Chapter 1

It's been week since I gained memories of my past life, my personality is not that much large different from the original Kol Mikaelson, I've just become more mature.

It's a surreal experience to reincarnate as a character and in a world, you watched on the tv screen in your youth but I don't really feel that different because I have been here for about nineteen years before regaining my memories.

What troubles me is the fact that, I only watched about like six seasons of the Vampire diaries and even jumped some episodes because I wasn't really a hardcore fan, I preferred Arrow and the Flash. It's even worse that I didn't even finish season one of the spinoff about my family; the Originals.

There is no use lamenting about it, if anything I have a major advantage of knowing some future events, which includes how my initial self died. Regarding my death in the TV show, all I can say is that it was just for the plot, if anything I don't even need to kill Jeremy Gilbert who killed me in the tv series.

The fools in future who want to release Silas can go ahead, rather it's even better since the idiot immortal wants to die then why should I prevent him, that would make one less threat to me and my family.

I feel a sting about losing my magic but if the choice were given to me, I would still choose to be an original vampire, although I was talented in magic, I don't think I would have reached Esther or Qetsyha's level.

Plus, there should be loopholes for me to regain my magic and still be an original vampire. I already know heretics will exist in the future but the plan to get magic back won't start now.

"Kol you're daydreaming again, you've been doing it since we became what we are" Rebekah snapped me out of my thoughts

"Well lovely sister we have nothing better to do since we are stuck indoors, nice dress you're knitting by the way" I reply to her with a coy smile

"Why are you suddenly nicer to me Kol-Mikael, not that I'm complaining but I know you have been ruthlessly hunting werewolves and bandits at night, so I just thought you would be more bloodthirsty" she said concerningly

"Don't worry Bekah, what father and mother did to us didn't just make us stronger it also increased our emotions, so I love my family more and hate some people more than I usually did"

"Just be careful Kol, Elijah and Nik have been distant since Tatia's death" Rebekah continued to which I rolled my eyes and she smirked and continued her knitting.

Rebekah and I never really liked Tatia, she had an innocent face but she was an attention whore who loved stringing along men. I just find it doubtful that she coincidentally fancied the two sons of the village chief and chose Elijah; the son he least dislikes. But I may be reading too much into it, rest in peace Tatia, your sacrifice made us stronger.

But Rebekah is right, this damn bloodlust is hard to get under control, I had to use every ounce of my self-control to direct it out of the village by preying on bandits and stray werewolves.

The hatred I have for werewolves is not only due to Henrik's death but also because they were bullies to the residents here, demanding crops and other goods that the village worked for at times. Mikael could fight them off, so their bullying didn't escalate.

Speaking of my family, Mother should be already done making daylight rings, our family already burned the white oak tree to the ground about two days ago but I'm pretty sure Mikael has a stake of white oak.

If only I regained my memories earlier, I would have focused more on physical combat and training. I say this because I have already gauged our respective strengths and figured out the cause of them differing.

Mikael is the strongest vampire amongst us. It's not due to Mother favoring him or anything when casting the spell, it's due to his physical state before he died and went into transition.

Putting it bluntly, Mikael when he was human could fight against werewolves in their human form, his human physical strength if put in comic book terms would have been peak human, that's why after he became a vampire, he is by far the strongest. If Niklaus and Elijah try to fight Mikael together they would get their asses handed to them.

After Mikael, Klaus and Elijah should be strongest, Elijah seems slightly stronger than Klaus but a fight between them is a coin toss.

That would leave me next, Klaus and Elijah are stronger than me admittedly but I don't think I would lose in a fight since the strength gap isn't by much and my reflexes are slightly faster than theirs, perks of reincarnation, I guess.

Finn and Rebekah should be the weakest in strength, I think Rebekah might be stronger than Finn in the near future since the blood he takes is just minute and he only takes to survive plus he was never really physically gifted before becoming a vampire.

Also Finn has already begun spiraling into self hatred, it's slight but it shows and I'm the only one who notices.

"Kol, I'm done making you and Rebekah's rings" my mother says as she enters the room.

"Finally, I can leave indoors" Rebekah sighs as she takes the ring from mother's hand

I took the ring from her hand

" I'll be back by sundown" I say before speeding out of our hut.

Arriving at the outskirts of the village to a cave, I enter the cave.

Inside there are several bandits and werewolves in chains.

"Please release us son of Mikael, we have family" one of the werewolves begged

"I'm sorry but I'm a boderline sociopath who just became a vampire and I'm quite famished"

Before the female wolf could react I sunk my fangs in her neck and started drinking, she struggled but to no avail.

I tried to control myself and stop but before I knew it, I already drained her.

"Well next"

It seems it's going to take awhile to regain control.
