I would like to thank anyone who supported the story. Enjoy chapter 8...
Klaus and Caroline were making their way to the hunters' village because Caroline wanted to say goodbye to her mother and her friends. She had calm down now and she was beginning to settle with the idea that she was going to spend the rest of her immortality as a werewolf.
"What are you thinking about?" Klaus said as he was walking next to Caroline.
"Nothing...Does it hurt..when you turn?" Caroline asked narrowing her eyes.
"The first time is quite painfull but once you get used to it there is nothing to be afraid of." Klaus said with a light smile trying to encourage her.
"How much time do I have before my transition is completed?" Caroline asked and stopped walking. Klaus stopped two.
"I would say about an hour or so..." he said and Caroline lowered her head.
"Do I have to turn?" Caroline asked.
"You can turn whenever you want...except for the full moon. On full moon you are doomed to turn whether you like it or not." Klaus said and touched her shoulder.
"Caroline I will be here for you. I will show you everything you need to know. You will learn to live with this. At the beginning it's going to be hard...but eventually...you will become a real werewolf." Klaus said. Caroline met his eyes.
"Do you want to help me or you are doing this because you are feeling guilty for turning me?" Caroline asked and Klaus seemed a little shocked by her question.
"Of course I want to...I was pretending to be a hunter in order to be next to you...I like you Caroline. I want to spend time with you." Klaus said and closed the space between them cupping her face. He leaned in but Caroline stopped him.
"We need to go. I have an hour to say my goodbyes." Caroline said and began walking again with Klaus following her.

Kol had just accepted Bonnie's proposal and they were going to fight till the death. That was their aggrement. Kol flashed in front of Bonnie and peaned her on a tree holding her tightly by the neck. Bonnie saw the veins under his eyes and his fangs dropping.
She didn't think twice before she used her powers causing him a major aneurism. Kol tried to resist and not loosen his grip on her but eventually he gave in to the pain and let go of Bonnie's throat kneeling on the ground and holding his head. Bonnie decided to make things a little harder for him so she started cracking his bones with her powers. With every movement of her hand another bone was cracking.
Kol was in pain. More pain than he had ever felt before. The witch was really powerful but he was still an Original. When the pain stopped he got back on his feet putting his arm back in place and tried to flash in front of Bonnie but she sent him flying at the tree behind him. Kol got up and got lost in the woods.
"Where are you going coward? We had an agreement..." Bonnie yelled.
"Yes we had." Kol's voice was heard milimeters away from her ear. He was right behind her and before Bonnie could turn around he sank his fangs on her neck.

Caroline and Klaus arrived at the village. As long as they were about to pass the border Caroline stopped dead in her tracks and so did Klaus.
"What's wrong?" Klaus asked.
"It would be better if you stayed here. If someone saw you you could get yourself killed." Caroline said.
"Are you going to be ok?" Klaus asked worried.
"I am going to be fine...thank you. Stay here. I'll be right back." Caroline said and started running towards the center of the village. As long as she arrived she saw Elena heading back to her house. She had forgot that her friend was on a mission at the vampire castle. She quickly approached her friend.
"Elena...wait. How did it go?" Caroline asked.
"Caroline...I saw her sleeping. I left her a message to meet me. I got caught but the vampire spared me. He tried to compell me but he didn't know that I had vervain on me." Elena said.
"I am glad you saw your sister." Caroline said with a smile and tears threatening to fall from her eyes.
"Caroline what's wrong?" Elena asked worried.
"Elena...I got bit by a werewolf? I am in transition." Caroline said with a tear rolling down her cheek. Elena's eyes widened in shock.
"How did it happen?" Elena said.
"It was the August full moon tonight...anyways it doesn't matter. The thing is that we have to say our goodbyes." Caroline said and opened her arms. Elena hugged her.
"Are you inshane Caroline. I won't stop being your friend just because you became a werewolf. We can still meet and go fishing together...and do all the stuff we would normally do." Elena said.
"But the species are at war." Caroline started but she was interrupted.
"I won't choose my species over you. We know each other since we were little girls." Elena said as she remained hugged with her best friend.

Back in the woods despite the feeling of the pain and the blood that she was quickly loosing Bonnie managed to focus and using her magic she blocked Kol's airway. Kol pulled away from her and took a step back dropping down on his knees as he was struggling to breath.
Bonnie tried to chant the spell she had used to stop the werewolf's heart but her nose started bleeding and before she could finish it she lost her balance and almost fell down. Kol was now back on his feet. He started approaching Bonnie looking amuzed.
"I have to admit that you are a good opponent. You put up quite a fight." Kol said as he took another step forward. Bonnie stood streight and gathering all the power she had left she tried to send him flying to the tree behind him once again but all she managed was to make him take some steps back.
Her nose started bleeding again and she fell on her knees. Her own body was betraying her. She could feel that the end was close. She was going to die by the hands of Kol Mikaelson. As he was now centimeters away Bonnie gathering all her courage managed to stand to her feet whiping the blood away from her nose. Not knowing what to do and without being able to use magic Bonnie slapped Kol in the face as hard as she could.
Kol looking more than pissed grabbed her by the neck and peaned her to the tree behind her with her feet not touching the ground. Bonnie was trying really hard to breath. Every time she was breathing the more his grip was tightening around her neck. Bonnie tried to take his hands away but it useless. He did have supernatural strength.
"Kill me." Bonnie whispered as soon as she felt Kol's hand losening around her neck. Kol had his brown eyes peaned in her green ones.
"Do it...Kill me." Bonnie said again but Kol instead of tightening his grip he let go of her. Bonnie fell to the ground coughing hard and raised her head to see Kol walking away. She stood up rubbing her neck and parting her back from the tree.
"We said till the death." Bonnie said in a low voice taking a step forward. It was almost a whisper but Kol with his vampire hearing could listen to every word. He stopped dead in his tracks. He turned around and saw Bonnie just standing there looking at him directly into the eyes. That is when he realized that what he was craving from her wasn't revenge.
Kol flashed in front of Bonnie who was caught of guard. Using his body he peaned her to the tree behind her and cupping her face he crushed his lips with hers draging her into a passionate needy kiss. Bonnie tried to resist but she finally gave in to the kiss. Her arms were soon wrapped around his neck as Kol deepend their kiss.
Suddenly Kol parted his lips from hers and took a step back. Bonnie already missed the feeling. They were just standing there looking at each other without saying a word. Kol taking another step back lowered his head and flashed away getting lost in the woods and leaving Bonnie totally confused. Bonnie touched her lips blushing at the still fresh memory of her hot kiss with Kol and taking a look around she ran back to her cabin.

Caroline entered her house and saw her mother sleeping. It was late anyways. She approached the bed and sat at the end caressing her mother's back. Liz opened her eyes.
"Caroline sweetheart...what are you doing up that late?" Liz asked sitting on the bed. A tear rolled down Caroline's cheek who pulled her mother into a hug.
"Honey is everything alright?" Liz asked again. Caroline released her.
"I came to say goodbye." Caroline said sniffing and Liz frowned.
"I got bit by a werewolf mom." Caroline said bursting in tears. Liz was in shock.
"Caroline what are you talking about?" Liz said getting out of bed.
"I am in transition. I am becoming a werewolf." Caroline said whiping some of her tears. Liz pulled her daughter into another hug. Caroline couldn't stop crying. It was the last time she was visiting her home.
"Elena told me that she is willing to meet me after I turn." Caroline said breaking the hug. Liz caressed her cheek.
"I am too honey. I can't imagine spending the rest of eternity without seeing you. Even if it means that I will have to see you turning in a wolf." Liz said. After saying their final goodbyes and after packing her stuff Caroline left the house and took the way towards the town with Klaus at her side. They would be there by morning.

The morning came. Katherine heard a knock on the door. She unwilingly opened her eyes and sat on the bed. The door opened and Lexi,Anna,Sarah and Rebekah came in with big smiles on their faces.
"Happy birthday sunshine..." the four of them yelled and shared with the smiling Katherine a big group hug.
"I don't know what is the point of celebrating birthdays when you are can leave for eternity." Katherine said and streching her body she got out of bed.
"Birthday is never pointless." Sarah said.
"It is." Anna argued.
"Who cares as long as there are presents." Lexi intervened and the girls giggled.
"We are going to let you get ready. Come down and have breakfast and then you can see Elijah's surprise for you." Rebekah said. Katherine smiled and narrowed her eyes.
"Now you triggered my curiosity. I'll be down in a minute." Katherine said and the girls after nodding left the room. Katherine put on a beautiful blue dress with silver pattern and strapless. She approached the table near by to grab her jewelerry when she noticed an envelope. She narrowed her eyes and pulled out the letter.
"There is so much that you don't know about yourself. Meet me tonight at midnight at the castle's back garden. Happy birthday. Your twin sister Elena." Katherine read and her mouth took an o shape immidiately. Was this some kind of joke? She was determined to find out.
I hope that you enjoyed the chapter. Please let me know with a review.
