Irina's POV:

I stepped off the bus; the light of the sun burned my eyes. The dirt under my feet made a crunching sound as I walked towards 'Mystic Grill'. Everything is different, nothing looks as I had imagined. I could smell wolves, 'that's new' I thought to myself as I stepped into the bar.

I looked around for any other Vampires; I knew there were bound to be some around here. Bingo. I spotted one, short black hair and pain white skin, incredible sense of style. He looked sad.

"What's wrong?" I asked walking up to him.

"Everything! Everything is wrong!" He exploded.

I didn't flinch or leave. "What's your name?" I asked sitting down next to him and ordering two shots.

"Damon, Damon Salvatore." He replied. "Yours?" He asked looking up at me with blood-shot eyes.

"Irina, Irina Kinden." I replied. I always changed my last name so no one would know Klaus was my father. Yes, that's correct. Klaus is my dad. He… did it… with a human and 9 months later, here I am!

"Where have I heard that name before?" He asked his eyes returning quickly to the way they were. He looked at me up and down. "How old are you anyway? 12?" He snapped.

"I'm 1,042." I replied. He looked at me wide eyed.

"You don't look…. You're a vampire." He said as a 'duh' type thing.

"Yes, yes I am." I said nodding my head. "As are you, Damon" I said pointing to his daylight ring.

"Yes, you're correct. And so is my brother and my ex and my ex before that, and my ex and my ex before that, and my ex and my ex-"

"I get it." I held my hand up. "Sound like bitches."

"The last one, not so much."

"What was her name?"

"Elena." He replied tears coming into her eyes.

'Elena… I've heard that somewhere before. Klaus talks about her a lot. Oh! That's the girl he used to make his hybrids! I remember now!' I thought to myself. "I've heard of her, that's hybrid girl?" I asked.

He looked up from his drink which had just arrived. "Where have you heard that?" He asked standing up.

"I get around." I replied. "And I know all the originals, I was a-" I stopped.

"Were a what?" He asked.

"Nothing… I have to go." I turned to leave.

He grabbed my shoulder and turned me around, "Okay, I have a problem with doing this, but here's the thing. Either you tell me what you know, or I rip your heart out… simple right?" He asked.

"I'm stronger than you, Damon." I said pushing his hand off my shoulder. "And you don't scare me. I'm going to see Klaus soon; we have a lot of catching up to do." I said turning and walking away. I felt him following me.

"I'm coming, we can go now." He said pulling me over to a car. "Or you can just leave while you have your head."

"Whatever," I said getting in the car. "If I would have known you were such a diva… would. Not. Have. Talked. To you." I said as he started the car.

Damon's POV:

I've heard of this girl from somewhere! Klaus will know her… Klaus knows everyone!

"So, where are you from?" I asked her, I was determined to learn everything I can about this chick.

"Florence." She replied.

"Florence?" I drew out the word in order to get her to say WHERE Florence was.

"Florence, Italy." She replied.

"You don't look Italian." I said looking at her pale skin and obviously dyed blood red hair.

"Because I dye my hair?" She asked.

"Oh." This was getting awkward! I speed up, we have to get to Klaus, quickly.

"Where are we going anyway?" She asked, did she forget already?

"Go see Klaus." I replied quickly.

"What? Now!? No!" She screamed.

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Yes."

"No! Damon, you don't understand!" She screamed again.

"What don't I understand?!" I yelled over her.

"You'll see…" She said settling down and crossing her arms.

We pulled into Tyler's driveway. He's been hiding out here for that last month. Since Elena died he hasn't wanted to do anything lately. "We're here." I turned the car off.

"I know." She said. "What is that awful dog smell?" She asked as she got out of the car.

"Tyler." I replied.

"Wolf?"

"Yup."

We walked up to the door. I knocked, "Who is it?" Tyler yelled.

"Damon… and guest." I replied.

"Oh." He said as he opened the door. "Why, hello." He said smoothly to Irina.

"Please." I said pushing my way into the house. "Klaus!" I yelled.

Irina stood in the doorway. "Tyler get your mother to invite her in." I hissed. His mother came in and invited her inside. "Thank you." I said squinting at her as she walked out of the room.

"What do you want Da-" Klaus stopped in his tracks. "What are you doing here?" He asked Irina.

"You know her?" I asked putting on the dumb face.

"Hello, Klaus." Irina hissed.

Klaus came down the stairs quickly. "Why haven't you come sooner?" He asked hugging her. What is going on?! He never hugs anyone!

"I thought you were dead!" She pushed him off her. "Why did you write me?" Tears entered her eyes.

Klaus's POV:

How did she find me; why is she pushing me away. I almost forgot about her. It's kind of hard to keep up with people who entered your life so long ago, and to mention that they fell in love with a member of your family and married them. Yes, that is correct, Irina and Cole got married however I pierced Cole's heart with a dagger and he is currently in a coffin somewhere.

Irina never forgave me for that, she always pushed me away after that. She really did love him. But I'm not going to change anything, I'm proud of what I did and it was what was best for everyone.

"My sweet, that happened so long ago." I said rubbing her shoulder.

"I don't care. It wasn't your choice. It was mine and you betrayed that!" She screamed in my face, a tear running down her cheek.

I wiped it away, "Love, you know I never meant to do that. It was what was best for both of us."

"Don't act like you did it for me. The only person you did that for was yourself." She hissed.

"I don't understand what is going on." Tyler whispered to Damon.

"Oh, do tell them daddy." Irina spoke.

"Wait, what?!" Damon said looking to her.

"Irina is my daughter." I said through my teeth. This was the start of something big. I just don't know what.
