I am dead. I am so dead. No quite literally I am dead sitting here all by myself like an outcast in the Mikaelson house. Yeah you heard right. I live in Mystic falls well not really live now I guess. What is with the name mystic fall anyways it is just begging to be full of vampires, wolves, and witches. Before I go on a rant about how I suddenly was thrown into a world I had no clue of, let's say I knew about the Salvatores and Tyler Lockwood and hell even Klaus the hybrid who had been missing for a while but before I let too much go. Let's start with the day I met Kol Mikealson the one who ends up killing me.
I really hated Mystic Falls and would love to leave seeing as I didn't want anything to do with vampires and witches but it is kind of hard as my cousin Bonnie is a witch and my father who left with my mother 6 years ago a vampire and my mother also being of the witch variety. I don't think I would mind it if I was special but nope the powers decided to take a hike from my body so I was a normal human with no specialties and no parents. Who the hell knows where they went anyway? I went from family member to family member until I landed in the one place I would regret the most with perfect Bonnie who always helped everyone and channeled some old witches. I wouldn't admit it to anyone but I was jealous except for the fact she gave everything up for some guy. Not just any guy but one related to Elena Gilbert. The only people I didn't mind talking to was Damon he was funny and didn't care what people thought and one of the cutest vampires I had seen. Matt was cool too, he was human and not special just like me and he would do anything for his family I admired that. Then Caroline was cool also I really liked her I didn't normally like hanging out with girls but she was the first person I talked to when I came. Last but not least was Alaric he was a great vampire hunter which I had been trained in doing since I was five and when my dad got turned he just seemed more intent on me being able to kill a vampire. I guess that was my talent back flipping and staking people, such a pro. I was sitting there at the grill and eating some fries after school when I saw Damon and Alaric talking quietly at the bar close to one another. I could tell they were planning something. This never ended well. I stood up and went to talk to them.
"So what is it that your so enthusiastically planning?" Alaric glared at me and Damon smirked.
"None of your business Lizzie." Alaric spoke up.
"Aw, come on Ric, cute little powerless, vampire hunting Bennett could be a help in this situation. I mean she hasn't met them yet she could help us take Kol and figure out where the hell Klaus is." Had I just let myself been invited to take down an original? I hadn't faced them and from what I heard didn't want to. I glanced at Ric who was actually thinking about the situation. I walked over to the dart board and the guys followed me. We took turns for a bit in complete silence. Ric cleared his throat.
"She might have taken down a couple hundred year old vampires, but Kol is ruthless and hundreds of years older than she has ever dealt with." This made me mad for some reason. I walked over to my bag and pulled out a stake that I kept with me at all times. I took a few more steps away from the dart board. The space was almost 15 ft. Alaric looked at me like I was crazy. I pulled my hand back and chucked the stake as hard as I could it landed bulls eye and cracked the board. I glared at Ric and walked to the board and yanked the stake out and turned .
" I have been doing this my enter life Ric and seeing as you've been doing it for ten years you might not be able to take down an original but Mr. Saltzman I sure as hell can." I looked at Damon who was smirking and aimed straight for his head he caught is within inches of his face. He wasn't smirking anymore. " Think fast. Now what is this grand plan to take down Kol?" Ric grinned.
"Well you know the ball at the Mikaelson house tonight, lets make a splash." Damon said. I grinned and took a seat.
I looked at myself in the mirror. The plan was for me to look pretty. I would much rather go in jeans and a tank top but Damon insisted upon buying me a 300 dollar dress which I would probably never wear again. It was very pretty in a dark green with silver floral designs up the bodice it went all the way to the floor. I put on my necklace filled with vervaine along with the stuff I put in my beverages every day. My father had given me my silver pendant necklace when I was ten the night before my parents took off. I pulled up my skirt and stuck the vile of white ash and the dagger into my high healed boots and pulled down my skirt. I put on a bracelet that's pendant would spray a vervaine mist onto the vampire in front of me trying to kill me. I looked in the mirror for a final peak and really did not recognize myself all dolled up and ready to torture. There was a knock at the front door. I knew who it was. Bonnie had gone to the ball earlier with Elena so the house was empty. I ran down the stairs opened the door and found Damon standing there his hand on the doorway. He smirked and looked me from head to toe. He was dressed in a nice black suit with a green handkerchief hanging out of the pocket that matched my dress. I had to admit to myself how cute he was but never would go for him with to much Elena baggage.
"Wow, You look pretty good there powerless Bennett. Maybe we should just stay here and you could invite me in."
"Yeah, or I could come out there and kill you. Your not getting into my house." That smirk was starting to drive me crazy.
"Hey, no reason to be hostile save that for Kol, you'll need it." He took a step back from the door to let me out.
"Trust me I am always hostile." I brushed past him and walked to the car. The drive was quiet seeing as we already knew our plans. The Mikaelson's house was huge it wasn't even a house really more like a small castle. I looked down at my necklace and tucked it under my dress none of them needed to know that I knew about vampires just yet. We parked out in the front where Damon got out and threw the keys to the valet. He came over to my side of the car, opened my door and held out his hand. I grabbed it much to my dismay. We had to look like we were together and if I acted as if I wanted to punch the older Salvatore in the face the plan most likely would not work. We were ten minutes late which according to Damon would help us make an entrance. It did. Everyone was in the foyer and a blonde with an accent was talking on top of the stairs and stood by her were two guys both with dark hair. This must be them Elijah, Rebecca and Kol. The only Mikaelsons left in Mystic Falls. Rebecca sure didn't seem happy with Damon's late arrival. Everyone was staring at us and normally I would hate having all that attention on me but seeing as I had to act normal I couldn't yell at them for staring.
"Oh, Sorry about arriving so late. We were kind of preoccupied." He put his arm around me and kissed my cheek. I giggled like a school girl. These people had to believe I was just another one of Damon's toys. I looked around the room to find Bonnie, Stefan and Elena gawking at us. I was going to get the wrath of Bonnie at the end of the night but hey, by then Kol would have told us where his hybrid brother was. Kol seemed like the only one who might give in. Elijah ,from what Damon told me, seemed almost to nice to torture and he had helped them in the best. Rebecca wouldn't give up Klaus if her life depended on it. Damon said Kol had just enough hate to give Klaus up but it might take a few pokes. I had no clue who was who but it did not matter. I would take down anyone that was a threat to my family and friends. We walked down to the stairs and stood on the other side of the room away from the glaring people across the room. Rebecca kept going on how happy she was to be excepted into town and such. While the whole time Damon was whispering funny but rood things about her into my ear and I would laugh. To somebody on the outside it would seem that we were flirting. Rebecca got done with her speech and everyone clapped and the music started playing. Damon grabbed my hand.
"Care to dance?" He asked me glancing at the friends across the room who were heading our way.
"Do I have a choice." He spun me into the crowd where it would be difficult to start the fight I knew was fixing to happen. He put his hands on my waist and we danced to the top 40 love song that was playing at the moment. He looked down at me all of a sudden and leaned in and kissed me. It took all of my control not to use my vervaine spray on him. He leaned back before I even got a chance to realize what he just did.
"What the hell was that Damon?" I whispered into his ear.
"Bonnie was saying that your to smart to date me and that we must be up to something. I couldn't let her ruin this for us. She is to smart for her own good. It worked." I glared up at him. He grinned down at me.
"Don't ever do that again."
"Aw, Liz don't tell me you did not like that."
"It is Lizzie, and no I didn't, not one bit."
"Sure, that is what they say before they fall deeply in love with me."
"Well now that you mention it did give me stronger feelings about you, feelings that I want to punch you in the face." I leaned up against him.
"Sounds kinky." He laughed. I couldn't help but laugh at that. He seemed to flirt with everything on two legs. I swear I had caught him flirting with Ric once. Now that'd be hot. I smiled at myself
"You are a dork."
"Yeah well whatever works right?" I smiled until an accented voice spoke behind me spoke.
"I would say he is more of an idiot but to each their own." I turned to find the two brothers standing behind me.
"Now brother be nice to our house guests." He happened to have no accent and had a regal air about him. I guess he just looked like an original vampire should look. This must be Elijah, I said to myself. That must make the other one Kol I looked at him. He was very cute but arrogant kind of reminded me of Damon with the way he was smirking and staring at Damon. The difference was that you could sense something not right about him like a dangerous side under his boyish looks and smirk. I did have to admit he was pretty cute. I was not supposed to think that about the vampire I was going to kidnap tonight but hey I am a girl so what am I supposed think. Kol glanced at me looked away and back again with a conniving look in his eyes.
"Hello, I'm Kol forgive me that was very rude of me. I don't believe we have met?" He reached out his hand.
"Im Elizabeth but just call me Lizzie." I took his hand and shook it. I smirked up at him. "It's ok he can be idiotic at times." Kol let out a laugh at that.
"Would you care to dance?" He asked me
"Hmm," I looked at Damon and winked. "Sure I would love to." I looked at him
"Hey Elijah I need to talk to you it is very important." Damon smiled at me and for some reason grabbed Elijah's wrist and took off. If I did not know any better I would swear that sometimes the things Damon does weren't always straight. I glanced back at Kol who was staring intently down at me. Iris by the goo goo dolls started playing. I moaned inwardly of course it just had to have been that song. Kol put one hand on my waist and with the other took my right hand and held it in his. He pulled me as close to him as possible.
"What is it that you see in Mr. Salvatore?"
"Well, um" I had to make him believe I was under Damon's influence. " He is a great guy."
"And?"
"Just a great guy." I repeated. Kol just stared at me.
"Oh, poor girl."
"What?"
"Nothing lets finish the dance and then we can go get Damon's surprise."
The way he was looking at me I knew that the surprise wasn't going to be good for me. He lowered his hand on my back and pulled me so close I could feel his breath on my cheek. He spun me around. When he finished he led me out to a balcony about ten feet off the ground. Long fall I thought to myself. I stood peering over the balcony. I could sense him standing behind me.
"Such beauty, It shouldn't be wasted on a guy like Damon. Someone as pretty as you should be shown the world." I just took a deep breath.
"But, I love Damon."
"Of course you do as long as your influenced by him. It is really sad that you had to come here tonight with him." "Why is that?" I knew the answer.
"Because you wont be leaving here alive." I grinned to myself.
"That's what you think." I turned around quickly and saw that he had vamped out already. I sprayed him in the face with vervaine and kicked him in the chest he flew back a few feet. It wouldn't last long so I grabbed the dagger from under my dress and dipped it in the vile. When I turned back around he wasn't hunched over. He wasn't there at all.
"Shit."
"No need to fret I'm right here." I felt him grab my arm and throw me against the railing. He slowly walked towards me like I was his prey.
"So I see they sent a child to do a man's job how funny. Did they teach you that little trick yesterday?" He leered at me. I stood up and jumped on top of the railing flipped over his head and grabbed his shoulder threw him on the ground and got on top of him. He looked confused. Which is probably the reason he didn't throw me off him.
"Nah, But they did that one bitch." I drove the dagger through his heart. He turned grey and I got off of him. I grabbed his stiff body and weakened against the weight of it but managed to throw him over the edge of the railing. I slid down a pillar beside the balcony. When I got there Ric was already ready to go.
"Wow, that was pretty bad ass." He grinned over at me.
"Yes, but a little too easy." I looked down at Kol's lifeless body. "Anyways now can I get this freaking dress of." I grabbed one of the arms and Alaric and I dragged him to the car.
