The Vampire and the Bat

The Vampire!Jason AU that has been living in my head rent free for the past six months.

___

The thing is, Jason wasn't stupid. He was always top of his class. Well, within the top five, at least. Or, he was back when he still went to school. Even now, he's been on the streets for two, almost three years and he's been smart enough not to join any of the gangs who would use him for his strength and leave him to take the fall, or be picked up by the Clans who would make him into a Thrall, a mindless ghoul to do their bidding, and he's avoided CPS. He was smart enough to not get hooked on drops, pops, angel blood, or any of the other street drugs that steal away your life.

The point is, Jason is smart. But he's also hungry, and a hungry vampire is a desperate vampire. Desperate people tend to do some pretty stupid things.

Which would explain his current predicament: staring up at Batman, the most prolific vampire hunter on the East Coast, tire iron clutched in one hand and three out of four Batmobile tires stashed two alleys over and the fourth most of the way off.

For a long moment nothing happened. Jason stared up at the blank white lenses. Neither of them blinked. Jason wasn't sure either of them were breathing. Batman was between him and the mouth of the alley, but there was a fire escape at the other end. If he was quick enough…

Batman moved, a gloved hand reached out to grab him. Jason swung the tire iron with all his strength. It made contact with the man's armor, sending jarring vibrations up his arms. Batman grunted and Jason dropped the tire iron and took off, jumping off the wall in order to make it to the ladder. His fingers had just brushed a rung when something snagged his foot and pulled him down. Thick arms wrapped around his torso and held him against a broad chest.

That's when he smelled it.

Blood.

Human and fresh, barely a half hour old.

The world became sharper, brighter. His focus narrowed in on the source of blood. It was so close.

Batman had blood on his gloves, bright red against the silver clawed tips.

Jason screamed and started kicking and pushing at Batman's arms. He had to get away. In a lucky move, Jason's head caught Batman in the lip and the man dropped him in surprise. He scrambled away and pressed his back into the wall, his hands covering his mouth and nose.

"You're hungry." Batman said it like it was a matter of fact. Jason shook his head. He was. He was starving! But he wouldn't lose control. He had seen what happened to vampires who lost control. They were put down like rabid dogs. That wouldn't be him. But Batman was tugging off his gloves, removing his gauntlets. Exposing the tender vulnerable flesh to the open air. The veins shone blue under the thin skin. The wrist was one of the few places a fledgeling could feed from before their adult fangs came in. Saliva flooded his mouth, its numbing effect making his tongue tingle. His baby fangs descended, sharp enough to break skin but not long enough or strong enough to hold prey.

Batman was holding out his hand, wrist up. It was a trap. No one offered up their blood to a clanless Dhampir. Not for free. The man was saying something, Jason could see his mouth moving, but he couldn't hear him over the too-old blood roaring through his ears. He shook his head and Batman pulled back. Jason was smart enough not to hope the man would just leave.

Sure enough, Batman only sat back on his heels. With a flick of a wrist a dark bat-shaped blade appeared in the man's still gloved hand. A Batarang. He had found dozens of them over the city, and they fetched a decent price at the pawn shops. What was he going to do with it? Jason had read books where thieves had fingers cut off, or were scarred for each infraction. If Batman wanted to hurt him he was too young and weak to do much more than kick and scream.

But Batman didn't lunge for him, or grab his arm at all. Instead he held the Batarang to his bare wrist and —

The scent of fresh blood assaulted his senses immediately. It permeated the air, so thick he could almost see it. He could hear Batman's heart beating, steady like an execution drum. The man held his hand out again, precious drops of ruby red rolling down to his fingers, dripping onto the concrete.

Jason snarled, growling and hissing at the temptation in front of him. He would not drink it. He may be a tire thief but he wasn't a blood thief! With a burst of energy Jason leapt out of his crouch and used Batman's outstretched arm as a springboard. He launched himself halfway up the rusty fire escape. He had to get to the roof, get somewhere safe. Away from people. Away from Batman.

Fun fact: Did you know that during the animation of a masked converting you, your helmet starts to fill with a blurry opaque red effect? I think your poor character just ends up drowning from the sheer force of blood before turning. Rip. (Fun idea/concept tho!)

Honestly it is so amazing to see shows grow with their audience. Being young watching adventure time to now watching Fiona and cake as an adult is so heart warming. I really appreciate how they are just going all out with the blood now, going super in depth with the lore. Sometimes I have found moments of the show to be scary or disturbing (specifically recalling the scene where simon hooks up choose goose frying him). But at the same time seeing Fiona being a normal human doing the shit 9-5 and just being relatable to the grown up audience is also such a nice touch. Can't wait for more episodes.

incomplete mcdanno magic idea just cos for Halloween my brother, cousin, and I watched a lot of Halloween stuff. 

so in a magical setting, i’m too sleepy to pick one of the many ways I’ve thrown these two into the supernatural, but anyway, Danny’s been kidnapped (kidnapper could be supernatural or your typical bad guy. Danny just has shit luck on Halloween) and they try to do a tracking spell. 

To track him they need something that connects to Danny but caster isn’t the stronger so can’t do the tracking spell with anything less than something SUPER important to Danny. Grace is with Rachel (and I’m personally envisioning earlier seasons) 

so anyway, they try using Danny’s at the time gf. A drop of blood to help track Danny’s whereabouts on the map. It doesn’t work. A few more drops of blood. Still doesn’t work. Steve’s losing his patience and he slams his hand onto the map, out of anger, but earlier as he tried to save Danny from being taken in the first place got his palm sliced. A bit of blood seeps through the bandage...like a mere fleck of blood if we’re honest, and the map LIGHTS up a glowing trail from where Steve is on the map to where Danny can be found. 

It’s a little awkward but rescuing Danny is more important. 

A few days later, Danny finds a place in conversation to let it slip that he’s single again. He might also take Steve’s hand and stare at the fading scar, as he asks Steve how it was healing up. 

Steve shifts his hand until he’s interlocking his fingers with Danny, gripping his hand lightly, “Much better now.”

eventually you'll see i'm not worth it.

From; Prompts for stubborn people

To say the basement room, which had been their home for quite some time, was quiet would not be wrong, but it would also be incorrect. It was quiet compared to the growling, screeching, screaming that filled the hallways at most hours of the day. However, currently, there was a lull in the loud noises, which left them with time to contemplate. Which was always a dangerous endeavour.

The mage had decided to spend the time trying to clean one of Alexis' shirts. A rather fruitless task since they didn't have a sink not stained with blood, but the other doctor had recently taken a hit from an unruly patient and she wanted to help. However, the scrubbing stopped when she heard Alexis speak up.

"Alexis..." Her voice was soft when she eventually responded. "I... You are worth it." Turning her eyes locked onto his. "Listen... I know things are, well, hard doesn't even describe it. But you are worth it, you hear me?"

Savior (ENHYPEN's Jake)

Pairing: ENHYPEN's Sim Jake x Fem reader! Tags: angst, strangers, kidnapping (Jake), swearing, blood/physical body assault attack, set in Jeju-do

Blurb: Jake is missing. How will he find his way back to the others and how does he know if he's truly safe? Word Count: ~6178

*BREAKING NEWS: ENHYPEN’s Jake Goes Missing From Photoshoot*

“It has been reported that the ENHYPEN member was last seen following a female posed as a staff member into a van. The van was last seen on camera leaving the area at 4:03PM.”

“We are asking the public to keep an eye out for Jake. He was last seen wearing their concept photo outfit, a black suit with a cream satin shirt with ruffles. We ask that the assailant please let him go with no questions asked. He is just an innocent boy who is chasing his dreams. This isn’t fair to him or his family.”

Jake doesn’t know where he is. All he remembered was that a staff noona asked him to follow her to the car to fix his outfit. Since they were on Jeju-do without a proper room to change and get ready in, he followed her thinking it would be a simple fix. Jake followed the staff noona who gave him a drink and told him to sit in the car as she went through the “her stuff”. Jake got comfortable and drank the juice she gave him. It tasted weird but she slammed the door shut. Jake got startled as he tried to open the door to get out, but found he was locked in. The girl ran around to the driver seat, pulling her hat down and starting the car. 

“H-h-hey... What’s going on?” Jake asked nervously

The girl just drove off while looking at him through the rear-view mirror, “Jake-ah... I’m so happy that you’re with me now. I’ll take care of you forever.”

Jake started to sweat and tried yanking the door open but found his body becoming tired and limp. All he heard was the weird noona laughing as she drove off with him. 

When Jake comes to, the sun has set and he was in some sort of shack basement. His head was ringing and the floor was cold. He tries to get up but stumbles before getting to his feet. His blood is rushing and his fight mode has him trying to open the door. He sees light shining in from a small window that was about shoulder height. He looks out and sees that the shack was halfway into the ground and that there was a house nearby within a walled area. The lights were off in the house. He doesn’t know what takes over him but he looks around to find something to break the window as he couldn’t open it. Unable to find anything, he takes off his suit jacket and wraps it around his fist before breaking it with his fist. He quickly and quietly moves, finding an old box that barely holds his weight. He uses that to launch himself but it breaks as he’s halfway out. The glass cuts his stomach as he drags himself out. He muffled his cries as he lifted himself up from the dirt. 

When he stands on his feet, he sees that he’s bleeding. He takes his suit jacket and dusts off all the dirt and glass before making his way out of the walled area. When he exits, all he sees is a long dark road and the sea surrounding him. Something told him to follow the rising sun. He ran and ran before reaching the beach. He doesn’t know how long he’s been running but his legs are sore and his lungs are overworked. When he watches the sun start to rise above the sea, he feels his eyes well up in tears and a scream rips through his throat before he sobs.

“Help me...” he cries

Jake stands there crying, thinking about whether anyone has noticed that he has disappeared. He sobs into his arm when he hears someone coughing. He flinches as he sees a young girl collecting nets by the sea. He sighs with relief that there was another person. The person looks over at his sigh and makes eye contact with him before looking at him with concern. Jake was relieved that it wasn’t the same person from before.

The girl runs up to him, speaking some different type of Korean, “Orabang, you’re bleeding! Are you okay?”

Jake cries as he feels his legs give up on him. His body is tired from running and next thing he knows, he’s passing out once again.

When Jake comes to, he’s under some covers and he sees a small frame leaning against the wall asleep. He flinches thinking that he actually didn’t escape when he feels a sharp pain. He cries out in pain which wakes the girl up.

The girl’s eyes shoot open. “Orabang! Are you awake?” she says as she moves closer to him.

“Halmang! He’s awake.” The girl pushes him to lay back down, “Careful. You were bleeding a lot when I found you.”

He lays back down when an older lady and man walks in. They had a look of concern on their face as they brought in a table of food and a change of clothing. The older man speaks first.

“Young man... I don’t know what you got yourself mixed up in but rest here for a while.” the old man said with concern

“Yes, when our granddaughter brought you back here on her back while bleeding, we thought she was the one who was hurt.” the grandmother said with a tear in her eye

“Here, change into these clothes. I’m sure they’ll be more comfortable than the suit you’re wearing.” the girl says with a dopey smile

Jake sits there in silence as he tries to understand what is being said. Maybe it’s better off this way so that they don’t find out who he is. For all he knows, this girl might know the one who took him. 

“What’s your name, young man?” the grandfather asked

Jake tilted his head but understood that the man was asking for his name. Thinking that he could maybe trust this family, he shyly tells them his name, “My name is Shim Jaeyun.”

The grandfather looks at him in surprise before asking in a broken Seoul accent, “Are you from Seoul?” 

Jake sighs as he’s able to pick up what the older man is asking. He nods his head. The older man smiles as he takes Jake’s hands into his. 

“This is my wife and this is our granddaughter. Feel free to call her halmang,” he points at the older woman, “and call me haerubang.” He points to their granddaughter, “This is our granddaughter who found you.”

“My name is Y/N. Y/L/N Y/F/N.” the girl says with a soft smile

“What happened to you that our granddaughter found you bleeding on the beach?” he asked

Jake had a flashback to everything that happened to him. He shudders as he remembers the voice of the older lady and the smell of the drink. He suddenly tries to remember if he had his phone feeling his pants and realizes he is shirtless with bandages covering his stomach. He blushes as he realizes that he’s been sitting here without his shirt. 

“Uhm, I was here for work when someone took me. Uhm, I don’t know where I am besides that this is Jeju.”Jake states

“You must be the missing K-Pop idol everyone is looking for.” The grandfather states, “The entire nation is looking for you.”

“Yeobo, call the police!” the older man tells his wife

The man’s wife gets up quickly before shooting Jake a pitiful look, “You poor thing! To have been taken like that.”

“Don’t you worry. We’re going to make sure you get back safely.” The grandfather said with a soft smile, “We’re a little far from the main town but I’m sure everyone will come running once they know you’re here.”

Jake sighs in relief as he sees that they are really trying to help him. “Uhm... Do you guys have a phone?”Jake asked

The younger girl nods and takes her out. Jake smiles as he timidly takes the phone from the girl. He types in a number, Jungwon’s number. He hears the phone ring a few times before a sad sounding Jungwon answers the phone.

“Hello?” Jungwon says

Jake sighs, “Jungwon...”

“Jake hyung!” He hears Jungwon scream into the phone before sobbing. He hears running and someone speaks into the phone.

“Jake! Are you okay? Where are you? Whose phone are you calling from?”

It was Heeseung. Jake smiles before tearing up, “I’m okay. Some people found me and they’re calling the police to let them know I’m here.”

“Yah, how could you follow someone random like that?” Jay asked, “You scared all of us.” 

Jake laughed as he heard Jay’s voice break as he began to cry.

“Sorry bro... But I’m okay.” Jake said as he began to cry as well

The older man and Y/N got up, letting Jake have the room to himself. The older man pats his head. Jake smiles as he feels reassured by the older man. Jake tells the members he’s okay as he explains the situation, how Y/N found him when he escaped and how they are now helping him get back home. He ends the call, feeling bad that he’s taken the girl’s phone. He looks at the clothing they had for him. It was simple, a pair of pants and a dark colored t-shirt. He quickly changes before leaving his room to see the girls sitting outside. He taps her shoulder and sticks out her phone. The girl smiles before shaking her head and pushing it back to him as she speaks with a thick accent, trying her best to imitate a Seoul accent.

“No. You hold onto it for now. It’s yours until they come get you. I’m sure your friends are worried.” she says with a soft smile, “Don’t worry. I’ll get a new phone after you leave so it won’t have anyones number.”

Jake smiles at how thoughtful she was but he hands it to her, “No. It’s okay. I’m thankful that you all are helping me. Thank you.”

The girl smiles at him, “I’d do it for anyone. I hope your friends are okay.”

Jake smiles as he pictures his members face. They sit there quietly as the bright sun shines down on them. The grandfather comes back.

“We’re a little far out but they’ll be here before sundown. Until then, stay comfortable. Don’t leave the house. We won’t let anyone in. You’re safe here.” 

The grandmother gives Jake a smile, “You’re so handsome. I’m glad Y/N’s father's clothing fits you well. Make sure to eat and rest up.”

The two walked away, holding hands as they entered their room. Jake looks to see Y/N shaking her head.

“Even after all these years they’re still lovey dovey as ever.” she says with a sigh

Jake laughs, “I think it’s cute.”

Y/N turns to look at him, “It sets the bar high for people in my life then.”

Jake looks at her and sees her turn to look at the room her grandparents entered. The doors were open and they both watched as her grandparents were watching TV, enjoying each other’s presence. Jake takes in her face, she seemed young, maybe the same age. Something about her made it comfortable for him to relax and let his guard down.

“So, how old are you?”Jake asked

Y/N turned to look at him, “I just graduated high school. I’m 18 years old.”

Jake smiled as he asked her, “How old do you think I am?”

Y/N sat there thinking, “You’re definitely an orabang... Maybe 24 years old?”

Jake gasped, “Yah, I’m only a year older than you! I'm 19 years old.”

Y/N gasped, “Aaayyeeee~ Then why are you so tall? Do they feed you Seoul people height pills or something?”

Jake laughed, “I’m from Australia. I was born in Korea but I moved there when I was young.”

Y/N gasped, “My dad is in Australia. He works at the ports. What was it? Pi-sher-mahn I-lan-due?”

Jake gasps, “Ah! Fisherman Island?”

Y/N claps and lets her satoori slip, “Yes! There. You know where that is?”

Jake laughs, “I’m from Brisbane. It’s really close, it’s the same area.”

Y/N smiles as it feels nice to know that someone knows where that is. Living on a small island off the main peninsula, some people here don’t even understand where Australia is.

Jake smiles as he sees her face light up, “So why do you live here and not in Australia with your dad?”

Y/N’s smile drops slowly as she fiddles with her hands, “My mom died giving birth to me. My dad moved back here with me and ended up finding a job there that paid well. He sends us money every month but he started a family there and I feel bad if I were to leave my grandparents here alone. Besides, I’m just a hillbilly haenyeo with a high school degree. I can barely even speak the Seoul accent.”

Jake sadly looks at her, “I’m sorry about your mom...”

Y/N looks at him and smiles, “It’s okay. My dad loves me and so does his wife. She’s a native Australian. She tried her best to speak Korean with me the last time I visited. She wanted me to stay but if halmang and haerubang don’t come along then I don’t want to go.”

Jake smiles, “You must really love them don’t you?”

Y/N smiles as she watches how her grandfather allows her grandmother to lay on his lap as he brushes his hand through hair. Jake and Y/N make small talk as they talk about him growing up in Brisbane and what life was like on Jeju. When dinner time rolls around, Jake is helping halmang and Y/N. They decide to make a feast to celebrate Jake going home safely. They ate and made more small talk as Y/N told her grandparents that he’s from Brisbane. He talked about his family and growing up there. It made halmang tear up as she took his hand into her’s. 

“Aigoo... You poor thing. You must miss your parents so much.” halmang said as she pat it

Jake smiled and nodded, “But it's okay. My friends are my family here.”

Just as he says that, Y/N’s phone rings in his pocket. He pulls it out and sees that it’s Jungwon’s number. He hurriedly picks up.

“Hello? Jungwon?” Jake asks

“Hyung, we’re almost there! Are you okay still?” Jungwon asks with concern

Jake smiles, “Neh, I’m okay. We’re just about done eating dinner.”

Jungwon sighs in relief, “That’s good.”

Jake smiles as he hears Sunoo crying in the background as Sunghoon and Niki try to calm him, “Is that Sunoo crying?”

“Yah! I was so worried. We all were.” he cries

“We’ll be there soon Jake! Hang tight.” Sunghoon says

“Hyung, you’re okay right?” Niki says quietly

Jake smiles again, looking at Y/N and her grandparents, “Uh. I’m okay.” 

He quickly says good-bye and hangs up. They all work together to clean up and settle outside to wait for the police, the members and their managers. Halmang was cutting fruits when flashing lights were seen. Jake stands up quickly and runs to the gates as the police, the managers and the members come running out towards him yelling his name. Jake feels his eyes tear up as he runs towards them. They all hug him and scream in relief that he is okay. Y/N and her grandparents smile at the scene, thankful that he was reunited with the right people. The managers quickly check him and one of them drags him to the waiting ambulance. The other manager and some police officers come over to Y/N and her grandparents. The manager falls to the ground on his knees.

“Thank you. Thank you so much for taking care of him and calling the police when you found him.” the manager said as tears fell from his eyes.

Y/N’s grandfather just chuckles as he lifts the man up, “Don’t thank us. We would have helped him or anyone else. I’m just thankful that we found him.”

The manager hugs her grandfather as the police ask for their statements. One officer asks Y/N to follow him to his squad car to get her statement. When she exits the property, she sees that the medic team was checking his cut. They were telling Jake that whoever cleaned it, did a good job because it could’ve gotten infected. She saw how the members were surrounding him, watching as Jake winced at each dab of disinfectant. 

“Are you okay if we record your statement?” Y/N agreed with shaking her head. “Your name?” the officer asked

“Y/N. Heo Y/N.” she answered 

“Age?”

“18 years old.” she answered again

“How did you come across Shim Jaeyun here?” they asked

“I was out at sea before sunrise digging for clams. Once my bag was filled, I resurfaced and saw a well-dressed bleeding man, crying and yelling. He saw me and said something funny, I think it was English. He looked so pitiful and he kept bleeding so I went up to him. Before I could get any sort of answer from him, he passed out and I brought him back here.”

The officer nodded, “And what happened when you brought him here?”

“I carried him back and halmang and haerubang helped me get him to my room. I cleaned his blood and cut. He passed out and was saying some more nonsense in English before he woke up. When we found out he was that missing idol from the news, halmang called you guys and here we are.” Y/N said

The officer nodded before going through some files. He showed her a few photos. One of a black van and a woman in a long black coat with a black bucket hat that covered her face. 

“Does this person or vehicle look familiar?”

Y/N shook her head, “There’s not a lot of people around this area so we pretty much know each other. This person doesn’t look familiar.”

The officer sighs, flipping through more photos when she sees something that catches her eyes.

“Actually, that photo...” Y/N points out

The officer hurriedly pulls it out, “What about this one?”

It was a photo of the person driving. No one could make out her face. The only thing seen were her hands.

“An unnie came here a week ago. She spoke in a Seoul accent asking about an address about 40 minutes from here. I remembered her because she had this mark on her hand. Like this one.” Y/N points to her hands, “I think it was a big mole or something.”

The officer sighs in relief, “And where was this-”

Screams erupted and Y/N turned around. There was the weird lady from the photo. She had a female medic worker in a choke hold while brandishing a knife at everyone. The ENHYPEN members were all blocking the crazy lady from Jake as their eyes darted between him and the knife being waved around. The police quickly surrounded the lady but kept a distance.

“Let the medic go. What you‘re doing is wrong.” an officer said

This only angered the lady, “No! What you guys are doing is wrong! Jake is mine! You guys are keeping me from him.”

She starts to swing the knife again before turning to look at Jake.

“Jake-ah... We are meant to be. If I can’t have you...” The lady begins to cry as she lets go of the female medic and runs towards him and the members, “Then no one can.”

She lunges towards the members as Jay and Heeseung grab the other members to pull them out of the way. Jake, sitting on the stretcher, feels himself being pulled off by Niki and they fall to the ground in a grunt. Everything goes silent when Jake hears halmang’s deafening scream.

“Nae saeki!!!” halmand screams out loud

Jake and the ENHYPEN members open their eyes and see that Y/N had jumped in front of them, taking the knife to the chest. Blood was pooling on her shirt and it began dripping down her shirt as she grabbed the crazy lady’s hand.

“Yah! Who the fuck are you?” The crazy lady yelled

Y/N glared at her as she gripped the lady's hands and kicked her, making her fly to the ground. When she’s on the ground, the officers tackle her. Y/N yells as she finally feels the pain from the knife. Jake hurries to her, pushing himself off of Niki as he catches her while she clutches the knife. She starts to spit up blood as she sees Jake begin to cry.

“Are you okay?” she asks as more blood comes out of her mouth

Jake cries and yells, “Help! Someone help her!” he sobs as he holds her close to him, “Please! DO SOMETHING!”

The officers and medics rush to her, having to force Jake away from her. His dark t-shirt is even darker as it soaked up her blood. Niki and Sunwoo are sobbing, having to be pulled away by Heeseung and Sunghoon. Jungwon stands there in shock at what happens before a manager pulls the young boy away. Jay has to hold back Jake from jumping on the girl with the knife in his chest as he pulls the Aussie boy into a hug.

“Jake! You have to let them help her.” Jay yells at him 

Jake sobs as he sees halmang collapse and haerubang cry as their bleeding granddaughter is taken away.

“We want to thank everyone for being here today as we are fortunate to announce that ENHYPEN’s Jake has been located and is free from major harm. We want to thank everyone for all the tips and attention this had. Unfortunately, while securing the missing idol into the care of his management, the suspect showed up and assaulted the medical team and officers on site. While trying to de-escalate the situation, the suspect attempted to hurt said idol but had instead injured one of the residents who reported the idol found. At this time, we ask that you all keep her in your prayers. I will now be taking questions.”the police commissioner said

Reporters began to buzz, yelling out questions as he tried his best to take them one at a time. 

Jake sat outside the operating room, refusing to move or change. Jay and Sunghoon sat on both sides, trying their best to comfort the boy. Their manager was down the hall on the phone with HYBE explaining that Jake won’t leave the doors of the operating room. 

“Jake... Please change at least. You’ve been sitting here for three hours.” Sunghoon tried to reason

Jake shook his head. He didn’t care that his clothing was covered in blood. He didn’t have a right to move when she was lying on the operating table because of him.

“She’s fucking like this because of me. Of all people, me.” Jake cried into his hands

Jay sighed as he patted his friend’s back, “Jake. It’s not your fault. It’s that fucking crazy bitch’s fault.”

Sunghoon nodded, “Don’t blame yourself. We’ll make sure that lady never makes it out of prison.”

Jake cries as his two friends hug him. They sit there for a while longer when the surgeon comes out. Jake stands up, wiping his tears, “Doctor! Is she okay?”

Their manager comes running over, “How is she?”

The doctor sighs but smiles, “She’s stable. The stab nicked her lungs but we managed to fix that and stop the bleeding. She’s lucky to be alive.”

The members and their manager sigh.

“They’re finishing up and she’ll be moved to a private room.” the doctor says as Jake falls to his knees holding his hands

“Thank you so much.” he cries

The doctor smiles before walking off down the hall. Knowing that she was fine, he finally agreed to change and get cleaned. The other four members were at a close hotel, waiting. Heeseung being the oldest stayed to help calm the younger members. Jake put the bloody clothing in an evidence bag that the police gave him, wanting to take it to help keep the crazy bitch behind bars, and showered in Y/N’s room bathroom. He quickly washed off her blood, crying as he remembered how she asked if he was okay when she got stabbed. When he exits, Jay and Sunghoon are sitting on the loveseat sofa, asleep while leaning on each other. He smiled as he was thankful to have friends who cared for him. 

Jake pulls a chair next to Y/N’s bed. She had an air tube down her throat, helping her breathe. He began to tear up again seeing her in this state. While holding her hand and crying, he hears the door open. It was her grandfather.

“Haerubang...” Jake sobbed as he stood up

He walked over and the older man enveloped him in a hug, “Are you okay son?”

Jake shook his head yes but inside he knew he wasn’t. Haeubang chuckled lightly, “Don’t lie to me. I know you aren’t.”

Jake pulls away from the hold, taking the older man’s hand into his, “I’m so sorry. I didn’t-”

Haerubang nudges his head, “Saeki... It’s not your fault. I’m just thankful our Y/N is alive. It’s hard seeing her like this right now but she’s alive.”

Jake cries as he hears haerubang’s words. Instead of him comforting the older man, it was the other way around. The older man smiles as he pulls Jake into a hug. “It must have been scary wasn’t it? Don’t worry. Y/N is a strong person. She’ll bounce back.”

And bounce back she did. The next day, she opened her eyes. Jake was there, as was Sunoo, Jungwon and Niki. Jake screamed for the doctor as the younger boys surrounded the girl. Three days later, she’s able to start breathing on her own without the tube. It was hard but she was able to. It was hard for her to talk but she managed to squeak a few words here and there before Jake would stop her from speaking. A week later and she’s able to start eating more solid foods, asking that fried chicken be the first thing she wants. The members of ENHYPEN all enjoy it with her. Her grandmother recovered from the shock, visiting her granddaughter everyday. She liked seeing the boys, living such a quiet island life, she enjoyed having the young energy.

The members tried to entertain Y/N, dancing to their songs, telling her stories of being an idol, something she could care less about and fun facts about all the members. It was nice not having to think about the incident but Y/N found herself waking up in a cold sweat, the incident replaying in her mind over and over again. The smell of her blood and the way that Jake looked down at her as she laid there bleeding in his arms. 

She woke up to an empty room. She was scared yet thankful as she wasn’t able to process what truly happened as Jake never left her side. She sat up and looked around. She remembers Jake saying something about being airlifted to a bigger hospital and that this was one of the best hospitals.

Y/N lifts her legs up, taking a step onto the hard floor. Her body was sore but she was thankful to be in one piece, kind of. She checks the clock. In red blaring lights, it read, 12:34AM. Feeling awake and restless, Y/N exits her room and makes her way to the lounge area. She stands by the window, looking out the window as she sees that the hospital overlooks the sea. 

“This must be a good hospital, Look at the view...” Y/N thinks to herself.

She shivers due to the cold temperature in the hospital, only wearing the thin hospital outfit. She feels a blanket wrap around her. She flinches to turn around and sees that it’s Jake. She smiles as she pulls the blanket to wrap her fully.

“What are you still doing here?”Y/N asked

Jake slowly releases her from his arms, “How can I just leave my saviour like that?”

Y/N shakes her head, “Like I said, I’d do this for anyone.”

Jake pouts, “Hey. Don’t say that.”

Y/N laughs before groaning in pain.

“Are you okay?” Jake asks with concern

Y/N shakes her head yes before catching her breath, “Yeah, just sore still.”

“Come on, let’s head back.” Jake says as he wraps his arms around her again

Y/N shakes her head, “No. I’m tired of being in that room. I just want to stay here for a bit.”

Y/N clutches the blanket, making Jake’s arms wrap more around her. Jake blushes as he holds her in his arms. They stand there, just looking out the window, looking out to the sea. Jake looks down and sees the way her hair falls naturally and covers her neck, how the blanket perfectly covers her smaller frame and how comfortable it feels to hold her in his arms. He tries not to over think as he leans into the hug, placing his chin on her head, resting it. 

Another week goes by and Y/N is finally getting discharged. The ENHYPEN members have been there for nearly a month on Jeju-do, away from prying eyes, getting the help they needed to process what happened. With the support of each other, their company and ENGENEs, they were able to get the help they needed. After much discussion, they decided to donate half of the proceeds of their upcoming album to Y/N and her grandparents and the other half to victims of senseless violence. The crazy sasaeng was quickly sentenced and placed in a psych ward. She would be monitored for the rest of her life. If she were to act up again, she’d be thrown into prison right away, something that pissed off Y/N’s grandparents and ENGENEs. They felt like the lady should have been imprisoned and hanged for what she did. 

The members were finally flying back to Seoul to further rest and continue with the album. Knowing that the proceeds from the album was going to help Y/N and her grandparents made Jake want to go back and finish it and release it. Jake begged Y/N and her grandparents to see them off. It was a ways from their home but they agreed. When they get there, they enter through a private entrance to stay away from prying eyes. Y/N’s grandparents hug Jake good-bye and move down the line of the other members. Halmang hugged and kissed each boy but gave Niki the most attention. She held his hand as she spoke sweet words to him.

“Niki-ah~ Halmang is so happy to have met you. I wish I had a grandson as sweet and as handsome as you.”

Niki blushed as he hugged the older woman again. She laughed as she hugged him back, “I’ll make sure to send you yummy food okay? Stay healthy.”

Y/N’s grandfather shook everyone’s hand, thanking them for filling their humble lives with youth and joy for the month. He said good things to them, saying that they are good young men who deserve only the best.

Y/N thanked them as they all hugged her. They were thankful to her for finding Jake and for her being alive. Y/N teared up as they all gave her a letter. 

“Thank you guys.” Y/N smiled, “Whenever I’m feeling down, I’ll read these.”

The members all hugged her again before she whined at the hard hug. They all let go as Jake and Y/N stood there awkwardly looking at each other.

“Come on guys... Let’s give them some space.” Jungwon said

They all walked a little while, giving the two space. Jake finally hands Y/N his letter. He blushes as he hands her the letter. 

“Read this when you’re alone.” Jake says

Y/N laughs, “Why? What’s written here?”

Jake blushes as he shakes his head. Y/N pretends to open it and Jake stops her, grabbing her hands. Y/N laughs but stops when he pulls her into a hug.

“Y/N, I’m thankful that you came into my life when you did. I’m sorry for everything that happened.”Jake said as he hugged her

Y/N blushed but shook her head, slightly pushing him away, “Yah. Would you stop apologizing? What happened, happened. I wouldn't change anything. I’d do it all again if I had to.”

Jake shakes his head, pulling her into a hug again, “Thanks for waking up. Thanks for being alive.”

Y/N laughs as she allows the taller boy to hug her. When he pulls away, he pulls something from his pocket. It was her phone. He hands it to her.

“Don’t change your number. Don’t throw away your phone. Keep it.” Jake says, “Like I said, read the letter when you’re alone.”

Y/N looks at him in confusion before Jake blushes and leans down to kiss her forehead. Y/N blushes as she touches her forehead. 

“Yah, Shim Jaeyun!” Y/N yells

Jake smiles before letting her go and runs over to his members who were teasing him. Jake waves, giving her a bright smile, “Bye Y/N! I’ll see you again!”

Y/N scoffs as she breaks into a smile, waving back as they all waved good-bye back.

When they finally get back to her grandparent’s home, it's quiet. They break out into their own room. Y/N digs out the member’s letters and she sees Jake’s. She takes it out and opens it to read it.

“Dear Y/N,

People might say I’m crazy for saying this despite everything that happened but I don’t care. I just want to say again that I am so sorry that this happened to you. If we had never crossed paths that fateful morning, you wouldn’t have gotten hurt.”

Y/N rolls her eyes at those words.

“I am thankful that we did meet though. I can’t express in writing what I feel because there are no words in Korean or English that could explain how thankful I am to have been fated to meet you. I hope that despite everything, you'll stay in my life and we can be there for each other. It’s selfish of me to ask you this but I hope you feel the same. The members and I have come to adore you and wish you nothing but the best. Y/N, thankful for saving me that day and thank you for being my savior.”

Y/N teared up as she read the last line. She looks closer to the bottom and sees that Jake left a small note. It said, “I saved my number on your phone. Call me when you see this.”

Y/N smiles as she pulls out her phone. She looks through her contacts, seeing that each member gave their numbers to her. She goes to Jake’s, seeing that he saved himself as “The Most Handsome Shim Jaeyun”. She clicks it and presses the call button. It rings once before she hears his voice answering.

“I thought you were never going to call.” Jake said with a light chuckle

Y/N smiled before asking, “Yah, Shim Jaeyun. Why would it be selfish for me to stay in your life?”

Jake laughs again, “Because... Call me crazy but I want you to be in my life forever.”

Y/N smiles before tearing up, “Of course. Forever.”

Jake smiles as he repeats those words again, “Forever.”

“Yaaahhhh~ Jake hyung proposed to Y/N noona!” Niki screamed

Jake laughed, “Give me one second.”

Jake dropped his phone and Y/N could hear the members laughing and screaming, teasing the Aussie boy about his red face and dopey smile. She hears the bottoms of their feet hitting the ground as they run in circles.

“Y/N, do you like Jake hyung then?” Sunoo teased her

Y/N smiled and laughed, “I don’t know. And if I do?”

Sunoo squeals, “They both like each other. This is insane! It’s like a drama.”

Y/N laughs as she hears Jake breathing into the phone, having taken it from Sunoo. They both laugh before she gets a request to FaceTime. Y/N accepts it and sees Jake with a red face and hair all over the place. He gives her a bright smile, “So when’s the next time I’m seeing you?”

Y/N smiles, thinking about her future with the rowdy boys of ENHYPEN.

Rottmnt Snippet #29

Mikey's body shudders against his will, and his trembling fingers start to fall away from the bleeding mess at his side. Hands that aren't his suddenly appear, and they touch his face and press something into his side. Mikey wants to scream at the pain that eats at him, but he only manages to groan.

"Sorry," a voice says, lowly, and Mikey forces his eyes open enough to look for the owner. Color dances before his eyes, and he thinks that he sees blue for a second. "I've got to stop the bleeding until the others get here. The good news is that you're still awake."

"'eo?" Mikey finally manages to move his mouth.

"Awake, but not coherent," the voice says again. The hands slacken at his side for a moment, and then Mikey feels the pressure increase. Another hand appears before Mikey's eyes, and he feels two quick, awkward pats on his head which very much screams not Leo. "I-I'm going to let that slide seeing as you're obviously not in your right mind. You better not let that dumb dumb you hear say that, though. He already thinks we're twins."

His brother's voice rambles on for a bit, but Mikey stops listening. He focuses on the monotone voice - though, it trembles with each word like his brother is trying to calm himself down.

"'onnie?" Mikey tries again after, well, he's not really sure.

"Affirmative," his brother - Donnie - confirms. He pats Mikey's head again like Mikey did something good.

"'m scared," Mikey continues, thinking about how numb he feels.

Donnie's grip tightens, and Mikey feels himself being pulled into the Donnie equivalent of a hug. "I know," his brother states, his voice cracking. "Just hold on a little longer, okay?"

A03 Link

Elenor was getting too old for things like this. She loved Wind, she did, but watching him talk to the fog and apparently getting an answer was pushing her understanding of reality. But whoever was leading him seemed to know where they needed to go. She put aside her lingering questions and walked as quickly as she dated through the entrance of the Deku Tree's home. 

Elenor had to force herself not to look around as a beautiful forest came into view. A comfortable breeze filtered through the trees. Elenor could hear toads and chattering birds as she quickly walked straight to the middle of the forest. The Deku Tree had to be the tall pink one, right? 

Whatever. She had to take care of Wind now. Tree or not, Wind needed his leg treated now. She had put it off for far too long. Elenor heard water nearby and she had the tools needed to bandage the wound if she was frugal with it. Wind was warmer than she would have liked. Elenor walked up to a pedestal holding a rusted sword and sat on the stairs leading up to it. 

Wind leaned heavily on her as she reached for her supplies. 

"I need to fix up your leg, okay?" 

Wind grunted his assent, letting Elenor situated him where she had good enough leverage to do what had to be done. She pulled her hunting knife out of its place in her coat and carefully cut the arrow as closely to his leg as he dared. He didn't cry out as Elenor sawed the arrow away, jostling the wound enough to make it bleed once more. 

"I need to pull this out. Get ready okay?" 

Wind merely gave her a thumbs up from his position.

"Three, two, one." She grasped her knife carefully and quickly making the exit wound larger and yanked the arrow through. 

Wind let out a garbled whimper as Elenor quickly soaked the meter bandages they had with one of their remaining potions, tightly wrapping it around his wound as quickly as she could. 

"It burns." 

"I know, I know. I'm almost done. Hang in there okay?" 

She tied off the wound, eliciting one last scream as it was secured. Elenor cleaned her knife and tucked it away, making sure to make him comfortable. He was still too hot to the touch. 

Damn it to Hylia she had waited too long to fix him up. 

________________________________

Wind had fallen asleep when Elenor heard a rustling in the nearby bushes. A small acorn with a leaf on its head popped out of the bushes. It must've noticed her quickly because it let out a loud squeak and jumped back into the bushes. 

“Hey,” she whispered, not unkindly, “I’m sorry if I startled you. I mean no harm.” The bush rustled slightly. A bit of a bright green leaf poked out from amongst the foliage. Elenor continued, “My friend is hurt and needs a place to rest. Do you know a place where we can sleep? He needs his rest to get better.” 

The acorn dared to put nearly half its leaf out of the bush. Bells jingled as it suffled shyly towards Wind, obviously trying to get a better look. 

She heard it do a high jingle in alarm, then it ran forward quickly, jingling furiously at her. 

“I’m sorry little one, but I can't understand you.” It did an irritated looking dance, then grabbed her pant leg, attempting to pull her to her feet. 

Elenor tried not to laugh, it was cute, but she had more important things to worry about. 

“I can follow you, just show me the way.” 

It stopped so suddenly that it fell back on its bottom. Undeterred, it sprung up quickly, ushering her as she rose, carrying Wind as he slept. It led her past the rusted sword to the roots of the largest tree, right in the middle of the forest. Right to what she assumed was the Deku tree. Not that it had anything to say…it was a tree after all. However, the little seed trotted right up to its roots, revealing a small opening. Once it reached the entrance the little seed stopped and waved at her. It jingled a sweet tune and hopped inside the entrance. 

Elenor hesitated for a moment, trying to think about how to actually get inside the tree. She must have taken too long because the acorn came back out to stomp its feet and jingle at her to come inside. 

“Hey, hey I’m coming. I just don’t want to wake him up, you insistent little-” Elenor walked up the “Deku” trees roots and decided on squatting as she tried walking into the entrance. Thankfully, the room opened up enough for her to stand somewhat, hunching her shoulders as she walked in the tree. The acorn excitedly ushered her to a pile of leaves situated like a bed. There were makeshift pillows and everything. Acorn, as she decided to address it in her mind, let loose another jingle. She could imagine it say TA-DAAA at the top of its little lungs. 

Elenor smiled at the creature, “Thank you, this is perfect.” Carefully she shuffled Wind in her arms, moving the blankets back before setting him down. He subconsciously curled on his side, cuddling the second pillow as Elenor tucked him in. She quietly shushed Acorn. Acorn repeated the gesture back to her as they both quietly stepped out of the room. 

She looked at Acorn, “Do you have a place I can stay? I don’t want to disturb him. He’s had a rough day.” 

Acorn thought for a moment, then jingled as it nodded and turned. It led her to a smaller space with another bed. The exception being that this one was merely a pile of leaves on the ground with no frame or mattress. 

“Thank you.” Acorn jingled what she assumed was a “You’re Welcome!” When Acorn wasn’t being impatient it was rather sweet. Elenor moved into the room and set down their bags as she settled in the blankets. Her mind drifted to Kit for a moment. She was sure he could take care of himself, but that didn’t stop her from worrying. She prayed to Hylia that he would show up soon. There was nothing she could do now. Just rest and take care of Wind tomorrow morning. 

Acorn came in with several friends carrying a basket. Within she could see supplies; jars of medicinal herbs, potions, some seeds. Elenor gasped, touched by their kindness. This was enough to get Wind through his fever and then some. 

“Not to sound like a broken song, but thank you.” Acorn jingled happily and saluted Elenor as it rushed all its friends out of the room. It stopped just short of the entrance and shushed her as it hopped out of eyesight. 

Elenor laughed. Guess it was time for bed. She laid down, got as comfortable as she could, and fell into a heavy sleep.
