Keeping the Balance

Description

In this world, humans and all manner of magical creatures coexist. As best as possible anyway. One such magical creature is the vampire Yoongi. After losing his most recent trainee, he is more than happy to forsake any new ones for a while. But when his coven leader practically forces him to take on a prospective human, he has no say in the matter. It’s true that every trainee is different, and interesting is far better than boring, but there’s a very good reason for why the old saying ‘May you live in interesting times’ is a curse and not a blessing. Yoongi doesn’t know what the future holds, but when you have a life span as long as a vampire, almost anything is possible.

Foreword

While the story will start from and focus on Yoongi's POV, there will be periodic shifts to other characters to help showcase other aspects of the story and reveal more of what's happening on a slightly larger scale.

 

Set in the world of Vampire Politics and Mimicry Trickery, our tale begins after Vampire Politics but sometime before the events that take place in Mimicry Trickery.  Familiar faces from both will return and more dimensions of the world will unfold as they all try to play their part in "Keeping the Balance."

My prompt insipiration is: It's a weapon that, if ever used, can alter the course of history as we know it. It is an instrument of unparalleled destructive power that no single man should ever wield.

 

Deadline is September 21st, 2018.

The real challenge will be keeping them under 3000 words for each chapter. haha

I hope taekwoon gets better (as “better” as he can) especially if hakyeon destroyed the who made him that way. Oh man I hope everything and everyone is ok for a little while at least lol

Chapter 32: Ok ok ok ok woah. First off taekwon, im glad he’s ok, Hakyeon however should probably grow a pair and just visit him. I understand why he isn’t but the nurse lady (im too lazy to check sorry) was right and they both might feel a lil better. Also I feel so bad for jeongmin. Poor baby being threatened like that ):




BUT that whole ending there. I swear I haven’t squealed like that in a while lol. I knew something was going on as soon as namjoon said “nope never mind” lol. He knows what’s up ;) and honestly we all need a namjoon in ou likes. But I’m glad yoongi and kookie are close tho. Like they need each other? BUT I can’t help the feeling that something is gonna happen.
Thanks for the amazing update that made my sugakookie heart explode lol. Till next time :D
