(Hoon's POV)

It was a cold evening, but the cold never stopped me. Or us from getting into that apartment building to feed on the delectable residents.

But because of that wretched doorman, we have to play our cards to the limit.

"So? What are we gonna do?" Scarlet says clearly inpatient in waiting for a plan from any of us. We couldn't do what Scarlet originally wanted to do, because drinking blood and labeling it 'Scarlet milk' isn't seducing the Doorsman to let you in. It only creeps them out and makes the DDD more of an option in the doorman's mind.

"Hoon, Hooon" I reply. Of course from me being Semi mute, only humans can hear Hoon. But to us dopples it is a language, a proper one.

Scarlet sighed in annoyance, "Why can't we just fucking walk in?" He growled another doppelganger sighed. "Because, if we walk in we're sure dead," the other Doppelganger says, eyes annoyed. Its sharp teeth tapping against each other in annoyance at Scarlet.

Scarlet is losing his cool, even if by his appearance. Blood isn't helping the doorman to think he's Francis or anyone good. Another Dopple Sigh's, another copy of the milkman like we all were. But with the only change being huge ears.

"We need to come up with something, sooner or later," the Dopple says, "Well what can we do since I can't seduce my way in!?" Scarlet growls, "Because Drinking Blood isn't hot" the big-eared dopple replies.

"Says who!?" Scarlet growls at the big-eared dopple, "Literal the doorman, and all of us" the Dopple replies. The dopple with sharp teeth and a unibrow replies, "I can agree with him, and besides it's a waste of good blood" he says licking his sharp teeth.

I only look at them, and then a thought comes to mind, "Hoon, hoooon. Hooon" The others look at me, scarlet seems pissed.

"I am not taking the blood out of my disguise" he growls, "And I'm not changing my ears," the big-eared dopple says. Apparently when he told the doorman about 'Stretching his ears to hear better' wasn't a lie, it was the truth.

The only one that wasn't complaining was the unibrow Dopple, because it could just hide its red eyes and sharp teeth. But not it's unibrow.

Each one of us attempts to think of a perfect plan when all of our stomachs growl. We wanted food, we wanted meat. Human meat.

The big-eared dopple looks around, trying to think of something to work for the attempted entry into the building. Slowly he walks into the building, probably to examine the doorsman to see how high the stakes are. When they return they like drooling.

"What did you see?" Scarlet asked, "I think the doorman is sick or something because it's not a man," the big-eyed dopple said. The unibrowed Dopple raises a brow, "Not a man? What do you mean?".

Now we were all curious, "Hoon?" I ask as I look at the big-eared dopple. Soon it replies, "The replacement was a woman" he spoke slowly, a smile growing on his face as he spoke the last word.

Scarlet smiled as well. While he sucked at seducing men, he was an expert at seducing women. "Well, perhaps this night won't go so badly," Scarlet says licking his bloodied teeth with a small chuckle.
