Devon's black and white tux ruffled with each step he took to the room that his father graced Lady Katherine with. Katherine had been getting rather close to Damon. Yet when the boy was sent off to war, courtesy of their father, Katherine turned being entertained by the younger brother, Stefan.

"When Damon went after Lady Katherine, Stefan showed no interest in courting her, so why now. This is not like Stef." Devon thought to himself as he neared Katherine's room.

"Lady Katherine," Devon sneered out with a slight bow to Katherine.

"Oh, how I have missed your company. Where have you been, My Love?" Katherine mocked back with a small giggle.

"I was studying abroad by a very talented educator. I do not think we need to hide behind pleasantries, My Lady. You are playing my brothers against each other and I am standing in your way. We do not like each other."

"I like you…" Katherine said with a faux pout," You know what I am, so why not tell your father. He hates and hunts my kind."

"My brothers are quite taken with you." Devon replied as he walked to the nightstand the vampire sat at.

"Oh, now do not lie, My Love. That cannot be your only reason." Katherine replied ran a brush through her ebony hair.

Hearing a carriage come up to the house with his enhanced hearing, Devon turned to leave, knowing his brother was coming in soon. Stopping in the doorway, Devon looked over his shoulder to Katherine.

"You are right, My Lady, there is… The one whom has been teaching me to control my powers told to relay a message to you. 'I am coming, Katerina' he said." Devon finally replied.

Devon smirked at the fear he saw in Katherine's reflection before walking out causing everything to turn white.

"Wakey wakey, My Love." Katherine's voice broke Devon out of his memory dream.

****present day***

Looking around, Devon saw that he was in the queen bed he had fallen asleep in. White pallid sheets of the bed ruffled as the fae sat up at the delicious smell of eggs and bacon. Setting his sights to the entrance of the room, he saw Katherine leaning on the doorway with a steaming plate in her hands.

"I called them my brothers." Devon whispered looking to the ceiling, "That's why they both seem so familiar... That's why look like Damon... We are twins."

Katherine sighed as she walked up to him and set the breakfast plate on the stand by the bed.

"Yes they are, Devon."

"Stefan attacked me, almost killed me. Why would he do that to his own brother?" Devon asked as he sat up.

"Your brothers loved you and you loved them. He was a brand new vampire and you smell more intoxicating than any human. It doesn't matter about blood, your aroma made his vampire side overtake his mind. It's not his fault." Katherine reasoned, defending Stefan.

Sighing and deciding to push the memory away for now, and grabbed the meal from the table and took a bite before turning to the vampire.

"You have not eaten human food for what, five hundred year, yet you can make perfect eggs, interesting indeed." Deon joked when he tasted the delectable breakfast.

"What can I say, when you go into hiding for that long, you have a lot of free time on your hands." Katherine shrugged as she laid down on the bed.

After a few minutes of eating in silence, Devon decided to see if she would answer some of his questions again.

"I hated you when you were with my family. I remember, so how are we friends now? When I woke up with you, I instantly trusted you, why?" Devon questioned.

"I told you before. You need to get the memory back for yourself, or else you will create artificial memories."

"You told me why we call each other 'My Love' and 'My Lady', and tonight the memory of that night came back. If it were an artificial memory, I would not have seen it through my own eyes." Devon argued.

Sighing, Katherine indulged the fae and answered, "After around fifty years, you found me. I knew you were with Klaus and would tell him about me, so I attacked you… I lost. But I told you that your brothers were alive and you spared me and even hid me from Klaus."

"…And?"

"Sorry my love, you have to remember the rest yourself." Katherine waved her arms in the air as she sat up on the bed.

Holding up the broken chains that had been holding the vampire hunter she said," Mikael ran and I have no idea where he is. I need a locator spell, Devon. I need Klaus dead and I cannot have a delirious hunter ruining that."

"What if I could get Klaus to stop hunting you without him dying, Katherine?"

"How?" Katherine replied shortly as her eyes narrowed.

"Klaus trusts me, we are friends; plus, as I recall, his older brother and you are still taken with each other. I can reason with him and get him to forgive you."

"Elijah…" The girl whispered sadly," Even if you could get the hybrid to trust me, I do not think his brother would do so easily."

Setting the empty plate on the desk near them, the fae set his hand on her shoulder comfortingly.

Tilting his head, Devon finally spoke, "I remember Elijah. He and Kol were the only ones who knew of me aside from Klaus. I had been with the three brothers; though I had heard multiple stories about their sister, I had never actually met her. By the time I was in the coffin, Rebekah had been awakened. But Elijah spoke of you once, he said it had been centuries since he had even seen you, yet he still loved you."

After convincing her slightly they came to an agreement. He could and would stop Klaus from hunting her and even get the hybrid to forgive her. While he worked on convincing and keeping his brothers and Klaus from killing each other, Katherine would work with his brothers to make sure everything went as planned. Taking hold of the chains, Devon began to chant the spell to find the hunter.

After a few seconds, he located the original to a bar in Mystic Falls. Putting on his trusty cloak, Devon teleported to the bar in the cover of the shadows. With the collar off, he was able to mask himself without the charm. The collar was made to make him sleep until Klaus opened his coffin and to hide his power when he was asleep, but the side effects were the memory loss and power decrease. The power came back instantly once the collar was off, but the memories were not so easily fixed.

"Can you tell me the last time you spoke to Niklaus?" the hunter's voice sounded out from the other side of the bar.

"I am compelled to do what he says, and he says to keep my damn mouth shut." Stefan replied.

"I really hope this game of twenty questions isn't your secret weapon." Damon interrupted smug as ever.

Fear rose in Devon chest for Damon to have the hunter so close to him. The fear only amplified as Mikael grabbed Damon's left shoulder.

"You see, Damon. I have been a vampire hunter longer than you have been alive. It's why I found you here, it's why I'm going to find Niklaus."

Damon countered, "Well, Klaus has been running for about a thousand years, so if you think you are going to get a workaround he-"

His sentence cut off when Mikael plunged his fist into Damon's chest. Devon began to move till the plan came to his mind. If his brothers knew about him, they would certainly mess the plan up.

Watching the hunter egg Klaus' location out of Stefan, Devon hummed lowly and released enough power for only the original to hear. The hunter's head turned to his direction as he sniffed lightly before turning back to Damon and shoving his fist deeper.

When he started though, Devon sent a searing pain to the man's brain and used his power to stop the original's arm from going any deeper. The only indication that the man was in pain was the almost unnoticeable grimace and another look to the fae's direction.

"I can bring him back. I can lure Klaus back to Mystic Falls." Stefan insisted.

Letting go of Damon, Mikael turned back to Stefan and replied, "Ah, and there is our loophole. Just had to rile him up a bit. Get Klaus back to Mystic Falls and I will gladly drive a stake through his heart. Fail, and I will drive it through you."

When the searing pain came back, Mikael grunted out, "You have a guardian angel watching over you two, Stefan. That's the only reason why your brother is alive right now."

When the vampire hunter exited the bar, Devon teleported and froze him in place. The man, only able to move his head, shifted slightly to look to the cloaked Fae.

"What are you? No human has this power, not even the witches do."

"If you touch the Salvatore brothers again, I will kill you, slowly."

"It is no good to give the enemy your weakness. It could be your downfall, boy. "

Devon smiled grimly," I will be watching closely. If you even make a move to hurt them, I will know, and I will come for you."

After his reply, Devon teleported back to the house he and Katherine currently were staying at.

***outside***

"Well I give you ten points for flair." Damon said sarcastically as he and Stefan walked back to the car.

"Now we know where Klaus and Elijah learned their tricks from." Stefan replied," Though what did he mean by 'Guardian Angel'?

"Don't know, but I don't think you had to wait till the last second to have you breakthrough."

Stefan chuckled," Didn't have a breakthrough, Damon."

"'Ooh, ooh. My brother is about to die and I just had to save his life for the bajillionth time.' Carful Stefan, your humanity is showing." Damon countered.

Stopping at the car, Stefan smiled to Damon and said," You know what? You are right, Damon. You reminded me what my freedom felt like. And when we kill Klaus, I will be free. Free to leave. See I didn't do this for you, Damon, I did this for myself."

"Sure, Stefan." Damon replied rolling his eyes and turning away.

Stefan grabbed Damon's arm and turned him back to face him," Why are you doing this, huh? What do you want from me? Why is everybody trying to save me?"

"Because I have to, Stefan." Damon retorted, "Because you in this mess with Klaus because you saved my life. Because I owe you... And I can't just leave you in a cell to rot."

Stefan grinned with amusement as he mocked," Aw, careful Damon, your humanity is showing."

With that, Damon punched Stefan sending Stefan sprawled out onto the paved road. Stefan got to his knees and attempted to attack Damon only to end up on the ground. After trying one more time only to land on his back again. Stefan grinned a toothy grin as Damon walked away till Damon stopped and turned around. Anger showed on Damon's face, more anger than Stefan had seen before making Stefan's toothy grin go down to a simple smirk.

"I already lost one brother because of you, Stefan. I won't lose another." Damon snapped out before blurring away.

Stefan's smirk fell at Damon's word as he laid on the ground. Looking up, bewildered regret marred his face.

"He know…"

***later***

"I'm not mad." Elena insisted as she pulled at the covers under Damon," I'm tired, I just, I want to go to bed."

Ignoring her statement, Damon continued," No, I think Mikael's weapon is a stake, because he mentioned something about it."

"Well then, they must have carved it from the white oak tree before they burned it down." Elena replied.

"So I was right," Damon said as Elena gave up and got into bed with him," After all that, the wall led us to Mikael."

"It led us to more than just that," Elena sighed as she adjusted herself in bed," I think it got Rebekah on our side as well."

"Really? What did you learn from that?"

"I learned that she is just a girl. She lost her mom to young and she loves blindly and recklessly, even if it consumes her." Elena told as her turned to rest on her side looking at Damon," You know, when all is said and done, there is nothing more important than the bond of family."

Resting on his side facing Elena, Damon replied," You should tell that to my brother."

Sighing as she turned off the light, the human replied, "I'm not mad at you for letting him out, Damon. I think you are gonna be the one to save him from himself. It won't be because he loves me… It will be because he loves you."

"If Bonnie did not undo the ghost spell, Devon would have been able to stay longer," Elena said while yawning and closing her eyes," Was about to get through to… Stefan….But had to… go."

Damon's eyes widened at the doppelganger's revelation and vainly tried to wake her.

"Devon…"
