Rating: PG-13, well maybe not this chapter, but upcoming ones.

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the DOOL characters or the town of Salem, USA. If I did, this plot would probably be on the show, not on a fanfiction site. All I do own is the new character Majandra DuGrey and her family.

Author's Note's: This is my first DOOL fanfic. The idea just popped into my head a few days ago. This story will mainly have the Teens of Salem, and will center around Majandra and her interactions with them. Sorry that the first part doesn't have any of the DOOL cast, but I used this chapter as an introduction to my character. I promise there will be some interactions with DOOL cast soon. Some of this background on the new character probably isn't that realistic, but than again, when are soap plots ever 100% realistic? Oh, last thing; since it's never been announced what state this fictional town of Salem is located in, I decided (on the basis of a fact I read on some DOOL fansite) for the time being Salem is in Illinois. That's all for now.

On to the story:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After getting her luggage, 17 year-old Majandra DuGrey strolled out of the train station and onto the streets of Salem. Following a 12 hour train ride, Majandra found it nice to be able to stretch out, walk around, and breathe in the fresh Midwestern air. Majandra didn't know what possessed her to come to Salem. Okay, that's a lie, she knew exactly why she decided to come to this leafy little hamlet.

Two weeks ago Majandra graduated from high school. That day was the day her mother decided to drop a bomb on her. For some reason or another, Majandra's mother felt compelled to reveal her real paternity. In 1984 in England, Dr. DuGrey's colleague preformed a c-section that delivered twins to a young mother who was planning to give her newborn child up for adoption. The young mother was unaware that she was going to have twins since she never had the doctor do a ultrasound because she was afraid that she would get attached to her unborn child and change her mind about giving the baby up for adoption. When the babies were born, one of the twins was in poor condition, and it appeared that it wouldn't make it through the night. When they spoke to the young woman's father, he made the decision not to tell the mother about the second baby or her condition. After the mother recovered from her c-section surgery, she left the hospital only knowing and holding one of the two children.

Although they didn't want to split up the children, they realized that the healthy baby should go to the adoption agency as soon as possible because they couldn't keep her at the hospital. However, the other baby's condition hadn't changed, and was kept in the infant ICU in an incubator.

Dr. DuGrey had been head of the infant ICU and was in charge of watching the baby who was only known as 'the Miller baby.' After 1 month, 1 week, and 4 days, the Miller baby was back to full health, and it was time for her to be sent to the adoption agency. But during those weeks that Dr. DuGrey had nursed the Miller baby back to health, she had grown attached to her. So, after convincing her husband, she asked the adoption agency if she could adopt the Miller baby. Luckily, the agency hadn't found a family yet, so they allowed Dr. DuGrey and her husband to adopt the child.

In 1995, Mr. and Dr. DuGrey decided to move from London, England back to Mr. DuGrey's hometown of New York City where they have been living for the last 7 years in Manhattan. Which leads us to now. After raising Majandra for almost 18 years as her own, Dr. Lorelai DuGrey decided that it was time to tell her child the truth. Majandra was upset, to say the least. All Lorelai knew of Majandra's biological parents was that the mother's last name was Miller and she was from Salem, Illinois. And that's where Majandra found herself now, in Salem, Illinois, in the search of her birth parents and maybe some info on her twin.

She walked further down the street and started to near Salem University Hospital. As she started to turn a corner, she collided head on into a Salemite.

TBC. Sorry it's so short, but I figured I want to get this out ASAP. I'm sure a lot of you figured out who her twin is. If you haven't, you'll find out soon. I'm not sure if Majandra should be an identical or fraternal twin. What do you think? And who do you think should be the person that Majandra runs into? Oh, one last thing, need help with the title. Your opinions mean a lot, so please review. Thanks bunches.
