I had snuck out of bed before Damon could notice the next morning. I was thinking about what Stefan had said about me being bad for Damon and the truth is I am bad for him. Stood at the foot of my bed with my robe wrapped around me I was watching Damon sleep. He looked so peaceful sleeping. The truth was I am falling for Damon he was kind and loving to me but if he stayed with me he would have to deal with my baggage. My brothers and my sister can be ruthless when needed and me I can be just like Klaus if not worse.
….flashback….. 1696
I was walking around the outskirts of London looking for my next victim, coming across a small village I saw a young man entering the village. Maybe I could find somewhere to stay in this village compel them and have a village all to myself for feeding.
“Hello sir I was wondering if you could please help me. I am looking for somewhere to stay my parents have died im all alone. Please sir do you know anywhere for me to stay. I hate to be trouble for you” this young man was tall and very handsome he had sea blue eyes and when he took my hand in his and kissed it, his lips were soft.
“You have caught me at a good time, I am on my way home I too have no parents and now an empty house. It would be my pleasure if you come and stay at my home. What type of person would I be if I left a young maiden out on the streets all by herself?” a young maiden he was so wrong but he seemed like such a gentle person who I was to say no.
“Thank you kind sir. I am forever grateful to be staying with you”
Remembering back to old times was dangerous. His name was James. James Brooke. Staying with him was magical that was a time when I thought I was in love. 3 years I stayed in that village then on the 23rd of august 1699 he proposed to me in the village hall in front of all the village people only 67 people in the village. The day he proposed was the day the village came to an end. If I was human that would have been my happily ever after. Getting married, having children and living in the house, growing old together it would have been amazing a true human experience but me being me I flipped out I ran away from him and into the woods outside the village. Falling for a human how silly can I be. Im a vampire and original vampire and I fell for a human. Walking round the woods I could smell blood fresh. It has been days since I had fed and I needed blood now. The smell was drawing me in. it was a man his leg cut and bleeding from a hike. My instincts kicked in and I drained the life out of him in seconds. After killing the man I was still hungry for blood which drew me back into the town. I killed the first 5 people I saw in minutes not even bothering to drink from them just ripping their hearts out form there chest and why because I was angry. I was upset that I could not be human that I was a vampire so I took it out on the humans.
That night I killed the whole town by ripping their hearts out and just left them there and left. I left the village that night leaving only one person alive. James. When I came to find James he was in the house I had being staying in for 3 years, he had no clue that the rest of the village was dead, he was just drinking in the parlour when he saw me he had tears in his eyes and was very drunk. That night I took him to London and compelled him to forget me and the town. That he was all alone a traveller who came to London to live, I compelled him to find someone to marry and to have many children with to have a big home with gardens for his children to play in and to have a happy life.
Years later when I returned to London I found that James had married 2 years after I left him in London and had 5 children 2 girls and 3 boys. James had died happily of old age and left a legacy for his children.
Damon never knew of the monster that I used to be. I really was like Klaus the humans that I have killed the life’s I have ruined. Thoughts were running through my mind about leaving Damon leaving mystic falls. I could never fall in love because for me it has never ended well and I will not have it end badly for Damon. I do care for dearly but trouble follows me around like a magnet.
I decided to write Damon a letter telling him that I will forever have him in my heart but him being with me Is dangerous and I would never forgive myself if anything happened to him.
Dear Damon
Im sorry that u have had to read this, but I cannot stay here it is too dangerous for you to be anywhere near me. It is too dangerous for anyone to stay with me. I am a killer I have killer thousands of people in my time and I have loved before, love to me is not something I wish to happen but It did. I fell in love with you Damon and im sorry. Im sorry that I led you alone and I am so sorry if i ever let you have feelings for me. Do not try to follow me Damon Im no good to people I am a monster I am the original vampire that no one knows of.

Leaving the letter next to a still sleeping Damon I grabbed my stuff and left.
Returning to my apartment I looked around and saw my things all neatly in place just where I left them. Turning to look in the mirror I saw my reflection. I am a vampire. I am a killer. I am not human. Why was I acting like a human wanting to fall in love and be a family? I’m not that girl anymore and it was about time that I started to act like a vampire.
I was thirsty again and a rabbit or a blood bag was not going to be good enough this time I wanted it from the vein and I want to bleed someone dry. The more I thought about bleeding someone dry the more I seemed to be losing my humanity till it was gone and I had well and truly turned it off. Now I wanted to kill to feed to be who I used to be after I was turned.
Walking down the road I looked back to see my apartment up in flames. I did not need a home, vampires don’t really need to sleep we just need to kill and that is what I’m going to do.
