'Potter, wake up. Potter!' The acerbic voice of the potions master of Hogwarts coaxed her out of the blissful dreamless sleep she had been having.

Opening her eyes she saw the pale face of the man she had hated for years but now had come to see as a father figure. The man who had done anything and everything to save her life . He had been a spy and a bodyguard that she had never known to have.

Seeing her opening her eyes in came a myriad of people. Her friends and members of the Order of Phoenix were in the room. She was lying on her bed in Grimmauld Palace. On the bed next to her was her Godfather but he looked different, younger somehow he looked both innocent and dangerous at the same time.

She reached his hand and with a gasp his eyes flew open.

He was shocked to see the grown up face of his Goddaughter and the presence of Severus Snape was a little unnerving for him.

'What happened? How am I here? What happened to you? When did you became a woman? You were a tiny little thing the last time I saw you... I was dead Bellatrix hit me with a curse.'

Seeing her Godfather alive and well she smothered him with a hug, tears rushed from her eyes as she said a silent prayer to her Grandfather, thanking him for returning her Godfather back.

Sirius being the impatient man he was he demanded answers.

So, she told him everything thing, from the moment he died to moment the moment I last remembered. The proof that my meeting with my Grandfather was real were the three rings on my fingers. She grazed the rings with the fingers of her left hand, each stone gave out a distinct flavour of power.

She could feel thrumming of power, her power, she could taste the air around her, the water molecules in the air and could see that her Godfather's aura, which showed a bright green colour resembling the gem on her finger.

The room was empty except for Sirius and Severus, Severus had ushered the others out of the room wanting to give them privacy, and no one argued with the dour acerbic tongued former Potions Master who now had been turned into a vampire.

A dying Severus was found by a hungry vampire who had fed Severus his blood, the vampire was killed by Hermione but the damage was done.

The excruciating process of his transformation took a week in which he was under the care of the hawk-eyed Madam Pomfrey. It had been a chore to adjust to the bloodlust but he was nothing but a perfectionist. He took being a vampire as a challenge, he had mastered the bloodlust in a month and with his newly found reflexes he had turned into a deadly opponent. The Death eaters found out about his living status when he fought Bellatrix, him killing her was a huge blow to the Dark forces.

He had been a great support to her in the past years, after the deaths of Remus and Tonks she had taken the responsibility of raising baby Teddy. The toddler knew her as his only parent figure. Andromeda had died a year before. She had passed away in her sleep.

Severus and Sirius were all she had along with Teddy, the war had strained her relations with the Weasleys, death of Fred had made Ron resentful and angry, he could no longer look at her without having rage in his eyes. In his hatred he had ignored Hermione and that made her resentful. After years of tip toeing around one another they finally kiss but she ruins their chance by letting the Dark Lord escape.

'I want to leave. This place eats me now. For all intents and purposes the three of us are immortal, soon he public will recover and the cotton headed heads of the Ministry wold demand that our powers be sanctioned. I want to take teddy and the two of you and leave.'

'But what about your friends? Wont you miss them?' asked Sirius.

'I will miss Luna and Neville but they can always visit. Siri, I have grown closed to Draco and Narcissa over the years, he was bitten by Grayback to punish Lucius for deserting them at Hogwarts and he had his vampires to change Narcissa, I took him and Narcissa in after he died at the hands of Voldemort. They are staying here as well. I know he too would be receptive of the idea of moving away from Britain with us.'

'Ok, we will get back at you being close to Draco but what do you mean that I am immortal?'

'I don't know but your aura is the same as a person who is touched by death. It is same as mine. Let me try something.'

She takes his hands in hers. Closing her eyes, she focuses on his magic on his soul.

His soul is the same bright colour as it should be but it is tinged with a deep purple colour, swirls of blue mixed with the gold of the soul. She tried to reach that purple colour when she was assaulted with the images, in rapid progression she saw a man, he had the same black curls as Sirius, he was holding a glass of deep red wine.

Dionysus.

'You are blessed by a God!' she exclaimed.

'What? Which one?'

'Dionysus.'

At that Severus let out a snort of laughter.

'Why is that funny?' Sirius asked.

'Of course, you are blessed by the God famous for turning mortal insane.' he quipped.

'What?'

'Dionysus is a Greek god; he is a son of Zeus. He is the God of wine and madness; he had the power to transform into animals. It is not only you but your entire bloodline that is blessed by him. You were in the veil where for all intents and purposes you were dead but now that you are out it seems that Dionysus had transferred his godly status and powers to you, the last male of the bloodline blessed by him.'

'But... but what does it mean?'

'It means, congratulations you are a God now.'

Severus not being able to help himself let out a groan.

'Now all the mutt will do is introduce himself as a God.'

All three of them let out laughs at the thought. It was very likely that a de-aged Sirius Black who looked like he was twenty-six years old would go up to women introducing himself as the God of Wine.

'Are you sure, you want to leave?' Sirius asked.

'Yes. I had it planned before I went to fight Voldemort. All that is left is for you to pick yourself up and for us to leave.'

'We leave now?'

'The less people who know about your return from the dead the better.'

'What about preparations?'

'Draco and me have been preparing for a year now. We have employed goblins to invest in various muggle operations, Draco had been taking business law classes in Oxford. I know! I was surprised as well. Almost all our gold in converted into muggle money. With the Malfoy, Black and Potter account along with all the royalties Severus has from his potions businesses we are probably the richest family on earth.'

'I can't believe you think of the Malfoy as family.'

'We will all share a family name Sirius; I suggest you get all of your wise cracks out of the way before you see Draco and Aunt Cissy.'

'She lets you call her Cissy?'

'Of course. She is extremely fond of me. Draco says it is because she always wanted a daughter and I am the closest thing she has to one.'

'Yay, we will be a happy family of immortal beings. Where will we go?'

'We will go to America. Draco has set up his office in the city of Chicago but we will not live there. The city is huge and it would be impossible for him to change during the full moons. We will go to Chicago first and then we will fly to our new home.'

'Where is our new home?'

'In a small town called Mystic Falls. It's in Virginia, Potters have a huge mansion there, the backyard extends into the forest. The house has Cissy's approval. It is huge, three floors, a ballroom, three studies, a potions lab for Sev, ten bedrooms and a swing set for Teddy. It is a small town; it should be peaceful to stay there. I can use some peace.'

'When do we leave?'

'Tomorrow.'

They spent the rest of the day packing all that they needed. Winky and Kreacher along with the Malfoy elves Hoppy, Tippy and Sneezy (named by a four-year-old Draco) moved the remaining books of the Black library.

Next morning Sirius was handed a wallet by Draco, it was filled with American Muggle money and a new identity and bank cards and a mobile phone.

Narcissa and Severus Black along with their children Draco, Sirius (Severus made grand declarations of grounding him over every small infraction) and Aurora Black, and little Edward "Teddy" Black.

They had to travel by muggle airplane but Draco being Draco had bought a state-of-the-art private plane. Teddy ran across the plane looking out of the small window trying to catch the clouds his eyes changing colours due to the excitement.

After a nine-hour long flight they exited the Mid-way Airport, a sleepy Teddy carried by Aurora. The six of them were received by town cars hired by the company; the Black Enterprises.

Malfoys had a townhouse in the city. A seven-bedroom house was equipped with the floo network which was only accessible by the floo in their house in Mystic Falls, Draco would use this for visiting the office along with Severus.

Exhausted by the long flight they all picked a room to rest, the elves cleaned the kitchen and prepared dinner.

. . .

. . .

. . .

. . .

Opening the door of the truck he was greeted by the famed Chicago skyline. He liked this city; it was no New Orleans but it had its charms.

His quest to make hybrids was an epic failure, he needed answers and he needed them now, Gloria was the only witch he thought to be powerful enough to find the solution after the pesky Salvatore had killed Maddox.

There was something different about the city today. He was the Original Hybrid, son of one of the most powerful witches to ever exist, he could feel the change in the air. It was like the city held something greater in its grasp, a power that was not here before.

He wanted to know what it was but like always his desire for hybrids trumped everything else.

. . .

. . .

. . .

He had just un-daggered Rebekah and now he was sitting in the bar thinking of the conversation he had with Gloria in the morning.

'There is something different here. Do you feel it.'

'I do.'

'What do your witchy senses tell you?'

'Did you feel something a few days ago?'

Klaus remembering the wave of power he had felt while he was making his failed Hybrids.

'Yes, I did. What was it?'

'Something greater'

'Does that something greater have a name?'

'All I know is that something powerful came into being, I don't know what or who it is but if the power was felt that far and wide it means all supernatural beings felt it. Something greater is here in my city. I want to know what it is and I will.'

'Well darling when you do let me know.'

His peace was disturbed by a the pesky Salvatore.

. . .

. . .

. . .

Shopping with his sister was making his head soft. Stefan had already bailed, with a glass of champagne in one hand he waited for Rebekah as she tried outfits after outfits.

It was then he saw her, the only word that came into his mind after seeing her was unearthly. She was beautiful no doubt but she had an aura of power surrounding her it was so thick it suffocated him, the men accompanying her were as different as sun and moon. A dark haired man who shared her aura but on a lesser scale and the fair haired man who if nose was right which was always was a werewolf.

In here arms was a boy, the little man could be not more than five years of age. She commanded the room as she took the seat in front of him adjusting the toddler in her lap.

Her musical voice issuing commands to both the shopping assistants and the two men. They jumped into action following her commands.

The black haired man needed a complete wardrobe, the assistants led the men to clothes.

She played with the child only glancing his way once but her shoulders stiffened when their eyes met. It was enough for gin to gather that she knew that he was no mortal.

But still she ignored him trying not to meet his eyes which were fixed on her. Her power was intoxicating, his wolf wanted to come out and parade in front of her, he did not understand that, his attention was diverted by his bravery sister.

'Nik, how is this one?' she asked coming out of the changing room in an unflattering dress in burnt orange. Wanting the shopping from hell to be over he opened his mouth to utter a compliment but he was beaten by the woman in front of him.

'This is so not your colour sweetie, why don't you try something in red, you will look divine in it.' She said in a British accent.

Rebekah's face went through many different emotions, first was indignation the next was a little relief in receiving good fashion advice.

In a small voice which was completely uncharacteristic of her she asked.

'Will you help me?'

'Sure.'

With that the two of them strode away followed by the little boy.

They came back with their arms full of clothes with a smile his sister went into the changing room leaving them alone.

Seeing an opportunity he took his chance to talk to her.

'You just made her day love.'

She turned his side with a smile on her lips and raised an eyebrow at his comment.

'Do you love your sister?' she asked.

He did not expect that question.

'Yes, I do. Why do you ask?'

'Well because you never give a girl bad fashion advice unless you hate her. That orange did not look good on her. Why did you lie?'

He let out a laugh at that.

'Oh, my love, I have been here for two hours . She does not know how to choose a outfit. I just wanted to get out of here.'

She smiled at him, her smile made him smile.

'I am Niklaus Mikelson, call me Klaus.'

'Aurora Black.'

He kissed her outstretched hand. His hand tingled with magic holding her hand. She was a witch an exceptionally powerful one at that.

'Who is this little one? Your son?'

'No, this is my brother, Teddy. Say hi Ted.'

The little boy smiled and put out his hand to shake, touching the boy he could see his eyes flash golden before settling back to green like his sister's.

His attention was broken by a shout.

'Roro, the dragon is angry at me. He might burn me alive.'

The black haired man said as he went to take cover behind Aurora. The fair haired man came to them with an angry expression on his face.

'I am going home Aurora. I have work to do, the office needs me, u have picked up the respectable clothing for the mutt the rest of the punk outfits he can buy by himself.'

Kissing her cheeks and the boys and flipping the other man he walked away.

He raised an eyebrow at that.

She snorted.

'That is my brother Draco, the dragon and this my other Brother Sirius, he is never serious.'

The dark haired man made an over exaggerated face of disappointment. The little boy giggled making him believe that these shenanigans were a common occurrence.

'Sirius this is Niklaus Mikelson.'

Hearing his name the man had a knowing glint in his eyes.

'Roro let's leave I need at least six leather jackets before we move into the house. It's my signature look. All the clothes the dragon picked are preppy. I need t-shirts, boots and jeans. Also please talk to dad I don't want to go to the office, the dragon and him are enough to make the people freeze in fear. If I go they will have to have fun and you know how much these two are reluctant in having fun. Roro! Listen to me stop laughing and you too Teddy bear stop laughing or I will have no wolf time for a week.'

That odd comment made the little boy stop laughing but the little devil with tear filled eyes looked at his sister who glared at the man.

'Siri! Stop fighting with a five year old. Of course Teddy bear you will have your wolf. Let the mutt say what he wants.'

The black haired man muttered under his breath about losing to a child.

Aurora turned to him and gave a smile.

'It was nice meeting you and your sister. Hope we meet again Nik.'

With a wave of her hand she was out of the store followed by enough shopping bags to satisfy even his sister. The three siblings entered a black tinted town car and drove away.

It was then that Rebekah exited the changing room dressed in a pair of shorts and blouse.

'Where did she go?'

'Home.'

'Nik, did you feel her power?'

'I did. She is something we have never encountered neither is brother. She has two more brothers they are werewolves, both of them.'

'I hope we meet again. She was different. I liked her.' She said in a quiet voice.

He hoped he met her again too. She soothed the beast inside him and made him feel invulnerable.

Aurora Black.

He knew she was rich, her family had their own company and that she did not live here.

He will find her once his Hybrids are made because they were essential in defeating Mikel. Only when he was dead, his siblings could truly live.
