AN: This is just another AU story that follows the storyline of "A Walk To Remember." In this, the entire series of TVD hasn't happened and by that I mean, Stefan never met Elena, he has never 'good' Stefan. He's always been a Ripper. He hasn't seen Damon in years. I'll explain more later on when needed, but really that's what you need to know going into this thing to avoid confusion.
As for the Glee-verse, this is an AU S2. I'll be tying in many of the actual events that happened in the show, borrowing some dialogue when needed, and just changing them around as necessary. In this, Quinn has never been pregnant nor has she ever gotten together with Puck. She's only ever been with Finn, but they're no longer together. She's a relatively good girl in this story, i.e. President of the Celibacy club, goes to church regularly, and all that jazz, but I'll explain more on that later.
This first chapter is really just a prologue with Stefan, based loosely on the opening scene of A Walk to Remember.
As always, read. enjoy. review!
Stefan Salvatore crosses the threshold of the crowded bar and stops to take in the scene. The place, heavy with musk, was filled with mostly just bikers and truckers looking to wet their whistle before heading back out on the road. There were a few young adults hanging around as well, presumably college kids. Or maybe just high schoolers with fake ids. Either way there was more than enough fresh blood to go around and he had it all at his disposal.
Taking a seat at the bar, he orders his usual drink and as he waits on it, allows his gaze to wander. Being on the outskirts of some sad, God forsaken town in Ohio, he didn't expect to find anyone particularly ravishing but the girl standing at the end of the bar was cute enough for his tastes. He watches her for a few seconds, patiently waiting for her to sense his staring and turn her pretty head. Eventually she does and when she catches sight of him looking at her, he feigns embarrassment and ducks his head, knowing well enough that being adorably shy was just the route to take in order to draw this girl in.
It works, of course, and as soon as the girl gets her drink, he sees her out of the corner of his eye making her way over to him. Though he smiles to himself, he waits for her to introduce herself before lifting his head. When she does, he gets to his feet and does the same. "Stefan." he offers, reaching down and taking her hand in his before bringing it to his lips, his eyes trained on hers the entire time. Her breath falters and her heart rate increases. Her cheeks start blushing furiously when she takes back her hand.
"If you don't mind my saying," He's standing so close to her that she has to tilt her head back in order to look him in the eyes. He's more than amused when he realizes that he hasn't even handed out the first compliment and already, judging by the mesmerized look in her eyes, that he had her hook, line, and sinker. It definitely paid to be a vampire. "You're breathtaking."
His hand barely grazes the side of her delicate cheek before the girl is suddenly yanked backwards by some oaf in a Cincinnati Bengals jersey. "Back off man, she's taken." he warns, stepping in between Stefan and the girl.
Stefan fights the urge to both roll his eyes and bash this guy's skull into the bar. "Look, I'm not from around here. I'm just passing through, looking for a good time. Something which," he clasps the jock's meaty shoulder and forces him to meet his gaze.
"You and all your friends back at the pool table are going to help me with." he states in a quiet but commanding tone. "Do you understand?"
The guy nods obediently, just as the girl, Hannah she had told him, behind him does. "Now you are going to steal a bottle of Jack Daniels from the bar. Don't get caught. In the meanwhile I'm going to take the rest of your party out to the parking lot. Then we'll leave together and have one killer party."
After about a ten minute drive down the road, Stefan pulls up to a seemingly abandoned cement factory. He parks his car off to the side and politely orders his new friends to get out.
"What are we doing here Stefan?" Hannah asks innocently, looking around with confusion etched across her face.
"Having fun." he replies, walking past her. "Or at least, I'll be." he murmurs out of earshot. He points to two of the guys he had brought with them. He hadn't bothered to get their names.
"You two are going to take a little swim." he informs them, gesturing over to the quarry where water was continuously being poured into. "But I want you to jump from up there." he adds, nodding toward the large scaffold on the other side of the quarry.
"You'll each wait for my signal before you jump. I don't know how deep the water is so…good luck." Surprisingly he's able to stifle a chuckle.
As the two boys make their way over to the large ladder on the side of the scaffolding, Stefan eagerly turns his attention back onto Hannah and her companion. He eyes the blonde whose name he didn't know and gamely licks his lips. "You look absolutely delicious."
He appears before her in an instant, before she even has the chance to register what he had done. "Don't be afraid." he says to her in a reassuring tone, his hands coming up to gently touch her arms.
"I'm not afraid." the girl recites in monotone like the puppet she was.
His lips quirk and he gives a curt nod. "Good. Now don't scream." He closes the gap between them and rips into the girl's throat without another thought. Though she's unable to scream, the girl squirms in his arms like a dying fish, but as the seconds pass and her blood loss increases, that quickly changes.
It isn't long before she goes completely limp in his arms. He holds her in his embrace, still feasting, his grip on her bordering bone-crushing as the intoxicating liquid fills his mouth and throat. When he's had his fill, he retracts his fangs and lets the girl's dead body fall at his feet. He doesn't bother to wipe his mouth as he stalks over to his car and plucks the bottle of Jack Daniels from the passenger seat. He takes a seat on the hood and orders Hannah to join him.
After taking a hearty swig of whiskey, he reclines back against the windshield. "This is going to be fun." he assures her before enthusiastically gesturing to the two boys up on the scaffolding. "We're waiting!"
The taller of the two nods and launches himself forward without hesitation, diving head first into the water. Even from where he sat, Stefan could hear the sound of the poor guy's body hitting the bottom with a dull thud.
"Ooh." he pretends to cringe, his gaze flickering to Hannah. "I guess the water was shallower than I thought. Whoops." He gives an careless shrug before ordering the shorter, blonder boy to take his turn.
A smirk plays on his lips as he takes another swig from the bottle. "Ouch, that had to of hurt. I give him a 7.5. His execution was sloppy." he comments, pulling a face when he catches sight of the kid's body floating around the surface face down.
"Should've compelled more people." he murmurs to himself, dismayed that the fun was over already. Well, it wasn't completely over. He still had little Hannah.
"Fun fact about me, Hannah." he passes the bottle over to her and she drinks without question. "I once massacred an entire migrant village in Mexico. Ripper of Monterrey they called me." he recalls fondly, leaning back in his seat and glancing up at the stars. "Now that was a really fun day." His brow furrows in thought. "You know I really should do something like that again."
"I don't think we have any migrant villages in Ohio." Hannah frowns, prompting Stefan to roll his eyes.
"Any schools nearby?" he asks lazily, swiping the bottle back from her and finishing off the bottle.
"The closest one is McKinley High School in Lima." she promptly tells him, hiccupping slightly from the alcohol. "It's in the next town over."
"McKinley High School." he repeats, folding his hands behind his head. "Anything tragicever happened there?"
The girl thought about it for a second before shaking her head. "No, I don't think so."
"Well I think I'm going to have to do something about that." he says decidedly, hopping off the hood and carelessly chucking the empty bottle aside. "But first…."
He stops and turns around, looking directly into Hannah's bright blue eyes. "I want you to run as fast as you can and never look back."
She did so without hesitation, taking off in the opposite direction of where they had came. Stefan watched her go and kept his arms crossed as he patiently waited. He started counting in his head, intent on giving the girl until 200 before he went after her.
About fifteen minutes after he had taken off after Hannah, Stefan returns to his car, the girl's blood soaked into his shirt like it was sweat. He left her off the side of the road in pieces, various body parts strewn across the road a mile down after having drained her dry. The look on her face as he had fed on her was one of utter terror, a look that Stefan had grown accustomed to seeing, and reveling in, on a daily basis.
First wiping his mouth with the back of his hand, he slides into his car and starts the engine. Bon Jovi's Wanted Dead or Alive comes blasting through the speakers and he turns it up even louder, violently ripping the car back onto the road.
A few miles pass before he's finally greeted by a sign that reads, Lima, Ohio Welcomes You!
