NO ONE P.O.V

Every being had its own beliefs.

The werewolves believe that the moon goddess send the blue moon as a blessing for them and believe that if they pray during the night when the blue moon raise, they would be blessed and protected by the spirit of the moon.

The elves believe that the new moon in the middle of the year will grant them prosperity. They would celebrate the new moon and make the new moon festival for at least seven days.

The Vampire believes that the moon that appears during the morning only happened twice a year and they call it the morning moon. In their tradition, they would go hunting in the morning and bring back their hunt as they make a huge ritual as a sign of gratitude to the morning moon for allowing them to hunt in the morning.

Every creature had their own beliefs in the moon goddess or some would call it 'the spirit of the moon'

The same goes for the witches.

They believe that there is that one time in centuries when the moon shine so bright that they could see the light in the middle of the day and that day is the day when Rose was born. The witches believe that Rose is the child that had been touched by the moon.

The royal forecaster told them that Rose will grow up to be a powerful Queen, that when the realm fell apart, she will hold the witch's kingdom from falling. She will be the mightiest ruler the witch's kingdom will ever have.

Rose become the apple of everyone. People love her and respect her, the entire realm is so focused on her. When Rose was 4 she got a little sister, Lilith, Rose was the happiest when she get her little sister. Both of them are so close to each other.

Just like Jungkook and Jennie.

But Lilith is not Jennie. Growing up, Lilith didn't get the parental love that she deserve, to her, everything was about Rose, Rose, and Rose. Lilith grew jealous and the jealousy turn into hatred. Through the year, the two royal siblings grew apart. Lilith always keeps to herself and she hates everything around her.

She doesn't even come for Rose's coronation.

To her, she doesn't see what is so special in Rose that people bow to her. Rose just took away her life and she felt that she is more worthy for the throne rather than a pampered princess like her big sister. Lilith hates Rose and she makes it obvious.

But Rose loves her so much and tries to fix their relationship, Lilith would just lash out at her and disappear for a few days. That's why... A happy and perfect family that we saw had their own problem behind those closed doors.

"The blame was my own, and the punishment was hers." Rose said as she hugged herself and walk down the hall with Jungkook beside her "If I wasn't born that night, Lilith would get the same love as me. Just because people adore me more, they forgot that Lilith is also a princess like me and ignore her like she is nothing."

Jungkook purse his lips, he doesn't know what to say. He had experienced this but the only difference is, he was abused rather than loved. So instead of growing apart, both he and Jennie learned to lean on each other. He could just offer to listen to her problem because he really doesn't have any advice for her.

A heavy sigh left her lips as she shake her head and chuckle "I shouldn't share this with you, now I felt embarrassment for having such a flaw in my life." She says pathetically "It's a flaw Rose, you know that. I really don't have knowledge of this issue but all I can say is, you did well. At least, you've tried to help her. It's her choice to choose whether she should help herself or not."

Rose keeps silent for a moment as she decides to change the topic "It's had past midnight, why aren't you asleep yet?" Knowing what she intended to do, Jungkook just play along. He clears his throat and purses his lips as he glances at Rose.

"I need your help."

β€’β€’β€’β€’β€’

"The purpose of a Trueblood? Why did you ask?" She asked the Trueblood as she led them to the royal library. Jungkook sighed "I don't know how to say it but- if you can answer that question, I'll tell you why." He says as Rose nod "Then, follow me, maybe there is something that would help."

Jungkook just nods as both of them enter the library. Rose grab a small lamp and bring him to the very back of the library, it was dark and dusty as if no one had entered this area for too long. "I'm sorry, it's a bit dusty. I've rarely come here since the important books are on the outer section, so we would find it easier."

She explains, probably knowing what he is thinking but Jungkook just swiftly nods, totally understanding what happened. They reach the end of the hall and was met with the wall, Rose pause and hesitates but Jungkook speaks before she did "I promise, Rose, I'll keep this place as a secret."

Hearing that Rose nodded, knowing that he would never go back on his words. She brings up her hand and caresses the wall before stopping at one specific brick. She put some pressure on it and the brick was pushed like a switch. The walk moved and a dark path appear behind it.

"Follow me." She said as she enter the path instantly, Jungkook follow after her. The lamp that she is holding the light up the path as they just follow it "This is where our ancient book was stored. If we seek help and knowledge that are impossible, we will come here and ask our ancestor." She says as they keep walking.

"Uh... Will your ancestor answer?" Jungkook asks curiously "Depends... If there is an answer, they'll let us know. If there is no answer, they won't respond. Let's just hope that you would have some luck on this one." She says and shrugs. Soon enough they reached a huge room with a gigantic statue in the middle of it.

The statue was a woman with three faces and six arms (With no intention to offend anyone) each palm had something written on them in Korean letter. Fire, Earth, Wind, Water, Life, and lastly Death. Rose stood in front of the cave as she passed the orb towards Jungkook and soon kneel down and lower her head.

"Greetings, our mightiest ancestor. I've come here with a favor that I hoped you could help me with." She says. Jungkook just bow his head, respecting her ancestor. Rose stood up and pick a small stone on the ground as she went to Jungkook and grab his arm "What are you- ouch!"

The Trueblood wince when she cut his palm causing the blood to come out. She brings his bleeding palm in front of the statue as the blood slowly drips to the ground. Rose soon let go of his palm, she touch his blood and wrote Fire, Earth, Wind, Water, Life, and Death around it.

Lastly, she draw a line on her own palm using his blood "I'll cast a spell and you have to sit beside me as you focused the question from your heart, that's the only way for it to reach my ancestor." She said as Jungkook just nod and sat beside her.

Both of them take a deep breath and flutter their eyes close. Rose chants the spell softly as Jungkook speaks up his question from his heart. Silence engulfs them soon after as Jungkook hesitantly and slowly peaks a little through his left eyes. Nothing happened. He opened his eyes and look around, literally nothing so he turn to Rose only to see that she is still closing her eyes.

"Rose-"

"Shhhh..."

As soon as she shushes him the entire place tremble causing Jungkook to flinch and look around once again. Some kind of green light appeared on the wall and moved straight to the statue. The green light climbs up on the statue and gather on its forehead.

Jungkook was startled when the statue's eyes snap open as it shined green. The green light on its forehead suddenly shot down on his blood on the ground causing him to flinch and back off in surprise. The green light soon fade away as the statue's eyes closed once again and everything went back like before.

Rose flutter her eyes open, unbothered as she inches close to the ritual that she had drawn with Jungkook's blood. Reading what was written, a frown appear on her face. "Kook, you should see this." She calls as Jungkook sighs and takes a deep breath before approaching Rose.

A frown appeared on his face as he saw the writing "What is this? It's some kind of witch's ancient writing. Do I look like a witch like you? I can't understand." He sassed as Rose huffed but still proceed to tell him the meaning of it.

"Born once in centuries, which represents the Trueblood like you who only exist once in centuries. Tested with hardships and disaster, I think this had something to do with the world. The one who will keep everything from falling apart..." Rose went silent soon after as a deep frown appeared on her face.

"Why? What does it mean?" Rose let out a breath upon hearing that as she turn towards Jungkook "Kook, whatever I was about to tell you is just a prediction, there is barely any possibility for this to happen." Jungkook gulped as nervousness built in his heart when he heard that.

Rose sighed "I think, something will befall Ustea, something bad, that Ustea will be on the Verge of Death. The fate of a Trueblood is heavy, Jungkook. If a Trueblood was born it meant the realm is on the verge of Death and the Trueblood will stop it from dying."

Jungkook let out a heavy breath when he heard that "but Jungkook, something is wrong with your fate." He lifts his left eyebrow "What do you mean?" Rose looks back at the writing "look at the last sentence." She says as Jungkook glance back at the writing.

"It says right here, but this time it will be the opposite." A deep frown appears on the Trueblood's face as he looks back at Rose who is already looking at him "Jungkook, you are the reason why a disaster befalls Ustea." She admits and points up towards one of the statue's hands.













"You are 'Death'"
