Well this isn't my first rodeo, but it is my first of this pairing. Now the first bit is a bit fast, because I wanted to get to my favorite part, when the Originals come in. So please do leave reviews, I would love to read thoughts.

I DO NOT OWN THE VAMPIRE DIARIES. I ONLY OWN NARA AND HER STORY.

-K.R.


Nara sighed deeply as she laid back after she turned off her television. She had just finished watching True Blood for the fifth time since it had finished airing. She looked to the side and smiled at her fluffy that she had named Damon, seeing as it had ice blue eyes, and his fur was jet black.

"You know I wish that I could be in that kind of world. Maybe not that one specifically. More like The Vampire Diaries, seeing as they can get something to keep them from you know burning up in the sun and all." She said to him. Then he just meowed at her, and jumped onto her bed before curling up next to her. "Yeah, I know you don't care but I feel like I was made for something else something more."

She got up and started to get ready to go to bed she had to go to work in the morning and it was actually starting to get really late. She grabbed her clothes and went into the bathroom to get her shower. After she turned it on she smiled as she warm water touched her skin. She loved a warm shower as much a the next girl however what happened next would terrify and horrify anyone. She slipped in the shower, naked as the day that she was born. Then everything went black, and silent.


Nara groaned and rolled over. Her eyes flashed open and she looked around. Hadn't she fallen in the shower, and if so then why exact was her face deep in a very soft pillow. She sat up and looked around. She wasn't in her room, then she got out of bed and looked out her window, before quickly shutting the curtains again. She looked around the room closer and searched for something to verify where she was. After a couple of moments she did. And if it hadn't been something that she had wished for she probably would have passed out from the shock. She was in Mystic Falls. She looked around the room again, moving in a way that felt normal to her and noticed that everything passed by quickly. Her brow furrowed and then she finally felt a weight on her neck then looked down. She was wearing a necklace with a lapis lazuli stone. She quickly took it off to get a better look at it then slowly walked back to the window. She put the necklace down on a dresser that sat next to it and slowly opened the curtain with one hand and then put her hand into the sun rays as she did. With a hiss she pulled her hand back and ended up on the other side of the room. Nara stared at her hand as it healed.

"I'm a freaking vampire." She said to herself. She shook her head and then spent the rest of her day in the room looking threw everything. She found journals, well actually she found hundreds of journals and she read threw them all. She had learned a lot in the hours she had spent in that room. She was definitely a vampire and one of considerable age at that. The more she read the more that seemed to be unlocked in her mind. She started to remember things that had happened to this person, at least this version of her. "At least I don't have to lie about any kind of memories. Thank whatever happened for that."

Nara couldn't find it in herself, to go to sleep, so instead she pulled on some dark wash jeans, stilettos a corset top and leather jacket before grabbing her daylight necklace, which she had learned that she had got after she had been a vampire for twenty years, then helped a witch who gave it to her, to repay her. She walked out of the room and then headed down the stairs until she realized it was all hers. It was basically a mansion compared to the place she had before, actually it was a mansion. She shook her head at herself and chuckled that was what she would do if she had loads of money, that had generated over centuries. With that she headed into town, her heels clicking behind her as she walked. She could feel the power of her age running through her it was almost felt like buzzing. It was weird to feel strong, to feel capable of fighting off a hundred men. She smirked at her own thoughts.

"Now who do we have here?" She heard behind her. She turned to find Damon, he was more handsome in person than he was through a tv.

"A woman walking. I'm sure that your eyes are working properly." She said raising an eyebrow. She felt she could be snarky, she had the strength, the power, the knowledge and he knew nothing of what was to come his way.

"Oh, she bites."

"You have no idea." She crossed her arms and smirked. "What is a guy like you doing out so late? Don't you have school in the morning?"

"Very fiesty." He smirked back. "Where were you last time I was here?"

"Britain. I mean it's where I'm from, so there you go."

"What no sexy accent?"

"Ehhh. I found that talking like everyone, has better benefits. Less staring."

"With eyes like those, and hair like that. Maybe you get enough stares"

"Yeah well I'm going to be off now."

She turned back around and started to walk away from him. That was until he showed up a second later in from of her. They were almost nose to nose. His icy blue eyes staring into her violet ones.

"Now why don't you tell me exactly who you are?" He asked his pupils dilating. She just chuckled at him.

"Are you trying to compel me? Dude try to do something a little less predictable."

Nara shoved passed him and this time he let her go. No doubt he was trying to figure out who the hell she was but she wasn't going to give him any answers, not anytime soon at least. She made her way to the Mystic Grill. She wanted to see if she could find anyone else to run into. She wanted to find as many of them as she could so that she could figure out where in the timeline she had landed. Seeing as Damon was roaming around in the dark it was probably still very early in the first season, which meant she wouldn't miss a thing, and she could probably actually help some people along the way.

Once she was inside, she made a b-line for the bar, and sat down. After she did she ordered a drink that she felt that she really needed. After a while she felt she had enough she paid her tab and started to leave, unfortunately for her it seemed as though Damon wasn't going to give up. Especially seeing as when she got up she bumped into him.

"You know I just can't figure out how you resisted my compulsion. Then I see you basically drink the bar, and next I see a pretty little blue stone around your neck." He said flicking her necklace which she quickly covered protectively. "What exactly are you doing in Mystic Falls?"

"I decided that I needed to secluded myself. I hate big cities too many people." She said.

"Hmm. But Mystic Falls isn't on any tourist maps."

"It doesn't matter how I found it, but I am here now. So maybe you should be careful as to who you decide to follow and threaten. I'm not someone that you really want to piss off."

"Was that a threat?"

"No it's a warning. Don't get in my way."

She pushed past him again and this time she was sure that he didn't follow her. She needed to find out exactly when she was and she needed to find out soon. Nara made her way through the dark deserted streets of Mystic Falls looking for anything that would give here a clue as to what events were taking place at the moment. Then she found a newspaper sitting on a bench. She picked it up and looked it over. The main article was about an animal attack and she recognized the two victims as the second couple that had been killed in the start of the series. She put the paper back down and continued on her way none of the major events had happened yet, other than Vicky getting attack and then Damon almost using her to expose Stefan to the entire town. Other than that nothing too bad. With that she decided to actually try to sleep and headed back to where she was staying.

When Nara woke up the next day she was expecting to be in her own bed with her cat, Damon, pawing at her to feed him. She expected that everything she had experienced had was only a dream, but the moment she opened her eyes, she found that it wasn't what was happening. She woke up in the same room that she had woken up in the other day. She took a deep breath and got out of her bed, if this wasn't a dream then she was going to get involved, not just watch from the sidelines, however she wasn't going to make herself go through high school all over again.

She got dressed and decided to go out for the day. She headed more to the high school seeing as that was where the next set of events should be taking place. It didn't take her very long to get from one side of town to the other, considering that she was walking. Once she made it to the football field she watched as the team practiced, and looked over to see Elena watching from beside the bleachers. Nara had never really been Elena's biggest fan throughout the series, but she did feel for the girl. Having lost her parents, at least the people who raised her, and then having her life destroyed further by being launched into the supernatural world. She shook her head and then started to walk away she needed to help even if it was in a small way. Perhaps once Elena found out she would offer her protection, or help her behind the shadows until she couldn't anymore. It was a hard choice for her but if she was stuck here she would have to do something.

Nara turned and walked away from the football field and thought about everything as she walked. She need the upper hand. She had a bit of one but she needed more for when Klaus came and wanted to break his curse. She needed to find a way to get Elijah's attention before Rose and Trevor even try. She started to walk with more purpose than before, she needed to get home and start creating a buzz, not about Elena, but about herself. She needed to get their attention, even if she drew Klaus' attention as well she need to distract them, something she was hoping was possible. Unfortunately the day had other plans for her as a blue convertible stopped in front of her. Then the raven haired driver smirked at her.

"Get in." He said. Before looking ahead again.

"No. I have no reason, to get into that car with you." She said before starting to make her way around the car. That was until he started rolling forward. She turned her head and glared at him.

"Get in the car. I want to talk, one raven haired hottie to a snow haired one." He said.

"I could rip your life apart. I could rip you apart, limb from limb. Do not test me."

"Okay She-ra just get in."

She growled out before regrettably getting in. She hoped that if she did this that he would finally leave her alone to her planing. Once she was in the car he took off wasting no time at all trying to get where he wanted to go, which apparently was the Boarding House seeing as they were there in only moments after she got in. Shortly after he stopped the car and Damon got out.

"Let's go. We talk inside." He said almost as if she were stupid.

"Listen I really hate being here so why don't you just get to the point." She said getting out of the car after him.

"Inside." He ordered.

"You know damn well I can't go in there." She said then thought of a bombshell for him. "I'm sure Zach wouldn't enjoy another vampire in the Boarding house."

He turned to her slowly and glared at her.

"Fine. I want to know what you are really doing here seeing as you know things an outsider wouldn't." He said. "Or anyone for that matter."

"I do not have to explain myself to you, of all people. What I am doing here is my business and my business alone." She said fiercely.

He tried to come after her but she was faster, her hand was around his throat and she was lifting him up in a split second. Her fangs descended and her eyes changed. For a change Damon actually seemed to look very freaked out.

"Do not test me." She growled, before she tossed him aside. "I am not here to hurt anyone, but if you get in my way I won't have any other choice. Please for your safety and everyone else, leave me alone."

With that she zoomed off, probably leaving him more pissed off than anything else. He needed to stop following her especially if she managed to get the attention from the originals that she was going to need. Once she got home she grabbed her laptop and started to post fake articles all over the internet, about vampires, about werewolves and about many other things. After she finished she was pretty sure that she had written over a hundred articles under ninety different names. If she didn't get something out of that then she doubted that she was going to get any kind of reaction at all. She sighed and fell back on to her bed. Now it was just time for her to wait.

And wait she did. However she did it by starting to meet the rest of the Scooby Gang. First it was Stefan, then once she gained his trust Elena who by the time they met knew about vampires. She stayed away from them as much as she could, she didn't get involved with the Vicky thing and definitely stayed away from the whole Katherine thing, sure they asked her to help but she made sure she disappeared just long enough for them to get the point that they needed to deal with it themselves. Before too long they knew about werewolves, Alaric was apart of their group and Care was a vampire. In the background though Damon hovered, never trusting her but uncharacteristically kept his mouth shut about it.

Things stayed that way until the night of the Masquerade Party. Nara had decided to go last minute, she wanted to watch over Elena even if she wasn't going to be at the actual party. She knew what Katherine was going to do. Then when it happened, she was more paniced than she thought that she would be. As she watched Elena lash about in pain, her mind flashed. Thoughts of when she had been human, when she could see the people she cared about dying in front of her. She shook her head to clear it and she continued to hold on to Elena until it was over.

"Okay, let's go love." She said to her once it was over.

Without a word from anyone else she picked Elena up and started to, at a human pace, carry her to one of the cars the few of them had brought to the party.

"I'm going to set you down for just a moment. Can you stand by yourself?" Nara asked her and after she got a nod from her. Nara put her down to open the car.

However before she did she was out, everything had gone black. It was time. Time to finally meet Elijah.
