A/N: Hey guys, I decided to post chapter 2 today because it's a three day weekend and also this is more of a filler chapter than anything. I hope you liked my OC's and the parallels I'm drawing between them and the Originals. I don't own anything except my OC's. Warning: mentions of torture, but nothing graphic.

3rd person POV

Vampirism changes people. You are, for all intents and purposes, the same. You look the same and act almost exactly how you did as a human. The big difference is one trait. You have one trait that was prominent when you were human, but now it's multiplied itself by one hundred. The mates were no exception. James became a complete hopeless romantic. He believed in true love before, but now he wants to find it more than anything. He loves his family but wants something more. He doesn't enjoy killing, and only does it for necessity.

Julianna had always been kind. When she was turned, this was intensified. She couldn't bear the thought of hurting anyone or anything. When she killed during her transition, she was heartbroken. The others consoled her for days before she was okay again. Rosaline on the other hand, became even more of a spit fire. The others didn't even think that was possible. Her wild nature was still there, as was her love of partying. The way she saw it, people were meant to die and she was just speeding up the process a little.

Elise's sense of morals were raised. She had a strong sense of right and wrong. There are no gray areas in her mind. Killing is wrong, but feeding on humans is okay in her mind. Allison on the other hand, became a truly frightening vampire. Her anger took the front seat. She had no qualms over killing. If you made her mad, you died, simple as that. But, if you made her truly angry, the mind games would begin. She could make you see things in the shadows, and eventually she would drive you insane.

They had been stuck in the invisible house for 50 years. Jess' plan for using the five as leverage completely and utterly failed. You can't make a deal with people that you can't find. She had tried to contact Klaus for five years with no success. A few weeks later, she got close and was able to send a messenger to Klaus, but her messenger had never come back. She had realized that this was a possibility, and she had a backup plan just in case. She could try to harness the powers of the mates and use them to kill the Originals. There was only one way to do that.

Rosaline POV

50 years ago, we became vampires. At first, nothing changed and the same routine continued, we were left alone. Five years after that, everything changed. Jess liked to call it re-purposing, I called it torture. She would try and get us to use our "powers" by any means necessary. The guards would always come and take one or two of us away for a few hours and then return us worse for wear. During our times with Jess, she would try to "convince us that we should hate the originals." Honestly, the lady was pretty stupid. I mean they are our mates for a reason. It is physically impossible for us to hate them.

Three of us had managed to use and perfect our abilities. James, who could make anybody fall in love with him. And I mean anybody. It was creepy to watch these extremely large guys take one look at James and turn around with glazed over eyes, and ask him out. The first time it happened, Allison and I burst out laughing. It doesn't work on Jess unfortunately. We aren't entirely sure why. My theory is that she doesn't have a heart.

The next one was Julianna. You couldn't hurt her without being hurt yourself. If you were to give her a cut, it would feel like you got the same cut. There wouldn't actually be anything on your arm, but it would feel like it. Pretty awesome if I do say so myself. We don't know what would happen if you tried to kill her, and none of us are too keen to figure it out.

Elise is the other who figured her power out. She can change focus, which sounded pretty terrible when she told us. But, then she showed us what it could do, and boy was I wrong. If somebody were intent on killing her, she could randomly make you think about dogs and only dogs. You would completely forget about killing her.

The only ones who haven't figured out their powers are me and Allison. Honestly, with our luck we probably don't have any. At least we could fight though. Once or twice a week the guards teach us combat, and we are all pretty good at it. We tried to use this to escape but, the guards wear stuff called vervain, and it really hurts when you touch it. Even if we could get past them, we can't go into the sunlight or we will burn. We're stuck.

-Elsewhere-

Klaus was having a bad day. Mikael had almost caught up to them today, and Kol had left. To top it off he had been feeling a phantom pain for years now, and today it was getting bad. He was too stressed, and he couldn't take it. He threw his glass of alcohol into the wall of the house he was staying in.

"Brother, I don't think we should take out our frustrations on the wall." Came a voice.

"Hello Elijah." Klaus got up and faced his brother.

"And what seems to be the problem this time." Said Elijah.

"What happened to always and forever Elijah? First Finn and now Kol. They are all betraying me, are you and Rebekah next?" He was now ranting and breathing heavily.

"You should know Niklaus that I keep my promises. Our brothers needed time away from all the fighting. They will return home soon enough. Maybe they were looking for their mates." Elijah replied.

Klaus rolled his eyes, "Yeah, whatever you say, but we both know that the whole thing is probably just a hoax."

Elijah shrugged non-committedly. He rather liked the idea, and hoped it was true. "So what are we going to do now?"

Klaus smirked, "I think it's time to start breaking my curse."

James POV

We were waiting for Allison to be brought back. She's the last one left to control the ability she was given. We were concerned, this is the longest she's ever been gone. Rosaline only mastered her ability last week. The only reason it had taken so long to discover it was because, oddly enough, she had never thought to sing while she was tortured. She's a siren. Her song makes everybody immediately go to her and do whatever she says.

The door flew open and the guards were carrying an unconscious Allison. They dropped her off and quickly left before Rosaline could act on the thoughts her eyes were portraying. We all rushed over to her and she groaned.

"Hey guys, I mastered my power." She half smiled before groaning again.

I checked her over for injuries but I didn't see anything. "Hey sis what hurts?" I said in as calm of a voice as my panicked state would allow.

I got a grunt that sounded like she said back. We turned her over and all gasped in horror and disgust. There was a cut from the top of her right shoulder to her left hip. It was ginormous. It was closing as we spoke, but to my added shock there was a scar in its place. That shouldn't be possible.

When it had finished healing, we asked her what had happened but her face became blank and she wouldn't answer us. Allison did tell us her power was to control the temperature of a person. She can make them feel as hot or as cold as she wants without physically harming them. She sets people on fire without the fire. I was so angry and frustrated at everything that had happened, I stood up and punched the wall. We can't keep doing this. We need to escape.

-Elsewhere-

Klaus' back was killing him. There was no logical reason for it to hurt as bad as it did. He had asked Rebekah if there was anything there, but there wasn't. After four hours it just stopped. He was extremely confused, but shrugged it off. There were more important things to do.

700 years ago

Julianna's POV

Tonight was the night. We are going to escape. We planned for every possibility and scenario. It was time. I curled up on the ground and was as still as I could be.

"Julianna come on wake up! HELP! We need help down here!" Shouted Elise.

We waited with baited breath. Finally, the door opened, and we attacked. The vervain burned but we ignored it and continued to knock them out or kill them. Allison made the rest of the guards feel like they were on fire, and we ran. The place was still a maze but with our heightened senses we avoided all the guards. We had decided to avoid Jess at all costs because we couldn't kill her as she was. We found the door and ran outside into the daylight. We had escaped during the day because there are always less guards. The many years of planning were the only reason the escape went this smoothly.

We took refuge in the shade of the forest while we healed from the burns. We camped out until night, with Allison killing all the guards that came looking. Once nightfall hit we ran and never looked back.

Present Day

Allison POV

We ran that night and started a new life. We always stuck together. We never portrayed ourselves as rich, always middle class. We were careful to not draw to much attention to us. We met a witch that made us daylight rings, and allowed us to keep a tab on the Mikaelsons.

We tried to avoid them as much as possible. Any meeting we had would feel like it was set up. Also, they might feel we were using them if we arranged a meeting.

There was also the last hint of bitterness. We recognize that being captured wasn't the Mikaelson's fault, but at the same time we were captured because of them. Mikael is also a problem, we had no hope of killing him and we weren't risking it. Even if we could love the Originals, that doesn't mean we do right now.

So we sat by and spent our time avoiding Mikael and Jess, who was still looking for us. James flirted with every girl and went on so many dates. Julianna learned anything she could. She's a genius, and she also lost a lot of the shyness she had.

Rosaline was partying and hooking up with whatever walked. Elise went to public events for charities and foundations. And me, well I became a recluse. I still went out and found a passion for writing and eventually photography when it was invented. I was the most messed up out of all of us. I know my siblings are concerned, but I really am fine. I may be cold towards anyone who isn't family, but I'll be okay.

We were in California when the call came. A witch we had keeping tabs on our mates had a vision of what was to happen. Many of them were shocking, and horrifying. Not a lot of them were good. Kol and Finn would die, and overall the family would be torn apart. There weren't many details about when, or in what order these things would happen, but there was a place where it would all start. I sighed and turned around.

"Guys we need to go to Mystic Falls."

A/N: Okay, I'm not entirely happy with this chapter, but it needed to happen. I don't really like using flashbacks too much, and these chapters allow for me to continue the story without too many flashbacks. I also said what their powers can do so they can be used more later on. From now on the story is in TVD era, so it should be better and I can show a lot more character development and traits of my OC's. So hold on, the more interesting stuff is coming. Thanks for reading!
