I opened my eyes, and stared at my surrounding. I was lying down in a forest, and the moon was shining rays of silver light through the dense pine leaves in the forest. I lay there gasping, as the memories came flooding back to me. I remembered being pushed off the cliff, and the terror I felt as I plunged into the sharp rocks below me. I remembered the sudden pain and then blackness as death took over me. I was confused. Shouldn't I be dead? How am I still alive? I slowly sat up and looked around me. Everything was sharper, clearer, more defined. I could see every crease in the wood of the tree, and the dust that flitted through the air. My hearing was clearer to. I could hear the small rustle that animals made from miles off, and the cars from a free way nearby. I felt suddenly dizzy, as I stood up and walked to lean against the tree. Questions flitted through my mind as reality dawned on me. Suddenly out of no – where, my eyes went blank as I began to see something that wasn't in the present. I saw myself, running through the forest with a strange guy with black hair who I couldn't identify. I was running faster than even the fastest rollercoaster. A new image came across my mind as I was sucking the blood out of a mountain lion. Before more confusing thoughts could run through my head, I saw myself outside, waving my hands around as fire came out of them. I moved my hands in a circular motion as the fire stopped and water came out in spirals and danced around me. Those spirals then changed to tornados of wind, and formed one big circle of wind around me, protecting me from the outside. The tornado stopped as I went over, and I looked at one of my old friends, Elena Gilbert. I was shocked. I hadn't seen Elena since I was 14. I watched myself walk over to her, cut her wrist, and then place my hand over the cut and heal it. The image changed as words flitted over the scene in front of me. Aura, Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, Spirit,Elements,Witch Blood, Elena, Psychic, Mystic Falls. But the two words that stood out most to me were Klaus and Vampire. The vision stopped, and I was brought back to the present. Shock overwhelmed me as I started shaking and collapsed to the ground. I kneeled over as sobs shook my body. All the questions in my head now had answers thanks to that vision. I was a vampire. Klaus put vampire blood in those drinks he gave me, and then killed me and turned me into a vampire. What was I going to do now? How could I face my family and pretend like something hasn't changed; who could I trust with my secret? I decided I should go see my family. They don't have to know about me, I can just use the Botox excuse when they ask why I still look 17 when I am 30! I began walking in an easterly direction, trying to get a sense of where I was. Just then I had another vision, it was of a map with a red dot on the Angeles National Forest. I blinked and my vision faded. Relief came as I found that I wasn't that far from home. I wandered in the direction of the freeway, and a strange delicious scent came from the west. I was enchanted by this scent; it overruled my mind completely as I tracked it. I felt suddenly hungry, as my mouth started to water as the scent came closer. I silently travelled through the forest as I came to halt as I was faced with a deer. I could see the blood pumping through its veins close to the neck and I could sense the fear as it looked me in the eye. Instinct overtook as I raced forward, launched myself onto the creature and dug my fangs into its veins. Warmth ran through my body as the blood trickled down my throat, quenching my thirst. The deer put up a struggle, but it wasn't hard to restrain it as it became weaker and weaker with blood loss. I drained the animal and laid it to rest under a tree. I wiped the blood off my mouth as the realization of what I have done dawned over me. This is what I am going to have to do for the rest of eternity. Kill innocent creatures that should live long happy lives without the disturbance of unnatural creatures like vampires. How is it fair to take another's life so that you can survive? I contemplated this as I travelled towards LA. My family owned a house in Beverly Hills and we also had houses all over the world. My family wasn't as rich and Haley's parents, but we still did extremely well. I have seen people like Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner driving down our street, and they stopped for me to have a picture with them. I raced down the freeway, passing in between cars like a lightning flash. I went down Hollywood Boulevard, through Santa Monica Boulevard and down my street to my house. I walked through the gates when I had another vision.I watched myself approach my house as I saw my family dead; their bodies in a heaped pile. My boyfriend Christian and my best friend Haley were sucking their blood dry. I heard a cackling laugh and looked up to see Klaus perched up on top of the roof of my two story house, laughing at my sadness. The vision cleared and reality returned. I sprinted up the driveway where the scene of my vision was being repeated. Three metres in front of me, my best friend and boyfriend were feeding on my mother, father and brother; and Klaus was on my roof laughing at the death and sadness he had caused.
'WHAT HAVE YOU DONE' I screeched at him.
He jumped off the roof in a flash and dashed over to stand on the pile of my families bodies.
He grinned evilly at me. 'Oh I'm sorry, this is your family? I am so unbelievably sorry, I had no idea!' he said sarcastically.
'WHY HAVE YOU DONE THIS TO ME? YOU HAVE TAKEN AWAY EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING FROM ME. MY MORTALITY, MY FAMILY, MY BOYFRIEND AND MY BEST FRIEND. WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?' I screamed at him as tears of anger streamed down my face, streaking my face with watery lines.
Even though I was in pain, he still had that sarcastic, evil grin on his face like my hurting didn't faze him. He was cold, he was evil, and he was unhuman.
'I want you to join me, Ally. I want you to join me in my army of vampires, werewolves and hybrids to take over the supernatural world' he said.
Was he really that stupid? Did he really think that killing my family and friends would make me come over to his army? But the more I thought about it, the more I could see what direction he was taking. He was trying to take everything away from me, so that I had nowhere to go so I had to join him. Which really, it was true. Where else was I going to go? I had no relatives alive that I could stay with, school had finished so most of friends had moved away, where was I going to go? A memory came across my mind of the big vision I had had before, how I had wondered why Elena and Mystic Falls had popped up in the vision. Was I supposed to go there? Something about it seemed right, like I belonged there and my future was in Mystic Falls.
I looked up at Klaus' evil face with a new confidence in myself. He stared at me wearily as I paced towards him.
'Do you really think that killing everything I love and taking away my mortality would make me join your army? Klaus, for a person who has lived for thousands of years, you are pretty clueless.' I hissed at him as I stalked towards him. I stopped so I was millimetres from his cold, hard eyes. 'I will never, ever join you. You have no control over me and I will NEVER belong to you.' I said.
His faced was filled with anger, and also a bit of disappointment. His so called 'genius plan' didn't work out.
'You will regret this.' He hissed at me, bringing his face impossibly closer to mine. 'Get ready for hell, Ally, because its coming for you'.
And with that he raced off into the night, leaving me with my sorrow and the deaths of everyone I have ever loved.
