Secretly Alive (Helena, The Vampire Diaries)

What Really Happened

Hey so this story is really weird and probably will be hard to follow so... Sorry haha. (Role of Henrik is Dylan O'Brian.)

Henrik's life is to be saved the night of the full moon.

"Messing with the balance is not what magic was made for!" Ayanna argued with the ancestors.

Henrik's death shall lead to the Mikaelson's deterioration. They must be vampires, but Henrik must also cheat death. No penitently shall strike you.

The spirits tried to ease Ayanna's mind which didn't seem to change. She didn't want to help bring such an evil into the world, but if the spirits asked this of her, she had to do it. She would cast a protection spell on the young boy, and on the day of his eighteenth birthday, Ayanna would turn Henrik into the sixth's immortal man. It was set in stone. She would have to hide him four years. Something that would be impossible if she was not a witch.

On the day of his eighteenth birthday he must leave the village. He shall not return until 2010. In that year it is crucial he find your ancestor Bonnie Bennett. Do you understand your task?

The ghostly woman asked.

"I understand my task." Ayanna replied.

Good. Now wake.

Ayanna awoke in her cottage. She knew that the full moon was tonight. She needed to see Henrik now. She couldn't let the universe down. The witch that came to her last night showed her all that would happen if Henrik did not survive. He was needed more than ever in the twenty first century.

Minuets before sundown Ayanna pulled the teenager into her small cottage a little down the ways from his own.

"Lady Ayanna." Henrik said. He was a little punk, but he had manners.

"Henrik, do you know why you are here?" Ayanna asked. The boy shook his head 'no.' she explained to him what would go down tonight. She would have to put a protection spell on him. He wouldn't awaken until he was safely back in Ayanna's care. When she received the boy she wold cloak him so that only she was aware of his existence. On the night of his eighteenth birthday he would become what the rest of his siblings were- Original Vampires.

He was at a loss for words, but nodded along. He knew Ayanna would never make up such a tall tale, it must have been true, and if he had to do this to protect his family, he would.

That night Ayanna charmed him and sent him off to watch the men turn to beast with his favorite brother Niklaus.

Henrik and Klaus snuck away from the caves and climbed up the tree's to watch the transformation that's when it happened.

The men were in full wolf form down below, and that's when the branch holding Henrik up snapped, causing him to fall to his death. Well- temporary death..

"MOTHER!" Niklaus called out in shame, fear, and regret. All the Mikaelson's ran out and froze as they saw the sight in front of them. The youngest Mikaelson was dead.

"Esther, my dear. Let me take the body and put him to rest." Ayanna opted. Esther looked at her sons dead body, then at her husband and nodded her head. Ayanna scooped up the boy and carried him to her hut. The very second she stepped into her house and closed her door Henrik woke up.

The next full moon Esther turned her remaining family into Vampires.

--Time Lapse--

The night of Henrik's eighteenth birthday approached. Ayanna used the last of Tatia's blood to turn him into an Original Vampire.
