically, your whole life has already been planned out by The Ethereal's. When you were born your body was modified to be attracted and drown to me and any other Ethereal Demons you might come into contact with."
"What do you mean my whole life was already planned out?" I asked, slightly triggered at that, I don't like being controlled by anybody, and there ain't no way I'm letting that Ethereal bullshit control me.
"You were hand picked for the virus to be spread, 'your whole life has been planned out', we planned everything you've done so far. Like a guardian angel, so to speak. Youre being quite stubborn though, you were meant to fall in love with Hoseok, but instead you fell in love with not one, but two different people that weren't even meant to be in your life. You don't listen to that little voice in your head and do whatever the fuck you want, it's quite annoying and troublesome, I actually had to kill you just to make you listen." Yoongi chuckled slightly, it's good to know I have that much control then? I still don't like this, but how can I be mad at that pretty smile?
