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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDWLizE8pl
“Hey”394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPSMMOEdR8
He glanced up meeting eyes with a taller man in a suit, hands his in his pockets. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNP9xKPS28
“Remember me? Peru, 1821…”394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAL2NJE8IA
Cory shivered and stood, “oh my god, Riv”
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4Z3cqUd9l
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwdUfd4jI6
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtpsCVQQI9
“Cory, are you stealing again?” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjf7abjOroc
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsjymQmDEZ
“Sorry mama…” he apologized, she sighed and ruffled his dark hair. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9x3i1CmCp
“I’ve some news” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8kMb5NGtO
He sat down and pulled off his boots, dumping water onto the stone roof below. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1rKPkC2Eg
“We’re moving” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoy1iqFLvqr
He froze and looked up at his mother who clipped up a small quilt. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxxPsMjzJB
“Your father found a job in Peru…it’ll help us” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaMnHsGynG
She looked to Cory who stared, baffled. “Why…”394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZgrU1N1Zk
She smiled gently, the slight sight of her canines just barely there.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UbfCYRbJE
It was shocking how she still looked the same after so many years, and especially after giving birth to Cory. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNo41o9EuO
Cory was basically a freak accident, or a miracle as his mother thought it. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5ftZZpg8K
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpzu56udTQ
Upon her having the ability to give birth, that child would have to live through many, many decades alone and immortal. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqTA0gk33c
A Daylighter. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRCcPjAGRA
Cory closed his eyes to take a deep breath, His mother pulled him into a hug. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbH81ajohIG
“I love you, Cory”
“Well…it’s not much- but it’ll do” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpq8somIHg
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1wXjQh3ON
“Where’s dad?” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuXGAvacWH
“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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqcz49mdKT
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPaG55pI3M
“Do not yell at me young man. We moved so we could get better.” She snapped. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXG2rjlsC1W
“This…this is worse.” He sobbed and slammed open the rickety wooden door as he ran out the house. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vO3lW5UAD
“CORY” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqqjJUW2QG
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJdO8eGVi1
He wasn’t scared, he lost the ability to feel terror when he lived in London, always on the run, hiding from bad men. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZIGiMpTVo
A small boy emerged from a bush a basket of fruit in hand, his eyes scanned the darkness before meeting Cory’s, something flickered. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYz8XCjmZQ
“Are you alright?” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKB0dDQvEB
Cory frowned and nodded, the boy shared a similar frown…but one made of pity.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kdqh1Pfx8
“Here” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiE7KplkBr
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEQxyGxoha
“Thank you” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPny2v0F7U6
the boy nodded and gestured to the spot next to him, Cory nodded and the boy sat down. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOsvuZD3rh
“I’m Riven…”394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerSpYQFRM5
“Cory” He replied in between bites of the ripe pear. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kmGDLaJV1
It was sweet and juicy…almost like something he’d never had before, which was true.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZvqXq52XT
“How old are you?” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXIY5jsuEd
“13..”394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1IuwFIJJn
Riven blinked and pulled his knees to his chest, “what about you?” Cory inquired. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTd4uT5UUBV
“10”
Moquegua, Peru. March, 1821.
Cory shoved Riven gently as they walked through the woods picking fruit from trees. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxKH3jDpyb
“I think I’m gonna leave Peru” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGQi1rX6sG
Riven gave him a look. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlVu8rxHYM
“What? How?” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFBgLGelXO
Cory kicked a rock gently and took a bite of a pear. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4uTwuPwqJ
“There’s a train leaving tonight, I’m gonna get on through the baggage area” he said, Riven frowned.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFczSDmBbS
“You’re going to smuggle yourself out of Peru? Have fun with that.” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzPBpeTJFZ
Cory stopped in his tracks and grabbed Riven’s arm. The basket fell. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0Q4Q8thZt
“Riv…I want you to go with me” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLbR804h9k
Riven stared in shock before pulling from Cory’s grasp and picking up the fruits. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oIaaphqu1
“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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvnn3fSRgA
Cory sighed.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOp5TWGWduy
“Then we can leave after it happens.”394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuR42yDPvKw
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJexg79PGk
It was silent for a few moments and Cory stared at the ground, guilty. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYz7Jy8SVQv
“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.” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClIs3GnJzf
Cory stared at him being taking a sharp breath and turning, Riven eyed him as Cory walked away disappearing amongst the bushes and trees. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlngbPnXUa
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuw3ddV5Yz
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’.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyEqrrdT74
He looked around before spotting Riven “Cory” His eyes flickered with multiple emotions at once, fear, anger, anxiety.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwybv5g6Duv
“Don’t do this, please. Mama needs you and me by her side…” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBx2P41Fp7
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9oZzvNc8e
“No, she needs peace and quiet.” He snapped, the train whistled and Riven’s eyes widened. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFTqhMT76O
“No, Cory please!” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwAhvJ1TiE
“Hey! THEIF” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07jgbtYzP0
“Either join me, or run.” Cory spat, Riven hesitated but shook his head with a small scoff and ran. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7g0mueGdYT
Cory shoved himself into the bag as the police men chased him, he was getting out of here. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzS4eqbzsic
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95Cl6jpJ6r
Manhattan, New York. August, 1824
“Cory! Look!” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwa8lhJnBxa
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiARttm6ONK
“This is more then yesterday!” She cheered, he raised an eyebrow. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdWyCpAKgc
“No way!” He chuckled, she grinned and kissed him gently over the counter. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCOfNwNmRv
“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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjcdfYq640
She flipped the sign on the door and locked it, Cory smiled as she dragged him up the stairs towards their apartment. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5Y3ElDi1B
“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.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbZ2jFfV3E
When they entered the room, she spun “happy birthday!” She cheered, three people looked towards him with wide grins. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxLbWwjbdD
Cory broke into a smile. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltZnFqDVSg
“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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXfdxD5BXu
24 years… he’d been through so much through those years. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03mqI2aja7
He cried and grieved, he stole, he lied, he moved, he made friends, he left friends, he fell in love…hard in love…394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IWP4fwuZf
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJzVjrfhXz
“We all pitched in, we hope you like it” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nu4dEkBes
He tore the paper and Gasped, inside a small rectangular box sat a broach on a sliver chain. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nRFS9dqEV
It was a small rose set into Amber with a silver lace patterned trim, his mother had something similar…394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2sfOiJD4U
“Where did you get this?”394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd12FWKcQo2
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJ1f8kVbwW
He stared at her, his eyes fluttering in a daze before he smiled gently. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwdNLejWxp
“Thank you…guys, this is…this is amazing”
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDGqtuDvom
Aisha sniffled as her breath quivered and she gripped Cory’s hand tightly. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTj2OkV7bg7
“I love you so much” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqEouOIxPO
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4SrIYmnJD
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIatsS4f2nn
He was starting to think that the curse that had been placed on him was a miracle, he could do anything he wanted.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9tyoOsYUm
Go anywhere he wanted, see what happens in the future. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubm0Pt6pvu

California, America. October, 1980. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGtqZkjGzj
394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUCuiclrxj
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Va20GPUsl
“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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHLaFg5wqm
“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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoZMPHicVX
“Right, Cory the ever aspiring grandpa” he joked, Cory rolled his eyes. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpfvRnur7i
“Who you calling Grandpa, last I checked I was paying you” he teased, Tristan laughed and ruffled Cory’s hair. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSAPWbtWB0
“Good point, I don’t plan on losing that pay anytime soon” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTew4uNKcZ
“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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw15r0KTeJr
Tristan rolled his eyes. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEXjg23rmd
“I’m getting better” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gNkkxaqdE
“Say that to Greg, poor thing got his jaw busted cus’a’you” Dean groaned, Tristan sighed and Cory smirked. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSFgAus6zC
“Now, now let’s not start any fights. We’re here to have fun, remember?” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8DOIHADRf
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsVhhPQiwN
Guitar strings were strummed, followed by the bass and drums. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RKTQoe6Pf
Cory sang low and quiet as the first few notes were slow and thoughtful. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GJOdEffRu
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgV6Sth3ts
“That was fucking amazing!” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpLlo0GMPB
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. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtv748nCGT
He could never ask for a better life, he knew this was what everyone wanted…but he was starting to get tired of it. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5tSLpgJef
He’d been around since 1802 for fucks sake…394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMc4zSj2wq
“hey” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalJyPu59MN
he glanced up, meeting a tall man’s eyes. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLM7a0F0DJc
“Remember me? Peru, 1821?” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28y1mhzE34
Cory shivered and stood, “oh my god…Riv” 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGu3akbwEv
Riv smiled “been a while, wanna talk?” Cory grinned. 394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YCVk1cg7Y
“Why not.”394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDHk9X7MHp
now he knew…he wasn’t alone anymore, of all the people he met he never knew the one he missed the most would be just as ancient as him…
