Klaus

I slam my fist up against the invisible wall, anger and fury running through my hyper-active veins. The vampire brother Damon is laughing at me, thinking that his plan has finally worked. I'm trapped now. But this isn't over. I storm over to the sobbing blonde vampire and tug her by her hair to follow me. Whimpering, she does as she is told; following me and keeping her mouth shut.

"Good girl." I whisper in her ear before throwing her on the ground in front of me. "Get me out of here; otherwise Caroline will not have a pleasant time in here." I warn them with a smile. I can tell she is in pain, I am itching to pick her up and soothe the pain, but I can't.

The hybrid begins to cry, kneeling on the floor just outside the door. "Caroline." He whispers. "Baby, be strong." She nods her head, resting her forehead on clutched hands, already covered in the mud from the ground.

"Go, all of you leave." I order them. They are all in shock. I can tell. The young girl, Elena, stands her ground; she is too brave for her own good. I should have killed her a long time ago; it is too bad I need her. Her hands are shaking, portraying what she is really fearing. I have often wondered why so many of these people love her. She puts them in way too much danger. If only they had just handed her over to me- everything would have been a lot easier. But then, of course there are the brothers. Both turned by Katherine, both mesmerized by her evil blood.

Of course, who wouldn't be intrigued by Elena if they knew Katherine first? However, I know how Elena is different. Pure, is a word that some would use. Or perhaps, innocent? But surely we know her better than that? She is in love with two vampire brothers, stringing them along like puppets. And I am certain she has killed a vampire, at least one. But she is certainly a lot more pure than her witchy friend Bonnie.

Witch. Yes I know. The purest creatures or something. Just because they have a connection to the earth does not mean they do not have menacing evil blood rushing through the magic pours.

"I am not leaving!" The hybrid- Tyler- screamed. I found this highly amusing, he is one of the easiest to control here. Instead of mocking him, stealing a kiss from his girlfriend in front of him, or even simply taking her to the back of this tomb, away from his sight and ear shot. I don't do that. Instead, I crouch down to his level, look into his full dark eyes and smirked.

"You will leave. Take your friends and leave." I say it politely, well, as politely as an original vampire says anything. Tyler hesitates. I assume the sire bond is growing weak. Despite, this, he gets up slowly and gradually leaves the cave.

"Good bye Caroline." He whispers as he walks away. The rest of the crowd disperses slowly. Each sending desperate glances to Caroline who is still sobbing into the mud.

"I'll get you out of here." Bonnie murmurs to Caroline, resting her hand on Caroline's head, she could easily have come in and stayed with Caroline here for a few hours before leaving again. But you see; that's how much power I have. They are afraid. Frightened enough to attempt to kill me. Caroline nods meekly, her head between her knees. Bonnie gives a sympathetic smile before fleeing.

"Alone at last." I mutter, spitting on the floor as if it were them. Caroline's sobs grow louder as she rolls over and lies against the wall. Even through puffy eyes and shaking hand she is still beautiful. I watch her, for however long she cried, it felt like hours before she felt to fall asleep. She didn't open her eyes, she didn't want to.

Sighing, I sit next to her, picking her up lightly and huddling her to my chest. I'm not sure if she is noticing; she just keeps snuffling into my neck and muttering things that are inaudible to even my ears. I stroke her long platinum hair. I can understand her hate to me, and I guess that cannot change. Once we get out of here, I will go back to killing her friends, and she cannot like me. That doesn't stop me from wanting it so much…

"Tyler?" I freeze, she doesn't remember. "Tyler." She repeats. I don't say anything; just loosen my arms, so they are not so tight and protective around her. Her eyes gradually open, blinking rapidly to get any dust out of her eyes. Narrowing her eyes, she finally fixes her sight on me. She's out of my arms before I can say anything at all, and leaning against the wall opposite me, cowering away.

"W-What do you want?" She whimpers, sliding her back up the wall, attempting to get even further away from me in the confined space. I try to reach out, take her hand, comfort her, but she backs away, running further into the tunnel.

"Caroline, please!" I call after her, walking at human pace.

"Why did you drag me in here?" She snaps, suddenly in my face, her heels making her eyesight on level with mine. "Why did you have to drag me down with you?" It is hard seeing her so angry, it doesn't suit her, although pain is not something I like to see on her either- as strange as that is for me.

"Come on Darling, at least you are alive, that is something that can't be said for your friends once I get out of here." My eyes flash as I think of the pleasure, that satisfying feeling of death at my fingertips…

"Don't threaten my friends." She warns, her lips just inches from my mouth; her breath lingering on my throat.

"I already did." I growl, closing my hand into a fist around her petit wrist. This probably isn't a smart call, but I already know that a friendship may not be on the cards. She sighs, softly removing my fingers and taking a step back, her pale skin appearing darker in the soft candle light.

"That's no way to make friends Klaus, I've told you before." She swiftly moves away, flicking her hair and standing by a candle for warmth.

"Who said I want friends?" I smirk, sitting on a small bench that has been set up in the middle of the floor.

"We're not bad people you know?" She reminds me cocking an eyebrow and taking the candle from its slot. She sets it on the floor in front of me and sits beside it, hugging her knees to her chest. "Bonnie put these candles in here just for you. And she hates you!" Caroline laughs at herself- it's a beautiful sound.

"You don't seem mad anymore, or even sad." I say, more confused about her than ever before.

She shrugged, "what can I do about it? You're not going to kill me."

This seems odd to me, she was scared just minutes before, how can she change all of a sudden, and be so sure? "How can you be certain?"

"Because, Klaus. I know you." And with that, she blows out the candle, flooding us with darkness.

Thank you so much everyone who reviewed! I love you so much so please continue!

I am continuing and making this a longer story, so if you have any suggestions please let me know!

I'm sorry if this is a bit short, I am making them longer.
