Hi so I hope you liked the first chapter.
I own nothing but Cali.
The Night of the Comet.
Dear Diary.
I know my life is going to change this year. Either for good or bad it depends. Today is normal: Stefan is writing in his journal, Damon is out and Zach is drinking his vervain coffee again. But today is special to Mystic Falls, today is the day of the comet, it hasn't been seen since I was human. 145 years ago, I remember looking up at it with Stefan, Damon and father. It was so long ago.
I wake up and for once I don't feel haunted. I don't see … No, I will not darken you with it. I will see Damon later; ask him what has been going on in his undead life, since I last saw him.
Bye for now.
Calianne Antonia Salvatore.
Cali rolled her eyes when Stefan went to talk to Elena. She could hear 'Wuthering Heights', Ellis Bell and Bronte sisters from that conversation. Bonnie was talking to Caroline about her gran being crazy. She could here Jeremy Gilbert threatening Tyler Lockwood. In short it meant she had nothing to do.
Growing bored she walked out the school, and walked over to her car. Opening her car door she sat down and closed her eyes after shutting the door. Opening them when she felt something, she looked down. Nothing had happened yet, it was weird, and she had spent so long with the curse…
"What's got you worried little sister?" A voice spoke from inside the car making her jump. "Please don't tell me Stefan's brooding is contagious."
"Damon" was all she could say. She looked at the young black-haired man sitting next to her. "No I'm just thinking."
Damon laughed. "Good 'cause next thing you will know the Hospital will need a new ward."
Cali smiled at him. Damon had only slightly changed. Not by much but noticeably if you looked closely. "So what's this about you killing the locals. You should know better Dame."
Damon looked at her slowly. "Little sister, you know I cover up my tracks all the tim-" he cut of at her look. "Well… most of the time, you and Stefan clear up the rest." Shaking her head, Cali started the car.
"I need to go shopping and you have just volunteered on coming with me." She rolled her eyes at his groan. "Come on, spend some time with you little sister. I haven't seen you in… 15 years." It was actually 15 years since he actually saw her but it didn't mean she had not checked up on him over them. As long as he didn't mention Elena they would be fine.
Cali walked into the Grill two hours later. Sitting by the bar she ordered a coffee. Listening around for any good or noteworthy conversations, her delicate hearing picked out Elena talking to Bonnie and Caroline.
"Well, I was talking to Grams, and she said the comet is a sign of impending doom." Cali sighed I knew it, something was going on. "The last time it passed over Mystic Falls, there was lots of death. So much blood and carnage, it created a bed of paranormal activity." She blinked, that was the vamps… mainly Stef and me now I think of it…
She then tuned sighed when they started to talk about Stefan. "Hey, you look like you need a drink." An amused voice told her as he sat down beside her. She smiled, if she was right he was Tyler Lockwood. "So you're the new girl, related to Zach Salvatore. I'm Tyler Lockwood"
"Yep, I'm one of the new Salvatore siblings in Mystic Falls. Nice to meet you, I'm Calianne but call me Cali." She looked at him closely; he seemed like Matt Donovan the stereotypical jock. He was also a Lockwood, one of her brother-in-laws decedents probably, Thomas had been devastated when she had died.
"Calianne? Huh, I had an ancestor that married into the family called Calianne." He looked at her. "You're not her right?" he joked.
"Nope." Cali said popping the 'p'. "It was nice meeting you Ty. I've got to go home, now. Uncle Zach will be worried." Waving at him she walked out the Grill, her hair blew in the wind as she walked towards her car.
Elsewhere at the boarding house Elena was talking to Damon. "You must be Elena. I'm Damon, Stefan and Calianne's brother."
Confusion fitted across Elena's face as she spoke. "He didn't tell me he had a brother."
Damon looked amused. Well. Stefan's not one to brag and besides Calles was always his favourite sibling." Damon's eyed then glazed over as if he was remembering something before snapping out of it. "Please, come in. I'm sure Stefan will be along any second."
As they walked into the living room, Elena gasped. "Wow. This is your living room?" she said as she looked around the room that was styled around the seventies.
"Living room, pallor, seventies auction. It's a little kitschy for my tastes. Cali would have things from the twenties if she could. I see why my brother's so smitten. It's about time; I never thought he'd get over the last one. Nearly, destroyed him. "
"The last one?" Elena was interested, who was the woman that had made Stefan almost self-destruct?
"Katherine." A short clipped answer came from behind her. Jumping around Elena saw Calianne Salvatore, Stefan's twin, leaning against the door frame. "Personally she was a bitch. I hated her, could never stand her. Got what she deserved."
"Hello Stefan." Damon said as Stefan walked through the door.
Cali looked at Damon blankly shaking her head. "Next time you decide to visit Gilbert, call or text ahead of time. Leave them alone Dame, come on, leave them to talk."
Once they had walked up the stairs, and into a room, Cali turned around and threw Damon against the wall and held him there. "Stefan was at the hospital today, fixing your mess. I don't care what you do or who you kill but clean up after Damon." Cali snarled at him, over the years she had grown tired of having to clean up his messes. "You seem to have forgotten about 1864, the council found out and your and Stef's precious Katherine got killed. You seem to have forgotten that Mystic Falls knows about us, and you seem to be trying to get us found out." She them dropped him to the ground leaving him gasping. "If you don't want me angry Damon, you are doing a bad job of it."
And with that she walked out the room leaving a gasping Damon behind wondering what had happened to his little sister.
Cali walked down the pavement, watching as kids ran about. "Are you just going to stand there and be Mr Broody?" she finally asked her twin who was standing behind her.
"No, I just wanted to walk to the town square with you." She looked at him, he was nervous and plain sad.
Cali sighed. "Just go and talk to Gilbert will you, already." She knew that was what had gotten him down. "I may not like her but then again you do, so ignore me and talk to her."
Stefan laughed; Cali had always know when something had bothered him and what it was. "What would I do without you?" he joked. A sad look took over her face.
"May we never find out, I'm your eternity plus 1, remember." Cali could still remember when she had been human and she and Stefan used to say that they could never live without each other. Of course when she had died and Stefan had turned her into a vampire a whole new spin had been put on the once slightly meaningless joke between two twins.
Stefan smiled a genuine smile. Grabbing some nearby drinks he handed one to her. "To eternity plus 1's" they said as they clinked their glasses together before drinking them.
Cali had been buying a soft toy of a wolf when she heard Damon and Stefan arguing. Walking into a dark alley she lifted herself onto a few boxes before jumping towards the wall. Just before she landed on the wall she pushed off with one of her boot-clad feet, doing a backwards summersault she landed on the roof neatly. All while holding her toy wolf.
Jumping over the roof tops she arrived to find Stefan, Damon and Vicki Donovan. She watched in silence as Damon compelled Vicki to say Stefan been the one who had attacked her. She looked on in interest when Damon had thrown a bleeding Vicki towards Stefan. She had almost laughed when Stefan had said that he was okay with the council knowing because atleast he would be free of Damon.
How naïve he was he would never be free of Damon, through death or him leaving he would always remember. Stefan had too much guilt for a vampire, Cali had always thought. He was one of the worst and suicidal.
She them jumped of the nearby roof and onto the ground missing the last of her brothers conversation.
Vicki Donovan was a notorious Drug addict, and so when she thought someone was following her she just shrugged it off. Living with her elder brother Matt, was hard for her. He was the perfect stereotypical jock with good grades while she was the little sister that had bad grades and did drugs.
But then again she had Kelly Donovan as a mother. Vicki and her mother Kelly were for most purposes the same. They always left Matt to clean up the problems and only had a boyfriend that did not care for them.
So when the new girl from school just appeared in front of her out of the blue, Vicki was rightfully freaked out. "Your Vicki Donovan aren't you? You live with your brother, don't know your father and have an absent mother."
"Yeah, what's that to you?" Vicki asked suspiciously.
The girl just laughed. "I can help you, you know. I can give you a new life, in a manner of speaking. You could do so much, start a fresh. You wouldn't have to feel like a disappointment anymore. You could tell Tyler no. You could be free."
Vicki looked at the girl. "Are you sure? I would be free?" Vicki was shocked, the only question now was: "What would I have to do?"
The girl grinned. "My name is Calianne but call me Cali and all you have to do is invite me in your house and we can talk about it."
As the comet stroked across the sky the Salvatore siblings were all doing different things.
Calianne was talking to Vicki Donovan in the Donovan house.
Stefan was kissing Elena, outside the Boarding House.
Damon was with Caroline, in the Forbes House.
But in the back of their mind they all remembered 145 years ago when they had all been human and had been together, when they had been happy.
I hope you liked this chapter as well.
You may have noticed already but I've decided that Vicki's storyline isn't going to end up like the series one, but be different. I'll figure something out.
Tell me what you think if you want.
