Anyway, hope you all enjoy

Chapter 6

"Isabella," I turned around and saw a woman in a red dress a couple feet away. Her back turned to me. She turned around and I saw it was Isabella. She turned with her evil smile. Her eyes flickering across the room.

I looked around and saw that I was at a party. Every woman there wore beautiful silk dresses and almost every man wore a soldier's uniform the others were wearing black suits. There was a band with pianos and violins and other instruments. Champagne was coming from every direction. I looked at the banner that held above the band that read

New Year's 1942

"Isabella," A woman walked passed me in a green dress. She walked up to Isabella and grabbed her arm with both hands and turned her body facing me. It was Marisol. She gave Isabella and big smile and Isabella gave her a small smile back. "Come, there is somebody I want you to meet," Still holding onto Isabella's arm, she dragged her across the room. I followed. Pushing pass a lot of people, Marisol finally stopped and let go of Isabella. "Isa, I'd like to introduce you to an old friend of mine," She turned and looked at a man whose back was turned to her. "Niklaus"

I froze. I didn't know who this man was but when I looked at Isabella, I saw fear in her eyes. I looked back at the man. He was facing his back towards us. I then saw the feet starting to turn and then the body and then-

I rose from my bed and started breathing heavily. I rubbed my face and picked up my phone to check the time.

9:03.

There was then a knock on my door. "Come in!" I called. The door creaked open and Elena's head popped out. "Hey," She said. "You ok? I heard you…get up"

"Um…yeah. Just…a bad…dream"

"The visions?" I nodded. "I thought they were gone?"

"No…they've just recently come back"

"And Isabella is always in them?" I nodded again. "Well, at least she's in the cellar. She won't bother us anymore"

"Yeah…I guess"

"Anyway, Stefan called. He wants us to come over. He says it's important"

"Ok, I'll get dress"

Elena gave me and nod and then exited the room.

We flashed in front of the Salvatore Boarding house. Elena and I looked at each other before I knocked on the door. Seconds later, the door opened and Damon stood there and gave us a quick smile. "Hello Alex, Elena" Damon said.

"Is Stefan here?" Elena asked. "He called. He said it was important"

"Right this way" He took a step back and Elena and I walked threw the door.

"Hey" Both of us turned and saw Stefan walking down the hall towards us with his hands in his pockets.

"Stefan," I said. "What's going on? Why did you call?" He took a step aside and at the end of the hallway, was Rose the one that kidnapped us. I glared at her. "You" Elena and I said at the same time. She gave us a small smile and a wave.

They took us to the living room and Elena and I sat on the couch in front of the fire place. Damon stood behind the couch to the right of us. Stefan sat on the couch to the left of us and Rose talked to us pacing back and forth in front of the fire place. "Ok," Rose said. "You have to understand. I only know what I've picked up over the years and I don't know what's true and what's not true. It's the problem with all the vampire crap but Klaus, I know he's real"

"Klaus?" I asked. "I…I heard the name before," I turned and looked at Elena. "He was in my vision"

"You're having more visions?" Stefan asked. I turned my head to him and nodded. "Last night, I saw Isabella and," I looked at Rose. "Marisol. Marisol was introducing Isabella to Klaus but…I never got to see his face"

"Marisol," Rose said. "Is really good friends with Klaus"

"How?"

"I wouldn't know. Marisol, Trevor, Is…and I might have made a deal with each other but Marisol only shared her secrets with one person," I gave her a funny look. "Isabella. They met years after I met Marisol but…when she met Isabella, they became…sisters"

"But why wasn't she here with Isabella when she crashed town?" Damon asked.

"That I don't know"

"Who is the one that wanted to deliver me to Elijah?" I asked.

"I can't tell you"

"Why not?"

"Because we made a vow not to tell anyone. Sorry"

"Will Isabella know"

"Oh yeah, she'll know"

"Anyway," Elena said. "Back to topic, whose Klaus?"

"He's one of the originals," Damon said. "He's a legend"

"On of the first generation of vampires" Stefan said.

"Like Elijah?" Elena asked.

"No," Rose said. "Elijah was the Easter bunny compared to Klaus. He's a foot solider. Klaus is the real deal"

"Klaus," Stefan said. "Is known to be the oldest"

"Okay," Elena said. "So you're saying that the oldest vampire in the history of time is coming after me?"

"And me?" I asked.

"Yes" Rose said.

"No" Stefan said.

"What they're saying is," Damon said. "I mean, if what she's saying is true-"

"Which it is" Rose cut him off.

"And you're saying it so we don't kill you-"

"Which I'm not"

"Then we're looking at a solid…maybe"

"Look," Stefan said as he walked over and sat beside me. "Elijah's dead, right? So no one else even knows that you exist"

"Not that you know of" Rose said.

"That's not helping" Damon whispered to her.

"Look," Stefan said. "I've never even met anyone whose laid eyes on him. I mean, we're talking centuries of truth mixed with fiction. We don't know if he's real. For all we know he could just be some sort of stupid bed time story"

"He's real," Rose said as she got out of her seat. "And he doesn't give up. If he wants something, he gets it. If you're not afraid of Klaus, then you're an idiot"

"Alright, we're shaking. You made your point" Damon said.

Elena and I looked at each other and stayed like that for a couple of seconds. She knew exactly what I was thinking. I gave her a nod and then we both got up from the couch and walked over to the entrance.

"Where are you going?" Stefan asked.

I gave him a funny look. "What do you think?" I asked. "It's 8 a.m. on a Wednesday morning? No where else I can really go?" He gave me another weird look. I rolled my eyes. "School"

"Let me," he said as he pushed himself off the couch. "Grab my stuff, I'll go with you"

"We'll be fine," I said. "I have my wand with me; I'll just flash the both of us there. Come on, Elena" We both turned and walked out of the Boarding house.

"Guys, please don't make me do this" Caroline pleaded the both of us. We we're walking over to the tomb where Katherine stayed.

Elena had a bag with her that carried blankets, bottles of blood and her Petrova book. I had the same but with my Giordano book. Elena and I both agreed that we both should ask our doppelgangers about Klaus and how this all started but we needed Caroline's help. She had to make sure Stefan or Damon or anyone else for that matter found out about this. Caroline first had to help us open the tomb and then we'd leave Elena there. I was going to flash myself to the basement of the Boarding house and talk to Isabella in the cellar.

"Tell everyone," Elena said to Caroline as we walked over to the tomb. "We weren't feeling well and I went home instead of school"

"Tell them its food poisoning" I said.

"I can't believe," Caroline said. "I'm agreeing to this. I'm a terrible liar"

"Oh and whatever you do, keep Stefan busy. If he finds out about this, he'll burst"

"I'm even worse at duplicity and you two know this"

"Did you give this exact same speech to Katherine?"

"She threatened me. Different story. Not that I'm saying that you should use that as a tactic, it's…Stefan's going to see right threw me"

"Caroline," Elena said. "As my friend, do you promise or not?"

Caroline sighed and she leaned back and forth "You had to break you the girlfriend cod. Okay, I promise"

"Okay" Elena then walked down the steps of the tomb and Caroline and I followed.

"Why don't you guys want Stefan to know?"

"Because," I said. "He'll say 'It's too dangerous, you're going to get yourself killed'," I said as I imitated his voice. "It's better if he just doesn't know"

We got down to the tomb and saw the tomb door closed by a giant, heavy door. "Are you sure you want to do this?" Caroline asked Elena.

"Yes," Elena said. "I'm sure. She's the only one who knows the truth about Klaus. The only one who can tell me how to stop him"

"But you're asking for the truth from someone who's probably never giving it. Are you sure about this?"

"Yes, I just can't sit back and wait. I have to know, Caroline. Please"

Caroline looked between the door and Elena before finally making her decision. She walked towards the tomb and pulled the door back. Elena slowly walked towards the tomb. It was dark and damp and we couldn't see anyone down there.

"Katherine?" Elena called out. Nobody responded. Elena turned around and looked at us. "I'll be okay form here" We then heard something in the tomb. It sounded…rusty. Like something was sliding against the ground. Elena turned her head and looked at the entrance. Then in the light, we saw a bare foot slide in and then another.

We then could see Katherine. She limped over and fell into the wall. She looked bad. Her hair was a wreck, there were black circles around her eyes and her skin was grey" "Hello Elena" Katherine said in a groggy voice. "You come to watch me wither away? Goodbye Alex and Caroline"

I glared at her. Elena turned her head and looked at Caroline and me. "As long as I stay on this side of the door," Elena said. "She can't hurt me," Caroline looked at Elena and gave her a funny look. "Please"

"Ok," I said. I walked over and gave Elena a hug. She hugged me back. "Let me know what she says"

"I will. You'll let me know what Isabella says?"

"Every word. We'll I guess I should go see the other bitch," I said as I smiled at Katherine. She glared at me. "Come on, Caroline" Caroline and I walked up the stairs of the tomb and stood outside. "Ok," I said. "I'm going to go. Promise you won't say anything"

"I promise" she said.

I gave her a nod before taking my wand out of my boot and flashed myself. I stood at the entrance of the basement. I walked out to the cellar and peaked in. "Isabella" I called.

I kept looking until she jumped to the door and I jumped back and fell on the ground. She laughed. "Scared you didn't I" She said with a smile.

I glared at her and I got up. "Isn't it a bad idea to be using this much energy when you're weak"

"It's different when you're a wizard vampire. Why are you here?"

"Shouldn't you know? I mean, you always know"

"My wizard powers use more energy then my vampire powers, so, I've just been a plan old vampire. Now, why are you here?"

"I came to ask you some questions?"

"Oh really?"

"If you want, I can open the door and we can talk"

She smiled. "Ok" She backed up into the darkness. I opened the door and opened it. She stood there with a smile and ran up to the door but then crashed into the force field and flew back and hit the back wall.

"It's called Ostium protegntis omnes alica," I said. "The door that protects all spell. Kind of like the spell Emily Bennett used on the tomb in 1864"

"I know the spell!" Isabella screamed as she got up from the ground and walked back to the door.

"Look, I came to ask you questions about my family and…Klaus"

A smile formed on her face. "Oooh, so you found out about the big 'K' already. That must be a shocker. What are you're big Salvatore brothers going to do about it?"

"They don't know. So far, we only know about how Elena's involved in the Sun and the Moon curse. We don't know about me yet but…Stefan said you had a clue. You told him at Mayor Lockwood's funeral," Isabella smiled.

I pulled out the big lamp out of my bag and place it beside the door and then I pulled out the big olive green book out of my bag. Isabella's eyes opened wide. "Now, I've read threw this billions and billions of times but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. This book says that the Giordano family carried on threw you're sister, Marinetta, since you 'died'…but…that can't true since we look a like," Isabella rolled her eyes and let out a sigh. "You going to tell me"

"You think, just because you're bringing stuff up from my human life is going to make me all warm and fuzzy and going to make me tell you everything?"

I gave her a smile. "I thought you would say that that's why," I started pulling the blood bottle, slowly, out of the bag. "I brought-" Before I could finish my sentence, Isabella jumped to the door but was stopped by the force field again and was throw against the wall. I looked at her and saw her eyes blood red and the blood flowing to her eyes. Her fangs we're out. I smiled. "You want to try again"

She slowly walked over to the door and sank to the ground. "Blood first" She said looking at me. Her fangs we're gone and her eyes were back to normal. I took the plastic cup from my bag and poured at little bit in and slowly pushed it in. She took the cup and she quickly gouged the blood down.

"Can you be a little quieter? Damon's -"

"He's gone with our little friend Rose"

"She's not my friend"

"That's not what it sounded like this morning"

"You heard all that? But I thought,"

"I told you, I'm trying to save my vampire powers. If I know what's going on in you're social life, I know I way to get even with you" I glared at her, she smiled back. She placed the plastic cup down and looked at me straight in the eyes. "So, where do you want to start off? Italy or England?"

"I don't get it?" "Italy is how I became a vampire. England is how I met Klaus"

I thought about it for a minute. "Italy"

She smiled. She bought her hand to her chin and started tapping her chin with her index figure "How should I start"

I leaned against the door of the cellar. Alex kept looking at me with those wide eyes. "Stefan and Damon already told you the basics. Where I lived, my family, how I was suppose to marry Damon"

"Well...Tori said that your father had a great deal to pay to Damon and Stefan's father"

"Uh huh and did they ever tell you what that was exactly?"

"No, they never told me"

"You find out later on in the story. You see, I was the best young wizard of my time. My sister, she knew nothing. Couldn't do a spell save her life. We were to have our wizard completion but when I found out that I had to marry the human, Damon Salvatore, my father forfeited me from the completion and said my powers would go to my sister after I married Damon. See, my sister got married a month before the Salvatore family set foot in Florence, my home. She married into a rich wizard family that lived by the shores. The Russo family"

Alex's eyes popped out of her sockets. "The-The-The Russo's?"

"Shocking isn't it?"

She glared at me. "So…I'm guessing…I'm not a Russo"

"No, you are. The man I had an affair with was the groom's younger brother"

"Your kidding" "Nope. I'm surprised Damon and Stefan didn't tell you about him. They met him"

"They did"

"Yeah, a couple times. Anyway, we had an affair for a month before…you know how it works. I didn't discover I was pregnant until a few weeks after the brothers were here. Anyway, I was to marry Damon within a week but…I was afraid…that he would kill me if he found out the child wasn't his. I told a servant of mine and she told run and never come back. So, I did"

"Where did you go?"

"I ran to Rome. Far from my city. I worked as a bar maid and then, in March of 1864, I had a beautiful baby boy"

"Did you…keep him"

"Yes, I didn't have the heart to give him away but…I couldn't give him that life. On the streets," I looked at Alex. She had a tear rolling down her eye. "Don't give me that sympathetic look"

"It's not a look," she said glaring at me. "At least I care"

"Pfft, sure. Anyway, this is how my story starts off,"

XXXXX

The only thing you could hear down the streets was my heels hitting the pavements. Click, click, click, click. It was strange. Normally, the streets were full of people at this time of night. It was the time the woman would come out and 'set their price' but it was empty. The only thing living on the streets were the rats. I quickly walked down the streets to the inn where my baby, Fedro stayed with my good friend, Pia.

"Miss," I heard a someone with a British accent ask. I turned around and saw a dirty blonde haired man stand in the middle of the street, ten feet away from me. "Do you speak English?" He asked me.

"Yes," I said. "Quiet well. May I help you?"

"You must come with me"

"Sorry sir?"

"You must come with me. It's not safe here"

"I'm sorry, sir. I must get home to my baby" I turn and move forward to my direction only to run into the man. I looked up into his hazel eyes. I looked back to see if I was seeing things only to see the dark empty street behind me. I quickly looked back at him. "Please"

"I'm sorry miss" he then put his hand over my mouth and dragged me away.

I woke up in a musty old bed. I could hear two people fighting in the other room. "Why would you bring her here, Kol?" A woman with a British accent screamed. "What if 'he' comes here? Or Elijah? Or… she'll come. You know it"

"What was I suppose to do Margret?" A man said. He sounded like the man who took me. Trying not to make any noise, I slowly crept up to the door. "I couldn't just leave her. She'd be dead if any one of them found her"

"Yes, but bringing her here, wasn't the best choice. You could have taken her to the wizard council or…somewhere logical"

"And how am I suppose to do that? I'm a vampire, remember? A wizard, like yourself, can only talk to the council"

I walked threw he door and quickly made my way to the back. "You!" I turned and then something pierced my torso. I fell to my knees and saw knife lodged in my stomach area. "Kol!" The woman screamed as she pulled the knife from my stomach.

The man ran up to me so fast, I didn't even notice. He bit his arm showing these two big, white fangs. The blood quickly poured down his arm. He took his wrist and stuck it up against my mouth. I tried pushing him away and tried spitting out the blood but it was no use, the man was too strong. The cold blood filled my mouth. I looked down at my wound and it quickly disappeared and only showed skin.

I looked up at the man and woman in horror. "How-"

"No time for questions," The woman said. "We must get you out of her as quickly as-"

Suddenly, there where three loud bangs at the door. "Open up Kol!" A woman screamed. She too had a British accent. "I know you and your bitch of a wizard lover are in there!" The man got up and walked straight to the door.

I got up and looked at the door trying to see the stranger but the woman, known as Margret, pulled me up and pushed me into the room I woke up in. "It's not your place" she said to me as she push me in. I ran back to the door and tried to open it but it was locked. With no windows in the room and any other ways of escaping my prison, I decided to ease drop onto the argument in the other room.

"Marina, what are you doing here?" The man asked.

"You know very damn well why I'm here?" The woman at the door screamed at him. "Where is she?"

"And hello to you too" The man said.

"Kol, we can either do this the easy way, or the hard way. Your choice"

"Marina" The man, known as Kol, said. "You will not touch her. We will be taking her to the wizard council and they will protect her"

"Over my dead body!" The woman, Marina, said.

"That can be arranged. I then heard a gust of air and then a loud bang coming from outside.

"Kol!" Margret screamed. The door then opened and Margret stood in front of me. "Stay here" She said. "I have to go help Kol. Don't step outside of this house. She cannot harm if you stay inside" She then grabbed the black wand on the table and ran outside.

I stood outside the door but couldn't see anything, just a bunch of blurs. I watched Margret cast spells from every direction in the plaza. I then saw a back of a woman stand in front of Margret. She was around my height with raven black hair like mine. She grabbed Margret by the throat and threw her against the brick wall. I looked back at the woman but she was gone. I then remembered that I had my wand in my handbag. I rushed to the bedroom and found my handbag on the bedside table and reached in and grabbed my wand. I ran back and ran outside to help Margret.

She was slowly getting up from the pavement. "No!" She screamed. "Get back into the house!"

"Foolish girl" I heard the woman, Marina say. I turned around and then. Crack! Everything went black.

XXXXX

"Did you get a good look of her face?" Alex asked, hunched over. Listing to my story.

"All I remember," I said. "Was a set of chocolate brown eyes and an evil grin even Damon couldn't pull off"

Alex rolled her eyes. "So…This Margret and Finn…they we're trying to help you"

"Yes, years later, I found out about the curse and figured out why they were trying to help me. See, Kol is actually part of The Originals. Very close to Klaus and Elijah but he's known to be different then them. Safer and Kinder. Margret was a wizard from England. She met Kol years before and they fell in love ever since. Kol saw me a week before and couldn't believe it. He and Margret wanted to keep me safe from Klaus, Elijah and this…Marina person"

"Whose she?"

"I don't know? I've tried asking around in the past but…nobody will give me an answer"

"So, what happened after…when you…woke up?"

I felt a smile appear on my face. "All hell broke loose"

XXXXX

I sat up straight gasping for air and then started couching. "Stupid girl!" I looked up and saw Margret standing in the kitchen cutting up some carrots. I got up from the ground and slowly walked around the table trying to keep my balance. "I told you," Margret said. "To stay in the house"

"You were hurt," I said. "I was trying to help"

"I didn't need your help! I could have done it myself"

My eyes then started to hurt. "Why are my eyes in pain?" I asked.

"You're in transition"

"Pardon me?"

"You're becoming a vampire"

"A va-va-vampire? But how? I… I can't be a-"

"You're a different kind of vampire then what we are to use to. You must consume blood from another vampire and then die. Kol gave you his blood and...then Marina killed you"

"Who is Marina?" Margret smiled.

"So many questions I shall not answer. Now, in order to complete your transition," she turned her head to me. "You must consume human blood or you shall die"

My eyes popped out of my sockets. "I…I don't want to die. I have a baby at home. I have a son"

"Too bad, you must. This is what you get when you- Ouch!" Margret hissed as she looked down at her figure. She cut her figure deep and the blood was pouring out. "Hand me that towel, will you?" Margret asked but I couldn't move. I was so memorized by the blood. It looked so good. It smelt so delicious. I just wanted one taste, just one tiny taste. "Don't," Margret said. I looked up and saw Margret glaring. "Even think about it"

"Just tiny taste, please," I begged. "I don't want to die"

"I don't care. You will die and we will forget any of this happened," Margret when to walk pass me but I immediately grabbed her arm. "What are you doing?" I looked down at the blood still on her finger. "Isabella, let go," I move my mouth in closer to her figure. "Stop! Let go of me!"

My lips then touched the blood and I started licking the blood off her figure. When I was done, I lifted my head up and looked at Margret who was horrified. I jumped and then bite down on her neck sucking down all the blood I could possibly gobble down. It tasted so good the warmth of the blood sliding down my throat. The sweetness of the blood. I just kept on drinking more and more.

"Stop!" I was pulled back and thrown against the wall.

The fangs then started growing. My gums started to pull back; I could feel the points of the fangs touched my tongue. I groaned as the pain of fangs was excruciating.

When it stopped, I slowly opened my eyes and saw Kol cradling Margret's body. Tears were rolling down his eyes. "You killed her," he whispered. I couldn't say anything. I was scared. Scared that I killed someone. A human being. I was also scared what Kol would do to me. "You killed her!" he screamed.

"I'm sorry," I said. "I didn't mean to. I just wanted a taste-"

"I was going to give you another chance. I was going to help you. He won't stop, even if you are a vampire. Save yourself" I glared at him before running out of the house.

"So, Kol became your arch nemesis?" I asked as I got up from the floor.

"He never forgave me for what I did to Margret," Isabella said. "Whatever, she was a bitch anyway"

"He loved her though?"

"Love is weak. Anyone who believes in it is a moron. I had to learn that the hard way"

"So, what happened after you left?"

"I went inn where my baby boy stayed but…few days after being there, the blood lust over came me and I killed my best friend and her husband…and her children"

My eyes popped out of my sockets. "How-"

"When you turn into a vampire? You'll understand"

"I'll never be a monster like you" I said sternly.

"You know you're boyfriends a vampire. Never grows old, never will die. You'll look like a cougar when you're 45 and still dating him. You're going to have to turn at some point if you want to keep your 'Always and Forever' motto," I crossed my arms over my chest and rolled my eyes. "Anyway, I was afraid of killing my baby boy. So…I took him to the only person I could trust"

I walked threw the gate of the Russo estate hiding Fedro in my cloak. I kept on trying to not look at him. I was too afraid of killing him. I walked up to the giant door and knocked three times. The door creaked open and a woman in servants clothing opened. "May I help you?" She asked.

"Yes," I said. "I'm here to see Mrs. Russo"

"I'm sorry, Miss. She's not seeing any visitors right now"

"Tell her it's urgent"

"Miss please; Mrs. Russo has just had a terrible lost. She's not well"

"I must see her"

"Good day Miss"

She was about to close the door but I then looked deep into her eyes and started to compel her. "You will invite me in and take me to Mrs. Russo" I compiled.

The servant nodded and then said, "Please come in Miss. I shall take you to Mrs. Russo" She then grabbed her candle stick and showed me the way. We walked up two flights of stairs before the servant stopped and knocked on the door. "Mrs. Russo!" she called. "You have a visitor"

"Send them in!" It was Marinetta. I could hear her crying in the other room.

"Go on in, Miss" The servant said.

I gave her a curtsey and she bowed back before I opened the door to the room. I closed the door behind me and saw Marinetta standing there. She stood still for a minute. Her eyes were all red and puffy. "Isa-Is-Isabella?"

"Yes dear sister," I said. "It is I"

She quickly ran up to me and hugged me. "Where have you gone, sister? We thought you were dead?"

"I…I had to...fix some matters"

"And your back"

"N-"

"Thank god sister you're here," she interrupted me. "I don't know what I shall do?"

"What wrong dear sister?"

"My baby has died"

"How so?"

"Disease. He was born that way. The doctor gave him medicine but…he died this morning. The medicine wasn't strong enough" she then started weeping in my shoulder. "Now, my husband is coming home tomorrow and I must tell him that his son has died. Oh Isabella. What shall I do" I started rubbing her shoulder and calming her down. Just then, Fedro started crying. My sister stopped crying and jumped back. She looked up at me with wide eyes. "What is that sound?"

I pulled my clock back and showed her Fedro. "This is Fedro…my son"

She reached in to touch him. "May I"

"Of course" I handed her the baby.

Marinetta smiled as she cradled him in her arms. "He's beautiful," she looked up at me. "Is this why you ran?"

"Yes. Sister, I need you to take him"

"Why? Aren't you staying?"

"I cannot. I'm a danger to you and Fedro"

"Wh-What ever do you mean?"

"I cannot explain but I need you to give Fedro the same love and affection as you did for yours"

"What shall I tell my husband?"

"Tell him…Fedro is your son"

"But we are burying him with it a fort night how-"

"Where does his body lie?"

"Downstairs. He resigns there until my husband comes home"

"I'll…bury the body. Just take care of Fedro"

"This is madness. How could you ask me to do such a thing"

"Please-"

"No! I will not! I won't do anything-"

I started deeply into her eyes and started to compel her. "You will not remember this," I said. "Your baby boy didn't die. Your baby is in your arms. You will not remember me coming here to ask you to take my baby" I then ran out of the house.

"You gave him to Marinetta?" I asked.

"Yes," Isabella said. "That's why on the family tree, it states that Marinetta is your great great grandmother when in fact, I am"

"So, we're all still related to the Russos and the Giordano…just…different great great grandparents"

"Yup. I continued on after that and then met Klaus on New Years Eve in London, 1941"

"So this is the England story"

She nodded. "Marisol, met Klaus hundreds of years before that and they've been friends ever since. I only met Klaus that one time. He's cute and I've tried with him but he didn't seem interested…and that's the story"

"That's it?"

"Yup? He wasn't interested. He was only interested in looking for Katerina Petrova and getting back at her for running away all those years ago"

"Running away?"

"I'm sure Elena will tell you after you leave here"

"But I thought-"

"I'm not dumb," She interrupted me. "I knew the two of you were going to ask us and I thought since she's not here with you, she's probity asking Katherine her side of the story"

I glared at her and was about to tell her off but shook my head and forgot about it "What is Sânge care sparge ciuma curse?"

Isabella let out a sigh. "It means, The Blood that Breaks the Plague"

"What?"

"Before the Sun and the Moon curse was created, The Blood that Break the Plague curse was"

"What do you mean by plague?"

"Way back when, townsfolk considered vampirism a plague. The blood that is to break it…is yours"

My mouth dropped open. "But-But why would he want to break it? Doesn't he want to be a vampire?"

"Yes he does. Breaking the curse won't stop you from being a vampire, it will give you different vampire powers that go beyond what we have now"

"Like?"

"You won't die from a stake to the heart, vervain won't be an issue and you don't have to survive on blood anymore. You can be like human and live forever without the blood but…it's like a first come first serve basis. Only can happen to one vampire"

"So Klaus wants the power"

"Exactly"

"Why wouldn't you want this? I mean, wouldn't you want to have the power?"

"It cannot happen to me. Since I was the doppelgäanger and it was to be my blood to break the curse, it won't work"

I started pacing around the room trying to process the information being told to me. "How do you break the curse?" I asked.

"Just the doppelgäanger, a witch and a wizard…oh and the vampire that wants to break it"

"So, me…Bonnie?"

"That was the plan"

"Justin"

"It's even better that he's related to you"

"Then Klaus"

"Great plan isn't it?"

"What do you mean by plan?"

"See, Juliet and Mason leaving was just a coincidence. It made both you and your brother depressed. Gave you both an excuse. Remember that e-mail you got in May, 'Greatest Pranks Ever'"

"Yeah, I used one of the pranks at school"

"Yeah, I know.I sent that e-mail to you. I then compiled Mr. Laritate to expel you when discovered your prank"

"You got me suspended from Tribeca?"

"Yup and then I compiled your parents to send you and your brohter here to live with your Aunt and cousins. Pretty cleaver, eh? Have all my eggs lined up before Klaus comes. He'll be so happy. He will break the Sun and the Moon curse and he'll break the Sânge care sparge ciuma curse" A evil grin appeared on Isabella's face.

I put my hand on my forehead. "This can't get any worse" I said.

"Oh! And I left out the best part, each girl born in our family line, is the doppelgäanger"

"But…you had a sister and…my dad had sisters"

A grin appeared across Isabella's face. "You remember that memory you had, of me spying on my sister and mother. Remember my mother was begging my sister not to tell my father?" I nodded. "She was begging my sister not to tell my father that she wasn't his child. My Mother, she had an affair before she married my Father and my mother kept it secret. She thought it was time to tell my sister…but not me. Oh and the debt my father had to pay to the Salvatore father. Well, years before, when my sister was a baby, my father actually figured out that my sister wasn't his child but if he told anyone it would bring shame to his family. So, he got Giuseppe and him to go after my mothers lover and kill him,"

My mouth dropped open.

"Giuseppe made him promise to repay him back someday. Twenty years later, my father came back on that promise. He knew Giuseppe was looking for a bride for his eldest son. My father told him about me and it was arranged"

I paced back and forth around the room, again. "So, you were the next female in the family?" I asked and she nodded. "But that doesn't explain Jenna, Miranda and Megan"

"You know, I've been watching my family for over a hundred years and I was surprised what your grandparents did"

"What did they do?"

Isabella smiled again. "Jenna, Megan and Miranda…were all adopted"

"Why did they adopt all three of them?" Alex asked as she paced back and forth for the third time.

"They had close friends in the city that had died in a major car accident. The girls were young so, instead of having them live in an orphanage, your grandparents took the liberty of adopting them. The girls were too young so they don't remember a thing," I turned my head to Alex. Her hands were on her forehead as she sat against the wall. "Why so glum?"

"I just…can't believe all this. Why is this all happening to me?"

"It has something to do with the original doppelganger. I don't know how it happened, why it happened. She did something and that's it"

Alex took her hands off her forehead and turned her head to me. "Now, I want to know, how is it you know my ever move?"

I let out a sigh before answering her question. "It's called the other body spell. It's a spell that…it's like…how do I say this. I can go into your mind, know what you're feeling, how you're feel and I can see everything that you can see…there are some side effects"

"Which are?"

"The person that you are watching, they can accidentally go into your mind. They can see your memories"

"The visions. The visions I kept on having, they were all from your past"

"Yes"

"Why were you watching me?"

"Just watching to see what you're up to. I too busy watching Katherine plus, if I came to town and you all saw me…it kind of ruin my plan," Alex got up and paced around the room, again. "That's it. That's all I can tell you," She then stopped pacing and stood in front of the door. "What are you going to do now? Kill me?"

Alex took her wand out and pointed it at me. I braced myself and waited for the spell to hit me. She then pointed to the outer edge of the door and traced around the door frame producing sparkly white dust. "What did you do?" I asked as I pulled my self up using the wall.

"I'm letting you go" she said.

"Why?"

"Because…To be honest…I feel sorry for you. You lost everyone in your family. You don't deserve this"

I took a step out the door, seeing if it was safe and then walked out the door. I stood beside Alex, who was glaring at me. "I guess…Thanks" I said.

"Just go before I change my mind"

I gave her a smirk before running upstairs and out of the house.

I let out a sigh before grabbing the cellar handle and closing the door with a big bang. I turned and then all of a sudden, I ran into Damon. He was shirtless and only hand on his black jeans and black socks. "Why don't you have a shirt on?" I asked him.

"What did you just do?"

"Damon…I had to"

"Why would you do something so stupid?" he asked as he grabbed my arms and started shaking.

I glared at him, shrugged him off and crossed my arms over my chest. "You weren't here, Damon. You didn't listen to her story"

"It doesn't matter. She's a bitch. She'll never change"

"But I got to learn why she's that way. She's been threw so-"

"Alex!" We both looked and saw Elena run down the stairs with tear in her eyes.

"Elena," I bushed pass Damon and held onto Elena's hand. "Elena what happened? Did she do something"

"No," she said threw a sob. "You have to come with me quickly"

I turned around and looked at Damon. "Put a shirt on and come with us" I said to him before taking Elena's arm and dragging her upstairs.

XXXXX

Damon, Elena and I went to the tomb and ran down the stairs were Stefan stood tapping his chin with his index figure. "Stefan," I said. He turned and looked at me with a small smile. "What are you doing here? What happened?"

Stefan looked at Elena, who was standing beside me. "Did you tell her?" he asked her.

"No," she said. "I couldn't"

"What's going on?" Damon asked Stefan.

"I hate to interrupt," we all turned and looked at the tomb where Katherine stood. She was leaning against the base of the door, using her right arm for support. Her left hand was down but she was holding something in her hand. It kind of look like a…shoe. "But I thought I should show you all this. I need to get ride of it, the smell is revolting,"

She then threw a body out threw the door and it landed right in front of us. When I saw the face, I put both hands over my mouth and started crying. It was Harper. She had a huge hole in her chest and I could see her heart was missing.

"Oh and this" Katherine said as she toss a heart out and it landed beside Harper.

I fell to my knees and grabbed onto Harper and started shaking her. "No!" I screamed. "No! Harper! You can't leave me! We were supposed to graduate together and then we were supposed to buy our own apartments and live with each other. You can't leave me! No!"

I then burring my face into my hands and started crying. I could feel two hands rubbing my back. I looked up and saw Katherine standing there with her right hand on her hip and a big smile across her face. "You did this," I got up and ran towards the tomb but then Stefan and Damon started holding me back. "You bitch! Why did you? Harper didn't do anything to you"

"I didn't kill her" she said.

"Then who else did?" I then stopped pushing and started thinking about it. It then hit me. I looked up at Katherine and she gave me a nod. "Isabella"

"Yup, I even saw her drag the body out of the house"

"And you wait this long to tell us because?"

"I was going to do it when the time was right"

Stefan then picked me up by the shoulders and started pushing me out of the tomb. "No!" I screamed as I tried pushing pass him. "I won't leave her!"

"Alex, Alex, Alex!" Stefan said as he grabbed my shoulders and started holding me down. "I'll come back for her later. You have to go home and tell you brothers and parents what happened" I nodded. He turned me around and pushed me out the door.

XXXXX

Damon went home and Stefan offered to take Elena and I home. On the way home Elena told us what Katherine told her and how Caroline, Tyler and Bonnie were also involved in the Sun and the Moon curse. I told them what happened with Isabella.

We walked up the porch steps. Elena walked up to the front door and put her hand on the knob. I stood there, looking at Stefan. We had to talk. "Coming?" Elena asked.

I turned my head to Elena. "Um…I'll be right there. When I come in…we'll tell Justin"

"Ok" Elena opened the door and shut it behind her.

I turned my head back to Stefan. "Alex we have to talk" Stefan said.

I looked into his eyes and saw tears forming in them. "Stefan, what am I suppose to say," tears started pouring down my eyes. "Everyone I know and I love is in danger and now…Harper is dead because of me. If I wouldn't have performed that spell if…if wouldn't have done that prank in May…everything would be fine. Harper would human and alive, Vicki wouldn't be dead, Caroline wouldn't have become a vampire. Just face it Stefan. Everything would have been better if I didn't come here in the first place"

"No," he said. "No don't say that," he took a step towards me and grabbed my face. I looked into his water eyes. "If you wouldn't have came here, I wouldn't have ever met you and if I never met you, I don't know what would have happened"

"But ever since you met me all I've ever done has caused you pain. I can't do that anymore. I…I just can't" I grabbed his hands and put them down and then opened the front door and closed it behind me
