📛Better off alone📛

Namjoon frowned. It wasn't exactly a frown. It was just how he normally looked. His 'normal face'. For many humans it was as if he was angry or frustrated, but Namjoon was simply thinking.

When you've lived a life as a shapeshifter a lot more is asked from him than he hoped. His parents for example. They were humans, that's what they wanted to believe. When they hoped Namjoon would be either one of them or a combination, they never expected such a problematic child.

The first time when his mother got angry with him was when he was three. Namjoon remembers it clearly. How his mother scolded him for breaking the vase and how he got lucky it didn't cut him. But when Namjoon began to cry, his mother widened her eyes in fear.

Her son's body had begun to morph into something... non-human. A small baby unicorn laid there on the carpet, crying and shaking his head widely. His mother watched in absolute horror as the horn began to glow a bright gold, but it soon died down when his father picked him up and hugged him.

He had begun to transform back to his human form. From that moment they realized that their son was a shapeshifter.

Namjoon had trouble. In school people made fun of him. That was how he realized that he could be dangerous.

A grin spread on Namjoon's lips at the memory. How he had transformed into a Siren. He didn't even know what it was at that time, but they followed him. They never said a word. They swooned over him.

Girls that would bow down to him whenever he wanted it, boys bringing him whatever he wanted. He felt like a king.

High school got more difficult. They weren't impressed by his voice anymore, so he had to scare them. The only thing he came up with was a dragon or dark magic.

He set parts of the school on fire. It worked. Most of the students feared him for what he was. Others were unfazed by it. There was one guy who Namjoon liked. The demon... I think he told him.

Yes, a Merman... Namjoon smiled at the thought. The only one who he could talk to. By accident he had killed him of anger, burning his skin with the heat of a spirit.

Namjoon got thrown out at an early age. His parents were afraid of him. Afraid of what he'd do if his emotions got out of control.

But that was then. Now-Namjoon is a grown-up. He grew more dangerous over the years. His anger quickly took hold of him. Annoyance got to him as easily as ever.

He growled and ripped out of his skin as he ran towards society. He growled threateningly as he slowly walked through the city. Many humans screamed or avoided him. It wasn't usual of course to see a giant wild wolf in the streets of Seoul.

His paws moved on their own it seemed, walking towards a lone man who didn't even seem to care about his presence. It was time to make him known.

He growled loudly and sunk his sharp canines into the human flesh, ripping him apart mercilessly. He grinned to himself when he heard humans scream and run away from him.

He ran towards someone else, pulling their limbs off and eating their flesh and skin. The delicious taste of their anxiety and fear was the best to him.

And then to think that his parents raised him well.

Namjoon growled loudly. He was here. He would make that known. His meal was here too. He would enjoy that. He smirked to himself, letting sharp teeth grow and dark wings from his back, his human body returning as he flew up high, only to shot his body back down onto some woman who was too drunk to even notice the shapeshifter.

Namjoon sunk his sharp teeth into her skin and ripped it off her flesh, ripping the flesh off her bones and happily eating it up like a wild beast.

Some would stay still, unfazed by the hostile creature. One of those was simply tilting his head towards the flying shapeshifter. His silver hair fell over one of his eyes, the mask on his mouth covering the bottom half of his face. The man standing next to him didn't bother to hide. His own pitch-black hair was parted to the left, his bottom lip being bitten on by one of his sharp white fangs.

"What's up with him?" The silver-haired asked. "I don't know. But he's stealing our dinner." The black-haired hissed.

Namjoon growled again as he ripped someone else to little pieces. His body filled with adrenaline with every victim as he eventually picked the wrong person from the crowd.

The black-haired hissed loudly when he hit the wall, inhaling sharply. If he wasn't a vampire his back would have been broken. He hissed at Namjoon, his fangs out on full display and his red eyes piercing through Namjoon's amber eyes.

"Watch who you pick!" He snarled. "Aish... Jin hyung is going to be so mad at me once I explain this..." He mumbled. The silver-haired hissed loudly, jumping on Namjoon's back. "Let go of him!" He yelled.

Namjoon, with ease, managed to throw the silver-haired vampire off him. "Don't tell me what to do." Namjoon growled, his wings disappearing into his back, hissing at them with his own fangs.

"Taehyung! I could have easily saved myself!" The black-haired whined. "I want some action too." Taehyung crossed his arms. "It's not always Jungkook-time you know!"

Namjoon hissed loudly, ignoring their useless arguing and running back to sink his fangs into someone else.

Jungkook frowned. "Is this a problem we should tell hyung about?" "Probably." Taehyung sighed. The two shared a glance before running towards their home in the purest of panic, yelling for their hyungs.

"Jin hyung! Hyung! Hyung!" Jungkook shrieked. Jin growled at him in return. "What now?" He spat. "Okay, so, there is this crazy hostile shapeshifter who is murdering out meals!" Jungkook whined. Jin rolled his eyes. "So then kill your meals before they can."

"Yeah, but he attacked Jungkook..." Taehyung mumbled. Jin abruptly looked up from his work. "He attacked Jungkook?" He growled lowly. Jungkook nodded. "But I could save myself. I have to admit that he is unusually handsome. He must have been a Siren for most of his life or something close to the luring kind."

Jin gripped the knife tightly in his hands, slamming it into the cutting board. "He's a dead shapeshifter by the time I'm done with him." He snarled. "Jimin!" He yelled. Jimin sighed. "I heard it. I'm coming with." He growled annoyed.

Yoongi cracked his head to the side. "Haven't eaten yet. Might as well join." He grinned. Hoseok pecked his lips shortly. "Be careful." He smiled. Yoongi returned him a smile. "I will. Do you need anything?" Hoseok shook his head. "I've eaten yesterday. You know I can go a few days."

Yoongi nodded. "I was just asking." Hoseok smiled. "Be safe. All of you." "Will be." Taehyung said happily. Hoseok waved them goodbye as Yoongi pecked his cheek one more time before flying up into the air.

"I'm hungry for some flesh, no stupid shapeshifter is taking that from me." Yoongi growled. "Follow up or die behind." Jungkook hissed, ripping out his skin. Taehyung smiled, jumping on top of wolf-Jungkook's fluffy back. "Onwards!"

Jungkook sighed deeply, smiling and shaking his head before running towards the crime scene. Yoongi flew towards it, his spring-green eyes quickly observing his surroundings. He growled loudly, pinning the shapeshifter and flying straight up.

Namjoon hissed loudly, wings ripping from his back one again. "Let go of me!" He growled. "Not when you're taking my food away!" Yoongi snarled. Jimin growled at Namjoon before pinching his chest. "What the hell do you think you're doing?!" He yelled.

Jin hesitantly landed on the streets. The humans who hid watched with disbelief. "You should be afraid." Jin started. "You are our food after all. But some of us take it too far." He chuckled. "Tonight, we will save your lives in return for four of your people." He grinned.

Taehyung pinched his ear, causing Jin to whine. "Shut up." He hissed. He looked up at the four flying creatures. Only then he realized that this is chaotic.

His eyes widened when Jungkook roughly got slammed against the wall of an apartment complex, a loud crack of the building running through his ears.

Anger rushed through his veins, his eyes filling up with a bright orange as his breathing quickened. He yelled loudly, hissing threateningly. He held his hand out towards the unknown shapeshifter, watching as he yelled in pain of his wings fading in the flames.

Namjoon roared as he ripped out of his skin again, landing on his four paws with a loud growl towards them. "What is wrong with all of you?!" He yelled, his ears fully laying in his neck and his canines on full display.

Yoongi growled back at him. "You're eating our food." "You know that we also have to eat." Jungkook hissed, his wings folding back into his spine and his fangs regaining their sharpness.

Namjoon frowned. "So?! I have to eat too!" "But one or two is enough." Jimin said lowly. "Not twenty or thirty." Namjoon growled. "Humans hurt me! They must endure the fear I lived with growing up." He snarled.

"Than come with us." Jin tilted his head at him with a smile. "We won't hurt you." Namjoon growled. "That's what they all said!" "But we mean it." Taehyung said softly, his eyes regaining their normal red color.

Namjoon growled loudly as he took his normal form, his own grey eyes staring at all the five creatures in front of him. He shook on his legs, his anger rising and yet having no urge to tear them apart.

"How do I know you're not lying to me?" He asked trembling. Yoongi smiled kindly when an unknown presence held his hand. A warm innocent presence. "We are all immortals. We all hunt on humans like you do. We are different, and yet we are not." Hoseok spoke gently.

"If we look at your past, it probably wasn't that good. You've been comforted, maybe even mocked for fun. But no one told you to trust or to love. We are living a double life, and it isn't easy. The fact that you can effortlessly shift into all those creatures leaves me baffled." Hoseok said softly.

Namjoon frowned. "I've been hurt from my childhood. My parents didn't want me, at school I was picked on." He gritted his teeth. "Why am I even telling you this?!" He yelled. "Because you can trust us!" Jimin yelled back.

"Please... Just listen to us. What's your name?" Yoongi asked. Namjoon growled at him. "Kim Namjoon." "Well Namjoon, if you go with us, we can explain you everything. After that, you can decide if you want to stay or not." Hoseok smiled.

Namjoon scoffed. "And what makes you think I'll do that?" "Nothing, but I assume that the cops are going to take you in any minute now." Jungkook smirked. Namjoon sighed, the sirens slowly approaching closer. "Fine." He spat.

Hoseok smiled. "Let's go." He spread his wings, flying up and waiting for the others. Taehyung and Jungkook sped towards their home while Namjoon tried to keep up with their speed.

He still didn't trust them. His instinct said to kill them, and if they wasted his time he was sure to do that.

Hoseok let them all in, smiling at Namjoon. He didn't return any sign of happiness or thankfulness. He just wanted to go back outside. Yoongi settled down on the couch with a relieved sigh. "I didn't eat but that was exhausting." He whined.

Jungkook rolled his shoulder. "Aish... I might have to get it popped back in place." He said softly. "You're a strong fella Namjoon." He chuckled. Namjoon growled. He didn't touch anything, he didn't sit down. It wasn't his way of doing things.

"Take a seat." Hoseok offered him. Namjoon shook his head. "I'd rather not." He snarled. "How so?" Jin asked. "I... like standing up." Namjoon said hesitantly. "It makes me feel better."

Hoseok shrugged. "As you wish." "I wish to leave." Namjoon growled. "You're here and you agreed." Taehyung chuckled. Jimin nodded in agreement. "It's true." Namjoon's eye twitched slightly. "If I wasn't controlling myself right now I'd be on all of you, ripping you to shreds and drinking your blood like a feast."

"That's my kind of party." Jungkook smirked. "Lots, and lots of blood." He licked his lips. Taehyung elbowed him. "Stop tempting me." He hissed. Namjoon scoffed at them. "Fools..."

"So, tell us about your story." Hoseok smiled. Namjoon hissed. "No." "Why not?" Yoongi asked. "I don't trust you." "You are in our house." Jimin grinned. Namjoon's upper lip raised slightly in annoyance, showing a part of his sharp fang. "Don't. Tempt. Me."

Hoseok smiled. "Will it make you feel better if we started first?" Namjoon shrugged. "Whatever." Hoseok smiled again. "Than I'll start."

"My name is Jung Hoseok, I'm an angel. I have a lovely sister who is four years older than me. She lives alone in Heaven currently, I haven't seen her in almost five years because of a bond I made with Yoongi by accident. We got send down to Earth and so we started our long, long battles of arguments. I'm almost 268 years old and I'm an angel of innocence."

Namjoon tilted his head. "An angel living with demons, a ripper and vampires?" Hoseok chuckled. "What can I say? I'm not all good inside. I have had a few... times with Yoongi. I kinds liked watching him rip humans apart. Is that bad?" He asked Jin, who shrugged. "Don't know, don't care." He chuckled.

"I'm Kim Seokjin. Human before getting turned by Jimin. Been a demon for about almost a year. I'm 26 years old... I'm also known as Jin, worldwide handsome, and hyung." He finished. "I guess that's it."

Yoongi scoffed. "So much for an introduction." Jimin growled at him. "Let him. He hasn't gotten an exciting life as a human." Yoongi chuckled. "Humans..."

He leaned back. "Min Yoongi, official Ripper since birth. Forced into male behavior since baby. I have an older brother, Junki... had an older brother. I was on point of execution when that angelic idiot saved me. We bonded. He broke my patience and barrier and now we're here. I'm his boyfriend so you better stay away, or else.." He playfully showed his razor-sharp flesh-tearing teeth.

Namjoon rolled his eyes, unfazed by his threat. "So... My name is Park Jimin, I'm a demon and I have been ever since I was three. I'm 24 years old and got turned by accident by some sort of creep. When I found out I left the house to learn on my own. I met Jin at my job. We became good friends and so we lived together. Now we're a couple and I'm still teaching him things." Jimin smiled.

"I am Jeon Jungkook. A very young vampire shape-shifter hybrid, a blood shifter. I met Taehyung in a bar and by accident... we took it far..." "You had sex?" Namjoon asked, raising an eyebrow. Jungkook nodded. "I accidentally turned him and left. When I saw him after he was changed I fell like a brick." Jungkook smiled.

Taehyung smiled. "My name is Kim Taehyung. I'm an elemental vampire, thinks Jungkookie, and I'm currently 22 years old. I still don't know how to control the elements, but I have a bit of control over my fangs. I used to have an abusive boyfriend who also used me to sell more drugs. Now I'm not more than just a pretty face." He smirked.

Namjoon frowned. "Do I have to?" "It'll help us understand why you do this." Hoseok answered. Namjoon scoffed lowly. "Don't think that it'll help me."

"I'm Kim Namjoon. You knew that. I'm 25 years old and a shapeshifter from birth in a family of angels. No one liked me for my ability. Some jocks would even pull my hair to see if it would stretch into fur ever since I used my wolf-form in gym. So I became a siren. The whole year I was a siren, so people would listen to me. But I felt powerful. I kept doing it. In high school though, it didn't work. I had to scare them. So I did. I became dangerous. I killed innocents with my bare hands, I killed my parents with my own teeth. And I liked it."

His tone was low and husky. He was mad. Yoongi tilted his head. "Because no one liked you, you turned into a siren, and then you scared your classmates and killed your family?" He asked. Namjoon nodded. "I felt powerful to know that humans fear me."

Jin sighed. "Why don't you just stay here? We can help." Namjoon shook his head. "You can't." He walked to the door, turning one last glance towards them. "I'm better off alone."

Namjoon shut the door, walking away. Into the dark. Where he belonged. He was better off alone, where he couldn't hurt anyone but himself. He was free, and such a dangerous man shouldn't be with such innocent creatures.

He was better off alone.
Like he always has been.

Alone.

Alone..

Alone...

The End

Unexpected wasn't it?
