***

You travelled a lot when you were a kid, your parents never really liked to stay in one place until they got to Mystic Falls, for some reason they decided to stay there and even when you asked them why, they never told you, instead they dodged the question said that they had just been looking for the right place and they finally found it. That wasn't the truth though and you never hear that from them instead you got wrapped up in the world of the supernatural, you were and always have been good at collecting information and putting it all together. You met Stefan Salvatore for that exact reason and you knew the first time that you looked at him that he was someone worth your time, the unfortunate thing was he was focused on someone else entirely.

Elena Gilbert had been one of your friends since you moved to Mystic Falls, her parents and yours were good friends but you found it hard to watch them together, it was easy to see that they were happy but as you looked at them it seemed like they weren't good for each other, Elena had unrealistic expectations for Stefan and he wanted to live up to them and that alone was a bad mix, one that neither of them could see, even after Klaus showed up, that was when you left. There was one place that you hadn't been to and that was New Orleans, your parents had been such to steer clear of it so you decided to go there.

You met Marcel the first day that you got there, though he seemed to know more about you than you did of him "You know I knew the woman who wore that bracelet and I told her never to come back here." He said as he sat next to you. You looked down at your mother's bracelet and shrugged.
"Funny she never mentioned you." You said as you took a drink.
"Who are you?" He asked.
"Me? I'm that woman's daughter." You answered. "Any reason you didn't want her here?"
"She didn't tell you?" He asked.
"No, she didn't but she never was fond of vampires." You informed him. "I'm starting to think that you might have been the reason."
"So you don't know what your mother was? She never told you?" Marcel asked.
"Lay it on me." You mumbled as you drunk the last of your drink.
"Your mother was a witch." He answered.
"You say that like she's dead." You said.
"Well when she left New Orleans she lost her power, the magic they practice here can only be practised here." He answered. "So you want to tell me your name now?"
"No, not really." You answered.

For the next few months, Marcel spent his time slowly getting information from you about everything that you knew and even giving you some context on your mother's story. The real trouble came when Marcel was kicked off of this throne, and Klaus took it, now Klaus remembered you very well you were the human that made his life in Mystic Falls quite hellish and not because you got in his way but because you knew more than you ever said. You became quite close to Marcel and there was an unspoken thing between the two of you and that all seemed to come to light when Klaus called you for a favour. "Now what could you Mikaelsons possibly need with m- Stefan? What are you doing here?" You asked as you entered the courtyard.
"Needed the help of a strong witch." He answered.
"Mmm is that so?" You asked.
"What are you doing here?" He asked.
"Klaus called me." You answered. "He wants some kind of information I would assume." You answered.
"Correct now love do you think you can tell me anything about the Strix?" He asked.
"They're looking to break the sire bond and find the white oak bullets maybe not in that order." You answered with a shrug.
"Looks like we have work to do," Klaus said before he disappeared.
"So your friends with the Mikaelsons now?" Stefan asked.
"There's an agreement I wouldn't call it friendship." You answered honestly. "How's Elena and everyone?"
"We could be better, Elena has been put under a sleeping curse by a witch called Kai, Damon killed him but the only way that we can wake her up is by killing Bonnie." He explained.
"That must be hard." You said softly.
"Harder for Damon," Stefan answered.
"Damon? Why? She's your girlfriend." You frowned.
"Oh no not anymore." He answered, you looked at him.
"She's not?" You asked.
"No we both realised that we wanted different people." He answered.
"Really?" You asked.
"Really." He confirmed.
"Well that's nice but I have to see if there's anything else that I can get for them before I call it a day so..." You disappeared the way that you had come.

Marcel hadn't expected to see you that evening but there you were pacing "Stefan is here." You said.
"That kid you told me about?" He asked.
"Yeah but he basically told me that he broke with his girlfriend for me." You explained.
"So what you're just going to drop everything for him?" Marcel asked.
"I never said that this just changes a lot of things, it's just that I could have a completely different destination in life." You answered.
"What about what we had?" Marcel asked.
"Why do you think I'm here. I know what we had was special too what I need is time." You said as you backed away from him heading out of the building.

Time... Time to pack... Time to leave and hope that you never had to make that decision or one like it ever again.
