New York, present day
Hurriedly, she walked through the crowd. She was going to be late for work again. She sighed when she had to wait for the traffic light to turn green. A soft tapping against her left leg made her look down to see what it was. When she saw the little girl next to her, her heart almost stopped. This couldn't be.
The little girl that was the spitting image of a woman she hadn't seen in hundred fifty years. Right then and there she knew it was without a doubt the daughter of the woman she had loved for so long.
She had met the love of her life almost five hundred year ago. They started of as friends as they immediately clicked the first moment they had met. After three hundred years of friendship, they started to realize they were more than that. Slowly they had give in to their love for each other, and they became a couple.
Seeing the daughter of the woman who had disappeared so long ago without explaining much, brought back a lot of memories.
She bent down to get on the same level as the little girl.
"Hey sweetie, what's wrong?" she asked.
"I lost my mommy. Can you help me please?" the little girl asked shyly.
"I will help you" she responded to her own surprise.
"What's your name sweetie?" she asked the little girl.
"Emily. But my mommy usually calls me little Legacy" the girl said with a grin.
"Well Little Legacy, let's go see if we can find your mommy" she said while she took the hand of the little girl in her own hand.
"What's your name?" Little Legacy asked.
"Well believe it or not, but my name is Emily too" she answered.
For the past centuries she had used different names, but today she used the name she had been given almost six hundred fifty years ago.
"Where did you see your mommy the last time?" she asked.
"There" the little girl said pointing to the right.
"Let's see if she still around" she said guiding the girl through the crowd.
Out of nowhere, the girls mother appeared and a wave of emotions went through Emily when she saw that familiar face after hundred fifty years again.
"Stacie" was all she could say.
London, 150 years ago
"I have to go for a while. But I promise I will come back soon" Stacie said to her lover.
"Wait, where are you going? Why? When are you coming back?" a confused Emily asked.
"I can't tell you much. It has to do with that other immortal group the Treble Makers. They're up to no good. I have to make sure that the Bellas are safe" Stacie answered.
"I'll wait for you, my love" Emily answered.
Nearly thirteen hundred years old Stacie was twice her age. They had met five hundred years ago and they had instantly clicked. Their friendship had turned into love and then they began to date. Not openly, because centuries ago, being gay was not appropriate.
Being immortal wasn't easy. And finding a love that survived for centuries was something that didn't happen very often. Somehow most immortal couples, got bored with each other after spending so long together.
They never got bored with each other, somehow they were just meant to be together.
Stacie had taught Emily numerous skills to survive in any circumstances that could occur when you lived for so long.
Emily had taught Stacie the love for music. Emily had been a member of an all female music group and she had introduced Stacie to the Bellas. They were all immortal, with the youngest member being only two hundred years old. The oldest of the group was nearly two thousand years old.
Together they survived a lot of adventures, wars and famines. But they had survived, which wasn't easy for a large group. Their rivals, the Treble Makers did their best to make it difficult for them to survive.
Stacie, the tallest of their group, had made it her personal mission to protect any of the Bellas against their rivals. Together with Lillian another member of their group, they did everything that was necessary to protect them. Both women weren't afraid to use dark magic if they had to.
After Stacie had left, Emily kept waiting and waiting for her lover to come back. But Stacie never came. She tried to reach her but never succeeded. The rest of the Bellas had used their combined forces and contacts to find the two missing members but they failed.
Emily felt lonely for the first time in five hundred years, but she was determined to stay at the place she last saw her lover.
Circumstances forced her to leave the place and not coming back soon. Her neighbors started to get old and eventually died, were she didn't age. People started to accuse her of witchcraft and other horrible things because of that.
So she did what she had to do, leaving her beloved house and moved as far as she could. Forever hoping to see her true love again.
