Chapter 1

Once again I woke up screaming. I've been doing that a lot latly. I'm not sure why, but ever since my parents and I moved to Mystic Falls I've been waking up screaming. I rolled over to look at the clock; 3:33. I crawl out of bed and walk to my window. I fluffed a pillow near it and sat looking out. Whenever I would wake up I'd look out my window. Latly I've been seeing someone outside looking up at me. Tonight I waited, if there was someone there, I would confront them. I sighed and waited to see someone. I started to faid out when I was carried to my bed. I thought it was one of my parents, so I looked up and saw a face I didn't know. I pushed myself away from him in a panic. I couldn't scream, I tried and couldn't. I pushed myself to my light and turned it on. I found, nothing, there was nothing in my room. I was shaking, crying and scared. I crawled into bed, turned my light off and hugged my pillow. Who ever or what ever was in my room would come back, sometime, I'm sure. It felt as soon as I fell back to sleep, I was up again. I grabbed my small bear and walked downstairs. I thought I heard my parents in the dinning room so I went to meet them. Not that they would have time for me. They never did, they were always working. When I walking in there wasn't anyone there, I sighed and walked outside. I sat my bear down on the swing and pushed him. It wasn't long before I was bored with that too. I grabbed my hoodie and walked outside. I looked back at the house and walked away. When I walked I saw a lot of new things. Maybe Mystic Falls wasn't that bad. I bumped into a tall man; he was thin with black hair.

"Oh? Hello little girl. Are you lost?" He looked at me and gave a little smile.

"No, I'm fine. I'm sorry sir." I said looking for my bear.

"Cute bear, does he/she have a name?" He asked bending down.

"His name is Stefan Damon Salvatore." I said taking him back from the man.

"Really?" He said as his face chanced. Another man can up and said they had to go, "Ok hold on brother, little girl what's your name?"

"I can't tell you because I don't know you."

"How will you know me if you don't tell me who you are?" He said and smiled, "Well, thank you for that!" then they were gone. I looked down at my bear and then looked up. I had a feeling it wouldn't be the last time I saw that man. He looked formiliar to me, but I could picture him. I ran home I had to find answers. I ran to the door, slid my shoes off and ran in. I sliped and fell twice trying to get to the library. I looked through all the books my parents had. I looked through everything; I tried to find the birth thing. If I could find it, I knew I wouldn't be crazy. I couldn't find it, why couldn't I find it?! My mother came into the room to see me looking through everything.

"Sweetheart? What are you doing?" She asked walking to me.

"Trying to find my birth certificit..."

"Hun, we don't have one for you." She looked down.

"What do you mean?"

"Well, see you were...given to use by a lady. She didn't tell us her name, she had to sleeping boys in her car. She told me your name and off she went. You were just a baby, I didn't know how to get ahold of her. You..."

"So you're not my mom? I have brothers? What did they look like?"

"I raised you I am your mother. You do have brothers, one had like blonde or light brown and the other had-"

"Black..." I looked at my bear.

"Yes? How did you know that?"

"I met them today...I have to go!" I ran out of the house to try and find those guys again. I couldn't believe it, I'm not an only child. I had to find them, I didn't know where I was running to but my body did. I kept running and running I didn't stop, I couldn't. I ran to a house I didn't know and ran inside. I ran into someone as soon as I entered.

"Hey! What are you doing in here?" asked the man, the brother from eariler.

"Brother, behave!" Smirked the dark haired man as he walked down the stairs, "Hello my dear. Welcome to our home."

"Damon! What did you do?"

"I did nothing Stefan, just watch..."

"Damon? Stefan? No way..."

"Damon, who is she?"

"Stefan, meet our little sister, Lilly!"

"How did you?"

"Damon, this isn't funny..." Stefan said looking at us.

"I'm not kidding, right Lilly? You came here because you wanted to know the truth."

"That's right..." I was unsure of what to say.

"Our mother gave you up long ago; you've kept that bear because our mother gave it to you. It has our names because that's how you remember us. We haven't come to fun you because we've been trying to do our thing. Now we would like to have you with us sister."

"Katherine..." I blurted out

"How do you know her?" Stefan said looking suprised.

"She found me...long ago. She changed me, into a monster!"

"Sister we are not monsters, if anything humans are the monsters!" Damon said looking at me, "They make us hide!"

"We kill them though...'brother'" I said, Damon smirked.

"I am, we are your brothers. No need to be afraid of us."

"Afraid? Of you? That's like being afraid of a baby." I said looking at him, Stefan smiled.

"Oh ya you are so a Damon!" Stefan said, I smiled and went into my bag to get a blood bag.

"What's that?" Damon said looking at me.

"Blood...?"

"What kind?" He said getting closer to me.

"Animal, I think of myself as a vegatarian..." I said smiling, for some reason I knew he wouldn't take it from me.

"Ya you're like Stefan also!" Damon groned, Stefan and I smiled at each other. I knew this wouldn't be the hardest thing I'll be doing. I knew this would be the easiest, I just had that feeling. I looked at Damon, I was trying to figure out if he was the oldest. We all look the same age.

"Brother?"

"Yes?" Both Damon and Stefan asked looking at me.

"What happened that night?"

"Well, you had been up screaming all night. Our mother didn't get any sleep, you wouldn't nap with her, or even eat. The only way you would sleep or eat was if you were with Stefan or myself. Mother learned this, yet she knew it was going to be hard. We went to the park later that day so the two of us would sleep. Mother stayed with you, when she couldn't see Stefan she called to me to watch you. I ran and sat on the bench where you were. A lady said mother wanted to leave but didn't want to leave without Stefan. She said it was ok for us to go with her. I didn't want to but she took your stroller. I jumpped down and followed her. When we got into the van I saw Stefan sitting and crying. It wasn't long before you started, I picked you up and held you sitting next to him. It wasn't long before it was dark, she gave us food. I watched as she handed us food; she went to grab you and I pulled away. I wasn't going to let her touch you. I fed you and kept an eye on Stefan. After we ate he feel asleep, so you did also. I couldn't help but sleep, when I opened my eyes you were gone. I woke Stefan up and we looked around, we couldn't find you. We were locked in a basement; we heard banging. I grabbed our brother and pulled him under a table. Katherine busted open the door, walked right to us and lead us home. We ran to our parents, but without you nothing would be the same. Mother fell into a depression, then one day, she killed herself. When we grew up we were turned and Stefan killed our father." Damon explained with a stright face. I never understood how he could be so stright faced right now. He had always been like that, I can remember everything. That day though, I was to young to know anything.

"You killed him?" I looked at Stefan.

"He had to drink or die, you were told that weren't you?" Damon said looking confused at me. I didn't understand why he would give me looks like that.

"No, I couldn't help myself I drank blood as soon as I could."

"Well we have to do something, Damon is the only one who looks like he shouldn't be in school. We are back in our home town, that means no killing humans...Damon!" Stefan said looking at him, then at me.

"He shouldn't have to; Damon why not get a job at a blood bank?"

"What do you mean?"

"If you work at a blood bank you can, 'borrow' some blood. You can have all the human blood you could ever want."

"How do you-?"

"I did it in my last town, that's what this was." I smiled.

"I knew I knew that smell!" Damon said looking at me, "Who do you think is the fastest and strongest now?"

"Well knowing you two haven't had human blood latly, me!" I said giggling, "But big brother Stefan doesn't drink human blood so he'll be the slowest and weakest."

"You know she's right Damon, so why did you ask?"

"I did it because I wanted to know if she knew why she'd be the strongest."

"I'm not stupid. Like other people I know!"

"What are we doing about school Damon?" Stefan looked at Damon. They were thinking more than school. They've been without a sister for centuries. I knew I shouldn't have come back, but I had to know. I slowly started to back away so they wouldn't notice.

"The two of you will go to school, I guess." He said angrly, "One what am I going to do all day? Two she's our sister, she looks and acts like us, how will you explain that? Three WHERE ARE YOU GOING?" He turned and looked at me.

"N-no where..."

"You're not allowed to leave us again." Stefan said before grabbing my arm, "Now to answer you Damon; you will do what you do everyday, and she's our long lost sister. School starts in the morning. We need to enroll now." He got up and grabbed my hand. Damon sighed and got up, we drove to the school. I so didn't want to do this again; but Stefan would do it with me so we'd be ok. We sighed up and got our classes in one day. Stefan and I did our best to get the same classes; lucky us we did get a lot of classes. We walked out to find Damon stairing at some girl. Stefan didn't know, or didn't care. I followed Damon's eyes, they were locked on Katherine?!
