Leaving

Write about a character leaving something, or someone, they love.

Inevitable

My body feels heavy in a way I have never felt before, as I carry a burden that I always knew was to be mine.


I danced my way through life, avoiding the inevitable outcome of the prophecy.


_Family. Friends. Lovers. Enemies. Strangers. _Even they were not as blind as me.


For a prophecy is something that is undoable and I have been tarnished with that truth since birth. Yet for some reason I truly believed that I could outrun the inevitable. That I could truly change what the universe had set in stone for me.


Not many people are born with a curse racing through their very being but for me it is all I have ever known. I guess I thought that the time would not arrive and the responsibility would simply fall to another victim but I should have known that the world is so very cruel. As that is the truth i have always known.


There is always the option for me to stay and be selfish for once in my life. However, that would be an even larger curse than the one placed upon me. A curse that would effect the entire world.


_So i must leave and fulfil my duty._
