Yay! Another chapter. It's quicker than the last update...you can thank the good reviews and that I binge watched TVD season 6 on netflix over 4 days and currently have 8 episodes left of The Originals season 2.

~ Both shows have given me ideas for Jessica's past and present...which hopefully you'll be able to catch what I did. If you did...please leave a review on what they are so I know you found them.

~ I actually have muse for this and I'm trying to also update Behind The Scars...which takes place in TVD season 4.

ENJOY!

~General POV~
~Flashback~

A girl in her late teens was walking alone in the dark. She was just shunned from her coven for using dark magic. She didn't need them as long as she could still use her magic, she was okay. The girl decided to use a shortcut through some woods to get back to her house. There was a noise, which made her turn around. When she looked, there was no one there. She sighed and continue walking.

After a few minutes, she started hearing noises again.
"Where are you going Blondie?" A man asked, appearing in front of her. The girl rolled her eyes.
"I just had a bad day." She said. "Leave me alone." She started to walk around him, but he caught her arm. "I said, leave me alone." She used her magic to create a spark between her arm and his hand.
"You're a witch?" He asked and she became quiet. "I quite admire witches." The girl scoffed. "What's your name?"
"Why do you want to know?" She asked.
"Because I'm Kol..." He held out his hand to the girl.
"Jessica." The girl eventually said and shook Kol's hand. "Now leave me alone." Jessica said before walking away. Kol just smiled as he watched Jessica leave.

~End Of Flashback~

~Jessica's POV~

I yawned as I opened my eyes. We were driving in Chicago...a city I haven't been in for years. 'I miss you Kol' I think to myself, realizing I had dreamt of the first time I met him. 'When I was blonde ' I think and look to see Stefan had fallen asleep. I smile a little, forgetting about Kol for a moment. It had been at least a year since I saw Stefan sleeping. 'He looks so peaceful' I think to myself with a small smile.
"You can't have both." Klaus said, which scared me.
"Don't you think I know that?" I asked him. He was sitting in the front passenger seat. I move and slap the back of his head, which woke Stefan up. "Sorry." I said to Stefan. "Klaus earned a slap."
"Can you do it again so I can see it?" Stefan asked and I couldn't help but chuckle. I go to slap Klaus again, but he stops me this time.
"Don't think about it luv." He said to me and I pout. "I will get you when Stefan's looking." I tell Klaus and take the starbucks I bought and took a sip. It was cold, but I didn't care.

After a hour, we finally pull into a warehouse. I was the first to jump out, mainly because I was feeling the effects of the caffeine. I stretch my legs as Stefan and Klaus step out.
"Welcome back to Chicago Stefan." Klaus said as he went to open up some doors.
"That feels so good." I say, feeling the night air.
"What are we doing here?" Stefan asked.
"Why are we here late at night?" I asked Klaus as I walk towards the door.
"It's four in the morning." Klaus said to me before looking at Stefan. "I know how much you love it here. Bringing back memories of the good old ripper days?" I close my eyes, remembering what Stefan was like back then. The first time I met him he was a ripper.
"Blacked out most of them." Stefan said as he stood by us. "A lot of blood. A lot of partying."
"A lot of them with me." I say with a smile to Stefan. "It's when we met, remember?" Stefan smiled.
"Chicago was magical." Klaus said after a few minutes to interrupt me and Stefan looking at each other.
"I'll take your word for it." Stefan said. "Like I said, I don't remember most of it."
"Lets get down to business then." Klaus said.
"Yeah, like why are we here?" I ask Klaus.
"We're going to see my second favorite witch." Klaus said as he looked at me. His family knew about my secret, but I didn't tell anyone else. Not even Stefan. I just give Klaus a small smile before he started going back to the car.
"I'll meet you there." I said to Klaus. "I need to get more caffeine." Stefan started to go back to the car as I closed the door of the warehouse. I sped out as they left.

I stopped at a McDonalds and got some breakfast for me, Stefan, and Klaus. Then I stopped at Starbucks and got a drink before heading to the bar I knew they would be at. 'They must not be here yet' I think to myself and after a few minutes, they walk in behind me.
"Looks familiar, doesn't it?" Klaus asked as I handed them what I bought them. "Only a hashbrown?" He asked me.
"Fine...here..." I gave him a muffin thing that I got him. I gave Stefan what I got him and he didn't put up a fuss of what I got him.
"I can't believe this place is still here." Stefan said and I smiled.
"Same with me." I said as I looked around. "It's barely changed."
"You've got to be kidding me." We all turn to see Gloria walking towards us.
"So a hybrid walks into a bar, says to the bartender..." Klaus starts to say.
"Oww...that bar hurt." I finish Klaus's sentence and laugh a little.
"You may be invincible, but you're not funny." Gloria said to Klaus, then look to me. "Her on the other hand, she's hilarious." I smile.
"Thanks Gloria." I say with a smile.
"Gloria's a very powerful witch." Klaus said to Stefan.
"I can slow the aging down. Some herbs and spells." Gloria said. "But it'll catch up someday."
"Stefan, why don't you fix us something to drink?" Klaus asked Stefan.
"Sure thing." Stefan said and I decided to follow him.

"Remember when I made you dance right over there?" I ask Stefan with a smile as I pointed to the middle. He smiled.
"That was the first time I saw you drunk." He said as he poured some drinks.
"And the first time I saw you smile." I said. "Even if it wasn't a real smile." I said, knowing he was still a ripper at the time. Out the corner of my eye, I see pictures that Gloria had. I go around the bar and start looking at them. There was one of me and Stefan, but then I saw one of Stefan and Klaus. 'Did they know each other?' I ask myself and looked towards Klaus. That's when Stefan took the picture from my hand and looked at it. I heard Rebecca's name and I tried to think of why they would need her.
"What is this?" Stefan asked Klaus, going towards him with the picture.
"Well, I told you Stefan...Chicago is a magical place." Klaus answered and I took a sip from the glass Stefan poured.
"But this is me...with you." Stefan said and I walked to his side to look at the picture again.
"You still look pretty hot." I said to Stefan, hoping his expression would change. No one said anything as Klaus walked out. I sighed and drank the rest of the glass. "You look good Gloria." I said to her before following Klaus out.

I followed Klaus back to the warehouse and I knew Stefan was following me.
"This doesn't make sense...why don't I remember you?" Stefan asked Klaus.
"You said it yourself..." Klaus began to say "...that time was filled with a lot of dark holes."
"No...if you knew me, why didn't you say anything?" Stefan asked.
"I'm a little busy right now." Klaus said. "Memory Lane will have to wait." I grabbed Klaus's wrist to stop him. We both look at where I held him and I knew he felt it to. I quickly take my hand away, not having done that to him since before I turned.
"What the hell is going on Klaus?" Stefan asked, which shook me out of my thoughts.
"Lets just say we didn't get off to a brilliant start." Klaus said as he looked to Stefan. "To be honest, I hated you. You were making out with my sister..."
"Rebecca?" I couldn't help but ask and look at Stefan. "I could see it." I said, but then felt a little jealous.
"Your sister?" Stefan asked Klaus. "So I knew another Original vampire?"
"If you can't handle it, don't ask." He said and went towards a coffin. When he opened it, I saw Rebecca. I couldn't help but smile at her because I missed her. 'That means Kol...' I start looking around as Stefan and Klaus talk.

I walked away and felt drawn to one of the coffins. After a few minutes, I opened it and gasped. 'Kol...' I think and kneel down. I cup his face and run my thumb across his cheek. The last time I saw him was in 1914 when Klaus daggered him that Christmas. '96 years...' I smile a little and can't help but look at the dagger. I look back at Kol's face, wanting him to wake and call me darling like he used to. My hand found it's way to the dagger, but before I could pull it out, Klaus forced me off. He held me against the wall.
"You are not pulling the dagger out!" He yelled at me.
"You didn't have to dagger him in the first place Nik!" I shout back and send him flying. He got up and looked mad. We fought for a while. I managed to break his nose and he broke my wrist.
"The last time I checked, you ran when I daggered him." Klaus yelled and I glared at him. I speed towards him, but he dodged me. He held my neck from behind. "You could never take me in a fight." He said before snapping my neck.

~Flashback (1914)~

I was standing in front of a mirror, looking at my reflection. Rebecca and I did shopping and she picked out a nice dark purple dress for me.
"You look beautiful darling." I smile and turn towards Kol. He was leaning on the doorway, looking at me with his normal smile.
"I can say the same about you." I said and he walked in. I cup his face and kiss him.
"Have I mentioned I like you better with black hair?" He asked me.
"I liked the blonde hair the best." I said with a smile and kiss his cheek. "At least black hides blood better." Kol smiled and pulled out a necklace.
"Merry Christmas." I smile and let him put it on my neck. "Beautiful." I blush and look at us together in the mirror.
"I love you." I said as I felt his hands on my hips. I close my eyes and take in the feeling of his touch. He started kissing my neck. My heart started to quicken as I felt him press up against me.
"Kol..." We heard Elijah say. Kol groaned and reluctantly stopped, turning towards his brother. "The party is starting." Elijah looked at me for a moment. "Please don't distract my brother for much longer." I smile a little and watch him leave. I look at Kol.
"Will you dance with me?" I ask him and he put his arm out. I smile and hook my arm in his as we walk to the party.
~End Of Flashback~

I wake up to the smell of blood. I groan and slowly sit up. As I look around, I see a dead security guard on the ground.
"Jessica?" I look to see Rebecca, still in her dress. I smile and get up to hug her.
"It's been a long time." I say, then we hear the doors.
"Rebecca, it's your big brother." We hear after a moment. Rebecca put her finger on her lips, telling me to be quiet. "Come out come out wherever you are." Klaus continued. She showed me the dagger before she sped.
"Go to hell Nik!" I hear Rebecca. I sped and saw that she had stabbed Klaus with it. I could feel Stefan look at me as Klaus took out the dagger and let it drop to the floor.
"Don't pout." Klaus said as he looked at his sister. "You knew it wouldn't work."
"Yeah, but I was hoping it would hurt more." Rebecca said and she started to walk towards me.
"I understand you're upset with me Rebecca, so I'm going to let that go..." Klaus stepped in front of Rebecca, blocking her path "...just this once. I brought a peace offering." Klaus turned towards where Stefan was. "You can come in." Stefan started walking in and I couldn't help but look at Rebecca. I knew the look in her eyes and could tell that she cared for Stefan. It made me feel a little jealous because I also cared for Stefan. 'And Kol' I think to myself as Klaus went up to Stefan. "Now you Remember." Stefan looked from Rebecca to Klaus.
"I remember you. We were friends."
"We are friends." Klaus said and went back over to Rebecca.
"And now to the reason you're here." Klaus said. "Gloria says you know how to contact the Original witch."
"The Original witch?" Rebecca asked. "What the bloody hell do you need to talk to her for?"
"Do you have what Gloria needs?" Klaus asked, ignoring Rebecca's question. I saw her reach for her neck and that's when I remembered she used to have a necklace on. 'Wait a sec...' I think I remember seeing the necklace. The last time I saw it was in 1914 when I saw Rebecca last.

Rebecca started freaking out and I couldn't help but hold the necklace I was wearing. It was the last thing I got from Kol before Klaus daggered him that Christmas. I tried to remember if Rebecca told me anything about the necklace before I remembered. 'Her mom gave it to her' I think and held Stefan's hand out of reflex. I looked at Stefan and he looked at me.
"This is the Original family for you." I said to him, knowing more about them than he did.

~ If you caught what I did...please tell me. I'd be really happy if people were able to catch what I did.

~ I know Rebecca's name is supposed to be spelled Rebekah, but I like spelling it 'Rebecca'. Please don't bug me about the spelling, I've already had way too many people do that.
