So developing this story takes a lot of work, but is worth it. I think it might turn out to be my best one's yet. I wanted to make Klaus into more of a bad guy this time around because I feel like in the show he isn't as evil and scary as he should be. He's suppose to be a narcissistic, sociopathetic vampire hybrid! Bare with me guys. You'll enjoy it. Thanks for all the earlier reviews! Now that I've decided what direction I'm going with this story I'm changing the description.
Chapter 4: Royal Blood
Egypt 1356 B.C
She awoke with a gasp struggling to gain air into her lungs. It was a dream that she has never had before. She was dripping in cool sweat as she slowly recounted in her head the events of her dream. She lifted her hands to her face in disbelief.
"Demons?"She said aloud as she lifted her body up with her elbows. She looked around her chambers trying to adjust her eyes to the darkness which engulfed the entire room. Luckily the moonlight helped her to make out every shadow which lurked in each corner; Just the shadows of the furniture, he thought to herself. In relief she allowed herself to breathe in the smell of lavender and take joy in the fact that she was still alive and still in her home. "Egypt… how our God Ra cherishes you so."
"Queen Nefertiti…May I come in?" Nefertiti's eyes shot up toward the direction from which the familiar voice was heard. From the distance she could see a talk slender woman standing in the doorway that led into her room. "Yes Amunet, you may enter."
Amunet entered the room with a look of concern on her face. "Are you feeling alright my Queen?"
Nefertiti shook her head. "I just had a bad dream…nothing to concern yourself about."
"A curse?" Amunet said with a tinge of fear in her voice.
"Like I said…nothing to concern yourself about." Nefertiti placed both her feet on the cold marble floor. A shiver ran down her body at the contact.
"What business do you have with me?" Nefertiti replied.
"Forgive me." Amunet said as she bowed her head. "We have word from the oracle concerning your fertility-"
"And?" Nefertiti said growing impatient. "Well my Queen….forgive me for saying this…if you wish to punish me I will accept."
"Say it." Nefertiti barked in frustration.
"She said that the Gods have decided that you are unworthy of baring their children. She called you tainted. You've been trying to conceive with the King for the past two years maybe there is no hope left." Amuet said in a soft trembling voice.
"Unworthy?" Nefertiti whispered. Her hands began to shake as she balled them into fists. Suddenly the room became darker and foreboding. Amuet let out a gasp.
Nefertiti stood up from her bed. Her chocolate colored eyes started to glow a bright green. At the same moment a huge gust of wind blew through the room causing Amunet fall to her knees in fright. "Y-you're a…"
"….A witch" Nefertiti said with a straining look on her face. "Call it what you will Amunet, I see it as nothing more than a curse."
Amunet clinched her teeth trying her best to gather her thoughts. Then she spoke. "This is a gift from the Gods…only the priests are supposed to be able to use magic."
"It's a curse!" Nefertiti yelled in anger.
"No my Queen, you have been choosen. If we just tell the council-"Nefertiti cut her off.
"You will tell them nothing!" Nefertiti yelled.
At that exact moment a loud boom of thunder sounded from the heaven causing Amunet to jump to her feet. Amunet then ran as quickly as she could out of Nefertiti's chambers, afraid for her life. Nefertiti watched as Amunet ran down the long gold painted corridor.
With a bit of reluctance Nefertiti raised her hand toward Amunet's direction.
In a matter of seconds Amunet burst into flames. Her agonizing screams filled the palace immediately, causing the palace guards to come running to her aid. Her screams were piercing… just like a dagger to the heart. Nefertiti watched from afar as Amunet burned with a magnificent blue flame that could only be compared to the beauty of her Nile.
With a slight smirk Nefertiti turned around to walk away. "Nothing will stop me from bearing children. This Kingdom will forever belong to the Queen of the Nile…even if I must bed the devil." Nefertiti laid back on her bed and covered her eyes, listening ever so closely to the fading wails of Amunet. Her thoughts began to wander back to the dream. Wait… maybe it wasn't a dream at all. She was accustomed to having visions ever since she was a child. Things see could see that others couldn't. She thought about it for awhile longer before drifting back to sleep she remembered one important detail from her 'vision'. Before falling asleep she was able to whisper one name."Bon-nie?"

Bonnie awoke in a panic. Sweat dripped slowly from her forehead like sap from a tree. Her heart was beating faster than she would have liked. She wouldn't be surprised if any moment now she would have a full blown heart attack.
"Bad dream?" She heard someone say. It was in that moment that Bonnie looked up and noticed Klaus looking down at her with his sharp blue eyes and an amused look on his face.
Bonnie screamed in surprise, and as a result punched Klaus square in the face. Klaus took on the full force of Bonnie's blow sending his face looking in the opposite direction. As for Bonnie, she couldn't help but notice the sound of the loud crack that echoed throughout the room at the same moment her hand made contact with Klaus' face.
"Argggggggggh!" Bonnie yelled out in pain. As she held her right hand which was throbbing uncontrollably. "Shit!"
Klaus took in a long sigh and looked back towards his beaten and battered witch holding her right hand gently with her left hand as she tried to soothe the pain.
Bonnie quickly began to recall why Klaus was here in front of her, which only proved to helped to make the unbearable pain from her hand even more painful. Trying her best not to start crying like a newborn baby in front of him she closed her eyes tightly. She broke her arm before during cheerleading practice, but this was nothing like that. Her hand was torn to shreds.
"You're in a lot of pain. Let me give you some of my blood." Klaus said in a stern voice.
At the exact same time Klaus uttered those words Bonnie's greenish brown eyes shot up to his own. "Hell no get away from me!"
Bonnie stood up in one motion. She looked around the room and noticed that she wasn't in any place familiar. White walls, refrigerator, bathroom, balcony. She was in a hotel room.
She began to panic. If she didn't do something about her hand soon she was afraid she was going to pass out. Passed out alone with Klaus near her? No, she couldn't allow that.
Klaus rose to his feet and walked away from the bed from which Bonnie just awoke from.
"I can't have you awakening our neighbors this early into the morning my dear." Klaus said as he picked up a cup from a nearby nightstand.
Bonnie watched Klaus closely, her breath heightening and her heartbeat becoming slower and slower. She was going to faint.
Klaus looked from Bonnie and then to his wrist. His fangs descended, and his eyes began to glow the yellow hue that haunted Bonnie in her dreams every night since Klaus became a hybrid.
Klaus lifted his wrist to his mouth and bit and as deeply as he could to draw the most blood.
He then readied the coffee mug to catch every drop of his ruby colored essence.
Bonnie fell to her knees. Her vision began to blur and her head became light.
"You have been through a lot in the past forty hours." Klaus said as he made his way over to Bonnie who was slumped on the carpet looking so helpless and afraid.
Forty hours? Bonnie thought to herself as she struggled to look up at Klaus. She could feel what little heat he was giving off. It comfort her in a way, which only managed to make her even more sick to her stomach.
"Drink." Klaus muttered raising the glass to Bonnie lips. Bonnie's dark brown hair fell lifelessly onto her face. Bonnie turned her face away and ignored Klaus advances.
Again she groaned in pain.
"Very well my dear, but remember you brought this upon yourself. Suffer if you must, but try and keep the noise level down to a minimal if you please I've already paid for another night in this grotesquely decorated hotel room and I plan to get my money worth without us getting kicked out prematurely." Klaus took a sip of his blood that was still inside the coffee mug and smiled with satisfaction.
"Screw your hotel room, screw the neighbors and screw you, you thirty year old Justin Beiber looking-"
Bonnie was immediately interrupted when Klaus slammed his rose colored lips unto hers roughly. Bonnie's eyes grew the size of saucers as she struggled to get free. But Klaus wouldn't let her. He held onto her tight with his hand holding the back of her head, bringing her deeper into the kiss.
Bonnie felt a sting of disgust overcome her when she noticed the taste of iron on her tongue. Fuck! She screamed in her head.
Blood began to trickle from their lips onto the floor.
Klaus moaned in satisfaction at the taste of his blood, her lips and the intimacy of it all. God he was sick. And he knew it. However, he enjoyed that part of him.
Bonnie gathered all the strength she had left in her body together and directed it towards Klaus.
In a flash Klaus found himself crashing into the ceiling above, with Bonnie choking wildly below him.
The son of a bitch! Bonnie cursed to herself. He forced her to drink his blood; caught her off guard! And not to mention he kissed her! Damn him.
Bonnie tried her best to spit up the blood, but it was no use it was already in her system. She could feel the pain in her hand quickly reside. The painful throbbing came to a halt, and her heartbeat began to stabilize.
"Try not to get any blood on the carpet love. I just had housekeeping steam clean it. Now if you don't mind can you ever so kindly let me down?" Klaus said in a sarcastic plea.
"I'll think about it." Bonnie replied as she stood to her feet. She looked up at Klaus with a fire burning in her eyes.
Oh yes, she was pissed. Klaus thought to himself. Out of nowhere a melody rang through the room disrupting Bonnie's thoughts. She recognized the tone as the ringtone to her cell phone. She looked around the room and noticed her phone laying on the nightstand on the other side of the room next to the flat screen television.
Bonnie jolted over to the phone which was lighting up and vibrating uncontrollably. Klaus fell to the floor with a loud thud. And before Bonnie had a chance to even touch the phone Klaus was already by her side with it in his hand.
"Give it back to me!" Bonnie yelled as she reached for the phone. Klaus frowned and began to tighten his hold on the phone. With little effort the phone shattered to small pieces and fell to the floor. Bonnie's mouth dropped at his actions. Her eyes met his with a scowl. He was pushing her buttons big time. Bad idea.
"Don't even think about it." Klaus said as he grabbed her by both her hands. "Try anything, and this time I'll break both your hands."
Bonnie could tell he was dead serious. No pun intended. The look on his face told it all.
She looked away from him in her own attempt to try and not burn him alive where he stood.
"Where am I?" Bonnie replied, trying her best to focus his attention on something else.
"You'll find out soon enough." Klaus said as he let Bonnie's hands drop from his. "In the meantime you should get cleaned up, and put on something flattering. We have a long night ahead of us."
Elena slammed the phone down in frustration. She has been trying to get a hold of Bonnie by calling her cell phone, but so far she hasn't been able to reach her.
Damon, Caroline and Matt all watched Elena with a disappointing look on their faces.
They were all currently at Elena's house. They've been there ever since Bonnie disappeared with Klaus almost two days ago.
"D-do you think he killed her?" Caroline said in a voice almost too soft to hear.
"No." Damon interrupted. "If he wanted Bonnie dead she would be dead. He wouldn't kidnap her then kill her, it makes no sense."
"You can save it Damon!" Caroline yelled in anger. "It's your brothers fault Bonnie was taken in the first place he's…he's-"Caroline struggled to find her words, but was cut of by another voice.
"A traitor? Is that what you were going to say Caroline?" Everyone's head turned to the entrance to the kitchen were Stefan was standing in all his brooding glory. "Call me what you want…but you are still alive thanks to me…remember that."
Caroline fangs began to descend and she was on the verge of launching an attack on Stefan when Damon stepped in the way. "Wait Caroline, don't kick his ass just yet I want to hear what Superman has to say for himself."
Elena walked away from the island in the middle of the kitchen and toward Stefan.
"Stefan?" Elena said in a questioning voice before coming to a halt in front of him.
Stefan saw the pain in Elena's eyes and felt a bit guilty of that. However, he knew that what he does was the right thing. "Klaus won't harm her. He needs her for something. If she refused to go with him all of you would be dead and buried in Mystic Falls cemetery right now. I bought us time."
Matt lowered his head. "I understand."
"Matt! Don't praise him! He bargained our best friend off to the most masochistic bi-polar hybrid that we know! If anything we should be forcing him to drink cockroach blood until he passes out!"
"Caroline…" Elena said as she walked toward her blond haired friend.
Damon stared at Stefan with his electric blue piercing eyes. "Oh don't give me that look Damon. Now is not the time to act like you cared about Bonnie. After all you two were enemies."
"Doesn't mean that what you did was right." Damon replied as he crossed his arms over his chest. "Funny...because when I did do what I did, I thought to myself what would Damon do."
Damon was about to storm toward his brother when he was stopped by a ring of the doorbell.
"Who's that?" Matt said looking toward Elena.
"I don't know, I didn't tell anyone else about us being here…maybe its Jeremy, I'll go answer it." With that Elena made her way out of the kitchen and towards the door.
Leaving Stefan and Damon to have the stare down of the century with Caroline and Matt as the audience.
"No time to feel guilty about all you've done now Damon. What ever Klaus has planned for Bonnie might be similar to what he had planned for me, and trust me if it was anything like I experienced with him…Bonnie won't want to come back anytime soon."
As Elena finally made it to the front door the door bell suddenly stopped ringing. "Who is it?" Elena called from the opposite side of the door. No answer. With a loud sigh Elena opened the door only to find two deep brown eyes staring down at her. Her eyes widened in shock.
"Hello Elena." Elijah said with a smirk.
Boring Sunday decided to write a quick chapter to kill some time. The Egyptian Queen Nefertiti has a connection to Bonnie but you'll have to wait to find out how. I know it's not much but I'll put up the next one soon so you guys can try and put together what is going on and what Klaus wants with Bonnie. Trust me you'll probably never guess it :-D
REVIEW.
