Chapter 1: Spell hunting
"Where have you been?"
"I got distracted." A young, dark haired man wiped the blood of his mouth.
"By what Damon, a lonely girl in the streets?"
"Stefan, we have a problem you know. There are vampires all over this town. And that's all good because lucky us, we're vampires too right? But those other bloody vampires have NOTHING in common with us. They wanna see us dead."
"Correction, they want to see YOU dead."
"Come on brother, we're a team right?"
Stefan and Damon Salvatore, two of the most famous vampires in the world. They had quite some rocky roads in their past, and others are not willing to stop fighting until they're killed. Of course they have allies, but mostly the others hunt for them too. Stefan, the more thoughtful young man, tries to find the solutions of a free, dead life. Damon rather smashes off the heads of his enemies, or creatures who bond with their enemies.
"Yes, whatever you want Damon. But this killing blood suck party needs to stop. We can't keep fighting day after day to get our town back."
"Well little brother I'm not willing to flee my home, because if we do, we need to keep moving every other year. People are going to notice we don't get older, remember? We don't age! Gosh I need a drink." Damon reached for the bottle of bourbon, but Stefan was first and took the bottle.
"Not now Damon, I have a plan."
"Oh, glorious. And what might that be?"
"If we can't keep other vampires out of Mystic Falls, we need to make sure they will never get in."
"How are you planning on doing that. Even Bonnie couldn't make a cloaking spell, and she's a bloody witch Stefan!"
"We don't need a witch, we need more of a wizard."
"Oh sure, like Mickey Mouse's fantasia wizard? They don't exist out of our television."
"Not in this world, but in another they did." Bonnie walked in, with a stack of witch craft books, "Look, it might sound crazy but there's actually a town in Main where no one can enter."
"Bon Bon, glad to see you! So how do you know this all." Damon took manage of the bourbon bottle and took a seat on the massive couch.
Bonnie rolled her eyes, "To be honest, I'm not quite sure if it really does exist. I've heard rumours. The town is invisible, so no one doesn't even know about it."
"Why would you cloak a little town?" Stefan asked.
"Because the people in there don't want their secret to be spread, they're from another world." Bonnie opened one of her books, "Here, the page for cloaking a town is ripped out of this book called mysteries of Mist Haven. I've searched everywhere for the name of this land, but it doesn't exist. At least, not in our world."
"So we have to travel to another world?" Damon stood up.
"No, the people of that other world travelled to ours. They brought a piece of their magic here, but in protection."
"So where are we heading Bonnie dear." Damon smirked.
Bonnie sighted, "Storybrooke."
In Storybrooke, Maine
"Excuse me, can you repeat that?"
"The protection spell is weakening, Regina." Rumple dusted off some of his old collections in the Pawn Shop as he spoke to the mayor.
"And what now, we're going to place a big board: Welcome to Storybrooke, have a magical time, or what?"
"I don't know and to be honest I don't care, you're the queen remember?"
"Well, I am not anymore. Since Emma came to town we all kind of share the spot, don't we?"
"Does it look like I do the book work? Maybe you should ask Belle and see if she has a solution."
Regina sighed, "I locked her up in a dark room for 28 years, I have a feeling that she wouldn't want to help."
"Well I'm not going to ask her anything that has to do with magic, you know I get to be seen as the beast quite quickly. Anyway, she would do anything to protect our town."
Regina nodded and made her way out, Belle would probably be found at the library since that was her favourite place to be. The protection spell of Storybrooke made the town invisible, but the spell wasn't how it was earlier anymore. It became quite old and needed to be updated if they wanted their town to stay invisible for outsiders. Rumple made the spell, but needed help to keep it up. Such magic requests great power.
"What do you mean, you don't know how to do it?"
"Like I said, it will take me ages to find something in these books about a spell Regina. I don't even know if we have the exact spell book in this library. Do you have any other spell books?" Belle placed a big stack of books on one of the shelves.
Regina walked over to the counter, "I have my mother's spell book..."
"Well I need every little bit of information to find the spell, It's not like we're finding out a historic fact. This specific spell might be hidden."
"I'll bring the books from my office to the library." Regina walked over to the exit door.
"Would you mind if I'd ask Henry for some help? He'd probably be happy to help with this as he calls a mission?"
Regina turned around, facing Belle, "Of course, he would like to be involved." She gave a friendly smile and walked out the door. Regina hated uninvited visitors in their town, so she had to do something about this mess.
In Mystic Falls
"So if I understand it correctly, we're leaving to go to a town that's invisible? How are we ever going to know where we need to go?" Caroline ran her hands through her hair as she stormed through the room.
"Well do you want our town to be covered with hungry vampires?"
"You're acting like one pretty well Damon!"
"Stop fighting little girls, we need to go." Bonnie gave Damon one of the car keys, "You better drive responsible." Damon smirked as she walked out, "One day I'll get my pay back Bon Bon."
Little did they know that one of the blood sucking vampires was standing outside, hearing everything they said. Soon enough the rumour would go around town, the Salvatore brother's were on their way to keep their enemies away.
"Caroline?"
"Stefan?"
"Are you sure you want to come with us?"
"Yes, why wouldn't I?"
Stefan swallowed, "It might not be very safe..."
"And staying here is you mean? I need to come with, would you've told Elena the same?"
"That's different Caroline."
"No Stefan, there is no difference. I am coming with and that's it. Elena would have done the same, she would have done everything to keep this town ours. Matt and Alaric are staying here, they'll make sure no one burns this town down."
"Alright... Get in the car then."
In Storybrooke, Maine
"Hello?" Regina picked up her phone.
"Hey it's Emma, we have a problem."
"What, you lost your pirate?"
"Regina, no jokes now."
"Alright what is it?"
"A group of strangers just walked into town, I thought we made sure it was invisible?"
"We've been facing some... Difficulties." Regina grabbed her mother's spell book out of her office and walk towards the main door. "How many?"
"Two girls and two boys, they looked like ordinary people... Until they vanished in a second like they ran as fast as lightning."
"What creature can run that fast?" Regina opened the door, facing the group of newcomers.
"Vampires, lady." Damon answered.
"I think I found them Emma... See you at the town hall." Regina hung up the phone. "What might vampires do in my town?"
"Actually, three vampires and a witch, but we'll leave the details for now. We have to talk."
