Hyunjin Bites A Human

Hyunjin was practically insane. He heard Changbin screaming his name and dragged Suho up from where he was kneeling- trying to peel Felix off of Chanyeol. A few vampires had tried to pull the blond away, but they couldn't. With a hard shake Hyunjin yelled in his face. "I need blood! Get me blood- NOW!"

The leader blinked owlishly, then gestured to the donors of his coven. "Take anything- anything- just- you have to stop him. I know- okay? I already know what you think, but I love him too much. You understand? I love him."

Hyunjin's expression darkened but he moved as soon as Exo's donors began to walk to where his coven was kneeling, and then he put himself in Felix's sightline.

"Cub? Honey-bear. Channie needs you now. Go find Channie for me."

It took a few seconds- his hand just squeezing around Chanyeol's beating heart- but Felix heard. He melted. There was blood flecked all over his face and doubling the appearance of his freckles- blood covering both hands almost to the elbow. His tears made little treks through some of the spatter, dripping pink into Chanyeol's open ribcage. The elder vampire wasn't moving.

Felix nodded and crawled away on his hands and knees, joining the others, watching Chan's body flutter into ash. He only had his head and one shoulder intact, and Minho cradled what was left of him in both hands.

"Huh-he's not bruh-breathing, Jinnie." The human sobbed.

Hyunjin stepped in front of them and knelt, taking the wrist of the first donor to approach him. He'd never bitten a human and had it end well, but Chan was dying, and he had to do something.

As soon as his fangs pierced the skin he lost himself in the taste. Seungmin choked him, having to literally stop the blood from going down his throat.

"Channie NEEDS it." He whispered against his ear. And the elder nodded, spitting the mouthful between Chan's open lips.

Immediately, the deterioration stopped. At the next mouthful, it began to regress, but he had to switch to another donor. Then another. Then another.

The ash was fluttering back into place and sealing into itself. Like grey plaster- it melted against the edges of his neck, forming down his shoulders and torso. It didn't start to turn skin-colored until he had most of his upper body back.

The fourth time he reached out for a donor, there was no one standing there.

"I need MORE." Hyunjin snarled, looking around.

"Use me." Changbin demanded, putting his arm out. Hyunjin took the offer and continued the same process until Changbin was colorless and shaky.

"Need more."

Innie held out an arm next. Then Jisung. Most of Chan's body had returned- just one arm was still missing. "Stop. Stop, Jinnie. Gonna pass out." Jisung muttered, pushing at his head.

The vampire let him fall back and Felix caught him around the waist. "More."

"Me." Minho offered, sticking his pale arm out.

Hyunjin eyed his frail body and the bruised skin that showed when he pulled the long sleeve of his shirt up.

"I can tell that you don't have a lot."

"I do. I always do, take it. I'll be fine."

The vampire huffed- there was blood all over his mouth, drips of it going halfway down his neck. He whined uneasily but he took Minho's wrist and bit it.
