(A/N: Hey! I'm sorry for the lack of update ;D But if you may or may not have noticed ^-^ I have decided to rewrite EVERY SINGLE CHAPTER before continuing xD I ain't satisfied with them anymore!

Okay, for a time-line to base this off of this is going to be slightly AU but in the middle of Season 2 *ish* where Katherine is in the tomb. Later, I'll have some series episodes scattered throughout for reference~

NOW Enjoy V.2!

Kristi's POV

The first thing I recalled was a leafy, dark sky above me. I blinked, still a bit drowsy and disoriented from… whatever had happened to me. Finally, though, I forced myself to move, but instantly regretted it.

A sharp pain shot through my head and I let out a strangled cry. My hand instantly flew to the injured spot. I winced, drawing my hand back when I felt something warm: blood.

"What happened to me?" I thought to myself while looking around, hoping to see something that would trigger ANY form of memory at all, a name, a place, a person even…

That's when I realized that I was in the middle of the woods. How had I gotten here? I tried to rack my brain for an answer, only to discover that it was void of any memory dealing with my personal life. Sure, all of the school knowledge and things like that was there, but nothing else of any real importance for this instant.

I thought harder, I needed to remember SOMETHING, anything that could help me. Even my own name would do at this point.

The second I thought that a few things came back to me, it wasn't much but it was a start.

One, my name was Kristi Angel Blackwood.

Two, my parent's names were Angel Bennett-Night and David Night. My mother was a witch, and my father a vampire.

And three, I could remember what I was…

I was a half-witch, half-vampire… the ultimate hybrid, or so my brain told me.

I grunted at this new information, trying to find anything else. I kept coming up blank, no matter how much I searched. It was like there were barriers in my own mind, not letting me see anything besides what was absolutely necessary. I growled, this was great, just great. I was injured and in the middle of nowhere with only bits and pieces of information to work with to help.

I forced myself to sit up, using an arm for support while the other held my head. The world spun a bit and I closed my eyes, breathing deeply to help it fade away. Once it did, I opened my eyes again and checked my body for any further injuries. I smiled a bit when I found none.

"Okay," I mused to myself, "now to find some civilization, figure out where I am…"

I stood up a bit shakily but was instantly using a tree for support. I leaned my forehead against it; my breaths a bit quicker than normal as my ears rang. I really needed to do something about my head.

Just then, I remembered something very obvious.

I was a witch.

I rolled my eyes at my stupidity and tried to search through my brain again for a spell of some sort that could help me. I cursed when nothing came up at first, but then, suddenly, words were running through my head. It was a spell. It was like my brain was only allowing me to remember or recall what was absolutely needed. I rolled my eyes, stupid brain.

I said the spell to myself as it ran through my thoughts again and was very happy when I felt that my gash had closed. THAT was one less thing to worry about, at least.

Now I needed to clean myself up and go about finding that town so I could eat or sleep perhaps. I went through my brain, hoping to find a spell to help with that TOO but came up blank, much to my chagrin. I didn't let it bug me too much though and instead resorted to the old fashion way of getting un-lost.

I let my head tilt back to stare at the scattered bits of sky above me amongst the trees. I sighed when I could only see a few stars. No help there, then. I'd need to get out of these woods to see the stars more. Problem was I didn't know what direction was out.

I shrugged to myself and simply moved forward. I'd get out eventually, that I was sure of.

…. …. …. …. ….

I grunted as my foot hit yet another branch. I was stumbling around like an idiot and I had yet to find a way out. I was still racking my brain for anything helpful as I went and was still empty-handed.

Just then, I saw a break up ahead. I almost rushed in my joy, beaming when I realized I was in someone's back yard.

My joy, though, was short-lived. There was no way I could go into anyone's house, much less be let it. I could only imagine what I looked like, muddy, tired, bloody and scratched up as I was. I probably was a sight to behold that much I was for sure of.

I decided I would try, though, knock on the door and pray for the best because you never knew until you tried.

Just as I was about to take a step forward, movement caught my attention in my peripheral vision. My vampire instincts were quick to take over and my head instantly snapped to the side, my eyes zeroing in on the movement. I noticed two green eyes looking right at me and I cursed mentally, not sure if this was a good thing or not, to be spotted.

The eyes quickly disappeared and I sighed, sitting down where I was. Assuming the man was coming out; all I had to do now was wait.

Stefan's POV

"Ever since Damon put Katherine in the tomb, he's been acting a bit off," Elena mused, sitting on her bed as I paced slightly in her room. I nodded in agreement as I paused at the window, the silky curtains running through my fingers.

"What do you think we should do about it?" she questioned me and I opened my mouth, about to answer when I saw someone out the window. I paused, staring a bit in shock at the figure there. She looked lost and injured and a bit disheveled. I was instantly concerned and yet afraid at the same time. I was concerned for the girl's well-being and afraid of why she'd be in the situation she was in. For all I knew, she could be a threat to Elena.

"Stefan, what is it?" Elena asked, coming up behind me to see what I saw staring at it.

"Um…" I said, not sure how to explain, so, instead, I simply stepped aside and let her see for herself.

Elena gasped a bit. "It's a girl… and she looks like she's hurt!" she realized in shock. She turned to me and I simply nodded.

"Well, don't just stand there. We should help her," Elena said, about to turn and go when I grabbed her wrist.

"You don't know if she's dangerous or not," I said firmly and Elena grinned a bit.

"She still needs our help and, besides, that's what YOU are for," she reminded me, poking my chest before turning and leaving. I sighed, shaking my head but I was grinning as I quickly followed. This is why I loved her.

I caught up with Elena just as she hit the bottom of the steps. She opened the front door and I quickly grabbed it, looking over at Jeremy, who was watching T.V., before shutting it quietly behind us.

I took Elena's hand and pulled her behind me a bit as we headed around to the back of the house. I let go of her hand but kept her behind me as the girl came into site. She was sitting on the ground as if she was waiting for us. She smiled a bit when we paused about fifteen feet away.

"Are you okay? What happened to you?" Elena asked from behind me. The girl shrugged.

"I'm sorry I look like this," she apologized. "I kinda woke up in the middle of the woods and… well I was like this. I can't remember how either. I hoped you'd come out to help. I understand if you don't want to but… I don't know where else to go."

The girl winced and looked at her crossed legs while Elena tried to step forward. I instantly held her back, though. She shot me a pleading look. She obviously wanted to help the poor girl but I wanted to know more about her before I would allow that to happen.

"Who are you?" I asked her, trying not to sound rude but I definitely heard a bit of a protective edge in my voice. Of course, she could be a vampire for all I knew. I wasn't really worried about myself, but Elena on the other hand… I had every right to be defensive or protective.

The girl looked back up, tilting her head to one side as if she wasn't sure, but that's when I realized she was staring right at me.

The next four words she said defined her actions and scared me half to death. The way she said it didn't help, there was no hint of fear in her voice, only a firm and sure tone.

"You're a vampire."

(A/N: YAY! Okay so here is the revised version! I so hope you all liked it more than the first~ I hope some of you are still here… I understand if you aren't. I just haven't been in a romance mood so I could never get what I wrote to come out right. I hope you don't mind if you still are here!
