~ So, about a month since the last update, but I hope you won't mind with what I have in this chapter.

~ This year I will try try to have more frequent updates with this story, depending on what happens with my other stories.

jasmine0: There will definitely be more Luna/Klaus interaction, but he won't be back in Mystic Falls until 3.09 Homecoming, so there is going to be some wait for that. Although Rebecca might talk to Luna about Klaus and there is something that will happen that might shift Luna's thoughts about Klaus. I think that there will definitely be some temptation for Luna to drink human blood, especially with Stefan being in Ripper mode and with Damon showing her blood bags, which she hasn't drank from before.

~ There will be some slightly pissed Luna in this. She is part werewolf, which makes her have anger and aggression and we all know as a vampire (hybrid), that's magnified.

ENJOY!

Luna's POV

I opened my eyes and looked at the ceiling. My dad was dead, my mom didn't really want anything to do with me, my whole pack was dead and I had heightened everything all because of Klaus. I was practically alone and with nowhere to go. It was a good thing that Damon offered to let me stay in his house, but I wasn't sure if I was going to stay for long.

I slowly slid out of the bed, knowing that everyone else was asleep. There was something I wanted to do, that I haven't been able to do since I went along with Klaus. As I slowly walked through the house I went to the front door. When I stepped outside, I took a deep breath and let the slight breeze blow. It brought some calmness to be before I opened my eyes. I could see all the trees, which told me there should be animals. 'I can get back to my old routine' I thought to myself. With Klaus gone I was free to drink from animals again. I sped towards the woods, going straight for the deepest part I could find.

When I got to a small opening in the middle of the woods, I stood still. I closed my eyes and took in a deep breath. All the sounds filled my ears, filling my brain. I could hear the steps of an animal, I didn't know which, but I went after it anyway at full speed.

I spent a hour, maybe more, hunting animals in the woods. Their blood didn't taste the same as I remembered. 'Could it be from me drinking human blood?' I asked myself. Before Klaus, the only human blood that I had was the human blood that turned me. 'I don't want to harm anyone' I thought before walking into the house. That's when I saw Stefan sitting on the couch. I was able to see two girls bent down and one girl standing. 'Blood' I thought. I could smell their blood.
"I don't like this." I said, knowing he could hear me.
"Have a little fun Luna." Stefan said as he looked up at me. "It's what Klaus would want." He smirked at me.
"I don't give a shit about what he wants." I said, not getting closer to him. Stefan just smirked at me before looking back down and spinning something.
"Uh-oh." He said before lifting his head. "Alexandra, left hand, please."
"Really?" I asked in a groan.
"Hey, the two brunettes on the staircase owe me a Persian rug." Damon said as he walked up to my side.
"There are dead people just laying around?" I asked, already not sure if I should have stayed or not.
"You mean, they owe us a Persian rug?" Stefan asked him. "It's my house, too, brother. Ooh!" He held up the board. "Would you like a spin?" When Damon didn't say anything, he looked at me. "What about you Luna?" He asked with a smirk.
"No way." I said, not wanting to be near the human blood. I didn't want to harm anyone and Stefan was harming them.
"So this is what Klaus had in mind when he compelled you to protect Elena?" Damon asked as he got closer to his brother.
"These ladies are helping me be all that I can be." Stefan said, which made me roll my eyes before someone knocked at the door. I opened it and Rebecca was on the other side.
"Hello bestie." She said to me. "Where's Stefan?" I stepped to the side to let her in and she walked right past me towards Stefan.
"Who the hell are you?" Damon asked her, but she ignored him.
"He left me here." She said to Stefan. "My brother actually left me here."
"Oh, I'm sorry." Stefan said as he looked at her. "Your tone implies that I'm actually supposed to care." I rolled my eyes as I went to the spot that I was at before.
"You're Klaus's sister?" Damon asked.
"Rebecca. Pleasure, I'm sure." She said to Damon as she looked back at him before looking at Stefan. "Which one's my room?"
"You're not staying here." Stefan said to her.
"Rude. Both of you." Rebecca said when no one said anything. "I'll see to it myself." She started to walk away and I decided to follow her. I didn't want to be by Stefan and what he was doing. "What are you doing here?"
"It's either here, on my own, or with your brother and I'd rather chose here." I said as we stepped over the two bodies by the stairs. "Although I could do without what Stefan's doing."
"Are you going to the school?" She asked me.
"No." I said as we reached the top of the stairs.
"Why not?" She asked just before finding an empty room.
"After I became this..." I said, referring to that I'm a hybrid ", I graduated from high school. I had to do something to keep my mind occupied after my mother left."
"Why did your mother leave?"
"She wasn't too fond of me activating the werewolf curse when I was 16 and when I became a hybrid, she left." I took a deep breath. "She didn't want to deal with me being like this so she left, but my dad stayed. I never left my dad until Klaus killed him."
"She'll come around."
"I doubt that." I said before taking a deep breath. It had been a while since I talked about my mom, so it was still a sensitive subject for me. "I'll be downstairs." I said before leaving the room.

As I walked down the stairs, I couldn't help but look at the dead women at the bottom of the staircase. 'I need to get out of here' I thought. Not out of Mystic Falls, just the house.
"Don't you have school to go to?" I heard Damon ask his brother. I saw Stefan push a woman off of him 'Must be dead' I sadly thought.
"He better be leaving." I said, which made both of them look at me. "I can't stand him."
"You better learn to deal with me Luna." Stefan said before standing from the couch. "After all, Klaus wants his ginger hybrid to be under guard by me." He evilly smirked before I rushed and held him against the wall.
"Let's get a few things first." I said, showing both my hybrid features. "One, don't EVER call me a ginger. Two, I am NOT Klaus's Hybrid. He may have turned me, but I am NOT his! Three, if you ever get me mad... all it takes is one bite and you're dead. I'm stronger than you, so it's best not to get me mad, understand?" He managed to nod his head, even though I was holding him against the wall. "Don't think for a second that I actually like you." I released Stefan and felt my anger slightly settle, but I knew it was best if I actually got out of the house. "I need to get out of here for a little bit." I said before walking out of the house.

I had decided to go shopping, mainly because I knew I didn't have much clothes here. After I technically turned 18, I was able to get a credit card, which helped, especially when I went with my dad on full moons. If I was going to stay in Mystic Falls, I would need clothing. As I shopped, I couldn't help but think of when I was little and would go shopping with my mom. She almost always picked out my clothes before I turned 13. After that she would get me shirts that I actually liked, unlike my dad who always brought me really girly clothes. 'I miss them' I couldn't help but think as I walked out of a store.

I had been walking towards the Grill for a bite to eat when I felt someone was following me.
"Luna?" I voice asked and I froze in my spot. 'It can't be' I thought before turning around.
"Mom?" I asked with pure disbelief. 'Why would she be here after all this time?' I asked myself. 'How did she find me?' "Is that really you?" She just nodded her head with a smile and I ran towards her, flinging my arms around her neck.
"I missed you." I said with tears starting to fall from my eyes.
"I missed you to." She said as she wrapped her arms around me. "Okay Luna." She said after a few minutes. "I need air." I quickly backed away, unaware I was holding her that tight.
"Sorry." I said with tears still coming down my face. "How did you find me?" I asked, not caring about what happened the last time I saw her.
"Well, I was going to a bar when this man started to talk to me. He said he knew you and that you were here in Mystic Falls. Next thing I know I'm packing my stuff and here I am."
"What man?" I asked, thinking that the only person outside my family that knew I was here was him.
"He's a bit taller than you, brown hair, bit of an accent."
"Is his name Klaus?" I cautiously asked her.
"I think it was... yeah, it definitely was. His name was Klaus." 'Why would he do this?' I asked myself.
"Are you sure?" My mom nodded her head. "Did he say anything else?"
"Just that you needed me." Fresh tears started to gather in my eyes. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah." I said, slightly nodding my head. "I'm just happy you're here." Tears started to gather in her eyes before we embraced each other.

My mom and I spend a good portion of the day together. Even though she seemed genuine about wanting to patch things up between me and her, I couldn't help but think that Klaus compelled her to say that. Even if he did, I have my mom again. She moved into a small bed and breakfast in the town while I had decided to stay at the boarding house with Rebecca, Damon, and Stefan the dick. I told her that I would show her the boarding house a different day, hopefully one when Stefan wasn't there.

I walked alongside Rebecca to a bonfire that the high school was having. I was going to spend more time with my mom, but Rebecca practically dragged me because she wanted someone to talk to.
"He must really fancy you." Rebecca said to me as we stopped to get some beer.
"I don't care if he does." I said as I got a cup and poured some beer into it. "He may have returned my mom to me, but that doesn't change the other things he did." 'Or does it?' A voice asked me before I took a deep breath and drank from my cup.
"You two alright there?" Stefan asked and I just rolled my eyes.
"I thought Tyler would be here." Rebecca said to Stefan.
"You're into Tyler now?" He asked. "That's kind of fickle."
"When you're willing to give me the time of day again, then we'll talk." I smirked at what Rebecca said to Stefan. "Until then, a girl has needs." I opened my mouth to say something, but I saw Elena walking towards us.
"Excuse me." She said before I could say anything.
"Elena, hi." Stefan said as Elena filled her cup with beer. "What are you doing?"
"I'm having fun, Stefan." Elena said to Stefan. "You have a problem with that?" She drank her whole cup.
"All right, take it easy. We both know you're kind of a lightweight." Stefan said to her.
"Uh-huh. Really? You think I'm going to let a blood addict tell me how to drink?" I couldn't help but smirk as Elena walked away.
"I like her." I said before taking a sip from my cup.
"Why do you like the doppelganger?" Rebecca asked me.
"She stood up to Stefan. I don't like Stefan so I like her." Stefan looked at me and I just gave him a smirk. He looked at Rebecca before walking away.

I had gotten into a drinking competition and won. A couple of guys flirted with me a couple of times but I started to get bored, so I sat down next to Rebecca on a log.
"Is this supposed to be fun?" Rebecca asked me as she lifted a marshmallow from the fire. "I've been through 10 of these." I slightly smiled at her burnt marshmallow.
"That's because you're doing it wrong."
"What?" Rebecca asked, which made me turn my head to see Damon sitting on a log near us. "No friends your own age?"
"Like you can talk." Damon said as I took the burned part of the marshmallow off.
"You take the burnt part off and eat it." I said before popping it into my mouth. "Just try again with another one." I chewed and swallowed it. "You have to try a s'more. Marshmallows, chocolate and graham crackers all together. Yum."

After a few minutes we had the stuff to make S'mores and I showed Rebecca how to make it.
"Good right?" I asked Rebecca as she bit into hers. She gave a slight nod.
"Can't believe you've never had one of these before." Damon said to Rebecca. He was still sitting on the same log as before.
"Well, I've been in a casket for 90 years." She said after looking at me.
"That's no excuse." I said with a small smile. "I had these practically once a month." I pictured each full moon that I went with my dad we would either have s'mores before we turned or wait until the morning. After I became a hybrid, we would wait until after the full moon and then we would have s'mores that morning.
"Why are you being so nice to me?" Rebecca asked as she looked at Damon "You hate me. You should be mean."
"So, you'd rather him act like Stefan?" I asked Rebecca. "It's better him be nice to you, even though he's supposed to hate you." I looked from Rebecca to Damon. "I haven't had enough to drink." I said before slowly getting up to get more to drink.

I drunkenly walked into my room and tried not to stumble. I was as drunk as ever was but I had managed to make my own way into my room. My body started to fall, but luckily my bed was in front of me and I fell right onto it. I slowly pulled my body up so my head was on the pillow. I smiled at the softness of the pillow before quickly falling to sleep.

General POV

As Luna slept in her bed, there was a person there was a man who watched her. No one knew he was there, even if they were to look into the room. He just looked at Luna with sadness in his eyes. Everything that happened to her after his death, he knew about and more. There were people that he talked to, but he just wanted to talk to Luna. He walked to her side to get a better look. Her face was peaceful, despite how drunk she had gotten.
"Oh, Luna." He whispered sadly.
"I miss you dad." Luna mumbled in her sleep. For a second he was surprised, but then he felt sad about how early he was taken from his daughter's life.

~ Yes, Luna is a Ginger (Orangeish hair, freckles, the whole ordeal), but she doesn't like to be called that. I was thinking that since Damon made nicknames for Caroline (Blondie, Vampire Barbie), Bonnie (Witchy), Tyler (Wolf-boy, Wolfie)(I think), Rebecca (Barbie Klaus) I was thinking that Damon (and obviously Stefan) could sort of nickname Luna as Ginger Hybrid or something like that.

~ I had planned to have Luna's mom come back into the story, along with her dad. Klaus killed her dad, so in the next chapter Ghost World, Luna will be able to talk to him again because of what happens. Even though Rebecca wasn't in the episode, I am going to try to fit her into the next chapter.

~ I think the next chapter might be a little shorter, but that depends on how detailed I get with the scenes with Luna's dad.

~ I only have the events up to The Homecoming planned, so anything after that, I would love to hear your ideas.

R&R 'till the next update
