Beomgyu aggressively lunged at Yeonjun and attempted to rip a chunk of flesh out of his arm.

"I KNOW YOU THOUGHT THE VAMPIRES WERE COOL, BUT PLEASE STOP!" Yeonjun jumped back in terror but before he knew it, Beomgyu's teeth were inches away from his skin.

I closed my eyes, afraid of the sight that was about to occur in front of me.

All of a sudden, I heard a loud noise. CLANK! I looked up to see Beomgyu on the floor, unconscious. The person standing in front of him held a metal baseball bat. He walked up to Yeonjun and lended him a hand.

"Are you alright?" Jake asked with concern-filled eyes.

"WHY DID YOU HIT BEOMGYU?! THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH HIM! HE WAS JUST PRETENDING TO BE A VAMPIRE." Yeonjun sprinted over to Beomgyu's side, checking all around him to see if there was any severe injury.

"No, he definitely wasn't pretending to be a vampire. His eyes turned red, he had fangs, and his behavior changed so suddenly. Don't worry about the hit though. It was only enough to knock him out, not to cause a vital injury."

"HOW COULD HE TURN INTO A VAMPIRE ALL OF A SUDDEN? WE'RE IN A HIDDEN LOCATION, NO VAMPIRE COULD POSSIBLY FIND US HERE!" Yeonjun screamed in desperation.

Jake walked over to Beomgyu's limp body and began to inspect it, as if he was searching for something. He moved the sleeve of his shirt slightly, revealing a gigantic bloody gash.

"This is a bite-mark. Is this enough to convince you that he's a vampire?" Jake pointed to it.

"N-no! That's a scar he got from falling off of his bike, not a bite mark!" Yeonjun shouted in disbelief.

"Can't you see the teeth imprints in his skin?"

Yeonjun's eyes widened and tears began to pool up inside of them. Soon, the whole room was filled with his loud sobs.

Mark strolled up to the disastrous scene and scoffed at the crying boy in front of him

"Yo, are you dumb or something? All of these signs point to him being a vampire,"

"A VAMPIRE?!" Jungwon huddled up next to Niki, and they both scooted as far away as they could from Beomgyu.

"Well, it's obvious enough that there is no other option. We have to kill him, because I value my life and am not willing to die from some vampire," Mark rolled his eyes and kicked Beomgyu.

"KILL HIM? WHAT?! YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS, THERE HAS TO BE SOME OTHER WAY! HE'S MY BEST FRIEND!" Yeonjun sobbed even harder and blocked Mark from inflicting any more blows.

"Back off or else I'll kill you too," Mark warned.

Suddenly, the vampire on the floor awakened. He flailed his body mindlessly on the floor, trying to get up. Beomgyu leaped at Mark, attempting to jab him in any sort of way.

Mark snatched a small knife out of his pocket and without hesitation, he raised the sharp object in the air and brought it back down, jabbing straight into Beomgyu's chest.

Blood immediately leaked out of the freshly made entrance inside of his body, trailing around the floor and shaping a large puddle around the boy.

What just happened?

Yeonjun froze in place. He widened his eyes, unable to comprehend what just happened.

He let out a loud, painful shriek and began to hyperventilate, clutching his chest as he slowly dropped to the floor. Tears brimmed his eyes. As one fell and collided with the ground, another formed and repeated the same, dreadful process.

"What? I just got rid of a nuisance...." Mark shrugged and shot him a look of disgust.

What?
There is a murderer here?!
Was Beomgyu really a vampire?!

I had so many questions, my heart was racing.

"Oh my god. What the heck? WHY IS SOMEONE DEAD?!" Jay said in extreme shock after taking one glance at Beomgyu's corpse. He had just woken up from his long rest.

How did he not wake up any earlier from the commotion that was happening?!

Everyone in the room was frozen out of fear, not knowing what to do in a situation like this, including me. Mingi huddled in a corner, looking pale. Heeseung covered his mouth in great distress, his eyes beginning to water. I had never seen him like this....

"YOU... YOU ARE A MURDERER!" Yeonjun screamed as he threw a punch at Mark.

Mark dodged the punch, "Hah, you would have died if it weren't for me. Luckily, I took the right step and killed him. I did the right thing... Are you blind?! He was literally a vampire. You all should be thanking me right now, I saved your lives!"

"Maybe there could've been another method, like locking him up in another room..." Jake said, grasping onto his metal bat.

"What if he broke free from the room? Be smart here" Mark told him.

Jake was left speechless.

What other option could we have had? Was there a way to cure Beomgyu?

Night had already come so quickly. No one had spoken to each other since that moment. Some were sobbing from the trauma they had experienced, especially Yeonjun. Earlier, Jake had scooped up Beomgyu's dead body and took it outside carefully. He had buried it and paid his respects, just quickly enough so that no vampires spotted him.

Yeonjun glanced at Mark throughout the night, as if he had been waiting in anticipation to do something. A few managed to fall asleep at some point as dawn broke out, except for me, Sunghoon, Jungwon, Mingi, and Yeonjun. Jungwon vowed to stay and watch guard for Niki because of how terrified he was of everyone else. I heard him consoling Niki, telling him that nobody will harm him as long as he keeps watch of him as he is asleep.

Yeonjun fidgeted with something in his pocket, he had a stern look on his face. It wasn't long before he slowly crept up to Mark.

Huh? What's he doing?

He drew a long silver object from his pocket. When the moonlight glistened upon it, I made out the form of what he held. It was a knife.

He slowly raised it in the air, shaking with every movement and hesitated for a second before jabbing it down into Mark's neck.

The violent move made an entrance for the atrocious red liquid that I despised. It splattered all around the warehouse, lathering the floor and the wall next to Mark.

I covered my eyes and moved away as far as I could. Tears began to stream down my face, I was terrified for my life. This apocalypse came out of nowhere and it had seemed that people were dying out of nowhere, too.

I just wanted all of this to stop. It had to be some long, terrible nightmare.

"WHAT IS HAPPENING?!" Mark coughed up blood, adding to the mess on the floor.

Jake awoke from his sleep, he looked stunned. "WHAT?!" He screamed.

Mark attempted to snatch the knife away from Yeonjun's hand, but he failed. He was having trouble getting up and he was losing consciousness due to the loss of blood he had experienced.

"HELP ME PLEASE!" Mark wailed.

But it was too late. He had suffered from a vital injury that could not be cured by anyone. He didn't make it. Mark would never wake up again.

Yeonjun cackled aloud at Mark's dead body, some tears running down his face, perhaps of joy or remorse.
