Hana has visited a city only once before and that city had been ridiculously small compared to Columbus. The towers of the industrial district spat out black smoke, which covered and colored the whole sky. “Everything seems so depressing.” Hana whispered as she looked around with big eyes. The houses looked like they were crying, with big, black windows and trails of rain and dirt running down at the edges.

“Well, it is depressing. What do you expect?” Kai asked while he let Ty soar up into the sky. Hana didn't know what she actually expected, but surely not that. There was a small noise, and Changmin immediately pulled her behind his body. “Who's there?” It was the voice of a woman, who stepped out of the darkness. She wore torn clothes, her hair and face dirty; her eyes wide in fear.

Luhan narrowed his eyes, but Chanyeol already took care of the situation. He laid his hand on her forehead, and she flinched under the sudden touch. “Forget that you have ever seen us.” The woman closed her eyes, sighed, and suddenly turned around and walked away. “Forget... forget...” She whispered, before she disappeared into the shadows of the houses again.

Changmin once told her that Vampires could manipulate and even erase the memory of a human, but she has never seen him do that once. It was even possible that a Vampire could manipulate a Vampire's mind and memory, but for that, a Vampire had to be incredibly powerful. “That's odd.” Sehun muttered, his eyes slightly narrowed. Before Hana could ask, Lay already answered her question, “Usually we can sense a human presence, or even smell it at least, but there was nothing.”

Shudders ran down your spine as she realized what he was trying to say. “Someone sent her here on purpose.” Kai nodded, his eyes looking around suspiciously. “Another Vampire,” Luhan said. He sent out his presence and searched the surroundings with his senses. He suddenly let out a hiss, which startled Hana, but the other presence disappeared immediately. “He was watching us.”

It angered Luhan that he hasn't noticed the presence, not because he couldn't, but because he was careless. “Let's go, do not waste time,” Changmin suddenly grabbed her hand and started to walk through the small streets in a fast pace. “We will be on the main street in a few seconds. You know what you have to do,” he sounded hectic and suddenly let go of her hand. “We will see each other in a few minutes.” He smiled, before he disappeared. Another hand suddenly wrapped around her wrist and with wide eyes, she stared at Lay.

He suddenly slowed down as they walked onto the main street. Bright lights welcomed her and music playing silently i
