It was the middle of the night and Zach Salvatore was asleep. This didn't last very long because suddenly there was a loud banging on the door.

"Zach, open this door!" A girl shouted. He went downstairs and opened it, only to be shocked at who was only the other side of it.

"Kady?" Zach asked looking over the girl. She looked about 16 with long brown hair and brown eyes. "You can't be here. You're dead."

"Just because I'm dead doesn't mean that I can't be here." Kady stated. "If you invite me in I can tell your story of how we got from 1991 to now."

"I don't know if I should." Zach remarked.

"Come on, Zach, I'm your sister." Kady urged.

"Alright, you may come in." Zach invited as Kady entered the house. "Now tell me how you became a vampire and where you've been all these years."

"Let me start from the beginning." Kady explained.

It was June of 1991. Kady Salvatore had just finished her sophomore year and she was making her way back from the end of year party. Neither her brother, nor her pants had known that she had gone to it. Zach had only graduated four years earlier. As she was walking, she couldn't help but notice a man started to walk next to her. Soon another one appeared.

"What are you doing out here alone?" One of the men asked.

"I'm just walking home and I would kind of like to get there." Kady explained.

A third guy appeared in front of her.

"You see we can't let you do that." One of the men said. "Girls like you shouldn't be walking all alone because guys like us do stuff to girls like you. It's a shame that we have to do it."

"Please don't." Kady begged as she began to look for a way out. She was surrounded.

The four men grabbed her and threw her to the ground. Her head hit a tree and she began to lose consciousness.

She was awoken a little while later. A strange liquid was being forced into her mouth.

"Come on. Drink." A girl with very long blonde hair told her. She looked around and noticed the girl's was sticking her wrist in her mouth and the liquid was her blood. She took a step back and accidentally swallowed. She then looked around and saw the four men all dead with neck wounds. Suddenly the pain in the back of her head vanished.

"Who are you?" Kady asked in fear.

"My name is Lexi and I just saved your life." The blonde explained. Suddenly one of the four men, obviously not as dead as she thought grabbed a gun and fired. The bullet hit Kady in the head, killing her instantly. Lexi went and snapped the guy's neck. She knew what was going to happen next. She grabbed Kady's body and ran. She already had a hotel room just outside of town and put the girl on the bed.

Hours later, Kady awoke on said bed. She had no idea where she was.

"I just had the craziest dream." She remarked as she sat up. "I dreamt that I was shot in the head."

"That wasn't a dream." Lexi explained. "You were shot in the head."

"I couldn't be alive if I were shot in the head." Kady argued. "I would at least have to be in the hospital."

"When you died, you had my blood in your system." Lexi remarked. "That explains why you're not dead right now. You are in transition."

"Transition into what?" Kady asked, thinking that this chick was crazy.

"A vampire." Lexi remarked as she placed a bag of blood on the bed in front of the brunette. "You need to drink this."

"You're insane." Kady replied as she got up. "Vampires don't exist."

Lexi sped in front of the door with her fangs bared. This caused Kady to fall back on her bottom in fear.

"Now that we established that vampires are real, you need to drink." Lexi explained.

"I don't want to be a vampire." Kady argued. "Why are we in a hotel room anyway? I want to go home."

"Well I don't particularly want you to be a vampire either, but it's better than being dead." Lexi told her. Kady looked shocked. "Yes, if you don't drink blood and complete the transition, you are going to die."

Kady grabbed the blood bag and bit into nervously. The blood started to fill her mouth and she couldn't help but realize how good it was. She downed the bag and suddenly felt a pain in her teeth and her canines elongated into a pair of fangs. Though, at the moment, she was distracted from the pain with her thirst for more blood.

"More." She growled.

"Sorry you can't have more right now." Lexi explained. "By the way, you're probably not going to be going home for a while. You're from a town that has a history with vampires and while it's clean now, you don't want to draw attention. Besides, you have to learn to control the bloodlust. Finally, the sun's about to come up. At night we will begin our lesson."

"What am I supposed to do until nighttime?" Kady asked.

"I don't know." Lexi replied. "You could take a shower, watch some Saved by the Bell, you can even watch President Bush talk about the aftermath of Desert Storm. You just can't go outside or near the window."

Kady sighed and went towards the bathroom.

"So how old are you?" She asked as she began to undress.

"I recently celebrated my 332nd birthday." The blonde remarked. "I would say that you're about 16."

"I just finished my sophomore year." The brunette explained as she finished undressing.

"Well I don't think you should expect to be a junior any time soon." Lexi remarked. "At least you won't be at the same school. I don't know where you're going to be in three months."

After a few weeks, Kady was starting to get used to being nocturnal. The two of them travelled from town to town, eventually landing in Chicago.

"This is where I've got to leave you." Lexi replied.

"Why are you leaving?" Kady asked in confusion.

"I have other places to be." Lexi explained. "We're at the airport now. You can go anywhere from here. I'd personally recommend going to Seattle or another place with a lot of rain. There you wouldn't be confined inside, except when it's sunny out. Be careful who you feed on. There are still hunters out there."

That led Kady to Seattle. She quickly decided that she didn't want to finish high school and just decided to go to college instead. She used compulsion to get into University of Washington. She took mostly night classes just to be safe, but was kind of relieved that the rain and overall cloudy skies made it much easier for her to go out during the day.

"Where did you get your ring from?" Zach asked, noticing the blue stone on her finger.

"I got it from a witch named Jonas. I was just about to say that." She explained.

"So why are you back now?" Her brother questioned.

"Well I was friends with Jonas for most of the 18 years. We were never together and I actually introduced him to his wife, who didn't make it all the way, but they did have two children. Anyway, one of his children was abducted by this Original vampire named Klaus and Jonas formed an alliance with Klaus's brother Elijah to get her back. As much as I grown to like him, I didn't want to get involved in any of that so I came back here. So is my room still uninhabited?"

"It is, but if you're going to stay here, you should really go to school." Zach stated.

"But I have a college degree." Kady pointed out.

"You technically didn't get that legally." Zach argued. "Oh and we have family staying with us right now."

"But mom and dad were the only family that we had unless you count Mom's crazy husband who killed her, but he's in prison." Kady declared.

"You'll probably meet them in the morning." Zach explained before he walked over and gave her a hug. "It's nice to see you again."

"It's nice to see you, too, Zachy." She replied before she went upstairs.

So this chapter takes place at the end of Friday Night Bites. Kady is played Zoey Deutch. Now that her backstory is out of the way, we can get into the main plot. As you can tell, she's not going to be on good terms with Damon. Please don't forget to review.
