dead man walking.

unfortunately, mingyu didn’t have a great track record of making the best decisions when his vision is clouded by the insatiable desire for vengeance. he was afraid of this. when he first witnessed the broadcast and predicted what would come, he prayed that he wouldn’t be affected this way. finally, during a peaceful period in his life, something has to force itself into existence that would turn everything upside down. it’d been a long time since mingyu came face to face with this version of himself. he was desperate for things to remain the way that they had been, not for everything to shift, the changes digging their claws into his existence and refusing to let him be. he felt himself slipping, which left him absolutely terrified.
nothing felt right. and he’d be ashamed to say it, but wonwoo was the last thing on his mind after he made his way into the crowd, witnessing the death of one of his people. it was as sickening as watching a member of the family be slaughtered right before his eyes. it made something snap inside of him.
not wanting hydrus to feel invincible and as if they could take whatever they want, including the peace of the innocent civilians around them, he took it upon himself to attempt alleviating some of the chaos. he helped a person or two before coincidentally stumbling upon two hydrus members tormenting one of his own. he wasn’t sure what they wanted with the other phoenix member, but he took it upon himself to step in... they had no right.
