DISCLAIMER! I do not own any of the Vampire Diaries or the characters! If I did, Elena would just choose Damon, Rebekah and Stefan would just finally be together, Elijah would find Katherine and love her forever, Matt would find himself someone human and not crazy, and Klaus would fall for me. ;)

AUTHOR'S NOTE: Alright, well, this is my first Klaus story. Check out my Joseph Morgan (the man who plays Klaus) story as well when it's up. I hope everyone enjoys! It's a little different, Elena is slightly OCC but, that's because she's sick and tired of everything her loved ones and her have been through. Esther and Finn are not trying to kill Klaus or any of the others in this story, they did not run away and neither did any of the others such as Elijah or Kol. The story will have humorous fillers as well as real plot. Just warning you, it's rated M for mild language and possible lemons. This chapter is shorter than what I had hoped though. The chapter after the next will probably be a huge time skip, to the part where the next doppelganger is born.

Chapter One – In Which the Doppelganger Makes a Deal

It was eating at her, the pain of not knowing when or where he would strike. Every single one of her family and friends were in danger, if they weren't already dead. Her heart was racing as she entered the Mikaelson house. Of course, she wasn't going in there without informing Klaus first, but she still feared that Rebekah was somewhere, waiting to sink those fangs into Elena's neck.

"Elena, I can hear that heartbeat anywhere, come in, love," Klaus called from what seemed to be a bar that was blasting music. Elena walked in, taking in the appearance of the room which was perfectly clean, with the exception of two women, who were most likely compelled. They were giving him alcoholic drinks as well as ones from their neck, or at least, that's what it looked like from the bite marks on their neck and chest.

Elena couldn't be more disgusted when Klaus quickly joked, "I'd offer you a drink, but, you're not a vampire nor someone I peg to drink during a serious conversation."

"Well, I guess you pegged me right, can these girls go and the music go down?" Elena said uncomfortably sitting on the couch from across the room to him. Klaus shrugged and turned to them.

"Ah, you're such a fun sucker, love," Klaus teased, with a smile playing at his lips. "You are to wait in the bedroom until I come up, I have no problems with you starting without me," he whispered to the girls, and then finished with a wink.

The giggling girls hurried up the stairs to a huge bedroom and swiftly shut the door. Elena sighed. "Anyway, onto business, what can I do to make sure you leave all of us alone?"

"You can't possibly expect me to leave you alone, sweetheart, not with that precious Petrova blood running through your veins."

Elena was disheartened as he said this. Of course he wasn't just going to leave because she wanted him to but, she needed Klaus gone, fast. It was beginning to show that he wouldn't be killed so quickly, but maybe if she made a negotiation with the hybrid, she could have a peaceful life for the first time in what seemed like forever. Elena decided to go for a different approach to get at least something out of him.

"Why did you even want to be a hybrid?" She gulped back the question as the deadly Original's ever changing eyes set on her. He flashed a smile, showing his razor sharp white teeth and the indents of dimples in his cheek.

"Because, I am now the most powerful thing on Earth, I am impossible to overcome, my dear doppelganger," Klaus murmured, softly but surely. "However, I'll let you in on a little secret. I will be growing tired of my hybrids soon and there is one thing I seek the most; a companion, but not just any companion, love. I need my doppelganger by my side, the human one. It is said that we would be the most powerful pair in the world," with each word Klaus stepped closer to her in the dim lit room. "To truly be indestructible, I must mix my blood with that of the doppelganger to produce an heir."

Elena shook her head furiously at the idea of settling down with Klaus, of having a demon grow inside of her, of doing all that and never seeing Jeremy or Stefan or Damon or any of her friends ever again. When she opened her mouth, she was firm in her answer.

"Never."

Klaus chuckled. "Oh, sometimes, you remind of my lovely Tatia. She was a fighter too. Okay, I can wait a bit. I'm not too impatient, and I'm going to need some company so the hybrids will do for now. Here's the deal. You and that little human, Matt is it?" Elena nodded. "Well, you two pop out a few kids, allow the Petrova bloodline to continue and I – I will wait for the next doppelganger. I shall call my witch to see when she will be born and then she is mine."

Elena slowly contemplated all of this information. Was she really going to do this? No more killing, no more fighting, no more fearing for any of her loved one's lives. Just a few babies and then she could be left alone from all of this. She could just settle down with Matt, Damon and Stefan would understand. Klaus wouldn't hurt any one, not even the doppelganger that would next appear… Elena looked up, tears in her eyes and mumbled, "You will leave the rest of us alone right, only taking her?"

Klaus looked over at her, as the tears slowly streamed down her beautiful face and nodded. "I will leave you all alone. The girl will stay with her family but, I will want to be there for the birth and be able to presents, and you know, spoil the little one. At the age of eighteen, she will be sent to me."

"O-Okay, I can take that deal," Elena said, and as she did, a weight lifted off of her shoulders. The big bad wolf will be gone, only with one of her descendents. "When everything is ready, tell me."

Klaus sighed and downed his drink as she turned to leave. "You know, Elena, I'm really not that bad."

Elena balled her fists and shook her head as she opened the door. "Don't even joke like that, Klaus."

As soon as she left the house, she felt as though she had made a deal with the Devil. But she was still relieved to finally be free. She took out her phone and called Damon, hoping he wouldn't explode at her.

"I made a deal with Klaus to leave us alone… And you're not going to like it…"
