Prologue:

It's hard to remember what it's like to be human. Innocent, fragile, young. In the thousand years that I have been alive, nineteen isn't much. What I do remember though, is joyus.

In the village I grew up in, there were two said to be human families. The rest were werewolf families. Although we weren't werewolves, living with them was a delight. We learned their culture, history and traditions. Long story short, I was a Mikaelson at heart.

The day that we became vampires was also the day that I became a werewolf. I killed someone, not on purpose, but I transformed into a wolf, it was painful but once it was done, it was the most freeing feeling in the world.

That day was the last time in a millennium that I was able to change into werewolf form.

That day was one of the last times I spoke to my parents.

That day we had to run far away from home and lose the only protection from the world that we had.

That day we made a vow, Always and Forever.

We never stayed in one place too long, the most we got was five years tops. We would magically appear in some random town stay for a short while and then magically disappear. Most of the time it was difficult.

The first time that we settled somewhere was around the year 1100. We all but kidnapped a boy named Lucien and lived in the court of lady Aurora and sir Tristen. While we were there we learned that we didn't have to be alone forever and we could create more vampires like us. Word traveled and after a few years we discovered that Mikael was coming to hunt Nik.

Then we decided that we were going to hide in plain sight and then, we learned about the five vampire hunters. Their goal was to get the cure for vampirism, we obviously didn't want that to happen as we started to love who we had become. Our plan didn't work and we learned about a special kind of dagger that Nik keeps with him at all times, just in case Elijah, Finn, Kol or Bex disagrees with him. They can put any of them into a deep sleep.

There were many more small towns that we stayed in, we always came up with new names, stories and never stayed for long.

Around the year 1500 I decided that I needed some time on my own and I went to french court and had the time of my life with everyone there. I told them that I was from a noble family in England, no one questioned it. We danced and celebrated random things that I had no clue about. I had the time of my life.

While I was there, I got word from Nik that they found a doppelganger, but by the time I got there, she was already a vampire and Nik started on a quest to hunt her to the ends of the earth. I've never met Katerina Petrova but from what she sounds like, I will rip her heart out the moment we find her from all the trouble she caused us.

We followed her all across the world but never quite got her.

Early 1800's we came to the new world and started turning a small town into New Orleans. We met a slave boy and we gave him a family. Elijah taught him literature and everything that he knows. Nik decided to name him Marcellus. We were able to stay there for a while but eventually Mikael got word of us and we had to leave.

We never stayed anywhere for long after that until the 1920's. Chicago was beautiful then. We met another vampire there named Stefan Salvatore. Him and Bex hit it off and Nik loved him like a brother. All was good until yet again, Mikael came. We had to compel Stefan to forget all about us.

We spent the next century hunting Katerina and trying to break the curse that was placed on Nik and I.

Now we're all caught up and my tragic yet amazing life. It has its ups and downs. We got news of a new doppelganger so I was sent ahead of Nik to mystic falls
