Chapter 9: Not According To Plan


Bonnie and Kol walked through the back yard of the mansion, side by side. Bonnie loved the view of the trees and grass. A sudden rush of energy went through her and Bonnie felt slightly stronger. She didn't know what it was or why she was feeling it, but it felt good.

Bonnie reached down to touch the withered flower on the ground. Her fingers barely grazed a petal when the flower suddenly sprung to life; it's stem straightening out and its petals regaining their color. Bonnie froze in shock and quickly turned to Kol to see if he saw but he was facing in the other direction. She looked back at the flower, unsure if the past events actually happened.

Bonnie kept the news to herself. Kol would think she was crazy if she told him she just gave a flower life.

Kol stood silently next to Bonnie, letting her enjoy the scenery. He was well aware that Klaus had taken Caroline, but he could care less. Kol knew Rebekah would soon be back home once she realized that Elijah wasn't at The Grill and that he had lied to her. He wasn't too scared of her reaction, knowing full well that it would be Nik that she would be focusing her tantrum on.

Rebekah and her tantrums. They can kill an army.

Kol's head suddenly snapped back to the mansion hearing a scream. Gosh Nik could have at least compelled her to be quiet. He didn't understand why his brother had to have this girl's blood in particular. Kol was sure Elijah had put some blood bags in the fridge just in case. But blood was always better from the vein.

Kol was brought from his thoughts when he swiftly looked at Bonnie afraid that she had heard the scream. But Bonnie was staring at a yellow flower at the ground and Kol laughed to himself at his foolishness. He had almost forgot she was human.

He then became very aware of the blood pumping throughout her body. His eyes clouded with hunger and black veins appeared under his eyes. Kol quickly looked away so Bonnie wouldn't see what his face was transforming to.

Get a hold of yourself Kol. You're a thousand years old, you have perfect control, he thought to himself.

But why should he have control? If this were any other situation he would have drained the human girl by now. After all, he didn't necessarily tell Nik he wouldn't feed from Bonnie. Nik just told him not to negotiate. But he followed through with his brother's plan, so there wasn't anything stopping him. And he would compel her to forget, which was the deal he had made with his siblings. Kol would be do nothing wrong. Except for maybe upsetting Rebekah, but she didn't have to know now did she?

After mentally agreeing what he was going to feed from Bonnie, she turned around and gave him a smile.

"Your home is beautiful," she said.

"You're beautiful," he blurted out before he could stop himself. He mentally slapped himself but kept his flirty demeanor and winked at Bonnie. She blushed nonetheless.

This was it. Kol flashed in front of Bonnie and she jumped back in surprise.

"How did—?" she said looking at Kol and the place he was standing in a moment before.

Kol smirked and looked into Bonnie's eyes. "Stay still and don't scream," he said compelling her, his eyes dilating as he did.

Bonnie looked confused, and fear started sinking in as he said to not scream.

Kol grabbed Bonnie by her arms, pulling her close. He went to pull her neck close to his mouth when she suddenly shoved him away.

He was surprised momentarily, wondering why his compulsion didn't work. Kol grabbed her again and compelled her saying the same thing once again.

But instead of her compiling, she slapped him right across the face instead. Kol's head snapped to the right, receiving Bonnie's slap. He most definitely did not see that coming.

He looked back at her angrily. How dare she slap an Original?

Kol then heard Rebekah's shouts from the mansion.

"Nik! Kol! I'm going to kill you!"


Meanwhile…


Caroline screamed again as loud as possible once she ran out of breath the first round.

Klaus quickly covered her mouth with his hand muffling her sounds. She reacted by biting into his palm as hard as she could.

He grabbed Caroline, with his hands on either side of his face pulling her close.

"Stop screaming and don't move," he compelled again. But Caroline continued to thrash his grasp. Caroline managed to get free and scrambled to the other side of the room.

This was not part of Klaus' plan at all. He was simply going to get a taste of her blood and then compel her to forget. Only his compulsion wasn't working. Why wasn't his compulsion working?

He stepped towards Caroline, like a predator stalks his prey.

"No!" Caroline shouted, pointing at him. "Do not move any closer!"

Klaus smirked and raised his eyebrow challenging her. He took one more step, gouging her reaction.

"I said don't move any closer!"

Ignoring her shouts, Klaus took another slow step to her. "What will you do to stop me?"

Caroline glared at him trying to show she wasn't afraid, despite her shaking hands at her sides.

Klaus took a few more steps towards her and Caroline swiftly grabbed the wooden chair next to her and lifted it in the air— smashing it right on top of Klaus' head. He barely flinched and stood their surprised by her action.

Klaus glared at Caroline. How dare she smash a chair on an Original? The Original Hybrid to be precise.

"I told you not to come closer," Caroline whimpered knowing her attack had been pointless.

Klaus flashed in front of Caroline. Someone who pulled a stunt like that on him would have been dead by now, their heart ripped out of them. But instead, he stood there watching the human girl before him.

"What—What are you?" Caroline finally muttered staring at Klaus is disbelief.

"I'm the Original Hybrid love," Klaus smirked, showering in the power of the title.

Instead of Caroline cowering in free after hearing Klaus say those two words, she only looked back at him in confusion. Of course, as a human, Caroline didn't know the immense fear she should be feeling knowing the Original Hybrid— the most powerful and oldest being to walk the Earth— was standing right in front of her.

"Nik! Kol! I'm going to kill you!" Rebekah's shouts echoed through the house and Klaus groaned in annoyance.

Ah fuck, he thought.


Rebekah flashed inside the house shouting for her brothers. She didn't know if she was too late. Bonnie and Caroline could be dead by now. She couldn't believe her brothers.

They had made a deal. No killing. Rebekah and specifically told them not to hurt them. Why? Why must they constantly ruin everything she was working hard to do? Why couldn't they just let her live a normal life?

Because she wasn't normal, she answered to herself. She was a vampire. An Original Vampire who would never be normal no matter how hard she tried. And that was the tragedy.

"Nik! Kol! I'm going to kill you!" she shouted again. She sped to every corner of the house, looking for them. She finally heard a human heart, rapidly breathing.

Rebekah sighed in relief. They're still alive. She smelled Nik's cologne from a room and she kicked it open, letting the door fall to the ground off its hinges. Caroline was cowering in a corner with Nik standing over her.

"Dramatic entrance don't you think sister?" Klaus said.

Rebekah stood there appalled. Not even an apology. Well what was she thinking? Nik didn't apologize.

"We had a deal!" she thundered. "Honestly, I expect that much from Kol, but you? I thought we were trying to hide from Mikael? You think this is laying low?" she asked, waving her hand at Caroline who was confused as ever. "It's like you're waving a red flag for him!"

Klaus instantly glared. "Watch how you talk to me Rebekah."

"Or what? Huh? You're going to dagger me? Honestly I've heard it all Nik. Some brother you are," she snapped, not thinking as she spoke.

Before he could react, Kol came walking in with a frightened Bonnie glued to his side.

"Well hello sister, I was just showing your dear friend Bonnie around the mansion."

"Shut it Kol, you both are unbelievable. I'll have you know I called Elijah and he's on his way. No need for me to give you a speech, clearly all I say goes in one ear and comes out the next."

Rebekah mumbled some incoherent words under her breath and started shouting again at her brothers while throwing a vase at Kol while he expertly dodged it.

Tantrums. He's used to them by now.

"Just compel them to forget already and send them on their way home. I guess we'll work on our project at The Grill or something since I can't trust them with you."

"Yeah, about that…" Kol began.

Rebekah raised her brow at her brother.

"They can't be compelled," Klaus said interrupting his brother.

"What do you mean they can't be compelled?!" Rebekah screeched.

"Vervain…" Kol said quietly to himself. "Vervain!" he repeated louder. "They must be on vervain."

Caroline and Bonnie stood quietly while watching the exchange between the Mikaelsons. They had absolutely no idea what was going on. All Caroline knew was the seemingly hot older brother Klaus is some kind of demon straight from hell with fangs and creepy eyes. Also that he's the 'Original Hybrid', whatever that was supposed to mean…

Caroline gave Bonnie a quick look, and Bonnie nodded. They suddenly bolted to the doors. Klaus was too distracted by Rebekah too stop Caroline running passed him. Kol quickly flashed to the door, stopping them in their steps. They backed up against the wall, knowing there was no getting out of this place.

Kol stepped towards them. "You know I never did get you back for that slap Bonnie."

He jumped at her the second Rebekah shouted, "Don't!"

But before Kol could attack he was on the floor screaming and grabbing on to his head, along with Rebekah and Klaus. Caroline watched in shock as they fell to the floor. Bonnie glared at all of them, her hands still out in front of her from when she stuck them out to defend herself from Kol.

"We need to leave!" she said to Caroline.

Caroline nodded and ran out of the door following Bonnie. Before she left, she quickly snuck a glance at Klaus who was still screaming in pain and looking right at her. She shook off the feeling of guilt and left. Why should she be feeling guilt anyways? Caroline had nothing to feel guilty about.

Bonnie and Caroline ran through the woods as fast as they could and headed towards the road. Klaus had driven them so they had no choice but to escape by foot. Bonnie suddenly grabbed her phone and dialed her Gram's number. Caroline kept looking over her shoulder as she ran to see if they were following her.

She had no idea what had happened. How could they all fall to the floor while screaming in pain at the same time? A lot of her questions were unanswered. None of this could be possible. This type of stuff just doesn't exist. They weren't human.

"Grams!" Bonnie said as they ran through the woods and suddenly met the road. Her grandmother answered on the second ring. "We need you're help, you need to pick us up!" Bonnie shouted as they ran down the road.

"What's wrong," Shiela asked startled. She grabbed her keys, knowing full well what they were afraid of.

"You were right, the Mikaelsons are dangerous."

"I'm on my way."


"Bitch," Kol grumbled once his aneurism subsided.

"I thought you liked her," Klaus chuckled, rubbing his head as he stood up.

"Oh I still do, feisty little thing. Rebekah, you didn't tell me your friend was a witch."

Elijah suddenly appeared at the door in his suit (what a surprise). "What did you both do?" he asked.

"Hello to you to brother," Kol said.

"Caroline and Bonnie know about us thanks to Klaus and Kol…" she answered whilst glaring at her other brothers. Then she looked to Elijah dropping the bomb. "They got away, and they're not compelled. They're on vervain."

Elijah looked unfazed by the news then looked to Klaus. "And you let them get away?"

"Elijah I did not 'let them' get away. One of them is a witch. She gave us a hell of a aneurism. They probably didn't get far," Klaus answered. "I'll go after them."

"Me too!" Kol shouted and followed his brother.

"There is no way I'm letting you two get them, I'm coming!" Rebekah yelled and followed them as well.

Elijah sighed and also followed them knowing they were bound to start some more trouble.

Klaus sped through the woods following their scent as his siblings followed him. He was always better tracking. They ran through the woods until they met the road and Klaus halted.

"Their scent stops here."

"How is that possible?" Rebekah asked.

Klaus walked around and spotted skid marks on the road and smelt the gasoline. He growled under his breath.

"They got away."


A/N: Oooh they got away without compulsion! How do you think the Mikaelsons will solve this one (Klaus and Rebekah in particular)? And how do you think Bonnie will react knowing her Grams was right about her being a witch?

As always, tell me what you thought in the REVIEWS! Drop some predictions and I'll take some into consideration ;)
