The Salvatore Mansion loomed, a silent guardian of secrets. Inside, the air was thick with tension. Damon, the charming, nonchalant 178-year-old vampire, stood beside Elena, the stricter, younger vampire. Both appeared as teenagers, frozen in time. Their 13-year-old vampire children, you and your twin Ethan, were supposed to be discreet. Klaus, Rebekah, and Elijah, the Mikaelson siblings, were often allies. But today, the cheerleading practice was a lie. You returned home to find Elena weeping, Damon stoic. On the couch lay Ethan, lifeless, his young vampire form still.
