Zabrina POV

Two Years later...

"Are you sure your up for a rematch?"

Bonnie smirked at me "I don't go down easy, even if you have beaten me every single time"

I grinned "then let's see what you got"

Bonnie began mumbling in her gibberish witch language. I rolled my eyes. She isn't going to beat me with ancestral magic

I could feel blood coming out from my nose. I sighed. She has been trying to take me down with that same spell for years, it didn't work then, and it wasn't going to work now.

I approached a nearby tree and placed my hand on it. I took a deep breath. Pretty soon, I could feel the magic from the tree flowing threw me, as I targeted bonnie, then unleashed the power.

Bonnie stopped and stared at the ball of magic that was racing towards her, she tried to stop it, but was too late, as the magic ball hit her in the face, knocking her over. I stood above her, beaming proudly.

"Elemental magic beats ancestral every time"

Bonnie POV

I glared at Zabrina. It pisses me off that she is more talented with magic than I am, considering how long I have been practicing.

Zabrina's mysterious connection to the elements was intriguing. She absorbs power from the environment in order to attack her enemies. Besides this, Damon and I couldn't, for the life of us, figure out what she may be. We have tried everything. Vervain tests, blood tests, compulsion tests, etc, etc. It doesn't help that Stefan seems to have made a clever disappearing act, leaving us on our own to deal with this mess.

Zabrina grinned, offering me a helping hand. I rolled my eyes, and took it, dusting myself off

"Don't get too cocky, you got lucky, how about to tomorrow...Best 36 out of 72" I retorted

She laughed. Over time, Zabrina and I have gotten to be quite close. It's been a while since I could hang out with a friend without a supernatural crisis looming nearby.

Later on in the evening, Zabrina and I went to do our favourite night time activity...Elemental magic with water. We approached the deep blue pond located in the backyard of the Salvatore Boarding House. She knelt down, and lowered her hand in the water, closing her eyes. Soon enough, the water begins to glow, illuminated through the night sky. Watching the pond light up brings me hope, hope for a better future, and hope that someday, I could see Elena again...

I wiped the tears from my eyes. I couldn't honestly believe Damon chose me compared the the love of his life, but I will always cherish that decision, ensuring I live each day with purpose. Zabrina and I make our way to the Salvatore living room, plopping down on one of the couches, contemplating the future.

Damon emerges from upstairs, making his way towards the liquor cabinet and pouring himself a whisky.

"Learnt any new parlour tricks today?" Damon asked, seating himself from the couch across, where Caroline was already seated.

Caroline hasn't been the same lately, she seems lost in her thoughts, and she always seems anxious or worried, I have tried to talk to her, but she doesn't seem to want to budge, so I let it slide.

Zabrina responded to Damon's question "No, just more of the usual, playing around with the elements, whooping Bonnies ass in magic for the hundredth time..."

I elbowed her, causing her to giggle "she did not. As I said to her, she got lucky" I replied

Damon examined Zabrina "well, as much as I would like to continue this nauseating conversation, we really should get back to the topic of Zabrina"

I rolled my eyes "there is nothing to discuss, she is just a witch with vampiric traits, nothing to it"

Damon thought about this "you know who would really know about aincent supernatural species? One of the most aincent vampires on earth"

My breathing stopped as I realised what he meant "you don't mean..."

Damon's eyes glinted "we need klaus"

Caroline snapped into reality the second klaus' name was mentioned. She looked so nervous, I grew suspicious

Damon continued "look, we go to New Orleans, we get advice, and we come right back, easy as"

"Your wasting your time, your not going to find him"

Damon, Zabrina and I both jumped at Caroline's words, shocked as she finally manages to speak

"What do you mean, we won't find him? What are you hiding from us Caroline?" I questioned

She sighed "look, two years ago, I visited New Orleans as a means of finding klaus and asking for his help, but a waitress told me that he disappeared three years beforehand. I have been wracked with guilt since. Klaus could've been in trouble, yet I did nothing.." Caroline had tears streaming down her eyes, as we hung onto her every word

Damon was the first to speak "well, I say good riddance, now onto plan B..."

I glared at Damon "wow, your concern is real, Damon. Really, have you no heart?"

He rolled his eyes, taking a swig of his Whisky "it's not like klaus and I are high school besties...if he has disappeared, he has probably compelled the town to forget about him so his family can take one of their famous getaways, hopefully they won't come here for refuge"

During our heated argument, we barely heard the knocking on the door. Zabrina gets up and makes her way to the door. Once she opens it, we were all shocked to see who was there...

It was a human girl. She was shrivelled up, bloodied, and injured. She was traumatised. We were unsure what to do or say, until she spoke.

"The prophecy has been fulfilled, the prophecy has been fulfilled"

We all glanced at each other, wondering what the hell was going on. Zabrina helped the girl inside, seating her at one of the luxurious chairs situated in the lounge room

"Hi there crazy pants, what's your name?" Damon askes

Her eyes darted around the room frantically, attempting to make sense of her surroundings.

"Drink deep but beware

What you broke is past repair

All your oaths you betray, your sacred vows you sever

And now you see that nothing lasts for always and forever

Three yet remain, two already crossed

Yet in one year's time, you'll all be lost

As your family is undone

You will seed the beast that is to come"

We all were speechless. We didn't know what to make of what she said, although there were a few words that stood out from her speech

"Always and forever...are you talking about the original family?" I asked

She didn't seem to hear me

"The prophecy has been fufilled, the family has fallen, the old ones are no more.."

Suddenly, she seemed to be making more sense

Damon on the other hand, was growing impatient "I have had enough of this nonsense he muttered, looking deep into the girls eyes.

"You are going to calm down, and explain yourself properly, without the crazy talk" he compelled

We all looked onto her, waiting for the results

The girl blinked her eyes, and stared at us with gratitude "thank you" she said

We all sighed a deep breath of relief, Damon started to question her "well, now that the craziness is behind us, please tell us who the hell you are"

She took a deep breath "My name is Claire. I was a close family friend of the Mikealsons"

We all stared at her "ok, now tell us what you meant by all that prophecy nonsense" Zabrina replied

Claire snorted "it's hardly nonsense. But anyway, five years ago, the Mikealson family was prophesied to fall, one by one, until they were all gone. Over time, they began to die, until there was nothing left"

Everyone but Zabrina were stunned, to shocked to speak.

"But NOTHING can destroy that blasted family. We have tried many times. The best we got was staking Finn and kol." Damon retorted

Claire glared at Damon

"So YOUR the bastard who killed Finn and kol. I don't even know why the Mikealsons would even send me to you."

Damon rolled his eyes "ok, rewind. I was merely an accomplice. Besides. Those two big bad vamps were destroyed by two human teenagers putting their Xbox brains to the test. I'm not even sure why you care. Your obviously nothing but a blood bag to them"

Claire growled, and launched herself at Damon. To shocked to react, she was able to pin him down. Damon attempted to fight back, but Claire was too quick, and snapped his neck without blinking. Damon's body fell limp on the floor, and the whole room fell to a pin drop silence.

Claire got up and brushed herself off, glaring at the mystic falls gang.

"I'm not a blood bag. And next person who calls me that gets a stake through their heart. Are we clear?"

Afraid of what she might do next, everyone in the room nodded vigorously. Satisfied, Claire settled into one of the salvatores luxurious couches.

"Anyway, I need your help, and so does klaus. That's why he sent me here, your the only people he can turn to who he trusts"

Caroline stood up

"Wait, so klaus is still alive?" She exclaimed

Everyone in the room stared at her, so she sat back down, obviously embarrassed at the outburst

Claire sighed. "Yes, klaus is alive. But just barely. And if any of you give a damn about your sire dying, then I suggest you come with me to help free him, unless you want to suffer a horrible and painful death."

Everyone in the room seemed frozen in their seats. I was the first to answer

" we can't go anywhere. We have enough problems of our own stopping a mystical vampire huntress who wants us all dead. And we are trying to sort out what supernatural species Zabrina is so she can help end this."

Claire raised her eyebrow "it's honestly not rocket science, when you live with originals, you pick up on a few noticeable traits of a different array of supernatural creatures. Besides, I can sense her. I may be human, but I have an ability to read people. Their minds, their souls, and their futures. And I will be happy to be a bit more informative, if you willingly follow me to New Orleans."

We all glanced at each other, unsure of what to do next.

"We will go, to save our sire. But we cannot stay for long. We do have our own crisis to deal with" I answered

Claire grinned, making her way over to the door.

"Well then, to New Orleans we go"

At that moment, Damon stirred, as he began to come to. He sluggishly leaned up, staring groggily at the occupants in the room

"So what did I miss?"

Hey dedicated readers! First, I would just like to apologise for taking over six months to update. I only recently finished the HSC, so I now have a lot of free time on my hands ?

Also, if your not a fan of the originals, or don't tend to watch it, the next few chapters arnt for you. We will get back to vampire diaries, I just don't have the time or energy to catch up to an entire season.

Zabrina's powers will be further explained in next chapter

I will release the next chapter within a week (and I'm not stringing you along this time)
