Chapter 1

     Mystic Falls, 1864 is when I first met the Salvatore brothers. Stefan and Damon... Damon and Stefan. What attractive young men they were. I remember walking onto the Salvatore plantation, my heels sticking into the moist ground. I remember the smell of the autumn leaves falling in the late October. Virginia is a beautiful sight, with all of the falling colors. The boys were human. They were in love. In love with a monster.. Katerina Petrova. She herself was a vampire, but not a powerful one, unlike Me.
                      
                       Mystic Falls, Virginia 1864:

     I hopped out of my carriage, an older man, trying to gracefully help me out of the carriage. Ha! Graceful? Not for me.
      "Miss Mikalson! Show your grace!" The man said to me! "You are dealing with the founders." I laughed. They don't know what they are dealing with here.
       "Calm down! I'm fine." I said. The man began to sign. I always land on my feet. Always. "Beside... Mr. Salvatore's carriage is not here. And who knows where is rowdy sons are!" I said. The man took a minute. He was stunned that I, a woman, would talk to him that way. Even if he is my worker, I'm supposed to show him respect like I would my father. Too bad my father wants to kill me and my brothers. Too bad he's stuck in a tomb.
     "Right this way Miss Mikaelson." He said taking my hand. I rolled my eyes. My corset squeezing my sides. Why can't the clothing be looser fitting!? It's so annoying.
       "Stand tall boys.  Stefan! Stop slouching." I heard a woman say. She sounds... bitchy.
      "Come one Katherine..." A boy... who I'm presuming to be Stefan said. Who knows. It could be the other one... oh what was his name? Dallon? No... ugh It will come to me. I walk into the boarding house. It was quite large. I walk in to see two men and a woman. On had reddish brown hair, and nice green hazel eyes. He looked to be around sixteen years of age..l maybe seventeen. I myself am sixteen. Well... I look it. Then there was the boy with black hair. Her had the most beautiful ice blue eyes I've ever seen. Well... almost as pretty as my own. He looked to be twenty. The man walked out. I sighed.
      "And who might you be? Our father had told us that there would be a guest here.. but he didn't tell how dashing you'd be." The one with black hair said. He winked at me. A flirt he is. I chuckled.
        "Excuse my brother. I am Stefan Salvatore." He said, coming up to me. Bowing at me.
      "And I am Damon." He said. Copying his brothers motions.
      "I am Iris Mikalson." I said. The woman with the brown hair and the beautiful faces eyes widen.
       "I am Katherine Perice." She said. I snicker.
     "Katherine... come with me... I have something to tell you." She stopped. "Come... with... me..." I said slowly. She stopped and tried to fight my orders. She can't.. I am an original.
     "Okay." She said, she walked into the bathing room. I smiled at her.
       "Katerina Pertova... nice to see that my brother Niklaus hasn't killed you yet." I said to he.
       "Iris... you're not here to kill me... are you?" She asked trembling in fear, knowing that I can not be killed unless a white oak stake is placed into my heart.
       "You're so young.. Katerina, yet you have made my hybrid brother mad at you. How foolish you have been with your power. How hungry you have been. I took a blade out of my boot.
       "Please don't hurt me."
       "I myself am not niklaus.. I show remorse. But what type of compulsion do you have the young Salvatore's under?" I asked her.
        "I have no clue what you are talking about." She said to me.
       "Oh I mean... what man would fancy over you?" I asked her. She looked at me.
        "The real question is, what man would fancy over you?"
      "Even in my Eight hundred and fifty  years, my beauty is everlasting. You must admit that Kol, Niklaus, Rebeka, Finn, and Elijah are all rather dashing."
      "Well I don't know. Haven't seen then since they got staked by Niklaus." She said. I looked at her. "That must be why you're not in england."
       "Pardon me?" I asked her. She giggled... well more like a cackle.
      "You're on the run from your older brother. You abandoned him after he killed your mother. You're powerless against the all mighty hybrid."
     "You are young and naive. I myself am a hybrid."
      "Funny. I don't smell the dog."
      "I'm more powerful then Niklaus will ever be. More powerful then you... then anyone who will be. Get that through your head Katerina. I. Can. Kill. You. Without. Touching. You." I said. Her eyes went blank.
       "Witch." She said. "It impossible... how?" She asked me. I giggled.
     "Well when our mother selfishly turned us.. I was a witch. She was the original witch. But she has to give her powers to someone.. to me. I am the original witch. I am the death of you Katerina. Not Klaus. I would run."
     "I'm not scared."
      "Oh yes you are... I'm not dumb." I said to her. She was shivering in my grasp. I laughed.
       "Now... let me have at least one of the Salvatores." I say laughing.
       "What?" She asked.
       "You think I'm going to kill you now?! Oh Katerina. No no no.. why do you think I came here?!"
       "I don't know why you came here.." she said to me. I laughed.
     "I'm in love with Stefan Salvatore."
I said to her. Now the funny thing about Katherine... as she calls herself these days.. is that she happens to have Stefan Salvatore tied around her fingers. Well.. under her compulsion.. and with that I won't be able to have him. Now did I want him on the fact that he was attractive. Well yes.. but I'm taking up the role of my older sister Rebekah, falling in love with every man that's she's ever met, and if we are talking in complete honesty I've never truly loved a man.. no no, I never use that damn cursed word. But, to get Katerina to listen to me, I must play the part. It's all I know how to do. I've been playing the part for a good four hundred years. 
        "Okay." She said. I looked at her.
       "Oh and one more thing." I said to her.. "you will forget that I am a witch vampire hybrid, but you will remember to release Stefan of all compulsion... oh, and you will think we were talking about how cute the Salvatore's are." I said to her. She blinked twice..
       "Your dress is really pretty." She said to me. I smiled.
       "Do you think Stefan likes it?" I asked her. She smiled and rubbed my arm.
      "It brings out your bright blue eyes. He will love it." I smiled when she said it. She turned around and she walked out. I rolled my eyes.
