"How do we have the same birthmark?" Hayley asks confused as she sits up from her bed.

"It's not a birthmark... I mean, it is. But it means..."

"What are you wearing?" Hayley asks looking at me weirdly as she looks at me from head to toe.

"I did not have time to change into clothes or to shower. I practically came racing here to tell you that we have the same mark. Do you know what it means?" I asked as I dig through her bag of clothes to find something wear. She and I have the complete opposite fashion style.

"It's a mark your born with...?" Hayley says still looking at me oddly. "You're so energetic this morning. You're not a morning person."

"Yes!" I snap my fingers and pointed at her. "Yes, I'm energetic this morning but this is not what we're talking about. The mark you and I both share comes from a pack that once thrive throughout Louisiana."

Hayley looks at me shocked yet curious. "What?" She asks getting up from her bed. "Wait, you're not a werewolf."

"Catch up, Hayley! I am. I don't have the time to explain how my mother cheated on my father with some guy or explain the spell my mother had done on me. This mark on mine and your shoulder comes from the Crescent wolves."

"How do you this?" She asks and I throw my head back groaning in annoyance.

"I lived in New Orleans for 35 years, remember?" I asked and she nods finally getting it. "The Crescent wolves were always so nice to me. I never really understood why because I was a vampire and they hated vampires. Now I do understand. When I found out you had the mark I went to New Orleans a couple of years ago but I barely stayed thirty minutes because I had gotten a lead on Nik."

"Is that the time you left me with that strict-ass babysitter for 5 months?"

"Russia is a big place." I answered. "Besides she wasn't strict."

"I had a curfew at 8 pm and you told her if I'm not home she'd call the cops and have me arrested. I was 17."

"Two weeks prior from when I left you crashed my third car." I pointed out and she smiles as she remembers. "Also you were with me in Russia for the summer."

"So tell me more about the Crescent wolves."

Hayley and I are in New Orleans. I told Klaus to stay in Mystic Falls to help look for a cure because I need to turn back into a vampire. It's so boring not being able to do the things I used to do. He wanted me to call him every thirty minutes but I bargained every two hours. We ended up settling on every 56 minutes except when I'm sleeping.

Hayley and I are sitting at a largely deserted bar. It's around noon. We've been in New Orleans for almost two weeks now trying to find anything on her family... our family I supposed. The bartender Jane-Anne begins talking to us, "Third time in here this week."

"We're obsessed with the gumbo, Jane-Anne." I smiled at her.

"You know, ladies in the 9th ward say my sister, Sophie, bleeds a piece of her soul into every dish." Jane-Anne says glances across the room at her sister, who is working on the other side of the restaurant.
