Hendery stood in front of his father, covered in black blood and smiling weakly. "Pa.. just- kill me, can you? You're strong enough to do it, just- please... at least it would stop the pain- They- they- How do they even get the- how could they hurt Dejun like that? How could they beat Lucas up and put Dejun in a car accident? Now- now my angel's in a coma and Lucas is wounded so badly he can't even move-"

Jaehyun stared at his son, who was desperate. He steadied his voice, and sucked in a breath. "And your solution is to die? How will you help the two of them by dying?" "They're being attacked because OF ME!" Jaehyun gripped his son's shoulders, forcing the prince to look into his eyes. "Well do you want revenge or do you want to let them get hurt even more?"

Hendery froze, his eyes glowing red. "I'm going to make them pay." Jaehyun smiled weakly. "That's my son.." he sighed, pulling out a card from his pocket. "Go find the person on this card. He can help you get stronger, I'll protect them for you when you're gone along with your dad."

Hendery nodded, taking the card, and walked out of the room, stepping over the bodies in the corridor, like they were nothing but rubbish, then headed towards the garage for his bike.

The walls in his house had been nearly painted red and black by both human and vampire blood, and Hendery clenched his teeth, thinking of everything that happened on the day of the performance.

Everything was going well, Hendery was having his makeup done with his makeup artist, sitting in his dress as he smiled and thought about the performance. He stepped out 30 minutes later, and headed to find Dejun and Lucas. "Hendery!" Jeno yelled, then jogged up to him, pointing at the ring on his finger. "You have to take that off, the wedding ring in the play, remember? Here, put it in this ring box."

Hendery was hesitating to take it off, but he didn't know why, and after a few minutes, he took it off and put the ring in the box, putting it into his locker.

"Dejun!" he smiled after seeing the boy in his armor. "You look nice." Xiaojun turned around from talking to Lucas, and gaped at Hendery. "You look really pretty!" he exclaimed in chinese, staring at Hendery. "I think I fell in love with you at first sight!" Hendery let out a small 'Ahh!' but smiled as he heard that.

"The both of you look incredible." Hendery smiled, looking at Lucas's and Xiaojun's costumes. "HENDERY GET TO YOUR PLACE ITS STARTING IN 5, 4, 3, 2, 1!" 

Hendery ran to his place, and the curtains were drawn, the play starting.

The royals were waiting outside, fully prepared for their plan, reading to ruin three people's lives.

The play was almost ending, and the curtains were drawn, and Hendery was rushed off to the clothing room, changing from his purple dress into a bridal gown, then rushed back onto stage, the curtains opening right on time.

Xiaojun slid a ring onto his finger, and the priest in the play smiled, reading the vows, and Dejun could only stare at how beautiful Hendery looked in that dress. "Do you take Princess Diana as your bride?" "I do." "Do you take-" Hendery didn't even give the priest a chance to finish his sentence. "I do." 

And with that, he leaned towards Dejun, kissing him for the first time in months. He couldn't before, because of all those royals watching, but on the stage he could, and the wedding bells rang, flowers scattered from above by Jeno, and he smiled as he felt Dejun's lips against his, and the curtains were drawn, cheers erupting from the crowd. 

The curtains were pulled apart soon, and everyone stepped out, grabbing each other's hands, and then bowed, bidding goodbye to the school, earning roars of approval from the audience.

"Hendery! You were brilliant, interrupting the priest!" Jeno grinned at him, then told him to go change. Dejun and Lucas had already changed, and Lucas left early to go to basketball practice, not noticing the people that silently followed him out.

Dejun had promised to go somewhere with Ten as well, so he changed quickly and left, driving Lucas's motorcycle. 

Hendery had changed out of the dress, and was walking around the theatre hall after taking his makeup off, and headed towards his lockers, pulling out the ring box, and took the 'wedding ring' he was wearing off, and just as he was about to put the ring back on, he noticed some words etched on the inside of the ring.

'The bearer of this ring belongs to Xiao Dejun.'

The pounding in his head came back, and he could hear his own voice ringing in his head.

"I love you and no one and nothing is going to change that. I'll love you until the day I die, and my soul will carry my love for you up to the sky, and I'll be your lighthouse when you need me. I probably won't go to heaven but I'll raise hell just to save you."

Lighthouse.. lighthouse... Dejun's lighthouse... and he remembered. All the past memories flooded into his head, forcing him onto his knees as the prince laughed, the pain hitting him but he didn't care. He could see the memories in his head now.

His chest started pounding, but he ignored it, remembering how he met Dejun, the way he pushed him onto the lunch bench on the first day they met, how flustered the boy had been in swimming class, the day he actually asked Dejun out, the teddy bear prank, and how he died for Dejun, he remembered everything. Every single small detail of his memories, he remembered it. The pull in his chest grew, and Hendery's eyes snapped open, finally remembering what the pull meant.

Danger.

Hendery teleported out of the school, grabbing his motorcycle, then speeded towards the direction his chest was pulling him, hoping he wasn't too late for whatever happened, and something was wrong. There was a truck parked right in the middle of the road, stopping his motorbike, and Hendery swore, getting off his bike, then dived under the truck, crawling over to the other side, and started running.

Running towards where the danger was, worry striking fear into him. 

And for the first time in his life, he was too late. That truck had made him too late. Hendery stared in horror at the scene in front of him. A motorcycle had crashed and impaled itself into one of the buildings, and it crashed into a giant truck. The driver had been thrown off, and Hendery ran over to the driver, begging that it wasn't who he thought it was.

Dejun lay there, his body limp, and Hendery could see how nearly all his bones were broken, twisted in terrifying angles that shouldn't have been possible, and tore his phone out, calling the hospital, struggling to stay calm, his brain not letting him focus enough for him to teleport, and then he screamed in agony, collapsing next to Dejun, muttering silent prayers as he stared at the human next to him who looked so fragile, his face covered in blood. Hendery looked up, just accidentally scanned the truck that crashed into Dejun, and froze.

The symbol on the truck window was too familiar for his liking. Way too familiar. It was the vampire royal's crest, right there as a sticker. The royals had made this happen, they had crashed onto Dejun on purpose. Hendery screamed again, barely able to contain the blazing fury in his veins, begging for Xiaojun to wake up, but he got no response. There was a weak pulse in him, and Hendery's chest was throbbing now, the pain hitting him harder than ever.

The ambulance arrived, made sure Dejun was still alive, and drove off with him towards the hospital. Hendery's chest hurt even more, and then right after Dejun left, he realized something was wrong. His chest wasn't pulling him towards where Xiaojun was, it was pulling him towards the basketball court Lucas trained at.

"Xuxi.." he gasped, then ran, teleporting into the basketball court. He was late again, and Lucas lay there, his body bloody and bruised, clearly beaten up by a large group of people. "Xuxi, xuxi, stay with me, please, please be alive-" Hendery listened for a pulse, and he felt one, very faint, but it was there. "Lucas, lucas, please, hold on for me, okay?" the prince asked, and swept Xuxi up, teleporting into the hospital, screaming for a doctor, his hands covered in both Lucas's and Xiaojun's blood, but he didn't care about the blood, he watched as Lucas was reeled into the emergency room, and he collapsed on a chair, fury burning in his veins. 

"I'll murder them.. I'll kill them one by one..."

"Please don't die.."
