Abyss999

[Disclaimer: Gore and Mature Content] 
Kaiser, an orphan, had left Germany to live with his uncle in Lewis Center, USA. Far from his tragic childhood, he befriended five unconventional boys. Together, they hung out, endured boring classes, and faced rejection from girls. Their ordinary lives took a drastic turn when Ben, one of them, was bitten and turned into a vampire by his crush.  

The revelations kept coming when Yuki, another member of the group, confessed to being a Zodiac—one of the last hunters tracking down Wunders, malevolent supernatural creatures.  

Kaiser soon discovered a dark world where all his suspicions turned out to be true… And the Mysterienkult was after him. His mother’s tragic death had not been an accident after all.

The Oldest Dream of Eternal Night

The Lewis Center hospital smelled of antiseptic and desolation, a sour mix that clung to the throat. The buzzing lights in the entrance hall cast a pale glow on the beige walls, where yellowed infection prevention posters hung. Hassan and Kaiser walked through the automatic doors, their sneakers squeaking on the worn linoleum. Hassan, his glasses slightly crooked, adjusted his gray sweatshirt, his nervous gaze scanning the reception. Kaiser, true to his nonchalant demeanor, chewed gum, hands buried in the pockets of his black hoodie, his eyes still a bit too bright from the residue of his antidepressants.

The receptionist, a fifty-something woman with gray hair pulled into a bun, tapped lazily on her keyboard. Her badge read "Martha." Hassan approached, clearing his throat. "Uh, hello. Excuse me. We're here to see a patient who's being discharged today. Carter Hakim."

Martha looked up, her glasses sliding down her nose.
