IMPORTANT BASIC INFORMATION: The prologue takes place about a thousand years back in 900AD where the originals were just a normal human family (apart from Mikael abusing Klaus, and Ester being a witch, and Klaus having the werewolf gene so not exactly human but I assuming you get what I mean). Caroline in 900AD is 1,632 years old. She and her family are superiors. They are the first and oldest vampires, werewolves, and witches to walk the earth. They are so old that barley no one knows they exist, and if they do they do not speak of it unless they have a death wish. More information about Caroline and her family will be revealed throughout the story.

PROLOGUE
900 AD Mystic Falls
"Father why must we go home now"
"Because Caroline your mother will be furious if we're late for supper again"
"Ugh why must she insist? I'll rather stay and hunt" Caroline whined to her father she was 1,632 years old superior, and her mother still insisted on being on time for supper.
"Sweetheart you do realize hunting is strictly a man's jobs"
"But that has never stopped you from letting me join" Caroline caught up to her father who was walking too fast for her taste
"Because my daughter you are very stubborn, and I doubt I would be able to stop you even if I nailed you down in your room"
"Be still. Deep breath. Hold...NOW!" Elijah whispers in Klaus's ear
Elijah and Klaus were in the forest, and Elijah was helping Klaus learn how to shoot a bow and arrow. Klaus takes his aim at the deer, shoots the arrow, but misses.
"Your aim is improving" Elijah pats Klaus on the shoulder with a smile "Next time!"
Mikael suddenly comes towards them "You encourage him, Elijah, but he grows more pathetic every day"
"I'm not pathetic" Klaus looks at his father
"Do not talk back to me. You're not man enough to hold this weapon. If you can't hunt, you're nothing but a burden"
"I'm sorry" Klaus found he was always apologizing to his father
Mikael grabs Klaus by the front of the shirt "It's a shame we can't feed on sad-eyed apologies. It's your one and only skill" He backhands Klaus across the face
"Father, stop" Elijah begged he hated when his father would beat Klaus for no appropriate reason
"Stay back, or you'll be next. The boy needs to be made strong" Mikael kicks Klaus in the back as he's sprawled on the ground
"We are almost there" Caroline's father said
"Wait father do you hear that" she starts looking around bow and arrow in hand ready to shoot
"It might just be an animal"
"I want to shoot it" Caroline spots the deer, and raises her arrow, holds her breathe and let's go. The deer instantly drops dead with an arrow through its brain "Yay I got it!" she squeals jumping up and down
Her father chuckles "Yes I can see that, you have flawless aim"
"I've only learned from the best" Caroline's Father has been teaching her to hunt since she first joined him, and he was the best hunter in their land probably because he was over 1,000 years old, but to everyone else outside their family he was a normal human hunter. Suddenly she heard a branch break and quickly turned around.
"Sweetheart relax its just people" her father whispered low enough just for her to hear. It was a man with a bow and arrow.
"Oh my apologies didn't mean to disturb you" The man spoke
"Oh please not at all we were just heading home" Father spoke
"I see you have quite the aim" The man said referring to the deer with an arrow through its head. "I'm Mikael, Mikael Mikaelson"
"Alexander Forbes" they shook hands "and actually my daughter is quite the hunter" Caroline was shocked she fully expected her father to take the credit for the catch because woman were not supposed to hunt.
"Your daughter?" Mikael asked confused "but she is a women"
"Despite what gender she is my daughter is extremely stubborn" Alexander chuckles
She laughs with her dad, and Mikael; then notices two little boys behind Mikael and oh how Caroline Forbes loved kids.
"Are these your children?" the younger one had dirty blonde hair, and the other one had dark brown hair assuming they were brothers. The older one had a small similarity to Mikael, but the younger one didn't look like him at all, maybe he looked like his mother. I wanted to pinch their cheeks so bad it was taking all my registrants to stay in one spot.
"Yes they are" Mikael said giving his children a look
"Be careful my daughter has an obsession with children" Alexander chuckled at Caroline's child behavior
"Oh can I please have them" Caroline gave Mikael her best puppy face, but her father answered
"Caroline I don't think you can just take a man's children" Alexander said
"Well while you men discuss…..whatever men discuss I will be more than happy to look over them for you in the meantime" Caroline asked Mikael
"I actually do have a proposition for you" Mikael turned saying to Alexander
"Okay then lets discuss shall we" Alexander agreed
Mikael and Caroline's father walked off deeper into the woods, but not before Mikael could tell the two boys to behave in a stern tone.
"So..." Caroline faced the two boys with a huge smile she always wore "My name is Caroline. What yours?"
"Elijah" the older one said Caroline looked to the blonde boy but he said nothing
"And you do you have a name?" Caroline bent down to his level and noticed a bruise on his face "What happened to you face?" she was truly concerned she hated to see little kids hurt. Kids to her were like little innocent angels from haven.
"I-I fell" he told the lie Mikael instructed him to do so, if anyone asked about his bruises "and my name is Niklaus, but you can call me Klaus"
"Oh I'm so sorry" they both looked so sad to her, and she suddenly had an idea "Hey! If you both don't smile right now I will tickle you, and I'm warning you I'm quite the tickler" they both said nothing, and next thing Caroline attacked them. Laughter crowded the forest.
"Sto- Stop-it!" Elijah and Klaus begged as Caroline attacked their sides
"Catch me if you can" Klaus got up and ran in the opposite direction
"Want to help me catch him?" Caroline asked Elijah whose face was red as an apple from laughing so hard. Caroline and Elijah ran after Klaus.
"Klaus we are going to catch you no matter how fast you run!" Caroline shouted as Elijah called him names. Caroline spotted Klaus and she ran faster and lifted him up off the ground and twirled him around.
"Fine you caught me!" Klaus giggled she stopped twirling him, but held him on her side
"That bruise looks like it hurts" Caroline grazes her finger tips against his cheeks Klaus flinches a little knowing that Mikael struck him hard.
"Caroline!" Caroline removes her hand when she suddenly hears her father. She turns around and sees her father and Mikael approaching
"I trust they behaved?" Mikael asked Caroline
"Oh your children are gifts from above" she says looking at Klaus who was still on her hip, but who suddenly got quiet
"I like to invite you both and the rest of your family for dinner tomorrow" Mikael said
"We will be more than delighted" Alexander shook Mikael's hands
"Perfect" Mikael said "Now Elijah and Niklaus we must go"
Caroline gave Klaus a quick peck on his bruise cheek and set him down next to Elijah giving them both a hug.
"Bye Mr. Mikaelson it was nice meeting you and your children" Mikael nodded and walked off with his kids
"Oh your mother is going to be upset, we let time get ahead of us" Alexander turned to Caroline
"Not unless we hurry" she said giving her father a smirk, and flashed towards her home with her father following behind.
"You're late" Elizabeth Caroline's mom said with her hands on her hips standing in the living room of their house. Their house was pretty big. They lived for a very long time so they had a lot of wealth.
"Love" Caroline's father said and kissed Elizabeth on the lips, and her all anger vanished instantly. Despite them being over a thousand years old they loved each other like they just met the other day.
"Just because you kissed me that doesn't mean I'm not still upset" Elizabeth said pointing a finger at his chest
"Well then love how can I acquaint myself?" Alexander said in a husky voice
"Well you're going to have to be punished later"
"Um ew" Caroline interrupted their moment "Get a bedroom" she gave them a disgusted face with a joking smirk. She loved her parents they loved each other, and she knew they would die for each other with no hesitation even though they were truly immortal superior beings. Caroline wished one day she would be able to find a man and have a relationship like her parents.
"Shush Missy" her mother said laughing giving her a hug "you're late too and how do you think you came into this world hmm?"
"Oh but mother we met this man named Mikael in the forest, and he had two adorable little boys and he invited us to dinner tomorrow!" Caroline started rambling
"What's with all the rambling" Jason, Caroline's older brother asked he was only three years older than her he came into the living room nudging Caroline on the arm like always. He was very overprotective of her. It was nearly impossible to date any guy without him compelling them or threatening to rip their heads off. He still would "allow" her to date, but one wrong move the guy did let's just say he was never seen again.
"We got invited to dinner!" Caroline squealed giving her brother a hug she loved her brother to death
"By who?" he asked their father
"The Mikaelson's" Alexander responded
NEXT DAY
"Oh father lets hurry I don't want to be late" Caroline was eager to see the little boys again and meet the rest of Mikael's family
"Oh hush Care" Jason said using his nickname for her "we are part vampire, we can just flash there, and if we're late we'll just compel them"
"We are not compelling any-" Elizabeth yelled from the bedroom, but for some reason couldn't finish her sentence
Caroline got frustrated and marched to her parents' bedroom.
"Seriously!" Caroline found her parents in an intimate act. Her father was standing behind her mother kissing her neck and running his hands all over her hips, not that she minded her parents being in love, but they have been together for a thousand years. "We have a dinner to go to!"
"Stop cock-blocking our father!" Jason yelled from the living room Caroline could feel the smirk on his face from where she was standing
"They have been together for decades how much cock-blocking can I possibly do!"Caroline yelled back waving her hands frantically in the air turning to her brother
"Language!" Caroline's father shouted to the both of them "And Caroline is right we do not want to be late" and with that they all flashed towards the Mikaelson home
Mikaelson Home
"Ah I see you've made it" Mikael greeted Alexander with a hand shake "Is this your wife?"
"Yes" he said place his arm around Elizabeth.
"She is a beauty" Mikael kissed Elizabeth's hand in a friendly manner
"Thank you" Elizabeth blushed
Jason introduced himself and Mikael said he had a suspicion Alexander was the man who had two kids.
"Well let's not just stand here come" He led them into the hut and Caroline gasped at the amount of preparation they did. There was a huge piece of meat in the middle of the table surrounded with glasses of wine and fruits and many other.
"This is my wife Ester" A lady that look around the same age has Elizabeth came into the hut with five kids two of them were Klaus and Elijah.
"I'm Rebekah" a little voice said it was little girl she had blonde hair and was as cute as a button
"My name is Caroline"
"I'm Finn" the oldest one said
"I'm Kol" the youngest boy said
"Well let's eat!" Mikael sat at one end of the table with Ester on his right, Finn on his left, Elijah next to Finn, Klaus next to Elijah, Caroline next to Klaus, Elizabeth next to Caroline, Alexander at the end, Jason across from Elizabeth, Kol next to Jason, and Rebekah in between Kol and Ester.
Alexander, Jason and Mikael began talk about god knows what. Elizabeth and Ester chatted among themselves. Finn and Elijah talked about girls, and poorly covered it up, Klaus remained quiet which he seem to do around Mikael a lot.
A loud giggle filled the table and everyone turned to Caroline whose hand was covering her mouth trying to silence her giggles but failed. Caroline couldn't help herself but giggle when she saw Kol and Rebekah arguing about non-sense and Rebekah stuck her tiny tongue out at Kol.
"What's so funny?" Finn asked with his eyebrows raised
"Your little sister is adorable" Caroline said to Finn and everyone turned to Rebekah whose face was red from embarrassment. Caroline took a sip of her wine and couldn't help but twist her face.
"Ms. Forbes is your wine alright?" Mikael asked
"Um yes it's perfect" Lie Caroline lie her conscious said "It just went down the wrong pipe" She knew it was lie she was use to blood laced wine and this was just regular
Everyone went back to eating and dinner was finished.
"Mr. Forbes and I have business to discuss" Mikael said getting up from the end of the table "The rest of you may chat among or do whatever among yourselves"
"Father, May we please go to the woods?" Elijah asked
"You cannot go alone" Mikael said and all their faces were turned into frowns, but he didn't seem to care
"I'll go with them" Caroline volunteered and their faces lighten up
Mikael: "You don't have to do that"
Caroline: "No, its okay I insist I love children"
Mikael: "Okay go but all of you behave"
"Yes Father" they all said in unison
"Well lets go" Caroline kissed her mum n dad and left with the kids
"So how old are you guys?" They were half way into the woods
"I'm 15" Finn said
"10" Elijah said
"8" Klaus said
"7"Kol said
"5" Rebekah said holding up eight fingers
"Oh sweetie 5 is just one hand" Caroline removed three of her fingers and Rebekah's mouth made an "O" shape
"But Kol told me" Rebekah looked at Kol confused
"Kol didn't father tell you stop confusing our sister" Finn said annoyed
"Ha Ha" Kol said taunting Rebekah next thing happened before Caroline could even stop it. In seconds Rebekah pounced on top of Kol shoving his face in the dirt
"Eat dirty you big bully!" Rebekah forced dirt in his face
"Rebekah!" I yanked her off of Kol who was crying
"But he started it" tears filled Rebekah eyes "I'm sorry Ms. Caroline"
"Oh sweet heart I'm not mad at you" Caroline wrapped her hands around Rebekah who was sniffling "Now come help me with your brother Kol"
Caroline lifted Kol off the ground and dirt covered his whole entire face.
"You look like poop" Klaus said pointing a Kol's face laughing
"Hey leave him alone" Caroline smacked Klaus's arm lightly "Come on lets go down to the river"
Finn: "Our father said we're not allowed there"
"I'm sure he won't mind as long as I'm there" Finn still didn't move "I'll take the blame if he gets angry come on" When they reached the river Caroline sat Kol on her lap and washed his face completely of the dirt. They all played together until sunset, when Mikael and Alexander meet them in the forest. Out of nowhere Rebekah begged her father to let them sleep over Caroline's house and after permission from Alexander he reluctantly agreed. This continued for years they would sleep over her house and Caroline would wake up to Rebekah cuddled up on her left side, Klaus cuddled up next to her right side, Finn next to the headboard, Elijah laid next to foot board and Kol sprawled on her legs.
20 years later
20 years later and we still knew the Mikaelsons we had to lie quite a bit too why we didn't get older. I later found out Mikael was abusing Klaus. I wanted to tear Mikael's head off with my fangs so bad. Late at night I would always find Klaus at my door step with bruises and blood. Every night his father would beat him he would come and spend the night with me. I spend half of the night mending his bruises and cuts. When Mikael caught Klaus with his blade he beat him nearly half to death he had to get Rebekah and Elijah to bring him to me. I was waiting for the beatings to stop, but they never did. Mikael hated that his kids were spending so much time with me he said "I was showing too much love" and "were treating them like delicate beings" "that they needed to be made stronger" but I knew he was just full of hatred and evil.
Finn, Elijah, Kol, Rebekah and I were all in the forest playing when we heard Klaus yelling.
"MOTHER!" Klaus was carrying a body
"Is that Nik? Something's wrong" tears fell down Rebekah eyes "Henrik"
"MOTHER!"
"What happened?" Ester said running by Henrik's dead body tears rushing down her face
"I'm so sorry" I wrapped my arms across Klaus's shoulder who just kept saying he was sorry
"Anna please the spirts they must help bring him back" Ester begged the witch
"They can't I'm sorry Ester your boy is gone" Anna said and walked away
"NOOO!" Rebekah kept screaming along with her mother "NOOO!"
Since that day everything changed. Mikael didn't want to run anymore he wanted to be superior among the wolves they bit hard so he had to bite harder. They were fast so he had to be faster. I left them to mourn their dead that night and that was my biggest regret. I was in my room when I felt like something wasn't right something strong was happening. Being part witch sometimes allowed me to feel magic and it felt so strong. I got up and ran towards the forest and hid behind a tree. There was fire everywhere Klaus, Rebekah, Elijah, Finn, Kol, Mikael and Ester were in the middle of it.
"Lamina idoneus spiritus sanguine sacrificii viventes ac mortuos vivis mortuos vis vi et vis vi celeritatis immortalitatem" Ester chanted these words over and over and I finally realized what she was doing
"Lamina idoneus spiritus sanguine sacrificii viventes ac mortuos vivis mortuos vis vi et vis vi celeritatis immortalitatem" Mikael stood behind Ester as she chanted
"AGHHH" Their screams filled the forest and that's when Mikael knew the vampire spell was working Klaus, Rebekah, Elijah, Finn, and Kol, were sprawled on the floor in pain
"It's working" Ester turned to Mikael, but he didn't look happy
"Make them forget" Mikael suddenly said
"What?" Ester was confused about what he was talking about
"Make them forget her"
"What are you talking about?"
"Caroline make them forget her" He looked Ester in the eyes "Make them forget every happy moment they ever had with her and will have with her"
"Why?"
"I WILL NOT REPEAT MYSELF!" Mikael yelled grabbing hold of Ester "Do as you're told do you understand me!?"
"Y-Yes" tears rushing down Esters face as she casts the memory spell on them leaving only her and Mikael with the memory of the Forbes family.
Authors note: I know some things may be confusing, but I promise thorough out the story (maybe mostly the next chapter or the first few) it will all come together. The next chapter will take place present day at Whitmore College. I did as much research I could on the 10th century(900AD-1000AD) but not everything is perfect according to the time period.
What Ester said translated from Latin to English: The blade fit the spirit of the dead to the living and the dead, blood is offered to you by virtue of the speed and power of immortality to make the living the dead and the dead the un-living
