"Wait, a minute. You KNEW my sister was alive?" Yongsun said in disbelief. Shocked that Byulyi had met her sister before she had the chance to.

The vampire held up her hands in surrender. "Hey, I didn't know she was your sister. I just thought she looked like you and didn't make any connections.”

As much as Yongsun wanted to be mad, she knew she couldn't. Byulyi was right, there was no way she could know that the woman helping her with her tie was the sister she thought she lost years ago. They weren’t even as close to each other back then as they are now. Looking at her sister one last time before she entered her carriage, she looked down at the other two below them. "You two stay here and keep an eye on the horses while we're gone." The two then got up and followed the carriage as it moved inside the town.

Wheein watched as Solar and Byul go inside the town and once they disappeared behind a building, she turned her gaze to her best friend standing next to her. "What now?"

Hyejin hummed as she thought of ideas to pass the time. "I'll go pack our things in case we need to do another speedy getaway.”

"Great! I'll go grab Solar's sleeping bag."

"Oooh nooo you're not." The witch protested. "Your shoulder needs to heal, so no lifting of any kind. Just sit around and relax."

Wheein whined as she followed Hyejin back to their campsite, knowing there was no arguing with her best friend. Sometimes she wondered who was really the oldest of the two, but didn’t think much about it when Hyejin offered her a piece of steak. Older or younger, she loved being spoiled.

Yongsun and Byulyi pushed through the crowd as they chased after the carriage. Following it until it stopped beside a tavern. The two then quickly hid in the alleyway not too far and watched as Yonghee entered the building. The building had a second floor, so the two assumed that the woman was going to book a room at the place.

"What's the plan now, Yong?" Byulyi asked.

The ex-guard looked puzzled by the question. "Why do I have to come up with the plan? You're the thief, so you must have some idea on how to break into buildings?"

"First off, I steal the coins in people's pockets, not the stuff in their homes. And second off, you're the leader of team Mamamoo, so you have to think of the plans."

"Oh gosh. I forgot our team name was that.” Yongsun facepalmed at the remembrance of the name. “I still don't know why I agreed to that."

"Because you couldn't say no to us?"

"You...? Maybe. Wheein and Hyejin...? Yeah, I could never.”

"Ouch," Byulyi spoke as she placed a hand on her chest to express her hurt.

Yongsun playfully rolled her eyes with a smile. "I was just joking. Now listen for our next step is to meet my sister."

"And how do we do that?" The vampire asked, not knowing later that she was going to instantly regret it. Entering the tavern, she captured everyone's attention as they all stopped what they were doing to inspect this newcomer. She slowly made her way to the bar. Once she took a seat, everyone's gaze seemed to have disappeared as they returned to what they were doing previously. "One beer, please."

The bartender nodded and went to place her cup in front of her. Byulyi then placed ten coins on the counter which surprised the barman. "It's only one coin miss."

"I know." The vampire acknowledged as she went to chug a large portion of the alcohol. She sighed in content from the drink and placed the cup back down. "It's just a way to apologize for what I'm about to do next." She then lunged at the bartender and grabbing him by the collar and lifted the man off the ground and threw him behind her onto two unsuspecting customers’ table.

The two customers the bartender was thrown at quickly stood up and angrily stared at Byulyi. "Did you just throw Sogu at us?" One of the customers -who looked like the bald version of the pringles man- questioned.

Byulyi tilted her head a bit. "So-... ju? As in the drink?"

"No!" The other customers -a long brown bearded fellow- shouted. "Sogu as in the bartender you just threw!?!"

"Oh, well, ummm, that depends. Will, you beat me up if I say yes?"

"Yeah!"

"Then I'm gonna say no."

"You lying bastard!" The long-bearded man yelled as he went to punch the vampire. However, she knew this was coming and dodged the attack. She then proceeded to lightly punch him, which caused the guy to suddenly start laughing mockingly. "Was that all you got?"

"Of course not." Byulyi then kicked right in between his legs, causing him to hold on to his groin in pain and fall to the ground. "That was what I was going for."

"You !" The other customer then ran towards her and just like the last one, she was able to dodge his right hook, leading him to instead hook someone else, pissing the person off. The pissed-off customer then threw the guy and his dumb mustache across the room at a few tables which lead to more angry customers and soon started a full-on bar fight.

Yongsun was watching the entire thing and couldn't help but chuckle at what she had witnessed. Byulyi really knew what to do to start a fight. Once all hell broke loose in the bar, she quietly made her way inside, as to not disturb anything, and quickly walked towards the bar. Dodging a few punches, grabs, and a few thrown bodies, she finally reached her destination and climbed over. Looking inside the bottom drawers, she found the book she was looking for and remembered the room her sister was located in. Placing the book back where she found it, she got up and over the bar again and looked for her partner in crime.

She spotted Byulyi taking a blow to the face before doing the same thing back, knocking a few teeth off the guy she had kicked previously and knocking him out cold. The vampire nearly punched Yongsun when the older woman suddenly grabbed her by the wrist. Luckily, she was far enough away for her to process what was happening and happily be led to their next destination. She loves fights, but she's starting to love being around Yongsun a lot more.

The two left the tavern and went up the second floor, where all the tavern's guests stayed. Yongsun led the two to room number two, but before knocking on the door, she turned around to take a good look at the taller woman standing behind her.

Byulyi had a bruise on her cheek, which she assumed had to be from the punch she witnessed. She gently placed a hand to the spot which caused the younger woman to wince. However, she didn't pull away, instead; she leaned into it.

"I'm sorry about that." Yongsun apologized. "I know I said I wouldn't take advantage of your healing ability, but here I went using it for my own gain."

Byulyi smiled softly as she shook her head. The wounds that once surrounded her healed back to normal. "No need to be sorry. I needed a good fight to take out the stress sometimes. I should be thanking you. Besides, the wounds are all gone, and I feel a lot better now."

"Just because you can heal, doesn't mean we can just throw you into danger. It must take some energy to get better and you being cursed makes it a lot harder for you to feed. Just promise me to be more careful in your fights."

"Will do," Byulyi promised. With Yongsun’s hand still resting on her cheek, she decided to be a bit daring and kissed the palm of it.  "As long as there's no stabbing involved, I'll be fine." She took note of the ex guards' reddened face, but lack of any pulling back. As if she wanted another. "Yongsun?" Byulyi called out, which seemed to have awoken the ex-guard as she finally pulled her hand away.

"Sorry, I zoned out."

"Hopefully with your innocence still intact." The vampire definitely got a slap on the arm for that comment, but it wasn't like the ones before where she would cry out in pain. It was gentle, as if she was made of glass. Byulyi couldn't help but notice a big shift in Yongsun's behavior, and although she might have an idea as to why she decided to push that thought away for now and keep doing what she does best. Pestering the older woman. "Are you going to knock on the door, or do I have to?"

"Oh, right." Yongsun then proceeded to knock on the door. Not long after, a woman with long black hair and looking very similar to Yongsun opened the door. She looked much older, however, seemed like the same height as the ex-guard, maybe a bit taller by a few centimeters.

"Who are you two?" The woman asked. Confused as she wasn't expecting anyone until later into the evening. First looking at the taller woman, she felt as if she had remembered her from somewhere then it finally clicked for her. "Hey, wait a minute. You're the woman I met in the city. The one buying a leather suit, who needed help with her tie."

Byulyi smiled. Glad that the woman had also recognized her. "That's me."

"Do you remember me, Yonghee?" Yongsun asked.

The eldest sister changed her gaze and looked at the ex-guard. It felt like looking in a mirror, but for a second, she had no idea who this woman could be. Confused how this woman could know her until she noticed the small beauty mark on top of her right eye and then it finally clicked. Suddenly tears started to fall down her face. "Yongsun?" She whispered. The ex guard only smiled and nodded. Knowing her suspicions were correct, the woman pulled her sister into a bear hug. "I thought you were dead!"

Yongsun chuckled lightly as she returned the hug. Tears streaming down her face. "I could say the same to you."

The two pulled away, but Yonghee's hands stayed resting atop her sister's shoulders. "How did you know I was here?"

"Let's just say I bumped into someone who confused me for you, leading me to believe that you were still alive."

"I believe that was Hwanwoong. He's really the only person here who knows what I look like, so I'm gonna have to thank him the next time I see him. But enough about that, we have so much to catch up on."

"We really do, but sadly I- " However, before Yongsun could finish her sentence, she, along with her sister, were shoved into Yonghee's room.

"She would love to catch up with you!" Byulyi exclaimed. "Though do remember that we have to go back to the campsite later."

"Moonbyul, what are you doing?"

"Giving you a chance to speak to your sister after not being able to for god knows how long. I'll just wait outside, so you have the needed space between you two, and talk about how attractive I am." The vampire spoke and quickly closed the door before hearing any more of Yongsun's protests.

"Byulyi!" The ex-guard yelled, but the door slammed in front of her face before she could give the vampire an earful. Releasing a heavy sigh, she decided to do what Byulyi suggested and turned her gaze back to her sister. "Sorry about her. She has a good heart but can be a bit narcissistic."

"No need to apologize, her heart's in the right place." Yonghee then pulled Yongsun into another hug, which lasted not too long this time. "Also, she has a good reason to be narcissistic, she's very attractive."

"Yonghee!" The ex-guard whined.

"What? She is very attractive, especially in a suit." Yongsun facepalmed at her sister's attraction towards the woman waiting patiently outside the door. Though she couldn't blame her as Byulyi did look very good in a suit. Maybe it was a sister thing. Yonghee noticed a small blush across her sister's face and couldn't help but smirk. "You know I'm right."

"You are okay, but I don't want to talk about her at this moment. I want to talk about us, so tell me why you’re here."

"Talking about your crush on her is a part of our catching up." The eldest sister couldn't help but laugh at the death glare she was receiving from Yongsun. "You're still so easy to read. Good to know that some things haven't changed and I'm here for business. I need to produce a new type of clothing, so I came here for inspiration. Now, as much as I want to know about why you’re here, I want to know more about this Moonbyul first."

The younger Yong whined. "What makes you think I have a crush on her?"

"Easy. You haven't told me you didn't when I said you did, but if you say you don't now, I promise I'll stop." The room became silent for a few minutes as Yongsun didn't say anything but glare at her sister. That however did nothing but make Yonghee laugh even more. "That's all the confirmation I need. Don't worry, I'll stop it at that, but will say that I very much approve."

The ex-guard groaned. "Gosh, I can't believe this is the sister I missed so much."

"Aww, I missed you too." Yonghee laughed. "Now with that taken care of, you care to tell me why you’re here?"

Yongsun was hesitant. Although she rather tell her sister than her finding out for herself and being ashamed, she would rather choose that than see the disappointment in her face when she told her herself. "I can't say it, sorry."

"That's fine," Yonghee reassured. Seeing that her sister was looking guilty. "We might have some catching up to do, but that doesn’t mean we have to spell everything out. Some things are meant to be a secret."

"Yeah... but I can say that Moonbyul isn't the only person with me. I have two other people with me, and I think you would love them too."

Yonghee smiled. "Can't wait to meet them someday."

"I do hope we meet again," Yongsun said. Not sure if they would be able to meet again if anything bad happened to her on their little quest.

However, the older woman didn't seem to understand the meaning of what Yongsun meant. "We can meet up in the city. I have a certain someone there I want you to meet."

Uncertain of her future, hearing the possibility of seeing her sister again and meeting this certain someone filled her with motivation. "Sounds like a plan. For now, I think it's best I go. We're in some sort of rush, so I don't want to keep the others waiting, but I promise to sit down and actually catch up on everything once I finish what I'm doing."

"That's fine. I'm just really happy to know you're at least alive. Just make sure to stay that way."

The ex-guard smiled and pulled her sister in for one last hug. "Only if you do the same." The two let go and Yongsun left the room. The door closing right behind her. She looked around and immediately noticed that Byulyi was nowhere to be found. Worry started to creep up as this is very uncharacteristic of the vampire to just leave when she said that she would stay.

"Maybe she walked back to Wheein and Hyejin.” Yongsun thought to herself. She knew that couldn't be the case, but she hoped it was in order to not think the worst.

She then made her way back, but now anxiety and worry washed over her as there was still no sign of Byulyi anywhere. Hyejin and Wheein were concerned when only Yongsun came back, and it didn’t help with worry written all over the older woman’s face.

“Where’s Byulyi?” Hyejin asked as she made her way to the ex-guard.

“I… don’t know. She went to give me and my sister some space and when I came back to where I last saw her, she was gone.” Yongsun’s stomach started to turn. The chance of something terrible happening to Byulyi, filled her with guilt, she wondered if the vampire tried to call out to her, but she simply couldn't hear her. That made her guilt even worse.

Hyejin and Wheein took notice of Solar's panic and tried to calm her down. “She’ll come back,” Hyejin reassured. “Yeah.” Wheein agreed. “And we can always look for her, she can’t be too far.” The wolf added. The two tried their best to calm her, but nothing they said seemed to reach her.

Wondering what the two could do to cheer up the older woman, Hyejin finally found a possible solution. “If you have something of hers, I can use my magic to track her.” That seemed to have finally gotten the ex guard's attention as she started to search around her body to find any piece of the vampire.

However, she couldn’t find anything, but she does remember the time Byulyi shoved her. “Do things she touched count?”

“Sort of. It can work, but it won’t be a tracking spell. Probably could see about thirty minutes after the action, but that's about it.” Hyejin answered and Yongsun stood up as she took off her cloak.

“Good enough. I didn’t talk too long with my sister, so it might show what happened. “Yongsun said, calming down a bit as she handed the witch her cloak. “Try the back of this.”

Hyejin raised an eyebrow at the ex-guard but didn’t question it with Solar going into full panic mode. She pulled out her book and turned the pages to the needed spell and closed her eyes as she cast the spell.

She was suddenly in a room where two women were pulling away from each other after a hug. She noticed the two to be Solar and her sister. She then realized the contact was from the sister and not from Byulyi at all.

Finding this pointless, she went to pull herself away from the scene to see Wheein and Solar looking at her in anticipation. She looked down as she shook her head. "It sent me back to when you and your sister hugged, not Byulyi."

"She was on the other side of the door behind me. Couldn't you like open doors or something?"

"No. Only the room, the mark was placed. For me to check the other side, the door would need to be open, since I can't open doors."

"Why's that?"

"The spell plays a memory, and the door wasn't open in it, so unless you guys opened a door or were outside, I couldn't check the other side where Byulyi was. I'm sorry. Do you have something else that Byulyi could’ve touched?"

Yongsun thought for a while. Nothing coming to mind until she remembered the time the vampire kissed her hand. Suddenly her face became red as she held out her hand. "Maybe try my hand."

Hyejin was now puzzled as the fear in the older woman's eyes turned into embarrassment. She wasn't however going to say anything about it and held onto the wrist. "Okay."

She then cast the spell again, and this time she was in a hallway.  Byulyi and Yongsun staring at each other and Hyejin understood very well why the older woman was embarrassed. She felt like she was invading something important and wanted to go back but kept her ground and watched.

"As long as there's no stabbing involved, I'll be fine." The vampire spoke, not long after she called out for Solar. The ex-guard apologized, which made Byulyi and Hyejin really wished she could fast forward memories because she was really uncomfortable watching the two. Thankfully, the vampire reminded them why they were at the hotel for and they were back on track, with Solar knocking on the door.

The sister had a heartfelt reunion that made Hyejin wonder how her sisters were doing. She never wanted to leave them, but Wheein needed someone to be with her. She knew her sisters would be fine, but that doesn't make her wonder any less of their whereabouts. The older Yong suggested a little catch-up and when Solar was trying to deny her that, Byulyi shoved the two into the room and closed the door.

She then walked to the wall nearby and leaned against it. For a few minutes, nothing happened and Hyejin worried that the spell would be over before she could find the reason. Suddenly Byulyi looked to her left and became very surprised with what she saw, she ran in the opposite direction of where she looked. The vision starting to fade, Hyejin looked over and saw a man in clothes she could only know was part of the king’s men's clothing.

She was put back to the present with Yongsun and Wheein still staring at her in anticipation. She was about to speak of what she saw, but then a voice from behind the two, caught all three women's attention as they turned to look and were surprised to see Byulyi walking towards them. A bright smile on her face, like she wasn't gone at all, and gave all of them, especially Solar a heart attack.

“Byulyi, you're back!” Yongsun said overjoyed as she ran up to Byulyi and wrapped the vampire in an embrace. She didn’t get to return the hug before the older woman pulled away. “What happened to you? I was worried sick.”

Byulyi sheepishly rubbed the back of her neck. “Sorry, I was busy…pickpocketing some rich .” She lied, hoping that was enough to convince the older woman. Which seemed to work as she got a harsh slap to her shoulder.

“I thought something bad happened to you and all you were doing was pickpocketing?”

“Sorry, I’ll make sure to leave a note the next time I runoff.”

Yongsun sighed. Her anger and worries now subsiding with the vampire's return. She looked at the taller woman's cloak to find a few small tears and even a small amount of blood on it. "What happened to you?"

Byulyi noticed as she looked down. "Oh, that? I... got after someone took notice of me, luckily I was able to give them the slip, but tripped on my way here. Though I think they're still looking for me, so I think we should get the heck out of here as fast as possible."

“Right,” Yongsun said and turned towards the other two. “Is everything ready for us to depart?”

“Sure is,” Wheein answered and led her towards the horses.

Hyejin stayed back and looked at Byulyi with a confused expression. “Why did you lie?”

“I didn’t lie.”

The witch glared at the vampire. “Yes, you did. I saw what happened. You were being chased by one of the king’s men guards, so tell me what really happened?”

The vampire smiled, but instead of giving a proper answer,  only said, “Don’t worry about it. I’m back and that’s all that matters.” She then walked past Hyejin to catch up to Wheesun, who was struggling to put Wheein on one of the horses.

The witch didn’t buy Byulyi’s answer. Something was off with the vampire for some reason, but she didn't why. For now, she decided to keep a close eye on her as she followed suit. Whatever happened when she was being chased must have been the reason for this sudden change and she needed to get to the bottom of this.

Namjoon groaned as he got up. Adjusting his eyes to the bright room he was in. He was pulled into a hug by Seokjin who was crying with happiness. “You finally woke up!” He yelled. The knight smiled and tried to speak but found it difficult with his throat as dry as a desert.

Yoongi caught on and went to give him a cup of water. He gulped all the water in the cup and spoke. “How long have I been out?”

“Three weeks,” Yoongi answered. “Now tell us how you got into a coma?”

Namjoon chuckled. “Straight to the point as always. All I remember was fighting someone after freeing Solar and the three other women and then they threw some dust at me and everything went black.” He tried to remember anything else, but nothing came to mind. “What happened to Solar and the other three?”

“They were able to escape the city if that's what you're wondering,” Jin answered as he finally released Namjoon from his hug. The knight sighed in relief to hear about that. He looked around his room, to find it small with only his bed, two chairs, and a drawer filling in the emptiness. “Were the others too busy working to come visit?”

Both the baker and bartender looked at each other before answering. “Yeah, they're a bit busy trying to capture the four women,” Yoongi answered.

“What?”

“Yeah, Jungkook, Eric, Taehyung, Jimin, and Daeho went to recapture Solar and her friends,” Jin added.

"." Namjoon cursed as he laid back down on his bed. Hopefully, the four are able to evade capture, or Jimin and the others are able to figure out that they were after the wrong people.

A knock on the door, captured the three's attention as they turned their gaze at the door. Entering through the door, stood the king of the kingdom. "I see you're awake now." He spoke. He then turned his gaze at Yoongi and Jin who immediately bowed and gave their respects. "Sorry to ask of this, I know you three are very close and he just woke up, but may I have some privacy to talk to my first in command?"

"Of course, sir," Seokjin spoke. He gave Namjoon a worried look, but with the knight giving him the okay, the two left.

The king watched as the door closed and soon turned his gaze back to Namjoon. "Now unless you want to fill the four women's spot on the guillotine instead, you better tell me what you remember."
