I Am Reapers Daughter

16: Ceres: Powers Fully Awaken

So I got in trouble. My parents found me asleep; they thought it was normal until they saw the bottle of sleeping pills. I did wake up since they use some injection to wake me up. But it was fine. I had my answer. I know what I need to do.

And so I manage to control my visions. Little by little I saw bits of the future. The female, Vivian, is helping me get through it. I even unleashed those mystery powers everyone wants to protect.

I even discover Star, is a witch. She was the one that had sneaked into my room that one time. And Omar is an angel. Recently Jeffrey has become a wolf. They all lie to me. Even Blake. He's going to betray me, well I won't let him. Blake's father is manipulating him. Blake doesn't even know what his father is hiding from him. But I'll tell him, soon. I'm keeping this secret to myself. I mean my powers.

"Morning," I yawned. I had fallen asleep at Blake's again. He seemed nervous around me. Well, of course, he is, after what I told him yesterday. And the mark I gave him. That mark is just a regular mark. It will burn if he tries to betray me. "I should get going."

"Yeah," he said. "See later."

"I'll see you after new years maybe," I said. "I love you," I said, and Blake only tenses up. "Bye." I walked out.

As I did, I giggled to myself. I know what I'm doing is wrong. But if I can change Blake, I could change the future. But I first have to save Michael.

I know if I save him, someone else will lose their life. And I wouldn't be able to live with that. But Michael a baby, he hasn't lived long enough. And I'll make it possible.

But its luck wasn't on my side. During new years, my father didn't let me go out anywhere. He kept me by his side at all time. It was frustrating.

"Who's a cute baby?" I held Andy. Any drool, I wiped it. "Yes, you are."

"Ceres don't he just ate," mother said. "Don't lift him up."

"Whoops," I giggled and held him in my arms. He will be a handsome young man. I have seen it.

After new years. My father didn't let me go out. I had to go. I needed to leave the house. Michael accident was approaching.

"But dad!" He glared.

"No buts," he said. "Let it happen Ceres. Don't mess with death."

"Mother," I looked at my mother for help.

"I'm sorry," she said. "I can't do anything. I don't understand how death works."

I sighed and just went into my room. I would sneak out of the window. But it had a barrier. Omar had put it up because my father ordered it I was basically on lockdown. And I so didn't like it. I wanted to be out there. With Michael, watching over him.

I was so close to getting out of the house. But my father paralyzed me. He was sitting beside me talking to me.

"David will take care of it," he said. "Ceres, I know you want to stop it. But you can't mess with death. Life is short. You can't save everyone. When it's their time, then you must let it go."

I have to get out of here. I need to leave. Need to save Michael.

"You don't understand," I said. "Michael, his innocent. Father, I've seen it. The world you are trying to prevent. It doesn't matter if you keep me away I have seen it."

"What?" He sounded shocked. I manage to move my finger.

"I saw it all," I said. "I saw everything through my dreams. Those dreams are visions. I manage to control them. I've unleashed my powers." I moved my hand. "I know what I can do. And I won't let Michael die, because Michael and Blake are blood-related! That man he calls father killed his real mother and took away the baby!" I sat up and ran to the window. I felt strong. And suddenly a dark mist began to cover my hand. And it swirls around until a scythe appeared.

"Ah," my father had changed into his reaper form and had his out. My father wouldn't fight me would he?

This scythe is double-sided. 'You have awoken your powers,' my father said. 'And have summoned your scythe. A double-sided scythe.'

"Is that bad?" I asked.

'I'm not sure,' he said. 'Since you are the first female reaper.' Am I the first?

'Whoa!' Andrew and David appeared. 'Finally!'

'Its too late,' David said. 'The child will pass on soon.'

I shook my head. I felt so much anger that the house started shaking.

'Ceres stop!' My father said.

I calm down. Maybe I didn't have full control of this. If this what will happen if I get angry. But I've gotten angry before, and nothing like this ever happened. Or has it happened, and I never notice. I didn't have time to think about I jumped out the window and landed on my own two feet. I'm liking being a reaper.

As I ran, I heard my father behind me. Why don't they give up?

And it wasn't long before Jeffrey, Star, and Omar joined. It was the middle of the afternoon. So yeah. I don't think the people below saw us.

"You all lie to me!" I yelled. "Star you're a witch, Omar is an angel. And you Jeffrey a wolf! Why didn't you all tell me?!"

"It was to protect you!" Star yelled. "Bad people are trying to gain control of you; I order to control your powers. Ceres listen to us; please stop. You can't do nothing about the child."

"Stop!" Omar yelled. "The child will go to heaven."

"Be quiet!" I yelled. "Michael and Blake are brothers, biological! If I can save Michael, then I can change Blake. Now stay out of my way!" I used my scythe without even thinking. And it sends a very bright light at them. And they were gone. Did I kill them? I hope not.

I ran, not looking back at them, I headed towards Blake's home. But when I got there, it was empty.

It's as if no one lived there. It was utterly abandoned I asked the neighbor, and they told me, that the family moved out this morning.

Why would they move out? Why? What's going on? I called Blake. He answered.

"Blake," I grip the phone. "Where are you?"

"I'll make sure you pay!" He said. "Your father will pay for this! For taking his life! This problem was only supposed to be between him and me, and he took it out on Michael! I'll take my revenge, by taking what he loves most. I'll take you down first; then all will fall like falling dominoes." He hanged up.

Was I too late?

-------------------------------

Oh, no poor Michael.

Ceres will make a desperate move. That can cause her, her life.

Now let's move on t the next chapter.
