Tales of the Originals
Chapter 1: Lies my Brother Told Me
"Hide and seek? Fine by me," Kol announced, running through a clearing in the woods, looking for his sister Rebekah.
It wasn't long before he spotted a little girl, no older than the age of six, sitting on the ground with her back slumped up against a tree. Her pale, straight blonde hair was a dead giveaway; he'd found his sister. Spotting him out of the corner of her eye, she jerked her head over to the left and moved over a little, refusing to admit she'd been found. "Bekah, I can see you!" Kol laughed.
Rebekah stood up in a pout, turning around to face her brother, her arms folded. She met Kol's dark brown eyes, and spotted a childish grin on his face. Kol had an appreciation for mischief that no one else in their family had, not even their brothers, Niklaus, Elijah and Finn.
"Father sent me. He said it's time to eat, and you know how he gets when things don't go his way."
Rebekah sighed. She hated that their game was over already. Their father was always insuring that no one would ever have time to play.
Kol offered his baby sister his hand, and gave her a sympathetic smile. The kind of smile that said, hey cheer up kiddo. "We'll play tomorrow Bekah. You have my word."
Rebekah still looked disastisfied. Kol paused. "Race you back home?"
Her face slowly lit up. Before Kol could even open up his mouth again, Rebekah had already run past him. "Hey, no fair, I don't remember giving you a headstart!"
