Disclaimer: I do not own The Vampire Diaries or The Originals. This is purely a work of Fanfiction.

Author's Note:

This is not a full story but an OUTLINE of a story I may or may not write someday (probably not cause I'm lazy). It will also include scenes, dialogues, quotes, one-shots, and maybe even some full chapters.

The story is basically about a girl who accidentally travels to the time when the Originals were living in Mystic Falls. She builds a relationship which each of them which will affect the events in TVD.

I've only watched up to the beginning of Season 5 of TVD. Everything else I know about the characters I watched through videos on YouTube and googled. And because the ending of certain characters did not sit well with me, I've stopped watching it (for now) and have turned to Fanfiction.

~Part 1~

The story is introduced with POVs by the different members of the Mikaelson family. Each of their stories share their experience thus far and eventually lead to the scene where they find the OC.

~TGITW~

While the Mikaelsons were out hunting, they found a girl in the woods. The OC was found by Mikael and looked like she was suffering from the plague. Mikael brought her back to their home and was drawn to the OC because she reminded him of his oldest daughter who was killed by the plague.

When the OC was brought back to their home, Esther can feel a strong supernatural power coming from the girl.

When she first awakens, she is disoriented and starts speaking nonsense that the family could not understand. She is calmed down by Elijah who then asks her about her name. She tells them her name is Faith. She eventually recovers with help from Esther and becomes part of the family.

Appearance: Black hair, pale skin, red lips, brown eyes. Asian descent.

~TGITW~

As the story progresses, we see Faith's different relationships with each member of the Mikaelson family.

Faith and Mikael

Even though Faith looks nothing like his daughter, Mikael grows to see and love her as he did Freya.

Faith and Klaus

Faith did not like seeing Mikael abuse Klaus so she would always redirect Mikael's attention when he felt like abusing Klaus. This makes Klaus thankful to her.

Faith and Elijah

She builds a relationship with Elijah and on one particular night, Elijah touches her face gently and says how beautiful her black hair was, that it was beautiful like the night sky.

Faith and Esther

Esther is drawn to the girl with mix feelings of wariness, familiarity, awe, jealousy, and closeness like a daughter or a friend. Esther is also the one who recognizes that there's a strong supernatural power in the girl.

~SCENE~

One night when Faith was with Klaus.

Faith tells Klaus: "You know your mom recognizes my power right? That I have some sort of power? Promise me, promise me that you will never take Henrik out to see the wolves. Or else, something bad is going to happen. Promise me."

She looks at him with earnest and worrying eyes. Though taken aback at first, Klaus promises her. Unnoticed by the two, Esther overhears their entire conversation.

~TGITW~

Instead of Klaus though, it is Kol that takes Henrik who still ends up injured and dies.

Faith feels bad and thinks and wonders if she could even change the future at all.

Esther sees all this and realizes that Faith has the power to see the future.

~TGITW~

An incident occurs where Mikael chains up Klaus and calls him an abomination (similar to the scene in TO where Esther curses Klaus. It could be that Mikael does this in retaliation for Henrik's death because he blames Klaus for negatively influencing Kol and Henrik.

~SCENE~

Faith tries to stand up to Michael saying, "This is not right." Mikael restrains her by putting his hands on the side of her arms and moves her away. Mikael tells Finn to hold her back then he moves towards Klaus and continues to him beat up. The rest of the family watches helplessly as Mikael beats up Klaus. Faith begs and cries heartbreakingly for Mikael to stop. She struggles against Finn, pleading to be let go until she finally she catches Elijah's eyes and begs him: "Elijah do something. Save him."

Elijah feels like he should do something but has never felt more powerless.

~TGITW~

At some point in the story, it is revealed to the reader that Faith is actually someone from our world who was transported into the world of TVD/TO. She has watched the series and was empathic of the characters. She especially pitied Elijah and Klaus who had to suffer over the millennium and to die tragically. When she arrived in the TVD/TO world, she struggled at first to accept her situation but after making a connection with the Mikaelsons, she decides to change what will happen to them. Faith starts to see them as real people and not just characters in a story. However, when she falls for Elijah, she tries to suppress those feelings telling herself that he was just a fictional character.

~TGITW~

Later on, Esther captures Faith and ties her up in a chair and hides her in a hut without anyone knowing. Esther uses Faith's blood to create the Immortality Spell. She also uses her to suppress Klaus' werewolf powers. This leads to Faith's death.

During this time, Esther's children began to realize that Faith had been missing for a while and start searching for her. It is Klaus who discovers that Esther had killed Faith and was using her body for magic/power/research. In anger he fights with Esther and ends up killing Esther.

Though injured, Klaus draws close to Faith's body and caresses her face longingly. He cries out in pain at the thought of losing a person he loved. Eventually, he tears the ropes that bind Faith and brings her body into the cave of writings and hides her body inside a tunnel further into the cave. He lays her down gently, trying to remember every detail of her face (scene looks like Romeo and Juliet's death scene).

~TGITW~

The story fast-forwards to the present time in TVD, specifically on the night of illumination. Bonnie had just cast the Manifestation spell and the veil to the other side had temporarily been lifted.

Part 1 ends with this:

~QUOTE~

It was the night of illumination. The veil to the other side had dropped. Something strange was happening in Mystic Fall.

In the middle of the forest, deep into a set of caves, a once dead heart suddenly jolts back to life. A soft thumping noise could be heard as a heart started to beat. Da-thump. Da-thump. Da-thump.
