I'm extremely proud of myself for getting this chapter done in one sitting. It normally takes a couple. Anyway, I know this chapter is quite a bit smaller than the others but sometimes, things just come out shorter than you plan. Anyway, enjoy!


10th century

It had been a few months since the Mikaelsons first moved to Mystic Falls. It had gotten a lot colder, and a few days before Christmas, they all got their first sight of snow. Every day, I had spent with Rebekah or Nik, I would never admit this to anyone, but, I was starting to feel something for Nik. I'd never felt it before about anyone so I didn't really know what to think about it.

On the first day of snow, we had been together in the forest when it first started to fall. "Look! It's snow! It's been nearly a whole year!" I called and squinted up at the sky to catch a better glimpse of the flakes.

"I love snow. It creates a great atmosphere for sketches of certain blondes." Nik said, smirking at me.

I pulled my shawl tighter around my shoulders and shivered slightly. "Too bad it's cold otherwise I could stay out here forever." I said, grasping his arm lightly and pulling him into a small cave that could act as shelter until the snow slowed down enough for them to get back to the village.

"Your so different, Nik... I've never met anyone quite like you before." I said abruptly and before he could say anything, I continued, "Your funny, an amazing artist, great to be around... I don't even know what I'm saying."

I looked over at him to see him grinning. "What?" I asked.

"Nothing, Love."

"Have you ever met someone. Who you love?" I asked suddenly.

"No... well, I don't think so. Have you?"

We had both been sat quite close, to keep warm, so close I could feel his warm breath on my cheek as we turned our heads to face each other. "I don't know..."

Everything was so awkward... Before I could change the subject my lips were doing something else. Nik had leant over and closed the small space between our faces and pressed his lips to mine.

Our lips had only touched but that one small thing had awoken things inside of me I didn't know I could feel. We both pulled back at the same time and I raised one hand to cover my mouth as my cheeks turned red. "I shouldn't have done that." I mumbled. "Mother would be so mad."

"Aw, love... You look so beautiful with your cheeks red; although you look beautiful all the time. So would my mother but they don't have to know..."

"I see your point. Then there is no problem in doing this." I pressed my lips against his again. It was such a weird experience. It was like we knew exactly what the other was going to do so we moved in sync.

I wasn't sure how long had passed but sure enough, after we emerged from the cave, the snow had covered the ground a few inches. As they trudged back to the village, I got snow up my dress as it stuck to my legs. Me and Nik were holding each others' hands but as soon as we reached the border of the village, we let go. I placed my hand on my shawl to keep it in place while Nik put his arm around my shoulders for support.

We reached my hut first, He dropped his arm and lent against the wall casual almost. "That reminds me... it's a full moon. I'm sure your family have been made aware of what occurs on these nights."

"Yes and I'm sure mother has prepared enough food for the entire village." 'Nik joked.

"Well, just make sure you get yourself down there." I said and then disappeared inside. I went straight to the fire and warmed my hands on it. A few hours had past and I had hardly moved an inch, I didn't even hear someone else enter.

"Hello!" Rebekah called and I stiffly turned around to face her. I rubbed my eyes to make the dryness go away after staring in the fire for too long.

"Oh, hello! Is it still snowing?"

"Yes, it's gotten heavier but it is nearly time to head down into the caves. I came to tell you as your family are already down there. Your mother was starting to get anxious."

"Okay, I'll meet you there, I just got to grab a few things from my room."

"Okay, I'll talk to you in a little while." She said as she disappeared.

The last thing anyone would want is to be stuck in a snow storm surrounded by werewolves. I started to gather my feet up from under myself and stretched one limb at a time. After I had taken my first step towards my room, I heard a shout of pain and quickly disregarded the idea of getting my blankets.

I had to hurry or I could get stuck out here all night. I put the fire out in the main room and went to the closed front door. I swung it open carefully and was immediately engulfed in a wild blizzard of ice. I gritted my teeth and stepped out into the freezing world.

The visibility was extremely bad here. I couldn't even see my hand out in front of my face. My eyes were near enough closed and so that's why I didn't notice the wolf shape in front of me until it pounced me.

I was flung back onto the ground, my shawl coming off around me, my hair spraying around my head. After a few seconds, my felt a warm liquid pool under my head, and then my vision blurred slightly but I still caught the sight of a werewolf. It began to maul at me, the pain getting worse until finally, as if I couldn't wait to have the relief of no pain. I felt myself slip away and my eyes close.

I felt my life end. My short life. I felt my soul slip out of my body and up towards the sky where I knew, my next life was soon to begin.


It was morning, He hadn't seen Adelina all night. Everyone had gotten worried about where she was, but, she had lived here since she was little and was used to this sort of stuff so everyone assumed she would be safe somewhere. Klaus just couldn't shake the feeling of something being wrong. He was right though, he couldn't sleep all night and when everyone finally emerged from the caves to start the day he saw her. Well her body, lying out in the open. It had stopped snowing and he could see stains of red in the snow around her.

He let out an agonizing wail and ran over to her. He dropped to his knees and began to cry. "No. No. No. Adelina, please wake up." He kept repeating, each time getting more frantic and loud.

A group of villagers had surrounded them, shocked at the sight before them. If she hadn't of been dead and just sleeping, Klaus could have sworn she looked like an angel. And so, for the first time since he had seen her, he lifted his eyes to the sky and felt like he was staring right into her soul. I love you, so much Adelina. He said in his head as he mourned the loss of what he now realized was his true love.


Thats the end of Caroline's first life! Sadness :( I hope you liked it though, I thought it would be fitting for her to die from a werewolf.

I'm thinking of going into hibernation after the season finale of tvd. The next time I post, I will have witnessed the episode, probably cried myself to school (I live in England so have to watch it in the morning) and will probably write an a/n about how sad it was.

Until next time!

-Holly!

Ps, btw, new time zone next chapter! If you have any requests of when I should write, do tell! Also, the originals will be vampires after this chapter. Js.

Okay, now its a byeeee and the end of my rant.
