Here We Go:
Chapter7_B In Action
She turned to them and said clearly: "I'm Anna Mikaelson as in Klaus's wife…"
The silence made Klaus smirk devilishly. For the first time Stefan and Damon didn't have something to say. They were teaching him the meaning of the word 'speechless'. When he opened his mouth to say something Damon rose one of his hands and closed his eyes. Klaus's face was priceless; somewhere between angry and amused.
Damon finally opened his eyes and asked suddenly: "Wife? Your wife? What about Caroline?" Klaus felt a pang in his heart. Damn Damon Salvatore! Anna asked curiously while looking at Klaus: "Who's Caroline?" Before Klaus could answer Stefan asked: "Klaus's wife? It's impossible. He's not married. I would remember something at least…"
He started frowning and that meant he was remembering something from his returned memory. He did remember asking Klaus about a woman and his answer. "You told me she was dead…" Anna smiled weakly and took his hand; surprising the brothers. "I was dead; almost…"
Klaus smirked but he knew he had enough for the night. He had some explaining to do about Caroline but he wanted to delay it as long as possible. He added to the conversation: "If you'll excuse us…"
He practically dragged her along with him and didn't catch a glimpse of her flirtatious smirk shot right at Damon Salvatore. Klaus ordered some drinks for them and noticed two idiots leaving the Grill; probably running to inform the whole gang bang of themselves.
Anna took her shot and drowned it which surprised Klaus. She saw his expression and shrugged. Klaus's fear came to life when she started: "So who's this Caroline?" Klaus tried to look calm but on the inside his mind was blowing up. He didn't know how to handle those kinds of situations.
It was always her; never someone else not even to make her jealous. It was hard to confess he grew some feelings for a blond baby vampire but he was sure if he wouldn't inform her the Salvatore brothers most definitely do.
"She's one of them. She was… I flirted with her a couple of times and you know…" Anna knew what to do; she was prepared. She started looking down; holding the counter tightly. She took a deep breath and then looked straight at Klaus's eyes. She saw a regret she never saw in anyone's eyes and it shocked her but she got over it soon.
"It's alright Nik… I didn't expect you to be alone for the rest of your life when you assumed I cheated on you and… when you told Stefan I was dead…" Klaus interrupted her: "I just said it cause I didn't wanna explain my situation for him Anna…" Her smile caught him off guard; Klaus stopped talking.
She took his neck and brought his lips closer to hers. She kissed him hard and passionately; enough to make a couple of people stare. Klaus eagerly took a hold of her waist; pushing her closer and closer to his body. He suddenly remembered he texted Rebekah earlier; letting her know he was coming over. He pulled away smirking; thinking about a way to surprise his little sister…
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The plan was set; they both knew what to do so Klaus opened the door of their mansion and got in. Anna took off her heels and followed him inside. She hid in the shadows when Klaus went further to find his sister. Anna closed her eyes and listened to them.
Klaus walked in the dining room and saw Rebekah drinking a bottle of fine red wine; as usual. He knew she had something to celebrate but it wasn't time for her conquers but of course she didn't let him start: "Oh Nik, great timing brother! We have to celebrate… I just burnt down the white oak tree; problem solved!"
Klaus didn't know what to say; he was experiencing the word 'speechless' for himself. Poor Damon! "You did what?" Rebekah stood up coming closer to her brother while saying: "I burnt down the only thing that could bring us down brother. Now what's my reward?!"
A smirk finally appeared on Klaus's face. She was ready for her surprise and she so deserved it. He kissed her cheek; noticing he hadn't done that for a while by Rebekah's risen eyebrows. He whispered: "My sweet Bekah, I have just what you desire…"
Anna knew it was the time for her to show herself. Any fear on her mind disappeared the moment she heard the gang was weaponless. It was a relief that they wouldn't do anything stupid like going after originals before she talked to them. She took a deep breath and started walking to the door with her heels in her hands.
Rebekah patiently waited for Klaus's gift but it was taking longer than she expected. She took a sip of her wine and when she looked at the door she saw an image she always thought she'd never see again. Anna was standing right in front of her in tight skinny jeans and top tank with a leather jacket on and heels in her hands.
Klaus saw the expression on her sister's face and it could be translated as pure shock. She let go of the glass of wine and it shattered all around the room. The sound of the break brought the two of them to real life. Rebekah opened her mouth but it hurt even to say a word.
She blurred to her and pressed her against the wall. Anna let go of her heels and they hit the ground as well. Rebekah's fangs came out and the veins underneath her eyes appeared. Anna didn't do a thing; she just waited for her to finish her crazy reactions. Klaus wanted to interfere but he wasn't too sure it was a good idea.
After a minute she let go of Anna and her face returned to normal. She took a step back; letting her stay away from the wall. Rebekah turned her head around to see Klaus's reaction and she saw something in her brother's eyes that made her heart skip a beat. She turned her attention to Anna and this time she hugged her tightly; barely letting her breathe.
Klaus heard her sniff and was sure Rebekah was crying. It was a long time; she had the right to have any kinds of reactions she wanted. Anna shed a tear too but she wasn't crying as hard as Rebekah. Klaus stood next to a wall watching them.
Rebekah pulled away; looking at her face probably making sure she was who she was. Klaus knew he had to say something. "Bekah, was your reward satisfying or not?!" She sniffed while saying: "You're kidding, right? But how…" Anna whispered for the first time: "It's a long story Bekah…"
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"That fucking bastard! I knew it!" Rebekah shouted at the end of the story. She was miraculously silent the whole time when Anna was talking and she couldn't help to shout when she was finished. Anna smiled shyly and asked: "So Bekah… You think we can be like… old times?"
Rebekah stared at her like she was staring at an idiot person while she said: "Please tell me you're joking!" Anna moved closer to her and asked: "Can we?" Rebekah threw her hands in the air and said: "Of course you brat!"
Klaus interfered: "As long as I remember you were the brat and she was the beauty!" Rebekah threw one of the vases at him but Klaus caught it in the air growling: "Expensive Rebekah! Does it ring any bell?" Rebekah said mischievously: "That was Esther's favorite…" Klaus threw the vase calmly at the wall and it shattered on the floor next to million pieces of Rebekah's glass.
Anna laughed but she couldn't hold it in: "Still mad at Esther? You're already a hybrid so…" Rebekah interrupted her and asked Klaus: "She doesn't know? You haven't told her?" "Told me what?" Klaus hurried in: "We were kind of busy sis; I thought you'd understand! Anna, it's a long story…"
Anna didn't continue it; Klaus obviously didn't wanna talk about it but she could later ask Rebekah. She would tell her everything she needed. Klaus stepped closer and took Anna's hand and she stood up. "What are you doing brother?" Klaus frowned: "I'm taking her to my… our room Bekah. Do you have a problem with that?"
"Oh, I do!" She stood up and took Anna's free hand; pulling her to herself while she said: "You had her for two days and now I want her! It's a girl's night; you're welcome to … leave." Klaus growled while pulling Anna closer: "Not a chance in hell sister! She's mine…"
Anna started laughing and it made the two of them stop arguing with each other. Anna said: "Nik, please understand. I miss her so much and… Oh! I'll be at your door with chocolate, cream and strawberries 8 o'clock sharp! Do we have a deal?!"
Klaus didn't pay attention to Rebekah's 'Eww! Too much information!' and started thinking. She had the right to be with Rebekah after all these years and secretly he knew she'd do it whether he agreed or not so he nodded and it earned him a hot kiss on the lips. Girls started walking to the stairs giggling and it made him smile…
Their quiet giggles filled the silent forest and it made Klaus sigh mentally. Rebekah and Anna were moving faster than them and it annoyed him. He just got back after two months and he couldn't spend a little time with her. Well he wasn't someone special anyway, just her so called friend…
Elijah tapped him on the shoulder and brought him out of his thoughts. Klaus gave him a 'what?' look but Elijah didn't say a word. Klaus stopped walking and asked him: "Why did you do that?" Elijah smiled and whispered: "It's fine brother to feel that way. I bet she has the same thoughts…"
"What?" Klaus asked angrily but Elijah simply walked away. He blurred in front of the girls and they screamed. "Elijah scaring two girls? Talk about nobility!" Klaus thought; pissed off at his brother. Elijah always could read him like an open book and it wasn't good.
Klaus just thanked god that Kol wasn't around to hear anything and mock him. He was too busy with their neighbor's girl to come to the lake in the woods; their favorite spot. The first night they moved in Anna thanked him for saving her when Klaus decided to be alone near the lake and after that it became their spot. After they found this village full of witches they decided to stay for a while.
A year passed them by but nothing happened between Klaus and Anna. She said a thing or two that made Klaus believe she had some sorts of feelings for him but he couldn't let them get to him. He made up his mind but he still wanted her…
You are my fire
The one desire
Believe when I say
I want it that way
They finally reached the lake and Klaus caught the view of Anna staring at him. He returned the gaze but she blushed and looked the other way. She whispered into Rebekah's ear: "You said he would be here by now so where is he?"
He? There was a He? Who was He?
Klaus was so tempted to say something but he stopped himself. He took a small rock and threw it in the lake. The water splashed so hard it even scared him. Anna looked at him with her big curious eyes but Rebekah's eyes were looking at him emotionlessly. Elijah understood Klaus and asked: "So Anna, who's that He you told Bekah about?"
Anna frowned and then pouted: "It's not fair, you hear everything!" Klaus mocked: "Oh! Did I leave out the hearing abilities when I was explaining our special gifts to you or you were just so busy thinking about that guy instead of listening to me carefully?"
Anna didn't expect that answer but the words had already left his mouth. He could tell they were all surprised. Anna just shook her head and started glancing at the lake. Klaus turned around and started walking to get out of there that he bumped into a man.
The man adjusted his clothes and said politely: "I'm so sorry sir." Klaus just passed him by but he didn't go too far when he heard him say: "Anna! You look lovely today…" Jealousy took over him like a crazy rash and he stopped dead in his tracks.
"So he was He! Bastard…" Klaus thought angrily. He heard Anna reply: "Why, thank you Peter! Do you wanna take a walk around the lake?" Apparently he nodded or something cause Klaus heard two footsteps going further and further. After they were gone he heard Rebekah say: "Klaus acted so inappropriate. I thought he…" Elijah interrupted her: "Me too but he's a difficult person to figure out. You never know with him…"
Klaus had to do something before she was gone forever with that Pip or Patrick or whatever the hell his name was. He blurred to his left and then took a secret way to a place he knew Anna loved to take people there. It had great view and she always loved to show people how beautiful nature was.
He heard her talking and he hid behind a tree. "So Peter, Bekah said you wanted to talk about something important. What is it?" Something important? He wasn't gonna propose, was he? "Lord, don't let that happen…" Klaus prayed but it hit him suddenly why ask God when he could stop it himself?
Klaus started walking to them but they both couldn't see him. He took a deep breath and before Peter could open his mouth he said: "Anna? Can I talk to you for a moment?" They both turned around shocked. Anna frowned seeing him but asked anyway: "What are you doing here Nik?"
He shrugged and repeated her words: "I want to talk to you about something important..." Peter raised his eyebrows but didn't comment. Anna smiled politely at him when she excused herself. Klaus deliberately took her hand and walked her to somewhere a little far from Peter.
The moment they were out of Peter's sight Anna pulled away her hand and the movement itself; made him regret doing what he was doing. She asked rather harshly: "Are you here to give me another complaint of how I didn't listen to you carefully before?" Klaus shook his head as a 'no' and it made Anna hiss: "So what?"
"What does he want with you?" Klaus asked abruptly. Anna was surprised but got over it soon. "It's not your business Niklaus." "Don't call me that Anna…" Klaus growled but it didn't stop Anna from answering: "Or what Niklaus? Are you going to kill me? Drain me? Pull my heart out? What would you do, huh?" Klaus muttered: "Don't do this now…" Anna smirked while answering: "Doing what? Stand up to you or make love to Peter right here in the woods?"
His blood started boiling and his mind stopped working when she spat those words out. He did something Anna didn't see coming; not in a million years. He took her head and brought it closer and his lips caught hers in a fierce kiss. She was too shocked to move an inch but he kissed her on his own. He kissed her so hard; sure to leave a bruise.
Am I your fire?
Your one desire
Yes I know it's too late
But I want it that way
The moment of passion ended with peter calling Anna's name. He let her go and stared at the look on her face. Her face was blank; hardly showing any emotions except pure shock. He whispered: "I have to go…" He blurred out of the woods and after he made sure he was far from the village he stopped. He knew he had to leave home for at least a year. He didn't know how to face her anymore. He didn't know how to control himself anymore. He had to go…
The memory made him smirk. Anna's lips on his for the first time; hard to forget… He started walking upstairs; taking his time. He heard two important women in his life laughing and he smiled genuinely. He wanted to join them but it'd ruin their fun so he reminded himself of what Anna promised him and went to his room; anxiously waiting for tomorrow morning…
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Anna made sure Rebekah drank all of her wine. The same wine she put some pills in to make her actually fall asleep for the rest of the night. Mick tested those pills on vampires before and it worked. Tomorrow morning Rebekah would wake up with a slight headache and having no idea of what happened last night.
"Problem solved!" Anna thought as Rebekah slowly drifted to sleep. She hugged her and put her on the bed. Her heels were downstairs so she didn't make a sound when she descended the stairs. She listened for any signs of anyone in the house but there was none. Even Klaus was asleep.
She took her heels and ran out of the door. Her phone vibrated in her pocket and she checked her messages. Katherine sent the text in the right moment. She needed Salvatore's address and she got it. She replied: 'In time. Xoxo, B'
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"What do you mean he's married?! He can't possibly be… That man's hhea heartless…" Elena stuttered confused. Damon snored while answering: "Heartless? And here I thought he was gay; always pining after Stefan…"
No one laughed at his joke except Alaric but he stopped when he received a glare from Stefan himself. Elena simply rolled her eyes. Caroline finally started talking: "So he's really married?" Everyone turned their attention to her. She didn't seem sad; she just looked hurt. Elena went to her and put her hand on her friend's shoulder and smiled weakly.
Damon poured another drink for himself and then suddenly said: "I gotta say; she was hot!" Elena gave him a disgusted look but Stefan continued: "Damon, she may look attractive but you gotta stay away from her. Trust me, you don't wanna mess with Klaus over his wife…"
Caroline growled: "His wife, his wife! He probably doesn't even love her! Maybe they were in some sorts of arranged marriage or something!" Damon rolled his eyes and spat the harsh words: "Oh grow up Caroline! He obviously loves her… Stefan why don't you share your little memory trip you took when we were in the bar?"
Alaric asked curiously: "What trip?" Stefan stood up and went near to the fireplace and then he started talking: "When we were in Chicago I once asked him if he had any lady on his mind and then he answered she was dead. End of story."
Damon didn't let go and pushed him: "End of story? Tell him about what our dear Rebekah told you after that?" Stefan said quietly: "Rebekah said they were so much in love… She also said she was dead but it doesn't make sense. When I confronted them about it, she answered she was almost dead…"
Caroline rushed in hopefully: "Maybe Klaus daggered her?" Elena sat on the couch and answered back: "Why would someone dagger the woman they love Caroline?" Stefan completed: "And of course she wasn't an original so he couldn't possibly dagger her…"
Damon muttered: "She's not an original… It means she can be killed with a stake… Piece of cake!" Elena shouted: "Have you lost your mind? You wanna go after her? Kill her? Then what? You want Klaus to tear us all apart?"
Caroline and Stefan just growled. Alaric drank his Scotch and decided not to comment on the topic. Damon fought back: "Hasn't he done enough? She's his weakness Elena! We can destroy him by killing her off!" Stefan stepped in before Elena could say a word: "We're not killing anyone except the originals, got it?" Damon didn't give up: "She's one of them! She's a Mikaelson Stefan! She has to die…"
Before Stefan could open his mouth the doorbell rang and surprised all of them. It was 1 A.M and they weren't expecting anyone in that time. Since everyone was still staring at each other Damon went to take the door. He opened it and saw one person he didn't think he'd see anytime soon…
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Anna's quiet voice reached Damon's ears: "Hello Damon, can I come in please?" Damon was still silent and it made Anna more confident. She stepped inside and whispered: "Too bad I don't need any…" She passed him by and was welcomed with shocked faces of people in the house. She heard Damon finally closing the front door and stepping in.
Anna moved confidently until she reached the first person in her way. She smiled and said rather formally: "Stefan Salvatore, nice to see you again." Stefan answered without any hesitation: "What are you doing here?" She leaned in and whispered: "Wrong answer Stefan. Let's not do that again…"
Before he could manage to say something she moved on to the next person. Alaric put his drink down and gulped when he saw her so close to him. "She is hot!" He thought uncontrollably. Anna patted his cheek and said: "You must be the ex-hunter, Alaric. Is that right?" He just nodded; trying so hard to be calm around her.
Elena shifted in her place nervously. She knew she was next but all she was wondering was why no one's doing anything to stop her? It was like she had them all under some sort of spell. Finally Anna reached Elena and eyed her from head to toe. She said loud enough for everyone to hear: "I know you've probably heard this a thousand times but you look exactly like her…"
"She knows Katherine?" All of them thought at the same time. Her next words weren't so appealing to the scared doppelganger: "Although she has better taste…" She was specifically looking at her blue sweater. Anna looked around and finally saw her. She was waiting to see her and have some fun.
She blurred in front of her; catching everyone by surprise and make her gasp. No one tried to do a thing. They were all mesmerized by her seductive actions. She reminded them of Katherine but hell of a lot better…
"So you're the one who tried to manipulate my husband…" She whispered into her ear; making her shiver. Caroline started to stutter: "I ddi didn't try to do that…" Anna smirked and moved a little further from her. She made herself comfortable on the couch near the fireplace. She was just like a bomb to them; they were all waiting for her to explode…
"Don't you wanna give me a drink Damon? I'm so thirsty…" She murmured and leaned more into the warm couch. Her words seemed to snap Damon out of his daze. He blurred in front of her; bending over the couch. Their faces were inches apart. He spat: "Why the fuck are you here?"
She moved her face closer to his and whispered: "I wanted to see you Damon…" She pushed him aside and stood up. She continued: "I wanted to see all of you…" Stefan spoke up again: "Why? What do you want? Did Klaus send you here?"
She laughed his words off and said: "Are you that stupid? Klaus would send me to his sworn enemies' house? " "Then what?" Stefan challenged her. She walked to him slowly. The sound of her heels filled the silent house.
He passed by Stefan and Alaric. She moved to Elena and Caroline. She passed them by too. She went for Damon's little bar in the house and grabbed Champagne. She popped it open and filled her glass slowly. They were all patiently waiting to hear something and she knew it. She was just enjoying the show.
She took a sip from her glass and finally said clearly: "I'm here to help you kill Klaus…"
Finally! It's one of my favorite chaps! Just imagine the last scene in the show! Hehe!
Reviews are much appreciated...
