"I don't feel good. I thought I would feel superhuman. Instead, I hear six heartbeats loudly pounding in my head." He puts his hands on each side of his head, closing his eyes, wanting the sound to stop.

"Kooki, there's one more thing you must do now."

Yoongi holds out a cup, "Can you hold it?"

Jungkook nods. Yoongi helps him to sit up and hands him the cup.

"I need you to drink the whole cup."

Jungkook looks in the cup and asks, "Is... is this human blood?"

Sensing his fear, Yoongi reassures him. "Yes, it is, but don't worry, it was donated. Kooki, we don't hurt people, remember?"

Jungkook nods, and with both hands holding the cup, he tentatively takes a couple of sips. Then he begins to drink. He finds he is very thirsty.

"Good, that's good." Yoongi encourages him to drink it all. "Finish it all."

Jungkook found that the more he drank, the easier it was to swallow without feeling like he was going to throw it back up. It was actually better than banana milk. He shakes his head, 'No, nothing beats banana milk.'

He finishes and returns the cup to Yoongi, who puts it on the nightstand. He takes Jungkook's hand and tells him, "Rest now. Remember, we will be here for you when you wake, and Jimin and Tae will watch over you while you sleep."

Jungkook nods and slowly drifts into a deep slumber, his hand slipping from his hyungs. Yoongi stands and gently moves Jungkook's hair from his face, kissing his forehead.

"Sleep well, Bun."

Yoongi stands there, just watching him sleep. "I'm glad you chose life with us. I love you." He turns from Jungkook, wiping a tear from his eyes before leaving the room.

Yoongi passes Jimin and Taehyung in the hall. "He will be alright. He needs to rest now and will wake up new in the morning. His fears of hurting others are strong, and they're causing him nightmares. Don't hesitate to call for me if he has another."

They nod and say, "Yes, hyung." Yoongi then proceeds down the hall to meet the others in the living room.

Jimin says, "I need to eat and rest. "

Taehyung says, "It's my watch now anyway. I've got this."

"Thanks." and Jimin goes to eat.

Taehyung enters the bedroom he and Jimin share with Jungkook. He sits on the edge of the bed, gently laying his hand on the side of Jungkook's face.

"I'm so glad you decided to live because I wouldn't have been able to without you."

Later that night, the nightmare begins with Jimin snuggled in on one side and Taehyung on the other.

He is running through the house looking for J Hope. He is thirsty. "You can't hide, hyung. I can feel you, smell you, and I want to taste sunshine. So come out, come out wherever you are."

He wipes Jimin and Tae's blood from his mouth. "Mmm," he sighs as he licks his lips.

"Hobi, I know where you are. You can't stop me. So just come out. Don't make me have to come and get you."

J Hope steps out in the hallway, his hands in front of him in a defensive posture. "Kooki, don't do this. You're not a monster. You're my maknae."

Jungkook laughs. "Ha, I'm no one's maknae anymore." 

With that being said, he grabs J Hope, lifts him with one hand off the floor, and plunges his fangs into his neck. He was fast, faster than any of his hyungs, and stronger. J Hope didn't stand a chance.

While feasting on J Hope, Namjoon tries to sneak up from behind with a syringe in his hand. Jungkook looks at him, never letting go of J Hope. His eyes turn red as he stares at Namjoon.

"No, Kooki, stop! Don't do this, please." Namjoon had no control over his hand as he lifted the syringe to the side of his neck and injected himself. "Jungkook, you have to stop . . ." he drops to the floor.

As Jungkook walks through the house, his hunger is satisfied. He becomes increasingly aware of how quiet it is.

It is deafeningly quiet. He stops and begins to take everything in.

"I'm alone." His blood thirst has gone, and the house, usually full of life, is deathly silent. "I don't like being alone. I need them."

 He screams, raising his hand in fists, "I don't want to be alone!"

He drops to his knees, covering his face with his hands crying. He doesn't want to see the bodies of his hyungs scattered around.
