"You're going to do what?!", screamed Caroline.

"Hailey found a witch strong enough to do the body jump spell. You know, the Klaus specialty?", answered Tyler.

"So you're going to put him in someone else's body, and then what?"

"We encase the body in concrete and then bury it."

"Why not just desiccate him like Bonnie did?"

"Because to do that spell you have to stop a human heart. I'm a little short of volunteers."

"Well who's dumb enough to volunteer their body to be a Klaus sublet?"

"We're putting him in John's body."

"And John just volunteered to be Klaus' host?"

"Yeah he did. He was one of the first hybrids and he wants to be the one to end it. And its not forever, just for the hybrids to have enough time to disappear."

"Ok, so what are you gonna do? Run away and hide with them?
"No im going to stay here with you and finish our senior year. Then we can run away together. All you have to do is distract Klaus for the day."

3rd. Caroline keeps Klaus busy at the party

"Hey sorry, I know im late."

"If im going to be your friend in your time of need. Then you need to work on your punctuality. Im in a crisis. Where are you?"

"Im at my house. Why, what's wrong?"

"My boyfriend is a dumbass. Wait and why are you at your house? Arent you trying to keep your distance from Elena?"

"Well she's not here anymore. Damon went up to the lake house with Jeremy and Bonnie. So I guess her house is safe for her again. Hey listen I got Klaus to tell me a little bit ore about this hunter sword. You know that map in Jeremy's tattoo? "

Caroline stood their confused.

"The sword decodes It. Its literally the key to finding the cure." he finished

"Klaus told you this?"

"Yeah, why?"

"And did he happen to hand over the sword for safe keeping?"

"Ugh, what do you think?"

Caroline sighed.

"Caroline, whats wrong?"

"We need to get our hands on that sword, like today. Tyler and his hybrids are taking out Klaus, tonight."

Stefan had no idea what to do.

"Ill distract Klaus at the grill while you get that sword."

Caroline hung up and went to find Klaus.

Caroline is looking at the snowflake painting Klaus donated when he approaches her.

"Here to steal Tiny Tim's crutches?"

"Dickens was a dark man. You'd of liked him."

"Nice snowflake by the way."

"Is my work really that literal?"

"I'm serious", her voice lowered, "There's something lonely about it."

He gave her a look and said, "Im going to take that as a compliment. Could I offer you some champagne?"

"Can't too many adult, prying eyes. Don't wanna be a high school cautionary tale at the next town meeting."

"Well then it's a good thing that the high school part is nearly over."

She just looked at him for a second thinking.

"If we're going to be nice to each other, then I'm going to need that glass of champagne."

He smirked and replied "Is that our thing?"

She scoffed and said "We don't have a thing."

"Allow me." He said as he left to get her the drink.

She then took out her phone and texted Stefan. He's here. Go.

Stefan checked the safe where Klaus had the sword earlier but it was gone. He checked the house but he couldn't find anything.

Caroline meets Stefan in the alley next to The Grill.

"Hey."

"Hey."

"Did you find the sword?"

"Nope."

"Well what are we gonna do now?"

"Klaus is the only shot we have at finding the cure. We need him. Tyler has to call it off."

"Well that's not gonna happen", said Tyler appearing out of nowhere. "You told him? I've had twelve hybrids sworn to secrecy for a month, I have Hailey and a witch risking their lives and you're blabbing my plan to him?"

"All I'm asking you for is a little bit of time, ok", asked Stefan.

"How long? An hour, a day? Because every minutes that goes by that we don't do this they're at risk. You and Klaus already served one of them up for Jeremy to kill."

He looked at Caroline but all she could do was look at the ground.

"I don't owe you anything Stefan. We're taking him out", he said as he walked away.

Stefan flashed in front of him before he could go any further. "I'm sorry but I cant let you do that Tyler."

Caroline finally spoke up. "Stefan", she whispered.

"I'm sorry but I cant."

"Stefan", she said in a warning tone.

Stefan turned around to see that he was surrounded by hybrids.

"Sorry man, but you don't have a choice."

Tyler and the hybrids took Caroline and Stefan to the cellar and kept them their.

Caroline tried to flash out of the cellar but she was stopped by one of the hybrids. He broke her wrist and chained her and Stefan up.

"You wont be able to keep us here for-" her sentence was cut off when the hybrid slapped her across the face.

She decided it would be best to stay quite and wait for something to happen. A little later the girl hybrid with blinder hair gave them a pleading look and unchained her and locked Stefan in a separate cell.

Darkness had just fallen whenTyler went into the cellar.
