Namjoon kept his guard bright and early. This time Seokjin accompanied him. They walked around Dungrove, keeping an eye out for anything suspicious lurking around until they met a large group of people surrounding the entrance.

"What's happening here?" Seokjin asked the group, "Another death!" A man yelled out, "Another death in the cursed town, you promised us Namjoon! You promised us we would all be safe here!!" The crowd erupted towards them both.

"We will find who is doing this, I promise you-"

"Enough with the stupid promises! We don't need your talk, we need loyalty, no promises, we need a certainty!"

Namjoon scoffed, "Listen, we are doing the best we can right now. If you think you can take on whatever is killing everyone, so be it... go for it!" He spat, walking off with Jin slowly following him.

"We are losing everyone Jin, what is happening to them all?" Namjoon asked. The people of this town never argued with him. They would always take his word... Where did he go wrong?

"Don't worry brother, we will get to the bottom of this!"

"We better, who knows who'll be next," Namjoon huffed, walking faster away from the roaring crowd.

Meanwhile, Hannah and Lucas are located back to where it all began for Lydia and Hannah, their first house in Dungrove.

They stayed hidden and only came out of hiding whenever they were starving. They hunted in the night, then quarantined themselves during the days until they couldn't see a shadow in sight.

The couple were much stronger from the previous meetings with Namjoon and his family, including Lydia.

She took upon Sam and Nathaniel's quest, which was to eliminate Namjoon. The one man who caused the deaths of her beloved friends she gained throughout her journey being a vampire.

As for Lucas, Hannah showed him the better world of being an immortal. She should him things he never even knew he could do. Together they were inseparable. They were the only team standing with a few castaways that ran away from the fight during the day their leader died.

"About Lydia..." Lucas sighed, staring at the clock strike a new hour, "What should we do with her? I refuse to cause her any pain. After all, she's our daughter!"

"We won't touch a hair on her, it's mainly Jungkook and Namjoon we need to keep an eye on." Hannah chuckled, "If we get Lydia with us, we could make sure Lydia knows the real truth and Kim Namjoon will be dead.

"A win for us."
