There will be some TW's here, so proceed carefully. Also, slightly long chapter ahead!Σ(°△°|||)︴


The plan is simple. First off, they have to track down the werewolf that has the amulet wrapped in its neck which radiates off a powerful aura. Secondly, they need to wait until the werewolf travels back to the base where they can figure if Jongho's father is currently hiding. 

However, there may be complications that could intrude on their mission such as they cannot be assured that Jongho's father is in the base since the amulet would be a dead giveaway unless they have a plan for it or the enemy is too powerful for them to fight with.

Now that everything is all planned out, they are all gathering and getting ready for the fight that they need to win. It is the only way to truly free Jongho from its restraints, or else his father will keep hunting Jongho down over and over again.

"Hey." San slipped beside Yeosang, his hand naturally falling on top of his. "We're going to be okay." He reassured, giving a squeeze on his hand as comfort. Yeosang smiled back, turning his hand to lace his fingers with San.

"I know. I'm just a bit worried for..." He looked down on his lap, "...for you and Woo." San turned his body towards him, letting go of Yeosang's hand, and instead cupped both of his cheeks. 

"We're strong. We won't let anything get in our way." He leaned forward to press a soft kiss on the forehead. "Don't worry much, darling. After this, we'll all be free and happy." Yeosang smiled, his eyes fluttering shut at the warmth that filled his chest.

"Would you look at that, my favorite people in the world are having such heartfelt conversation." They both turned to Wooyoung, laughing as he pretends to wipe a tear out of his eye. 

"Shut up and join us." Wooyoung brightly grinned and leaped towards his two mates. At that time, Yeosang truly felt loved and secured. 

He let himself be embraced before a couch interrupted their moment. They turned to see Hongjoong looking over them with a stern look on his face, however, the emotion ranging in his eyes says otherwise. He looked at them with adoration and happiness but that soon changed when he remembered the plan at hand. 

"Let's go." Hongjoong nodded at them then turned his back for them to follow. Yeosang took a deep breath, turning to San and left a peck on his cheek, then he turned to Wooyoung and did the same.

"Good luck out there," Yeosang said, separating himself from them. "I'll see you soon." With that, he disappeared in thin air and left Wooyoung and San alone.

Yeosang used his invisibility to track down the werewolf which is deemed to be easy since the amulet is giving off very powerful magic. He is assured that he doesn't have any scent lingering on him, yet he still took precautions and used a potion that has been made by Yunho to remove any other scents that may linger.

'It's a golden sun.' Yeosang described, eyeing the necklace that the werewolf is wearing. 'And also it has a light pinkish gem in the middle of some sort.' 

'A light pink gem?  It could be plenty of things like a diamond perhaps? or a pink sapphire...' Yunho trailed off, '...Hwa says that it could be a morganite, could you describe it some more?'

Yeosang thought of the words to describe it, he is definitely not an expert at this kind of things. 'It's pale pink?'

'It could be a morganite, it instills calm and stability. While the shape that you said, a sun right? It means revival.'  Yunho further analyzed it, his fingers flipping over the books that he stored away in his home. 'It could be one of the reasons to attract daevas. Does it not have anything else in there?'  He stepped more closer to the werewolf, making sure that he is off the ground so that he won't accidentally bump into that werewolf. That's when he caught sight of something written behind the necklace. If the front is a sun and a gem, the back is a flat surface with something written on it.

'There's something written on the back, but I couldn't see all that much.' Yeosang stepped a bit more closer, 'It's a... it's written in red? and a...' He almost bumped onto the werewolf when it suddenly halted his movements. He looked at the werewolf confusingly, to see it staring back at him... Wait, staring back at him?

"It is nice meeting you again, guardian angel." His nostrils filled with the disgusting stench of death, the same scent that he has described Jongho's father. He turned around, his body freezing up at seeing the very devil himself looking at him. "Your invisibility does not work on us."

"How...?" 

He was sure that he won't get caught, however, he is proved wrong when something held him down forcefully. He struggled on the restraints, his eyes looking around to see if he can see the force that is weighing him down.

'Yunho? Hwa?!' Yeosang tried calling out, yet nothing came back. 'Yunho?! Hwa?! Answer me!' 

"It's no use." He stilled, not expecting to face one of such disastrous events. However, he still has little hope. He remembered Yunho giving him a small bottle, which is clasped in a chain bracelet under his sweatshirt. 

He subtly tried to reach for it, struggling to move his arms against the hands of the shadows that are holding him down. He kept eye contact with Jongho's father, suddenly halting his movements when a shocking reveal happened in front of him.

His eyes widen, watching as it's flesh melted into nothing but a puddle underneath where Jongho's father stood. There was still little flesh stuck on the black rotting skeleton in front of him, a rusting silver armor covering its body. He gulped, wanting to scramble back as it's hollow eyes meets his, the cracking sound of its jaw resounding the whole room as it cracks a smile at him.

"Have you heard of my kind?" Yeosang felt himself getting weaker and weaker but he doesn't know the reason why. Perhaps, something is holding him down but he can't really tell. He hadn't felt something injected in him neither does he touched something that he shouldn't have.

"A draugr." Yeosang weakly hissed. "A rotten revenant." 

"Right, right." A chuckle left his lips, "Do you know the reason why we have come back?"

"What do you mean?"

"We return from the dead to guard our treasure and hunt those that stole from our tomb." Yeosang's eyebrows furrowed in confusion, not knowing where this is going. "Do you have any idea what you and your friends have stolen?"

"J-jongho?"

"You are correct with that, young one." He walked towards Yeosang, his skeletal hand meeting his chin and forcing him to look directly at the blackened eyes, that seems to have something burning inside.

"You are taking Jongho away and I do not like getting my treasure stolen." Yeosang felt fury inside of him, thinking of the times that Jongho got abused because of the man standing in front of him.

"You don't get to call him a treasure." He spat, "You had done nothing but ruin his life. How do you expect him to stay?"

"You don't understand." His hand clasped Yeosang's cheeks, tightly that it might leave a bruise. "He was trying to escape."

"Of course he would." He once again moved around from the restraints pulling him down. "He hates you!"

San gasped, his hand flying up to grasp his wrist. Wooyoung suddenly took hold of him and held him in place with worry and concern visible in his eyes.

"What is it?" Wooyoung asked, his eyebrows scrunching then he felt it, the burning sensation that is clawing on his arms. He winced at the pain, biting down his lips to avoid letting out a noise that might attract someone.

They are currently waiting for a sign to make their move. As the plan stated, they will follow after Yeosang with Hongjoong. When that executes, they will hunt down the black altar then destroy it so that they won't have to worry for one more. While they are doing that, Yunho and Seonghwa will be in charge of protecting Jongho whilst Mingi move in to take advantage of the distraction then rip off the amulet that Yeosang had described. 

"Yeosang..." San shared a look with Wooyoung, "Yeosang! He's in trouble!" They scrambled onto their feet, only to be stopped by Hongjoong.

"You can't go in there yet!" Hongjoong blocked them, "We can't let this plan fall throug-"

"Did I hear right?" Jongho looked up towards them, "He's in trouble? Is he hurt? It's all my fault..."

"Bubs, no..." Yunho held Jongho's hands, Mingi moving in to sweep Jongho in his arms. "It's not your fault, it's your father's."

"But..."

"No buts, our Joongie." Mingi pecked Jongho's cheeks, relishing at the red hue that covered his cheeks. "We'll get Yeosang out in no time, he's smart and strong enough to get out of there."

"I'm not going to stand by." Wooyoung persisted, "I'm sorry but I have to get Yeosang here even if it means failing the plan." He stepped out and passed Hongjoong with a speed that they almost missed. 

Hongjoong grabbed Wooyoung's wrist, turning him around with a glare on his face. "It will put him in more danger." He hissed at Wooyoung, but the latter did not hesitate to rip the hand grasping his wrist.

"I will not hesitate to save my mate. I do not condemn my mate getting hurt by a monster." Wooyoung snarled, his fangs coming in full view as his eyes turn a bloody red. San took a step forward and blocked Wooyoung from Hongjoong's sight.

"Calm down." San silently hugged Wooyoung, "We won't let that happen." Wooyoung nodded, pulling away then taking off.

Wooyoung and San could not stand having to be on the sidelines as their mate gets hurt, they truly do not allow such a thing to happen. When Wooyoung ran full speed, San could only give Hongjoong a look that could only be described as apologetic before taking off after Wooyoung.

"I have more control over them than you, go stay with these three and protect them." Seonghwa placed his hand on Hongjoong's shoulder, gently squeezing it out of reassurance then smiling at him. "We'll be fine." Seonghwa softly placed a peck on his lips, then followed after the two mates.

"What are we going to do?" Jongho looked as if he's going to storm inside and beat the shit out of his father, which would definitely not be the best course of action. "Hyung is... He..."

"Jongho, you don't have to worry," Yunho said, although he also felt terrified at the thought of having Yeosang in danger. "We have to get you out of here first." They were still at Yunho's home, but it could potentially put all of them in danger especially that the place that Yeosang discovered seems too close for their own liking. They had put on a tracker on Yeosang, together with the small bottle that could heal him.

"Let's take him to Yeosang's home, he has a safe room inside his house," Hongjoong told them and they moved onto their feet. "Don't use any of your powers, it will give off a radar to other supernaturals." Yunho and Mingi nodded, keeping their hold on Jongho tightly as they maneuver their way to Yeosang's home.

As they are on their way, Yunho suddenly froze and halted everyone's movements since they are holding onto one another with Jongho held in the middle, Mingi on the left, Yunho on the right, and Hongoong at the back.

"Yunho?"

"Hyung... Go..." Mingi stepped forward, "Go!" His eyes flashed white, pouncing forward to Mingi with threatening sharp claws growing on his nails.

"Jongho... Get him out of here, Hyung!" Mingi shouted, pushing Yunho away with a wince at having to hear a scream of pain from Yunho. "Go! I'll deal with Yunho." Hongjoong hesitated, taking Jongho's wrist then scooping him up in his arms to run full speed and away from the controlled friend of theirs.

"Yunho, love." He carefully eyed Yunho, who is currently on the ground whimpering in pain. "Yunho..." He scrambled on his feet and dug his claws on Mingi's shoulders. Mingi let out a shout, his black wings coming out of his back in a sense of danger then pulling out a force to throw Yunho on a wall.

His eyes widen at the sudden action, running towards Yunho even when he's going rogue, he still has to check him to make sure he's not injured. Yunho looked up at Mingi with pleading eyes.

"Mi-Ming-gi." He looked scared as if begging for Mingi to stay away from him. "Go, I- Can't- can't control, can't control my-myself." Mingi shook his head, holding his hand out to take Yunho, however that plan soon vanished as Yunho stood up and stabbed his claws in his chest. Mingi gasped, his shaky hand taking hold of Yunho's wrist then looking down where the claws are currently passing by his body.

"Yun-Yunnie." Mingi coughed out blood, smiling weakly at Yunho. "I-I love you." Yunho's eyes went back to normal, his whole face contorting to shock and fear.

"Mingi! Mingi... Mingi!" He pulled the claws out, his tears running down continuously. "Mingi, no, no, love. I'm sorry. I'm sorry..." When Mingi's body lurched itself forward in Yunho's arms, Yunho could not do anything but hold Mingi close to him, his arms tightening.

"Wooyoung!" San called out, running after Wooyoung who kept dodging the attacks of the shadowy figures surrounding them. They were not being on the careful side when Wooyoung barged inside of the base, his head full of his worried thought of an injured Yeosang. It did not help as the burning sensation spread like wildfire on their whole body and further weakening them as well. "Wooyoung, your back!" San is currently fighting off a werewolf that is twice as powerful as him. He couldn't let his guard down, however, when he took a glimpse of the fighting Wooyoung, he saw that the other is struggling more than he is.

"Die!" San hissed as holy water placed itself on him, shooting a glare on Seonghwa who has the bottle in his hand. "It got rid of the daevas." Seonghwa shrugged, sending San an apologetic look.

"You moron! They are immune to anything!" Seonghwa's eyes widen, stumbling on his steps when he saw the daevas holding Wooyoung down. "Just go, hyung! Save Yeosang!" Seonghwa almost turned, but he stopped when he saw the werewolf holding a knife up in the air to stab Wooyoung from behind.

"I have to save both of you too," Seonghwa said, running up to take the attack that Wooyoung is supposed to take. "We'll both get out of here first, together." He spoke so lightly as if he isn't stabbed in the shoulder.

Swiftly, Yeosang raised his foot and kicked the skeletal body in front of him. However, he couldn't attempt to let himself free from the daevas holding him down as he feels his body getting drained.

With his weakening strength. He used up all his power to drag his right hand and open the bottle that Yunho gave him, to take at least a drop of liquid but before he could even try. A boot came crashing down to break the bottle into pieces. It's glass shards piercing into Yeosang's wrist as Jongho's father harshly stepped on the wrist down on the floor.

"You think I'm stupid?" A hand made it's way on his throat, squeezing that it made Yeosang wheeze at his air getting cut off. "You won't get away as easily."

"Y-you got- got th-that wrong." Yeosang squeezed out, a slight smirk on his face although his eyes tell a different story. "Fuck you." A crash resonated throughout the room, making Yeosang get thrown on the floor. He coughed harshly, breathing in to take a puff of air before his eyes wandered around where the crash came from.

"What did you do?!" The draugr stood with panicked eyes, his eyes flickering at the shadows that surrounded him however the panic all disappeared. "Fools." He laughed, his hand placing itself on its chest, where it is most likely the necklace that is controlling the daevas is placed.

"You're the foolish one here." Yeosang heard a very similar voice. Jongho. Yeosang scrambled to his feet, watching as the shadows went towards Jongho with lightning speed.

"Jongho!" Yeosang held his hand up, watching as Jongho get lifted by the daevas. He has to do something! Where are the others?! Why did Jongho go here?!

Yeosang closed his eyes, clenching his fist and using his remaining energy to save Jongho. Fuck it.

The blinding light filled the room, voices circled him as his hand raised itself towards heaven. He could sense everything around him as if he is in slow motion. He could feel the daevas moving to lift Jongho in the air, he could feel someone crying and hugging someone close, he could feel four people fighting daevas and werewolves. He could catch a whiff of a scent of blood that belongs to Seonghwa, Hongjoong, San, and Mingi.

He has no choice, they are all in a vulnerable state and one mission he has is going to fail if he does not finish all of this now. He has to save Jongho and keep him safe, he also has to save his friends and his mates. His mates... They most likely felt the pain Yeosang is experiencing, he doesn't want them to suffer anymore.

Yeosang once read that when a mate dies, they are to be fallen into a depressing bubble. They never get to be happy and could be driven in killing themselves. He doesn't want that, his life is at risk and if ever his life does end here, he doesn't want his mates to suffer.

"To the heavens above, I fearfully remove myself to be in contact with this world. I will lose rights to be with my other half, and further, be in the depths of the darkness as I erase a part of me." Yeosang took a deep breath, turning his head to make eye contact with Jongho's father who does not seem to be affected by the bright light, he pointed upwards, flickering light of burning flames appearing above his pointer finger.

"Burn." His eyes drastically changed to blue, the bright glow filling his pupils. A fire majestically appeared underneath the draugr, the blue flames preventing his escape. "You have made too many sins. May you be punished with neverending torture." He stretched his arms, the sound of the floor cracking open as it devoured the burning draugr underneath.

"No! No! You will not get away with this!" The draugr increased its size to stop itself from fitting in the crack, Yeosang did not hesitate to push open the gates of hell then let a light shoot out of his palm towards the draugr. The draugr screamed, its fingers digging itself where the light hits him as his size deflates and he is fully thrown in hell.

"And those who have sinned." Yeosang's hair slowly turned pink, he let his wings fly open and emit light inside the room. "Shall perish." He focused on letting light flood in the whole base, where he could hear the daevas screaming as the light burn them to death. He could also feel werewolves dropping down on the ground, paralyzed and turning into nothing but ashes. As soon as he felt no evil spirits lingering in the area that he filled in. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

"Heal." He could feel the pain crashing into him at once, almost making him stumble on his feet but he did not waver at healing and giving strength to his injured mates and friends.

The light vanished in the room, his eyes making their way on Jongho which is on the floor, groaning at the sudden fall from having to remove the grasp of the daevas lifting him to the floor.

"Thank you, Jongho." Yeosang smiled, and before Jongho could even take a step towards him, the angel's eyes rolled back then everything went black.
