Chapter 2
Normal POV
It was the end of the school day and Bonnie, Caroline, and Elena were in study hall. "Are you sure Bonnie" Elena asked whispering. Bonnie nodded and said "I'm sure the moment our hands touched I sensed that she was witch, but there's something strange about her magic." "What do you mean" Caroline asked. "I mean very old magic that hasn't been practiced for like centuries, my guess is she comes from a very powerful line of witches" Bonnie said. "So why does It matter to us" Caroline asked. "Because I remember Grams telling me that witches stopped practicing that kind of magic because of the danger that it imposes" Bonnie said. "So you think she came to Mystic falls for a reason" Elena asked. "I don't know, but I'm going to befriend her to see if I can find anything out" Bonnie said.
Just at that moment Rose walked in giving the teacher her slip. Rose then went to sit down at the only available sit which was in front of Bonnie. "So Rose how was first day" Bonnie asked striking up a conversation. Rose turned around and smiled and said "Very well thank you." "So how do you like Mystic Falls" Bonnie asked. "It's nice a lot different from New York that's for sure" Rose said giggling. "What made your parents decide to move from such a fabulous city to this boring town" Caroline said dramatically. Rose was silent for a moment, which worried the girls a little. "Actually it was my decision, you see I'm an orphan my parents died a few years ago and there was too many memories in New York." "Oh my god I'm so sorry" Elena said sympathetic to the young girl. Rose just shook her head and said "It's fine you guys didn't know." "So what you live all by yourself" Bonnie asked. Rose nodded and said "Yea in a small apartment in town, I'm supported by relatives elsewhere, but I'm still going to get a job to bring in some extra money." Bonnie by now seemed uncertain whether she had some kind of ulterior motive or now because she seems like just a teenage girl put in a tragic situation. Though through the experiences she's been through she knows she could also be making up some sob story as well. It was still better to get to know her to be on the safe side. So for the rest of the class period the girls got to know each other better and all four them got along pretty well.
Rose's POV
After class was over the girls invited me to dinner tomorrow night at the grill which I accepted. I can't believe this is really happening my life is finally starting to get back on track maybe god was watching me after all. As I was walking out of school I heard someone call my name. I turned around and saw it was that girl from earlier in the hallways. "Hey I just wanted to say I'm sorry for my behavior earlier you just caught me in a bad mood is all" she said. "Apology accepted, I never did get your name by the way" I asked. "Rebekah Mikaelson is my name" she said. "Well it was nice meeting you Rebekah" I said as I turned around to leave. "Rose I was wondering if tomorrow night if you'd like to come over to my place and hang out" Rebekah asked. "I'm sorry I already have to plans to go out with Elena and her friends at the grill, maybe some other time" I offered. "Sure, well see you later" Rebekah said leaving. This was great I was making more friends than I thought I was going to make. I looked at my watch and saw I was running late for my interview at the coffee shop. I have to hurry I can't mess this up.
Normal POV
When the girls arrived at the boarding house Damon, Stefan, Jeremy, and Matt were all there. Elena came in and kissed Damon causing Stefan to look the other way. "So what's going on we got your text message about something being important" Matt asked. "Yea and it better be very important too" Damon said. Bonnie rolled her eyes at Damon and looked at Jeremy. "Jeremy have you met the new girl Rose" Bonnie asked. "Yea she's in a few of my classes why" he asked confused. "Because earlier today when we shook hands I discovered she's a practitioner of Ancestral Magic" Bonnie said before being interrupted by Damon. "So what just because she uses magic that's older than yours doesn't mean anything" Damon said sarcastically. "Yea Bonnie you sure your not being paranoid about her, I mean she's a really nice girl" Jeremy said. Bonnie sighed and said "Look Ancestral Magic is stronger and more powerful than any magic there is out there, they have power that goes way beyond simple magic, anyone with that kind of power can do unspeakable things." "I know your worried Bonnie, but Rose doesn't seem like a power hungry person she seems good intentioned" Elena said. Before Bonnie could speak Stefan said "She's right Bonnie maybe your getting yourself worked up about nothing, she probably doesn't even know she has magical abilities." Bonnie by this point looked a bite angry and said "Fine, but if something does ends up happening it's all on you guys." Then she stormed out leaving.
Rose's POV
This Truly was the best day of my life, first I made friends and now I have a job as a waitress at the coffee shop it just couldn't get any better. As I was walking towards my apartment door I saw an elderly lady carrying two bags of groceries while trying to get her key in the door. "Here mam let me help me" I said grabbing the bags for her. "Oh you don't have to do that sweetheart" she said. I just smiled and said "It's my pleasure." The women smiled and unlocked the door. I sat the bags on the counter for her. "Thank you so much" the lady said. "My pleasure mam" I said. "Call me Edith, what's your name" she asked. "Rose" I replied. "Rose such a beautiful name, well Rose thanks for helping me" she said. "My pleasure, would you like help putting your groceries away" I offered. She just shook her head and said "I might be old, but I'm still a strong old lady." I laughed at her little joke. "Well then if you don't need any more help I should be going" I said. Before leaving Edith said "Stop by this weekend for lunch so I can repay and I don't take no for answer." "Ok I will" I said as I left.
When I got back to my apartment I just put the finishing touches on the decorations. Afterwards I cooked myself some chicken and ate on my pull out bed from the couch that was in the middle of the living room. Then after doing the dishes I layed down and watched some TV Land. Before I knew it I was starting to drift off to sleep.
"YOU FUCKING LITTLE BITCH" The man yelled slapping the girl right across the face knocking her against the table. "PLEASE STOP" the girl yelled trying to get away. The man just pushed her onto the floor and proceeded to punch her repeatedly. "THIS WILL TEACH YOU" The man than grabbed the lamp and smashed it at her head. "HELP ME SOMEONE PLEASE HELP" The bloody girl yelled out crying.
I woke up grasping for breathe. "Oh god no not again" I said shackingly. I quickly got up from bed and ran for the top cabinets. I opened them and found the pills I was looking for. I got some water and jugged it down. I looked at my face in the mirror and saw myself all shakingly. Then I went into the box next to my bed and grabbed my raggy doll and hugged it into my arms while I layed back down. "I love you" the doll said as I hugged it. "I love you too" I said crying into it. "I love you" the doll repeated as I hugged it tighter. "I love you too" I replied crying harder.
Author's Note
Well there's chapter 2 and I hoped everyone liked it. I know Bonnie might seem like a total bitch in this chapter, but it's just because she's trying to protect everyone and doesn't trust the power that Rose seems to have. I promise that Damon and Stefan will have bigger roles next time than they did in this chapter. So please review and let me know what you think.
