"Caroline, come out, come out wherever you are love" Klaus called out spinning in a circle in the hopes of catching a glimpse of her blonde locks. It had been a rigorous 3 weeks, full of fight training and building Caroline's practically non-existent stamina. It was the night of the fight and Caroline had asked Klaus to go training with her.

His relationship with Caroline had improved as they spent more and more time together. He learnt things about her, like her hopes and dreams. And somehow in the span of 3 weeks he got her to trust him enough to open up about her relationship with Damon. He took off in the direction he thought she went in.

"Come on love" Klaus said slightly annoyed, he heard her melodic laughter taunting and teasing him. All of sudden Caroline dropped onto his back from the tree behind him, Klaus stumbled and was about to flip her when felt her breath at his neck.

"Boo!" Caroline whispered into his ear, she then pretended to nip and bite at his neck. Klaus laughed and started walking off in the direction of the camp with Caroline on his back.

"You ready for tonight love" Klaus asked rubbing his thumbs in soothing circles on her calves which were still wrapped around his mid-section. Caroline sighed in response and rested her head against his shoulder.

"Yeah… kinda" Caroline trailed off.

"What's wrong?" Klaus asked her, he had gotten surprisingly good at reading her and right now she was an open book.

"It's just… I don't want to let my pack down, or you… or…" Caroline slowly trailed off again.

"Or Damon" Klaus finished her sentence for her. He was originally bothered about the fact that she still cared and talked about Damon, but he had gotten used to it and now focused on helping her. Okay that was a lie. He hadn't gotten used to it, he hated it like he 'hated hell, all Montagues and thee'. But his conversation with Bekah came back to mind.

"Get over it Nik." Bekah stood there looking down on him with her perfectly manicured hand on her hip.

"I don't know what you're talking about Bekah" Klaus grumbled sulkily. He had just spent the day with Caroline and had counted the amount of times she had brought Damon up. 20. 20 times.

"You're all pissy because she keeps bringing Damon up" Rebekah read him perfectly, in all honesty she felt sorry for him. She knew what it was like to have the person you fall for to talk about another lover 24/7.

"No I'm not" Klaus mumbled childishly, Rebekah sighed and sat next to him and took his hands into her own.

"Aw Nik, I know it sucks but maybe you shouldn't try not changing the subject every time she brings him up. I know it's hard but maybe you need to listen and talk to her about it to help her move on" Klaus looked at her then in the direction of Caroline's tent.

"She loves you Nik. She knows it but I think she's just afraid to finally admit it and move on from her memory of Damon." Rebekah looked at his hands then stood up and started walking to her tent before turning and speaking again, "don't give up Nik." With that she left Klaus to mull over what she just said.

Klaus carried Caroline all the way back to camp, somewhere along the way Caroline had dozed off on his shoulder. When they arrived Caroline excused herself to call Marcel and ask him where they were meeting.

At 7 o'clock everyone started shifting outside, Klaus chose to stay in his human form. He looked around but couldn't see his majestic white wolf anywhere. All of a sudden said wolf walked out of her tent, fur looking as amazing as ever. The white wolf paced over to Klaus and nudged his leg, he bent down and stroked the wolf. All of a sudden the white wolf let out a howl and started running off.

Rebekah and Stefan who were next to Klaus were being pushed and jostled by the wolves running off, following their alpha.

"Come on Nik" Rebekah said before running along side the wolves, following the direction they were running in. Klaus and Stefan took off after her and soon they arrived in a clearing but there had been some sort of ancient platform with run down and crumbling pillars surrounding the perimeter. As they pushed to the front, Klaus noticed that 2 of the other alphas and their packs were missing. When they finally reached the front he saw the white wolf standing there on high alert and Marcel opposite smirking.

"You came and in bitch form" Marcel taunted which earned him several growls from the pack. Marcel's men had formed a giant circle around the pack essentially barricading them in. The white wolf let out a loud growl and snapped at him. Marcel let out a dark chuckle then looked directly into the wolfs eyes.

"Do your worst" all of a sudden the white wolf charged at Marcel but Marcel managed to duck at the right time to avoid her attack. Klaus watched intently watching as Marcel avoided every attack and how the white wolf kept charging.

"Come on love, don't waste your energy" Klaus mumbled more to himself but automatically the wolf started pacing in a circle following Marcel.

Rebekah watched constantly on edge, not knowing what could happen. When all of a sudden she caught a glimmer of something shiny in the corner of her eye. She nonchalantly looked over and saw that the vampires had drawn knives that were dripping in a liquid. If she had to make a bet it was wolfsbane.

"Klaus, Marcel's men are tooled up" Rebekah whispered so quietly only Klaus and Stefan could hear. Klaus' posture went rigid straight away and he turned looking for a brown wolf pup and noticed that it was by one of the vampires who had a knife that looked more like a sword.

All of a sudden a loud wincing broke out in the clearing and Klaus' head snapped back to the arena where he saw Caroline. His majestic white wolf lying on the floor in pain and Marcel standing over her.

"I like the idea of you going the same way as your mate. Call me a closet romantic" Marcel shouted out before biting into the white wolf who immediately whimpered.

"I win" he hissed before standing up and raising his hands in victory.

The next seconds seemed to slow down, Marcel's men edged towards the wolves who were now suddenly aware of their presence. Caroline vanished from the arena and then all of a sudden a wolf which Klaus was sure was Tessa's mate ripped into and bit the neck of one of the vampires from behind. Then all of the other werewolves started appearing, vampires charged at wolves and wolves charged at vampires.

Klaus looked around and found Rebekah ripping out one of the vampires hearts as they had latched onto one of the wolves, he then saw Stefan narrowly avoiding a knife to the heart and fighting back. Klaus surveyed the area when he heard a high pitched whining behind him.

He turned back to the arena and saw the little brown wolf huddled into a corner as a vampire neared it with a sadistic smile on his face. Without a second thought Klaus shifted and charged at the vampire, he bit into it's throat and stood in front of the wolf. Several more vampires came towards them but he managed to bite or rip off their heads. When there was a break he turned towards the wolf who had it's tail between it's legs and it's head bowed down in a surrendering motion.

He nudged it and encouraged it to follow him into the woods, he ran and ran with the wolf behind him. He halted when he heard a familiar whimper and saw the wolf on it's back with a vampire holding a stake above it's heart. He bit onto the back of the vampires neck and ripped her off the wolf and they broke into a fight until Klaus managed to get a bite lethal enough to kill her immediately. The brown wolf had stood up and started running with Klaus when he took off.

Finally they reached the camp and they stopped running, Klaus turned and saw the brown wolf take in the mayhem of their camp. Tents were torn apart, food raided and one wolf lay in the centre not breathing. Automatically, Klaus and the brown wolf let out a howl letting the news travel to the rest of the pack. One of their own had fallen.


Please review or leave me a comment :) Any ideas as to who has fallen? x
