Prologue

It had been a long day, and all I wanted to do was have nice relaxing bath and then go to bed. School had sucked, no pun intended considering who my friends are, were I mean, and Matt had asked me to help him out at the grill, which was so not how I wanted to spend my Friday night, but I needed the money to put towards college, the house would be empty when I got back, but I didn't mind that. Jeremy was still in Denver, and Alaric had gone to visit his family since he hadn't seen them for two years, and he wanted to introduce them to his new fiancé, yes he and Meredith made it official a couple of weeks ago and so they'd been away for two weeks. As I parked my car on the drive, I frowned, the front door was wide open but there were no lights on. I grabbed my phone and called Damon, no answer, then Stefan, no answer.

I rang everyone in my contacts, but no one answered, I supposed I couldn't be too surprised, since they found out that I had gone ahead with Esther's plans, not willingly I must add, but Bonnie, for whatever reason was holding a grudge against me, and had told everyone I'd been happy to oblige. I understood that the Originals wouldn't trust me, but Damon, Stefan and Caroline, that hurt a lot.

Once I entered my house, I was subjected to the most brutal attack, and afterwards I screamed for what seemed like hours but no one came, I could barely move because of the agony I was in and was feeling light headed from the loss of blood. Light filled the room as the sun came up and I tried to think of a way to get help.
