Mystic Falls , Virginia , Medieval ages.

The four species of the supernatural were at war. Vampires were considered the royalties of the kingdom. They were living in the palace and have all the wealth. They were consisting of factions. Werewolves...they were the badasses. Always looking for trouble. If we were in the 21st century a typical werewolf would wear leather clothes, ride a harley and pick up fights at the bars. They were living in the town around the palace and consisting of packs. Hunters were not exactly supernatural. The only thing that was non human about them was the strength and the extreme fighting skills. If there was a term for them it would definetely be warriors. They were living in small villages around the palace and before the woods and consisting of gangs. And then there were the witches. Someone could call them gypsies. They were living in the woods close to nature in small houses more like cabins. They would gather around the fire every night to dance and tell stories about their ancestors. They were consisting of covens. So the center belonged to the vampires, the town to the werewolves , the villages to the hunters and the woods to the witches. But that wasn't official. So the territorry became a cause for the war between them. And there was also revenge for everyone who was killed by another species. With a few words : ruthless war.

Elena opened her brown eyes by the sound of two swords crushing. She sat on her bed and looked outside of her window to see her brother Jeremy and her boyfriend Matt training at their fighting skills. She took a look in the rising sun and smiled. A new day had began and she was happy to be alive with the people she loved by her side. Her aunt Jenna with her husband Alaric were at the kitchen preparing the breakfast when the door knocked. Alaric opened and saw Caroline. "Goodmorning Alaric, Jenna...where is Elena?" she asked with a big smile on her face. "I am right here..." Elena said entering the room. "Aren't you eating breakfast? We have eggs and bread and a little pork." Jenna said leaving a plate in front of Alaric who was now sitting at the table. "No we have to keep going. It's not like the lake is near by." Elena said and dragged Caroline to the door. "At least take these." Jenna said handing her two apples. Elena gave her a hug and left wih Caroline following her. They stopped to greet Jeremy and Matt and they started their little excursion. "How long has it been since we went fishing for the last time?" Caroline asked. "A long for sure. It's not like we could. I mean with the war and all this. At least now things after our last victory are less dangerous." Elena said. "How are things going?" Caroline asked. "Me and Matt..we are...fine. Jeremy is considering asking April Young out." Elena said smiling. "I nteresting. Galen's got the flu." Caroline replied with a slight frown. "So I don't get to see him until he gets better. My mother wouldn't let me. You know her moto...health above all." she added. "Mrs Liz knows what she is doing. We wouldn't like you catching a cold now would we?" Elena said smirking to her friend who sighed in disappointement.

Further into the woods Liv opened her cabin door and saw Bonnie preparing to leave her cabin. "Where are you heading so early?" she asked. "I am going to gather some herbs for the spells. Wanna come?" Bonnie replied. "No it's fine. I have practice with Luke. By the way...Kai told me that you two have practice later..." Liv said with a smile. "Just because you are head over heels in love with my brother Jamie it doesn't mean that I have to be in love with your brother too." Bonnie said smiling back. Liv shrugged her shoulders. "I personally think that you two would make a great couple. Better than him and Gretta for sure." Liv said. "Ok I get it. I don't like her either." Bonnie replied. "Yeah and I sure don't think that Luka Martin matches you too." Liv said again. "Well he does try a lot though." Bonnie said. "Oh whatever..i just want my best friend and my brother to have a thing. How is that bad?" Liv said again and went back into her cabin. Bonnie smiled to herself and was ready to leave when sheheard her mother's voice. "Miss Bennett... Where do you think you are going without your medalion?" Abby yelled and Bonnie sighed. "Mom give it back to grams. She will be mad if she doesn't find it." Bonnie replied to her mother. "You need it. You risk yor life getting away from the cabins all by yourself. What if a vampire comes at you? Or a hunter? Or a werewolf?" Abby said worried. "Yeah fine ok. I have my magic." Bonnie said and left leaving a worried Abby behind. "She reminds me of you." Ayanna said approaching her sister. Abby smiled. "No she was much worse." Lucy replied standing now by the side of her sisters. She was the second daughter of Sheila Bennett and she had a daughter Emily Bennett. The older one was Ayanna who gave birth to Qetsiyah. And then there was Abigail or just Abby who gave birth to Bonnie and Jamie. And that pretty much completed the Bennett coven. Then there was the Parker coven. The older sister was Josette or just Joe Parker. Then there was Malackai or just Kai Parker and then the twins Olivia or just Liv and Luke Parker. And there was the Martin coven with the father Jonas Martin and his two children Luka and Gretta Martin. There were also some other small covens around but noone had the power of that three.

In the town Klaus Mikaelson the leader of the werewolf packs was talking to his loyalest followers , the pack of the Lockwoods who stood by his side when everyone questioned him for being the alpha since he was of the same mother as the leaders of the vampires, the faction of the Mikaelsons or the Originals as they used to call them. He got his father's gene though so he was a werewolf. By his side he also had his girlfriend Hayley Marshall. She was the only one left from her pack so they kind of united their loneliness. It wasn't true love though since Hayley had an affair with Tyler Lockwood. Noone knew about it and those who knew like Tyler's uncle Mason were covering for them fearing Klaus' wrath. Carol Lockwood,Tyler's mother was litterally hanging from Klaus' lips. "We will hit them while they are unprepared. They will fear us. They will begg us for mercy. It's time to show them who has the upper hand. It's time to show them which one of the species is superior. It's our time." He said and smiled when he heard the audience clapping. He wanted to win this war badly. It was nice to know that the rest of his species had his back especially after the hunters' victory at the north borders. He climbed off the stage and headed to his horse. "Where are you going?" Hayley asked following him. "Woods." Klaus replied. "Have your eyes open for witches." She yelled at him and Klaus laughed. "Witches are the least of my problems right now." he said and left.

As for the vampires...Klaus' mother was a vampire. One of the first...Esther Mikaelson. She was rulling among the vampires along with her children. Elijah,Kol and Rebekah Mikaelson. In the vampire species a well known faction was the one of the Salvatores. It consisted of three siblings and two close family friends. Damon,Stefan and Sarah Salvatore and Lexi Branson with Enzo. Then there were the Zhus. A mother and her daughter. Perla and Anna. They were all gathered in the palace's dining room talking abou their next move. "We are sorry for your loss." Rebekah said to the Salvatores referring to their uncle Zack who had lost his life in the battle last week. "Well we still have him in our hearts." Sarah said looking at her two brothers. "Where is your brother?" Esther whispered to Elijah. "Probably grabbing a bite in the woods." Elijah said and Esther sighed. Kol was always the only one giving her a hard time and the troublemaker. He was trying to get advantage of the witches who were always against war. Other species wouldn't understand them. They were against war but if it came down to it they were pretty good at causing physical pain or even kill. By taking advantage...of course we mean feeding on them.
