"Well, this is as far as I get to go." I hear and look up to see Elena entering the chamber and shines her flashlight on the walls with the drawings. "What is all this?" She asks before helping me stand up. "Well, as far as I can tell, it's a story. In simple, archaeological terms, it's a really, really old story." I tell her and point at the wall, "That right there, is the moon cycle." pointing at another drawing, "A man, a wolf."staring at the drawings, Elena says, "A werewolf."
Before I could say anything Damon calls out, "Yeah, it's the "Lockwood Diaries: Pictionary-Style."" I shrugged when Elena turns to me, "I don't understand. I thought the Lockwoods came here with the Original Founders in the 1860s." She asked and I hmm, "I don't know. Maybe the Lockwoods did, but according to this wall, these werewolves have been here a lot longer than that."
"How long?" Elena asks, "Long. It gets better. Show her, Liyah." Damon calls out, "Names. They're not native. They're written in Runic, a Viking script." I explained to her, "Vikings?" She asked, "This name here, I translated it and it reads Niklaus." Elena was shocked and whispered, "Klaus." I then continued with the names, "And Elijah...and Rebekah."
"These are the names of the Original Family?" Elena asked and I nodded, "Carved into a cave that's been here since way before the founding of Mystic Falls. Or even the entire New World, for that matter." I explained, "Okay, this has gotta be one of Klaus's fakes." Elena tells me, "That's what I said." Damon calls out, "That could be true, except the last name up here made us think otherwise." I told her, "What's the name?" Elena asks, "Mikael." I answer and she turned to me, "Mikael...Mikael, as in, the vampire hunter who knows how to kill Klaus?" Elena asks, "Yep. I now like to call him "Papa Original"." Damon calls out. I then grabbed my camera and turned taking pictures of the drawings.

I stood in my Timberwolves cheer uniform as we practiced our routines before homecoming. I nodded at Elena who walked in as I instructed them through the gymnastics routines. "One.. two.. three.. four." I counted as I paced back and forth.
I cut the music off as I smiled, "Alright Ladies, I'll see you tomorrow! Keep practicing." I called out and they all dispursted.

My white boots clicked as Elena and I walked into the boarding house. Music played as Rebekah walked out with a glass of champagne. "Hey! What's up?" She called out cheerfully. "You invited us over? To talk?" I asked, "All right girls, have at it!" She called out and six girls in various jewel-toned colored homecoming dresses walk in the room. "Okay, now twirl please." They twirl and show off the dresses.
"You compelled your own private runway show?" I asked annoyed, "I need a Homecoming dress. So, what do you think? Pick one." Rebekah says. "I'm not here to help you shop. I'm here to talk about why you don't want me to wake up Mikael." Elena snaps, Rebekah rushes to one of the girls, grabs her neck and vamps out. "I said "pick one", girls." She says and we share a look before saying, "The...red one."
