The Lost Prince's

The Lost Prince's
Chapter 16 Anger and Emotions



"Go! Leave me alone!!", I cried more like snapping. Rushed away.


Go into the forest. I need to clear my head for a second. Just for a second, please,


far from anyone. Far from blood. I threw myself to sit on the edge


the river, quite deep in the forest. It sucks! This really sucks!!


Even though I said that I would survive without turning into a monster,


honestly, I'm not sure anymore. I don't know how much longer I can hold on


like these. My body is sick and half dead. And I don't know how long


again I can maintain my consciousness and my thoughts that have recently begun


fading.


It's been a month since I've been in a condition like this. I knew I didn't have much time left, so I went back to asking about the vanBlood trail investigation. But hunter's organization still


haven't found the location of the vampire yet. And Zero made a proposal, he thinks


you can ask for help from your friend.


"It only takes a few days. But before that, you have to take a glass of blood"


"What??!!"


"i'm serious. You can't do anything with conditions like that. You're just gonna


be a barrier, Key"


"Zero..!" Shane was about to chim in but Zero didn't stop talking.


"What's? You want to defend him? You know what I'm saying is true, why nothing is


saying it. The vampire we are about to face is a pureblood. You guys


hunter also understood how powerful purebloods were. It doesn't matter if Key has great abilities


for an ex-human, against a pureblood with fighting experience


for hundreds of years, he had no hope of winning" Zero stared back


into my eyes. "This mission is tantamount to suicide"


"I don't care! Stop meddling in my business"


"I'm trying to help! Now it's your turn, if you still insist on retaliating


revenge then you must tame your thirst. Or just throw out your intentions"


"You crazy?! How could I have locked it up!"


"In exchange, I will avenge


revenge is for you"


My eyes grew bigger, not believing my own hearing. "Why?!


Why do you keep interfering?!! I'll kill him with my hands


by yourself!!"


"You can't, leave it to me.."


"Listen, Zero, I will definitely kill him with this hand! And I don't need help


from vampires like you!!"


I slammed the door in the back


my back. Letting my feet take me running into the woods. I stopped at


under the auspices of a pohohn on the bank of a small river. Look at my shadow in


the river's surface. I haven't seen myself in a long time. I


almost forgot how I looked. I sat on the thin grass, too, sighing


breaths. Trying to feel the peaceful energy I always get from the forest.


"Sister..are you okay?"


I raised my face, looking at Karen who was standing behind me.


Small smile. I wish I could answer that I'm okay, but


it seems like it can't anymore.


Karen was sitting next to me on the grass. "I'm..."


"You want to say the same thing"


Karen did not nod, but did not dodge. "I know I'm not entitled


saying so, brother became like this because of me"


"I told you it's not your fault"


"But that doesn't change the fact that you're going through all this to protect me!


Why...why did you sacrifice your brother's life for me? Even


now.." Karen's eyes turned red and tears began to pool


his eye-pleasers. "I don't want this, brother. I don't want you


die. Not for me and not for revenge"


"Listen, Karen..."


"No, listen to me!" Karen didn't let me shift the subject. "I will


become more powerful organized hunter. I will be strong to protect myself.


Because of that.Sister from now on must live for himself brother"


Karen took my hand. "Please. It doesn't matter whether


you become a vampire or a monster. My brother will always be my sister"


My tears roll down my cheeks. I understand Karen's feelings. But


even so, I don't want to be a blood-sucking monster. I can't


living like that.I don't


want. I think Karen is the one who understands me the most, but.


apparently, Shane understood better. He only discussed this issue once


with me. Shane knows very well why I don't want to be a bloodsucker. Him


even promised to help me. But someone seems to disagree with


shane's actions. He started the same fight again the previous time


just died down.


"You guys spoil him by acting like he is


the humans. Don't forget what danger can happen if he continues to drift inside


dream and reject his thirst..."


"Enough!", I cried to stop Zero's rant.


"I didn't forget, so stop talking like you know everything!"


"I will not waste my energy by repeating


the same words if only you..."


"I won't do it! Until whenever you


telling me to drink blood, I won't do it!!" Without knowing me


yells. Let alone. I don't give a shit. I sniffed and turned away.


It doesn't matter if I don't have a destination, as long as I can get away from it


a shitty vampire who likes to set up named Zero. I can't take it anymore


with him. Shane called me many times but I'm not going back there.


I started running as fast as I could. I stopped when it was far enough away.


My runs are too tight for a human size. Again just reminded me


the fact that I'm starting to lose the human side in me. Sucks.


The sky is not on my side. Thunder boomed


above the city. I don't know where the cloudy herd that rolled up came from,


the sky is full of gray. No need to change minutes


rain fell to the earth. Drops of water fell on my hair, I started running small


to one of the bus stops. This morning the weather forecast did not come down


rained. I was soaked in rain for less than 5 minutes. That bus stop


blank. There's no one at all. I was standing there alone. But no


a 10-year-old boy ran towards the stop.


Strange, his footsteps looked awkward. I watched his feet as he


come close. Apparently he's hurt. Maybe just fell. Mudsticks


looks on his pants and shirt. And.I smell that fishy thick smell


familiars. The blood!


'Drink that! Aren't you thirsty? He's just a kid. It's easy to drink it.'


Who is talking? That voice....from inside my head?!


No. gabe. I'm not gonna do it!


It's strange! My body does not move according to my will. My feet


i..i grin!


"Sister!", exclaimed Karen. A new bus stopped, though,


Karen burst out as soon as the door opened, running to hug me.


Damnit damnit! I can't stop!


Karen turned towards the little boy, stalking him away


from me. Karen gave the boy her umbrella so he could go home. I


must control myself immediately, otherwise I will definitely chase after the child


that small. I close my teeth and immerse my fingernails under my skin


my thigh. Blood poured out of my wounds. Sensations of pain begin to appear. And


I slowly regained control of my body.


"God! What are you doing?", exclaimed Karen


I turned around and saw blood pouring out of my thighs.


"It's not a problem" I smiled soothingly


Karen, remember the vampire's spit ability. I'm sitting on the stop floor, starting


licking the blood coming out of my wound. Surprisingly my wounds don't look close


back at all.


"Stupid..", muttered the most unwilling voice.


I hear this moment. Zero was already standing behind me, drenched. "You


haven't been a vampire yet, so your spit can't close the wound. Let


i'm..."


"Don't come any closer, Zero! I don't need your help!


Don't touch me!!"


Zero stopped his steps, freezing on the spot. She might


surprised or hurt by my words, but I don't care at all.


Stupid timing.


"Sister, we have to do something with the wound


that" Karen said, trying to persuade me.


Forget that! I don't need Zero's help. I take off


my sweater and tied it to my injured thigh, stopped my blood


keep pouring.


"Key, I promise I won't drink your blood, if


that's what you're worried about. So let me..."


"No. That's not. I hate you! I don't want you


touched me!" I rise to my feet. My shoulder feels numb. Quite a lot


my blood came out earlier. But I don't have time to worry about it.


"I'm okay now. Karen, can you call a cab?"


Karen just nodded. Apparently he decided to shut up


and restrain himself. I'm sure he wants to persuade me to accept help


Zeros. But he knew more than anyone that it was for nothing.


When she gets home, Shine and Shane are shocked to see the bandages


sewater at my feet. Karen was kind enough to tell me what happened to her


them. Apparently he had seen the incident a while before.


That's why he took the bus to the stop I was at, to


stopped me. If Karen hadn't come on time, I might have


it sucked the little boy's blood.


"..But what does it mean you can't control


your body?", asked Shane.


"I don't know either. It's like that time” I


remembering the time I lost consciousness and ended up in the isolation room because


attacking a human disciple. “A voice appeared inside my head and


my body moves against my will"


"Someone's controlling you? Could it be...?",


timpal Shine's.


"VanBlood" As usual Zero suddenly appeared


out of nowhere and override the conversation. His clothes still look wet.


"He used his blood inside Key's body"


"But, how could it be?", asked Shine.


"One of the pureblood abilities is their blood


by oneself. Pureblood blood belongs to the pureblood, no matter where the blood is


be in. That's why he can control it"


Karen's breath was stifled hearing Zero's explanation.


"No way..."


"It's finally happening, we can't


let it last a long time, Zero said. "Hunter still can't


found the location?"


Shine shakes. "Sorry.." Looks like they


too busy with madvampire and the issue of the return of missing cast.


"I'm going to ask my friend for help. We could


find it faster"


"Thank God then" said Shine, trying


lowering tension.


Shane threw his eyes at me. "By the way


we need to do something with your feet. A girl cannot have


the scars, right?"


"I don't have a problem with this" I said no


cared.


"Why don't you help her, Zero?", chirps


The shine.


Shane threw an incomprehensible look at Zero


hinting at Shane, Zero stepped towards me, but he just handed over


the plastic pack he took out of his jacket pocket on Karen. Then he


turn to the stairs without a word. She's upset.


"Eh? What's wrong with her?", asked Shine confusedly.


Karen opened the plastic wrap in her hand,


removing a bottle of disinfectant, wound medicine, and a scar removal ointment


wound. A smile appeared on Karen's face. "Sister Shine, my brother


this stubborn one is unwilling to accept Zero's help. He must be angry"


"Why is that? Uh, is that medicine? Don't tell him


bother buying. He can treat with his saliva..."


Karen and Shine started to argue with me as if I were


not sitting in front of them. God, what possessed Karen? Him


really trying to get back to being her old self. Even in conditions


we the ones now? He could have talked about the incident and my frustration


on Zero is like a typical teenage story. Me, half a vampire who barely


losing control and on the other hand there is a psychopathic vampire with no feelings


who continue to interfere with my life. From any point of view I can't


understand how this can be considered ordinary and used as chat material.


Shane doesn't seem to understand Shine's twin point of view either


by oneself. He chose to go to the kitchen to grab a packet of snacks and a bottle of soda.
