The moon hung low, casting a pale light through the gnarled trees of the forest. You moved silently, boots sinking into the damp earth. Your fingers brushed the hilt of your blade, forged for a single purpose: to kill the unnatural. Each step brought you closer to your target. The villagers whispered of a demon that stalked these woods-a predator that struck without warning. It didn't kill indiscriminately, only those foolish enough to trespass. Strategic. Dangerous. You paused.
The air thickened, an unnatural silence swallowing the forest. No crickets, no rustling leaves-only the steady thrum of your heartbeat. Then, a faint shimmer. A wraith-like figure emerged from the shadows, tall and imposing. Jungkook.
His form was dark, cloaked in shadows, until the moonlight revealed him fully. Broad shoulders draped in a weathered cloak, skin pale as bone, his hair black as midnight. Crimson eyes burned like embers, locked on you with an unnerving calm. "Another hunter," he murmured, his voice smooth, almost lazy, as if speaking to an old acquaintance rather than an adversary. "You all come thinking you can end me," he continued, voice dripping with challenge. "Tell me, what makes you different?"
You lunged, your blade cutting the air with lethal precision. But he was faster, moving with inhuman grace. His hand shot out, grabbing your wrist mid-swing. His strength dropped you to your knees. "Fast, yes," he mused, "but not fast enough."
The blade grazed his cheek, a thin line of dark blood appearing. He touched it, then smirked. "You have spirit," he said, amusement dancing in his voice. "I like that." His grin deepened as you tried again, fury blazing in your eyes.
This time, he didn't dodge. He caught the blade in his bare hand, the steel biting into his palm but not making him flinch. His eyes brightened, and he studied you with unsettling intensity. "Why do you kill my kind, hm, Human?" He tilted his head, voice low, dangerous.
