AN: This is my new story that isn't a SYOC and one that I can update more than the other two. Check out my other two stories which need more submissions. This will contain homosexual relationships, so if you don't like then don't read. The pairings/love triangles that will probably happen in the story, depending on the reviews and feedback you guys give me, are Stefan/Max/Klaus, Elena/Damon, Bonnie/Jeremy, Drew/Caroline/Tyler, and Levi/Rebekah/Matt. These are not the endgames just something I can go by so you guy's paring suggestions will be heard. Rating may go up. I own nothing just the Kiley family if I did there would be at least one gay character on the show. This chapter will give you guys a background on the Kiley family and set the story in motion. Sorry if this chapter seem rushed or sucked. Review, Favorite, and Follow.

More information about the Kileys and Selkies will be located on my profile.
Max finally got done packing up his stuff in his room, which took him longer then he expected, and sat on his bed while he thought about random things. First was his mother, who recently passed away, and that was the reason they were moving from Carmel, California to the small town of Mystic Falls, Virgina. It wasn't the first time their family has been to Mystic Falls. His father was part of the founding families that found Mystic Falls. He or his two older brothers never been the Mystic Falls but their father told them that it was great place to live right before telling them that there was not only witches and werewolves but also vampires living there. You expect them to be shocked or not believe their father but as Selkies, you expect other supernatural creatures.
Selkies are thought to be extinct for 500 years because of hunters and vampires but some of them went into the hiding to protect their future bloodlines. Selkies are seals that have the ability to transform into humans, vise versa, upon exiting the water. Some of them can control the transform and stay human while still in the water. Like werewolves and vampires, selkies are blessed with the abilities of strength, speed, and healing. The only problem with being a selkie is the bite of the vampire. Like bite of werewolf is deadly to a vampire, a bite of vampire is deadly to a selkie. It's like a circle: werewolves are deadly to vampires, vampires are deadly to selkies, selkies are deadly to werewolves.
Max was so into his thought that he didn't notice a knock on his door and somebody opening it. Max quickly snapped out of his trance and saw the it was his older brother, Drew. Drew is what some call a jokester and live life-like it was last day opposed to his other Levi, who is usually sarcastic and cold.
"Hey, dad said that it's almost time to go", Drew said leaning against the door frame.
"Ok, you talked to Levi yet?" Max asked him.
"I was kinda hoping you would talk to Mr. Grumpy Pants for me", Drew said referring to Levi. It wasn't like they hated each other, it just that Levi had the tendency to push people away.
"Alright", Max said getting off his bed and walked out of the door passing Drew as he went.
Drew watched as Max walked to Levi's room. According to Max, Drew is a little overprotective of his younger brothers especially Max since he knew that Max was dealing with his sexuality problems last year and he getting crap for it at school which resulted in Drew usually beating somebody up. Now that he has graduated, he couldn't protect at school like he used to. He was hoping that Levi will protect him but knowing Levi that would be unlikely. The best thing about moving for Drew is the freedom of school but knowing his dad would probably make him get a job or make him go to a nearby college. As Max went into Levi's room, Drew walked downstairs and was met by his father at the bottom of the steps.
"Are they ready?" His father, Max, asked.
"Yea, Max is getting Levi now", Drew said.
"Can you help me pack some things in the livingroom?" His father asked.
"Yea, sure", Drew said making his way into the livingroom.
As Drew was packing, he came across an old family photo. It showed him and his family including his mother with one of the few times Levi was smiling, which is very rare. No one knew why he was like that. Drew thought it was because he wasn't a normal person and that he hated being a selkie. Even though he didn't show it that often, Drew really miss the way they were before their mother passing. Mark sensed that something was wrong with his eldest son and saw that he was looking at an old photo. He already knew what was on the picture without looking at it.
"I miss her too", Mark said to Drew.
Meanwhile upstairs, Max was knocking on Levi's door when he heard a faint "come in". He walked into the room and saw Levi putting his stuff in a box.
"Dad said that it's almost time to leave", Max said to Levi.
"Yea, ok. Now leave", Levi said bluntly.
"What's your problem", Max said.
"My problem is that nobody seem to understand to meaning of leaving me alone", Levi said pushing Max out of the door.
"See you downstairs", Max said right before Levi closed the door on his face.
Levi walked back to his bed where he was finishing packing his stuff up. He didn't want to leave this town since it hold so much memories for them especially for him. Levi couldn't figure out why his dad wanted them to move from their home to start over at a town crawling with the supernatural. He didn't ask to be a selkie. He wanted to be a normal teen and have a normal life. As many people would see this as a blessing, he saw it as a curse. With the advantage of speed, strength, and an ability to heal faster with the added bonus of having to breathe underwater comes with the disadvantages like vampires, werewolves, and hunters. Levi, for some reason, always tend to focus on the bad things on life unlike his younger brother, Max. He didn't hate his brothers, he just always had a different view of things from them.
Once Levi finished with packing, he grabbed a couple of boxes, that wasn't already in the truck, and went downstairs to put them in the truck. As he was putting them in the truck, he felt a presence behind him. He quickly turned around and saw that nobody was there. He turned back around only to feel that same presence again. He quickly spun around and saw that it was his older brother, Drew. He may be the oldest but to Levi he still act like a toddler.
"I scared you, didn't I?" Drew asked with a smirk on his face.
"No", Levi said bluntly. He had the admit that he was a little startled but he wasn't scared.
"You're lying", Drew said to him.
"No, I'm not", Levi said back to him.
Before Drew could retaliate, their father with Max on his tail walked out of the house and headed to the truck. They took that as a sign that it was time to go. With Drew in the passenger seat and Max with Levi in the back seats, Levi could tell that this was going to be a long ride. He didn't know why they couldn't just take a plane to Virgina but their father wanted them to have a family bonding moment and a cross-country trip would count as one.
After two long days, they finally made it to their house in Mystic Falls. It was a lot bigger than their old house and had a lot more stuff to it. According to their father, the house had 4 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, and 4 partial bathrooms. It also had about 2 ponds, one with a mini waterfall, out back. They also had an indoor pool. Max thought all of this bodies of water are a little too much even for a selkie. They even had a sauna and exercise room like anyone in this house was going to exercise. Max still couldn't believe that their house has an elevator, what kind of house have an elevator, Max thought to himself. Their father told them to go find their rooms and meet them in the livingroom so he could show them something. Their rooms weren't hard to find probably because the door had their first initial on it. Max found his room and stared in awe. He put his bag in his bed and started to put some of the clothes in the closet and drawers. He looked around the room and saw that he had bathroom in his room. He wondered how his dad could afford all of this. He felt a vibrate in his front pants pocket and he pulled out his phone, a black iPhone 5s. He saw that he had a text from Levi. He opened the text and started to read it to himself.
Levi: Dad said to come downstairs
Max: I'll be right down
Levi: NOW
Max rolled his eyes at his brother's last text trying to act tough. He used his heightened speed and sped downstairs in a half of a second. He saw that his father, Drew, and Levi was waiting for him.
"Follow me", his dad said and he began to walk out back. The three blonde brothers began to follow him as their father led them into the woods. Max began to wonder where his father was taking them. He led them deep into the woods but not too far from the house and stop when saw a flight of stairs that led downwards.
"Down here", he said motioning them to follow him down there. They were a bit hesitant and first but eventually went down there. The stairs led to underground lake and where Max felt a great surge of power.
"What is this place?" Drew asked.
"This is the Kiley's lake. A place where a Kiley selkie is most powerful. A place where any illness can be cured at", his dad said. Max looked around and saw not only vervain but wolfsbane on the far right wall.
"A vampire can not enter unless you invite them in and I recommend you not to do that", his dad said.
"Does every selkie family have one?" Levi asked.
"Yes", his father said answering his question.
"Why didn't we have one in California?" Max asked. Drew and Levi also wondered that. They stared at their father waiting for an answer.
"Because a family only get one", their dad said.
"Let's go back. You guys can comeback when you want", their father said leading them out of the cavern and back to the house. Once they got back to the house, they all went into their rooms and got ready to end the day. Levi and Max start school tomorrow at Mystic Falls Highschool while Drew first day as a waiter at the Mystic Grill is also tomorrow. Their father start his teaching job at Whitmore College as the Mythology professor.
As Max got out of the shower and put his night-clothes on, which usually consist of no shirt and pair of gym shorts, he felt someone looking into his window. He turned around and saw nobody there. He figured that it was Drew pulling one of pranks trying to scare him like he always does. Max got into his bed and began to think about tomorrow as he fell he asleep. This was he chance at a fresh start and be someone new at school not the socially awkward gay kid with no friends like he was at his old school. Maybe he would even find him a boyfriend but he put the thought out his mind because he knew that was never going to happen.
