The Twice Witch (HP x TVD Crossover)

Chapter 4

Lia turned to Kat. "So, what's your story?"

"When I was human I was sent to England by my father. Banished for having a child out of wedlock. There I met Elijah and Klaus. Two of the Original vampires, though I didn't know it at the time."

Lia hummed. "The Originals. I've heard a little about them but I never paid much attention to vampires. There are so many more dangerous creatures. I'll have to do some research."

"I stayed with them for a while but it wasn't for a long time that I found out what they were planning. They needed my blood, the doppelgängers blood, to break a curse. They were going to drain me of my blood and dispose of me like I was nothing. And so I turned myself into a vampire and ran. I've been running ever since."

"And when was this?"

"1492."

Cordelia tilted her head. She hadn't been able to stop thinking about her ghost dream since it had happened. And Katherine was awfully close to Katerina. "Over 500 years. A lot can change in that time. Like names. Did you ever have a different one? Katerina, maybe?"

"Where did you hear that?"

"In my dream."

Katherine scoffed. "Yeah, right."

"You know, people have always wanted me dead. Especially the Wiccan. When I was 5 they almost succeeded. My heart stopped, I was dead, no one quite knows how I came back to life but I did. And ever since ghosts have been able to enter my dreams, talk to me or show me things."

"And what was your dream about?" She leaned forward staring into Lia's eyes. Though she was good at not showing it, Lia knew she was afraid. 500 years of life could give you a lot of enemies.

"There was a vampire in a house and he slaughtered everyone inside. Your family, I presume."

"Who ... who was showing you this?"

"I don't know. It was strange. Normally they speak to me but there was only one word. Katerina. Since I met you so soon after I figured it had to be you."

Katherine looked away and Lia let them sit in silence for a few minutes. She knew this must be hard for Kat who tried to always act stronger than everyone else. "Do you think it could one of your siblings? I assume you had them, I saw the bodies."

"They wouldn't want anything to do with me. I got them killed."

"That was 500 years ago. From my experiences being dead can change things." Kat obviously needed time to process so Lia stood up and walked towards the door. "I'm going to call and get started on that research. Make yourself at home."

Care vamped to the carnival surveying the area. She could smell the blood even from where she was but she pushed it down.

Lia was right. She was a control freak. And she was going to use that to her advantage.

She listened, tracking Damon and following his voice. She clenched her fists when she saw him, images of what he had done coming back.

She forced the thoughts back. She was Caroline Forbes and she was not weak.

Damon glanced at her, barely paying attention. "Hey Blondie, they let you out?"

She would wipe that smug smirk off his face. "I remember." He looked at her now, confused. Before he could ask anything Care continued. "I remember how you manipulated me, you pushed me around, erased my memories, fed on me, raped me."
