Dear Newt, Here’s your first piece of advice for surviving in the French Quarter without me: Stick around Cami. Your second piece: Hayley isn’t as scary as you think. Be nice to her, respect her, and the same will be given back to you. Promise. And here’s a favor that I ask: I know you must be confused. The first question to pop in your head is most likely why I’m not just texting you this. Or calling you. That’s because, I think if I do that, I’ll chicken out to what I want to say and end up saying something that doesn’t matter whatsoever. So you get a note. I think it’s more romantic memorable anyways. I’m still in New Orleans. Just hidden. There’s i You have too In this life that Cami, Hayley, and I are living, it’s not normal. I know it sounds cliché, but just bare with me, okay? Things aren’t as they seem. As I’m sure you know, New Orleans has a lot of history. In history books, websites, articles, there’s rumors. Rumors about women being able to do things out of the ordinary, about men who are stronger than the average human and can live forever, about families that turn into wolves on the full moon. Rumors have to come from somewhere, right? I’m a witch. Other people we know, who we’ve talked too. Witches, vampires, werewolves, people called hybrids who are half vampire, half werewolf. I can’t tell you who, because it’s not mine to tell. But I can tell you about me. I’m 16. I turn 17 on November 13th. I first got a cell phone only a few months ago. The Great Gatsby is my favorite classic. The 50’s and 60’s are most likely my favorite era. I’m a witch. I used to be a part of a coven. I used to be something called a Harvest Girl — meant to be sacrificed to grant our coven with more magic in the future. I was scared. I am scared. I will most likely always be scared. I don’t like burgers. I’ve died twice. It was a slit across the neck. I’ve never been kissed. I’ve killed a group of witches after they tried to get to me and hurt Cami in the process. Never had a boyfriend. I watched 3 other girls die in front of me. I suck at science. I’ve watched one of my best friends/could be boyfriend die because of me. I like classical music, jazz music. I care about Cami, Hayley, Rebekah, and a baby that I’ve never met. Josh is my best friend. My last best friend tried to kill Hayley’s baby and treated me like crap after coming back to life. I care about you. I don’t want you getting hurt. Advice number three: Don’t mess with Klaus or Elijah. I’ll deal with that. I’m where nobody knows, because I’ve done something that’s going to hurt people. If people ask about me, if you know where I am, say we had a fight, say you hate me. That I did something. Ask Marcel to compel you to forget about me, he’ll know what I mean. Don’t… forget about me. You, Josh, Cami, Marcel, I care about all of you. You in a I don’t - I can’t lose anyone I love care about. You are my top You and Cami are my top priority. But I’m going to keep you safe, all of you. Just don’t try looking for me, don’t go making deals, it won’t do you any good, not in this city. Just continue living. Please don’t forget about me. Yours Truly, Davina Claire
