Cory sipped his mocha latte as he sat at a cute little bistro on the corner of a small village in France, as he leaned back and scrolled through an E-book on his phone the figure of someone stopping in his peripheral vision caught his attention. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjqkBvMUZK
“Hey”739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84fJclOPKR
He glanced up meeting eyes with a taller man in a suit, hands his in his pockets. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFLNk6nd6H
“Remember me? Peru, 1821…”739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFD1SeahUq
Cory shivered and stood, “oh my god, Riv”
739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeI3XzZv7w5
London, England. September 1815
Cory ran fast, splashing puddles of water up against his trousers as his hair threatened to fall from his hair ribbon. “HEY! GET BACK HERE!” He clipped a corner and slid almost falling into a pile of trash, he huffed looking frantically for a place to hide before shaking his head and climbing past the garbage and muck. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRvFbwyPTo
As he climbed a small ladder to the top of one of the buildings he watched the men run past the alley, he sighed a breath of relief. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSv2qw1c04U
“Cory, are you stealing again?” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74TapLiiDb
he glanced up to his mother standing there on the roof a basket of clothes in hand, Cory frowned and pulled himself up to join her. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyov4ZKDLq
“Sorry mama…” he apologized, she sighed and ruffled his dark hair. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcYkvGQD0B
“I’ve some news” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmkBjjBlQO
He sat down and pulled off his boots, dumping water onto the stone roof below. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqjcy0dCGd
“We’re moving” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1C1Q1KZan
He froze and looked up at his mother who clipped up a small quilt. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHG1SLjtRKK
“Your father found a job in Peru…it’ll help us” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7Eu7MZSQR
She looked to Cory who stared, baffled. “Why…”739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAfKTwrAne
She smiled gently, the slight sight of her canines just barely there.739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8x9Lci56dg
It was shocking how she still looked the same after so many years, and especially after giving birth to Cory. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VCPTwhN1f
Cory was basically a freak accident, or a miracle as his mother thought it. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUYEJkbu74
She was never able to give birth to babies…and one day she made a deal with a weird lady on the street. She promised fertility and prosperity. Only half of it was true, and there was of course a catch. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaVAHOAGFz
Upon her having the ability to give birth, that child would have to live through many, many decades alone and immortal. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmQRDwEfl0
A Daylighter. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoNDnz8LF2
Cory closed his eyes to take a deep breath, His mother pulled him into a hug. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTptWyRUgXj
“I love you, Cory”
“Well…it’s not much- but it’ll do” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2utpigv79
cory frowned at the small single room, a cot sat in the corner, a small kitchen to the left and a shit hole at the opposite of the building. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4swIPiYYVd
“Where’s dad?” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZ12MOBcfp
“He went to go to his interview” his mother said with a small smile as she pulled blankets out of her baggage and fluffed it out on the ground. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8gKrCjjm4
She waved for him to join her and he shook his head “this…mom. We’re not going to survive here!” Cory said raising his voice, Her eyes widened. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUGRCFwJaq
“Do not yell at me young man. We moved so we could get better.” She snapped. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡko2OtEVRmB
“This…this is worse.” He sobbed and slammed open the rickety wooden door as he ran out the house. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWddZ1FDIv
“CORY” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzJIzqvOAX
and so he ran. He did what he was best at. Running away, hiding.
Cory shifted in the grass under the cold moon when a twig nearby snapped, his head shot up and he looked around. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ309bjiFvla
He wasn’t scared, he lost the ability to feel terror when he lived in London, always on the run, hiding from bad men. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQSgjsXenv
A small boy emerged from a bush a basket of fruit in hand, his eyes scanned the darkness before meeting Cory’s, something flickered. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3vEkhmIty
“Are you alright?” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEN99ULlHj
Cory frowned and nodded, the boy shared a similar frown…but one made of pity.739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjOsmYu0Md
“Here” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FHrbBCNcI
Cory eyed the pear in the boys hand as he handed it to him, Cory’s lips twitched as he held back a smile. Eventually he gave in. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgL6DfwJjW
“Thank you” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoa1GBGP0Td
the boy nodded and gestured to the spot next to him, Cory nodded and the boy sat down. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyNONsRlD9
“I’m Riven…”739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhcH5hCWVf
“Cory” He replied in between bites of the ripe pear. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXUvey1z0F
It was sweet and juicy…almost like something he’d never had before, which was true.739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwKkOR0bbO
“How old are you?” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWzcad7qtR
“13..”739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzWYRZbH3S
Riven blinked and pulled his knees to his chest, “what about you?” Cory inquired. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7TAgjsiMU
“10”
Moquegua, Peru. March, 1821.
Cory shoved Riven gently as they walked through the woods picking fruit from trees. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQhy9r3lbz
“I think I’m gonna leave Peru” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiLs9b6nIY
Riven gave him a look. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrxHyqJvSn
“What? How?” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXO9bzNzjlb
Cory kicked a rock gently and took a bite of a pear. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNT4gL4iGf
“There’s a train leaving tonight, I’m gonna get on through the baggage area” he said, Riven frowned.739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlldeCIJAs
“You’re going to smuggle yourself out of Peru? Have fun with that.” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1Xb1Aojlt
Cory stopped in his tracks and grabbed Riven’s arm. The basket fell. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGY5TVh8Ayv
“Riv…I want you to go with me” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSy2vQurMTP
Riven stared in shock before pulling from Cory’s grasp and picking up the fruits. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDNWwsagnZ
“Cory, you know I can’t do that. My mother is on her deathbed, out of all people I’d expect you to know what that’s like. Not being able to leave your mother while a plague is eating her alive” he said his voice going soft. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBKa9n4uGC
Cory sighed.739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5owWCEsjI
“Then we can leave after it happens.”739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsXkMSkMnO
Riven looked up at him in disgust “you act like she’ll die any day now? Is that what you want? The one woman who actually treated you right? You want her to die?” Riven snapped, Cory backed away as Riven stalked forwards. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByB63Pp6dg
It was silent for a few moments and Cory stared at the ground, guilty. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cMx2iCdkw
“You know what…leave. Go wherever the hell it is you want to go. But I’m not going. And when you leave I’m forgetting your entire existence even mattered.” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPNvaFVHqY
Cory stared at him being taking a sharp breath and turning, Riven eyed him as Cory walked away disappearing amongst the bushes and trees. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JGQYJ5TtT
739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPrEYhtxh8
Cory dodged a train worker and threw his satchel into the small corridor full of baggage, as he looked for a bag to fit in his head snapped up to a small ‘pssst’.739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjG2UjippiH
He looked around before spotting Riven “Cory” His eyes flickered with multiple emotions at once, fear, anger, anxiety.739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡou7cIxXY4p
“Don’t do this, please. Mama needs you and me by her side…” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0JWEkEaNP
Cory frowned and shoved his foot into an empty bag that was almost his size, he’d have to curl into a ball to fit. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lQwaHwuHS
“No, she needs peace and quiet.” He snapped, the train whistled and Riven’s eyes widened. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1JpgQ3Wps
“No, Cory please!” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ56XHcwNYe
“Hey! THEIF” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjnE1EoxeZ
“Either join me, or run.” Cory spat, Riven hesitated but shook his head with a small scoff and ran. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpuGh21bko
Cory shoved himself into the bag as the police men chased him, he was getting out of here. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bUjmIXs6J
739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxatBrTL0b
Manhattan, New York. August, 1824
“Cory! Look!” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRUD2zMiZb
Cory glanced up from the bar where he was cleaning a glass that was once filled with whiskey, a girl his age ran towards him tips in hand. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡighCaC7VAk
“This is more then yesterday!” She cheered, he raised an eyebrow. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYY1yp4MAM
“No way!” He chuckled, she grinned and kissed him gently over the counter. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNajjztq2T
“C’mon let’s close up and go upstairs, I have a surprise for you” she said, he smiled and nodded as he set the clean glass aside. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pWLSSBKCd
She flipped the sign on the door and locked it, Cory smiled as she dragged him up the stairs towards their apartment. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35MMZWYBmT
“What could you possibly have to show me?” He asked, she glanced back at him with a huge smile. Her corset made her waist slim and the pale yellow skirt pooled around her legs gentle and flowy.739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXfErTHImX
When they entered the room, she spun “happy birthday!” She cheered, three people looked towards him with wide grins. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcOry0IBOw
Cory broke into a smile. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDviVlzXusu
“I love you so much” he said picking her up in a hug and kissing her gently, she giggled and pushed away from him so he could greet his friends. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKCbMVUsAc
24 years… he’d been through so much through those years. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIYVv4Q13q
He cried and grieved, he stole, he lied, he moved, he made friends, he left friends, he fell in love…hard in love…739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDXz8hOEce
As His lover handed him a delicately package box he spotted the gold band on her finger, he smiled gently at it. “How did you…?” He trailed off and she smiled. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqM5eAT6KB
“We all pitched in, we hope you like it” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RaEbHpj7o
He tore the paper and Gasped, inside a small rectangular box sat a broach on a sliver chain. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszy733duM1
It was a small rose set into Amber with a silver lace patterned trim, his mother had something similar…739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡED7rbPWYoX
“Where did you get this?”739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyd12ykReIB
his lover smiled “someone came to town not to long ago looking to sell it for some money…you said your mother had something similar so we wanted to get you something that made you feel closer to her” She said gently clasping it around his neck. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlqpoubjSe
He stared at her, his eyes fluttering in a daze before he smiled gently. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJL3rlcf5p
“Thank you…guys, this is…this is amazing”
739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfM8GSZBj1
Aisha sniffled as her breath quivered and she gripped Cory’s hand tightly. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaoDgyQM5C
“I love you so much” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlpWWRoLqm
Cory held back tears, “I love you more…”

Tahiti. Summer, 1850
Cory sipped the liquid from the coconut gently before tossing it aside and joining the people who danced on the shore of the beach, the water glistening a bright blue against the burning sun. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUr5FM7URf
He chuckled and let them place necklaces of flowers around his neck and pull him dances as people played unknown instruments, this was the life he wanted. Something full of joy, and adventure. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHdU9CKLxl
He was starting to think that the curse that had been placed on him was a miracle, he could do anything he wanted.739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIOyTaRRx9
Go anywhere he wanted, see what happens in the future. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdkapio5Wd

California, America. October, 1980. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4q49cQ0i84
739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HzWrkOozo
Cory shoved into his friend the chains on his leather jacket dangling against the zipper as his small group made their way under a graffitied bridge. As far as they knew he was still 20, when he was really much older but he enjoyed the game…the manipulation, the secrets. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjhetff4gK
“So, Cory. What do you plan on doing with your music?” A short haired punk girl questioned lighting a cigarette, Cory smirked and leaned against the stone bridge. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurr4QFaWxl
“I don’t know, might put out some Ep’s might not…in a place like this anything could happen.” He said, Tristan, a tall blonde bassist punched him gently in the shoulder a joint dangling from his lips. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqqYZMIj6J
“Right, Cory the ever aspiring grandpa” he joked, Cory rolled his eyes. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7f9bVit0j7
“Who you calling Grandpa, last I checked I was paying you” he teased, Tristan laughed and ruffled Cory’s hair. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡad6LbzOvG4
“Good point, I don’t plan on losing that pay anytime soon” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1H5JIKhSSk
“yeah right, I’m shocked you haven’t gotten fired yet. You and your anger issues” Fifi a tall mixed girl with dreads said as she skipped a rock. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocKyr4s4SO
Tristan rolled his eyes. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDZjFCKTdz
“I’m getting better” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQmqAXnPah
“Say that to Greg, poor thing got his jaw busted cus’a’you” Dean groaned, Tristan sighed and Cory smirked. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNNe9Lmdll
“Now, now let’s not start any fights. We’re here to have fun, remember?” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUp9JOn237
They all looked at him and grinned.
“Hey there everyone, we’re the Polarized Witches…thank you for coming” Cory said into the mic, everyone cheered and he chuckled. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VzS8vxK6K
Guitar strings were strummed, followed by the bass and drums. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXenvz1bbFu
Cory sang low and quiet as the first few notes were slow and thoughtful. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRead67F2W5
When the beat dropped Cory spun away from the mic as he hit the chords of his electric guitar bringing cheers and screams from the audience.
Cory laughed as him and his band mates ran to the limo past millions of fans, people cheered and reached for them as they got in. Guards shut the doors and they drove off. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvx7dGAZlRg
“That was fucking amazing!” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAz6uCwGAt
Cory laughed “Hell yeah it was!”
Paris, France. December, 2010
Cory sat silently at a small cafe on the corner of a street in Paris, he sipped his mocha latte as he scrolled through his phone remembering all the good, bad and fun times he had. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcNQRN9mbh
He could never ask for a better life, he knew this was what everyone wanted…but he was starting to get tired of it. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiirTalnXl
He’d been around since 1802 for fucks sake…739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAXWNeiY0T
“hey” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xfFKFCuOb
he glanced up, meeting a tall man’s eyes. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZespTvmr5
“Remember me? Peru, 1821?” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmn04hiFPIt
Cory shivered and stood, “oh my god…Riv” 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlvtvbGQgC
Riv smiled “been a while, wanna talk?” Cory grinned. 739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaHZjmVnyJ
“Why not.”739Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ98HmEw92G
