San and Woo Young pulled up to an old cabin, the exterior was covered in tangled vines and damp moss, giving the cabin a musty feel. "This is it," Woo Young clarified when looking down to his cell map, the ding ringing in the car that told them they had arrived at their destination. San scanned the area, his fury rising again. He pulled the car behind a tall bush, hoping to hide it from view. The cabin was surrounded by more demons than San had ever seen.
"Shit.." He mumbled, trying to plot the best plan to get through. He bit his lip. Woo Young could see San growing angry and anxious, and placed a hand on San's thigh.
Seonghwa pulled up shortly after in a black '12 Camry, he noticed the red Dodge, and pulled up slowly next to it, turning his car off. San noticed the new vehicle, and got out, Woo Young following. The group was just far enough away they could walk around quietly enough to not be spotted. Seonghwa got out, and Yunho stepped out a few moments later.
"Hwa," San greeted, then noticed the familiar figure, he growled, "What is he doing here?"
"Don't worry. I'm here to help you," Yunho insisted in a soft tone to match San's whisper.
Woo Young was slightly confused as to why San was so on edge with this new male around. He stayed quiet, letting the others talk. "San, he's okay. I promise. I wouldn't have brought him if I didn't trust him," Seonghwa explained and San's brows narrowed.
"He's a demon!" San stated firmly.
"Do you trust me or not?" Seonghwa responded sternly, putting San back in his place. San remained silent, "Alright then. What's your plan?"
"We need to find a way around them," San responded after a moment's hesitation. Woo Young now understood the tension, and felt his chest release, "They want me, but if they get me, we're done,"
Yunho thought for a moment, "I have a plan.. But I need your trust.. Your full trust,"
San growled, and Seonghwa flicked him a daring glare, quieting him instantly. Something about Seonghwa was intimidating enough that even San listened. Seonghwa directed his gaze back to Yunho, "What is it?"
...
Woo Young and Seonghwa agreed to stay back, watching as Yunho and San played out the plan. San slowly emerged from the bushes, spotting two of the demon's that stood guard of the cabin. San whistled, catching their attention. "All yours," He smirked, and the demons eyes flicked black as they approached San. His heart pounded, but he did his best to not let it show. Yunho better pull through San thought as the demons grew nearer. He started to back up.
Woo Young went to stand, but Seonghwa pulled him back down, "Stay put,". It was the first word he has said to him, and he now understood, with just the short phrase, why San listened to him. His phrase was heavy, like a weight forcing him to stay down. Woo Young slowly sat back down.
San was backing up until he hit a tree. Then suddenly two hands covered the demons mouths, and their vessels flickered gold, and smoke escaped their lips as they fell to the ground, lifeless. Yunho stood behind them, "I told you I wouldn't let them hurt you," He smirked. San snarled.
"Talk about a close call," San stated bluntly.
Woo Young and Seonghwa watched as the two proceeded with the plan, executing demons one by one until it was completely clear. San whistled to inform the area was now clean.
...
Yeosang was growing impatient. He circled Eun-Ji. She was growing weak from lack of food and water. Dark circles hollowed her eyes. Yeosang's soul could see it all. His heart broke. He fought to take control, but the demon that possessed him was stronger. "Your brother is pushing his luck, Eun-Ji," he hummed as he dragged his finger across her jaw. Eun-Ji jerked her head away, and the demon chuckled. "He better hurry.. I am growing bored."
...
The group slowly approached the cabin. They stayed crouched to hopefully keep themselves from view. San took the lead, walking to the front of the cabin. An old, broken down door greeted them. San slowly turned the knob, lifting it slightly to avoid creaking as he opened it. The group stood straight. "Okay.. I need you to stay behind.. Don't let him know you're here," San demanded. "Stay watch.. You'll know if I need you,"
"San.." Woo Young grabbed his hand before he could leave. San placed his hand on Woo Young's cheek.
"Remember what you promised me, okay?" San reminded him.
Woo Young nodded, and San kissed him like it would be the last kiss they'd experience together. Then he let go of his hand, and turned away.
He slowly stepped through the old halls until he reached the main room, he turned his head to see Eun-Ji, nearly unconscious. "Eun," San rushed over to her, lifting her head. "Eun-Ji, I'm here,"
She opened her eyes to see her brother, "San.." Her weak voice broke his heart.
"Sh, sh. Don't talk, " San begged as he took his pocket knife from his jacket pocket and flipped it open, beginning to cut through the thick rope.
"S-San," Eun-Ji said again, but San didn't look up, he kept cutting until her one hand was free.
"Eun-Ji, sh," San began, but he was interrupted when he was flung into the wood cabin wall. A loud crash was heard from the group down the hall. Woo Young flinched at the sound. He knew exactly what had happened. Yunho placed his hand on Woo Young's shoulder, in hopes it would comfort him.
San groaned, and Yeosang's devilish laugh could be heard, "Sann-ie! It's good to see you again," Yeosang kept San pinned to the wall, he struggled against the heavy weight on his chest, "Took you long enough. I was beginning to think you'd ditched us,"
"Yeosang," San started, "Yeosang please if you're in there, fight,"
Yeosang's smirk dropped, "Oh c'mon! You guys! You're hurting my feelings," He approached San, who was pinned with his feet lifted from the ground. Yeosang placed a single finger under San's chin, "Look at me San," San refused, he kept his eyes down, and Yeosang grew annoyed, "Look at me," He grabbed his chin and forced his face to look Yeosang in the eyes, "Ooh, the anger, I love it," He chuckled, "It looks good on you, San,"
San growled, fighting to get out of Yeosang's grasp. Yeosang laughed and shoved his face away. "I don't want to hurt you two, but I want to make a deal," He began, taking a step back from San. Woo Young was right, his posture was abnormally proper. It was obvious this wasn't Yeosang. "We have a war coming soon," He tapped his chin, "Choi's are quickly becoming some of the best hunters.. Difference is, we would normally hunt them, "He looked to San, who was more coherent," You join us.. we win, you two live happily ever after. You won't have to worry about anything ever," He smirked.
Woo Young listened intently, hearing the deal being presented. "San, don't listen to him," He mumbled. Seonghwa covered his mouth.
"Fuck you," San spat, and Yeosang's smirk dropped.
"I tried, I tried to give you the best life.." Yeosang sighed, "But that's fine. I don't mind killing you instead,"
