I literally screamed in agony, pain pulsed through my head, he proved my mind for answers.
His cold eyes stared into my eyes, his face was emotionless, he looked like an older version of that psychic boy.
A grin crossed his face as my vampire was forced back inside, a golden light radiated off my skin.
My skin instantly began to tan, my eyes glowed golden, I was paralyzed but my mind instantly became more powerful.
His smile turned to grimace as I forced my way back into his head, a golden ring wrapped around his pupils.
His memories flooded my mind as I used reverse psychology.
(Ivan's POV)
I was always an outcast, my parents thought I was autistic, little did they know what flowed through my veins.
I grew up isolated, I could hear people's thoughts, feel what they felt, the power overwhelmed me and drove me insane.
When my parents had their second child, my little brother Nicholas, they realized what we really were.
Psychic, my religious parents believed we were monsters and the way they treated me and my brother was horrible.
Then that day came, I opened the door, and heard a loud screaming, I ran upstairs as I felt fear through my psychic connection.
My parents tried to drown my brother, my brothers scream began to grow so loud the mirror shattered.
Then the fear and anger inside me was unleashed as the shards levitated, they flew into my parents.
I grabbed my brother and held onto him so tightly, as the blood soaked through my clothes the only thing on my mind was protecting him.
(Abel's POV)
My mind left his, I felt this god like power coursing through my veins like he had started a car.
My judgement was made, "You will be punished" the voice of my observer and humanity rang in harmony.
I lifted my hand, the oxygen started to leave his body and enter the room, his face began to turn purple.
"No!" The voice of my vampire rang out compassionately, my fangs fought their way out.
I fell to my knees and grabbed the sides of my head, pain rang through my body, the white door slid open.
I was flung against the wall, the little boys eyes were bloodshot, "Titus" Ivan said quickly.
The boy was corrupted by insanity, "I understand you Ivan, I know what it's like to feel like a monster" my vampire tried to reason with him.
"Even my own soul thinks I'm a monster" he said softly, our legs have out, Ivan's eyes became soft.
"Who are you?" He muttered to himself quietly, blood poured from his eyes and nose as he waved his hand.
His brother collapsed, he picked him up and threw him over his shoulder, "we have to go" he said quickly.
"You're helping me?" I asked as my feet touched the ground, he wiped his face quickly.
"Actually you're going to have to help me" he said powerlessly, I nodded, he ran out the door.
"Your friend is down the hall" he said, the golden light hadn't faded from my skin and it burned through my vampire skin.
Eric stood there watching the clock, I tore the door down, "Eric!" I cried, sirens began to ring.
His head turned and he looked at me like I was a stranger, "it's me, we have to go" I yelled.
He looked like a little boy, "he has the mentality of before he was turned, he's basically three" Ivan said with sorrow.
"Did you do this?" I asked him as anger flooded my body, he shook his head and put his hand up defensively.
"No it was the observer" he said quickly, there was only two of us, it couldn't have been Calvin.
"We can fix him memories never truly vanish" Ivan said grabbing my hand, warmth flooded my body.
"I'm sorry Eric" I said softly, I touched him and lust flooded his body, he looked at me like I was amazing.
A golden ring circled his pupils, he walked after us, "there's the exit!" Ivan shouted.
Two huge doors blocked our way, and I could hear armed guards coming towards us.
I punched the doors and it didn't even dent, Eric looked at me struggling and walked to the door.
His fingers tore through it like it was nothing, he ripped it down and through them down the hall, they crushed several guards like flys.
I looked at him scared as he smiled as he watched the security guards die, I grabbed his hand.
We ran outside, "well well well" I heard his voice, chills ran down my spine, he stood there with an excited look on his face.
Tim's dad stood there bravely, "I'll kill you!" I promised, the only thing holding me back was my love for his son.
A black ring glowed around his pupils, "no you won't Abel" he grinned cockily, I cracked my fingers.
Eric darted for him at full speed, he was a blur, a sickening feeling came over me as Eric was held in mid air.
He rotated so that he was facing me, black began to radiate off Tim's dads skin like the gold had off mine.
Eric began screaming in agony, tears stung my eyes as his neck cracked and blood began pouring from his chest from some unknown wound.
Fire ignited his skin, this man was far too powerful, "stop!!" I screamed, the flames went out and I ran to his side.
His veins began to darken as a slow and painful death began to make its way over him.
"Eric please don't go" I cried, my tears dropped onto his face, he stroked my face.
"Abel, I always loved you, I just wish I had protected you from the start, maybe you would love me the way you love Tim" he choked out.
"I love you too Eric, please stop" I cried, he smiled at me admitting it, why was he smiling.
"In my 1000's of years not ever have I felt like this" he said as his hand rubbed his chest.
"I can die happily" he said softly, his skin began to turn black as his body started turning to ash.
"No!" I screamed, his fingers slipped through mine and like that he was gone.
"Ivan and Titus, oh how you let me down, to think I had found the cure for the Titan disease" he said shaking his head.
Ivan swallowed hard, that's the disease that made his psychic brother insane, "leave them alone" I cried.
"I will, after all it's you my master wants me to kill, you see if a child of an observer kills you you will die forever" he said with a grin.
"I am eternal!" I yelled with anger, my eyes glowed red but a golden ring surrounded my pupil, the earth under me roared.
The moon began to turn red, "I am a god!" I screamed, I felt chaos begin to course through my veins.
Ivan and Titus's minds linked with mine, I felt power rotating through us, what was the source of this power.
"If we fight, we're more than likely to destroy this continent" he laughed, his feet left the ground as he levitated.
Ivan's power and Tituses virus burned through my body, I felt my sanity slipping away.
Tim's dad took advantage of this, I felt as though he entered my body and took my soul and crushed it.
"Shit" I muttered as the power overwhelmed my mind, it was too much all at once, I blacked out.
(Simons POV)
My sister held Abels picture in her hand, she shut her eyes, I was all against this but Calvin pressured us.
With his blood in her veins her psychic nature flared, a pink ring circled her pupils, she began to convulse and mutter words in many languages.
She sputtered coordinates, in a flash Calvin dragged me and Tim there, I felt like I needed to puke, he was so fast.
Tim's father stood there above Abels body, and two boys stood behind Abel, Tim shook his head.
"Abel?" He said softly as he walked towards his father, Calvin stood in shock.
"Dad what did you do? What the hell is going on?" Tim's voice broke, tears stung my eyes at his pain.
"Dad no" he said again, his dad looked at him and rolled his eyes, he knelt down next to Abel.
"Babe?" Tim laughed as he shook Abel, he was hysterical, he tried to open his eyes forcefully.
"Babe wake up we have to go home okay?" He said to Abel, The red haired boy stood there with tears in his eyes as he held his brother.
"He's gone" the boy said, Tim looked up at him with anger, he shook his head and began shaking him.
"No he's alive, I love him, do you hear me babe I love you" he said pushing Abels hair out of his face.
"He was a vampire you know, a monster" Tim's dad said coldly as he walked towards them.
"Get away!" Tim yelled, his face was drenched with tears, Calvin collapsed on the floor and began hyperventilating.
"Simon listen, you are my brother, I'm sorry I left you, but I need to leave again okay? I can't live in a world without him" he said in between gasps.
His body glowed pink and he rose off the floor, the pink in his eyes glowed brightly until it exploded and a horizontal wave of pink lit up the sky.
His eyes turned back to an ordinary green with no pink dots, his body turned pale.
I covered my mouth with my hand, what did he just do? What the hell is going on? This has to be a trick right?
I'm going to wake up and everything's going to be normal, I'm going to wake up in the bed next to Abel and look at that stupid picture of us.
Everyone was dying, why was everyone dying, this is impossible, I couldn't move my body, a yell escaped my throat as I fell onto my brothers corpse and wept.
(Tim's POV)
The sky turned blacker than coal and the moon turned red as the sun forcefully eclipsed.
I could see all the planets aligning, but it didn't matter, the love of my life lay there dead.
He looked so peaceful, how could he look so peaceful, my dad kept talking to me but I drowned it out.
All I could hear was my own heartbeat as sweat rushed to my head, I put my hands in my pocket and felt for it.
A knife handle brushed my skin, an aurora lit up the sky as it levitated towards the moon, which became brighter.
I got to my feet bravely and turned to face my monster of a father, he looked pleased.
I pulled out my knife and stabbed him, right in his neck, he looked at me disappointed.
"Really Timothy? This could have gone so much better" he sighed as he pulled out the knife.
My heart was racing so fast I didn't even feel the pain, it just felt like a chunk of my chest was removed.
I looked down and saw my dads hand through my chest, I looked into his eyes as fear took over his face.
I looked behind me and saw Abel get to his feet, he radiated so much light, he was brighter than a star, and he walked towards us.
He put his hand against my dads head, "you have been found guilty of the highest treason" Abels warm voice vibrated in the air.
flowers began to bloom throughout the whole field, little golden and blue flowers.
My dads skin began to turn golden as he began to chip away, he turned into a golden statue.
He dropped me on the floor, blood left my body as I looked up at Abel, he looked so graceful.
"You will be forever preserved in beauty as a reminder of what you did" he said as my dad yelled in pain and froze.
Abel looked down at me and smiled at my wound, he bit his lip, "you said it" he said as his eyes turned blue, what was he? A god?
"I'm dying Abel" I said softly, he nodded, and brushed his lips against my blood covered lips.
"You are but everything will be fine" he said softly, his voice soothed me, it was like a pain killer.
"You killed me, you made my life a living hell, but you showed me what true love was, it broke my curse, and you gave me the best memories of my existence" he said softly as he looked at Calvin.
"This lifetime with you was better than a hundred with him" he said softly, a feeling of satisfaction and pride overcame me.
"Yes" I coughed with a laugh of victory, he smiled and ran his fingers through my hair.
"He realized that, he loved me so much he sacrificed his entire being to bring me a wish" he continued, I didn't understand what he was saying but I didn't care.
He pointed to the sky "you see that? That's our future, you'll be with me again one day, our love has been observed, we are innocent" he said kissing my forehead.
He began to blur out of my vision as I drew my final breath, I was more than happy to die in the arms of my true love.
(Abels POV)
I was inside my head, I was so powerful but I felt so weak for what I was going to do would break my heart.
My vampire and humanity stood in front of me, tears stung my eyes, I've never in my eternal life had feelings of my own, only my hosts.
"I love you guys so much" I said softly, my vampire looked angry as hell as he tried to brush off feelings, I laughed at his stubbornness.
"You're selfless, you're not a monster, you are loving and strong, you have done things no one could withstand, your heart is bigger than anyone else's" I said to him, he looked down.
"And you" I said to my humanity, he began to cry and shook his head, he put his hands against his ears.
"You gave me your life, your body, you withstood so much pain your whole life and still wore a smile, you are brave, and beautiful, you have touched my cold heart" I said softly.
His lip quivered as he fell to his knees, "why are you saying all this!?" My humanity screamed to me, I bit my lip.
"I have to go now, my time is up, my curse is broken, we will die, I just wanted to thank you all and give you a gift" I said softly.
My vampire cried tears of blood, "we don't need anything!" He yelled, I smiled.
"I love you both" I said honestly, and I returned to the real world, the moon was rainbow.
******
I laid on my back and began to levitate through the air, I would rip space and time apart with my death.
Calvin's final gift to me have me exactly what I wanted, a way to provide for my loved ones.
I felt something in my stomach, I touched it and smiled, "thank you Calvin" I said to myself.
A beam of light shot through my body and a rewound everything, and I know you have questions, what happened next? Did I live? Was the evil gone?
Well the answer was nothing happened next, I died, me a god, finally put to rest, and the answer of was the evil gone, well no, it was still out there but evil is really a perception of the mind, maybe in another universe that evil that ripped my life apart was good.
Goodbye universe, I said as my souls left the world, back into the dark cloud I came from, chaos.
(Abels POV)
My eyes fluttered open, I coughed as I felt something in my nose, I struggled to lift my arm up.
I pulled it out, I was in the hospital, I heard the heart monitor beeping, I dropped my arm exhausted.
"you're awake?" My mom cried in shock, she began to cry tears of happiness.
"Where's Tim?" I tried to speak but nothing came out, she looked confused.
"Don't try and talk honey" she said as she called for a doctor, my hearing was terrible, or maybe I had been a vampire for too long.
"You've been in a coma for almost a year honey" she said kissing my hand, my eyebrows raised confused.
"You got jumped, someone crushed your throat and the pressure in your spine built up and put you there" she continued.
Was it all a dream? I looked at the light in the doctors flashlight, it blinded me, "he is fine, this is amazing, a 13% chance of waking up, outstanding Abel" he said quickly.
My mom shrieked with happiness, I drank from the straw and felt the lubrication in my throat.
"Mom I missed you" I said weakly, my voice croaked, I didn't even sound like myself.
After two days of rehabs I was walking again on crutches, I saw Simon walking in the building.
"Simon!" My voice croaked with excitement, his face turned pale, he turned and ran away.
"Was it really a dream?" I asked myself, in that dream world I had gotten used to talking to myself.
The only thing was no one talked back, my mind was completely clear for once, I used to wish for this all the time but now I missed it.
I had lost two major parts of myself, my best friend, the love of my life, and a soul mate.
I looked at myself in the mirror, I had acne, my eyes were a deep blue, there was no gold at all.
It would take a while to get adjusted to this, but I felt tears welling up in my eyes, why was I so sad of losing a dream.
I walked to the roof, I don't know how I was supposed to live life without them, this emptiness was going to kill me.
I was in my hospital gown, I dropped my crutches and staggered towards he edge.
I heard the door swing open, "Abel wait" Tim's voice shot through the air, tears welled up in my eyes.
I longed to hear him again, I turned o look at him, he looked brave, I smiled at him sadly.
"Look I'm so sorry about what I did, I took your life away from you, but I'll give you mine to make up for it" he said quickly.
"You don't understand Timmy, you already gave me life" I said as I walked towards the edge.
"No you don't understand!" He said back quickly, but it was too late, my body fell through the air.
I landed in strong arms, Tim held me bridal style, but how were we on the ground already.
I opened my eyes to look into his, he looked down at me, we glided through the air.
He had huge white wings with golden tips, we moved through the air so quickly until we stopped at the field where I died.
The flowers swayed in the wind, he put me down and held me up by my hands, "like I said, you don't understand" he said softly as his lips pressed against mine.
My arms wrapped around his neck, his huge arms grabbed my waist and lifted me up.
"You are the love of my life Abel" he said softly, his eyes were a soft golden hazel.
And his arms were covered in tribal tattoos, his wings retracted into his backs and the tattoos turned black.
"What happened?" I asked confused, he knew exactly what I was talking about.
"When the observer died he set all of his wrongs right, he made this world normal, I'm the only variable" he said softly.
I felt my observers warmth in Tim's chest, "he saved me and made me an angel" he continued.
"Why did he erase everyone's memory?" I asked softly, he looked sadly at me.
"Because he made sure there were no vampires, Eric died thousands of years ago, you and Simon never became close" everything is how it should be.
"Now what?" I asked Timothy, his sun kissed skin reflected the light and he flashed his white teeth.
"Now we have that long and happy life together" he said, it was amazing how he still looked at me like I was the most beautiful thing in the work even when I had gone back to a boy hit by the puberty bus.
He flew me home, I swear he watched me the whole night, he just starred at my face until he fell asleep.
I got out of my bed and walked to my closet, I opened it, there was a tiny chest in there.
I opened it, a small envelope was in there, it looked old and worn out like it had endured two wars.
I pulled out a single picture, It was me and Simon, I was making an ugly face and Simon was smiling at me.
My heart fluttered as I ran down stairs, I got in my moms car and drove ridiculously fast.
I pulled up at the beach, I remember the bonfire where I realized how much I loved Simon.
He sat on the beach looking at the stars, "Simon" I said softly, he flinched and jumped up.
"Look I'm so sorry!" He said putting his hands up and backing up defensively, I smiled and put my arm on his shoulder.
"Let's just talk" I said softly, my voice would never be the same, it was croaky and broken.
He sat down next to me and crossed his arms, "why are you here?" I asked as I gazed at the stars.
"I don't know, I always come here whenever I feel lonely or need to think, it's like I get clarity here, I don't feel so alone, you know what I mean?" He said deeply.
"No believe me I get it" I said softly, I looked into his green eyes, he looked so much like Calvin.
I put my arm around him and kissed his cheek, he didn't even stop me, instead I felt a tear fall on my lips.
His arms wrapped around me and he kissed my lips, "I don't know why I did that" he said searching my eyes.
"It's fine" I said with a smile, he began sobbing into my shirt, I ran my hand through his hair.
"I just feel so alone, I feel lost, my heart hurts so much" he sobbed, I lifted up his face.
I put my hand in my pocket and pulled out the picture, I gave it to him, he took at it and breathed heavily.
A soft flash of pink, surely the last of Calvin's grace lit up his eyes for a moment.
He looked up at me, "Abe?" He said softly, I nodded and his arms wrapped around me.
Ivan's voice ran through my head, "memories can't be destroyed, they can always come back", and my best friends had come back.
And my life was whole again, I could live the rest of my life happily, I could grow old, and when I die I hope I go to the same place as him, my observer.
{the end of Abels story}
(Titus POV)
I never knew what was wrong with me, my red eyes made me feel like more of a freak than I was.
"You're fine" Ivan whispered softly against my cheek, I looked into his grey eyes.
"I'm a monster, I hear all these voices in my head" I said nervously, we were so wrong but it felt so right.
I was trapped in the body of a 12 year old boy, I had once shared a teenage body with a god.
Now I had one of my own, and a name of my own, my name was Titus Crosswell, the only vampire alive.
Ivan held my face, "you helped me believe I was normal, and I was more screwed up than you" he said softly.
"But I have your brothers face, I'm in his body this is so messed up" I said as my dang pierced my lip.
"Maybe we're not meant to be normal, but I'm more than happy being abnormal with you" he said as he kissed me.
And as unordinary as this relationship was, I felt like for once in my short life I actually belonged.
