Chapter 1: The last chance.
Prologue,
In the beginning,
Before there was Race, Religion, Limitations of the mind or even death...
My Grand mother was created for a man, the first of both their kinds, to rule and replenish the Earth and they did.
Well after the temptation and being chased of out paradise of course.
Anyway, years later, Kamaria, last daughter of Eve, was paired with an angel Soèl. They were among many others who found love in their differences and that's when it all begun.
For this, all half-breeds and fallen were forced to live in different realms away from humanity.
My parents knew my mother was different, that she was very special. That she just was a Taurè. Not an abomination. Absolutely NOT a ticking timebomb.
In that very year, my brother and I were born. But unlike her or my brother I was the different one.
Unlike our father's angelic nature and physical magnificence or Our mother's pure soul and endless Love, I had a charge like no other.
This wasn't supposed to be a new dawn for all supernaturals that were forced into another Realm in fear of being enslaved or used by the humans and forced to be inslaved to that curse on their kind- death.
We were meant to live forever but that didn't last long. Not after what our grandparents did.
As soon as my brother and I matured, we discovered that being half Angel and half Taurè wasn't all sunflowers and lilies.
We were stuck between personalities. It's either you are good and without flaw or you are bad and doomed.
At least that's how it was for him until he met his Mark. He changed and he was set free from his charge's oppression.
I on the other hand needed to find my Mark before darkness overcame my entire being and all supernaturals as well as humans, would this time perish. It was only a matter of time especially now that I kind of accidentally got cursed to never die after taking a life I wasn't supposed to.
I mean who kills people to stay sane?
Well I do but still.
It's the sickest thing ever. But that was the only way to stay in control.
At least that's what I have always told myself.
And as the rest of them merged, I was still trying to understand my charge.

1905, Sahara Desert

Realm: Earth
Status: Neutral grounds.
A night alone again, away from civilisation.
In this cold, dry and silent cave in the middle of a vast sea of sands.
I moved away from the flames I had conjured a few hours ago as my stomach growled causing me to cross my legs hoping to avoid having to lose too much body heat in this dark and lifeless cave.
My fourteenth run from a Marriage ceremony since the Pharoah in 1054 BC. My oh my was I over this! It took me a whole seventeen earth years to remember everything from my previous life this time around. Which is a complete generation in purgatory. And only after six months since I regained my memories did I uncover my new abilities.
No telekinesis this time around unfortunately but the lightening and air was definitely an upgrade.
I sat in silence and wondered why I came back into this Realm, 'Earth'. Where his presence is more concentrated. And truthfully because I've only been able to feed better here than in none human-zone realms.
And now I've wasted so much time that my humanity is about to fade.
A new life, body, place and expectations but same old soul.
A new life, body, place and expectations but same old soul.
I was tired if not exhausted out of my wits.
I had just shifted from the fourth realm (Purgatory- the realm of the halflings and hybrids -all supernatural creatures) right after I regained my memories trying to find him but instead I literally ran into a sheikh -thankfully this time around- who'd immediately begun planning for our marriage ceremony before the sun set instead of intending to have me hanged in the middle of the godforsaken village.

I had to jump out the window of a four storey Arabian Castle to meet a ground leveled in hard core concrete luckily my lehenga (traditional wedding attire) was enough cushion to keep my body parts intact. No wonder it was next to impossible being able to run in it.
But the jewelry was something I was willing to live with. The way the hold glowed on my wrist was bringing back memories I wish I could relive but after trying to run without making a sound was so impossible I had to melt it all off.
Having heat manipulation was a win but I could really use some time traveling once more...
Although the last one was short lived.
After a while, I traded... Okay fine I stripped someone in exchange, the thick and heavy lehenga for a black thob with red khayak I Found on one of the girls who was 'trying' to catch me. Take note of the keywords there.
Luckily it had wide slits to mid thigh which made it even easier to sprint right out of sight.
I have to admit it was fun and all but I'm too old for these acts.
It's a marvel how some people still haven't caught up with the concept of 'Consent' or at least patience. This being the 20th century and all.
Where am from, one only marrued after being given consent no matter the circumstances.
1905 was officially one of my worst years of being alive.
Lucky for him and his men, I was still worn out from the switch between Realms otherwise... it's only by grace that they have all survived. I needed to feed soon. My Charge was already unbearable when I was fully fed. I could feel her literally clawing at my insides.
And the food I needed was not so common at this time of the night in my location.
"May I?" a low and deep voice interrupted my thoughts as a stranger made himself comfortable right on the opposite end of the little fire I had going. Where the hell did he come from.

"Is this how strangers introduce themselves here? And I don't remember agreeing to being entertained with your presence. So leave." I stated as I looked up from my slouched position. Straightening my now purple stained thob from its crinkled state in order to hide my very naked and might-be exposed body parts.
I had passed through a grape vine before reaching the Bare seas of sands and got stains on my clothes.
I stared into the dark chocolate eyes that were just as mysterious as the stranger's choice of dressing -All black (leather pants, a loose fitting long sleeved shirt from the protruding sleeves on his palms and a long black trench coat with leather patches and some worn out hiking boots). He was a handsome fellow but I had more pressing matters to worry about than pressing onto someone I just met a few seconds into a conversation.
I could tell he was entirely not Mundane but he didn't have a charge either, which means he's either a halfbreed or a demon.

why not angel?
okay it's quite easy Angels are forbidden in the human realm. Only special cases require their presence and whenever that moment takes place we all supernaturals feel the change in the dimensions like an electric shock. In short it's quick but still uncomfortable and very noticeable.

"Since when do you ever get what you want?" He said ignoring my rant as his tone stayed calm and low as when he first spoke. He really had guts.
"Since a few reincarnations ago, now please leave!" I rose up towering over him but soon regretted the decision when he stood to a 6'4 win over my 5'9.
Fudgin' Crap that body!
"There's only one cave for miles if not days, let's share this one for the night. I won't bother you and you even won't even hear me breath, deal?" he finally broke the staring competition by raising his hands in a gesture of defeat. Well the breathing part was a give away cause he hardly had a heartbeat going.
"And that's supposed to magically change my mind?" I asked looking him up as I walked towards the entrance to ensure there was no possibility of an intruder to interrupt what I had planned to do to this unknown creature.
My charge was trying to take over but I tried to keep her in. She was starved and we needed to feed. What better option than the stranger whose lack of existence will not be noticed?
"Okay, it's a good deal, but mine is better. I need your blood! Otherwise you might as well leave." I Stated with a sick grin taking over my expressionless face.
"So it IS you, although I must say, I'm quite disappointed that the grand daughter of Eve is still quite so... primitive. Ever heard of a Tribrid? you might want to avoid taking their energy. Those are some messy freaks of nature by the way." He said making himself comfortable in his previous spot.
Elven! I knew he was a weird one.
"And who said I wanted clean energy?" I asked my claws coming out as my green eyes turned a shade darker than before. A few more breaths and My charge would take over.
"Are you kidding me right now? I just got here for Christ's sake and you're already about to drain the last bit of humanity I have left seriously?" He complained, his pitch a little higher than the other times he's spoken.
clearly this situation was not as amusing for him anymore.
"I don't really have an option, especially after you expressed your disappointment in me, I doubt you'd mind losing a little more of that attitude." My dark side responded as she was now raging against my better judgement to just drain her prey. Her voice cracking and raspy as though her throat was being dragged through a path of broken glass.

Animalistic much? Totally.
In that very moment I heard a distant blow of a horn. Darn those royal dogs!
It's already been two whole days can't they just let it go already?
"It seems you might just have a buffet waiting for you 2 miles east from here. Might wanna make a run for it before your meal escapes!" He commented looking quite interested in my dilemma as I looked between him and the entrance of the cave trying to decide on which direction to go.

"Freaking elves and their great senses!" I muttered under my breath but low enough for him to get everything.
"We know, now go catch us some roasted meat from their camels will you. And please don't forget to take the Ram as well." He pursed falling backwards to lay down as if in anticipation for the meal to come.
Likewise, I ran out as my eyes were completely black now that my dark charge took over entirely.
All I recall was causing one hell of a sand storm and the screams of terror as she sucked their energy leaving behind dry corpses who immediately turned to sand as if their existence was merely a figment of my imagination. Of course their wails will forever be forged in my memories. But that was not something new.
Satisfied and back to my better self I emptied their camels of all necessary equipment for my coming days of travel out of this dreadfully silent place.
Completely changed into a cleaner pair of a plain white thob with pair of pants in hand I head for the cave to damp all my collections on my side of the now dying flame.
The stranger instead was sound asleep. Looking so peaceful and even more attractive than most elven men.
Which by the way was beyond comprehension or maybe I was just extremely delirious from the energy I fed myself, it wouldn't be the first time.
Unlike what books and studies in the human realm protray elves to be. They are not peaceful creatures at all.
They feed off negative emotions and they definitely like a great roasted dwarf. Just kidding. But they're definitely hostile when need be.
Cause their power was a mixture of three different species.
It's exactly like having a child of a demon with an angel and a special hybrid to spicy it up.
Not to sound exaggerated, they hate vegetables for starters and they are powerful nature benders. Elements are not their specialty but they sure do know how to grow a viscious natural storm or disaster as humans call those phenomens.
They are great at disguises too which is no wonder I couldn't spot him earlier. Luckily they are not violent enough to cause me to fear them as much as I do halflings. Those are some vile sons of b****es.
The breeze brushed by my cheeks and I couldn't help but let out a shiver.
I flicked my wrist towards the almost dead flame and it comes back to life with a more vibrant glow. And the night goes by in a haze.
How I fell asleep, I'll never know.
★★★
Morning came and I woke to an empty cave.
All my supplies were gone, like literally not there.
'And to think I spared his god forsaken life'
I mused as I decided to head north, far away from where I came. hopefully to a better century than my last.

I mused as I decided to head north, far away from where I came. hopefully to a better century than my last.
I had been moving for two days tops. Slower this time because of the many villages I was passing through.
Night time came and I was ecstatic now that I could finally move in a storm without being spotted.
With that I begun my lazy run across sands and before long I was floating with the dust across the vast barren land just like I have Bren the passed few da
As a Taurè I can manipulate specific elements depending with when I reincarnated and sometimes even more powerful abilities that come naturally with the charge you carry.

As a Taurè I can manipulate specific elements depending with when I reincarnated and sometimes even more powerful abilities that come naturally with the charge you carry.
My most prized abilities are shifting between Realms and being able to restore Life in my better self. Although reincarnating into the same species is awesome but it was never something I was born with.
Before my mother was taken away into the First Realm (Heaven) by my father,
I was Merging (becoming one with my Charge or as I call her Cole; to prepare my body for the claiming by my Mark) so I ended up taking the life of a witch called Lahdan who's mate soon laid a curse upon me that I perish after am claimed by my Mark( soulmate). Hence my failure to die entirely and that's why I can't ever shift to heaven or Hell. Those two dimensions are only limited to souls who's journeys in a body have come to an end.
Angel or Demon mates are an exception but Charges like mine aren't mated to Angels or Demons but other Taurè called a Mark. Because my charge is more darker than they are initially supposed to be.

Coles are more light in comparison to my dark one. I unfortunately have both sides of the charge in control.
My Cole has the dark side as excessively more dominant than a normal charge has.
That's why I couldn't merge. Both I and my charge are supposed to be at a balance.
And once we've got a balance between the two, it's only when a Mark and my charge mate that the charge takes one form entirely.
Demons are dark and Angels are light.
A Tauré has a source of power which can either be from their Angel side or Fallen side. but sadly for the very first sets of my type of Tauré, I was born with both sides dominating and the longer it takes to mate with a Mark the harder it is to control the charge.
at least my brother had his but I still haven't found mine.
After moving for miles It didn't take more than two hours that I was met with the sound of raging waves then I decided to break the storm around me.
A mile more and I was faced with the most beautiful scenery since I arrived here.
The ocean was raging against the shore just as my heart against time. Against the distance between me and my Mark like he was waiting right over the edge. He was so close I could feel him but I still didn't know where to look exactly.
Just one glance at him and I'd be free. At least that's what I believed.

Unlike most supernaturals Taurès only knew their Mark through their Charge and since I wasn't merged with mine. It was hard communicating certain information to the other.
Soon I'd be Free to live, to die along side him, to love and not fret about whether or not I'll be accepted wholely.
Whether or not I'd be at peace because just seeing him will grant me the peace I've been yearning all my life, lives!
We could finally fulfill our fate and restore the balance in us.
I was the only remaining Tauré without a Mark.
My mateless lives proved to bring me more bad luck than good after all who were like me found their missing halves.
if it were easy for me as it was for them, I'd be happy, free and at peace.
But it wasn't and not as long as I was still cursed. And now my Charge was starting to threaten the lives I am yet to surround myself with, how was I to carry on.
'Hope!'
Yes, hope is what I need. it's all I can afford to have now.
I will come back again for you, my Mark.
And I ran one last time to my last reincarnation. My last chance at being alive with a soul that isn't over taken by darkness or driven by the curse from my shortcomings. One last chance to recall all my previous lives.

Crashing into the waves I thought, "My final legacy for the lost legacies."
