Chapter 14

The Ultimate Weapon

Taehyun was awake again when Gunil came back, sitting up in his bed as he stared out the window. "You're awake," remarked Gunil as he walked over, Taehyun turning to look at him. "I see everything healed just fine too," he hummed, tilting his head to the side.

"Where's Soobin?" Asked Taehyun as he looked towards the door. "He's outside the door right now," answered Gunil. "Are you ready to see him?" He asked. Taehyun turned his gaze back to Gunil before shaking his head. "I think I need to hunt before doing so," he answered. "Right, let me make sure you're ready to be discharged," muttered Gunil before going to do so.

"Is he okay?" Asked Soobin as Gunil left the room, closing the door behind him. "He'll be fine after a hunt," answered Gunil. "I suggest staying at the house for the time being, it's the most familiar place to Taehyun," he added. "Beomgyu and Jiseok will take you there," he said. "I'm not being carried again," Soobin said, scowling which earned an amused smirk from Gunil. "Sure," mumbled Gunil. "Kai's getting released too, I think," he added.

"Poor Kai," mumbled Soobin as he looked towards that room. "I know Beomgyu changed his ways for him, but doing what he did..." He mumbled, turning away. "Hey," Gunil said gently. "Beomgyu blames himself enough, don't blame him more than he already does," he added. "I'll see you there okay? I need to make sure Taehyun's ready to go before we go hunting," he said. "Sure," mumbled Soobin as he headed to Kai's room.

Gunil watched him go before going to talk to a nurse.

Beomgyu looked up at Soobin as he entered the room, having been talking with Kai about where they were going after leaving the hospital. "You still have the key right?" He asked. "Yeah," hummed Soobin as he took out he lanyard from under his shirt before letting it hang around his neck.

"I was going to ask if we could get a car because I need to do laundry," said Soobin as he looked at Jiseok who stood in the corner. "I have one waiting," Jiseok answered, nodding.

"Come on Kai," Beomgyu said gently as he helped Kai stand. "Let's get you to shower and change, okay?" He asked. "We're going home?" Asked Kai as he stood, stumbling slightly and nearly falling if Beomgyu didn't catch him. "Not quite, but we'll be staying with Soobin for a while," answered Beomgyu. "We're going to go on a car ride and then hang out with him for a while," he added. "Oh!" Exclaimed Kai. "I wanna hang out with Soobinnie~!" He almost yelled in excitement.

Soobin fought down an amused snort, hiding it with a cough, at the nickname, giving a thumbs up to Kai as he grinned. "We'll hang out and watch movies okay?" He asked, faking excitement. Kai grinned, nodding excitedly before letting Beomgyu lead him into the bathroom. Soobin went to grab his and Taehyun's laptops and chargers, putting them in the bag he brought over before slinging it over his shoulder and turning to Jiseok.

Jiseok raised an eyebrow as Soobin turned his attention to him. "I don't have a phone, can you let Gunil know we may end up at the laundromat?" Asked Soobin. "He can hear you you know," remarked Jiseok as he tapped his ear. "Enhanced hearing and what not," he added. "Ah," hummed Soobin. "But I'll let him know," hummed Jiseok as he brought out his phone and texted Gunil.

After helping Kai get dressed and getting the discharge papers from a nurse Beomgyu had Kai sit in a wheelchair and wheeled him out of the hospital with Jiseok walking ahead to bring the car and Soobin walking beside Beomgyu. Jiseok pulled up in the car and Beomgyu helped Kai into the backseat, going around and getting into the driver's side back seat. Soobin left without a choice and got into the passenger seat, buckling up after putting his bag on the ground between his legs.

After making sure everyone was comfortable Jiseok drove off, heading towards Gunil's house to get Soobin's and Taehyun's clothes to take to the laundromat.

Gunil and Taehyun left the hospital after Taehyun got changed into some clothes that Soobin had asked Gunil to bring over, the both of them sprinting into the forest to hunt.

Gunil led the way, the both of them coming upon some deer, Gunil tackling one, Taehyun not too far behind as he tackled another one as the herd scattered.

Once they were done they walked at a human's pace back into town, Taehyun in no hurry to head back since he didn't know how he would end up acting around his best friend. Gunil had warned him before they left the hospital that it would take a while of really being around Soobin to get used to being around him in general without the thirst flaring up immediately.

"Um," mumbled Taehyun as he stopped, causing Gunil to turn to look at him as he stopped a few feet in front of him. "Is there a reason why I feel another presence in my mind?" He asked.

Gunil blinked in surprise. "So you were turned into both, huh," he commented as he looked thoughtful. "Wait, so I have a wolf like you do?" Asked Taehyun. "I suppose," responded Gunil. "But we don't know if you'll end up like me," he added. "So I should expect a physical change when it's time for said change, got it," grumbled Taehyun.

"You may be like the other werewolves, who knows," hummed Gunil. "We'll see when your wolf decides its ready to come out," he added.

"Is there advantages you say you'd have?" Asked Taehyun. "There's not many, besides the larger build and such," hummed Gunil. "But being a normal wolf like the other werewolves lets you blend in a bit more when travelling from place to place or you're hunting," he explained.

"I guess that makes sense," hummed Taehyun.

"Come on kid, they went to do laundry," said Gunil as he continued walking. "I'm not a kid," whined Taehyun as he followed after Gunil. "Kid, you were just turned, you're practically a baby now," Gunil mumbled, fighting to keep the amused tone out of his voice. "Uh huh," grumbled Taehyun.

Chapter 1: Alright, let's dive into this review head-first without further adieu hahaha.

So, starting off with your character planning in the foreward, you laid everything out nice and simply for the reader by providing much-needed context as to what happened in the past. Though, I, personally as a writer, wouldn't flat-out tell us, the audience, the major plot twist for chapter one; the fact that Gunil changes his form. That's truly the only "major" critique I can give you as far as the foreward is concerned as you, as I previously said, did a good job.

Chapter one is paced well and is smooth to read and understand, I applaud you for that hahaha. Much like the foreward, I don't have much to truly critique you as far as content is concerned, though I do have a few suggestions to further improve your writing. Try not to use "said" so much, instead try other describing words like exclaimed, informed, or announced. Such a thing might seem like a small tweek, but it'll truly take your writing to the next level and noticeably enhance your work.

Once again, you've got a brilliant start, good work! I'm looking forward to reading the rest of this story as it gets published. :)
