1 Prologe 2.0

I found myself enveloped in an endless expanse of darkness, and a profound loneliness crept over me. Yet, amidst this emptiness, I couldn't shake off the inexplicable feeling that I wasn't alone.

'How did I end up here?'

The memory of my death was fuzzy and distant, leaving me with more questions than answers.

Despite the eerie quiet surrounding me, I heard a faint, almost imperceptible hum emanating from the void. It was a distant sound, but it beckoned me, drawing me closer with its captivating melody. I couldn't resist its allure, and soon, I followed the sound, trying to trace its origins.

As I ventured deeper into the darkness, the hum grew louder, filling my ears and permeating my soul. With each step, I could feel myself becoming more attuned to its rhythms, lost in the hypnotic cadence of the hum. It was like the sound was a living, breathing entity guiding me through this abyss.

As I ventured further toward the source of the beguiling hum, a person slowly emerged from the darkness before me. It was a woman with skin as dark and smooth as the finest chocolate. Her eyes were closed as she swayed gently to the captivating rhythms. Her movements were so graceful, almost ethereal, and I couldn't help but be mesmerized by her beauty.

As I drew nearer, her eyes suddenly snapped open, revealing a piercing pair of emerald eyes that seemed to peer into my soul. A jolt of surprise ran through me, but a sense of awe and wonder quickly replaced it.

"Hello, my child," she said, her voice a lilting melody that seemed to echo in the stillness around us. "Me?" I asked, my confusion evident in my voice. "Yes, you," she laughed, like the tinkling of tiny bells. I was struck by the warmth and kindness radiating from her.

"I am Gaia, little one," she continued, and at the sound of her name, I realized that she was the embodiment of Mother Nature and personification of the earth . "And I am here to offer you a new chance at life."

I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Was this some dream or hallucination? But as I gazed into her luminous eyes, I couldn't help but ask what was on my mind.

"Why me?" I questioned, my voice barely above a whisper.

"Why not you?" Gaia replied, a gentle smile on her lips. "I've seen the life you've lived, the struggles you've endured," she said to me. "And I can't help but feel sorry for you. But you know what? You deserve another chance at life, to live free and become who you were always meant to be."

Her words struck a chord deep within me as she spoke, and my eyes widened in surprise. It was as if she understood me on a level that no one else had before, and the care and concern in her voice made me feel indeed seen and heard.

"Thank you," I said, my voice choking with emotion.

Gaia placed a hand on my shoulder, her touch warm and soothing. "Do not thank me yet, little one," she said. "This new life will not be without its challenges and trials. But know that I will be there to guide you and to help you find your way."

A glimmer of curiosity sparkled in my eyes as I asked, "Could you tell me where I would go in this new life?"

She smiled serenely, her emerald eyes dancing with otherworldly light. "You will be sent to a world teeming with supernatural creatures such as vampires, werewolves, and witches," she said. Her voice filled with a hint of mystery and intrigue.

I nodded, my heart racing with excitement and trepidation. And then Gaia dropped a bombshell. "I believe you have already witnessed a glimpse of this world," she said, her gaze piercing through me. "Through a show called The Vampire Diaries."

My jaw dropped in shock. How could she know about the TV show I had binged-watched for weeks? Was this some joke?

But then I realized that Gaia was not one to joke. She was serious, deadly serious.

As I stood there, lost in thought, Gaia stepped closer. Her skin was warm, and her eyes glowed with an otherworldly light, reflecting the powerful magic that flowed through her veins.

Gaia said with a gentle smile that she would have to send me off soon. "I cannot remain in the void for a prolonged period," she said, her voice filled with a hint of regret.

Before she sent me off, Gaia leaned in and kissed my forehead tenderly. I felt a calm yet assertive sensation travel through my body as if every cell in my being had been infused with a spark of power. It was a feeling akin to motherly love, and for a moment, all of my fears and doubts vanished.

As she looked me in the eyes, Gaia spoke once more. "You now have my blessing, my child," she said, her voice soft yet resolute. "Use it wisely, and may it guide you in your new world."

I nodded, feeling a sense of gratitude and humility wash over me. Gaia's blessing was not something to be taken lightly.

Gaia reached out to me with a bright smile, and I could feel the power emanating from her. Light started surrounding it, and it grew brighter and brighter until it was almost blinding.

Then, without warning, the light enveloped me, and everything went white. I felt weightless as if I was floating on a cloud. I closed my eyes and let the sensation wash over me.

I could hear Gaia's voice whispering in my ear. "May your journey be filled with light and love," she said, her voice soft and gentle.

( Fist chapter will drop next week; I just wanted to post this for those waiting. Hopefully, it will tide you over)

Also, what do you guys think Gais's Blessing is?
