Devil's Child

"Uh, Kayla, how about that dinner?" Brandon laughed nervously.

"What? What do you mean by "Devil's child?"

"Wait, can someone explain to me how Kayla did that to Logan?" Kara pointed at him.

"Kayla, 'Devil's child' means that you are his child. You belong to him. It's one in a trillion, Kayla. Not only are you the child of the devil, you have more than one power, in fact, all of them."

That silenced everyone.

I let go of Logan and sat down on the floor.

"You're no longer welcome in this house. Get out. Now."

"Seriously? You're selling me out?"

"Seriously. The council will not only go after you, but will go after us as well, thinking we are accomplices. GET OUT!" he spat.

"Fine. You can all rot in Hell for all I care."

Then I sped out.

I sped out into the middle of unknown woods and punched a tree.

"AHHHHHHHH!" I screamed angrily.

I walked over to another tree, and kicked it over.

"Kayla, are you okay?"

Kara.

"Just drop the act, Kara. I know what you're planning to do. You and Brandon both."

"Oh, what exactly am I planning to do?"

"You can't take me down. I hope you know that."

Everything went white again.

"I'm going to kill her, Dave."

"No! Don't! She is for the Council to deal with!" my mother cried.

"You just told her to get out! You told her so was no longer welcome here! Why can't you see that she's going to hurt you if you don't let her go?!" Logan yelled.

My mother stayed silent.

"I'm killing her."

And with that, he sped out of the house.

I was pulled out of the vision by someone grabbing me from behind.

"We can't take you down, huh?"

''No-"

I was cut off by someone stabbing me with wood.

Right in the heart.

I looked up to see who it was.

Guess who, Logan.

"We could've avoided all of this." he whispered.

"KAYLA!" I heard a heavily accented voice yell.

He sped over to me and ripped the stake out, but I was already falling.

"Kayla…."

He propped me up against a tree and moved my hair out of my face.

"It..h-hurt-ss K-klaus…" I stuttered.

He nodded.

"I know…."

Kara sped away with Brandon, but Logan stayed.

"Just breathe in and out. Keep your eyes open."

I nodded at Klaus.

A second later Klaus had Logan pinned up against a tree.

"WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?!" he yelled.

"I don't know why I did that….." Logan whispered.

"WHY WOULD YOU STAB HER WITH WOOD?! ARE YOU STUPID?! WOOD KILLS VAMPIRES!"

Logan was silenced.

Everything went white.

"Well, well, Kayla. I must say, you look horrible." said a deep voice.

"Who are you?"

"My, isn't it a shame that a daughter doesn't know who her own father is?"

"Well, you can't blame me. I've never met you before, so of coarse I wouldn't recognize you."

"You have a point." he laughed.

"Is this a vision….or am I actually here?"

"You are here through your mind, but your body is still where it was left."

"Am I going to die?"

"No."

"Then why does the wood hurt so bad?"

"Apparently, there is only one type of wood that can actually cause you any pain, and Logan stabbed you with it."

"Can I teleport to here from my actual body?"

"Yes."

"Will I be able to go back?"

"Yes."

I was back in my body, and the splinters from the wood were making their way out of my body.

I stood up, and Klaus looked over at me.

"Kayla…"

"I'll come back…" I whispered.

I teleported back to my father.

"Now, what is going on?"

"There is a lot I need to tell you, Kayla."

"Like what?"

"Well, for starters, your name isn't Kayla. It's Victoria. The family you thought was yours is not. I kept you there to protect you for as long as I could. Logan's real name is Alexander. He is your half-brother. Your mother carried him, but she had an affair with another man. She betrayed us, Victoria. You will soon discover your entire past, that is for you to find out, not for me to tell you."

I nodded.

"You have your room here, if you would like to go there and discover for yourself, you may. In time, your brother will be here. Be ready."

I teleported to my room, and sat down on my bed.

How was I taking everything so well?

The vampires, werewolves, powers, betrayals, secrets, all of it.

I closed my eyes and focused on my past.

My past?

Did I have lives before this?

I focused myself again.

"Analea! Come down here! I have something to tell you!" I yelled.

I was about 13 years old and I had discovered that I had powers.

I was down in a meadow wearing a pretty dress.

It seemed that I was in England, because I had an english accent.

I saw numbers, 1314.

England, 1314.

I was 700 years old?

Another girl who seemed to be Analea ran down to the meadow.

There was a small pond and I knew what I was going to show her.

"I have something very important to tell you, I don't want you to be scared. Okay?"

She nodded.

"Well, I'm a witch, Ana."

She took it really well.

"You know how air makes water move?"

She nodded again.

"Watch this."

I focused on air and it started blowing all around me.

I pushed it towards the water and huge waved started forming.

A wave swung around towards our direction and splashed all over the both of us.

"Ana- I didn't mean-"

"AHH! THIS WAS JUST MADE FOR ME TODAY AND NOW IT'S RUINED! VICTORIA! THIS IS YOUR FAULT!"

"I didn't mean to get water all over you…"

"I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU MEANT! IT ALREADY HAPPENED!"

She started stomping towards the castle and suddenly I got very angry.

I started stomping after her and dark storm clouds rolled in and it started pouring.

"ANALEA! COME BACK!" I screamed.

Lightning bolts started cracking everywhere.

But they were different.

They were blue!

I caught up to her and grabbed her wrist.

She swatted me off of her.

"GET OFF ME! YOU- YOU- YOU FREAK!" she screamed.

She started running until I cracked a bolt at her.

She was down in seconds.

I just realized what I did.

I ran over to her body and started crying uncontrollably.

"ANA! ANA! ANALEA! YOU CAN'T BE DEAD! WAKE UP!"

I started shaking her body, but I already knew she was dead.

I saw a whole bunch of guards and knew automatically my mother was coming near.

My teeth started hurting really bad.

My throat started burning.

A circle of fire raised around me.

I heart Ana's heart start up again.

I knew it wouldn't last long unless I did something about it.

I could save her.

On instinct I went for her neck and two sharp canines replaced two of my teeth.

I bit, and started sucking.

I tried pulling away, but I couldn't.

More tears started pouring down my face.

I pulled away when I realized I sucked her dry.

My mother was by the circle and for some reason I got really angry.

I ran.

I sped away as fast as I could.

About 300 or so years later I was walking through the woods and found myself slammed up against a tree.

I was soon cut off by hearing a loud crash from downstairs.

I got off my bed and teleported back down and looked to see who it was.

Alexander.

"WHERE IS SHE?!" he yelled.

"Who, me?"

I walked in the room.

"WHAT IS GOING ON?!"

"Father, would you care to explain so I can finish up upstairs?"

"Go ahead."

"WAIT! KAYLA!"

"I don't answer to Kayla, it's Victoria."

I sped back upstairs and landed on my bed.

I was back up against the tree.

"You need somewhere to stay, little girl?"

Then everything went black.

I woke up in an unknown house, on someone's bed.

I found a note on the nightstand.

"As soon as you read this, walk down the hallway, take a left, and find the stairs. Go downstairs and I will explain everything. -Klaus"

Klaus?

Who was Klaus?

Nevermind that, I got up and did what the note said and found a man sitting on the couch.

He looked up and waved me over.

"Don't worry love, I won't hurt you."

I didn't feel I could trust him as much as he was letting on.

I sped towards the door, and it flew open before I could touch the knob.

"Niklaus, I believe I found your little friend trying to escape."

"Bring her here Elijah."

He grabbed my shoulders and guided me to the couch.

"So, your name is Victoria, is it not?"

"It is."

"Well, as I have just witnessed, you're a vampire. Correct?"

"I am."

"But there seems to be something different about her scent, Niklaus."

"Right you are, brother."

No, they're going to figure it out.

"What's so different about you, Victoria?"

Just then, another women walked in.

"What do you want Katherine?"

"I heard another voice and I just wanted it was."

"Well, now you have, so get out."

"But-"

"Katherine, the only reason why you're still alive is because it is against my brother's wishes to see you dead. If you do not get out now, I will go against his wishes and make that happen."

"Fine." she huffed.

She left, and Klaus looked back at me.

"Are you going to answer my question?"

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"Yes you do."

"I honestly don't understand what you mean about me being any different than a regular vampire."

"Answer me!" he slammed his fist on the table. "Or there will be consequences."

"What are you going to do? Chain me up and beat me repeatedly until I answer? I don't know what you're talking about."

"You know more than you're letting on, Victoria."

"Do I?" I smirked.

He immediately got up and was very angry.

He looked really scary.

I looked down at my hands and saw a sapphire ring on my finger.

"What's this?"

"Answer me first, sweetheart."

"Fine, you want to play it that way? I guess we both won't be getting our answers."

A second later I was up against the wall with his hand up against my throat.

It started hurting me really bad.

"S-stop!" I managed to get out.

I was struggling trying to get his hand off of my throat, but he had an iron grip.

He used his other hand to push mine down.

"Not until I get my answer, love."

I give up.

I guess he was going to find out sooner or later.

I grabbed his hand with my other and it started glowing red.

His hand starting burning and he let go.

He healed quickly, but looked surprised.

"Oh, so you have fire powers? No, no. That wouldn't be it. But what then?"

"You want to know so bad?! FINE! I'M. A. WITCH. HAPPY?!"

"Who made you this way?" he whispered.

"I don't know." I answered quickly.

"WHO MADE YOU THIS WAY?!" he yelled.

"I don't KNOW!" I yelled back.

"I was just born like this! I don't know how, or why, I JUST WAS."

I ran towards the door and took a step outside.

There stood Katherine.

"Trying to run, are we?"

"Move, Katherine."

She grabbed my forearm and started yelling.

"I got something for you Klaus! I got your little friend out here!"

I managed to get her grip off me, and I ran.

Fast.

Dark thunder clouds rolled in quickly.

I felt arms grip around me.

"I wouldn't run from Niklaus if I were you, Victoria."

Elijah.

Katherine caught up with him and sped right in front of me.

Thunder cracked loudly across the sky.

"Katherine, leave her alone. She's a witch."

"No, she's a vampire. I saw it."

I knocked Elijah off of me and cracked a blue lightning bolt and screamed.

It started pouring very fast, and very hard.

I ran again.

I found myself running through the middle of the woods.

I started to feel very thirsty.

I couldn't run anymore.

I just started crying.

I couldn't take anymore.

I was already upset with everyone.

I was just trying to find someone to drink, then got taken to that stupid house.

I met this man named Klaus, who obviously has anger issues, then I met this rude unladylike woman who went by the name of Katherine.

They all now know my secret, and now I'm in the middle of the woods, unable to do anything, and I'm thirsty.

Lightning was flashing everywhere and thunder was so loud it started to make my ears ring.

I ended up in a circle of fire, crying in the middle of a storm.

It all seemed so familiar.

I had tried to forget about it, but I was never able to.

Ana, the secret, the lightning, the fire, the death.

I heard someone walking near me despite the storm and I looked up.

"Just stay away, Klaus!"

He ignored my comment and kept walking on closer.

"I SAID STAY AWAY!" I screamed.

The fire went from orange to blue in seconds.

I couldn't stop thinking about what happened to Ana.

Klaus got inside my circle and started walking towards me.

"It's all my fault!" I cried.

"She's dead because of me.."

He leaned down and pulled me close.

He brushed the hair out of my face and looked at me.

"It's okay. Shhhh. It's not your fault. You didn't know what you were doing."

I calmed down a lot more when he said that.

The storm and fire died down, but the clouds stayed.

He pulled me up and started walking me back to the house.

"I'm sorry." I whispered.

"For?" he purred.

"For burning you earlier."

"It's okay. It was my fault you did it in the first place. I was taunting you."

We were back in the house and Elijah walked over.

"I see that you have found her, brother. May I say that I am surprised you went out in that storm to find her. I wonder why it came in so quickly."

"Me. I did it."

"Oh that was you who made it?" Katherine piped in.

I started glaring at her and she smirked.

"Were we interrupting a moment? Sorry, sorry. Carry on."

She walked away in arms with Elijah.

I rolled my eyes.

"Don't worry about her. She's always been that way. And, for a minute there, I thought we were having a moment."

"I'm sorry, she just gets me so angry."

"Victoria, there is something you should know. I have been trying to find you for years. But, you are very good at hiding."

"When did you start looking?"

"When you ran away. I saw you get up from the meadow, and you just ran. I saw you while I was hunting."

"Why did you want to look for me?"

"Well, I-I…. I don't know. I thought you were the most beautiful thing I've ever seen and I wanted to get to know you."

I blushed at that.

His smile went back to his neutral face and he stood up.

"I think you should go to bed. It's almost 3 in the morning. Plus, you created that storm so you're bound to need energy."

I got up and walked upstairs.

I shut my door and crawled into bed and started dreaming.
