"More Than A Petrova 2: Legacies"

Prologue:

Disclaimer: I don't own the characters of Vampire Diaries or of Supernatural; those belong to their original creators. The way it's all stringed together is of my making. No profit is being made out of this (*sigh* unfortunately). Any recognizable Supernatural aspects/dialogue comes from [8x12 – "As Time Goes By"].

Summary: Sequel to "More Than A Petrova". After almost two months of no supernatural attempts on her life, Elena thought her summer before her senior year would be just as normal as all the others…that is, until Dean Winchester calls with another discovery he thought Elena would want to know about, a discovery that gives her a new perspective on her role in the supernatural world.

Main Time Frame: June 2014 – roughly 6 weeks after the events of "More Than A Petrova"

Ages: Dean Winchester (Jan. 24, 1979 = 35 years old), Sam Winchester (May 2, 1983 = 31 years old) and Elena Gilbert (June 22, 1996 = 17 years old)

A/N #1: This new story posting is in honor of Jensen Ackles' birthday as he plays Dean Winchester on Supernatural (and he's also one of my favorites). So Happy Birthday Jensen!

A/N #2: Additional comments at the end to avoid spoilers. Warning: SPN-timeline has been compressed with dates altered.

Dayton, Ohio:

"When do you think we'll arrive?" Sam Winchester questioned from inside the bathroom of their most recent motel room. He was taking his turn in the bathroom while his older brother Dean got finished getting dressed in the main room.

"Hopefully by nightfall." Dean stated before he picked up his shoes to put them on.

After they finished up a case involving Charlie Bradbury and her gang of LARPers in Farmington Hills, Michigan, the brothers had decided that it was time to go back and visit Mystic Falls, especially Elena. Usually it would be a 10-hour drive but Dean was too tired when it came to driving like many lives depended on it; he missed the simplicities that came with road trips. Not only were they tired from the long drives and the rush of cases they've been getting after finding Kevin and reuniting with Castiel, but it's been just over a month since they've seen the youngest Winchester. The timing alone just seemed perfect enough for them.

Sam nodded from the bathroom before forgetting that Dean couldn't see him. "How does it feel?" He asked as he packed up his things.

Dean chuckled while knowing what Sam meant. The reason why they were going back to Mystic Falls was because tomorrow was June 22; Elena's eighteenth birthday. "I still can't believe it."

Before Sam could respond to his brother, there was a loud rattling sound come from where Dean was. Sam walked out of the bathroom only to find Dean staring at their closet door that started to glow with a weird sigil appearing on the wood. Before either brother could properly react, a flash of light was emitted from the door before a man in a blue suit jumped out. He landed in a crouched position after the door automatically shut behind him.

The brothers were tense as they watched the mystery man's every move as they slowly moved to corner him.

The crouched man suddenly looked up at the brothers with an urgent look. "Which of you is John Winchester?"

Sam and Dean looked at the man who wanted their deceased father with wide eyes.

Mystic Falls, Virginia:

Elena descended the stairs with a little bounce in her step as she headed for the kitchen. She was excited because not only was it the first weekend after her final exams (and technically the last weekend before school was out for the summer) but it was also the weekend that had her birthday. Since her birthday had landed on a Sunday this year, Caroline had insisted that Elena's massive eighteenth birthday bash be held on Saturday night (tonight) so that they could truly celebrate Elena becoming an official adult. During the last year, Elena hadn't been into parties as much as before her parents' death but she figured that she'd push through it because of the occasion…and the fact that it was just something normal for them to do.

The moment that Elena entered the kitchen, she was greeted with the sight of Jeremy rolling his eyes over his cereal as he tried to ignore the playful couple in the kitchen as they tried to cook breakfast; he had cereal to avoid their cooking. Elena couldn't help but smile at the sight. Since Jenna was told the truth about everything, she has gotten a lot closer to not only Elena but to Jeremy too. Jenna had even given Alaric another chance and now they were not only stronger than ever but they were currently teasing one another as they tried to salvage an edible breakfast.

"Morning Lena." Jeremy greeted with a mouthful of cereal. This caused Jenna and Alaric to stop and turn to face the last arrival.

Elena waved a bit as she made her way towards the coffee machine. "Morning everyone."

"Are you excited for tonight?" Jenna questioned her niece while Alaric finished up their attempt at breakfast.

Elena chuckled as she poured herself a cup of coffee. "Ask me about that in a few hours. Hopefully I'll know by then."

Jeremy and Jenna snickered and giggled, knowing already that Elena wasn't a fan of Caroline's extravagant parties, especially when she was the guest of honor.

"Have you heard from Dean?" Alaric questioned as he piled the food on a couple of plates. Since Dean had left Mystic Falls, he and Alaric have been staying in contact with Elena being the main topic of discussion between them, something neither of them minded.

Elena shrugged. "I talked to him a couple of days ago." She said as she tried to remember what Dean had told her on their frequent calls together; he would call her before and after a hunt just to reassure her that he was alive. "He said they had a case in Michigan and that they'll try to wrap it up in time." She finished with ease while inside she was hopeful yet worried for Dean and Sam.

Alaric nodded as he handed Jenna her plate. Jenna nodded her thanks before she sighed. "I still can't believe what those Winchesters do for a living." While she thought that what Sam and Dean did was courageous and noble, Jenna still couldn't believe how they could constantly run into the proverbial lion's den, especially after they had found Elena. After learning the truth, Jenna thought that Dean would stay in town to get to know Elena better. Sure he did that for a few weeks but she thought he'd stay a lot longer for Elena.

"If you ask me, the world needs more guys like that out there." Jeremy piped up as he finished up his cereal.

Jenna gave her nephew an inquisitive look. "What makes you say that?"

Before Jeremy could answer, the doorbell rang. Elena offered to answer it which left her out of the conversation that picked up between Jenna and Jeremy as Alaric ate in silence.

Elena was stunned to find a postal worker on her doorstep with a very large package in his arms. It looked like he really wanted to set it down somewhere.

"Good morning miss. I have a package for a Miss Elena Gilbert." The postal worker greeted (while reading the name off the clipboard) as he juggled the package in his arms with the clipboard resting on top of it.

Elena's eyes widened at the thought of that package being for her. "That's me." She stated before she gestured inside for him to place it on the side table; she never gave him a verbal invitation…she learned her lesson last time.

"Really? That's good news." The postal worker stated with a grin before he walked in to place the package down.

Elena exhaled when he had no problems entering her home.

The postal worker handed the clipboard to Elena once his hands were free. "Can you sign right here please?" He stated as he pointed to where he needed her signature.

Elena nodded before she took the clipboard. "Why is that good news?" She asked as she skimmed over where she needed to sign.

"We've had this package at the office for at least four years. It was predated and signed for. All we had to do was wait for the date to delivery it. We weren't even sure if you would be at this address when the time came to delivery it. Crazy right?" He explained to her while his eyes shifted between her and the package.

"Right. Here you go." Elena said as she handed the clipboard back to him. She was still trying to process the story he had told her; she couldn't think of anyone who'd wait that long in sending her a package. It was odd.

"Thank you and have a great day." The postal worker stated before he walked back to his truck.

"You too." Elena called out before she shut the door and moved towards the package. She could see a little dust on the package as well as the faded marks on the surface which only confirmed the guy's explanation even more.

Her eyes glanced over her name and addressed before it went to the 2010 postal mark that was imprinted near the return address. A return address that she didn't recognize with a sender that she's never met yet it sounded familiar to her.

Carver Edlund, she read from the return label on the package. Where have I heard that name before?

Timeline Clarifications: SPN episodes 8x07 to 8x12 aired over a 10 week period. In this story, I have 8x07+8x08 happening during the two weeks after Sam and Dean left Mystic Falls. 8x09+8x10 happened the following two weeks with 8x11 happening at the end of the following week (which then bleeds into the 6th week away from Mystic Falls).

A/N #3: And there you have it! I hope you all stick around to see what happens with these characters! Updates won't be as frequent as they were in the first story (which I hate but I have to warn you since I'm reaching the ending months of my semester (which has a lot of things due and lots of studying needs to be done). I hope I hear from you in a review! I have quite a plan in blending these two worlds together once again. *smile*
