A/N: This is a re write of my story 'The Lost Salvatore'. I realized that I can do much better with this story and I hope I did do better than before. The story is set in the middle when Stefan and Damon have just opened the tomb and found out Katherine wasn't in there.
A little background for this story is that Devon was given a chance at a normal life without human blood when he met Carlisle in 1915. He switched to the animal diet and even though it didn't make him as strong as before he felt better about himself. Devon kept his last name since that was the last connection he had with his brothers.
Devon looks like both of his brothers. He has crystal blue eyes like Damon and light brown hair like Stefan does. He smiles like Stefan and smirks a lot like Damon does. Devon wants to feel more human like Stefan does. He hates taking another human's life at least he feels like his life or his family's life is being threatened. He was abused his whole life by his father. He was blamed for his mother's death but at times his father did actually act like he cared about Devon.
Devon is a very caring person and he tries his best to not let his past get to him. He embraces life like it will be his last day on earth. For Devon he wasn't like his adopted siblings. The 17 year old barley smiled or laughs or joins them in any kind of activities. When he did laugh or smiled or join them it was rare for him. Devon lives his life the best he can and makes sure to not give in to his blood lust.
Devon Salvatore-Cullen was enjoying his afternoon with his siblings before they left for the school day. He was laughing and smiling which was rare in the 17 year old boy. A few minutes into the conversation he started to hear someone calling his name. The voice and scent was familiar to Devon. He looks around the parking lot and sees someone in the far end of the parking lot.
Devon was shocked and angry at the same time. 'Katherine?' He questions himself. No it can't be her, she died in the fire, and I must be seeing things. Devon takes a good look at her from the distance he was at and with his good sight he knew he wasn't being fooled. It was Katherine!
"Edward, I'll meet you guys at home. I have to go talk to someone."
"Alright Dev but be careful."
Devon nods his head at his adopted brother. He grabs his bag and puts it over his shoulders. Devon walks over to Katherine and Katherine goes further into the forest. When they get to the middle of a field Devon puts his bag on the ground and stands far away from Katherine. This girl caused him nothing but pain and misery in his human life and she is the reason for him being a vampire and losing his brothers.
"You are supposed to be dead."
"Awe Devon is that a way to greet an old friend?"
"You're no friend of mine."
"Devon now there is no need to be so harsh."
Devon wanted to kill her. He could but then again he isn't a killer. He might have killed people for their blood but he changed his ways and vowed to never kill again at least he needed to protect his family.
"Why are you here Katherine? I know you are not here for a social visit."
"Right you are Devon. I'm here to tell you some news."
"What news could you possibly have to tell me?"
Katherine walks closer to Devon and Devon backs up. He didn't trust Katherine one bit. She ruined everything good in Devon's life. His brothers died trying to save Katherine and he was a vampire which Devon hated being. Devon was always going to hate Katherine it will never change.
"You do remember Stefan and Damon do you?"
Just hearing their names was making tears come to Devon's crystal blue eyes. He can't even look in the mirror because of how much he looks like his brothers. All he sees staring back at him was Stefan and Damon and it hurts him more than anyone can imagine.
"Their dead Katherine and have you forgotten it was because of you? There is no news you can give me that involves them."
"That is where you are wrong Devon. They are very much alive well dead but they are vampires just like you."
Stefan and Damon are alive, that can't be true. I saw them died. Devon looks into Katherine eyes looking for a sign of her lying but he couldn't find any lie in those brown eyes just the truth.
"Do they know that I'm alive or you didn't bother telling them?"
"You can do that on your own. How about you give them a heart attack for me so I don't have to kill them myself?"
Devon gets her hand in a death grip and shows his fangs and veins under his eyes.
"You better not touch them Katherine. You caused enough pain; you don't need to cause any more pain. Now I want you to leave and to not come back here. I will go to Mystic Falls to see my brothers and if I do see you I don't care I will kill you."
Katherine smiles evilly at him and runs off into the distance. Devon didn't know what her plan was. He didn't really care. Katherine was of his past and now he needed to focus on finding his brothers and let them know he was alive.
He grabs his bag off of the ground and runs the distance towards his house. Questions were going to be ask, Devon knew that much. All Devon did know was that he had to convince his adopted parents, Carlisle and Esme Cullen, for him to go to Mystic Falls for his brothers. To admit Devon didn't want to go to Mystic Falls since all that town had was bad memories of a past he didn't want to remember.
Mystic Falls, 1864
The year was 1864. Devon was close to the age of 17 years old. Damon was back from the war. Stefan was paying most of his attention their house guest, Katherine. Damon was no accepted to paying attention to Katherine. Stefan and Damon didn't spend time with Devon anymore or even talk to him because their always with Katherine, trying to win her love.
Devon was in his bedroom, reading a book and he starts hearing his brothers fighting again over which brother can have Katherine. Devon hears this fight almost every night now and he was sick of it. He puts his book down and opens the door of his room and goes to the stair case. He looks down and sees Stefan and Damon getting physical with each other.
Devon runs down the steps and pushes them away from each other. Of course Damon thought it was Stefan that pushed him so he tries to punch Stefan but he hits Devon, breaking his nose. Devon falls to the ground. His brothers stop fighting and Damon was horrified at what he did to his little brother.
"Devon, are you alright?"
Stefan asks him with concern in his voice. Devon might be 16 but tears were falling from his eyes. He pushes Stefan's hand away and wipes the blood from his nose. He was used to pain since all his father did to Devon was beat him every day and night. This was not anything new to him.
"Why can't you two stop your fighting? All this woman has done is caused us to hate each other but y'all do not see it! Damon hit me because of you two fighting over her! I know I'm not important to you two anymore but you did not need to break my nose. You two are not the brothers that I thought I knew."
Their father, Giuseppe, wakes up from all the noise. He might not like Damon or Devon that much but he did show worry when one of his sons were sick or hurt. When he sees his youngest son with a blooding and broken nose he tries to help Devon clean it up but Devon didn't want his help. He runs up the stairs, away from his father and brothers.
"What happened to your brother Stefan and Damon?"
Stefan was the one that spoke up first. He knew Damon will get a beating for it but their father wouldn't hit Stefan.
"We were fighting again Father. Devon tried to stop us. I thought Damon pushed me and I went to punch Damon and I punched Devon in the nose by accident. I'm sorry Father; I didn't mean to hurt him."
"Stefan Salvatore you know damn well that you do not physical fight with your brothers. Now you both go upstairs to your rooms while I tend to your younger brother."
Damon hurries out of the room with Stefan. They both go to their rooms. Devon was on his bed crying in his pillow from the pain of his broken nose and also that he felt like he didn't have brothers anymore. He hears his father come into the room and he was thankful this was one of his good days. He felt happy being taken care by his father like it was supposed to be.
"Let me see that nose of yours Devon."
Devon sits up in his bed while his father looks his nose over. He hands his son a napkin to stop the bleeding. After a few minutes he checks Devon's nose and sees that the blood has stopped. When he touches his son's nose Devon flinches away from his father.
"It is broken Devon. I have to place the bone before it gets worst."
Devon nods his head and bites his lip from the pain that was going to come. Giuseppe takes one side of his nose and the other side and moves the bone into place which causes Devon to scream. When he was done Giuseppe cleans up the mess and hugs his son which he has never done before.
"Do not worry about your brothers. Everything will work out fine between you three."
They say goodnight to each other and his father leaves the room so his son can sleep.
Those were the good days with his father. After that night he refused to speak to his brothers. He refused to be near them because to Devon Stefan and Damon weren't his brothers anymore.
A year later he was changed into a vampire and now he was living with the Cullen's, his family that he can actually call a family. Carlisle is the father he always imagines having and Esme was the mother he never had. Devon was a good kid in his human life and vampire life. He has killed a lot of humans in the past and some vampires but it didn't affect Devon's kind and caring nature.
Devon knew he had to go see his brothers but it won't be a good reunion. Devon still has a lot of hate for them both and no matter what they say or do it won't change his feelings towards them. Devon sees his house when he walks up to it. He saw his father's car which meant he got out of work early. He puts his ear phones in and blasts his music. At this moment he didn't feel like talking to anyone or seeing anyone. If anyone did talk to him he knows he wouldn't be able to keep his temper in check.
When he opens the door Carlisle and Esme try to talk to him but Devon ignores them. He goes upstairs to his room and locks the door. Devon walks over to his closet and moves his shoe boxes to get a box that was behind the shoe boxes. When he takes the box down he slides his finger over it, smiling down at it. This box was full of his memories with his brothers and other special things from his human life.
He sits on his bed and opens the box. He takes out two pictures that were very special to him. They were the last pictures of him with his older brothers. He slides his fingers over Damon and Stefan's faces. They were smiling and this was the time that they were actually brothers. Devon was 14 in this picture while Damon was 19 and Stefan was 15. They were happy and close as brothers. To admit Devon does miss them and does wishes to see them again. Now Devon gets the chance. Devon needed to go as soon as he can. He needed to talk to them and see them for himself.
After an hour of being in his room alone Devon decides to go talk to Carlisle and Esme. He was hoping they agreed to let him go. Devon has been on a tight leash with his parents since he was skipping school and was lying to them about where he was hanging out. He was off grounding but Carlisle still doesn't let him out of his sight.
Devon walks into the kitchen where his parents were talking but they stop when they see him.
"Can I speak to you guys for a moment?"
"Yes Dev you can."
Esme answers him in a loving mother voice. Devon takes a deep breath that he didn't know he was holding. He looks up to them and sees concern in their eyes.
"The reason I didn't come home with the others was because I saw someone from my past. I saw Katherine my creator."
Carlisle and Esme were more concern then before. They knew that Katherine caused nothing but trouble for Devon. They hear from Devon all the time that if he saw her again he will kill her. When they hear that come out of their caring and lovable son's mouth they knew that Katherine was marked for death in Devon's mind.
"What happened? Did she try to hurt you?"
Devon shakes his head no at them.
"She told me some news about my brothers."
"What news? Are they not dead?"
Carlisle asks in confusion. Devon shakes his head no at them again. Now they both were confused so Devon tries to explain the best that he can.
"According to Katherine my brothers are alive. A few weeks after I was changed they were changed into vampires also. They are living in Mystic Falls."
Carlisle and Esme are speechless at first. They didn't know whether to believe what Devon was saying or not. They know Devon wouldn't lie about that type of things. He does have problems with lying to them but after being grounded for two months for lying and skipping school they knew Devon wouldn't risk being grounded again.
They can see Devon was holding in his emotions. Everyone in the family knew that Devon's brothers are a bad subject for him. Devon barley speaks about them. He refuses to tell the family what happened between them before Devon was turned.
"I need to go back to Mystic Falls to see them and try to talk to them. They don't know I'm still alive and was turned."
Carlisle speaks up when his son says that to them. They knew that was going to be asked sooner or later. It makes sense that Devon wanted to see his brothers and try to reconnect with them.
"Dev you know I would not let you go on our own but your mother and I understand this is something you need to do on your own. We will allow you go as long as you keep in contact with us and come back home."
"Believe me I will be coming back home. I just need to speak with them."
"We know you do son. If you want to leave as soon as possible then you can. Just remember to listen to everything they say."
Devon nods in agreement at his father and mother. He goes upstairs and starts putting some clothes in a backpack along with his charger for his phone and a few other things. He checks his wallet and makes sure he has enough money for gas and food on the way to Mystic Falls.
About two hours later he was ready to leave. He goes downstairs and says his goodbyes to his siblings and his parents. He starts the car and was on the way to see his brothers.
