I. Am. Devastated.

Yeah, back to the story, here's your new chapter. I only own the plot and Lex.

I walked up onto their porch with Matt close behind me and knocked on it. We waited a while and no one answered so I knocked again, louder this time. The door finally opened and Damon was standing there with the bridge of his nosed pinched in his fingers.

"I'm assuming Jeremy called you so I'm not even going to ask," he said, moving to the side and letting Matt and me inside. "He's up in his room; he barricaded himself inside and won't talk to anyone. He's like an episode of Dawson's Creek without the hot chicks."

I ignored him and took Matt's hand in mine as we passed by Klaus in the hall. "You're almost as radiant as your sister, Alexandria. It must be in your blood, which I'm absolutely dying to taste…"

He came up to me and placed his pointer finger against the side of my neck, making my pulse race. I felt Matt tensing behind me but I squeezed his hand in reassurance. I stood tall and stared him straight in the eye, not backing down.

"You're going to move and let me get to Jeremy. I know you won't lay a hand on me because you love Caroline too much," I said defiantly, flaring my nostrils. "So back up and get out of my way."

He smirked before moving away, but then he moves so quickly it almost knocked me over. He had Matt pinned to the wall by his neck and his fangs were elongated, pressing against the skin of his throat. The noise I made couldn't have been human as pure, unadulterated fear coursed through my veins.

"Leave him alone, Klaus! You can't just kill people because you feel like it or because you're bored. People aren't your play things, dammit!" I shouted, hitting his back. "Leave Matt alone, don't you dare hurt him!"

He sighed before letting Matt down and pulling his fangs back in. "You're a livewire, little Forbes. It's a very attractive quality to have, just ask your sister. She seems to pull it off with an ease that you lack."

I ran over to Matt and placed my hand on his neck, checking to make sure he was okay. He wasn't hurt, just a little bit shook up. I held his hand tightly in mine as we made our way to Jeremy's room. We stepped around an obnoxiously proud Klaus on the way and I had to repress my urge to shiver.

I'll never understand how Caroline had feelings for that monster, I thought as we continued on.

I knocked on Jeremy's door and heard him groan before shouting, "Go away! I don't want to talk to anyone right now."

I rolled my eyes before pushing the door open and pulling Matt in with me. Jeremy turned around to shout but when he saw it was me he relaxed. I dropped Matt's hand before running over to him and pulling him into my arms.

I felt Jeremy sigh against my shoulder before holding onto me tightly. I sat on his bed with him still clutched tightly to me. I didn't know what to do to comfort him so I just ran my fingers through his hair as he breathed raggedly against my neck.

"Jer, it's going to be okay," Matt said, sitting down on his other side and squeezing his shoulder. "We're both here for you."

…

Once Jeremy calmed down, we made our way downstairs together. Matt and I stood back as he approached Klaus. I couldn't hear what they were saying but Klaus seemed happy so I assumed Jeremy said he'd kill more vampires.

I sighed before leaning against Matt, making him wrap his arm around me. Maybe we didn't always see eye to eye on things, but we always knew what was right for each other. We were the only humans in basically all of Mystic Falls so we had to keep everyone relatively sane.

"You're our hunter; therefore you have to hunt for us. You're the only thing that's leading us to the cure for your sister," Klaus boomed, drawing my attention back to them.

"I don't want you to turn innocent people into monsters just so I can kill them. It's not right," Jeremy shouted, throwing his hands up in the air. "I'll kill vampires, but only if they've done something wrong."

"You want vampires that have done something wrong? I can arrange that," Klaus said, a sickening smile stretching his lips.

The next thing I knew he was speeding towards me, grabbing me in his arms, and speeding out of the house. I didn't even have time to scream before I was in some weird abandoned woods but it was too dark to take in any details. Klaus put me down only to secure me to a tree where I couldn't get loose. I was gnawing on my bottom lip so hard it was bringing tears to my eyes but I wouldn't give him the satisfaction of seeing me cry.

"It's nothing personal, love, but I know that the Gilbert boy has feelings for you. I'm he's going to come looking for you and save you. Unfortunately it's going to be too late because there are new vampires in these woods and they're hungry," Klaus said. Then he smiled and added, "You're going to be their first meal, it was lovely knowing you."

He ran off and left me tied to the tree in the middle of nowhere in the middle of the night. I knew I was going to become hysterical soon so I took a few deep breaths and tried to center myself. I wasn't going to freak out, I wasn't going to panic, I wasn't going to become hysterical. I trusted Jeremy, Matt, and Elena to save me.

Matt's Point of View:

I felt my heart trying to pound its way out of my chest as I registered what just happened. Klaus had taken Lex out of my arms and ran off with her in the time it took me to blink. I saw Jeremy staring after them and Elena grasping his arm in her hands tightly.

"Let go of me, Elena! I have to go get her," he shouted, trying to pull his arm out of her grip.

Elena was a vampire now so she held him easily. "Jeremy, you need to calm down. This is exactly what he wants you to do; he wants you to run off into the woods blindly. He's not going to hurt Lexi because he knows it would destroy his chances with Caroline."

"I don't care about any of that; we just need to go find her. She's alone with Klaus and that's not going to fly," I said, stepping towards them. I was trying to look tough but I couldn't so I whispered, "I can't lose her too."

Their eyes flashed to me and I saw the pity cross their faces. Elena stepped forward and placed a hand on my shoulder, "We're going to find her, Matt. I swear we won't stop until she's back with us and safe."

I nodded and stood up tall. Jeremy walked over to us and locked eyes with me, "I swear we're going to get her back. I won't stop until she's back here with a heartbeat."

I trusted them both with my life and I knew they loved Lex as much as I did. They wouldn't stop until they had her back, no matter what. I still couldn't stop my eyes from stinging as I thought about how awful it would be if I lost her too.

I felt someone grip my shoulder tightly. I looked up and saw that it was Jeremy, "I swear to you that I won't let anything happen to her. She's important to me too, Matt."

I sighed before nodding and following him and Elena out to our cars. I didn't know where I was going so I just followed them, hoping they knew what they were doing.

You guys are great with reviews and I sort of suck at updating. I hope you don't hate me too badly...
