Vampire In The City
V for Vincent

Dongwook was in his office checking some documents. He lightly did his job, remembering that soon he would get a blood shipment from the villa, the blood of Kim Taehyung. Dongwook was impatient. He was even more excited because of the vampire he caught with his own hands. Dongwook doesn't want to sell the vampire's blood. He will consume it himself to increase stamina and provide a youthful effect like never aging, that is indeed one of the benefits of vampire blood if consumed consistently.

Dongwook can't wait to finish his job and visit the vampire, thinking he has a vampire of his own hands makes him very excited. Moreover, previously he and Taehyung can be said to have a close relationship because they were often together while in Black Dragon.

Suddenly one of his personal assistants entered in a hurry carrying news that could not be held to just wait until the boss was finished working. The assistant immediately approached Dongwook and whispered into his ear. “I just got word that the villa in Gyeongbokgung has been breached in, the captive vampire escaped.”

Dongwook looked surprised. It was news he never expected. “What do you mean?”

“Guardians and doctors at the villa were found unconscious and when they woke up they could not remember any incident.” said the assistant.

“Mwo?” hatch Dongwook with a high voice. He slammed the pen onto the table. He just got a new pet and now it's off? Can't his men work with becus without his supervision?

Dongwook growling. “Then his blood?” He only hoped that at least he could still drink vampire blood tonight, the blood he had been waiting for.

The assistant shook with fear. “Blood has been taken but the bag fell and broke into lant–”

Dongwook threw the documents on the table onto the floor. He stood up very angrily, his breathing gasping for breath as his blood tension instantly skyrocketed. “Can't you guys work correctly just once, Dumb*ss?”

The assistant just looked down. Dongwook is a very scary man when angry, anyone does not dare to make eye contact with him when angry like this.

Dongwook ruffled his waist and tried to regulate his breathing. He must keep thinking clearly. He licked his dry lips with an evil smirk. Taehyung was out of his hands, but that doesn't mean he'll just give up. He will take back what is already his. If seen his expression like that, anyone would think that it was the expression of a psycho, previously furious but immediately controlled himself and gave an evil smirk as if he was thinking of a counter plan.

Suddenly flashed through Dongwook's mind there was Jungkook's face with a sinister smile as if he was scorning him. Is this all Jungkook's doing? Because lastly the man was so angry and tried to find Taehyung's whereabouts. His determination back then was so strong as to find Taehyung. But how can he find Taehyung in the villa? The ownership of the villa was not even in Dongwook's own name (it was Dongwook's doing to remove traces of his illegal deeds).

Dongwook's other assistant walked into the room with a document for his boss. If the assistant had come regardless of Dongwook's mood just to give something that made the man's heart hot, Dongwook would have thrown a chair at his assistant.

“Doctors at the villa had sent the file you requested regarding the DNA of Kim Taehyung,” said the assistant, “Before they finally fainted and do not remember anything else now.”

Dongwook raised his eyebrows. He received the document in question and read it himself. He scrunched his eyebrows. “ProjectV22?”

“It was one of the projects that was done a few years ago until finally the project was declared disappear.” said his assistant.

Dongwook can not remember it because honestly he does have a lot of ‘human projects like that even now. But the news that Taehyung had stopped being his project made Dongwook can forget a moment of his anger. This proves that from the beginning the vampire named Taehyung was his.

Dongwook frowned at ProjectV22 biodata :

Vincent Kim's

an orphan from Gwacheon, South Korea

Dongwook felt he had to go to the headquarters and ask the researchers there directly, if anyone remembers about ProjectV22. Dongwook is increasingly excited, if Taehyung is one of his experimental projects first then Dongwook actually has the right to take back what was once his.

“You don't remember Black Dragon? Lee Dongwook?”

Taehyung was very confused to hear Jungkook's question. His face was so comical because it was difficult to understand the meaning of his friend's questions. “Black Dragon? Dongwook Lee? I don't understand what you mean..”.

Jungkook. Being shocked like that, the door of the room opened and the other vampires entered. Seokjin, Namjoon, Yoon and Hoseok. They've cleared up the problems at the villa. Seokjin erases the memories of the humans in the villa, Namjoon and Hoseok damage all the CCTVs that record their faces, while Yoongi searches for anything in the villa that could be information regarding the syndicate. Yoongi gets no leads, he only takes drugs in the room where Taehyung is being held captive. Yoongi will investigate exactly what the doctors are trying to do to Taehyung.

“Taehyung is awake..” said Namjoon was relieved when he saw Taehyung was already sitting on the bed with Jungkook.

“Hyungie~!!” taehyung exclaimed sparklingly looking at his hyungs. Like Taehyung hasn't seen them for so long.

Seokjin. Hoseok also looked at Taehyung with bulging eyes, Taehyung who had never previously mentioned ‘hyungie’. Namjoon also almost choked. It was a call he hadn't heard for a long time but missed.

Yoon-gi looks closely at Taehyung, looks at facial expressions, body language and feels Taehyung's energy with his empathic powers. He no longer felt the aura of V. It's not wrong anymore…

Seokjin glanced at Yoongi, feeling that only the dhampir could confirm. Yoongi looked at Jungkook who somehow looked haggard. Jungkook just gave a slow nod to Yoongi.

“He’s back...” said Yoongi finally with a long smile, “Baby vampire we have returned.”

Namjoon's mouth was perfectly rounded. He did not expect that Taehyung, his cute dongsaeng had returned again. Namjoon rushed over to Taehyung and immediately hugged him, rubbing the head of the baby vampire fondly.

Seokjin smiled with relief. It's been a while since this house was filled with Kim Taehyung's spoiled whimper. Hoseok smiled and approached Taehyung, greeting him warmly.

Yoongi saw how the atmosphere was so relaxed, as if the tension a few hours ago had never happened. All are now focused on welcoming Taehyung, very happy to see Taehyung's innocent personality has returned. Yoon-gi glanced at Jungkook. Jungkook smiles like that, but he can feel that there is something inside Jungkook, a kind of confusion and sadness. Yoon-gi wonders what really happened.

Jungkook's mind couldn't focus. Repeatedly he reminded himself to enjoy this atmosphere and to be happy with Taehyung's return. But why does he feel that something is missing. Jungkook is not really relieved even though Taehyung who used to be back. Taehyung's past memory…

***

The school went on as usual. Still like Taehyung's dream back, his innocent and boxy smile attitude has returned. The vampire was so naive, he never kept disappointment in Jungkook even though he had been framed by hunters. He was satisfied enough to be close friends again with Jungkook and chose to forget Jungkook's previous actions.

Jimin noticed Taehyung's personality change when the three of them had lunch together in the cafeteria. Jimin was conscious. It is easy to know the difference. Taehyung's and V's aura was indeed much different. Highlight the eyes, the expression, the way they dress and speak, even the atmosphere they bring.

“You look very happy, Tae..” muttered Jimin was excited to see Taehyung's joy.

“I am very excited.” Taehyung said while eating his food. Taehyung is so happy since yesterday, hyungs love him so much, Jungkook cares for him more than ever. Even this morning Jungkook picked her up and they went to college together. Taehyung did not know how Jungkook's attitude could change when as he remembered before Jungkook away from him and did not want to be friends with him. Taehyung was very happy that everything had passed.

Jungkook noticed Taehyung from earlier, looking carefully at his expression, guessing who knew it was another personality from Taehyung, but it didn't seem so. Taehyung who was next to him was indeed Taehyung who was innocent. Jungkook had thought that this morning might be another Taehyung personality that would appear. Jungkook has not apologized for all his treatment, that's why he came to the Kim clan's residence this morning and picked up Taehyung. Jungkook has just realized that Taehyung's other personality is neither an evil personality nor a parasite. I don't know.. Jungkook felt he wanted to help because he saw the bitter memories that Taehyung experienced.

Since the arrest of Taehyung by Dongwook, Taehyung has not been left alone. The hyungs, Jungkook and Jimin agreed not to let Taehyung go alone even when going to the public restroom. Moreover, Taehyung who is now a baby vampire, innocent and has no vampire power to protect himself. Information about the events in Black Dragon or Lee Dongwook was kept secret from him. For now Seokjin will team up with the vampire council, looking for a way on how to find the syndicate headquarters.

After college ended, Jungkook drove Taehyung home. The events of a few days ago made Jungkook a little paranoid, especially he knew what kind of person Dongwook was. Jungkook just doesn't want Taehyung who is now discovered by Dongwook. As much as possible Jungkook will keep Taehyung from being in danger anymore. So he decided he would always take Taehyung home.

After driving Taehyung home, Jungkook decided to go to the Yoon-gi pastry shop. Jungkook stood in front of the store seeing that there were some customers that Yoongi was serving. Jungkook doesn't understand why he came to this place. He only felt that something had been stirring his mind since yesterday. Of course he's happy Taehyung's innocent is back. Wasn't that the first Taehyung he knew? Jungkook felt that something was still in his heart. And he thought that Yoon-gi could be his interlocutor.

Yoongi raised his face outside the shop, seeing Jungkook's appearance. Yoongi could sense that there was indeed something that made the human come. After serving the last customer, Yoon-gi rushes out to Jungkook. “Jungkook-ah... Why not sign in? Come on in..”.

Jungkook complied and followed the dhampir into the store. They sit in a fairly private place but Yoongi can still keep an eye on customers who come. Yoongi brings ice coffee and cheese cake to Jungkook.

“Gomawo, Hyung..” says Jungkook. He felt bad about his sudden arrival that was afraid to even disturb. “Mian, I came suddenly. Am I interrupting?”

“Gwaenchana.” Yoongi gave a smile. “You want to talk about Taehyung?”

Jungkook was quite surprised because Yoon-gi guessed it right away. The man gave a weak nod. Well, he won't cover it up again then. He knew that Yoon-gi might be able to help and become his interlocutor.

“I can't describe what I'm feeling, Hyung,” said, “I'm glad Taehyung whom I used to know is back. Innocent and cheerful Taehyung who always transmit a happy atmosphere to me.”

Yoongi gives a nod, ensuring Jungkook that he will be a good listener.

“At first I judged Taehyung's new personality, thinking of him as a bad-tempered, evil and parasitic personality. Many times I even asked him to go and restore Taehyung's personality that I used to know. We fought a few times because of that. What do you think, Hyung, about the two personalities Taehyung has?”

Yoongi sighed. It may be necessary to also explain what he knows to Jungkook so that there is no misunderstanding. “This may be hard for you to understand. Taehyung does have two personalities, one innocent and the other the opposite. Honestly, we also just found out he has another personality after he woke up from being shot hunter.”

Jungkook's face was getting more alarming. So only he has accused Taehyung of being possessed by an evil personality?

“Seokjin, our Alpha, found Taehyung five years ago. According to the story, Taehyung was unconscious and his head was bleeding. Since then Seokjin brought him to join the clan. And while with us, he always showed himself to be innocent and not even have any vampire powers. We suspect Taehyung has a double personality because there is a trauma that he has experienced,” Yoongi sighed back, “For us, whatever his personality he remains a member of the Kim clan.”

Jungkook biting lips. “She has two personalities but I feel something is strange. Taehyung's innocent personality can't remember anything about the events in Black Dragon, nor does he remember his past before becoming a vampire.

Yoongi patted Jungkook on the shoulder, feeling what human anxiety was like. “Taehyung suffered identity disorder due to trauma. And you should know that one personality is not his real personality.”

Jungkook's eyes are breaking. “So you mean..?”

“He said his name was Vincent before becoming a vampire, and from there we could tell that it was his real personality. While Taehyung is innocent that we see it is just another personality that appears later due to the trauma he experienced.”

“M-mwo?” Jungkook's lips were shaking. He had expected this answer but why was it still giving him a sense of shock. During this time he instead accused Taehyung by addressing him as a fake and parasitic personality.

Yoon-gi looks at Jungkook's face carefully. He thought he would not tell first about Jungkook and Taehyung's relationship which is soulmate because it would make things even more complicated for Jungkook.

“That's why only Vincent or V remembers all events including his own past. We don't know much about his past because he doesn't want to tell him.” said Yoongi.

Jungkook held his breath. That's what he wants to talk about, too. “It's weird, but sometimes I can hear Taehyung or V in my head even though I'm not with him. When yesterday he was arrested Dongwook, actually I got some kind of telepathy his voice is asking for help. and I know where Taehyung was arrested because I got the dream.” Jungkook ruffled his hair half frustrated, “And every time he sucked my blood, I seemed to be able to see his old memory.”

Yoon-gi raises both eyebrows. “What do you see, Jungkook?”

Jungkook squeezed the hand tightly, recalling the memory made Jungkook's heart very bitter. “I saw her before becoming a vampire. And like there are people who test drugs on him.”

Yoongi's eyes grew bigger. So it's true that V turned into a mutant vampire due to the over-treatment of drugs. And I don't know if V was one of those guinea pigs that turned him into a mutant vampire.

“A-I really want to help him..” said Jungkook honestly, “I want to help V.”.

Yoongi. He also wants to do the same. But the problem is that the real V chooses to hide and let his other personality emerge.

Jungkook just looked down full of guilt, recalling V's last words in his head..

You must be happy that I'm finally gone, Jeon…

No, it's not like that. It is precisely Jungkook regretted that he had said hurtful things to V. He regretted being late in understanding the situation. He wants to fix everything.

“I'm sure you are destined to be able to help V or Taehyung..” said Yoon-gi patted Jungkook's arm on the table, “Whatever his name is, it doesn't matter to us?”

Jungkook nodded. If previously Taehyung was a human and turned into a vampire due to evil people, Jungkook could not accept it. He will find out who is responsible for every injury and trauma that Taehyung has experienced.
