Inspiration has struck! I borrowed the film Romeo and Juliet (the one with Leonardo in it) from a friend and have been watching it all morning. I love it, even though I don't understand half of what they're saying!

So, in short, I have decided to write a Damon/Elena fic based on Romeo and Juliet. The story just never grows old, does it? It's timeless, the way two people can love each other despite anything. Don't worry, it won't be a tragedy – at least, I'm not planning to be.

Sorry, I know I sound dead sappy! Like I said, I watched Romeo and Juliet, and it tends to make me write and speak weird.

One thing: I tried to upload something on my Document manager, but it said I had used up the fifteen spots and I needed to covert my stories in chapters/stories? How do I do this? Don't worry, for now I'll just delete some old stories/chapters.

Disclaimer: I do not own Vampire Diaries or Romeo and Juliet.

Love's Battle

Prologue

In the town of Mystic Falls is where we lay our scene. In this once-quaint town, two families rival one another. The quarrel is not remembered as the two families battle one another for power, their anger spilling among the rest of the townspeople. Many innocent die from this long lasting fight.

Though through this bitter tragedy, love emerges. This love, though reluctant, is pure and sweet, as innocent and naive as the blue sky. But can these two lovers end the quarrel between their two rivalling families? Or will they too become victims of a quarrel as old as time itself?
