Chapter 1: Vampire, Witch and werewolf
It was nearly midnight and I was on my way home from a friend, we've had so much fun that we had forgotten about the time. To be honest I was not looking forward to get home though. Mama will probably be furious at me for breaking the curfew. I wasn't supposed to be outside after eleven especially not alone. I have always asked why, but the only answer I have gotten is: 'Because it is dangerous, you never know what is hiding in the dark.'
The house was dark when I got home; I started hoping that I might get away with this. I slowly snuck inside and was about to close the door when the lights went on.
"Young lady!" said an angry voice.
God! She really has to stop doing that. I sighed and turnedaround slowly to meet my mom.
"Hi, mom" I said playing innocent, trying to keep myself calm.
"Do not 'Hi mom' me, where have you been? The clock is half past eleven. I have been so worried..." She said.
"I know, mom and I am sorry, we lost track of time, I promise you, it will not happen again. You have my word. " I cut her off, it was either that or she would have went on and on about my irresponsibility.
"You are in big trouble." She said a bit calmer.
"I know mom and I am so sorry, it is just that..." I stopped trying to find the right words. "It's just that we have been running for so long and I have never felt like I was home until now." I said, feeling the tears come.
Her face was softened by my words and she gave me a big hug.
"Sweetie, I'm sorry, it is just that I need you to be careful." She said.
"I know mom, I know and it will not happen again."
"Promise," She looked deep in to my eyes when she asked.
"You have my word, it will not happen again."
"Good, bedtime." She said while she moved so that I could get to the stairs.
I started walking upstairs, after a few steps I turned around.
"Mama," I said while taking a few steps down. She turned around to look at me. "When will you tell me the reason for why we are running? We have been running for thirteen years... and I am turning eighteen in two months"
She stood still, thinking. "Well, I guess it is time for you to know some of it. I will only tell you the main reasons now because that is what I know for sure."
"Really?" I couldn't believe it; after thirteen years she's finally going to tell me.
"Yes, as you said, we have been running for thirteen years and you are turning eighteen soon so I guess you deserve to know." She answered while she came up to me and lead the way to my bedroom. It was a beautiful bedroom, a king sized bed in the middle with two windows on each side. The room was the perfect size and the colours were neutral.
We sat down on the bed; it was silent for a moment before she started talking.
"Well... The reason to why we are running is because of Klaus."
"But he is one of the Originals, is he not?" I asked confused. What is it that an Original wants with me?
"So you remember him?" she asked with a smile before she continued.
"Off course I do mama, you have been telling stories about them since I was little" I said smiling.
"I did not expect that you would remember after all I have not talked about them for a couple of years."
"So Klaus wants me" I said confused. "Why?"
"Well, that is the problem no one knows."
"But.., what? " Now I was very confused.
"Are you going to let me finish or do you want to wait for tomorrow?" She cut me laughing.
"I'm sorry mama, it is just... I just cannot understand what a powerful vampire would want with me." I said.
She grabbed my hand and squeezed it comfortingly "I know sweetie, and to be honest I do not understand it either" She said "But... I think it might have something to do with what you are and who you are related to."
This got me curious. "What I am?" I asked very confused. "I am a witch failure."
"Off course you are not," She said
"Off course I am mama, and do not deny it. I can barley use any magic"
"You are right about you barley being able to use magic but that is not because you are a failure"
"Then what is the reason?" I asked, I was always a little sore when it came to being a witch.
"You are something more."
"What?" I asked.
"You are a hybrid sweetie, a unique hybrid too." She said fast "I have never ever in my whole life seen anyone like you."
"I am a what?" How can I be a hybrid? It doesn't make sense.
"A hybrid..." she started saying but I cut her off. "How can I be a hybrid? And what kind of a hybrid am I?" I asked.
"You are a hybrid because I am one, I am a witch and a vampire while your father was a werewolf. And because I am a witch I managed to make it possible to get you" She said
"But... but, that makes me a vampire, a witch and a werewolf, does it not?" I said, I was still confused, very confused to be honest.
"That is right". Mama said.
With that my jaw dropped. "Sweetie, are you ok?" Mama asked.
"Yes, I just... I'm just... Trying to... process this," I said.
It was quiet for a moment, me trying to process it all and mama letting me. But there was still something that I couldn't figure out.
"Mama?" I said
"Yes sweetie." She said
"You said that me not being able to use a lot of magic is because of what I am, what does that mean?" I asked looking at her hoping she knew the answer.
"To be honest, I really do not know" She answered and my hope fell. "But, I have an assumption." I was about to say something but she held up her hand to keep me quiet so that she could continue. "And I think that the only way for you to use more of your powers is that you trigger the other sides of you." She took a deep breath before she continued. "That means that you have to become a vampire and a werewolf too. But I also think that when you do turn eighteen that you will get all of your powers and not only the magic but all of it."
"But, that means that I'll become a vampire and a werewolf too, right?" I asked. Wow, I NEVER expected the truth to be SO confusing and hard to believe.
"That is right" She answered. It was quiet for a moment and I tried to choke a but sadly mama noticed. "Tired?" She asked laughing.
"No." I lied; I couldn't help but to smile, I wasn't the best liar in the world and mama would always see through me.
"Mhm, it is late so I am going to bed and so are you." She said smiling; she kissed my cheek and left the room.
