"Beautiful, isn't it?"

"Beautiful, isn't it?"

A chilling silence takes over the room as the group of men stared in horror at the stone beast.

"Father, stop this" Hongjoong's voice cuts through the silence. "Please," He pleaded as he watches Jaejoong's gaze shift to his. He didn't look pleased.

"I really am quite disappointed in you Hongjoong. Jongho's betrayal was expected but you? I thought you would be a worthy successor in the world I plan to create. I see now that I was wrong" Jaejoong looks at Hongjoong with a blank expression but the tiniest bit of contempt masked behind his gaze.

"No. I was wrong for blindly acting as your pawn for years. How do you not see that none of this is ok?" Hongjoong exclaims, lifting his arms in exasperation. "Hundreds of thousands of innocent people have died by your hands and millions more will follow if you awaken that monster. At what point do you say enough" Hongjoong tries to soften his voice. To come off as compassionate. That maybe, just maybe he could reach whatever part of his father's heart that was good and make him stop this madness.  "Awakening Dresrak will ensue chaos and can be catastrophic. You know this. So why risk it? For power? Control?"

A slow grin only grows on Jaejoong's lips then he laughs, a sinister glint in his eyes. "Y'know... you're alot like your mother. Yojin"

At the mention of his mother both Wooyoung and Hongjoong perks up. Wooyoung's eyes narrows dangerously and hus jaw clenches. He could still feel the cold metal of the hyuljo dagger underneath his shirt and strapped to his hips.

"She was one of the people I first told about my plans some couple years ago. And she said those exact words. Fast forward a few months and she's rotting in a coffin somewhere. Funny that"

"Where is she?" Wooyoung demands, hands tight fists by his side.

He sighs and walks towards what looked to be an alter of some kind in the middle of the room. His runs his finger along the edge of a large stone bowl on top of the pedestal. 4 candles placed on all 4 sides of the slab and flicking ever slightly whenever a breeze whooshes into the cave. "I'd be more than happy to reunite you with her" Was all Jaejoong says.

Wooyoung scowls and tries vamp speeding to him. "Wooyoung no!" Hongjoong calls out. But Wooyoung goes flying back before he could even get close, due to one of the witches along the wall flicking her wrist back.

At the same time, Yeonjun tries making a break for it. He vamp speeds towards the exit of the cave but barely makes it up the stairs before the loud cracking of his legs echoes around the catacomb and he's crying out in pain.

"Fuck!" He yells as he falls to the ground. The male witch, the one responsible for stopping him, goes and drags him back to Jaejoong by the collar.

"Raden, c'mon.. why the hell are you doing this?" Yeonjun asks with a grunt.
