The Other Mikaelson

After Klaus finally removed the dagger from my chest I had a lot of catching up to do. For starters Kol and Finn where gone for good. But even I couldn't focus on that. Only one thing was on my mind...Damon. I hadn't seen him in forever. The last time I saw him I was in New Orleans with Klaus and Rebekah, while Rebekah flirted with Stefan, Damon's brother.

Anyway I raced back to the one place I knew he would be, Mystic Falls. He always found his way back there, all of us did. But when I got to the door of the Salvatore boarding house I knocked only to find Katherine at the door. "Katherine!!!!! What the hell are you doing here, you were in the church fire... You died!" She looked at me for a minute before replying "I'm Elena....who are you?" I just decided to completely ignore her before asking "Are Stefan and Damon home? Tell Them it's Tay." The Katherine look alike or Elena closed the door and I used my vamp hearing to hear her tell Stefan and Damon the message. Just in time to take in Damon's body as he pulled me into a tight hug and kissing me, picking up from where we left off. And all of a sudden those 100 years or so seemed to disappear.

Only to be interrupted once again by the Katherine look alike, God she was getting on my nerves. "Who's that?" I ask getting annoyed with her. The Katherine look alike just rolled her eyes. Stefan was the one who answered, " This is Elena Gilbert, she's Katherine's doppelgänger.... that's why she looks like her. But she's also Damon's girlfriend and living with us." Oh..... I guess that explains why she's still here. Then Elena finally spoke "Wait who is this?" This time it was Damons turn to explain, "This is Taylor Mikaelson" "As in Klaus Mikaelson's sister!" Elena was starting to freak out but then again I get that a lot having a brother like Klaus. So after the little introductions and getting to know each other, I found all about her perfect little world and never ending funeral of a life. Partly thanks to my dear brother Klaus. Elena left muttering something about checking up on her brother, leaving me alone for the first time in forever with the Salvatore brothers.

Damon was the one to break the awkward silence, "So it's been a long time, how are you Tay?" "Well over 100 years or so daggered and in a box can cause you to miss out on a lot, but what about you guys? What tragic events has the eternal stud and the ripper gotten into?.....Still on the bunny diet Stef?" Stefan was looking annoyed but i knew he didn't mind, "Hilarious" he replied.  Damon smirked, "he's still grooming the hero hair" We high fived.....Damon and I had a tradition of making fun of Stefan. Stefan use to always joke and say thats what made us perfect together, our wicked sense of humor. Just as our conversation was beginning and getting good, my phone rang. it was Klaus. "Esther is back and Hayleys having the baby... get to New Orleans now!" Then the line went dead. Hayley was was the werewolf Klaus knocked up and now Elijiah is in love with her, and don't forget Klaus drove Rebekah out of town, talk about missing out on family drama. "Hate to cut this short but family calls i'll see you guys later." I said as I headed toward New Orleans.

When I finally got to New Orleans there was blood everywhere and the baby was nowhere to be found. I walked around looking for my brothers, only to find Elijah standing over Hailey's body. "Is she okay?" I ask looking into his sad eyes. "She's going to be fine.....just a hybrid. She died with vampire blood in her system." I couldn't tell if he was happy or sad about it. But the hybrid fasada, I do remember hearing all about it. The ritual and all the people dead including what's her name.....the Katherine look alike's aunt. Leave it to my brother to always cause a scene. Me and Elijah got to talking and i found out the baby did survive. It was a girl, her name is Hope.

Klaus was taking her to Rebekah after faking Hope's death. Seeing as our wonderful mother is after her. But Rebekah was gonna finally get her chance to be a mother and a chance at a portion of humanity. Just then Hailey woke up.

After Elijah hovered over ger making sure she was all right and everthing for a few hours. I finally got to talk to Hayley. Truthfully I kind of felt bad for her... She just had her baby taken away after faking it's death, being killed, and is now in the midst of becoming a vampire hybrid. All thanks to my family's never ending supply of enemies. We talked for a little while but my main priority was to get back to Mystic Falls, who knew what Elena and Damon were doing right now!

When I got back to the Salvatore home I was surprised to find Elena gone. Damon was on the couch nursing his bourbon, no surprise there. "Where did Elena go?" My curiosity seemed to have gotten the best of me. Damon just stared blankly at the fire in the fireplace, "She's at Whitmore, her friend Caroline needed her." You could hear the annoyance in his voice, he must have had other plans. "What's wrong Damon, Elena break your plans?" I guess he hinted the mocking tone in my voice because he gave me that look of his before replying, "Well ever since she became a vampire, then shut off her humanity, burnt down her house, then turned her humanity back on, she's been a wreak." "Sorry to hear that....... I have something I need to talk to you about." He must have noticed all my figiting because his face suddenly turned hard. So I continue, "I don't think Enzo ever died. I was on my way back from New Orleans and I saw him, look you probably think I'm crazy but watch your back because he's going to come after us." Just then I saw something I never thought I would see again, worry and guilt written all over his face. The last time I had seen that was the night he died.

*Flashback*

Me and Katherine had been toying with the Salvatore brothers for awhile now. And they seemed to be keeping our secret but would not stop begging for us to change them. While I took a liking to the dark haired Damon, Katherine preferred the youngest Stefan. She was always trying to win his heart but in the process got Damon to fall for her to. So when the time came I gave the tip to the town that gave them the power to kill the vampires in the church including Katherine. But instead Damon got that guilty worried look on his face for the first time ever and i knew I should be worried. Damon and his brother tried to stop the people attacking Katherine but ended up getting shot by their father because of me.

*end of flashback*

I wasn't sure what to do. Luckily Damon broke the silence, "you're not crazy Tay......I saw him too. I just thought if I ignored it and pretended it wasn't happening...... it would go away and I would forget about it." We stared at each other for a moment, "Damon I'm scared.....he probably hates us now." "Tay, I won't let anything happen to you." That was all he had to say and I instantly forgot about Elena and why I was scared. I sat down next to him and put my head on his shoulder and fell asleep.

*flashback*

Me and Damon are in the basement of Whitmore college. The Whitmore family were all vampire hunters and they were running experiments with us. We were each assigned a number and then kept in a cell getting just enough blood to survive. Me and Damon were in cells next to each other and Enzo was next to Damon. We became good friends seeing as there was no one else to talk to. But One day we came up with a plan to get out. Enzo gave Damon his share of blood everyday for a year and when the yearly party rolled around Damon killed everyone there. But then the fire started and Damon got me out but we weren't able to save Enzo. Enzo called for us but we couldn't get to him. We both shut off our humanity and assumed he died. I could never get over the guilt.

*end of flashback*

I woke up the next morning to hear Damon and Elena arguing. She must have come in and seen me and Damon together while I was still sleeping. God, I wish they would just break up already. I mean seriously does Damon not remember all the good times we have had. Not that he ever had any with Elena, she seems like a real party pooper. This thought brought me back to when Damon first became a vampire. All his emotions were hightened and all the feelings he had greater, love felt stronger and the love he felt for Katherine seemed to disapeer when he saw me. Apparently a small part of him had in fact loved me. He just hadn't realized it yet. And the vampirism heightened it. I was in fact meant to be his great love.

Once he had completed the transition we traveled and left a trail of bodies behind us. Of course we were being reckless but it was just so much more fun that way. Whenever things got hard for me I would always think back to that time when life was so simple just me and Damon. No complications. No rules. Until my ass of a brother Niklaus had to co.e and ruin the fun, but that's a story for another time.

After reliving those moments in my head, I opened my eyes and got off the couch. I couldn't lay on the couch forever. "Good morning sleeping beauty," Damon said with a smirk. Elena pouting in the corner rolled her eyes.
