Chapter 3: Klaus's story

Klaus's POV

"Caroline we are stuck here, so stop complaining". The only way I could think of escaping the werewolves so to go down into the fallout shelter below the mansion, but I knew we couldn't stay here forever, there was no blood for a start, I have to think of a plan. "Im scared" don't know why Tyler is behaving like this, he ended it, he cheated on me and I come to you and he gets his army of werewolves out on the prowl ready to pull me apart". "Love we will get through this, don't worry". My mind wandered onto the other situation, I wondered if I could get a signal through these thick walls… I picked up my smashed phone and saw a bar of signal left, please hold out. I dialled Stefan's number…

Damon's POV

"Stefan, Stefan where are you?" The darkness was dizzying and I didn't know if I was running into a trap but I was desperate to find my brother. Then suddenly I saw a bright light down the tunnel and followed it, I went to a room full of torches and gravestones and saw my brother bent down reading the large gold gravestone in the centre of the room.

"Stefan, thank god, are you ok?", "I'm fine, but you have a problem…", "What's that?". "Why do it Damon, why act like you care about me when you have taken away the only girl I loved and I can't get her back!". "Im lost brother, what have you found out?". Stefan's face creased up and he collapsed into a ball at my feet, I felt two emotions at once helpless and anger, I wanted to help him up and break his neck, I love her too in fact I met her before him, why is he always the special one?

I could hear vibrations and it seemed to be coming from Stefan, he picked himself up from the floor and took out the mobile in his pocket. "What Klaus!". I didn't need vampire hearing to hear the original's reply, "don't fucking what me Stefan, what the hell is going on there, have you got the cure?". "Nope and it won't work anyway". I start to pay attention more, what does he mean it won't work? "She's a doppleganger and sired and according to the writing im reading on the gravestone next to the cure she will not be cured, but unsired when the sire brings new life into this world". "Fucking hell" Klaus shouted "I knew, I knew, but didn't want to believe it!". "You knew what Klaus?" "is Damon there?", "yes", "put me on speaker phone". Stefan pressed a button on his phone and balanced it on top of the tombstone.

"Right, where do I start, well I haven't got much time as Tyler's army will soon be coming for us". Then I heard Caroline's voice in the background "Klaus we have all the time in the world that's the problem we can't escape and they won't be able to get through the steel door". "Caroline are you ok?" Stefan asks concerned "im ok Klaus is looking after me". Stefan shook his head as if he couldn't believe that Caroline was saying that!

"Ok, I will start from the beginning then, have you both heard of Tatia?" , "yes" I say "she was the first doppleganger, the one that was used to make you all into vampires by your mum". "You know you're history Damon, and dopplegangers, especially ones as beautiful as this species seem to have a reputation for getting caught between two lovers, both willing to sacrifice everything for them. I looked at Stefan, we knew that tale all too well! "In the case of Tatia, this was Elijah and myself. Also what if I told you that Tatia never had a child when she was alive, but now you say how can Katherina and Elena exist?... Because she had the child when she was a vampire.."

I felt like I had been hit by a ton of bricks, it was possible for vampires to conceive, surely not, but that had always been Elena's wish, he remembered what Stefan told him when he was trying to make him feel even more guilty for feeding her his blood before the Klaus sacrifice…"she wants a family Damon and you have taken that away from her, you deserve to rot in hell"… then I came back to reality when Stefan looked at me and I swear maybe because of the brotherly bond but I could tell he was thinking exactly the same thing. Could I give Elena the one thing in the world she most longed for… a baby?

"How did she conceive Klaus?" I practically shouted into the phone. "Damon calm the fuck down and let me carry on, it was more complicated than wham bam thank you mam, it was dark magic and also needed 5 sacrifices of noble men". He took a deep breath and continued "before we turned I was introduced to the preacher's daughter in the village we lived in, her name was Tatia and even though she kept pursuing me to court her I was not interested, my brother Elijah on the other hand very much was and asked for her hand in marriage.

Then one day I started feeling hot and then hotter and I felt like my bones were bursting out of my skin so fearing the worst I hid a nearby church and prayed at the alter for god to forgive my sins and make the pain stop. Who should appear then but Tatia…she nursed me through my first transition into a werewolf, when I woke I found her severely hurt on the floor of the church so I took her to mother as she was a well-respected witch doctor." "She stayed with us for 6 days and 6 nights as my mother fixed her, everyday I would check in on her in secret and somehow I started to fall in love with her, I kept remembering how strong she had been and not scared when I transitioned, she was more brave and independent than any of the other women I had ever met and I started to love her". That part also sounded familiar to Damon, strong and independent, it wasn't just the looks dopplegangers had in common he thought.

"After her visit my mother would stay in her room for hours at a time and we were told not to disturb her, I started to write letters in secret to Tatia and signed them with wolf". "Only she, I and my mother knew my secret, one day my father searched my room for money he thought I had stolen and found one of the letters, he called me and Elijah and told us to go outside and then in front of the whole village he announced what I had done and how disgraceful I was not only pretending to be a wolf but also that I was coveting my brother's fiancé."

The dynamic in our family changed from that moment on and little did we know the whole time mother was planning her little scheme to keep us alive for all eternity but she required a blood sacrifice. From Tatia's visit she learned there was something abnormal about her blood and by researching for hours and hours she found out about dopplegangers and found a picture of the original doppleganger Ana from 100BC she looked just like Tatia. She knew she had found her blood sacrifice and convinced Elijah to bring Tatia to her, because of his feelings on her betrayal with me he did so, that decision he has regretted ever since now he knows what mother had planned for her…"
