Third person P.O.V.
Alex had left a letter on a napkin on the coffee table for Luke and calum to see. She couldn't let him do this alone. She was scared something bad will happen to him. She held on for a long time now and she knew she wasn't letting go any time soon. She took a deep breath and headed out of the door.
"Alex,when did you get out of the-" carmen said as soon as she saw the familiar figure of her sister standing at the door.
"Give me the address to the mansion."
"You can't go there are you crazy?"
"Yes, now give me the address."
When she realised her sister wasn't changing her mind anytime soon she gave in and gave her the address.

"Luke wake up" calum said gently as he read the letter Alex had left.
'I cant let him do this alone. I'll be back. With him xx'
"What?" Luke said with sleepiness and tiredness laced to his voice.
Calum simply handed the letter to Luke that made him immediately jump and reach for his jacket.
"Luke, baby, wait for me." Calum said putting his shoes on. Luke just nodded and dialed alex' sister number.
Calum walked towards him and threw his arm around Luke's shoulders as a very worried carmen answered the phone.
'Go to the mansion. Now!'
Luke looked at calum in confusion while calum knew exactly what she was talking about. They both thanked her and hung up.
"What was she talking about?what mansion?" Luke said panting after sitting in the passenger seat.
"The mansion is where both Alex and Michael are now. We grew up there. All of us"
"Us as in?" Luke looked at his boyfriend as he started the engine. Calum placed his sweaty hands on the wheel.
"The immortals."

"I can feel it." Michael said with eyes full of tears.
"I know son"
"I'm scared"
"It's indeed scary, but you have something that none of us has. You have everything, in the palm of your hands. What you're going through right now is just the beginning and this will only show you who you are or can be. Nothing more nothing less. Believe in yourself Michael. And remember, you wouldn't be able to know what's good if you haven't seen the bad, and vise versa. Now, let's go outside. The people are waiting." Daryl said placing his hand on Michael's shoulder.
Michael didn't have any choice but to follow his dad outside where everybody were waiting. He felt pathetic in that suit, and he hated how everybody were dressed up and laughing, as if what is going to happen is for their entertainment. He felt sick to his stomach when one of his relatives gave a speech and Michael's eyes were darkening and the light in them was fading out slowly within every minute. He took a deep breath as he looked up the cloudy sky waiting for the moon to make an appearance.
A lone tear crawled down Michael's cheek as the tattoo behind his ear started burning the skin. He chewed on his bottom lip trying to forget the pain he was in. Everything aches. His whole body hurts, all he could hear is high whistles, all he could see is black.

Alex found herself where Michael first took her. The place with the swing. She just observed and a picture of them both playing around burned to the back of her mind. She felt her heart sink and thought it literally skipped a beat. She placed her hand over her heart and knew something was happening.
She ran. She let What's left of her memory lead her way. her throat felt tight, and she felt like her lungs were giving out but she ran, she ran for him. she finally found herself in front of big gates that eventually opened wide. she went in and pushed past people to find michael.
"michael" she called out.
" what are you doing here?" he said coldly.
"michael i-"
"are you here to watch me suffer too?" alex looked into his eyes and she noticed that they did not seem to match the feelings he was showing, in fact they were screaming for help.
"how dare you say that?" she winced as she realized the pain in her stomach. " im here to help you."
"bullshit" michael scoffed. "you need to leave alex." daryl said.
"i remember you" she turned her attention to his father.
"you heard what i said."
" i. am. not. leaving." alex said with a warning tone.
"shoot her" daryl suddenly said.
the man stood in front of the pair and pointed his gun at her.
"go ahead! do it!" she said, tears falling freely down her face, not just because of the deadly situation, but because michael wasn't doing anything about it. she didn't know what she was doing and all she could think about is how her life turned upside down in a blink of an eye.
"alex!" calum screamed madly behind her. she turned around to see the couple standing there looking at her with anger written all over their faces.
michael on the other hand let out a pained scream wich caused daryl to yell at the guard telling him to shoot. a loud bang was heard and made alex wince. but what's even worse is hearing an oh so familiar voice scream.
"calum!"
the light in michael's eyes seemed to shine again as he took off his tux and ran to his bestfriend laying on the floor.
"calum,baby can you hear me?" luke said cupping his boyfriend's face with one hand while the other was lifting his head up.
"l-luke" calum choked out.
"yes baby im here, stay with me okay?" luke cried. "somebody tell me what the fuck do i do? do something!" luke screamed while everybody in there were nervously turning their heads away. alex walked there only to get stopped by michael.
"let go micahel!" she said as she tried to snatch her hand away and push past him. he simply hugged the girl tightly forcing her to bury her head in his chest even though she was still trying to push past him. she finally gave in and hugged him back digging her nails in the material of his flannel.
"why is this happening to us? i can't take this anymore" they both cried hearing luke's screams as soon as calum's heart gave out. they tried to take luke away but he clung onto calum's cold body crying and sobbing out loud, telling him to wake up and that he loved and needed him.
"move away" michael screamed at luke who had no other choice but to move. alex and luke watched michael as he started saying something that none of them could make up what it is.
"michael no!" daryl screamed and made luke and alex jump.
"what is he doing?" alex said with concern.
"he's reversing the curse" daryl said. "he's going to let the darkness consume him completely to give life back to calum" he continued.
"what?" alex said. " michael!" was the last thing he heard before everything went black.
