Months have passed since Alessia had left mystic Falls with Klaus and her brother Stefan in search for werewolves. At first, she was confused of why Klaus was so adamant on finding werewolves then he told her his plan he had come up with. To build his own hybrid army. She didn't understand why he needed his own army since he was now the strongest and most powerful being. To need no one to protect him. She kept these thoughts to herself of course not wanting to say something wrong and have Klaus question where her loyalty lies. If it came and she sees how Klaus's plan is backfiring, then she would step in and do something about it. Until then she would have to wait and see. Her summer have been spent on the road, travelling thousands of miles across different states. Following leads to where werewolf packs could be, since werewolves are now becoming an extinct species. Being hunted down by humans, vampires or people not breaking the curses and becoming ones. As each lead goes to a dead end she could see how Klaus was growing more and more frustrated. Whilst Stefan on the other hand was continuing to be Klaus's slave doing whatever he says, to kill anyone. She could see as each kill the more humanity was slipping away. Alessia is becoming more worried for her brother's humanity not wanting him to become a ripper again. It took many decades for both her and Lexi to bring him back, she didn't want to do it again. This latest lead that they were following was in Tennessee where a werewolf Ray Sutton would be. Hopefully he would lead them to his werewolf pack. They would wait and see.

Alessia was on her phone, scrolling through Instagram and then snapchat. Watching other people snapchat stories and then using different snapchat filters on herself, Stefan and then Klaus. The two of them wasn't so happy about it you can say the least. Klaus was near to losing his tiff. the tip of the iceberg to it was Alessia switching between songs. He's had enough. "Alessia as much I've enjoyed you choosing the songs on this road trip. There's just so much Ariana Grande and Ed Sheeran songs I can handle" He complained sounding irritated continuing on. "Don't get me started on the selfies" He added which was all true. Alessia turned to look over to Klaus. "How Rude!" She glared at him. . (Full house quote 3) Stefan in the back was amused by it. "I'm sure Stefan will agree" He added waiting for Stefan to say something. "Yeah" Stefan mumbled not saying much to it. "Its decided then…" He declared stopping half way, reaching over Klaus took Alessia's phone from her hands and throwing it out of the car window. The iPhone smashing to bits by an oncoming car. Alessia was shocked by what he did not thinking he would do it. "What the hell that's my phone" Alessia argued looking pissed off to say the least. "You can have my phone" Stefan interjected handing her his phone to keep her quiet for the time being. "Thanks Stef" She grinned to him but sent Klaus a scowl. When unlocking Stefan's phone, she had noticed how his background was of him and Elena, his photos were full of Elena. One thing that had intrigued her when stalking through his phone was his text messages like hers they were full of ones from Damon asking where they were. Unlike hers there was hundreds of ones from Elena. Alessia froze for a moment in disbelief almost. 'How can Elena be sending him text when she's dead?' Alessia thought to herself. 'Maybe she wasn't dead all along'. Alessia looked over to her twin when Klaus was focused on driving, sending him a message through twin telepathy almost. That she knew what he was hiding. Alessia knew she couldn't let Klaus know since he was full on board thinking that the doppelganger was dead.

Klaus had talked her through his plan of action to see if Ray Sutton is inside of the house or not. Plan A was to get invited in and then Plan B was to use brute force aka Stefan. It has been the same as the last places they have stopped at. "Rudy! Rudy. Come on! It's too hot to make me come looking for you" They could hear the voice of someone calling a lost dog, it must be one of the people who lives in the house. Klaus looked to her seeing if she was ready and knew what to do, she nodded her head in answer. The two Mikaelson's appeared in front of the woman making her jump in surprise, not knowing that they are there. "I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to scare you." Klaus spoke apologizing in a fake American accent, Alessia laughed a little hearing him. "Can I help you?" The woman asked looking to them both. "Yeah, my car hmm, our car ran out of gas a couple of miles back. Eh we feel like I've been walking forever yours is the first house I come to so I was just hoping I could use your phone?" He lied going through any cover up story he normally used. "Don't you have a cell phone?" She asked them but the two shook their heads in response. "Huh, yeah…" Klaus began to say before pulling out his phone he purposely turned off. "Battery died. Look, I promise I'm not a serial killer I just wanna use your phone." He lied trying to gain her trust enough to be invited in, Alessia wanted to laugh a little at him saying he wasn't a serial killer but kept a straight face for the act. "What about your phone?" She could see that the woman wasn't believing that both their batteries had died at the same time. "It got smashed because Nik here decided to throw my phone out of the car window" She pointed out truthfully glaring at Klaus who stood beside her trying to look innocent in it all. "I don't know what you're talking about" Klaus answered back. The woman chuckled a little watching the two of them have their little squabble. "Sure" The woman sighed agreeing. "Soo, we can come in?" Klaus asked giving a fake smile to draw her in. "No, I'll get you the phone and I'll bring it out to you" She wasn't sorft enough to left them inside of the house. Alessia watched as Klaus's face turned sour, he wasn't happy one bit. "I thought your country folks were supposed to be more trusting." he spoke in annoyance going back to his normal accent instead of the fake American one he had been using. "I'm from Florida." The woman shot back to him. "Well, that explains it. "He appeared in front of her grabbing her throat and compelling her. "Now show me a little southern hospitality. Sweet pea." He threatened, soon compelling their way into the house.

When entering the house there was a voice speaking out thinking it was the other woman. "bet you a hundred dollars that dog ran off to a house with air conditioning." She commented, when turning around she had noticed the three of them walking in. Klaus was holding the nape of the woman's neck with one hand, she was sobbing in fear. "What's going on?" The woman asked shakenly. "Please don't be alarmed. We were told Ray Sutton lives here." The three of them have been chasing leads all summer to find in, she could see that the two women knew who he was and where he was. "He's almost never here. He's on the road mostly." Alessia hoped that they knew where he was and for this not to end a dead end like all the others. She was starting to lose hope. It was the end of the summer, end of months of searching for werewolves without finding one. Alessia looked over to Klaus those if he had something up his sleeve to get these humans to tell them what they knew. "But I expect he makes it home, once a month. That's what I thought. Where is he now?" Klaus had a cunning grin on his face when the humans didn't answer his question. "If I have to make you tell me it's going to be infinitely more painful for you. Hmm." He smiled watching the other woman run out of the window to open the front door in hope of escaping. As predicted Stefan was there standing in the doorway. Trapping them in. "Aaah!" The woman screamed in fright. Klaus still had the blonde woman in front of him, using as a pawn. "I love it when they run!" He grinned his thick British accent coming out. "He's in Toll. It's near the border. A bar called Southern Comfort. It's on Highway 41" The woman had given up seeing that they were outnumbered with three of us and only being two of them. "Thank you, my love." Klaus touched the woman's hair to comfort a little before using her. "Now, may my friend come in?" He asked softly referring to Stefan who have yet to be invited in "Yes." She cried Stefan entering the house after but stopping waiting for Klaus's next command.

"Are you hungry?" Klaus asked looking over to Alessia knowing that she would be craving blood soon enough. Since the werewolf bite a few months ago she had been feeling craving blood more than before. Alessia nodded her head to him in answer. Klaus pushed the first woman to Stefan "Kill this one quickly." He told him before looking to the other woman. "And make that one suffers. I'll be in the car." With that Klaus left the house with a grin on his face. "Please don't!" The woman sobbed knowing what was going to happen. Stefan just looked at her as his face was beginning to transform. His eyes becoming black as the veins appeared under his eyes. He bit into the woman's neck all could be heard was the screaming of the two women. Alessia didn't say anything but had a grin on her lips as she turned to the other woman ready to drain her dry. Using her vampire speed, she appeared in front of her, she picked her up and bit into her neck. Drinking her of all her blood. The Salvatore twins drank both woman dry and left behind of all that they had done. Showing that they had been there...

When they were done, they went back the car where Klaus was waiting for them. As usual Stefan went and sat in the backseat not saying anything going back to his brooding self. Probably feeling remorse for what they had done, killing those two women in cold blood. Alessia went and sat in the passenger seat beside Klaus, he had turned to her. "Feeling much better, love?" He asked smiling to her. "Much better" She nodded her head smiling back at her. "You got a little something" Klaus told her motioning to the blood that was still left around from earlier. He licked his finger and used it to wipe away the blood from her face. "All gone" He smirked their faces were becoming closer and closer. She could almost feel his breath on her face. Alessia then remembered that Stefan was still in the car which meant she and Klaus couldn't get too close. She was just stuck in the moment and shaped back into reality remembering. She moved away from Klaus's face turning her attention away. "Let's go to Toll" She announced with fake excitement Alessia couldn't wait for them to be done with their road trip to find werewolves. The past few months they have spent on a wild goose chase, endless hours in cars and then staying in cheap motels. She couldn't wait to go to a grand hotel and spend the day shopping in expensive shops. Buying clothes and make up for no reason because she could. For now, she was stuck on an endless road trip with Klaus and her twin brother who was on the verge of becoming a full-blown ripper again. Alessia could see how lately he's barely holding it together. It was like Stefan was broken once more.

|| Meanwhile with Damon and Alaric

A silver car pulled up in front of the Tennessee farm house, outstepped both Damon and Alaric. The two were following a lead on Stefan and Alessia's whereabouts, they had been secretly tracking the two siblings down for months. Being one or two steps back. Damon's phone began to ring, after looking at it he pressed it to voicemail not wanting to answer it. "Elena?" Alaric asked turning to his best friend but Damon just made a face at him in response. "I don't know why you just don't come clean and tell her where we are." He was trying to talk sense to Damon but it seemed liked it didn't work out. "Because Andie said this was a half lead and I don't want to get her hopes up." Andie was helping them to find leads which lead them here. "Yeah, well they're all half leads, and I'm your accomplice. What do you want me to say to her, I'm practically living there?" Alaric hated lying to Elena since Jenna's death he had been living there, she looked at him like a father figure. Even though he wasn't much of one these days. "Still sleeping on the couch?" Damon asked whilst looking around the farm. "You know, I keep waiting for them to kick me out but they don't. I don't know why, it's not like I'm helping or anything." He added. "Mm-mm." Damon agreed with Alaric. "It's quiet." They could both sense something wasn't right "Yeah. Too quiet." He knew as of much that quiet wasn't good thing when checking out leads. Alaric took the lead when entering the house whilst Damon was a bit weary at first whether he could go in. He tested the door with his foot first but it was free for him to walk in. No need to be invited in meaning that the residents living there was dead. "

Oh yeah" as they entered the house both noticed straight away that something was no right as predicted earlier it was way to quiet. Looking around at the house bloody handprints were covered around the wall with smear marks. Leading into the sitting room where the found the bodies of the two-woman sitting upright on the living room couch. Almost looking as if they were watching TV but wasn't. "Ugh. Vampire for sure" Alaric muttered examine the bodies. "Stefan and Alessia for sure" Damon answered without a second thought. Looking at the two bodies of the dead woman he felt somewhat guilty in a way. "How do you know?" Alaric was curious to know why Damon knew for sure that it was them. "It's their signature, mostly Stefan's. There's a reason why people call them the Ripper Twins. Especially with what happened back in Monterey" He told his friend who was unknown to the twin's darkest moments. "Monterey?" He didn't know what Damon meant by it but could see if was important information. "Back in 1919 the two of them wiped out an entire migrant village in one night" Alaric was shocked by how the two of them could do something like that he hadn't though Alessia could. "For Stefan, he feeds so hard he blacks out and rips them apart, but then when he's done, he feels remorse. It's the damndest thing." Damon lifted his leg and wobbled it on the first woman's knee with his foot before hitting it. "He put the bodies back together." Her head fell off onto the floor in front of them. "Back together?" Alaric was horrified finding Stefan's true intentions. "Definitely Stefan." Damon answered "Alessia isn't as bad as Stefan with her she's never needed to switch it off to feel no remorse. She just puts it behind her, like me"

~~ Back to Alessia

Alessia had only enough time to take and shower and get ready before heading back on the road. If they weren't quick enough they may miss their lead on finding Ray Sutton. She had told the two of them her plan she had thought together since it was her time be the bait. Alessia arrived at the bar she looked up at the sign before going in checking to see if it was the right bar. Stefan had already gone inside and compelled all the people ready for later if things didn't go as planned or straight forward with Ray. Something you learn is always to have a plan B or C.

All eyes were on her as she made her way to the bar. The low life men saw their latest prey. She could hear the men whistling as she walked and Klaus growing protectively front outside. Instead of shooting daggers at them she kept her head held high and eyes on the prize. When arriving at the bar she kept still waiting for their wolf. She heard someone come up beside her leaning on the bar looking at her closely. Alessia could sense the presence of a werewolf entering the bar, could it be the wolf that they had been looking for? Hopefully it was after all these months of searching. She could bet her chances that he would head first over to the bar and hit on her. Like all the other low lives were doing. She was being mobbed by men since she was the only woman around. She could sense the werewolf heading to the direction she was at without looking. Alessia waited for him to come to her, as she had expected the werewolf was at her side. Staring her closely, taking in her beauty. He and most men was probably thinking what a woman like her was doing in a biker bar like this one. "Hey there beautiful" The man complimented with a wink. Alessia just looked up at him and then back to the bar vaguely noticing his presence. "The name is way" He added with another wink. A mischievous smirk appeared on her lips as she heard the name. 'Bingo' Alessia thought to herself, they had found their wolf. She turned to look back at him. "I'm Alessia. I've heard quite a few things about you Ray" She revealed smirking to him, he seemed a bit confused and taken back a little.

"You see I've been searching for you, and now I have found you" Alessia mused grinning. "I don't know what you're talking about woman" he began to say stepping away from her. Using her vampire speed, she appeared in front of him, stopping him from leaving. "I'm not letting you leave Ray" She informed, it seemed he could sense something was wrong. "You vampire bitch…" Ray began to say cursing her but was cut off by Klaus appearing beside Alessia. "That is no way to speak to a lady" Klaus retaliated protective over his wife. "Who are you?" Ray questioned. "I think you should apologies to my wife here before I lose my temper and do something that I won't regret" He threatened waiting for an apology but instead Ray spat at him. "Bullshit" He cursed. Alessia could see that Klaus was done with playing nice, his anger was coming out. Ray turned around and started to walk away but was stopped by Stefan who arrived just in time. "I wouldn't do that." Stefan commented pushing way back to the counter. "Vampires" Ray spoke. "You're swifty swift Ray! Yes! My girl and my friend here are vampires. He compelled everybody in the bar so don't look to them for any help. I however, I'm something else, a different kind of monster. I've got some vampire, I've got some wolf." Klaus declared grinning as he boasted what he was. "You what?" Ray asked looking confused. "A hybrid Ray, I'm both. You see I want to create more of me. Now you are being the first werewolf that I've come across in many a moon, pun intended Ray! I need you to direct me to your pack. So, where can I find them Ray?" Klaus got to business of why they were here and wanted him. "You can't compel me, it won't work." He answered thinking he was safe. Klaus looked to Stefan motioning it was time for plan B. Stefan pulled out something of his back pocket before motioning to the bar man. "Can you bring out the darts please? " He asked before turning back to Ray. "Tell you what Ray, we're goanna play a little drinking game, something I like to call truth or wolfs bane." Stefan pulled out a pouch of wolfs bane pouring it into his and crushing it with his fingers. "Oh, this is gonna be fun Ray." Klaus declared grinning.

It has been a fair few hours since Stefan started to get answers from Ray and not got any luck. It seemed like Ray was loyal to his pack, keeping their secret. Alessia was sat at the bar on one of the old bar stools she had her feet resting on Klaus who was sat beside her. The two have gone through a bottle or two of bourbon between them. "I'm bored" She complained before sighing. Looking over to her brother she could see him still torturing Ray by throwing vervain darts at him. All the people in the bar were acting like normal not noticing anything unusual happening. Ignoring ray screaming every so often. "He'll give in sooner or later till then we wait" Klaus told her he too was becoming annoyed that they have gotten nothing out of him yet. "Ray, you can end this right now. Just tell me where your pack gathers for the full moon." She heard her brother saying to Ray but it seemed he didn't want to. "I can't." Ray answered. "I know, I know. You live by code and all that, but see he's not gonna let me stop until you tell me. And I do whatever he says so, that's the way it goes around here." Stefan told him motioning to Klaus who was in charge of him.

A woman walked over to Klaus with a message. "Hello mister Klaus. I have some more information for you. You told me to tell you if I saw anything. I saw the guys spotted Damon at the farm house." The woman told him telling what she had heard. It seemed like Stefan had eavesdropped and heard it too. "Well, thank you Claudine. You'll just tell your friends to keep up the good work or they're gonna watch her." Klaus smiled looking back her whilst Alessia rolled her eyes and huffed. "Who was she?" She commented spitting with a bit of venom. He had learnt the woman's name. "Nobody, just people I use for information" He reassured before continuing. "You're my only girl, the only one that matters" He leaned over and kissed her on the cheek softly. Stefan coughed a little making his presence known. The past few months he had seen his sister and Klaus becoming closer to each other. At first it angered him a lot but now he was more okay with it as he could see how Klaus made his sister happier. Something he haven't seen in a long time.

"Our brother still on our trail?" He asked Klaus motioning to what he had overheard. "He's getting closer, I'm gonna have to deal with that." Klaus told them standing up and started to walk away. "Nik" Alessia called trying to stop him but it seemed like Stefan had beaten her to it by grabbing Klaus's arm "No, no, no! Let me handle it." He told him both Alessia and Klaus looked to Stefan a bit confused. "Why should I let you leave?" Klaus had a point. Alessia knew that if Damon got to Stefan who wouldn't let him leave again. "Cause, you'll know I'll come back." Stefan pointed out. "Do I?" Klaus questioned, she agreed with him. "You saved my sister and brother's life; I'm at your service." He answered blankly. "Ah, you sound so tedious and indentured. Aren't you even having the least bit of fun? "Klaus pointed out Ray with a big smile on his face. She looked and saw Ray chained to the wall covered with darts. She rolled her eyes at Klaus's amusement being used to it by now. "I'll make sure that my brother doesn't bother us anymore." Stefan then left leaving them to get answers from Ray. "He'll be back" She reassured him before going back to grab her drink.

Klaus was continuing to torture Ray. In the time that Stefan have been gone they have managed to get answers out of Ray. The ones that Stefan couldn't get out of. Klaus was better at torturing answers out of people than Stefan was. Ray was now lying on his back on the pool table bleeding out from the wolfs bane darts and where they had cut open him with dagger laced in wolfs bane. "It's time" Klaus informed her motioning to him turning Ray. She watched closely. Intrigued by it. "Okay, it's a three-step process, Ray. This is step one. I want you to drink from my wrist." Klaus informed way calmly. "I already told you where to find the pack. What more do you want from me?" He still didn't get it , the reason why he was still alive? "Have you been listening to a word I've been saying, Ray? I have great plans for you." Klaus marled cutting opening his wrist and making Ray Drink his blood. "You'll thank me for it later, huh. There we go, attaboy!" He laughed grinning a little but became serious as he saw Stefan arrive. Alessia too turned to look at her brother. What are you going to do now?" Ray asked looking up to Klaus. "It's time for step two, Ray." Without another word, Klaus twisted Rays neck snapping it and killing him. "You're back" Alessia could see how Stefan was looking unemotionally, she knew something had happened when he was gone. Did you doubt me?" Stefan asked. "Not for a second. I knew you'd pass the test. You still care for your brother, for your old life." She did begin to wonder how long Klaus was going to string Stefan around with them.

As much as she loved her brother she didn't really want to spend every day of her life with him just following behind them. Klaus had to let him go at one point. "Nah, I don't care about anything anymore." Alessia was concerned for her twin, she knew something must of happened when he went to speak to Damon. Stefan had to do something to get Damon off their backs even if it meant causing more damage. "You put on a good show Stefan. I almost believe you. Let's hope, for your brother's sake, he does. You never stop caring about family, do you? But, every time you feed, the blood makes it easier to let go." Alessia looked over to Klaus seeing that he wasn't fooled by Stefan's act and could see right through, it only meant he had to push further to break through Stefan. Even if it meant she would be hurt in the process. Alessia knew she needed to get some air, the bar was starting to suffocate her. That and the tension that was between her brother and her lover. "I'm going to go out for air" Stefan told them then left the bar, the two knew he wouldn't run off because of the vow. "Now I have you all to myself" Klaus marveled smiling at Alessia taking hold her hand he pulled her closer towards him. He kissed her on the lips

After the kiss, broke Alessia felt a tingeing sensation on her lips, still feeling the warmth and tenderness. She put her fingers to her lips for a moment hovering over. It was their first kiss for a while as Stefan was always hanging around whenever the couple was together. Not wanting Stefan to find out what connection Alessia and Klaus had with one and another. The pair decided to keep the connection, romance under a wrap for the time being. "I've missed this, us my love" Klaus smiled fondly. "I have too" She admitted smiling back to him, only if they could have more moments like these more often. "Although I should say this isn't really the best place or setting" She motioned around to the low life's who were all crowded around tables inside the bar and then back to Ray who was lying unconscious on the pool table. "Dead body and all" Alessia chuckled sarcastically shaking her head for a moment. "After we find the pack and I start to make more hybrids, I promise to take you anywhere you like. Maybe even New Orleans, see how it's changed" He answered promising her escapism like he did when they first met all those years ago. Alessia cut him off almost after hearing him speak of wanting to go to New Orleans. Her first thought was of Marcel and how he was King now, Alessia knew it was best for Klaus not to know that Marcel was alive and how New Orleans is no. "N-of, not New Orleans. Somewhere else… maybe Paris" She stuttered at first before continuing smiling at the thought of going to Paris that was one of their favorite places before. Klaus was obvious to Alessia being admitted and acted weird around New Orleans

"Let's get out of here" He was about to lead her out of the bar before remembering Ray who he needed to bring him along. Klaus huffed under his breath in annoyance for a moment. "I need to go and get Ray to bring him along" Klaus kissed Alessia one last time on the cheek before letting go off her hand. "I'll be out in the car" Alessia told him and walked of out the bar. She had noticed Stefan ending a phone call with someone she could see by the look on his face he was barely holding it together. His emotions were still there under all the brooding and looking like a shell of a person. Alessia appeared at her twin's side wrapping her arms around him pulling him into a hug knowing he needed one. She could see he was on the verge of crying like he was saying goodbye almost. "Stefan, I know" She spoke quietly for only him to hear wanting him to know she was on his side. He didn't know what she meant. "I know Elena is alive" Alessia needed to be sure that she was right and waited for Stefan to give a sign that she was. Stefan nodded his head to her question making her theory right. Klaus had no idea, it needed to stay that way. If he found out she didn't know what he would do but it wouldn't be good.

When Klaus arrived back to the car getting in he had noticed that Alessia wasn't there sitting beside him in the car like normal. Turning around to look in the back he saw Alessia curled up on the backseat with her head resting on Stefan's lap. A smile appeared on his face watching how peaceful she was sleeping. All the travelling was catching up with her, she needed to rest for a while.

Author's Note:

I can't believe that The Originals will be ending next year marking the end of the TVD/TO universe, spending 8 years watching it. An end of an era. I just hope it ends with a happy ending but we'll see. I need more Joseph Morgan in my life xD
