Jisung almost collapsed on the floor, he held the wall to support himself from falling since the vampire scream was able to put him down the edge... He has always been weak and the less he does his usual routine the less stamina he would lose.

He hasn't eaten anything for days and he's barely keeping it up with the serum Minho provides him yet the hunger was still there eating him from the inside.

He managed to reach to the throne room where he finds no body but to his luck, there was a table full of food and he rush towards it with saliva dropping from his mouth, hunger controlling him like a beast as he finished the table in less than five minutes but jisung was still hungry and wanted more.

“well, look at who came to face me” jisung heard a double voice reaching his ears and upon looking at his mother the queen, she was almost turned into a gargoyle, the left side of her head, neck and shoulders were still processing to be turned and she looked ugly as ever.

Her grayish skin didn't match her grey hair while her left eye color is red and it wasn't matching with the purple dress she was wearing, her small stone wings were uneven in size and her second voice sounded like a man not going well with her boring tone.

Jisung felt like puking everything he ate.

“you know mother, you'll die soon lifting that transformation” jisung said in a mocking smirk challenging her in whatever battle this is, his stomach grumbles again and the hunger kept increasing by each passing minute.

He wasn't able to hold it anymore as he fall on his knees and his mother start laughing at him “you're useless just like your soulmate and soon enough I'll be ruling a full gargoyle army into domination, and nothing can stop me” she held his necklace up observing it from up close but it seems nothing special about this item so she throw it away at jisung who grabbed it with a smile and hug it afterwards.

The whole scene made the queen feel disgusted as she approach him and swang her feet right across his face causing him to fall down and that when she felt all mighty upon holding a great a power while the Faerie wasn't able to hold it as he kept screaming out of pain while his life clutching on that necklace.

He kept receiving kicks from his mother all over his body and he wished to have the power to go against her but jisung was weak and his death is very near after losing his wings. He closed his eyes, letting tears go down from his eyes as he pictured himself in Minho's arms under the warm ray of sunshine in the middle of the forest.

how he wishes to be back there.

❝IS THAT YOUR WISH❞

Jisung nodded his head saying “yes” with breaking into a sob while his mother got sick of seeing him not fighting back and pushed him far away from her while she sat on her throne waiting for her sons to bring that vampire to her.

❝JISUNG ARE YOU HEARING ME❞

When jisung opened his eyes, he found himself floating on water while his surroundings had nothing but an endless white background, the water taking his hair in the direction of the waves and his hunger disappeared from existence since he didn't know what was happening.

Wasn't he just curled up into the floor a second ago.

❝JISUNG DO YOU WISH FOR YOUR MOTHER TO BE GONE❞

Jisung heard that voice again but he felt scared to respond. he didn't think that was Chan communicating with him through the other half of the necklace. He looked to his left then right, it seems like this place doesn't have any exit. His body felt heavy on the water as he tried moving into another direction but the water wave was so strong keeping him captive.

was this heaven? Is he dead?

❝YOU'RE NOT DEAD JISUNG. NOW ANSWER ME DO YOU WISH TO BE IN THE ARMS OF YOUR SOULMATE AGAIN❞

Jisung thought of it for a second then nodded his head, wanting to feel minho's cold temperature against him, to receive the cold touch of those hands and finally kiss those cold lips that he seems to be addicted to.

“what powers you'll grant me if I told you that all I want is to be with my soulmate?” he asked looking up at the white emptiness not being able to capture a face or a mouth that keeps talking to him from afar, Their voice echoes three times upon speaking and they felt very superior to him.

❝YOUR POWERS ARE ENDLESS JISUNG. AS LONG AS YOU HAVE A DESIRE THEN YOUR POWERS ARE YOUR WEAPONS BUT BE CAREFUL WITH USING THEM❞

Jisung took his time to think on which ability he wanted to be able to form the power on something he wanted to use against his mother and after a lot of thinking, he came with a solution closing his eyes with a smile.

“all for My moonset” he said in a whisper for his mother to focus her sight on him again, she clicked her teeth as she left her throne again to walk towards jisung but it seems like his body start glowing in green and easily getting lifted by air where he was flying before she could reach him.

His mother watched him with wide eyes as his hair kept swimming in the air and his necklace giving a blinding glow. the default form of the gemstone was slowly turning into the shape of a clover surrounded by a moon, the glow was able to form an Imaginary wings behind his back and upon opening his eyes, there was no irises, but plain white with green spikes coming out from the side corner of his eyes.

His whole aura changed and the transformation was unbelievably breathtaking that his mother caught herself tearing up upon seeing such a beautiful creature in front of her.

❝Mother, you think you are the legacy by turning yourself to a creature that died ages ago❞ Jisung spoke in triple voices, it was very loud that sounds a vibration through the queen's ears and made her lose most of her control over her new body “what happened to you? When did you get all of those powers?” she asked in her double voice clutching to her heart while looking up with full hatred.

Jisung sighed as he reached his arm to create a small light ball where he brought it close to his mouth and started chanting some words under his nose before letting go of the light ball to travel from his palm towards his mother where it goes across her chest. She blinked twice feeling nothing painful upon getting that attack as she looked up at her son and started laughing at him “is that all you got? A weak transparent light” As the time passed, she felt her body get lighter and she checked her hands as the gargoyle skin to be fading away and her human skin to appear again and she shouted “NO! WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO ME!!!!” the light ball successfully came out of her chest holding the powers that Minho once created from that gargoyle blood and upon seeing it closer to her eyes the queen tried to capture it in her hands but she couldn't reach anything As her hands went passed the light and it was transported back into Jisung's palm again.

❝this gargoyle was brutally killed by a human and his blood was used in your selfish needs but now having his soul in my hands I can release him from the misery he's been suffering❞ jisung said raising his hand to throw the light ball in the air causing it to disappear.

It wasn't a bloody battle that included one against one.

Jisung was simply more powerful than his mother to be able to defeat her without using his powers in certain forms that suit a battle.

“GIVE ME BACK MY POWERS JISUNG” She yelled with pure rage but jisung didn't move from his place and kept looking at her from above.

❝you're hopeless, mother❞

【10 minutes ago】

Minho made his way down the stairs after defeating the twins until he found much everyone on the floor and it might be because of the unbearable scream he did earlier yet he hoped it didn't affect jisung.

Right... jisung!!

He needs to go check on him because he's feeling that his soulmate is in danger. Going towards the throne room, Minho couldn't believe what his right eye was seeing in front of him “Changbin?” a familiar height, body built, and clothes... The owner of the name turns around to be faced with Minho, an old alley and a familiar friend.

Changbin knitted his eyebrows “Minho? What are you doing here? Weren't you wanted by Sevil?” Minho rolled his eyes listening to that again not aware of what was going on around the empire and he wasn't curious about it at all.

“that's my question?” Minho said with arms crossed.

At the time where Changbin was about to answer him, the other Faerie approach them and stand besides the demi-troll “Chan felt that jisung need our help so we teleported here” he pointed at him causing Chan to look back and forth at Minho then at Changbin “you guys know each other?”

“yes, he used to work for Sevil until he let himself fall in love with his son that banned him from coming back” he said, hitting the nerve.

“no need to spoil too much!!”

“guys guys...we need to go see jisung” he cut them off while holding his gemstone glowing and Minho panicked as he invaded Chan's personal space and held him by his shoulders “WHAT? DON'T TELL ME SOMETHING BAD HAPPENED TO HIM!!!” he kept shaking him wanting an answer, While Changbin had his eyes wide never expecting the all mighty Minho he used to know to get emotionally unstable by the mention of the demi-fae.

“you know that little fellah?” changbin ask where Minho turned his head and quickly said “he's my soulmate” before the glow kept getting stronger.

Chan never knew something like this would happen.

“fuck we need to go...from here” he  followed the way his gemstone was going while the two were behind not knowing anything of what going on and why is Chan panicking.

“what happened?”

“no time to waste, we need to go before it too late” Minho heard him say as they kept running, he lowered his head as guilt kept coming to him, he knows he shouldn't let Jisung go by himself and he's sure that screams affected him.

Even if jisung wasn't able to defeat his mother then that's okay and the vampire would make sure to tell him that.

When he was into his thoughts, it made him stumble on Chan who stopped running and looking up “damn it... we're too late” and that's where Minho finally opened his right and followed the same direction where the two were seeing.

He went past them to get better access to see clearly and it wasn't just like he imagined. There was his mother curled into the ball at the floor while Jisung was in the air flying.

“ji-jisung...is that you”

No...that wasn't his Jisung, it was someone controlling him.

With his huge body, they turned around revealing a familiar face to Minho but hair wasn't black anymore but blonde, green glowing skin, huge wings that didn't belong to him and finally his irises that weren't there anymore.

❝MINHO!! my dear sweet moonset, my Minho, my vampire, my soulmate ahhh my love❞ Jisung fly down and when he reached Minho, the transformation made him bigger than the vampire, the size gab didn't stop him from hugging his soulmate and bringing him up to dance in the air.

Chan didn't know how to explain this because when a fairy wears a gem necklace and loses control of its own powers, they transform into their true appearing but Jisung's transformation was bigger than he expected and he doesn't know why.

He wanted to call them but he found himself attracted to the beauty while Changbin had the same effects on him as well.

Minho looked down at both Changbin and Chan not saying anything since they were taken completely away by jisung's beauty just like it did with the rest of the guards that are presented here, he was fighting the other's embrace being to strong as jisung brought him into his chest while wrapping his arms around his waist “jisung, snap out of it” he shouted trying to push himself from him but the others wasn't budging.

❝why? Don't you find me pretty?❞ Minho finally looked at his eyes, his face, his hair... This whole thing didn't feel familiar with Minho and he didn't want to be fooled with such beauty because he knows what his heart wants, and surely it is not this.

“I do...you're more than pretty you are beautiful but that for my soulmate to hear not for you”

Jisung chuckled ❝what do you mean... i am me!❞ Minho shook his head causing the other's smile to drop since his powers weren't working on the vampire.

“sung...I can't live without you and I need you back” Minho said in a soft tone leaning his head forward to collide their lips and kiss his soulmate wishing to have him in his previous form.

The kiss impact was strong and Jisung melted into those cold lips since it was the thing he wished for the legacy to give him, the power to be feeling Minho's coldness again. His transformation outfit was slowly starting to melt down like a candle revealing Jisung in his small form again. That when the vampire had the ability to wrap his arms around his small waist still not letting go of his lips.

Everyone snap out of the power as the gourds went to their queen and other's tried to reach the two soulmate but Changbin and Chan were there to stop them letting Minho and Jisung he be their moment until the shouted an order to not go against them because she felt defeated and lost the war.

The soulmates slowly start going down from the air, turning in circles and lips refuse to get detached from the other.

When their feet landed on the ground, Jisung took the courage to broke the kiss as he flutters his eyes open to be looking directly at his soulmate, how beautiful he was with his silver eyelashes and pale skin, despite his lips being cold but the red pigment was present and made them seems tasteful as ever but then he snap out from fantasy and check his reality looking around him not remembering anything from that water bath he took inside the gemstone.

“what happ—moonset!! what's goin-” he couldn't finish his sentence because the vampire brought him to his embrace and put his cold hand on the back of his neck to rest jisung's head on his shoulder.

"You did well, my soulmate" minho said and start patting him from the end of his hair down to his neck going back and forth while Jisung felt his eyelids becoming heavy, the wholesome feeling not stopping him from smiling at how comfortable Minho's coldness is. he let himself drift away in his sleep under the other's touch.

The battle against the queen wasn't the thing that striped him from his stamina but the transformation did. it took a lot of it and with a big amount of his mana.

But everyone was thankful that this ended.
