"what can a weak princess like you do?" One of the guards scoffed, the rest laughing along with him

"Didn't you just see me knock down your little buddy just now?" Aecha chuckled, as she sliced the measly vampire's throat.

"Princess Aecha!" Another guard said as two other squads of guards entered the room

"Fight me. All of you. I fucking dare you"

"Or are you too scared?"

"Us? Scared? Why would we be scared of an inexperienced human—"

Screams.

Blood.

Silence.

All 40 guards were dead cold on the floor.

Aecha let out a laugh, she couldn't tell if she was going crazy or... going crazy?

It was like something had taken over her body.

Her breath was shaky, her eyes were shining green and blood painted her white and black dress.

"Call me a human again, I'll make sure your whole bloodline will be dead." She gritted through her teeth as she held up the guard by his neck in her hand.

She wasn't sure where she managed to gain this sudden strength from, this guard felt as light as a feather.

Aecha stabbed straight through his heart, and dropped his body onto the floor.

She let out a manic laugh.

"Aecha?" Jungwon's voice cried out

She slowly turned around, to see the seven vampires at the door. Their faces full of horror.

"Are you ashamed of what I've done, Jungwon?" She asked the boy, swifting herself to be right in front of him.

"Just— let me go home!" Not letting the boy speak, she was already picking up her bag by the portal

"Why does she look.. different?" Ni-ki stated

"Something is off with her—"

"Kim Aecha, move away from that portal now." Sunoo commanded her, his eyes glowing golden yellow

"No."

"—how?"

"Blue blood"

"Aecha! Step away from that portal, right this instant!"  The King ordered her, as him, the Queen and Jungwon's parents arrived at the scene.

The Queen and Jungwon's mother gasped at the mass amount of dead bodies on the floor, and the girl with the blood painted dress.

"Why should I be listening to you, your highness? I'm just a filthy human after all~" Aecha replied

"Aecha. Please, you can't leave. Just listen to me this once" Jungwon held onto her hands

"Why can't I leave? I should be going back to where I really belong, right?" Aecha flicked Jungwon's grip off of her

"You don't understand, Earth is—"

"Of course I don't understand, Jungwon!
I never seem to understand, do I?!"

Aecha stepped back , and the portal let out a strong gust of wind before she had to take one last step back home

"Somebody! Stop her!"

Aecha laid back into the portal that engulfed her, as Jungwon reached out for her.
