A Way to Heal

Chapter Eleven

My Purpose

(Twenty-One Years Later)

"I'm sorry Elena," I whispered, looking at the clock above the kitchen wall. Almost all of my family had died in the eighteen years that I had come back. There

were cousins that were still alive and little sister, but my parents were both killed in a car accident that I didn't think was an accident at all. There are times

that I would hate to look at myself and know that I was the cause of the deaths within my family and there are other times that I blame myself for ever coming

home. Nana had died four years ago and grandpa a little while before that; then my mother and father had died. Soon after my aunt and uncle had been killed

in New York by carbon monoxide while they were vacationing. Their son and adopted daughter was still alive but Kyleigh was eaten up with cancer. She was

almost dead and she had no husband or kids. On the other hand, Carson, my cousin and her brother was married and his wife was expecting their first child.

She was a high risk pregnancy though and she was very pretty. Her name was Dena and she had strawberry blonde hair with a reddish tent to it. Her eyes

were as blue as the sky and she was almost thirty-two. My other uncle and aunt had died; one of cancer and the other of heartbreak. Their four children

was only have way surviving. Spencer the oldest son and child is suffering from lung cancer for smoking so long while playing in the major leagues.

His sisters Debranna and Ellie hasn't been heard out of for almost three years now and the youngest, Levi, has been doing well. His son is almost three

now and he has dedicated his life to not only his son but his brother too. They are inseparable and Levi's wife died giving birth to his son, Walker.

"Maybe it's time to pay Tucker a phone call," I whispered as I slowly got up and looked around at his picture frame that was hanging on the wall.

I quickly dialed my son's number and when he answered I smiled. "Hello son," I whispered as I smiled. Tucker's deep voice answered my back. "Hey mom.

What are you up to?" he asked. "Nothing much, what about you?" I asked. "Heading out with a few friends to the grocery store and then to grab a bite,"

Tucker responded back. I smiled faintly and then Tucker said, "I'm coming home tonight. There is something that tells me that I need to return home and

visit the best mother in the world." I smiled and said, "Well I'll have your favorite thing to eat tomorrow night for supper." Tucker gave me a chuckle and

said, "Love you mom and I'll see you later on tonight." I smiled and the phone line went dead.

Sure enough, around ten-thirty Tucker pulled into the drive way and I smiled. I wasn't that old of a mother and as soon as I came jogging almost running out

of the house I heard them. Everyone was watching as Tucker had come home for the first time in three years. That's when I knew that it was my time to

fulfill my purpose. "Let me go," I whispered. As Tucker turned my lose from a hug I smiled sweetly at him and from behind us came the werewolves and to

the front of us came the vampires and in the lead of the vampires there was Apollo. His smirk is the very same one I had saw in my vision. Damon frowned

but didn't say anything and then they all saw my face. Katherine gasped and covered her mouth with her hand. "She has broken her promise and her

connection with Elena," Katherine said, with a sad look on her face. Stefan just stood there and Apollo's smirk faded and then his attention turned to

meet Tucker's form. "You took my mother away from me!" Apollo growled with a pain filled voice. "And you took my father away from me!" Tucker growled.

I stood there and looked at my son's face and then I looked at Apollo's face. "You took away the only mother that I would have ever known!" Apollo

growled. "And you made sure that you killed your mother during the birth and that your father went insane and killed my father! The only father I would

have ever known," Tucker growled. That's when he was standing on all four legs and his wolf form was a mixture. Jake had told me about Jaxon's form

and color of a wolf and I was so happy that I knew someone that knew my lover that close. But this time I was half way changed and was standing

on the line of the wolves and the vampires. Then a white mist made it's appearance and it started to take a shape beside where I was standing.

"It's alright, Apollo. You were never meant to grow up with Makayla as your mother because Katherine was the mother to you. She didn't have a chance

to be your mother and Tucker was in the works. Makayla was a single mother just out of college and she needed a chance to raise her son and give

him all of the love that he needed. Most of his life was already thrown away and his father didn't have the power to come back to see or talk to his son.

Katherine did a fine job of raising you but I see you still got a hold of your grandfather's ignorance. John's ignorance is what killed him and if Makayla

wouldn't have called me back you would have died today because Makayla would've killed you to keep her son alive," Elena said looking with concern

of a mother to her only son. "She would have killed me today?" Apollo asked almost astonished. "She is a triplare and a werewolf along with a vampire.

Her eternity is already been signed and fated with the mark of Damon and Klaus. When they turned her she was forever to stay here on earth and

be here until God came to get the souls of the people and give judgment," Elena said. We all stood there staring at Elena's face. "What do you mean

she is a triplare?" Damon asked. "Katherine followed her bloodline after her great granddaughter and she was puzzled over how a sixteen year old girl

out of wedlock became pregnant without ever dating or falling in love with a boy. Well she didn't fall in love with a boy, she fell in love with an angel.

Makayla's bloodline was off of that girl that had a child from an angel; a few years later another angel fell in love with a descendant of that angel and

that sixteen year old girl. Makayla is a triplare that doesn't have her powers because her vampire side is hiding her werewolf side and her werewolf

side is hiding her triplare powers. There are only seven triplares in the world at once. If we can find the third triplare then we could win the battle

that is soon to come," Elena said looking more at me than at anyone else. "And I know who the next triplare is," I whispered. Everyone waited

and was quiet as a tear dropped from my cheek and I turned to look at my son.

"I have tried to keep you safe for so long, for twenty-one years I have kept you safe. I knew that this day would come because the first day I returned

home with you I knew that you and Apollo would meet one day either in battle or as friends. But I never imagined that you would be the one to have to

fight this battle," I said looking at Tucker's face. "What are you talking about mother?" Tucker asked looking at my face. "I'm a triplare angel, vampire,

and werewolf; your father, Jaxon, was a werewolf, triplare, and warlock. What do you think that makes you?" I asked softly. Tucker's eyes spread wide

and everyone watched in silence as Tucker and they themselves realized what the bloodline meant. "I'm the angel that is meant to kill the monster

that could end the world," Tucker whispered. I sighed and turned away; suddenly I was a werewolf and I took off running out of the oval that had formed

around Elena and I. Damon's eyes widened in shock at my state of form and he was frozen. Jake looked at Tucker and said, "Stay here you have the pack

now and you are their leader. Your mother and I will be away for a few weeks, please, you are your father's son. Do not ever forget who you are."

Then Jake was gone along with his mother. "Goodbye mother, I will never forget you," Tucker whispered knowing what I was about to give up for him.

"Where is she going?" Damon asked starting to finally unfreeze. "She's giving up everything to keep her son alive," Elena whispered. Damon looked at

her beautiful form and his eyes softened but emotions flowed from them. "I know that you feel like you are betraying me, but you love her. Jaxon will

not be happy that you are going after her but it's what you feel for her that has kept you alive all these years," Elena whispered. Suddenly Damon was

gone and Apollo walked up to Tucker and smiled. "Always brothers?" Apollo asked extending his hand to Tucker. Tucker shook his hand and hugged his

adopted brother. "Always brothers," he whispered.
