An exasperated look settles onto Taehyung's features when he spots his friends a few feet away, both sharing looks of distress and concern. He swallows the lump in his throat, gaining the courage to walk past the gates of the cemetery and slowly approaches them, eyes looking everywhere in fear.

He hated these kinds of places; it always gave him such a menacing vibe and gave him chills to his very core. Maybe being a demon was part of the reason, given these lands were sacred and protected by divine powers of some sort. At least that's what Taehyung believed.

"Couldn't you guys have chosen a different place to meet up? And during the day, preferably?" The boy whines as he steps closer to his friends.

Yoongi brushes a few strands of hair out of his face, giving Taehyung an understanding nod. "I know it's not ideal, but we couldn't risk anyone hearing us. And this is the farthest away place from the city we know." He explains, extending a hand to squeeze the younger's shoulder.

"Well, how do you know the dead won't hear us?" Taehyung pathetically asks, earning a snort from Namjoon and a flick on the head from Yoongi.

"Because they're dead, idiot." The older deadpans.

Taehyung still doesn't seem convinced. "Aren't vampires technically dead, though?"

"I mean, he's kind of right." Namjoon chuckles, amused.

Yoongi just dismisses the comment, rolling his eyes at the younger two. "Can we focus, please?" He grunts. "We came here for a reason."

The other two clear their throats, faces immediately turning serious. Yoongi was right, this wasn't the time to play around. They had a lot to discuss and a lot to do if they wanted to go through with their plan.

"So, what have you found?" Yoongi begins to ask, turning to the taller vampire.

Namjoon scratches the back of his neck with a sigh. "I'll be honest, not much. I've been asking around, seeing if I could find any vampire with information on demons and how to separate them from a human soul but I admit I haven't been very lucky. It's not exactly common knowledge, you know?" The other two sigh along, feeling discouraged. But before they can start feeling hopeless, Namjoon quickly adds, "But the good news is, there is someone I know who may be able to help us."

Taehyung's eyes lit up at that, a sudden spark of hope filling him. Yoongi looks relieved too, his lips curling into a small smile.

"Who?"

"Well..." Namjoon trails, nervously chuckling, which results in a shared look between Taehyung and Yoongi. "You're probably not gonna like this but..." He says, looking to Yoongi. "I know these witches-"

Yoongi's eyes go wide. "Witches?!" He nearly screams, scaring a few crows in the area, as well as Taehyung who jumps on the spot.

"Witches?" Taehyung mimics, confused.

"Namjoon, you can't be serious." The vampire glares at him, a warning tone to his voice.

The younger sighs, already expecting Yoongi to react like that. Maybe he should have waited a bit longer before mentioning witches. He knows the history Yoongi has with their kind, after all.

"Wait, there are witches?" The youngest questions, looking between the other two in utter confusion.
