Salvatore Estate~1864 Stefan runs out of the house with a wooden stake that he got out of the basement until the flashback of him waiting on the doorstep of the old Salvatore Estate appears with a flash of light. A carriage arrives in front of him. Birdie Mae exits the carriage and observed him for a moment then Stefan approaches her after Birdie smoothed out the beautiful girls dress. Stefan:"you must be Miss Pierce." Isabela:"please, call me Isabela." ~~~***~~~ Salvatore Boarding House I just stood there frozen, but I remain my composure,"what are you? What are you?" Stefan:"you know?" Nevaeh:"no, I don't know anything." Stefan:"yes, you do, or you wouldn't be here." Nevaeh:"it's not possible. It can't be." Stefan:"everything you know...and every belief that you have is about to change. Are you ready for that?" Nevaeh:"what are you?" I asked again. Stefan:"I'm a vampire." I backed away,"I shouldn't have come." I started walking away. Stefan vamp speed in front of me,"no. Please." Nevaeh:"no. No. How did you do that?" Stefan:"please don't be afraid of me." He grabs my hands. Nevaeh:"let me go." Stefan:"no. Nevaeh, there's things that you have to know and understand." Nevaeh:"let me go!" Stefan:"Nevaeh, please!" I ran to the car and got in the passenger seat, and Elena backed out of the driveway and drove off. Nevaeh:"oh, my god, Stefan is a vampire." Elena:"everything is gonna be ok Nev. we'll eat some ice cream when we get home." I smiled at my twin sister. ~~~***~~~ Gilbert Residence Elena and I got back to the house. Elena walked to the kitchen and I walked up to my room.

When I walked into my room, I saw Stefan. And I was freaking out. Stefan:"Nevaeh." I tried to run out of my room until Stefan pushes the door shut and corners me against the door. Stefan:"I would never hurt you. You're safe with me." Nevaeh:"all those animal attacks, those people who died..." Stefan:"no. That was Damon!" Nevaeh:"Damon?" Stefan:"yes. I don't drink human blood. That's not how I choose to survive, but Damon does! I'll explain everything to you, but I beg you, Nevaeh, do not tell anybody." Nevaeh:"how can you ask me that?" Stefan:"because you knowing this is dangerous for so many reasons. You can hate me, but I need you trust me." Nevaeh:"just go. Just go, please. Go. If you mean me no harm, then you'll go!" Stefan:"I never wanted this." I opened my bedroom door when he left. I went downstairs to see Elena made me and her an ice cream sundae. ~~~***~~~ Cemetery Damon was burning some bodies after he feed and was on the phone with Stefan. Stefan:"hello?" Damon:"I want my ring." Stefan:"where are you?" Damon:"I'm at a sizzler. I had a buffet. Where's my ring?" Stefan:"I don't have it. Where are you? What have you done?" Damon:"no, what have you done? You're the one that locked me in the basement and starved me, so whatever I've done, whoever I've sucked dry is on you, buddy." Stefan:"you're being careless. How many more animal attacks is this town gonna believe, huh?" Damon:"I know how to cover my tracks, Stefan. Where's my ring?" Stefan:"I gave it to Zach to hide. Probably shouldn't have killed him." Damon:"...ah, you almost got me. Where is my ring?" Stefan:"I'll get it back, but I need time." Damon:"what, did you FedEx it to Rome?! Where is it? I want my ring, or the next stop is Nevaeh's." Stefan:"I already want you dead. Don't give me another reason to make it happen." Damon:"don't give me another reason to rip you apart." Stefan:"yeah? Is that gonna be before or after you get your ring back?" Damon:"just get it." He hangs up the phone. He looks down at Vicki's body when she moves. Damon:"you just don't want to stay dead, do you?" ~~~***~~~ Nevaeh was sleeping in her room. Stefan is outside her house guarding her family from Damon. ~~~***~~~ Mystic Grill

Stefan and I we're outside sitting at a table. Nevaeh:"you said you would explain everything. That's why I asked you to meet me here. When you Google "vampire" you get a world of fiction. What's the reality?" Stefan:"I can tell you whatever you wanna know." Nevaeh:"I know that you eat garlic." Stefan:"yes." Nevaeh:"and somehow, sunlight is not an issue." A waitress came up with our food. Waitress:"hi, here's you drinks and your food." Nevaeh:"thank you." The waitress then leaves. Stefan:"we have daylight rings that protect us." Nevaeh:"crucifixes?" Stefan:"decorative." Nevaeh:"holy water?" Stefan:"drinkable." Nevaeh:"mirrors?" Stefan:"myth." Nevaeh:"you said that you don't kill to survive." Stefan:"animal blood keep me alive, but not as strong as Damon. He can be very powerful." Nevaeh:"and yet you let him get involved with my sister?" Stefan:"forcing Damon not to do something is much more dangerous, believe me." Nevaeh:"he was hurting her!" Stefan:"he was feeding on her. He was able to take away her memories of being bitten using a form of mind compulsion. She never knew what was happening to her. If he wanted to kill her, he would have." Nevaeh:"I'd that supposed to make it ok?" Stefan:"no. No, none of this is ok, Nevaeh. I know that." Nevaeh:"are there any others, aside from you and Damon?" Stefan:"not in Mystic Falls; not anymore." Nevaeh:"not anymore?" Stefan:"there was a time when this town was well aware of vampires, and it didn't end well for anybody. That's why it's important that you don't tell anyone." Nevaeh:"I can't promise that." Stefan:"Nevaeh...give me today. I will answer any questions that you have, and when it's over, you can decide for yourself what you wanna do with what you know. It'll be your choice." ~~~***~~~ Woods Stefan and I are driving through the woods in my car. Stefan:"stop here." Nevaeh:"what are we doing here?" We got out of the car. Stefan:"I want you to show you something." Nevaeh:"in the middle of nowhere?" Stefan:"this...didn't used to be nowhere. Used to be my home." Nevaeh:"it looks so..." Stefan:"old? It's because they are." Nevaeh:"wait. How long have you..." Stefan:"I've been 17 years old since 1864." I did the math in my head, that would make him, 162 years old,"oh, my god." Stefan:"you said you wanted to know. I'm not gonna hold anything back. Half a century before the boarding house was even built, this was my family's home. Damon and I...we were both born here. The Salvatore brothers, best friends." ~~~***~~~
