   In the heart of Seoul, the night sky was a tapestry of inky darkness, flecked with distant stars that seemed to shimmer like diamonds scattered across black velvet. The city below buzzed with life, but up above, a haunting stillness prevailed, broken only by the occasional whisper of the wind. Dominating the heavens was the blood moon, a celestial anomaly that bathed the urban landscape in a surreal, crimson glow.

   This moon was no ordinary full moon. Its hue was a deep, almost menacing red, casting an eerie light that transformed the familiar into the fantastical. Buildings and streets, usually illuminated by the harsh whites and yellows of artificial lights, were now suffused with this otherworldly colour, creating shadows that seemed to dance with a life of their own.

   The moon hung low and large in the sky, an ancient guardian watching over the city, its presence both beautiful and ominous. It was as if the moon itself were a harbinger, a silent witness to the secrets and mysteries that the night concealed. Beneath this crimson moonlight, the boundaries between the mundane and the supernatural blurred, setting the stage for tales of love, power, and destiny to unfold.

Eunchae POV

  It was late at night, the crimson moon shining through my blinds. I was sitting at my desk, drawing something that not even I could explain in words, something unusual, but interesting.

   Eventually, I got bored and had nothing to do. Looking through my room, trying to find something that could distract me was the hardest thing to do when there were red glowy lights travelling through every inch of my room. I opened my window, letting the cold, refreshing breeze enter my warm room, filling it up completely.

Wah, the weather is so nice now... I let the the cool air wander through my room, filling me with peace and calmness. The news were turned on, in case there was given some information useful either in the future or present. A familiar word caught my attention..."vampire"... why would the news mention vampires? Didn't the government get rid of them? ....Are they coming back?

   I walked out of my room,more red beams surrounding me as I sat on the couch and listened. I heard the word "vampire", how come there is nothing being said about it? Oh,they are now talking about the weather, I missed the information about vampires....But how much harm could it do? It can't be that much of an important information that I couldn't live without it, right?

   I was bored as hell so I decided to go for a walk. I got my phone and put my shoes on. Despite the fact that it was nearly midnight, the bloody moon was full. I didn't think much of it at first, so I started walking and admiring the city washed with redness.

   As I was walking, I noticed a light coming from a lonely alley. All I could hear were the crickets chirping and random dogs barking in the distance.

   I turned left, getting into the depths of the alley. Walking, I realised that the path seemed to be ever ending, something was telling me that I should get out of there, but the curiosity never stopped pumping inside my veins. It was as if the red glow was casting a spell on me, as if I was hypnotised by it. 

   Out of nowhere, I heard a sound,familiar to anyone's ears. A wolf's howl. I jumped out of my thoughts, the spell I was guided by. Turning my head, I saw nothing, left, right, up or down... There was nothing. But I heard it as if it was a few steps away from me. I shrugged it off and turned back around to go my way.

   The red light was gone...
