Hope Mikaelson came to the Salvatore school when she was just 7 years old. She was an outcast from the start. She was a tribrid. The only person who understood her was Lilly. She was a hybrid, but not in the half vampire half werewolf. She was half...
It was the weekend of my 15th birthday. I had planned on staying in and perfecting a locator spell. I've been wanting to see if I can locate my coven. Or even a relative on my father's sides.
But Hope had different ideas.
I am a month older than Hope but she planned things like she was a 160 year old vampire. She knows how to party.
She comes to my room. She opens the door without knocking.
"Come in." I say sarcastically.
"Haha. Come on the party is about to start." She says. That's when I notice her outfit. A mascarade outfit. Fit with a bluish green knee length dress, brown lace up boot heels, and paired with golden accessories. Not her usual style. Her hair is down as normal.

"Party? What are you talking about?" I ask.
"Mystic Falls high is having a mascarade ball. And we are going." She grabs my hands and pulls me up.
"Hope I dont want to go out tonight." I say.
"Its your birthday weekend. We are going and you are going to have fun." She says again.
I sigh giving in. "Okay but I have nothing to wear."
She hands me an outfit and pushes me towards the bathroom. I get dressed

"You look amazing." She says "Now let's go. One of the vampires are going to drive us." She pulls me out of my room and we head to the woods.
We get to the end of the property and find four other people there.
Penelope Park. A witch. She is the same age as Josie and Lizzie Saltzman. Two years younger than us. But she acts older and for as long as she's been here has been able to talk and manipulate her way into anything.
Alexander Carrington. A vampire. Hes only been one for about 10 years. Hes supposed to be 27. But has the physical appearance of a 17 year old. Super cute. Hes our driver.
Than we have Carrie Ilze. A wolf. She is the same age as us. My good friend.
Hope has never been really into making friends. I was her one and only friend.
I snap out of my thought and give Carrie a hug. "Let's go shall we?" I say starting to climb our fence.
Hope laughs and begins climbing. Everyone follows. We jump the fence and I find a car waiting for us at the end of the street.
"Who's car?" Penelope asks.
"Mine." Alexander says. He jingles the keys in his hand. The car unlocks and we pile in.
I get in the front. Alexander leans over and whispers. "You look great tonight." I feel a tingle go up my spine.
We drive to Mystic Falls High. We all pile out and make sure our mask are on. No one will be able to see we don't go to school here. Hopefully atleast. As long as we dont use our powers we'll be fine.
We walk into the gym and music is blaring. An old song is playing. I think its called like it like that by CardiB. Not her best but its good.
Hope grabs me and we start dancing to the song.
"Are you glad you came?" She asks as a new song comes on.
"Beyond glad." I laugh swaying my hips to the beat.
"I have refreshments." Penelope says as she comes over with theee glasses. She hands us each one. I take a sip and make a sour face. "Its what the locals call vodka with a splash of punch."
I laugh chugging it down.

I dont remember much about the night after that. But what happened on the way home, I will never be able to forget.
Somehow I convinced Alexander to let me drive. As I was going to get my permit soon. I was driving down a long road going way to fast. I didn't see her. I remember laughing at something Hope said, turning around to see her reaction. Than I heard Alexander screaming, telling me to stop. I slam on my brakes. But it was to late. I see the woman go flying. I stop the car and just sit there.
"Is everyone alright?" I ask. Everyone nods at me. I unbuckle my seatbelt. (The only thing I did right that night.)
I run out of the car to the woman. She's not breathing.
"Alex give her your blood. Please." I scream. Begging.
He tries but she's already gone. "I'm sorry." He says laying her down son the ground.
My mind goes dark after that. I remember crying. Collapsing to the road. Hope comes to comfort me and I cry in her arms. I go blank after that.
I know what this means. I triggered the curse. And I had to kill someone to do it.
