Chapter 35: Power in These Eyes

Beck Oliver (asleep), Master Bedroom

Sleeping with a lot of covers on him, Beck dreamt about more of who he is as a mix blood and what connections he has to a certain Founding Father of the Mixed Bloods. In his dream he was inside of a room, a bedroom to be exact. The bed was made out of crystal and the covers felt more softer than silk and far more warmer than any fabric he had ever felt. He opened his eyes and stared up at the roof of the bedroom, there was a mural or painting of a man in black and red armor leading a vampire army against the Elemental natives of the lands of Europe and North Africa.

Beck rubbed his eyes and stepped out of bed, he looked around him and saw pictures of a young boy with long silver hair in a white outfit. His skin was milky white, eyes as blue as the summer sky and a look on him like he was still confused about something.

There was the sound of talking between a woman and a boy coming from the balcony of the bedroom, Beck walked slowly over to the see who it was. The balcony had doors and curtains to keep the air out and other critters of the ancient past, Beck opened the door just a bit and saw a woman in a type of white dress with her long silver hair tied in a black scrunchie with black flowers that dangled from a string they were attached to. She had her arm around a boy around the age of 15, she spoke to him about "their eyes" and what a blessing they were.

"Excel…don't feel bad about having my eyes, your brother might have inherited your father's body and strength; but my eyes and spiritual energy are just as strong as your father. It's this reason why you will be able to use the many elemental techniques of the creatures your father controls, let me tell you a little secret of these eyes. I named them the Blood Lights not because they look amazing, but because as the calm gentle vampires that you and me are. I prefer to get my blood without dirtying my hands unlike your Brother and Father."

"But mom I don't want to drink blood…I don't want to kill anyone out there, I want them all to live just like we do."

"Excel…you know that's not possible while your father and I rule…but when it's time to pass the thrones to you and Axel; do what you will son, I'll love you either way. Now, how about I teach a few things on what our Blood Lights can do, what do you say son?"

"Sure Mom!"

"Apart from being able to see through objects and people, your left eye can kill anyone in whatever fashion you desire; use only this in self defense or when protecting your wife, children and homeland. Your left eye has a limited range on how far it can see but with that eye you can find anyone and discover all of their secrets, but that eye can also see into one's soul…I'll explain why that is later. Now that you know the basics of your Blood Lights you have to know now that there are levels you can reach with them. Your Brother will only keep getting stronger, which is why our eyes will only get more powerful too."

Beck kept listening and opened the door a bit more, he knew enough that this was a dream but that the dream people were aware of his presence. He listened in to the mother explaining levels to her son.

"Because of the fear I feel for you father sometimes Excel…I have trained and struggled to get my eyes to a level so far up that if your father found out, he might want me dead."

Excel held his mother's hand and locked fingers with her.

"Because I am female vampire, Excel…it was a lot tougher for me to reach the level that I'm at. But because you are a boy and filled with so much more fighting energy, you will leave your own mother in the dust."

Excel smiled at his mother and his mother kissed him on his forehead, Beck's dream was disappearing and he could feel it, he opened the balcony doors and asked both of them to help him understand how to control his power. Excel's mother disappeared like smoke, just like the entire setting around him. Only he and Excel were left in the dark, Beck fell on his knees and stared at the blackness under him. Excel walked up to him and knelt down, Beck lifted his head and looked into Excel's eyes. Their blood lights activated and like a flash…Beck was awake.

Beck Oliver (Awake)

Beck opened his eyes and stared up at the roof of his bedroom, just like in his dream he hoped to see a painting on the roof. But there was no painting. He stepped out of his bed and went over to take a look outside of his window, expecting to find Excel and his mother. But his home lacked a balcony which made him sad, Beck heard footsteps coming upstairs and didn't bother to turn to see who it was. Instead he activated his Blood Lights to see if he could see something with only his right eye open. He looked all around his room and saw slowly what it looked like before he, Tori and his new friends got home. Like a replay button, Beck saw Daniel teleport into his room and just destroy his room and belongings. With his claws out, he tore up the walls, destroyed the cabinets wrote graffiti on the walls and left a picture on the bed before moving to the rest of the house.

The door opened up to Tori who had a somber expression on her face, she saw Beck was already awake and scanning the room with one of his Blood Lights; the non murderous one. Beck deactivated his technique and looked over to Tori who looked like she had been working non stop. Beck became angry but didn't explode, he sat on his bed and looked at her.

"You shouldn't try so hard to hide these things from me Tori…if you continue to hide these things…I'll hide things from you."

Tori thought he was talking about the graffiti or that their house was vandalized. But his finger pointed to one of the pockets of her pants, she dropped a dirty rag that she was holding and reached into her back pocket. She took out the picture of her and Daniel together and slowly handed it to Beck, Beck grabbed the picture and looked at it. The picture was an old Polaroid picture, in it Tori hugged and Kissed Daniel on his cheek while going to a fair at night in the remote past. Beck's apparent blistering anger melted the picture as Tori watched. He stood up and placed a hand on her shoulder, and spoke

"I don't think I want to have sex with you tonight Tori…I don't care about tomorrow and I could care less about it down the future. I'm hungry, I'm angry…if anything I'm just gonna use those three out there to get my revenge. I'm going out to get us dinner…I'll leave you four to finish erasing this crap on the walls. Even though my right eye allows me to see the horrible things people do; and that includes the actions of Daniel. Nothing will erase it…NOTHING."

Beck walked out of his bedroom and was met with Ellie, Isaac and Cynthia standing outside listening in on them. Beck ignored them and walked down the stairs, all of their furniture, their food which became spoiled and all the other little things were thrown out from being spoiled and destroyed. Their home was empty and hollow, just the exact opposite of what Beck was feeling. He changed his hands into claws and sharpened them, grazing his blades with one another. The snow under his feet melted and gave way to the soil. He took of at maximum speed and disappeared.

Isaac went after him and allowed the girls to take care of Tori who fell on her bed crying, Isaac ran out and touched the ground; he did this to find the direction Beck took. With a link on him, Isaac too took off running.
