"No! You stupid dumb bitch!" The words exploded from the mouth of a twenty year old girl.

Evangeline Thatcher had just watched season four episode twelve of one of her beloved shows, The Vampire Diaries.

Evangeline was curled up on her bed clutching her phone desperately to her chest, her long hair flowing in her face. A tear slipped down her cheek. "That stupid bitch. I hate her." She mumbled.

It didn't take a genius to know that Evangeline harboured a lot of hate towards the fictional character.

A low chuckle came from the doorway. "Watching Vampire Diaries again, Angie?" Evangeline's little sister stood leaning against the door jam.

"Shut up, Marguerite." Angie snapped.

Marguerite wrinkled her nose. "I hate that name. Please call me Maggie?" She fluttered her eyelashes.

Angie laughed. "Okay. Fine, Baby sis."

Her younger sister scowled. "Stop that."

Angie held her hands up in surrender. "Alright. Did you need something?"

"Yes. A package came for you. It is in the hall." Maggie pointed with her thumb behind her.

"A package?" Angie wrinkled her nose. "I didn't order anything." Angie put her phone aside and hopped out of her bed. She was curious now. Angie ripped open the package.

She gasped at the necklace inside. It looked similar to the necklace Bonnie had to channel her expression magic. "Cool." She clutched it in her hand.

Marguerite looked confused. "Where did that come from?" She recognized it vaguely. While she watched Vampire Diaries once upon a time, she wasn't a huge fan of the show. Not like Evangeline.

Evangeline started glowing.

Marguerite widened her blue eyes. "What is happening to you?"

Angie shrugged. "What's wrong?"

"You're glowing. Angie!" She screamed as her sister started fading in and out. Maggie had no idea what was happening to her sister and it frightened her.

Angie looked at her arms as she noticed the glowing. She looked up, panicked. "Maggie!"

Angie flickered for the last time then blinked out like static on an old TV screen.

"Angie!" Maggie said, tears streaming down her cheeks. Her sister was gone - there was no trace of how she vanished, just the necklace she had received not five minutes ago.

The necklace dropped to the ground and Maggie scrambled to pick it up. "Work. Work damn it!" The necklace stayed dormant. Maggie frantically looked at her arms. "No!" Maggie wiped tears from her eyes. "Angie." She whimpered. "Where did you go?"

Angie groaned at the head rush she got. She blinked her eyes and looked around her. "No way." She breathed. She was standing outside the Gilbert house as Kol Mikaelson knocked on the door. Angie hid in the shadows as she watched.

There was no plausible explanation - no effort of science could explain how Evangeline Thatcher had managed to find herself within the cosmos of a fictional universe.

This wasn't real, was it?

"I have considered your offer for a truce." Kol said, brushing aside the strange feeling he got. He paused for a moment, enjoying the look on the doppelganger's face. "Request denied."
