Ok so this story is mostly AU except for the fact that the Mikaelsons are still the Original Vampires. I just love the idea of a KolxElena story and this was just a thought that came into my head. The setting is during the 1600s in good old Mystic Falls, Virginia.

Just to clear up anything if you get confused:

1. Instead of Klaus and Elijiah falling in love with Tatia Petrova, I changed it so that it was a girl named Angelica Waters. That's why they will not both feel so entranced by Elena.

2. The Salvatores will not be in the story (I love them though 3)

3. I'm giving Elena alot of family.

And I think that's it but if you get confused by anything jus let me know! :)

Elena Petrova wondered aimlessly through the dark pathways of the forest, her hands clasped loosely behind her back. She loved the forest; it was more of her home than the very house she lived in. She admired the natural beauty of the endless trees and blankets of multicolored leaves. At night, the woods seemed to come alive and it excited her.

Suddenly, a twig snapped behind her. She stopped, cocking her head toward the sound curiously. She was met with silence so she chose to ignore it. She began her strolling again until her keen ears heard the crunch of leaves, this time much closer. Now alert, she turned her slender body toward the sound, her dress dragging surrounding brush. Her sharp dark eyes scanned the area with the most obsevance, her body ready to attack. Suddenly, two arms wrapped around her waist and spun her around, earning her a squeal of surprise.

"You should not be out at this hour sister", a deep voice chuckled," it is not safe for a little lady such as yourself." Elena turned around to come face to face with her the light brown eyes of her brother, Jeremy Petrova. He had a playful smile on his lips and his eyebrows raised in amusement. Elena scowled at him.

"You know perfectly damn well that I can take care of myself", Elena said angrily and swatted at her younger brother's head, which he skillfully dodged. "You also know I hate being snuck up on".

"All the more reason do just that my dear sister", Jeremy joked as his grin grew wider. Elena sighed and soon let out a small smile of her own. As much as Jeremy could get on her nerves, Elena never did have the heart to stay mad at him. "Come Elena, let's go home".

The siblings walked side by side chattering away for while until they came to their little cottage, just outside the thicket. It was a cozy little home, white wooden walls with a plain brown wooden roof. The grass was fairly green with hens pecking around. On the side of the house, cows chewed grass lazily and goats bleated their hearts out.

Yes, it was no fancy mansion, but to the Petrova family, it was home.

"Elena! Jeremy! Where in the world have you two been?" a very angry, motherly voice yelled. Elena and Jermy looked up to see their Aunt Jenna with her arms crossed her eyes narrowed anger.

"Oh, we're sorry Aunt Jenna", Jeremy apologized, with a sheepish smile on his face, "my sister and I were just out admiring the woods."

"We apologize if we worried you", Elena added.

Jenna looked at the pair then let out an tired sigh, a tiny smile formed as she picked up her skirts and walked toward them. She stopped in front of the two and held out her hands. Jeremy and Elena each took one.

"I love you children, you know that?" They nodded. " I'm sorry to fret so, but with what happened to you parents...and Erik...I just...", Jenna's voice broke off, tars pooling in her green eyes. Elena heartfelt heavy. Her and Jeremy were very much aware of what happened to their parents and Jenna's son. Murdered. By vampires. Jeremy's eyes and smille dropped a bit at the memory and Elena's eyes stung. "I just want you guys to be safe" Jenna said sadly.

"We always are Aunt Jenna", Elena reassured her, her grip on Jenna's hand tightening.

"No need to worry about us", Jeremy added.

Jenna laughed. "I know." she wiped at her eyes and looked up at the night sky. "It's a full moon tomorrow.

"We know", Jeremy declared," We're ready."

"Do not worry Aunt Jenna, we have better control of ourselves than the last time", Elena said remembering the last full moon when she and Jeremy almost escaped.

"Well we have your Uncle Duke, Aunt Daphne and your cousins, Amanda and Terrance coming to join us tomorrow. Ever since their home burned down, they have been trying to find someplace to stay before the full moon so I offered our home until they find a new residence", Jenna informed them.

Elena and Jeremy nodded in agreement. Jenna then told them to come inside and wash up, before she went off to the side of the house to tie up the livestock. The siblings walked into the house and soon got ready for bed. Elena changed out of her dirty dress and place a soft nightgown in its stead. Instead of going to her bed, Elena went to her window and looked out at the clear night sky, ilumintated by the sliver moon. She felt the animal inside her pratically purr in pleasure of the moonlight. She ran a hand through her long, chocolate hair and sighed.

She longed to run free in the woods, not being in cooped up in her room. Jenna promised her that on the next full moon, she would take her and Jeremy up to the woods and let them roam free untill dawn if they behaved themselves.

With a soft smile, Elena Petrova went to her bed and buried her head into her soft pillow.

Tomorrow, she thought, tomorrow, I'll run free.
