He slowly inhaled the cancerous smoke and blew it out leisurely. He didn’t smoke often, but with everything he had on his mind, he needed something to calm his nerves. He tapped the end of the cancer weilding object with his pinky, and watched the ashes blew in the wind. Distracted by the simple sight, he jumped when someone placed their hand on his shoulder and the tabacco slipped from between his fingers.
"Aish,” he said not turning around to face the person. “That was all I had on me.”
“What a shame,” a cold, emotionless voice sounded.
His body went ridged at the sound of the mysterious person’s voice, and then relaxed. He had known this day would come eventually. Snorting, he shook his head, and turned around to face the other man. “What are you doing here?” Seeing the other five men behind him holding various weapons in their hands, he answered his own question.
The mysterious man smirked. “Oh, but you already know the answer.” He checked out his surroundings and let out a long sigh. “Besides, I could ask you the same thing? Although, it’s not strange for someone as weird as you to be enjoying a long drag of tabacco outside of a cemetery.”
The muscle in his jaw tightened. “It’s the only place I can find peace in these days. That and YoungMi’s bedroom.” His voice was just as cold as the other mans. He was trying to press his buttons. He at least wanted to get a thrill out of the situation before they tortured him.
“You…,” the other man stopped himself and his chin raised. “I warned you, but you wouldn’t listen, so now you’ll have to pay.”
The corner of his mouth twitched, and his voice softened a little. “Whether you like it or not, I love her. You’ll have to kill me before I let her go, and even then, I’ll always be with her.”
The other man smiled now and nodded his head. “Yah, I guess I’ll have to kill you then.”
He took a step backwards towards the cemetery and the other man followed.
“Don’t try anything stupid, because even if I don’t catch you, I guarantee one of my men will.”
But he didn’t care, and took his chances anyway.

His eyes fluttered open as he struggled to breathe. His vision was blurry, but he could see someone was suddenly over him. When he tried to scramble away out of fear, he realized that he couldn’t move. He tried to scream, but his throat refused and all that escaped him was a whimper.
“It’s okay. I’m not going to hurt you,” a deep male voice soothed. “Can you hear me?”
He tried to nod his head, but failed.
“If you can hear me, blink once. If not blink twice,” he said kneeling further over him.
He blinked once.
“Okay, I need you to listen to me very carefully.”
He blinked once again as if to say ‘okay’.
He smiled sadly down at him. “You’ve been badly injured.” He sighed. “I don’t know if you’ll make it to tomorrow. Most mortals wouldn’t even survive the injuries you have.”
‘Mortals?’ he thought.
“Yes, mortals,” He said reading his thoughts.
His eyes widened.
“I can save your life, but I need you to help me. I have a proposition for you. Are you willing to listen?”
He blinked once.
