Reincarnated

I trembled in fear as my eyes flowed with tears, and my mind burned with images of the princess being tortured.

''Why... why did this happen? What did you do to deserve this?'' is all I could say; not controlling my emotions.

'There was nothing you could have done, Yume; he wanted power, he wanted revenge...'

There was a pause in her voice as I turned to look at her.

''What revenge?'' confusion filled the air around me as I tried to read her emotions, but all I got was blank stares.

'The revenge for his lover... I couldn't heal her; she was already too gone for me to heal her...'

''Heal her? did his lover die, Kali?'' my mind raced to the thought of those monsters who killed the princess.

'i could not; she was bitten, and there is no cure to vampirism; the whole castle was on alert before I could stop the townspeople surrounded her...' she trailed off.

Before I could say anything, my surrounding started changing again; back to the palace-throne room.

This time I saw a young woman holding a man walking slowly to the front of the line.

'state your name and what healing you wish me to do,' the princess said, walking down to the couple.

'my name is Alavander, please, your highness, my wife she hurt, we got attacked last night; they rapped her, and she is bleeding from her arms and neck.' the man said, holding his lover close.

The princess held out her hand to welcome the woman; she hesitated for a moment before reaching for her.

'i will do my best.' the princess said as she closed her eyes and light glowed from her hands.

I watched her closely, watching the princess try to heal the woman before a dark cloud flowed out and encased her in it.

''what's happening'' I yelled at Kali, turning to look at her.

''why is it not working?''

'she is dying, Yume; a vampire bit her body. There was no saving her,' she said, pointing back to the princess.

The princess let go of the woman before falling back, gasping for air.

'SHE'S the devil!' a man yelled from the crowd; panic swarmed the group soon, everyone was screaming and running at the woman. People were grabbing big knives as they started swinging at her.

'ahhh... please no, I'm not... I'm not the devil; please, you have to believe me' the woman cried out, but they didn't listen. Instead, the crowd was angry with rage, willing to kill the woman to save themselves.

The princess just stood there afraid of the woman; all she did was back away from the couple. Screams echoed in the room as the woman was stabbed so many times by the townspeople.

Finally, the screams stopped when the woman was pierced with a wooden spear, ripping her heart out of her chest.

The gruesome sight caused the princess to pass out, leaving the guards to rush to her side, ushering everyone out of the palace.

'mark my words, princess Kali you will never be free,' the woman lover said before running out of the palace.

''why? Why did this happen'' I was so shocked; my throat was so dry I couldn't breathe.

'there was nothing that could have changed the outcome Yume, it was always meant to happen,' she said, walking closer to me.

'you are the next in line; I have always connected to you, Yume, my young sweet Yume,' she said, holding my cheeks in her hand.

'My life is a part of you. You have been destined for great things, my reincarnation. my life, my memories, my pain, and my love is a part of you.'

My eyes got bigger, and my mouth dropped, causing me to tremble at her words.

''What... what do you mean reincarnated?'' I finally got the courage to ask. She smiled before answering.

'can you not see Yume? Your life was never truly free; so much heartache from your father, the people around you, and your mother's death.' my heart started beating faster when she brought up my mother.

''How does my mother have anything to do with this!'' I said, trying to understand even though I was angry for bringing her up.

'your mother dying was part of your destiny; you are not the cause of your mother's death, but in fact, vampires in rage wiped your town apart, burning everything to the ground.' she said, backing away giving me space.

'you have been a part of it all, Yume; my memories are now yours,' she continued before the room around me disappeared; now that surrounded me was the darkness from once before.

''I don't understand Kali; what am I suppose to do?''

'open your heart Yume, trust in yourself and fight,' she said before finally disappearing. I just stood there holding my breath as I watched her eventually fade away.

left all alone with my thoughts; all I could do was cry. *why? Why me? Why did I have to be born? it's not fair I didn't do anything special*

Lost in my thoughts, my mind raced with all that had happened in my life it's all I could think about when a bright light shot through my chest.

It wasn't painful, more like a warm, calming feeling, like I was back at home with my friend's Fin and Harmonia. Tears ran down my face like a waterfall as I missed my friends back home and my job.

* I want to go home; I want to stay alive. Why can't I wake up?* I try so hard to wake up, closing my eyes, hoping and praying till I heard a voice again; so warm and so full of care.

-Immortal prince-

'please, Kali... I need you back,' he cried, squeezing her hand.

'Sire, there is still no update on ms. Kali's condition' he suddenly stopped when he saw her vitals change before looking to see young Kali waking up.

'Sire, look,' he said, pointing to the bed where young Kali lays.

-Yume-

so cold I'm freezing, barely opening my eyes from the bright light hanging from the ceiling.

'Kali, can you hear me? Are you in pain' a man said.
