Thoughtlessly, Chanyeol dashed toward Baekhyun in panic, only to be blocked half-way by a tall, slender, yet dangerous-looking figure. A figure that seemed somewhat familiar to Sehun.  Dressed completely in black, with a mask covering its face, the figure addressed Chanyeol and his friends. "What do you think you're doing? Running about like mad animals. Get back in your cells, all of you!" No emotion could be detected in the voice, however, it was evident that the figure was using a voice-changer, so no conclusions could be made based on the lack of emotion. It was a man's voice. A voice that they all recognised. The nameless man. The one who had the vampires use their powers for the good of mankind. Could this really be the same devil that stood before them, preventing Chanyeol to tend to his lover?

It was evident that the 'nameless man' was nothing in comparison to the clan of furious vampires. That was, until he pulled out a gun from behind his back. Sehun was in a momentary state of shock, but Luhan managed to quickly soothe him by gripping his hand tightly and tossing the gun aside using his mind. He then did what everyone was anticipating: using psychokinesis, he gradually peeled back the black mask that the figure wore, and deposited it into his waiting hand.

Sehun was struck dumb; his pretty mouth hung open in astonishment (even wider than everyone else's.)

The 'nameless man' was indeed a woman. An ahjumma. A young-ish, reasonably attractive ahjumma. While everyone stared in shock at the woman, and the woman stared back in equal shock, Chanyeol took the chance to get close to Baekhyun. He cradled him in his arms, attaching himself to him.

At last, Sehun managed to stutter a word. "U... U- Umma?"

The woman moved closer to Sehun, but he responded by hiding behind Luhan, a mistified look plastered across his face.

"Sehun... I can explain..." She moved even closer, looking disgusted while her gaze settled on Luhan. "Sehun!" She snapped when he didn't start walking towards her. "Get away from these people! No - they're not even people. They're monstrous beasts!"

Sehun cowered behind Luhan, grasping his adorable boyfriend's right hand and latching on to the back of his shirt. Quivering, he finally spoke. "B- but, I like them. They took care of me." And with that, he buried his head into the back of Luhan's neck and clutched at him, occasionally sliding his hand down the front of Luhan's shirt.

Sehun's umma's voice softened when she spoke next. "They're dangerous, Sehun. You're staying here with me from now on - away from these barbarians!"

He lost it. It was simply too much for him. He held on to Luhan so tightly he almost suffocated him! "I won't leave them!" He shrieked disobidiently at his umma. But Luhan knew that she would never let Sehun go with them; he knew she would stop at nothing. "Sehunnie..." He whispered into his ear. "Stay with her." Sehun's eyes widened at the request and his hands gripped onto the bottom of his shirt obstinately. Luhan moved even closer to him  and his whisper was so soft and gentle that it was almost consumed by the silence. "I'll come back for you once we figure something out. Wo ai ni - that means 'I love you.' " He added when he saw the confused expression on Sehun's face.

Although his umma was aware that she had been defeated, she would not give up trying to destroy the vampires. "You've won the battle, but you have by no means won the war. Now get out! Before I change my mind and kill you right here on the spot!"

Smirking, Kris muttered "As if you'd be able to do that." Baekhyun slyly crawled over to Chanyeol and wrapped his arms around his neck, embracing him. Luhan stole a quick glance from Sehun, before the maknae walked over to stand beside his umma solemnly.

The last thing he saw was his group of friends, his boyfriend, standing in a line, holding on to one another - Wu Fan and Tao's fingers intertwined, Chanyeol hugging Baekhyun, Kai's hand in Kyungsoo's, Minseok attached to Yixing, Suho's fingers interlocked with Jongdae's, and Luhan. "I love you too, Luhan." He breathed. The moment they faded from the dismal, apple white room, Sehun's soul shattered into a million pieces like a pulverized mirror.
