"No one in my family is to be trusted." - Rebekah Mikaelson

"In the beginning, our family was human, A thousand years ago, now. Although our mother dabbled in the dark arts, we were actually just a family trying to survive in a time when it was quite difficult to do so. And, for better or worse, we were happy.
That is, however, until one night, our youngest brother was killed by our village's greatest threat. Men that could transform themselves into wolves during the full moon. Our family was devastated, none more than Niklaus. Desperate to protect the rest of us, our father forced our mother to call upon her black magic in order to make us stronger.
Thus, the first vampires were born. But with this speed, this strength, this immortality, came a terrible hunger. No one felt this hunger more than Niklaus." - Elijah Mikaelson

"Oh Klaus is not my only brother, I had siblings I had a family, once. Klaus hunted them down, one by one and he took them from me." - Rebekah Mikaelson

~Andy's Point Of View~
-1657-
I was walking down the main path of Mystic Falls, it has been 200 years since I was last here, things are so different. I was look for my siblings to see if they were here which their are probably most likely not.

I was walking down the path, I heard people fighting do I went to see what they were doing. As I got there the group was around a guy who looked like he was 31 .

Has the group left I run over to the man to see if he was all right." Hey what's you name?" I asked trying to see if was okay, but by the look of him I knew he wasn't going to survive unless I did something. When he didn't answer I took action."I'm going to help you okay." I exclaimed, before biting my wrist and putting it in his mouth forcing him to drink it before I snapped his neck.

~A while later~
It was all silent when a gasp was heard. I looked back and saw he was awake.

"Hey. What's you name?" I asked hoping to get a answer as I walked to him.

"My name is Christian, Christian Coma." He answered with a confused look on his face."What happened to me?" He questioned.

That was when I decided to people who were like him and me.

People who were bullied, are depressed and feel like they don't belong.

-2006-
It has been 349 years since I helped Christian, who I started to call CC, cause of his name. We also have helped some other people. CC is now about 380 years old.

The one after CC was Ashley Purdy, he was being abused by his father when he was visiting, so as CC killed his father I turned him into one of us. He was 31 when I turned him, that was 28 years after I found CC. He is 352 years old.

Then it was Jeremy Ferguson, but he prefers to be called Jinxx. I found him trying to kill himself 10 years after I turned Ashley, he was 29 when I turned him, so his about 342 years old.

Finally last but not least was Jake Pitts he was a 30 years old when we found him he was depressed and I could connect with him, cause I was like this when I was still human. I turned him cause I could relate to him, that 5 years after I turned Jinxx so he is about 337 years old.

The band was originally formed in Cincinnati, Ohio in 2006 by me. In early 2009 he formed a new band, and signed with the independent label StandBy Records.

Me (lead vocals), Ashley Purdy (bass, backing vocals), Jake Pitts (lead guitar), Jinxx (rhythm guitar, violin) and Christian "CC" Coma (drums)
