Life's Destiny
By the law of nature we are suppose to live life to a certain extent and then die, although before we die we are suppose to leave a legacy. A legacy that will continue your name later on in life. For an immortal there is no legacy because you are your own legacy. You watch for years your family growing old, their children growing old and the cycle continues over and over again. Life's too short for them and that's what makes human life so fragile, you may not have an eternal body but you do have an eternal soul, that's pure.
As an immortal you live a life that's never ending, every day passes and it's no better than the next. Until you find love, it makes days go longer and make eternity feel like eternity. Immortality doesn't mean not being able to be killed, eventually nature will try to even things out by making sure you're out of the picture. Paying for debts in life, paying for those you've killed in your blood frenzy hunger. I know that even if we are nature's mistake we can have peace in the afterlife, but what peace will there be if you know you left the love of your life behind.
When you left what you knew as family behind, I do truly believe in hell now. I could take all his physical torment but every single time he brought my parents into the game, I could not take it. Being on fire, having my skin ripped off and being eaten by demons, felt like a tickle. I broke various times screaming and crying but after a while I started to go numb. I was afraid of my sanity once I got out of here, I wasn't suppose to be here and he said so himself. then again he said I wasn't suppose to be here permanently never for a while. You killed me, You killed me.
Everything kept repeating over and over. No new form of torture, I craved new torture. Being ripped in half, burned alive and every single bit of torture didn't hurt. It just added to the psychological damage, begging to stop all of this made them just torture me more. Their form of change would be torturing what seemed like my parents, ripping their bare burned skin off.
I don't know how long I've been here anymore, I was scared of it having been over a year now but it shouldn't be right? Sometimes I couldn't react to any of this, I sat waiting for the next and next torture. I was put through most of everything any damned soul could have suffered. Tortures I wish on no man or women, it was all meant to cause damage.

"Caroline you haven't heard from Elizabeth have you?" It's been two months and days, no word from his niece, no one not even the Salvatore's have heard anything. Could she have found the Hybrid? it did cross his mind from time to time but then again if she would have, he would have found out by now. He had the ring after all.
"I haven't, she was supposed to call Bonnie and never did."Caroline sighed,"I heard of an incident in New York but nothing else from that."
"What Incident?"Alaric was worried beyond extreme now.
"She killed at least 30 people in one go…"Caroline hesitated knowing how it would affect Alaric.
"Why? It doesn't matter now I need you to come here for a few days, I'm going to look for her…" He looked at his two daughters, danger could no longer chase them. He couldn't also fail his late sister, he once made a promise to care for Beth as his own daughter and now he would put that promise into action.
"Alright.."
He turned his phone off and walked to his daughters finishing their dinner,"Girls daddy's gonna go do something important tomorrow early morning. Mommy is gonna come and spend a few days with you okay?"
"Mommy is coming?"Lizzie cheerfully squealed, Alaric just smiled at her. At such a young age he didn't want them to know of the evil that lurked around. He would do anything for them, go to levels he has never gone before. They reminded him so much of Joe, that it hurt him.
He has watched that little girl grow since she took her first steps , the first time he took her to one of his adventures. No matter how much they weren't biologically related she had his sister's wild spirit she once had before settling down. Watching that girl being deprived from everything she once had, made him want to protect her more, but it seemed she was born to be in this life no matter how much she fought it. She was a fighter, a leader and intelligent beyond anyone he has seen.
She was cunning too at times, that made her dangerous. It wasn't her fault though it was destiny's fault. If only had she never met Damon. Had he never moved to Mystic Falls everything would be normal by now. His sister would possibly be alive, he would have met Joe in other circumstances maybe or someone else outside of this world. Beth's only weakness was her love for her family and humanity. She would take it to levels no man would ever take it in order to protect anyone she loves.
He only wished she could start new and away from everything. If he only had the cure to save her from her immortality. He would see her getting married to a man worthy of her, she would have children and grow old with her partner. It was just not an option anymore. She was damned to all this.
{~Beth's Pov~}
I couldn't save Damon or Stefan, I could do nothing anymore. Even if I would get out who know's in what state I would be in anymore. I wouldn't be able to find Klaus, I failed the Mikaelsons'. I wish i could have done more, but I killed only because no one did what I wanted . I deserved this, I killed children, babies, I killed families. The memories of what I did would be my impending torture, I killed my mom and dad… I was to blame for everything, I damaged Damon. If I would have been here, no Siren would have gotten to him.
I started to feel soft velvet lining touching my hands, my heart beat increasing and falling every beat. I got out, he let me out of hell. What felt like minutes was seconds for my body to start animating once again. I heard a click and light hit my eyes like razors. "You're awake."
I sat up and got off the coffin,"Did you get what you wanted?" He gave me a cup of blood.
"No, I must leave now."I placed the cup down, I felt weak and odd but I had to leave.
"Elizabeth, you're in no state of leaving… I want to check for damage done."He placed the cup back into my hands,"It's been two months."
"Two months never less, I don't care."I placed the cup down once again and fled out of the house. The sunlight made it more difficult to concentrate. I kept walking and walking without an exact point. I felt lost and flashes of memories kept popping up. In-between the mix memories of torture came, flashes of Damon and Klaus.
when I saw I was at the cemetery once again, I walked till I got to an area that would make sure I wasn't visible. I laid on the grass to rest, I felt tired, weak and my skin stung. All the torture kept playing in my head over and over. "I'm sorry…I failed you mom… I failed everyone. I failed Stefan, torture was not enough to make me pay. I can't even go to your tomb to ask for forgiveness anymore. In hell you blamed me over and over. You were right I'm at fault, no matter what torture I have endured the last few months it won't make up for it."I started to cry grasping the grass,"I killed so many only to help him… I feel so lost, so confused and you was to know what makes it worse. Cade made sure I could remember everything they did to me. I can still feel my skin being ripped off. It all hurts, everything my heart hurts… I feel broken…"
After a while I stopped crying, but I still felt numb, abused in every way possible. I shook at the memory of what happened to me. I couldn't run to tell anyone, Maybe it didn't happen to me physically but I endured hell. The torture kept replaying in my head, I was truly broken. Or at least I felt mentally broken. I wanted to die but knowing if I did die i would go back again. I was gonna go back again.
"Whatever I suffered in hell I will suffer once again in order to save the Salvatore's,"I struggled breathing,"I only wish I could have told Klaus one more time how much I loved him… I failed to stay protect his child. Now it will only be Hayley and Hope alone… But made sure they would have protection somehow. I know I will die and suffer in honor of my friends' happiness. I don't know how long I truly have, I only wish for Klaus to never find out the reason of my death…"
I started to feel my body burning, every single emotion started to play with me. I laid there for hours humming to myself. I kept reminding myself that was only the start of it all, the real torture would begin soon. Crying only helped making it worse but I couldn't stop. At times I stopped but only to feel numb and hurt once again. I got up by the time night fell and walked to Mystic falls.
I walked at least 3 days to Mystic Falls before compelling a driver to drop me off an hour away from Mystic Falls, half way walking through the road I saw a car flashing its' lights. It stopped and the driver rolled the window, Enzo. "I need your help…"I whispered, he stared at me but then nodded,"Get on, tell me what you need."
"Help me disappear for the time being, I'm gonna kill the siren but I need time to heal."
He nodded, I walked to the passengers seat and got on."Then I guess we are on the same terms, darling, no word to Bonnie though."
I just nodded,"We need a witch…" I fell asleep after that. I was too weak to stay awake, I didn't feel well in general. Hell destroyed me at this point, I was scared, paranoid and out of my mind.
