Moon's Light

Coming Back Home

After Jungkook and Luna woke from their nap, Luna got right back to nagging Jungkook to take her back home. He continued to resist until she called him "Jungkookie" once more and broke him. He reluctantly agreed to take her home, but assured her at the first sign of trouble he would take her away no matter what.

She was adamant about him not going with her to her parent's house, but he was much stronger. As a compromise, he agreed to take his bunny form and she would tell them she wanted to show them her new pet. She still hates the idea but accepted it since it was an easier lie than trying to explain bringing a strange man home.

Her parents don't live far from the portal, so it takes no time to get there by bus. Their home is cozy and cute with a small front and backyard complimenting the two bedroom residence where Luna grew up.

They welcome her with open arms and endless kisses. Luna has always been close with her parents, so it's not often that she goes more than a few days without talking to them. They spend the first hour simply catching up on their day to day lives.

"Who's this?" Luna's mom asks petting Jungkook whose nuzzled comfortably in Luna's lap.

"This is my new pet bunny, J-um-Kookie. Yeah, Kookie," she says.

"Kookie? That's cute."

"Yeah," Luna chuckles. "Too bad he's evil."

Jungkook bites her finger in displeasure.

"You little shit!" She shouts grabbing him and getting ready to throw him until she sees the confused look on her parents faces. "I mean, we still have to work on some training since he's just a baby," she laughs nervously.

"I see," her dad says with a raised brow from his recliner a few feet away.

They chat a bit longer until Jungkook starts getting restless. That's when Luna finally leads into asking them what she really came here for.

"Have you guys ever encountered a vampire before?" Luna asks taking them by surprise.

"A...vampire?" Her mom asks giving her dad a worried look. "Why do you ask?"

"It's just that some weird things have been happening lately..."

"Weird things like what?" Her dad asks.

"I think my boss may be a vampire," she says softly. "It's hard to explain. I was just wondering if you guys had come across one before."

Her parents both look at each other with a worried look on their faces. Jungkook remains in Luna's lap with his ears perked up waiting for their response.

"Luna, sweetie," her mom starts. "There's something you should know."

"What is it?" She asks feeling her heart drop at the sight of their concerned faces.

"You know my best friend I told you about? The one that's like my sister?"

"The one you named me after? Yeah, you've told me a lot about her."

"Well...the night you were born she came to our house in hysterics. I had no idea what was going on, but I knew something bad had happened to her. She was weak and bleeding from a bite mark in her neck. We had never seen anything like it before. She told us that a vampire attacked her and somehow she was able to fight him off and run 2 miles to our house, but he had already bit her. We didn't know what any of that meant, we didn't even know vampires were real. We didn't know if she would turn into a vampire or die, but we tried our best to clean her up and offer her safety until she felt the vampire was gone."

Luna looks on running her fingers through Jungkook's fur listening to this story her mother has never told before. She can tell by the look on both of their faces that this is something that hurts them deeply. Her mom takes a deep breath and continues telling her story.
