Mystic Falls

(Damon POV)

"Elena? Why is this actually working and my way didn't work?"

"Because one way to reunite a family is to feel like a family. Something you should know. Stefan once told me you promised him an eternity of misery. You never meant that did you?" She asked, handing me a plate for breakfast.

"I only meant it once. So how are you coping with Klaus being in the same house as Jeremy and hoping he doesn't just kill him?"

"Well Stefan's there too you know. Stefan will protect him. Not to mention Elijah's there. If we can trust anyone, it's Elijah." I smiled at her. I remember trying to get him to help us kill Klaus and I remember him actually waking his family and teaming up with me against Klaus.

"Yeah, our favourite Original is there." And so is Katherine… I sat down at the table and she sat opposite me. Lily sat by me and across from her was Bonnie. I picked up my fork and knife and began to eat. This time I didn't feel even the slightest of revulsion having her sit by me.

(Klaus POV)

I was in the kitchen, watching Stefan cook. He said he'd been a respected chef once in his life. I would test his theory. Today Kol had decided the events, which to no surprise, he had added in three or two movies and baseball along with a few other activities.

"So Stef, what are you cooking?" I asked, watching as he tasted his food in the pot with a wooden spoon before adding in salt. "Are you cooking some sort of expensive breakfast dish?" He turned his head to the side, smiling at me sheepishly. I raised a brow, what the hell had he done?

"This is breakfast? I was cooking ratatouille..." He turned away immediately with the angry look on my face. I stood up immediately.

"Ratatouille?! This is breakfast, STEFAN. Just because you saw that damn movie earlier last week does not give you the right to cook it for breakfast!" I walked over to him and tried to take it from him but he smacked my hands away.

"I only wanted to impress you Nik! I'll cook something else too, I promise. Something more on the breakfast side of the block. I wanted to cook something fancy." I rolled my eyes at him before growling. I closed my eyes and after a minute, I opened them again.

"Fine, I'll eat it later but I'm taking them to Jack In The Box for breakfast. You can stay here. Maybe that will teach you to cook breakfast food at breakfast."

"Some people in the world don't eat breakfast food at breakfast Nik." I didn't react or say anything, preferring to just ignore him. I walked up the stairs to go wake up the children and get a move on with our day.

(Kol POV)

I stared at the bed above mine. My mind was racing with thoughts about how to get Nik to let me handle today all by myself. I heard him ask Elijah and Finn to watch a movie or two with him, and if I could get him to take today off, then he could watch them today. And I would be able to pull off whatever I wanted to do. Anything at all.

I heard the door open and looked over to see Nik come in. I smiled before getting out of bed and walking over to him, he looked at me and waited until I was close to him. The others were still sleeping.

"Niky? I was wondering if maybe you could take a break today. You've had to deal with watching us for a whole week and not to mention that meeting that Elijah forced you to go to, even when you told him you didn't want to go. I also bet that he's made a meeting for this Saturday as well. Don't worry about Tyler, Kai, or Jeremy. I'd be there, I'd be watching them and I know I don't always act mature but I can do this. I can do this for you. So will you or won't you take today off?" He had actually listened to me speak without once interrupting or moving. I had hope.

He grabbed my hand and led me out of the room and into his own room. He sat me on his bed before looking at me again. He crossed his arms over his chest. I did nothing wrong, so I had nothing to worry about.

"You ask me to let you be in charge of them and yourself today? You ask me to take off my supervision just because of a week and a meeting?" He waited for an answer, so I gave him one. I nodded my head.

"Yes I do, Nik. We don't always need your supervision. We're not five years old anymore." He scoffed at me before smiling.

"And do you recall where I was during that meeting?"

"At the church with the Faction leaders."

"And do you recall where you four were during that meeting?" …

"At the park."

"Then you have no problem recalling what you did at the park while I was gone and had decided that you could have a break. You went out into that park and played games with a vampire hunting crossbow. Not just you, but Tyler, Kai, and Jeremy too."

"It was Kai's idea." I defended, poorly the moment I said it.

"And the man who wants to take responsibility for all four now, didn't even think to speak up. All you cared about was that it'd be fun. You didn't think of the consequences. Give me one good reason why I should let you out of my sight on a week just two days later. And it better not be because you think I need a break." This was my defining moment. I thought hard, and fast.

"Because you want to spend time with our older siblings don't you? You wanted to watch a movie and you, Rebekah, Elijah, and Finn are all going to pick one. It might as well be considered family bonding time, but I won't be there. Because I'll be keeping them busy. You should stay here and do that with them. Finn goes to bed every single night at 8:00 to 9:00, no matter what. And we both know that won't be long enough for you. We both know it will do you and Finn some good to bond with each other since you have a lingering passion of hate for him, which I know because of how often you used to vent about him. Besides that, it'd be pleasing our parents. Mikael, Esther, and Tyler. It might even please Dahlia."

"And why should I want to please them?" He asked with his brows raised. I had him right where I wanted him. I smiled up at him.

"Because by doing so, you'd be pleasing yourself as well as them." He stared at me for a few minutes before turning around and walking toward the door. I stood up immediately. "What about my answer Nik?" I asked politely. He turned around and strode right in front of me. I smiled at him and he sighed.

"Fine, Kol. You can have your way. You've a better point about something than you ever have in your entire life, at least when it has come to trying to convince me about something." He lifted a finger. That meant there was a condition. "However, Kol, you would be taking on the responsibility for each of them, not just yourself. Are you ready for that?"

"Yes, I am."

"Well then, that means you know what your getting yourself into. If any of you misbehave, I will personally let Elijah handle it himself. Including you. Now the only condition I require from you for this idea of yours is that you leave Kai out of any plans you might be making for Saturday. I'll be with him. I've been talking to him, trying to get him past where Damon has him."

"Past what?"

"Damon has no idea on how to raise a kid and this one seems to have killed his entire family and his surviving sister doesn't want anything to do with him. So Damon and I have, I suppose you could say, stepped in place for him. That's how he's described the situation to me. He's a killer, like me."

"Except your worse, we all know you are."

"This isn't a battle of whose the worse person here Kol. Don't make it into that. The point is, leave Kai out of your plans. Do we have a deal?" He held out his hand to me to shake.

"I don't want Kai feeling left out, like we don't care if he plays with us or not."

"I don't really think he cares right now. All he wants-… I don't have to explain anything to your childish mind. Do we have a deal or not Kol?" I thought hard about it before begrudgingly taking his hand, shaking on it.

"Fine, we have a deal."

"This deal shall stand the entire week, whether or not you get in some type of trouble or not Kol." He took his hand away almost immediately. He walked back into the Bunk Bed room and I jumped for joy. I won! I got him to agree!...Except I'd given away one of my men… I felt horrible… and good at the same time.

(Jeremy POV)

We weren't eating breakfast. Instead we were waiting in the car for Kol and Klaus in the car. A few minutes later, Kol came out, sat in the driver's seat, and drove off, turning the radio on immediately. He smiled at us all.

"Hey guess what? Nik's not here today. I'm in charge. Cool right? If I'm in charge, you know fun is coming right up." He beamed before moving on, driving up to Jack In The Box and parking. We got out and headed inside before he ordered us food, whatever we wanted, and we sat down and when the food came I decided I had to ask him.

"Kol, what are you doing to get Klaus to let us watch three movies yesterday and now not even be here when he's supposed to be here?"

"What am I doing? Consider it magic."

"You making deals with him?"

"Maybe. I promised that if any of us misbehave that I could be punished for all by myself."

"Doesn't sound like something Klaus would normally say yes to. Come on Kol, you can tell me."

"I talked to him, I convinced him he needed a break."

"Really? Tell me how."

"Doesn't really work for anyone but Marcel, Tyler, me, or Rebekah really mate. Sorry."

"Well there's got to be something I can do too right?"

"Jeremy, what could you possibly want from my brother?"

"I don't know but to know how before you need to is always a good thing isn't it?"

"He'd refer himself to Damon first for anything." I sat back in my chair, bummed.

"So you have no advice for me?"

"Get him to like you." I blinked a few times.

"And how in the h-"

"world!"

"-would I do that?"

"Appeal to his better nature. Or you could do what Stefan does. Stroke his ego when the time is right and when he gets angry at you, either defend yourself or let him yell at you. Also you have to have a fun element to yourself. Like Stefan taught Nik how to add wine and blood together for an amazing result."

"I'm not a vampire and nor will I ever be." I replied, eating my food now. I'd given up on getting a real answer from him that I could actually use.

"Hey Jer, if you ever need anything from him, I could get it for you. Kol does things differently than me. And don't try to be like Stefan. He'd be confused about why you're doing it. It wouldn't get you anywhere." Tyler tried cheering me up.

"Why get something from him when you can get it yourself? I mean unless Damon and Klaus would be 'scary' if you took something when they said 'no'. Supposedly that's taboo. Just ask Joe." Kai added his bit to the conversation. I rolled my eyes. He smirked at me before eating his food.

When we were finished, Kol paid and took us to the car to go to the movies.

(Tyler POV)

We were at Davina's… Kol had no schedule, he was doing this on the fly. I walked up and sat down in the living room, listening to them talk. "Hi Davina."

"Hi Kol." She smiled at him. He beamed back at her.

"We were going to watch a movie, I wanted to know if you'd be interested in watching it too. I have the money for five tickets. Then you could choose one, then they could choose one. Besides Tyler, he's chose three already. All happened yesterday. I'll buy you something at the mall afterwards. So what do you say? Are you free? Today? All day? For Kol?" He gave her a smile and she sighed, smiling.

"I'd have to call Tim first." Kol fell off his chair then.

"Tim? What are you thinking about him for when you've got me?"

"He thinks I'm staying at home today. I'm going to tell him that plans have changed and that you'll bring me back home before tonight. You know Tim got a job? We own this place now but he has to work hard to pay the bills. I feel bad about being- not being able to help him. I can't find work."

"Sure Klaus could find something. Doesn't he tell New Orleans what to do? Not the law?"

"Daddy is the law of New Orleans Uncle Kol." I butted in. "I'm sure he wouldn't mind helping you earn money or something. He might even just give you the money." She shook her head.

"I don't want free bees Tyler. I want to have actually earned this place. I'm working on making drapes for the windows. Basically I'm hoping that by the end of the year that this house will be just like a home. With our own furniture, electronics, and stuff like that. Tim's got three jobs he's working on. However, if he can get… Kol what is that thing called about playing for people to see if your good at it?"

"An audition. Is he working for an audition for his violin killing moves?" She giggled before nodding her head.

"If he gets his audition and he's accepted, then he'll be able to work at home and sell albums of his music. He was called after sending in a tape of his music. I'm the one who encouraged him."

"I can-"

"Kol! Don't! I want to do this the right way. Not because I know some Original vampires who compel people to help me out. Can you understand that?" She asked, picking up the phone after dialling Tim's number.

"I just want to help! I didn't say I'd compel them. Nik would do it. Since this has to do with your living arrangements."

"Tim? Hey. My friends Kol and Tyler came over with two other friends and asked me if I wanted to hang out with them. I do and I thought I would call you before I left so you know where I'm at. Is that okay with you? Thank you Tim. I love you. I miss you too. Bye. Bye." She hung up and smiled at us. "Let's go." I smiled, high-fived Kol and Davina before heading out again.

(Jeremy POV)

We were now at the movies and Kol had bought us popcorn, hot dogs, nachos, practically the entire menu. Originals are filthy rich. We walked into the booth we were supposed to sit in and waited for the commercials to end.

"So how does Where Hope Grows, A Million Ways To Die In The West, and then Rango sound to you guys? And then we can do whatever you guys want! We don't have to be home until 5 PM. Dinner. It's only 7:30 AM. Perfect! Right?"

"Yeah, now be quiet."

"Finally! Baseball! I told you there was baseball in this movie!" Kol said smiling. Davina shushed him and he just beamed at her before going back to the movie.

"He threatened him? Can I rip his head off Davi?"

"No Kol, it's just a movie. Please stop talking, you can talk later." He sighed before smiling as the movie went on.

What surprised me was at the end, right before the credits, Kol stormed out of the room. I looked in astonishment as I heard the credits play. I looked back to watch again. When the credits were over, Davina stood up immediately too.

"I'm sorry. I have to go check on Kol. I don't think he's happy." She said, turning before leaving. Tyler and I got up and followed her. Kai sighed and followed along.

When we left I almost walked straight past Davina and Kol. I stopped and turned around. "Kol?" He was sitting there, arms crossed over his chest and a frown on his face. Was he… pouting? "Kol are you okay?" I asked.

"That was a totally curve balled ending. It made me believe he died when it was actually the other man. How is that fair? That movie and I have a love/hate relationship." I laughed but Davina shot a displeased look at me. "Well we still have to watch A Million Ways To Die In The West. And Rango." He looked at me, thinking.

"Oh yeah. I forgot about those movies." He got up and walked out, we followed him to the car before we got in and drove back to Davina's house.

"Thank you Kol. I'm happy you're okay." Davina kissed Kol's cheek and his face went from a smile to beaming, along with a few laughs.

"Me too Davina."

(Klaus POV)

"Marcellus!" I called, he was standing at the banister looking at the house. He smiled at me before standing straight. He waved at me and I vamped up beside him. "You know with all this family bonding I've been doing and the more that is to come, I've caught myself thinking." He looked at me.

"About what exactly?"

"The day you and I saw each other for a so called reunion that could have gone way better than it actually did." He sighed.

"Are you still sore about that? I've apologized a thousand times for the last two years."

"Not a thousand times Marcel. I'm not still sore about that. So don't worry about having to apologize anymore, and do realize you've apologized that many times because you still feel guilty about that. I could do something to fix that if you like?" He laughed nervously. He knew what I was implying.

"No thanks. Maybe next time." I smiled.

"Well then. On to other matters. The real reason I wanted to talk to you."

"Yeah, and what's that?" I stood up straight instead of leaning and turned directly to face him.

"It's about Finn and Kol. Last years reunion. Remember the meal? What I want to know..." I watched his face go from relaxed to nervous to cautious. "how did you catch them? Hm?"

"Catch them? Well you'd have to ask Hayley about Finn. I caught Kol hanging with Davina. They'd just got finished with something. He was putting her to bed. I knocked him out with a firm blow to the head. Not hard enough to actually hurt, just lose consciousness."

"However, you were involved with both were you not? Come on Marcel, I could ask you… or I could ask Finn and punish you for lying to my face. And of course yell at Hayley for not caring to tell me what happened. He was a witch out for blood and something tells me he tried to kill Hayley. I have reason to believe that Cami and Ty were both involved with the snatching of Finn Mikaelson."

"Okay we used Tyler as bait for Finn because we knew that Finn wanted to make you happy and helping Tyler would have gotten him exactly what he wanted and we took advantage. Cami was already involved with Finn. She was being sponsored by Finn to help you." I scoffed at him.

"So you're telling me I'm right? And why did you think it'd be a good idea to use Tyler as bait? Finn could have killed him. He put his life in danger and you didn't think to tell me about it? … OR more likely you didn't want to tell me." I looked at him, he looked directly away from me.

"Well if you wanted to know you should have asked. As I recall, you were more than happy to see them. The 'how' wasn't all that important to you." I quickly bent him over the banister before catching my temper. "I'm sorry okay." He was uncomfortable, squirming under my grasp. I let him up.

"Next time tell me when Tyler's putting his life in danger. I told you to watch him. I forgive you both. Next time won't be so nice."

"Yeah, I know. Next time I'll tell you. I promise."

"I hold my children to their promises Marcel. You know that?"

"I promise." He looked at me, he was rightfully scolded. I smiled gently at him before giving him a hug and then when he let go I gave him a kiss, just to let him know all was well.

"Well would you like to join my siblings and I with the movies?"

"I would like to join." He answered. I smiled, grabbed his hand and led him back to the living room where we had the movies.

"You can choose your own movie. We've already watched Elijah's. Next is Finn's, then mine. Followed by Beky's and then yours." I smiled at him.

(Kai POV)

We were at Davina's house as Kol set up the movies he'd took for us to watch. He had stole them from the store, or that's what I was guessing from his cautious looks over at us. "Am I doing this right?" Davina stood up and helped him and soon commercials came on the television as the movie began to play. "Thanks Davi."

"You're welcome Kol." Kol left and came back with bottles of whiskey.

"I bought these, I promise."

"Kol, I can't drink." His face fell like he'd been shot.

"What? Why? You used to be okay with it. Or was that only when I was human? You know, I can still get drunk, just not as easily."

"Kol I wish I could tell you, but I can't. Just take two for yourself." He frowned before sitting by her. He opened one before handing it over to Tyler, who handed it to Jeremy, who handed it to me. Then he opened a new one and handed it to Tyler, who handed it to Jeremy. He opened a third and gave it to Tyler. He opened one for himself before putting the rest of them on the table in front of us along with all of the popcorn and hot dogs he'd bought before we left the movie theatre.

Now the movie began. "OH! Wait, I might want to warn you all that this movie is rated R for strong crude and sexual content, language throughout, some violence and drug material. Now silence." Kol said, ending his sentence before the real movie began.

"Kol." Davina smiled before watching. I stared at them before watching the movie myself.

"This movie has too many credits. Aren't they supposed to be at the beginning?" I complained, but instead of whining about it, I stated it as a fact and a question.

"Well sometimes credits are useful for find the actors you want to watch." Davina replied.

"Why do they have sex if everyone can hear them?"

"Cool. 1800s hookers."

"You can't smile in a photo?" Tyler laughed.

"He'd be a good doctor." Kol laughed. Everyone began to laugh, besides me because I just smiled. Their mayor has been dead for three days.. I laughed a bit at that. Wolves. The others began to laugh every few minutes. Drink and horse. I love this movie already. I laughed at him falling off his horse before I myself reduced to laughter.

"That man is cruel. He reminds me of my daddy and I don't like that." Kol replied, glaring at the television. Kol covered Davina's eyes as a man's head was crushed by a huge block of ice. I found myself laughing at it. The others not so much. Then he removed his hand.

Kol gawked at Anna. Jeremy's eyes widened before they went back to normal. Oh yeah, he had a girlfriend named Anna didn't he? And that's exactly how I expect Klaus to start a fight. Someone bumps into him and then he shoots him, erupting into an all out bar fight. Then again, Damon was probably more likely to do that.

"Awkward." I smiled. Very awkward.

"I want a pot cookie." Kol said, smiling when Davina hit him. "I still do."

"Oh Kol! What is he doing?" Davina hid her face in Kol's shoulder as he grabbed someone's hat and… ew. Disgusting. A few minutes later Davina complained at the man slapping his wife. The laughter had all died down a bit ago during the movie.

"Don't worry, Davina, it's supposed to be funny but this part never is… and there's only thirty minutes left of the movie."

"The End? I was kind of expecting it to say 'Fin' since it's a western movie." Kol burst out laughing.

"Yes it should say Finn shouldn't it?" She smiled, shaking her head as the credits played. As music played, Davina grabbed Kol's hand and began to dance, he beamed at her, joining in. I watched the credits as Tyler cheered them on.

Jeremy on the other hand got up and found the movie Rango before taking a hot dog to eat and another beer. I snatched one myself, popping it open before beginning to drink. Tyler saw me do that and grabbed some popcorn, still watching them dance. I looked at the food and since I hadn't had any food during the movie, began to eat. At least enough for a snack. I didn't want to waste my appetite before lunch time. It was already 10. So we had two hours before Kol would even think about lunch. I chuckled to myself.

Jeremy rewound the movie and as we waited he opened the box to Rango and it was ready to watch, just pop it in and go. Kol snatched some popcorn and a hot dog before offering Davina a beer. She frowned.

"Kol, I've said no already."

"Fine, if you won't take this, then you owe me a game of baseball, virtual or otherwise… or you owe something to me."

"How about time for another movie?"

"I thought I had you all day?"

"You do." she laughed this time and he had a smile on his face.

(Klaus POV)

I had been left alone with Finn… I smiled. I didn't have any dirty deeds to do but that meant that I could talk to my brother privately. I scooted myself over to his side and he looked at me, smiling a nice smile. He was actually smiling at me like I would smile at Caroline but not in that way… I smiled at him before looking at the ground.

"Brother?" I coughed. "I mean, Finn?"

"You call me by my name? I suppose you really are bonding with me. I'm happy Niklaus. I… love you." He said before he repeated himself, more confident. "I love you Niklaus."

"I… love… you too. Finn, I love you too." I said, feeling the weirdness of those words on my tongue. "I was wondering if I could possibly ask you a question."

"I would be glad to answer your question. May it be advice or otherwise." 'I don't need advice from you.' I coughed before looking at him, getting direct eye contact.

"Finn, when you were captured by Hayley, was it?, what happened that night?" He smiled.

"Well I could tell you but aren't you rather in the mood for a movie? It's your turn to choose." I rolled my eyes at him and he frowned. I smiled nervously at him.

"Sorry Finn. I didn't mean to do that. I want to know. Want to go to my room or something? We could burn sage for a private conversation." I smiled at him, he smiled as his eyes slitted themselves.

"I have no intention of burning Sage, but I would like to go to your room for this conversation." I got up and went into my room, sitting on my chair as Finn sat across from me.

"I want all of the details. I don't want a half story, and make it interesting. This is after all the first time I've ever asked a story from you."

"I remember I had been scolded by Mother, I don't need to remind you why. I wanted to apologize or do something to renew your trust in me. So what I found was Tyler Lock-"

"Mikaelson. Tyler Mikaelson. Continue Finn."

"I found Tyler Mikaelson standing outside a store. I asked him his name, if it was Tyler Lockwood, and he corrected me, telling me his name was Tyler Mikaelson. Like you said just now. I saw him staring at an object in the window and I replied by asking him if I could help him. He said he needed $2,100, because he'd broken a bathtub of yours and he wanted to get a new one before you found out. I would have told you about him breaking it but I would also have given him the money for one. I gave him $3000. He was amazed I had that much money. I explained to him why I had such a huge amount of money. He walked off but a minute later, when he reached the curb, someone stole the money I'd given him. I went after the thief to give the money back to him and then I was dropped by Marcellus. He threw shackles on my wrists. I tried to free myself, but then Marcellus knocked me out cold. The next events I am quite sure you remember." I looked at him, contemplating what he'd just said, comparing what Marcellus' had said.

"So Camille was not there?"

"No, I'd been with Camille before and she excused herself a minute after the meal."

"What about Hayley?"

"I don't remember her."

"She's the one who stole the money. I found it in her dresser the next day after that. The one I'd interrogated you and Kol in? Also, I'm sorry for the treatment you received from me that day."

"Thank you for apologizing."

"So were you the only one who got hurt?" Marcel had lied to me about not being directly involved… Now I had to ask Tyler for his version. Then I could decide what to do about it. Marcellus had lied to me and I was determined he not get away with it.

"I was the only one who got hurt. I was not going to hurt one of them right after Mother was so disappointed in me."

"Thank you Finn. For talking to me. Now I have to go choose my movie for us to watch." I got up and walked out.

"It was a pleasure to talk to you Niklaus." He called after me.

(Kai POV)

"I already know where we're eating for lunch. I'll just order in during lunch hour because they just opened." Kol said, picking up the movie and putting it in the VCR/DVD player. I'm amazed she still has one. "Until then we can keep eating the popcorn and hot dogs. And drinking. I'll get us more from Domino's so don't worry." He sat down as the commercials came on.

"Are you insane Kol? We don't need more." Jeremy told him.

"Woah! There's a Rango Video Game? I have to have it!" Tyler beamed at the TV. I rolled my eyes, laughing. He spared a glance at me before going back to the TV. I saw Jeremy sit back down. He left? I smiled as the DVD went to the menu. Kol picked up the remote and smiled before pressing play and the movie began.

"He knows we're eating popcorn and stuff!" Tyler joked. Kol laughed and Jeremy hummed. "Hey Uncle Kol?"

"Call me Kol."

"Can you get Daddy to let us watch Jurassic Park movies? Like all of them?"

"I'll get him to let me in charge ag-… no more drinking. If we come home drunk, he'll never trust me again!" He grabbed all the beer and put it back up. "Here, eat these hot dogs. If we're lucky, the scent will be gone before we go home. We'll need a shower Davi."

"Fine Kol. You can do whatever you need to do to get rid of that smell or scent or whatever it is."

"Thanks, now enjoy the movie." He pressed play again. He'd stopped the movie before he went into 'clean up' rampage. "And, yes. I'll get him to let me in charge again and we can watch more movies. We've ran out of movies to watch at the theatre, or at least I have for now."

"It's the 9th I think and that means that in three days, Jurassic World will be coming out. Before that day comes, can we watch 1, 2, and 3?"

"I said yes. Even if I have to kidnap you. Now shut up." He rewound and played again.

"She froze. She's emotional."

"He's fighting with a kid. I would never do that." Kol replied, Davina giggled. I snorted at him. He's one to talk. Tyler giggled, idiot, at the lizard trying to spit, nothing coming out, and then wheezing.

"He's lying." Tyler said. "That's not right." We laughed when he stole his cigarette, ate it, and blew fire onto the reptiles face, burning it.

"He's being weird." Davina whispered.

"He killed the hawk! Whoohoo! Go Rango!" Kol shouted.

"How come the mayor is friends with a bad person? I can't call him a gangster because he's not that bad."

"Becau-"

"Shush Kol." Tyler sighed. At the point where Beans said the bank was empty, Tyler tried to cover his face and ears. I laughed at him. He's afraid of greed in front of people. After that he started watching again.

At one part Tyler leaned into Kol as people came chanting up out of the ground. I snickered at him before watching the movie. He did know it was just a movie right? "Hehe. He died."

"That's exactly the humour we're looking for in you Tyler." Kol praised, before being smacked by Davina playfully.

"Kol, don't turn him into one of those people."

"He's very clumsy, Rango."

"YES! Rattlesnake Jake!" Tyler and Jeremy both cheered for him.

"Excuse me, he's the bad guy." I replied. They smiled. I grabbed a hot dog and noticed that the food was almost all gone from the table.

"He's the bad guy." Tyler whispered as Rango himself put the pieces together. I nodded. He'd been the bad guy since the beginning. It was a lesser known cliché. Your closest friend is the bad guy. He called Rattlesnake Jake to Dirt Town, which by the way, is a stupid name.

"He's the bad guy alright but see that? That is what you get when you call in Nik to do a job, so be careful what you wish for mates." Kol said, pointing at the TV screen, laughing. Jake had just threatened the turtle mayor guy.

"HA! Told you Jake was a hero!" Tyler laughed at me, I only rolled my eyes in reply. Stupid kid. "That was awesome!" He shouted.

"Now it's time to order food." Kol said, picking up the phone, dialling a number and ordering a small pizza, a sandwich, and a root beer before he handed the phone over to Davina to order. We all ordered our own thing and went into detail together of what we should do next.

(Klaus POV)

After the movie was over and everyone was taking another break, I grabbed Marcellus and walked into my room. Where I sat him down on my bed. "Finn tells me you were the one who cuffed him. You told me that it was Hayley. Did you not?"

"Well you didn't ask. You already said that I did."

"You IMPLIED you did not Marcellus! Are you going to give me that 'don't ask, don't tell' theory again?" I demanded.

"I… um. Why does this even matter all of a sudden?"

"This would be the tenth time you've gone behind my back, and I'm beginning to think that you might believe that it is okay to do so whenever you please. Tell me I'm wrong."

"NO! That's not at all what I believe Dad! I know there are consequences for that!"

"Then why do you do it over and over again? Explain that."

"I'm not helping myself am I? And I won't be helping myself no matter what I say."

"I know you did it for good intentions son. But sometimes you get in trouble anyway."

"You were so busy with trying to kill Esther, Mikael, and Finn. How could I have told you. You asked me to watch him and I did. I just wasn't any good at it because it was a time of danger and I love helping you."

"You could have left Tyler out of it. You are 200 something years old. More or less… Now I wonder what I'm supposed to do about this, about you and Tyler going behind my back. That is his fifth time."

"You could wait until Tyler gets home to decide." I nodded, a very good idea.

"Very well, it's time to watch Rebekah's movie. Let's go back downstairs Marcellus." I helped him up and led him back into the room with my siblings.

(Kol POV)

"So now that we have pizza, what should we do now? What should we watch now? Maybe two movies I believe you'd be interested in Tyler?"

"What are they?" He asked, intrigued as he bit into his long slice of drooping cheese pizza. We'd all ordered our own food, one of each… besides Davina, Jeremy, and Kai. Only Tyler and I had a small pizza, a sandwich, a dessert, and a drink.

"You liked Club Life? Watch Brick Mansions. It's cool. And Edge Of Tomorrow is also cool. This movie has this thing called an alpha and an omega. The omega is some huge blue thing but the alpha, man. Have you ever played Twilight Princess from the Zelda games?"

"Yeah, like 56 times."

"Well those alphas are like those Shadow Beast, you know, the one you have to fight to open a new portal to teleport to?"

"Yeah, I know them."

"Oh, we could watch Alpha And Omega. You know the one about wolves?" Jeremy called.

"Hey! Leave Tyler alone Jeremy. Well that's what the Alphas look like. The smaller ones look like those small black creatures that take only one wolf bite to kill and are found in the castle the first time you go there." Ty hummed.

"Which one first? I changed my mind about the Jurassic movies, we should watch them all on the same day." He smiled at me. I smiled back.

"Brilliant. You should go bathe before we pick a movie. Wash everything Ty, we can't leave it up to chance that Nik find we were drinking. He'd kill me and then we wouldn't be able to do that. He might even have Marcel watch us instead." He jumped up immediately and went to bathe.

"Jeremy should too. I have two showers. I think you all should take four showers just in case, and keep using cologne."

"Ooh, Davina." I beamed at her and she laughed. I nodded. She smiled and then got back to eating her sandwich. She'd ordered a sandwich only, I'd complained and she'd told me it was her who was going to eat it and if I wanted more, I could have more. I'd given up on trying to get her to eat more.

When Tyler and Jeremy got back, Kai and I went and then we picked Brick Mansions. Tyler said he wanted to leave the best for last. So we were going to do just that. I picked up the movie and put it in since the movie was a DVD anyway and was ready to go already.

We watched the commercials in silence before the menu came up. I clicked play and the movie began. Tyler, as I knew he would, was at the edge of his seat in a few minutes after beginning scene. I smiled to myself. I knew my nephews so well.

Davina got up a minute later, "I'll be right back. I was looking up how to… you know and I found a cure for one of them." She got up and walked into the kitchen before she came back with slices of bread and pieces of cheese, garlic, and onion. Ewww. I rolled my eyes. It's for the best. I took a sandwich and began to eat mine, the others did too with a little begging from me. "I'll cook you an exotic meal after this movie. It will also have onion and garlic." She handed us two cups. Coffee and water. I smiled. I love my friends. I picked up my piece of sour gum and mint gum. She'd dropped eight of them on the table. I put them both in my mouth, though I would do no blowing. I don't like sticky bubbles.

"You're right Kol. It is kind of like Club Life."

"Thank you." I watched the people storm into the building, Leno was in danger.

"Kol, you've got to teach me parkour."

"Well you're a hybrid so you should do just fine on your own." I replied. I mean it was true. He was a hybrid so his hands could get a better grip without actually being taught to do so.

"Oh woah, so much death." Tyler looked at me. I shrugged in response.

"Their gangsters, what are ya gonna do?" I joked.

"Cops are mean."

"As compared to Nik?" Tyler coughed before shutting up. The movie was awesome already. As was today. I really do hope I get another chance at this. Tyler laughed a bit later in the movie, the girls were fighting. Leno's girl and Tremaine's girl.

"Chick fight."

"I place my bets on the white woman." I took a ten out of my pocket.

"No one wins. Give me a twenty." Davina held out her hand before shaking her head. "Why did you place a bet Kol?"

"Fun. Here. Ty has no money." He didn't need money, Klaus always bought him everything he asked for… eventually.

"This is an action movie isn't it?" Jer asked, picking up his last slice of pizza. I had already finished my sandwich and pizza a bit ago. Davina had gotten us food to eat that would get rid of the alcohol scent from us but we still needed to brush our teeth, that helped a lot.

"See? Doing things on the fly can actually get you somewhere." Tyler pointed at the screen.

"I suppose Marcel was expecting to do to Klaus what's being done to that man?" Tyler asked.

"How did you hear about that?" I asked. I don't remember Tyler being involved with that.

"… I was there." He replied, sheepishly.

"How'd it go?"

"Horrible!" When the credits played, Tyler complained. "Why didn't they kill the bad guy? You always kill the bad guy."

"Well Tyler, I'm proud to know that Daddy's lessons are beginning to drill into your brain. You'll be a great hybrid one day. Not that you aren't already one." Davina left after I said that, back to the kitchen.

"You guys take another shower, I'll fix some food and I'll go to the store and Kol will go to the store and get toothbrushes and toothpaste. Here's a list Kol." I was handed a slip of paper. "I found some instructions online and it said you needed that." I nodded and left, getting the list of items before vamping back over to her house.

(Tyler POV)

It was now 2 PM. We'd just finished brushing our teeth, using toothpaste and mouth wash, and showering the second time. Kol had said we'd need to go for a swim to make it sensible that we'd shower. I agreed. The only way to fool Klaus was too actually do as you told him you did. Or so I think, that's what Kol's insinuating.

"Here, a sandwich." Davina handed out sandwiches and sides, all with more onion and garlic. "Last time, I swear. I'm trying hard for you guys. Probably for something I shouldn't be doing but it's okay right? Kol?"

"Yes, the more likely we can get away with drinking the better. Now we can watch Edge Of Tomorrow." He got up, took out the other DVD and put in the one he held in his hand. We watched the commercials before the menu popped up.

"To go with the sandwiches, sour cream and onion chips, but don't eat all of them. Their my favourite."

"Guys, when this movie is over, we're going to have to go swimming. If we want to or not. Davi, tell me you have a pool. Please?"

"I live in an apartment. I have one around somewhere." He nodded.

"Perfect, then only make sure to take little bites of the rest of the onion and garlic food because we've been taste testing around NOLA. Perfect excuse, and not to mention he'd expect me to do something like that anyway." He beamed at his plan. I smiled too, if Kol was confident, it'd work. Right? Then Kol pressed Play and the movie began.

"He cheated. Did you see that? But now we're getting into the action. Tyler, see if you can spot the Shadow Beasts and parasites." I nodded as my reply before the cadet or whatever he was walked up.

"Fuck you." I complained at the man, before I realized he couldn't hear me. I laughed at myself, hoping the action would start soon. "I like what he says about gambling." A few minutes later I saw something, or – no! "It's one of those Shadow Beast Kol. It's an Alpha."

"Yep, good job. Now wait till the small ones appear. Can't wait for you to see the Omega."

"Omega?" And there we are, the movie begins. He died and it reset. Later we gave a few laughs, though very weak. 'Ten minutes and then I'm killing you.' What a very nice thing to say. I noticed later on when he was in the building the Omega was in, that I was beginning to dislike this movie.

"I've finally placed his voice!" I was watching the general open the safe. "He talks like Alastor Moody." Kol high-fived me.

"That is because he's the same person. Good job using your observation skills Ty." I smiled, proud of myself. "Ooh, I like her." He smiled at everyone, he was talking about Rita, The Angel Of Verdun, the blonde girl. He'd just got stabbed in the leg by her with the device.

"Damn, he just lost it." I complained. Now how was he going to win?

"Man, Alphas are fast."

"Almost fast as you and me." They all died… but then he woke up in the plane. So... he reset the day? By the credits I told myself that I had loved this movie. I thought a major was cool. That's what Cage is.

"So now we have an hour to swim and get showered. If we do this quickly, we can watch an extra about Edge Of Tomorrow, I'm going now." Kol said, going immediately. "We've not ate in the last 30 minutes so you guys should be fine."

(Jeremy POV)

We were in the water now, swimming. I was having fun but I knew that Kol was, for once, keeping us on a time budget. I understood though. I didn't like having Klaus near me if I didn't need him to. I didn't hate him, I just didn't trust him.

"Hey Jeremy! Watch this!" Tyler jumped in and made a splash, sending me to the other side. I chuckled before telling him to do it again. I swam to the centre of the pool and he jumped in again. I went floating to the opposite end than before.

"Watch how long I can hold my breath!" Kol ducked and I watched him. When I was thinking he was taking too long coming back up, he shot out of the water like a bullet from a gun. "How was that?"

"Astonishing." Tyler complimented.

"As an Original, you could do better." Kai said, making fun of him. I splashed Kai and he threw water right back at me. I splashed Kol, who splashed Tyler.

"Water fight!" Tyler splashed all of us before ducking under the water.

"Cheater!" I ducked in after him and grabbed his leg, dragging him under with me. He struggled but not too much. I let him go and swam to the surface, taking a deep breath. My nose hurt but I'd be okay with it.

I saw Davina come out and sit on one of the lounge chairs. "Hey, I've just put your clothes in the washer, and in 30 minutes, I'll put them in the dryer."

"No! That's an hour Davina. We don't have an hour. Make it 20 minutes each." She nodded before dipping her feet in. But I knew she wasn't getting in because she was wearing a dress. I got out and sat down with my legs in the water, I was done swimming. Kol looked at me and got out himself.

"HEY! Don't leave!" Tyler called, shocked Kol had left him in the water.

"Well I and Jeremy are going to go shower. You guys can go next and then we'll watch the video." Kol said, grabbing his towel before walking back into the apartment. I saw Davina staring at Kol as he left.

(Kai POV)

We had just finished showering and now we were waiting for our clothes to be done drying. So we were sitting on the floor in towels. Still at Davina's apartment. I chuckled. I wonder what Tim would think if he saw us like this. I smirked before seeing Kol turn a video on. The funniest thing about the movie though was that there was a jumpscare and it got Tyler, Jeremy, and Davina.

"Okay that was short. I want to know what that song is. This is not the end. From Edge Of Tomorrow." Davina brought us our clothes as Kol put the discs away. "So we have like 20 minutes to go home. Which is enough time to clean up the apartment. I suggest running while you do so. That means only Jeremy and Kai. You two are human, but don't run too fast." I rolled my eyes and picked up the trash on the table… before I asked myself why I'm complying to his demand. I looked at him. "Please? Do it for Jurassic Park." He chuckled before sitting on the couch and putting the trash together in clumps. I did as he asked, just like he said.

When the apartment was clean we had only ten minutes to make it back before 5. So Kol put us in the car before speeding off. At one point, he stopped speeding and went the speed limit. Good job you idiot. We'd said goodbye to Davina while we were cleaning.

(Klaus POV)

I watched them come in, a minute before 5. "Cutting it rather close aren't we Kol? How did it go?" I asked, walking downstairs to greet them. I found a mix of scents on them. "What have you been doing?"

"Taste testing, running around, swimming, and watched Where Hope Grows, which I might say is rather a good movie even if it does have a horrible ending." He smiled at me. I smiled back before locking my eyes on Tyler.

"Very well then, Dinner is already waiting for you. Come." That was an order. I walked through the house to the Dining Room. They sat down and waited for us to begin. I sat down next to Tyler and Marcel.

When everyone was sitting and everyone had a plate, we prayed for the food before digging in. We had fish, and steak with fries. I'd asked for the meal. Gen was all too happy to give me what I wanted, one of the reasons I loved her.

As we all talked about our days, I watched Tyler from the corner of my eye, I still had to ask him his version before I decided what to do with Marcel and Tyler. Marcel was nervous because he knew judgement was coming. I did not blame him, I was only happy that he was still acting nervous albeit licking his lips more than necessary.

When Tyler, Marcel, and I were done with our food I tapped them both on their knees under the table. I got up and walked out, they followed me. I walked into my office for privacy and sat down, they sat down across from me, with encouragement from me.

"So Tyler, I was wondering if you remembered the night you captured Finn Mikaelson while out window browsing."

"Yeah, why? I didn't capture him, Hayley did."

"And how else would you know something like that? I want Hayley in here too then. Stay here." I got up and went back into the dining room to see that Hayley was also done with her food. I smiled at her. "Hayley, mind if I have a word?" She looked up at me before cleaning her dish. Then she walked over to me and stood there, crossing her arms.

"I don't mind having a word Klaus." I kissed her and then led her into my office as well, drawing up a chair for her. "Is there a reason they're in here too Klaus?"

"Oh, I'm glad you asked. Yes, of course. Well you see, all of you were involved with the capture of my raging lunatic brother Finn Mikaelson. I have just recently learned of how this came about and am now wondering on how to punish all of you. Any ideas?"

(Kol POV)

We had just walked into the living room, to watch TV. I didn't know what to watch though so I flipped through the channels. Kai just began to meditate again, though I knew this would be his last time doing so. He was getting more and more aggravated with that.

I found a game of baseball but knew that I wouldn't get away with watching it since it was now 5:30. So I kept flipping through the channels. I found football, but that was off limits too. I rolled over, groaning.

"Kol, what's wrong? Can you not find anything on the television to watch?" asked Elijah. I nodded. He walked over to the TV and pressed a button and the screen changed outputs and a Netflix and Hulu option came up. "Niklaus has just installed this little contraption. I'm sure you could find something now. Anything that comes to mind will do well." He smiled at me and I beamed at him.

"I love you Elijah."

"I love you too Kol. Now if you'll excuse me." He walked out of the room and up to his own where I knew Katerina was waiting for him. I got up and pressed the button and it went back to cable. I put the channel guide on and watched it for a minute before realizing that World Of Gumball was coming on.

"You guys want to watch this show?"

"Sure and then we can watch something from both Hulu or Netflix." Jeremy answered.

"Just as long as you stop changing the channels all the time and pick one." Kai answered.

The Law episode came on. I watched as they got ice cream. I kept watching as the ice cream truck went by. How does one get a ticket for jay walking? Hehe. Cops? Cool? Hehe. They were arrested. Haha! I love cops! Awesome! I want a cop friend! A tasaer? I want one of those. Haha! Help police! He bumped the guy and then shrugged it off. I love this show. I so have to do that! Oh. They are so in trouble! Poor cop… Ha ha make shift cop car!

"I want more!" I yelled at the TV.

"Those episodes always come in twos Kol." Jeremy looked at me. "Don't yell at the TV." I waited for the next episode. Then it'd be 6:00.

"I want to go to Wendy's"

"Kol, don't fall for the commercials, they are meant to make you want something."

"Or not want something. You know, like cigarettes?" Kai put in his own cents.

"Fine. Oh! Another one! Haha Pillow fights." Hehe. She has an adorable sad face. I like it when she's sad. Oh wow, the paper girl's amazing. She's hungry. You should never hold in a sneeze. She's never a horrible nurse. Alternative medicine. He's hideous. So many needles! He killed them! He's allergic to stupidity. Best show ever. This is getting annoying. I wonder if Nik would give me a baby panda…

It's over. "Wanna watch King Of The Hill?" I looked at them. However my question was answered by someone else.

"No Kol, why don't you go look at what's on TV now?" Finn changed the channel to the guide channel.

"The Simpsons?"

"No." Finn shook his head. I rolled my eyes.

"Who said your in charge of us? Hm?"

"I can go get Niklaus if you like Kol." I thought about it before shaking my head. Nik would agree with him. No Simpsons.

"Then what do you suggest?" I asked as I waited for the TV to give options that were. There was nothing good. "Please?"

"No, how about that one? Nickelodeon?"

"Pfft. No." I pressed the button Elijah had and tried to think of something to watch.

"Are there any past cartoons you remember watching and liking?"

"How about Total Drama Island thingy? I used to watch that in Nik's room, and he was there while I watched it sometimes."

"That sounds okay then. You can watch that. And if not, then at least you have a place to start."

"Finn?"

"Sage, I'm here." Finn walked up the stairs and went into his room with his girlfriend. I sighed.

"Wanna watch Simpsons or Family Guy or American Dad?"

"No thanks, I don't want to piss off any Originals."

"How about South Park?"

"No thanks. When's Tyler coming back anyway?" I looked around before noticing that he was right. I listened out for him but all I could hear, that wasn't supposed to be in this house, was crying. I got up and walked away from them to follow the sound before catching Ty's scent. I vamped up to his scent, following it to Nik's office. I reached for the door knob before I realized that Tyler had probably got in trouble for something because I could smell Marcel, Tyler, and Nik in there. And two of them were crying or whimpering.

I knocked on the door. "Come in Kol." I opened the door, poking my head in first. They were both standing in a corner. "Come in Kol." I walked inside and looked around at both of them while I sat down in front of his desk.

"Nik? Can we have Tyler back? And maybe Marcel too?"

"In three more minutes for Marcel. Five minutes for Tyler. I've just finished punishing them for lying to me. Hayley is locked in her room. Would you kindly go let her out of her room now? Her punishment is over now." I stared at him. What punishment? "Do you remember the day you and Finn were captured and taken to this house?"

"Yes… but what does that have to do with them?" He sat up straight, turning himself to face me directly.

"Like I said, Marcellus lied to me. About not being involved with Finn's capture. Tyler as well but he also voluntarily put his life in danger, thus he's in more trouble with me because of that. However I suppose they've both done damage. Marcel let him, he knew better. Of course, that's not your business."

"Okay." This was getting awkward. "Well can I have them now?"

"Go free Hayley." He threw me a key, I caught it. I stood, looked at him and he nodded for me to do as he said. I walked over to Hayley's door and unlocked the door for her.

"You're allowed out now." She opened her door, smiling.

"Finally. Hi Kol." She smiled at me and I waved at her before going back to Nik's office room. Marcel was calm, sitting in one of the chairs as Tyler still stood in the corner.

"Oh come on Nik! Tyler's needed downstairs, we're running out of time for today. You know that." He looked at me.

"Marcel, go downstairs with Uncle Kol. You can watch TV with them. Tyler still needs a minute." I glared at him before giving in. I led Marcel downstairs and into the living room. I sat down and then I saw Tyler come in, a sombre look on his face. I frowned.

"Sorry about Nik. He can be really mean when he wants to."

"I told you he'd find out eventually." Marcel said, sitting away from Tyler, who only frowned harder. I glared at Marcel.

"Get over it Marcellus. It's time to have more fun. That will help you get over whatever happened in there. We're watching Total Drama Island. You interested?" Tyler nodded, sighing. I turned on the episode and a few minutes later, the TV had his attention. As well as Marcel's.

"Besides, it's not like you two don't know that Daddy Klaus won't like it if you two throw a tantrum. Marcel." They groaned before rolling their eyes. "I love the theme song. I thought his name was Chris Rock."

"Chris Rock is a comedian Kol. Camp Wawanakwa, is that what the sign says?"

"Yeah Tyler, that's what it says."

There was Beth, DJ, Gwen, Jeff, Lindsey, Heather, Duncan, Tyler, Harold, Trent, Bridgette, Noah, Leshawna, Sadie, Katie, Ezekiel, Cody, Eva, Owen, Courtney, Justin, and Izzy. I could have sworn Justin's name was Alexander… Izzy was my favourite character.

The teams were Screaming Gophers and Killer Bass. He just cursed! HA! In Finn's face! I beamed at my win. "Hey! This is from 2007, when I was in Junior High." Tyler commented, looking at his phone. I looked too.

"Cool. Who wants Starbucks! It's on me." I looked over as I saw the show continue. I sat back down and Tyler followed me. "By the way, I don't think this Tyler shows a good you. I bet you could do all of these stunts and not blink once."

"Yeah, I would. I'll give you three guesses why. This show aired between my 8th and 9th grades. So I would have been 13."

"I can't imagine a 13 year old Tyler Mikaelson."

"Because you weren't there Kol."

"Touché. Okay so Ezekiel lost first. Because he said boys were better than girls."

"Guys can we play a game now?" Jeremy asked. I nodded. It was sadly 7:15 PM already.

(Tyler POV)

We had like an hour and forty five minutes to play a game. So we looked for a game to play, and I finally decided we could just play a game of Sonic Dash, because that game can end whenever, and later they could choose their own game for us to play because I don't think we could concentrate for long on something since we'd been watching movie after movie today, though I loved all of those movies.

I brought up the idea and they agreed so we rolled dice to see who went first. Kol got a 10, I got a 7, Jeremy got a 9, and Kai got an 8. So the results were Kol, Jeremy, Kai, and then me. I was okay with those results.

I watched as Kol took his turn running the field of Sonic Dash. He got a score of 28,543. So now Jeremy was going. He got a score of 27,101. Kai got a score of 67,992. I took the game and took my turn. This would be round one of four. My score was 122,270. Which was amazing because I was worried that being in last place to go would make me lose immediately.

Round two's game was Candy Crush Saga, Kol had suggested it. So since I'd gotten the highest score, I went first. My score was, that I died on starting all the way from stage one, 3780 which made my score 126,050. Kai got a score of 25840 which brought his total up to 93,832. I was still in first place. Kol went next and his result was 52380 which brought his points to 80,923. Jeremy's score came to 20280 so he had 47,381. Jeremy was losing big time.

1st place was me, 2nd went to Kai, 3rd went to Kol, and Jeremy was in 4th place. Kai was the next one to offer a game. He'd chosen One Word 4 Pics. I thought it was an interesting pick. This time, since Jeremy was in last place, he went first. His score was 2,700. He'd given up, that was how this was going to happen. Jer had a score 50,081. Kol went next and got 1,500 so his points were 82,423. Kai went next getting 900 points. That meant he had 94,732. Now it was my turn. I didn't feel like playing but I had to keep my 1st place going. I got a score of 900 as well. So I had 126,950.

So now all we needed was for Jeremy to pick a game and then we had to get ready for bed. I was beginning to feel tired anyway. Jer chose a bubble game and that we did just like we did for Candy Crush. Except that we add up all the points we got from the levels and that meant it was kind of a gamble and kind of an all or nothing/bonus round. We rolled to go again. Kol rolled an 8, Kai rolled a 4, I rolled a 9, and Jeremy rolled a 7. So I was going first, followed by Kol, followed by Jeremy, and finally Kai.

The ending result was that I'd won first place, Kol won second, and Kai won third place. Jer made a joke out of himself losing. "I should have known I shouldn't have gone against the triple K team." I looked at him, wondering what he meant, about to ask him when I heard Daddy's voice.

"Children, it's time to get ready for bed. Anything you need before bed?"

"I'm thirsty." I said, getting up and going to the bathroom. I washed for the final time that day before finding a bottle of blood in Daddy's hand. I sighed and just let him do as he pleased. I didn't want more punishment.

(Kol POV)

I rolled over in my bunk. This time I was on the third top bunk out of four. I watched as Nik kissed us all good night, and when he reached me, I kissed him back. I was tired but I had had a lot of fun today. Jeremy or Kai were to plan tomorrow. I know they are.

"Nik?" I asked as he finished his routine of asking us if we needed anything for the last time, a kiss, and a wish good night.

"Yes Kol?" He whispered, Jeremy was already asleep underneath my bunk bed, he'd gotten the bottom bunk.

"I love you Niky." I closed my eyes and felt another kiss to my forehead as he smiled back at me.

"I love you too Kol. Good night, and sweet dreams." He whispered and turned away, walking out toward the door, before he turned off the lamp, and closed the door behind him. I smiled. I loved this day and I loved being in charge. Not to mention I had the possibility of doing this again. I would pull out one of those days on the 12th. Jurassic Park day. I rolled onto my side, away from the door before I fell asleep myself, with my head on my cold pillow and under my warm covers.

(Klaus POV)

Well that was the kids in bed. I was laying on my couch downstairs again. I was staring at the ceiling as Stefan kept trying to start a conversation and then dropping the subject just to play a song, hoping I'd sing it for him. I wouldn't.

"Niklaus, if you are tired you should maybe go to your bed before you fall asleep." Elijah said, sitting across from me on the love seat, Katerina at his side. I looked over at him before looking back up. I was bored. That was all. I wanted to fight Katerina but I knew Elijah would disapprove and take her upstairs like he usually does. I had knocked up that crazy experience to a nightmare or a hallucination. I couldn't remember if I was drunk or not so I can get away with it. I sighed before getting up, grabbing Stefan and walking into my room.

I laid in my bed after changing my own clothes. To my pleasure, I found Gen waiting for me in her own silky bed wear. I got in bed with her and Stefan played music, exploring my YouTube account on the internet. Gen was caressing my face and whispering, I just closed my eyes enjoying her touch. Soon I myself fell asleep, I'd need the rest for tomorrow. Kai had set up the most enjoyable day for them.

(Damon POV)

We were sitting down for Dinner, I'd encouraged Lily to cook this time. She had smiled at me before going to work on dinner and now we had ravioli. I loved- correction used to love her cooking. I picked up my fork and began to eat my plate. It was good. However I knew I was being biased about this.

"So I enjoyed today. It was most enjoyable." I rolled my eyes, when we got her to be 'Mother Salvatore' again, we'd have to teach her how to talk.

"You could say that today was awesome, you repeated yourself."

"Today was awesome? That sounds different than how we talked. How many years have passed since I've been in this world?"

"A hundred years maybe."

"I would like a time on the computer after this meal, maybe I will learn more about the differences of how I speak and how people speak now." She wiped her mouth with her napkin before taking a drink and eating again.

"Fine, you can but you'll need Bonnie for that experiment." I finished my side of green beans before I started on my ravioli again. Soon Elena and Bonnie joined the conversation. When I finished my food and washed my dishes before taking out a cup and going to the cellar.

I had a private drink of blood before I went back upstairs to wash my cup clean. When that was finished, I went to the living room, turned on the TV and began to watch the Mystic Falls news, I didn't need any surprises of vampire attacks.

Elena came in at one point and sat right beside me. I wrapped an arm around her shoulders and she leaned against me. We watched more TV, that wasn't news, and soon it was 11:00. I got up and walked into my room to go to bed, Elena followed before dressing herself in pyjamas, I watched as she did so.

"Damon." She joked, pretending to be upset.

"Elena." I got in bed and she copied me.
