Hey guys! Here is the next chapter :) I am so so sorry for the long wait!

I hope this chapter makes up for my long absence some how.

Enjoy :D


Bonnie sat around her friends nervously and they looked at her confused.

"Bon, what's going on?" Elena asked worriedly and Stefan nodded.

"We need to leave." Bonnie replied immediately. She didn't trust vampires but she knew that what Kol was saying was true.

Bonnie looked over at Shane who stood on the shore throwing rocks into the water. She sighed and turned to face the group around her. Rebekah, Damon, Stefan, Elena, and Jeremy sat near her with confused looks on their faces.

"I am not leaving this godforsaken island without the cure." Rebekah spat.

"Finding that cure is going to get us all killed." Bonnie said calmly.

"What are you talking about?" Stefan asked.

Bonnie looked over at Rebekah and said, "You need to know something."

"What?" Rebekah wondered.

"Your brother Kol is alive. He's with Klaus, Elijah, and Caroline right now." Bonnie said quickly.

"What!?" Elena and Damon yelled.

Shane looked over at them confused and Bonnie told them, "Lower your voices! Shane is possessed by Silas. We need to leave her without trouble."

"So what do you recommend we do?" Stefan asked.

"Hold up… My brother is alive?" Rebekah asked as she furrowed her eyebrows in confusion.

"Yes,"

"If you are lying to me, I swear to god I will snap your neck right here and now." Rebekah said dangerously low.

"If you don't believe me, call Caroline's phone." Bonnie said as she handed Rebekah her cell phone.

Rebekah looked at Bonnie with narrowed eyes but took the phone anyway. She went into the phonebook and when she finally found Caroline's number she clicked it. Rebekah put the phone to her ear and waited for somebody to answer.

"Hello?" Caroline asked on the other end of the line confused.

"Caroline," Rebekah acknowledged.

Caroline looked between the three brothers and Kol extended his hand for the phone. Caroline gave him the phone and he put it to his ear.

"Greetings from the dead," Kol greeted.

"Kol," Rebekah breathed out shocked.

"Did you miss me?" Kol asked as a grin formed on his lips. He knew that Rebekah couldn't see him but he couldn't help it.

"How?" Rebekah asked.

"Just like that little sister. Do make sure you come back here as soon as possible, alright?" Kol asked.

"Why do you want us to leave the island without the cure?"

"If Silas is released he will kill all of you." Kol warned.

"How do you know that?" Rebekah wondered.

"I told you Rebekah, many times actually. Throughout the centuries the witches and I gathered… we gathered because we wanted to make sure that nobody would find out about the cure."

"I want to be human though." Rebekah whined.

"Do you really? You want to be fragile, and powerless? Do you really want to die of old age?" Kol asked.

"Yes… if it means that I will be able to have my own family I'd do it."

"You have family Rebekah." Kol said quietly.

"We haven't been a family for a long time."

Klaus and Elijah frowned at one another when they heard their little sister say that. She was right, they thought.

"We could fix that Bekah. Just come home!" Kol told her.

"Alright, alright!" Rebekah replied defeated.

"Come to the Gilbert household with the rest of the Scooby Gang, alright?"

"Alright," Rebekah said as she hung up.

"Did he just call us the Scooby Gang?" Damon asked.

"Yup," Stefan nodded.

"We need to leave. Now."

"Leave? Where do you think you're going?" Shane asked as he went over to them.

"Back home. Something came up and we're needed there." Stefan told Shane.

"No. We can't leave! Not yet. We need to find Silas and the cure."

"I'm sorry Shane; we'll need to choose another time." Bonnie told him.

"You're not going anywhere." Shane cried out.

"I beg your pardon?" Damon asked as he got all up in Shane's face.

"I said you're not going anywhere. Silas won't let you."

"Newsflash Professor McCreepy, Silas is dead. He has been for the past two millennia's."

"I won't let you go."

"I'd love to see you try and stop us." Damon laughed.

"Shane… nobody has to get hurt. We'll come back." Bonnie told him soothingly.

"You're lying!" Shane shouted as he looked around the group.

Jeremy and Elena sat silently as they watched the conversation unfold. Elena didn't even want the cure and she wasn't about to risk Jeremy's or anybody else's life for her own selfish needs.

Elena huffed and stood up.

"Shane, you either come with us peacefully or we leave you here." She threatened.

"You won't leave me here. Bonnie will lose herself to the expression if I am not there to help her through it."

"I don't think I will need your help Shane." Bonnie told him. If Kol knew so much about Silas then she was sure that he knew how to control her expression.

Damon looked over at Bonnie and Bonnie nodded. Damon bit into Shane's neck and drained him from an inch of his life.

Shane fell to the floor in an unconscious heap and the others scrambled to their feet.

"We have to get out of here. Now." Rebekah told them.

They nodded and ran towards the boats. Once they were settled into the boats they let out their breaths.

"I'm sorry Elena." Bonnie told her.

"It's fine. I don't want the cure anymore."

"You don't?" Damon asked.

"No, if I would have to choose between the cure and the safety of my friends and family I would choose the safety of my friends and family."

Jeremy smiled at his older sister and put his arm around her. Elena hugged him and Rebekah sighed. If only her family was like Elena's, she thought.

Klaus, Elijah, Kol, and Caroline sat in the living room impatiently.

"So Caroline, do tell me how it is you made my brother fall in love with you."

"Kol," Klaus warned.

"I am just trying to make conversation with my future sister-in-law." Kol defended.

"Kol… Klaus and I aren't getting married… not yet at least." Caroline told the younger Mikaelson.

"You want to get married eventually?" Klaus asked as he perked up and stared at his Caroline.

"I don't know." Caroline laughed nervously.

Klaus smiled and put his arm around Caroline. Caroline nuzzled into Klaus' neck and sighed.

Elijah shook his head and Klaus noticed.

"Is there a problem dear brother?" Klaus asked through gritted teeth.

"Nope, there is no problem. I am just not used to seeing you like this."

"Like what?"

"Happy," He said honestly.

"Well Elijah, Caroline makes me happy." Klaus smiled and his dimples showed.

"Just like Katarina makes me happy." He whispered.

"Why did you mention the doppelgangers name Elijah?" Klaus asked as he furrowed his eyebrows in confusion. Klaus only caught Katherine's name.

"No reason," Elijah lied.

"He's in love with the manipulative bitch, you idiot." Kol said and huffed.

"You're in love with Katarina? Since when?" Klaus asked as his eyebrows rose even further.

"I'm not in love with her." Elijah pretended.

"You're lying to me. I don't take kindly to lies Elijah and you of all people should know that." Klaus warned.

"What do you want me to tell you, Niklaus? Katarina and I can't be together because you are going to kill her the moment you see her." Elijah sighed and got off of the couch. He began to pace the small area sadly.

"She ruined my plan, Elijah. She deserves to die."

"She didn't ruin your bloody plan! She was a human girl and a teenager at that. She was afraid and so she did what she thought was best… she ran."

"A teenager, huh? If she was such an innocent little teenager she wouldn't have given birth out of wedlock but she did. She isn't innocent Elijah. She never was." Klaus told his brother the truth.

"It doesn't matter to me Niklaus. I love her." Elijah admitted.

"Does she love you?" He asked.

"Yes," Elijah answered.

"Are you sure about that? She isn't just screwing with you? Look at your life and look at your choices Elijah." Klaus said as he rolled his blue-grey eyes at his brother's stupidity.

"I will not tolerate you speaking to me in that way." Elijah warned while his hands were behind his back.

"Well you better bloody tolerate it. If you were to tell me that you were in love with the Bennett witch or a human I would give you my blessing but Katarina? I can't do it."

"Bonnie is mine." Kol warned.

Klaus and Elijah shot angry looks at Kol and he raised his hands in defeat.

"Just saying…" He added before looking down at the ground. Kol wanted the Bennett witch for himself because he felt something for her. Kol never felt anything for anybody in the past five hundred years. The last time he ever felt something for a woman was back in the 16th century. She was a witch and her name was Natasha. He fell in love with her instantly. Natasha wouldn't give Kol the time of day in the beginning but he continued to press her until she did. They fell in love and then Natasha was ripped away from him brutally. Natasha was killed and Kol couldn't do anything to save her.

Kol's siblings didn't know about this girl because Kol kept her secret. Klaus was in his killer phase back then and if Klaus was to find out about Natasha he would kill her immediately. Kol didn't tell Elijah about her because he knew that Elijah was to torn up because of the loss of his Katarina. Kol and Rebekah never really got along so he wasn't about to tell her his secret. Finn was still in a box so he wasn't exactly the best listener.

Kol took in a shaky breath and released it. He could feel his eyes begin to water and he cleared his throat. He was not going to start crying in front his older brother's and Caroline.

Caroline smiled as she looked over at Kol. So he was interested in Bonnie after all, she concluded.

"Why can't you just forget about what happened five hundred bloody years ago?" Elijah asked irritated.

"Because I do not forget." Klaus answered dangerously low.

"If you were to kill Katarina in that sacrifice you wouldn't have been in Mystic Falls right now. You wouldn't have met the love of your life."

"I would have met Caroline eventually." Klaus defended.

"You would love her as a human?" Elijah asked as he raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"How do you know about that?" Caroline asked.

"Katarina told me one night." Elijah answered her.

"Klaus… maybe you should grant Katherine her freedom." Caroline offered.

"Now why would I do that, love?" Klaus asked.

"Everybody deserves to be with their one true love." She simply stated.

"Katherine doesn't deserve to be happy. She's a psychotic bitch that only cares about herself." Klaus told Caroline.

"Maybe Katherine doesn't deserve to be happy but Elijah does. Elijah is your brother. He is your flesh and blood and he stood by your side for the past millennia. Don't you want him to be happy?" Caroline questioned.

"I… I guess… But with Katherine? She'll ruin him." Klaus said to his Caroline.

"If she does anything to harm Elijah you will kill her. I know you Klaus. Family above all is the motto in the Mikaelson family isn't it?" Caroline asked.

"It is," The three of them answered.

"So there you have it." Caroline told him and smiled at him.

"What will it be, Niklaus?" Elijah asked hopefully. Caroline truly was a special girl, he thought.

"Be with her if you want but if she does anything! Anything at all, I will kill her and you won't stop me. Do you understand me?"

Elijah nodded and the front door opened.

"Here goes," Caroline told the three Mikaelson men.

"Here goes," They agreed.


There you have it!
