A mysterious girl show up in mystic falls unfamiliar with the mystic world that exists all around her. Thrown into it head first, can she be comforted by Damon and taught how to survive.

A/N: I have decided to try something a little new. For those of you reading my other fanfiction, do not fear. I will still be working on that one as well. This just came to me the other night and I had to at least try it out. This is not a Delena. Its Damon/OC, but will probably stick with what is going on in the series. No cannon characters this chapter. I just wanted to introduce the character that I have added and get something up on here to get it rolling. No other chapters will be this short. Hope you enjoy. Please tell me what you think :)

Her heart was hammering in her chest as she drove, sweat pouring down her face. The only thing that she could think was that she was about to die.

"Please," she whispered to herself. "Just a few more miles. I'm almost there."

She had been driving for five and a half hours and the man had told her it would take six. Now if she could just find the small town she would be in the homestretch. It was dark now except for the faint light of the moon that shown from behind the clouds

That's when it started. Her skin tingled and her body hurt. Cramps shot through her body and she screamed as she slammed on the breaks. She breathed hard, her chest rising and falling rapidly and then the pain stopped. She steadied her shaking hands and stepped on the gas again.

Almost there, she thought to herself once more.

She drove a few more miles when she came across the sign she had been looking for. It was small and she would have missed it in the dark if she hadn't been looking. Welcome to Mystic Falls, Home of the Timberwolves. She smiled at herself, realizing that she was finally here. Now if she could only find—

And that's when the pain came back. Unbearable this time. Pulses of pain shot through her head and limbs. Her skin burned like it was on fire. She pulled over once again and slammed her balled fists into the dashboard. That's when she felt it coming. She was going to be sick.

She opened the car door and rushed into the nearby woods. Although it was probably the early morning hours before the sun would even began to show its head, she didn't want anyone to see her get sick. She ran farther into the forest, hearing the leaves and twigs rustle under her feet. Finally she collapsed against a tree and let herself get sick.

As she empty her stomach of any remaining substance on the ground, the searing hot pain that racked her body tripled in intensity. She screamed at the top of her lungs, and she felt herself falling. Before she hit the ground she was unconscious.
