The Extra Mikaelson
Waking up after seeing your dead body isn't something most people expect. Something else most people don't expect is waking up as a baby. And something most people definitely don't expect is waking up as a Mikaelson in the 10th century. A Mikaelson that most definitely was NOT supposed to exist.

I'll be starting this chapter in the episode when Klaus takes over Alaric's body. It will start in the end of the episode Know Thy Enemy and go from there.

"Are you done yet Maddox?" An airy voice with a British accent floats to Kathrine's ears.
"I will be in a moment, Charlotte."
A quiet sigh was heard and then a chuckle. "Nik always did have a flair for dramatics."
Katherine's eyes flutter open at the name and she looks in front of her to see a young blonde girl standing next to a chair where a young man is sitting. In front of the chair, a warlock is holding his hands next to the man's head and chanting.
She struggles to sit up and looks around the small room. The blonde girl tilts her head slightly to the left as Katherine pushes herself up.
The warlock stops chanting and the man's eyes open. He pulls the IV out of his arm and stands as the warlock bows.
Katherine stands up shakily and the three turn around to face her.
"Alaric?" She whispers.
The man smirks slightly and takes a step closer.
Katherine runs to the door and rips it open only to find she can't leave.
Katherine turns around and the man is standing behind her, the blonde girl blankly looking at her over his shoulder.
"Zdravei, Katerina." He walks closer and lightly grabs her face. "I have missed you."
Katherine looks back fearfully. "Klaus."
The man smiles.
"Nik, how's the body?" The blonde girl asks flippantly, blinking slowly at Klaus.
Klaus lets go of Katherine's face and turns to face the girl.
"A bit weak, but it'll do." Klaus grins, closing the door.
"Well, at least this will get you closer to the new doppelganger and her little friends." The girl says.
"Yes, although I still don't understand why you won't go to the school." Klaus replies, walking away from the girls.
"Please, I don't want to deal with hormonal teenagers all day." She scoffs, walking in the opposite direction of Klaus and towards the kitchen. "But you can enjoy being a history teacher."
Katherine looks in between the two, confused.
"Oh yes, Katerina. This Charlotte Mikaelson, my sister." Klaus waves his hand in the direction Charlotte walked.
"Hello doppelganger." Comes her voice from the kitchen. "We never met in the 1400's because I was busy."

"Lottie!" Alaric/Klaus's voice rings through the apartment.
"Hm?" She hums, zipping next to him.
"I'm heading to the school now, I trust you won't let Katerina out of your sight?" Klaus said, running a hand through his hair
Charlotte raised an eyebrow. "I can watch her, but I don't think she'll be able to get up with that knife in her leg."
Klaus rolled his eyes and turned to look at his sister. "She's crafty, sister."
Charlotte blinked up at Klaus slowly before nodding. "Yeah, I'll make sure the doppelbitch stays in her cage."
Klaus smirks and nods, walking towards the door. "Good."
"Ah, what was that Klaus?" Charlotte called quietly, eyes darkening.
"Thank you, Lottie." Klaus replied automatically, cursing himself in his mind.
"Mmm, you're welcome Nik." Charlotte hummed, walking towards the chair where Katherine was sitting quietly. "Have a good first day, try not to kill anyone."
Klaus shook his head and walked out of the door. "No promises, sister."
The door closed behind Klaus and Charlotte looked over at Katherine.
"You really do look exactly like Tatia." Charlotte mumbled, tilting her head to the side.
"I didn't know Klaus had another sister." Katherine replied back, looking around the room, pulling out the knife.
"I wouldn't expect you to, most people don't" She said monotonously, pulling a cell phone out of her pocket.
"Why not?" She pushed the knife back in, cringing.
"Haven't you heard the stories?" She smirked darkly, looking up from her phone.
Katherine paused. "What stories?" She pulled the knife out and stabbed herself again, grunting quietly.
Charlotte snickered, putting her phone back into her pocket and sitting on the bed. "Oh, love. The stories about the sister who hunts with Kol, who holds authority over Elijah, who drains those who hurt Rebekah, and the sister who has never been daggered by Klaus."
Katherine's eyes widened and pulled out the knife again. "She doesn't exist, that's just a myth that the Mikaelson's made to scare others." In goes the knife.
Charlotte stood and waltzed over to Katherine, a sadistic glint in her eyes. "Well darling, I'm right in front of you."

"Hello class." Alaric cleared his throat. "What are we learning today?"
"With the decade dance tonight we've been-" the girl was cut off by a phone ringing.
Alaric blinked and looked down at his pocket, pulling out his phone. "Really?"
He flipped open the phone and the class went silent. "I'm teaching right now, try not to call me during class." He closed the phone and was about to put it in his pocket when it dinged.
Alaric sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. "What were you saying?"
"We've been covering the sixties all week." The girl finished, leaning back in her chair.
"Right, the sixties." DING DING DING DING.
He pulled out his phone and looked down. The messages read:
From CM
Oh poor you, teaching classes.
From CM
At least act like a human
From CM
Don't mention how crappy the 60s were.
From CM
Also try not to freak out the little doppelganger, we need her.
From CM
I'm bored and Katerina is just sitting there stabbing herself and grunting
Alaric looked up from his phone with a deadpan expression. He turned around and grabbed a piece of chalk writing on the board.
"The sixties. I wish there was something good I could say about the sixties," he turned to the class. "but they actually kind of sucked. Except for the Beatles of course, they made it bearable. Uh, what else was there?" He paced around the front of the classroom. "The Cuban missile thing, the..we walked on the moon. There was Watergate."
"Watergate was in the seventies Ric." Elena called out, amused.

"Oh that bastard is ignoring me." Charlotte complained, throwing her phone onto the bed. "Can you believe that? Im going to snap his neck when he gets here."
Katherine grunted. "He's in a human body now." Grunt "He would die."
Charlotte turned to face her and pouted. "Oh yeah. This plan sucks."
She walked over to Katherine and looked into her eyes. "Stop stabbing yourself."
Katherine sighed in relief and pulled the knife out of her leg.
Charlotte grabbed it and threw it into the wall carelessly. "Right, now-" Ding
She flashed to the bed and flipped open her phone. "Nik."
"Hello, Lottie."
"You've been ignoring me."
"I was in the middle of something."
"Well, what have you done to the little doppelganger?"
"I don't know what you're-"
"Don't try to lie to me Niklaus." She growled. "I know you better than you know yourself. Let me guess you compelled some worthless student to freak her out by asking her to, hm, save you the last dance at the decade dance?"
There was a pause. "Yes, how did- Nevermind. Anyways, I have to go to the Salvatore's home and talk about myself."
Charlotte grinned slightly. "Don't pretend you won't enjoy it. See you tonight Nik."
Klaus chuckled. "Of course, sister."
Charlotte hung up the phone. Alaric walked into the boarding house.

The door opened and Klaus strolled in.
"I'm back."
Charlotte waved lazily from the bed. "Oh, Katerina should be waking up soon."
Klaus paused and turned towards Katherine. She was laying on the floor, a knife in her throat.
"I got bored and you took too long. She wouldn't stop whining about wanting someone to kill her so I jammed that in her throat to shut her up, I think I hit her spinal cord because she passed out."
Klaus walked over to Katherine and pulled out the knife. "And when was this?"
"30, 40 seconds ago."
Kathrine gasped and sat up quickly. "What the hell?"
"See, told you so." Charlotte stood from the bed and open the wardrobe. "Now, let's find you something to wear to the dance. Gotta make a good impression." She shuffled through clothes as Klaus spoke to Katherine.
"You were right, the witch is all juiced up and aiming to kill." Charlotte pulled out a black shirt and threw it at Klaus.
He quickly put it on and turned towards her as Katherine responded. "That's terrible."
Charlotte shook her head and Klaus pulled off the shirt. "We're going to have to kill her Maddox."
Charlotte walked over to the drawers and opened one, pulling up a fake bottom to reveal weapons. "Nik, I think you've caught yourself a hunter."
Klaus walked over pulled out a crossbow, turning to Katherine. "Who is this guy again?"
"He's a local Vampire hunter." She replied.
"Oh, that explains his clothes." Charlotte nodded her head, turning to Klaus. "Just wear that."
"All I could find," Maddox walks over with a glass. "Guy likes his bourbon."
"Maddox, glass." Charlotte said flatly, sitting back on the bed as Maddox brought her a glass.
"I knew there was something I liked about him." Klaus said, taking a drink. "Ah. There's a high school dance. And I'm gonna need you to take out the witch bitch."
"If she has that much power she can sense me coming from a mile away." Maddox explained as Charlotte swallowed the last bit of her drink. "I won't be able to get near her, you have to do it."
"In that body?" Charlotte spoke up, walking over and sitting on the counter. "She could easily hurt him. Alaric him, not Klaus him."
Klaus tilted his head towards her in agreement, looking over to Maddox.
"No witch can handle channeling that much power. It'll kill her. It would kill me." Maddox reasons. "You just have to make her use it."
"What like provoking her to death?" Klaus asks as Charlotte hums in acknowledgement.
"It won't take long. Just keep attacking until it kills her. His body, Alaric's, will last longer than hers will."
"How he's human." Klaus asks.
"I can help in that department." Maddox smirks. "I can do a spell to protect you."
Klaus smirks and looks over at Katherine who looks away.
"Well Nik, isn't that perfect?" Charlotte grins darkly.
"Yes, yes it is."

The door to the apartment is pushed open and Klaus waltzes in smiling. "And the witch is dead."
Charlotte looks up at her brother and tilts her head. "Are you sure?"
He nods. "Yes, I watched it happen."
She hums. "Well, you know witches. They're the tricky types."
Next Morning
"I'll be back as soon as I can." Maddox says from the door.
"Yes, do hurry, I'm anxious to get out of this body." Klaus replies, grabbing the door.
Katherine stands in the kitchen, pouring coffee into two cups.
"And if you get hung up, call me. You know how impatient I get." Klaus says before closing the door.
Katherine sets the coffee in front of Charlotte who is sitting on the counter and holds the other cup out to Klaus. "Where is he going?"
"To retrieve me." Klaus smiles, grabbing the cup. "So I can get out of this bad hair-do."
"Are you sure-" Katherine starts.
"Oh hush Katerina, the misfits already know that he's in Alaric's body. I'm tired of looking at that face every time I speak to my brother." Charlotte orders, compelling Katherine.
Katherine tries to open her mouth but no sounds come out.
"I have the moonstone, the witch, and the doppelganger waiting in the wings." He breathes out. "Oh, I am ready to break this curse."
Katherine tilts her head.
"He's doing it here because it's the birthplace of the doppelganger. It doesn't matter how many people are here to stop him, it has to happen here." Charlotte explains, sipping at her coffee. "Of course, you wouldn't know that. Since you betrayed him and made us look for you for 500 years." She blankly looks at Katherine, anger sparking in her blue eyes.
"Oh but I did find your birthplace." Klaus says, standing in front of Katherine. "And I slaughtered your family. So I guess we're cool."
"Let's just hope that Mini-ganger isn't as stupid as you." Charlotte hops off of the counter and places her cup in the sink. "I might just kill the entire town myself."
Katherine looks her in the eyes. "Oh go ahead and speak." Charlotte compels.
"She won't run." Katherine grits out. "She'd die before letting anyone she loves get hurt."
"And that is exactly what I'm counting on." Klaus says, walking to the door and grabbing his coat. "You can't leave until I tell you to." He compels. "Oh and sister, be a dear and don't take off her compulsion."
"This time I won't, promise." She grins, tapping her fingers on the counter.

Loud music plays through the apartment, Katherine is dancing around the room and drinking bourbon.
Charlotte is sitting on the counter watching her quietly.
The keys jingle and Klaus unlocks the door, pulling it open as Katherine flashes to the couch and sits down.
"You mind turning that down?" He asks, throwing his keys to the side.
Katherine grabs the remote and turns the music down as Charlotte hops off of the counter.
"Why so grumpy?" Katherine asks.
"Well, this body has outlived it's usefulness." Klaus says.
"Do you want a drink?" Katherine offers as Charlotte moves to the fridge to grab a blood bag.
"No Katerina, I don't want a drink."
"Come on, it might loosen you up." She offers, walking closer and holding out the bottle.
Klaus smiles and grabs the bottle before throwing it against the wall and grabbing Katherine. "What I want," he looks into her eyes, "is for you to sit down, and shut up."
Katherine backs away and sits silently on the couch as Maddox walks in.
"Maddox, what took you so long?" Charlotte asks before Klaus can.
"He's got a lot of luggage." He says, as men walk in carrying suitcases.
Klaus looks to the door and sees a dark skinned girl walk in. "Greta. Finally."
"Hello, love." She says, walking towards him.
In the back, Charlotte is pointing to where the guys should put the luggage and smirking.
"Hello." He says back.
"Nice body." She looks up at him. "You ready to get out of it?"
"Mhm." He hums, looking back at her.
Two men wheel in a large box and Charlotte walks calmly over to the side of it.
"Well, dear brother. Let's get you back where you belong." Charlotte smirks, looking over at the witches.
CMCMCMCMCM
Greta and Maddox sit inside a circle of candles chanting. In front of them stand Alaric and Klaus's box.
Katherine and Charlotte stand outside the circle, one looking on in worry and the other smirking.
The flames flare up and the witches look up. Alaric gasps and looks around confused, his gaze landing on Katherine.
"Elena?" He asks, before falling to the floor unconscious.
Maddox gets up and opens the box, Klaus steps out.
"Now that's more like it." He grins, British accent back in place.
"Welcome back, Nik." Charlotte steps into the circle and hugs her brother.
