Bae Jinyoung

Present Time

I was in a middle of the battle field doing things related to medical. It wasn't easy when you're partner was busy ranting about how crazy the idea was. I had to help a German soldier because he was shot somewhere in the ribs. During the process of finishing, I received a call from a friend.

"What is it?" I said ignoring the gun shots behind me.

"Hey, Jinyoung, you're playing a game? That sounded so real." He said on the other line.

"Game my butt, why did you call me for?" I shouted at him.

"Easy easy. It seems that while doing my little research, I found something about that virus of yours." He said.

"Go take him." I told the other two people around me.

My partner and his comrade carried the injured soldier away from the scene. I put my phone back to my ear in near response before being hit.

Past Time: 1678

Though I was a baby, I can still remember this moment. Being in America after knowing that my parents had ran away from danger threats. Both of my parents were infected with this virus, VTH-01. I was sleeping peacefully in my own crib till I feel my mother's arm. I was being carried around and placed in a carseat. Next thing I knew, I was going somewhere, not knowing a place.

Few Years Later

I was staring out of space till I felt my hand being burned from the sun. I jerked my hand back from the sunlight and examined the burn on my hand. I got out of bed and headed out staying in the shadows to prevent getting burned total. I sat in front of the cage watching the deer I've saved. It had it's broken leg slowly healing up.

"Ah, don't worry. You'll be healed soon." I talked to it.

The deer pretty much was my only companion around the forest other than my mom. After admiring the deer, I got up and went back inside before the sun started to shine over everything. I was met with mother who was in her own place doing whatever she's doing.

"Jinyoung-ah." She called out to me, I only hummed in response. "Go out to get some textbooks would ya?" She asked.

"Yeah, sure." I answered.

She handed me a coat with a hood and then some money. I bid her a goodbye before making my way to the store.

When I got to the store, I was admiring the books. Even after some time, I picked out couple math textbooks before putting that back in and picking out another. When I was examining that one textbook, I heard a woman yelped out in pain. I turned around to see the store worker and a woman who was in pain. I looked at the woman's finger and saw blood lurking out.

"Oh my. It's bleeding." The worker said before grabbing something to to cover.

When the two saw me staring at them, I looked away quickly and continued to stare down at the textbook in my hand. The picture of the blood kept reappearing in my head triggering the virus. Trying to keep it down and give it away, I started to rip out the pages from the textbook.

I exit the store feeling a bit calmer now, what noticed was students walking passed me in uniforms. They were entering their school which was next to the bookstore.

"A place where everyone lives normally, I'm not a human, I'm not a monster.. I can't live as normal as them, what am I." I thought to myself as I watched the students walked passed talking to each other happily.

I arrived back and was already doing work off the textbooks that I've brought. My mom has been homeschooling me while I grow. The thought of that blood kept reappearing in my head. Which of course made me not pay attention to the lesson today.

"Jinyoung, what's wrong? You've been staring out of space recently, what are you thinking?" She asked.

"What happened to father.?" I asked after a few minutes of silence.

"Your father saved us from danger against those people." She answered before holding onto my hand. "You cannot fight those people yet-"

"Why can't I just fight them? Why all of the sudden I can't defend myself?" I shouted at her.

She flinched a bit then removed her hands off mines. I stared at her calm figure as she stood ahead of me then headed off. She left me there alone with a chalkboard and bunch of textbooks. The virus was still triggering me, it was getting dark too. I headed outside to meet the deer again, I need to kill something to remove the virus from going off.

"I'm sorry." I muttered quietly as my nails sharpened.

I collapsed to my knees after slaining the deer, blood was all over my hands and the deer's torso. I sobbing out quietly from the sudden kill.

"I'm not normal.." I blurted out as mother came up behind me.

"Jinyoung, let's go back." She said.

Few Years Later

I was out buying groceries from the store, it was dark out because of the clouds. I got home and noticed something wasn't right. I dropped the groceries and ran inside to be met with two people under black hoods.

"Who are you?!" I asked after seeing mother on the floor.

I ran up to them to fight but they were also quick to throw me back against the wall.

"Jinyoung! Get out of here!" My mother shouted.

I of course ignored her and continued attacking. Jumping on the sofas to knock one off his feet, I saw the second guy grabbed something and stabbed it along my mom's neck. The anger boiled and I regained my balance to hurry after the second one who was with my mother. Again I was thrown back from his simple attacks. I landed against the sofa before being raised.

"Jinyoung! Close your eyes!" I did as told.

A few seconds later, I landed on the floor hearing them groan out from the light shone. I covered my eyes from the light with my arm staring down at my mother who was getting paler.
