Title is Greek for the word 'cursed'

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


~~ Death's Point Of View ~~

"Oh my head... Ashton I'm going to kill you for this" I said sitting up holding a very sore head. It felt like a hangover only worse.

I tried to open my eyes; it took a while for my eyes to adjust to the surroundings. It was bright, the sky was clear and blue and I sat on soft green grass. I knew this place but I couldn't seem to recall where it was.
I was on a farm, in the distance I could see a farmer cutting down wheat with their scythe as he worked in the blazing sun. I groggily got myself up off the ground and brushed my clothing off. Clothing that wasn't mine, I worse a simple dress old fashioned dress, definitely not of wealth it was covered in dirt and seemed to be fairly worn out, to top it off I was getting suffocated in a infernal corset.

I tried to teleport out of this place but I couldn't, I couldn't teleport at all. Muttering the odd curse word under my breathe I picked up my skirts and made my way over to the farmer, I had to figure out where I was, and how to get away from this place.

As I approached him he turned to me a warm smile spreading across his face. "Anastasía, edó gia na sas voithísei?"
I was taken aback for a moment raking through my mind on what language that was and what he said.
Greek, he had spoken in Greek I hadn't spoken this language since being a child. My parents spoke English which I was raised on but I was also taught Greek as the rest of my family spoke it, although I never saw them growing up, my father was an asshole.
"Eísai kalá?" He asked (Are you okay?)
Then it all fell into place, I was at my uncle's farm. My mother had sent me here for a few weeks to get away from father.
"Eísai kalá?" he asked again
Are you ok? Was i?
"Ti chroniá eínai?" I asked instantly (What year is it?)
He gave me a look as if I was crazy "1802"
"Fuck, I'm back in 1802" I cursed loudly
He gave an odd look wondering what I said. I had forgotten my uncle didn't speak any English at all, my aunty on the other hand did.
I paced back and forth in front of him wondering how I even got here to this time.
"Eísai kalá?" he asked again (Are you okay?)
"I'm fine, get off my ass would you" I snapped
I received a scolding look.
"syngnómi theíos" I apologised to him (Sorry Uncle)
He gave me a kind smile. "páei na vrei i theía sas. échei douleiá gia sas" (Go find your Aunt, she has work for you)
I smiled to him and walked to the farm house where my aunt would most likely be. At least I didn't have to go and remember a language from 2000 or so years ago.
"Anastasia" she said cheerfully as I walked into the house.
"Aunt" I smiled "I am not meant to be here"
"nonsense dear" she said dusting and odd looking object
"no aunt, I'm from the wrong timeline, I'm 2000 years behind my lifetime" I don't know why I was trying to explain it to her it was useless.
"humans don't live that long dear, where is this talk coming from"
"I'm not human aunt, I'm an angel. I died like three months from now"
"You had a vision?" she said quietly "you mustn't tell anyone you will be burnt alive for witchcraft"
This is frustrating
"Well you are so much help, fuck sakes"
my aunt looked as if she just had a heart attack
"that is no way for a woman to speak" she scolded
"Oh to hell with your shit, I'm leaving to the village to find someone who knows what I'm talking about"
"Anastasia" she scolded again "stop this unladylike talk, if you wish to go to the village then take this for me" she said pointing to a large crate. It was full of clothing.
"Very well" I said walking over to it
"I shall get your uncle to load it into the cart"
"no need I can manage just fine" I said going to pick it up.
I couldn't. The crate was too heavy for me to lift the slightest
I had lost my strength, my ability to teleport, everything I had is gone.
"Curse these useless human bodies" I snapped storming off out the door.

As I walked through the door I expected to walk out to the farm but I didn't I ended up outside my house. My father was standing there with a scythe in his hand, my scythe even though it was the older version, He did this.
"Oi asshole" I yelled and he spun around, surprised at first then his face gloomed down realizing who it was. "What the fuck have you done to me? I know it was you. You were the last one I saw before I passed out why the fuck am I living through my memories again? You think I want this shit? My past was fucking horrible because of you asshole"
I was now in front of him my eyes burning with anger. He simply laughed at me.
Oh I was ready to snap
"dear daughter" he began "this is the only way I can communicate with you so far. I have to organize a few more things before we can meet in person yet"
"What? I snapped "you're not alive, I killed you. Twice for that matter"
"indeed I am dear daughter. But soon enough I will rise"
"oh fuck off you will, I'll put you back in the fucking ground in pieces if you rise again and I will enjoy every last fucking bit of it"
"oh but you are too busy to do that training your new boyfriend"
I threw a punch at him but it did nothing. Fucking weak human bodies.
"I know about the bond dear. I know everything that is going on in your life. I will admit it was hard to begin with but then when I brainwashed your roommate, what was his name?" he stood there thinking for a moment
"Decker that's it. When I brainwashed him to hate you and work for me that's when I got in. when you began to turn human again. Although you had to run to that dirty warlock; he cleansed you, indeed I thought I was defeated; I thought I had lost the tie I had to you I knew you wouldn't let any that close to you again, but then I found the tie again it was weak and faint and took years to build again but here I am"
"I killed my best friend because of you" I said quietly pain filling my heart
"oh don't be silly Anastasia, he did that all himself he just needed a little push in the right direction"
"I killed my best friend because of you" I said harsher this time "You are the reason I'm cursed"
"Don't be silly Anastasia, you are the reason you are cursed remember, looking into the elders mind like that"
Well he did have a point that is the reason behind the curse the black wings were his fault though.
"Fuck you" I snapped launching at him. I fell to the ground with black mist surrounding me
"I see why you enjoy teleporting daughter" he said looking at the scythe. It suddenly began to alter into the recent version of it, I hadn't changed much over the years I smoothed out the handle so I stopped getting splinters and sharpened the other side of the blade so I could cut both sides rather than restricted to one.
He had all my abilities while he held my scythe. I had to get my hands in it and I could finally get out of this infernal place.
"oh daughter all hope is lost" he said obviously reading my mind "you won't get the scythe, I am to powerful and we will be stuck inside your head until I am ready then I shall release you and destroy everything you have built"
"you are so cliché" I said
This obviously wasn't the answer he expected as he looked taken aback for a moment.
He ignored it and carried on with his rehearsed script
"until next time daughter" and he was gone.
I continued to sit on the ground going through the events in my head
"fuck" I yelled frustrated
"Anastaisa?" I kind soft sweet voice said stepping outside
"Mother?"
