Chapter 4: Secrets Revealed
"Your what?" he asked, staring at me with wide eyes, "my… wings" I repeated. There was always a reason my family disowned me, I wasn't fully human. I was born into a family of humans, but I was something different, I was a creeper as well, however, I didn't need to hunt people to survive. "What do you mean your wings?" he asked, dumbfounded, "what I mean is… I'm a… creeper as well" I said, looking away from his eyes. "So that's why I found your scent so intriguing all those years ago" he smirked, finally getting off of me, "yes, and it's also the reason why I look so young" I said, more angry than scared.
I was born in a small town near East 9 in the 1700s, to a wealthy family. I was as normal as any of the other kids in the area, but in appearance I was different. While all the other kids had brown, black, or blonde hair, I had white hair and I do mean white. I was much stronger than the other kids as well, I could knock out a bodybuilder with nothing but a carton of milk. My mother was horrified when I was born, she even called the local priest to 'cleanse' me, but after the blessing he said that there was nothing wrong with me.
I grew up like all the other children, but they were afraid of me, as were most of the town's people. As the years went by I noticed that while the people around me grew older I remained young. Seeking answers I went to the church, knowing that the priests would have answers.
Upon reaching the church I was met at the steps by the priest who 'cleansed' me as an infant. "I knew you would come here" he said, "Father I seek answers and I feel that you have them" I said, showing my respect. "Come child, I will give you the answers you seek" he said, inviting me into the church.
He leads me through the church to a secret door behind the crucifix and ushers me in. We walk down a dark corridor, lit only by torches, until we came to a large wooden door decorated with holy relics. He offered his hand, which I took, and brought me in. "Child, what you are about to see has never been shown to another living being, no one is to know of its existence, understand?" he said, walking to a large podium with something, resembling a book, on it. "Yes Father, I understand and my lips are sealed" I said, walking up to the podium.
He ripped the sheet off of the podium, revealing a large book with a cross on it. "My child, this is the Book of Ages, it holds information from before Christ himself was born" he told me, opening the book. "This book will tell you all you wish to know. Tell me what do wish to know?" he asked, "I wish to know why I do not age as the others do, why I have wings, and why I have white hair" I said, calmly. "As I suspected you would" he said, turning the books pages. "Here child, these pages will give you the answers you seek" he said, motioning me to look at the pages he turned to.
During the Blue Moon a young woman is born with powers beyond human nature. Every thousand years an immortal child is born to a family of mortals. The child will grow into adulthood, but then cease aging and live centuries beyond its years. The child will bare wings, white hair, and immortality. The child will also be able to see loved ones who have passed on to the afterlife.
This child will meet many people similar to it, just not exactly like it, it will bring peace to Earth with a group of special beings. If the child is female then she will bring peace upon Earth and if the child is male then he will bring the world to an end.
During a female's life on Earth a male will appear and try to make her his mate, if the male succeeds in siring a child then the female's powers will have no effect in protecting the Earth from Armageddon.
As I kept reading I thought about how I had wings, white hair, and how I didn't age like everyone else did. "Does this mean I am the child that will bring peace to the Earth?" I asked, closing the book, "yes child, it is true and you will be a fine guardian of Earth when you are ready" he said, placing a hand on my shoulder. "Though I must warn you, because you are female, a male shall arise and try to stake his claim over you" he warned, "Father, how will I know if he is coming for me?" I asked, a little frightened. "He needs to kill in order to survive, you will know when our people start to disappear" he said, "my dear child, when it's time for you to move on from this place, please be safe and do not let the male win" he said leading me out of the church. "Do not fret Father, I will protect this world and all who live in it and I will see to it that the male never catches me" I said, accepting my role as a guardian. "I am glad of that child and I must request that you do not reveal to anyone what you saw this day" he said, "yes Father, I will make you proud" I said, cheerfully, "very good, now go on home rest, you must be tired" he said, noticing my droopy eyes. "Yes Father" I said before returning home.
As I lay there on the bed, I think of how most of the prophecy had come true. I had met others with supernatural powers and we ended a civil war on another planet, but now I feared that another part of the prophecy was about to come true. He had restrained and raped me and he was most likely going to do it again if he didn't impregnate me the first time.
"Very interesting" Creeper said, with a smile. He placed his hand on my head and proceeded to caress my cheek. "Don't touch me!" I scream, still trying to get free of my bonds. "SILENCE!" he roared in my face, effectively stopping my tantrum. "Please, just let me go" I plead, even though it was useless. "No, I'm not letting you go, not until I get what I want from you" he said, devilishly before dressing and leaving the room, more than likely to hunt.
As soon as he left I examined my chains for any sign of weakness, I was not going to let him have what he wanted. I found that one of the nails, holding the shackles together, was loose. I saw my chance and began to loosen the nail even more.
A/N: I am open to ideas for this story and tell me if you really want to know who the other supernatural people are ;)
