Chapter 7: A Whisper To A Scream

I awoke hours later in my bed in my room. Oddly enough Klaus was sitting in a chair sketching on a notepad beside me. I felt a little overwhelmed that this 1000 year old vampire was sitting amongst my most personal and prized possessions nonchalantly sketching on one of my notebooks.

It took me several minutes to process what was happening and finally to accept that I wasn't still asleep.

"What—" I began to ask confused.

My voice was scratchy and my throat was sore.

Klaus put the notebook down and looked at me his face void of emotions.

"How are you feeling, love?" he asked curiously. His face gave away to how he was feeling being in my room as I slept soundly in my bed. I glanced at the clock on my bedside table trying to gauge the time and gasped when I saw I'd been asleep most of the day and it was already 5 o'clock.

Just two hours before the sun went down.

I sighed and took several deep breaths, "Ok, I guess, I mean for what happened. How did I get home?" I asked looking around my room.

I noted that there were some panties on the floor and I hoped he hadn't seen them. I also hoped that he hadn't noticed the various romance novels dotting my bookshelves or the half empty boxes I had yet to unpack.

"I carried you here then I sent for Dr. Fell to examine you. She gave you some of my blood." He said nonchalantly.

I immediately stiffened up, but Klaus waved his hand at me.

"Don't worry you won't become a hybrid. But night will be falling in a few hours. How is your basement by the way? Would it be sturdy enough to house you?" Klaus said staring at me intently.

"Uh…" I said not my most intellectual response so I looked away.

"I take that as a no. Well then I suppose we must move you to my house then."

I was about to protest but he waved his hand again to silence me.

"I insist Caroline as does your mother. She was here earlier. I sent for her as well after what happened in the woods. She wanted to stay with you, but…sometimes other obligations come first." Klaus said getting out of the chair.

"Oh, is she working now?" I asked a slight bitter tone I was sure could be heard in my voice.

"She is. We are looking into those men. We think they may have been werewolf hunters." Klaus said quietly.

"Oh." I said lamely.

"Do you remember anything?" Klaus asked as he began to pace the length of my room.

I sighed and tried to think.

"Not really. I don't generally remember anything when I shift. I guess I broke out of the chains I was in and the next thing I know I was chained to a tree naked and those men came out of the woods. They…they were going to hurt me…and…I couldn't do anything…then you came along." I stuttered feeling sick with the knowledge that they were going to kill me, but not before raping me of course.

"Do you know if there were more?" Klaus asked quietly still pacing.

"No, I don't." I said shifting the blankets off of me and standing up to stretch.

"Well I want you to stay here for a little while and then we can figure it out." Klaus said glancing at me.

I sighed feeling annoyed at being held captive, but I was also a little thrilled that I would be getting to spend more time with Klaus.

"Fine." I snapped and then went to the bathroom.

I could hear Klaus continue to pace outside my room and I felt the need to get away for a bit. I knew it would be unwise to leave, but if I only left for an hour then maybe I clear my head. But then I remembered what happened the last time I had went on a walk and remembered not too fondly Tyler capturing me. I figured the best thing I could do was take a shower and then change my clothes and go to Klaus's for my transformation.

I took a quick show and examined the scratched on me, I noticed most of them were gone wither it was from the vampire blood or my healing abilities I wasn't sure. When I exited the bathroom I saw a hastily written note from Klaus explaining he had gone to his home to ready the basement for my arrival and he would be back in a couple minutes. I didn't think much of it as I packed an overnight back and got ready to go to Klaus's to be locked in the basement so I wouldn't hurt anyone.

I wondered vaguely why he was doing all this and if he had an ulterior motive, when I heard movement coming from inside the house. I prayed that it was Klaus since I had already been kidnapped so often this week I wasn't sure if I could handle another attack. I grabbed some hair spray and crept downstairs to investigate the sounds.

I gasped when I saw the same men from before, the ones who had attacked me alive and in my kitchen. I was so shocked to see them alive that I was too slow at spraying the first one to attack me.

I started to scream wither it was in confusion or fear I was unsure. I had watched Klaus kill them how were the three men still in my house? How were these men alive?

The leader grabbed me and I sprayed the hair spray in his face and he yelled in anger and pain letting me go and try to get away. But his lackies were quick and I only got a chance to spray one of them in the face before the last one grabbed my arm and yanked it out of it's socket.

"Stop!" I cried trying to kick him off me.

But the man was moving and he punched me in the face I saw stars swirl in front of my eyes and I fought to stay awake.

The leader came towards me and kicked me in the stomach.

"You stupid wolf! That's for thinking you can kill us! You can't kill us! We are hunters. And this is for what your little boyfriend did to us." The leader said kicking me again and again in the stomach.

I knew by this time one of my ribs had to be broken and I was coughing up blood. One of the men grabbed my hair yanking my head back and the lead man approached me a knife in hand.

"You will be dead in mere minutes, we don't have to wait until tonight." He said then stabbed me viciously in the gut.

I felt the blood on my hands and I cried out in pain as the men continued to stab me with their knives. I vaguely heard my name and then the world went black yet again.


I awoke this time in a different bed, a bigger more comfortable bed. Once again Klaus was sitting beside me, but he wasn't drawing this time, he had his head in his hands and he was whispering.

"What's wrong?" I slurred anxiously.

I wanted to make him feel better.

He seemed to be upset.

"Caroline?" he asked his head shooting up.

"Klaus." I said softly our eyes meeting.

"What happened?" I asked after a long moment.

Klaus sighed and shifted beside me.

"I'm sorry I left you, love, I was only gone for a half hour…I…I'm so sorry." He said.

His eyes were wide with worry and I knew something was the matter. He had so many conflicting emotions on his face I was growing concerned.

I wanted to make him feel better.

"What happened?" I asked again.

"Caroline, please, don't be upset…those men killed you…and my blood was in your system…You are a hybrid now." Klaus whispered.

I felt my entire body freeze as I tried to understand what he was saying.

I was a hybrid?

How did I become a hybrid?

"But…But don't I need to drink blood to complete the transformation? Don't I have to drink Elena's blood?" I stuttered feeling so numb.

"You did." Klaus said in that same quiet voice.

"But…but I can't be a hybrid! I just can't I'll be sired to you, just like Tyler, I never wanted this! Please! Make it go away! I don't want this!" I cried.

I could feel the tears streaming down my face and Klaus moved towards me cupping my face with his hands.

"Please!" I begged. "Take it back." I cried sobbing as more tears ran down my face.

"I'm sorry Caroline, I did what I thought was best." Klaus said.

"And how do you know what's best? Who died and made you king? This isn't best! This isn't what I need! I wanted to be normal. I wanted to be…to be human." I said desperately removing my face from his hands.

"And those men! I watched you kill those men! Why were they in my house! What are those men!?" I screamed getting more worked up.

I kicked the blankets away and curled into a fetal position.

Klaus tried to approach me but I scooted away from him not wanting to be near him, but at the same time only wanting to be with him.

Was this what it was like to be sired to someone?

Would he control me forever?

"Caroline, please, I did this for you. If you hadn't drank Elena's blood than you'd have died. I didn't want you to die." Klaus said gently.

"That isn't a decision you get to make. It's my life and my decision; besides why would you care if I died. I mean nothing to you." I spat my arms wrapped around my legs.

Klaus recoiled when he heard that and he ran a hand through his hair making a frustrated sound.

"I care, I do and I made the proper decision for you." he said frustrated.

"But that isn't a decision you get to make. It's not up to you. It's my life if I want to die then I'll die." I said bitterly.

"But I don't want you to die! Don't you see that! You have so much potential Caroline! So much light!" Klaus snapped.

He stood up and began to pass the room in anger and I watched him tears still streaming down my face.

"Why don't you see I'm trying to help you! You don't have to go through the transformation anymore! You're stronger! Faster! Everything is better for you! And yes you have to drink blood and you're sired to me, but it's worth it! For a life of eternity and power! It's all worth it! Why don't you see?" Klaus ranted.

"But I don't want this. I told you I want to be normal." I said desperately.

"You'll never be normal, Caroline you are a werewolf! You're special! None of this small town life is good enough for you! You deserve so much more! And yes, it wasn't right of me to force-feed you Elena's blood, but the transition is done and now you are a hybrid so deal with it." Klaus snarled turning towards the door and slamming it shut behind him.

I jumped as the door closed and I sighed taking in all of the changes that two days had brought me.

Klaus had saved me, yes, but now I was indebted to him forever.

I was just as bad off as Tyler.

I would have to do his bidding and I would be considered the bad guy. The tears sprang to my eyes again and I cried silently all the while wishing that I was just normal human Caroline Forbes who didn't have to deal with Hybrids or vampires or werewolves.
