After my fight with Damon I ended up crashing at my place. I didn't want to be in the same house as Elena or Damon so I ended up falling asleep at home. I hear my phone buzzing and look to see it's Stefan calling me. I answer it. "What?"

"Where are you?" Stefan questions.

"Home."

"Why are you there? Do you not realise an original vampire is after you?"

"Oh Stefan stop it. He isn't invited in, I'm fine, I needed to get out of that awful house."

"Have you seen Elena?" He asks.

"Isn't she with you?"

"I can't find her, and Elijah is missing."

"You're worried because?"

"Because she is with an orginal vampire that she stabbed with a dagger and I don't know where she is."

"Oh stop worrying she is probably getting answers." I respond. "Let her do what she needs to do, she's a big girl I'm sure she can handle it." I finish hanging up. How rude of him to wake me up because Elena is missing.

I quickly get my phone out and use my app that I have to find her. Lockwood mansion. How interesting. I quickly get up and put on some jeans and flannel with white converse to complete the look. My hair is in a messy bun and I grab my car keys and head off towards the lockwood Mansion. I need to know what Elijah knows so I can inform Klaus.


I arrive at the Lockwoods and find Elena's car in the driveway. I make my way towards the car when I see two figures inside, they must be still in the car. I walk to Elena's side of the car and I wait for the perfect opportunity and suddenly knock which Elena jumps startled looking in my direction and she glares. I laugh loudly. "OMG, you should've seen your face."

"What are you doing here?" She bellows.

"Your boyfriend is worried you're doing something stupid and I guess he was right. Hello Elijah."

"Briana, nice seeing you again." he greets.

"You too. I apologise for my sister's behaviour when I was away, she really doesn't think sometimes."

"Briana what are you doing here?" Elena asks again.

"After your boyfriend woke me up, who seemed very worried, I checked my find my friend's app and found you here and here we are." I answer. "Oh and I also wanted to know why you would pull the dagger out of someone you daggered, do you really have no brains?"

"Would you just go?"

"Sorry no can do." I respond and she huffs getting out of the car. "So Elijah, how are you, besides just being undaggered?"

"Still feel a little dead, that's why I asked Elena to drive me here so we can chat."

"Splendid. Mind if I join?" I invite myself.

"More the merrier."

"Well lead the way." I announce and he walks us up to the front door. I turn to face Elena who has a scowl on her face. "Lighten up Elena."


Elijah knocks on the front door of the Lockwood Mansion and a moment later Carol opens it. "Oh my, Elijah, Brie, Elena! What are you doing here? What happened?" She questions.

"I've had a bit of an incident, Carol. I'm hoping you could help." Elijah responds as Elena and I stand behind him and I just send her a smile.

"Well I'm on my way to a meeting, so I-" Carol begins to say but Elijah stands in front of her and compels her.

"It won't take a minute of your time."

"Of course. Anything you need." She replies.

"Thank you." he thanks and we enter in front of him. "First things first I'm going to need a change of clothing."

"You can try one of my husband's suits. I haven't boxed them up yet."

"Wonderful." He thanks.

"How did you know she's not on vervain?" I ask curiously.

"I'm the one who got her off it. Right before your sister and her friends killed me. Twice. If you'll excuse me. I'll be down in a moment."


Elijah, Elena and I are sitting in the living room and Elijah is going over what he has missed since he was daggered. I wonder what Elena's game is for undaggering him?

"I assume that the Martin witches are no longer with us." Elijah assumes.

"Sadly." I mutter sarcastically.

"Where were you when this happened?"

"I was visiting my boyfried, you know, saying goodbye, having sex." I announce and Elena gasps at my openness.

Elijah sends me a smirk. "Did you know that they were going to be daggering me?"

"No I didn't. And if I did I would have told them it was a stupid move but I guess they have to learn from their own mistakes, you see I'm a lot smarter than Elena."

"Stop it." Elena wines.

I raise my hands up in mock surrender. "Just telling the truth."

"What about Katerina or Katherine whatever she calls herself these days?" Elijah questions.

"Klaus took her. We think that she may be dead." Elena answers solemnly.

"I doubt it." I mumble.

Elijah looks at me amused. "Why so?"

"Just doesn't seem like Klaus's thing. She's been on the run for 500 years, I think he would want her to suffer first."

"True. Death would be to easy after what she did." Elijah confirms.

"I don't understand. You say that you want Klaus dead, but you still made Katherine pay for betraying him." Elena mutters confused.

"I have my own reasons for wanting Katerina to pay. There was a time I'd have done anything for Klaus." He admits.

"Where have you come from, Katerina?" Klaus asks.

"I'm new to town, my lord." Katerina responds with a smile.

Elijah looks at Klaus with a smile. "Katerina is from Bulgaria." Elijah informs Klaus.

"Zdravei, Katerina." Klaus responds in Bulgarian.

She laughs in delight. "Very good."

Klaus looks at Elijah. "Do you mind, brother? I would like to have a moment alone with her."

"No not at all. Happy Birthday, brother."

I sit there with a fake shocked face knowing already that Elijah is Nik's brother. "Klaus is my brother." Elijah repeats.

"I did not see that coming." I lie.

"Yes I'm a little behind on the times, but I believe the term you're searching for is "O.M.G." he responds and I laugh sipping my tea.


Elijah slowly goess into more detail about his family. God I wish I was with Nik now, I wouldn't have to go through this torture of listening to this. When Nik told me all this, it was more exciting, Elijah is just so boring if I am being honest. "There's a whole family of Originals?" Elena questions still in shock.

God she's daft. I got the brains and beauty poor girl that's probably why she is such a bitch to me. "My father was a wealthy land owner in a village in Eastern Europe. Our mother bore seven children." Elijah explains.

"So your parents were human?"

"Our whole family was. Our origin as vampires is a very long story, Elena. Just know we're the oldest vampires in the world. We are the Original family, and from us all vampires were created."

"Right and Klaus is your brother but you want him dead?" I pipe up.

He doesn't answer. "I need some air I'm still feeling a tad dead. Come."

I scoff. "He didn't answer my question."


Elijah, Elena and I are walking along the grounds of the Lockwood Estate and Elijah is still talking about the Original's. "So as you've seen, nothing can kill an Original. Not sun, not fire, not even a werewolf bite. Only the wood from one tree. A tree my family made sure burned." Elijah continues to explain.

"That's where the white ash for the dagger comes from." I mention.

"Thats correct Briana. The witches won't allow anything truly immortal to walk the earth. Every creature needs to have a weakness in order to maintain the balance."

"So the sun can't kill an Original. Why is Klaus so obsessed with breaking the Sun and Moon curse?" Elena asks confused.

Elijah smiles softly. "The curse of the sun and the moon. It's all so, biblical-sounding, don't you think?"

"What's so funny?"

Klaus is sitting on a chair in a bedroom of the mansion. A woman is in front of him. Elijah's there too and he shows him a parchment. "Look. A Roman parchment." He shows.

"I remember etching this scroll. Well, I was quite blistered from drink." Klaus jokes.

"Your finest work remains your Aztec drawings."

"Not the African carvings? Cause I was quite proud of those."

"The Aztec. Who can resist a shaman?" Elijah wonders as Klaus laughs. "Yes!"

"I don't understand. So Klaus drew the Aztec sketches about the curse?" Elena asks with a raised brow.

"Roman scrolls, African tribal etchings, and any other culture or continent we felt like planting it in."

"But why?"

"The easiest way to discover the existence of a doppelgänger or to get your hands on some long lost moonstone is to have every single member of two warring species on the lookout."

"So it's not Aztec at all?"

"The curse of the Sun and the Moon, is fake. It doesn't exist." Elijah announces and starts to walk away.

I laugh. "Fake, jeeze, how rude of you two."

"What?!" Elena shrieks.

"Did you not hear what he just said?"

"Oh shut up." She grumbles.

"I'm not the one that didn't get it." I grumble and follow Elijah feeling the daggers of Elena's eyes daggering me in the back. "Elijah I think you need to explain it in English for dumb dumb over there."

Elijah chuckles slightly. "And why are you so calm about this?"

"I'm not I just don't show my feelings." I respond.

"Well to help Elena process it in simpler terms, Klaus and I faked the sun and moon curse dating back over a thousand years."

"But if there's no curse." Elena comments.

"There's a curse. Just not that one. The real one's much worse. It's a curse placed on Klaus."

"What's the curse?" I ask already knowing.

A phone is heard vibrating and Elijah clearly not happy about it pulls it out. "Your phone will not stop its incessant buzzing. Answer it, please." He orders.

Elena takes it and answers it's Stefan. "Stefan, what's wrong? No. No, no, no, no. Okay, I'll be right there." Elena says hanging up and looks to Elijah and me. "Klaus went after Jenna. I have to go to her."

And for the first time I am even in shock. "What?" I shriek.

"Klaus went after Jenna."

"Well what are you doing? Move your feet let's go."

"I'm afraid that wasn't part of today's arrangement." Elijah denies.

"No you don't get to tell us when to leave and stay, my aunt just got approached by your brother, she's my family, I'm leaving."

"For once I agree with Brie. Jenna is our family and we have to go, and we both will be back, you have my word." Elena promises.

"That doesn't mean anything to me until you live up to it." Elijah responds.

"Thank you."

I slowly follow after her. "I would have gone with or without permission." I finish and walk out.


In the car I sit twiddling my fingers. "I know we can't stand each other, but right now, we need to be able to be in a place where we can tell Jenna what's going on." I start.

She glances at me and glares but it faults. "Fine."

"After we tell her, then we can go back to hating each other for all I care, but right now all I care about is telling Jenna what is going on, we should have told her from the beginning."

"She would have been at risk."

"She is now Elena." I yell.

We sit quietly. "Let's be civil for Jenna."

"Good."


Elena and I arrive at the boarding house, before the car stops I jump out and run inside. "Where is she?" I ask.

"Brie?" says a soft voice.

I hear it come from the library I enter and see a teary eyed Jenna. "OMG, are you okay?"

She stands up and approaches me. "No."

"I'm so sorry that I didn't tell you when I came back but I was told not to." I tell her trying to save my ass.

"I can't believe you didn't tell me." she mumbles as Elena enters clearly upset.

"Jenna." Elena calls out.

"No." Jenna shouts at Elena and I smile on the inside.

"I'm so sorry. I never meant for any of this to happen."

"When I was little, your mom used to tell me bedtime stories. Stories about vampires. I never thought that what she said could be true."

"It's true Jenna." I whisper.

She looks at me and I can see more tears coming out of her eyes. I hold her tightly as Elena tries to cover her ass. "I should have told you. I thought that if you didn't know, you'd be safe. But then things got so out of control and everything I had done to keep you out of it, it just blew up in my face."

"Who else knows? Jeremy?" Jenna asks. We nod. "John?"

"Yes." I answer holding her tightly.

"We were just trying to protect you." Elena explains.

"Protect me?" She scoffs.

"I'm so sorry Jenna." I apologise actually meaning it. "I will tell you everything."

"It's not supposed to be like this, I should be protecting you guys." She cries.

"We know but there's nothing that you could have done. There's so much more to it." Elena explains futher.

"No, this is, this is so, I don't know how, it's." Jenna mumbles finally breaking into tears. She berries her head in my chest and I rub her back.

"I'm so sorry Jenna." I aplologise.

"Why didn't you tell me? I'm scared."

"We are too." I confess and just let her hold me as she cries herself to sleep.


After a while I let her fall asleep on the couch and pull a blanket over her. "We should go back." Elena whispers.

I nod wiping my tears crying for the first time in a while. "We should have told her sooner." I confess and walk towards the entrance of the house where Stefan is.

"Is she gonna be okay?" Stefan asks.

"She's in shock." I answer. "I tried telling her but I barely got through an apology, I'll try later, she just needs some time."

Elena nods in agreement. "I'm so sorry, girls. I hate this." Stefan continues.

"It's not your fault, Stefan." Elena responds.

"You're right it's not it's everyone's, now we need to go." I remind her.

She nods and goes to leave. "Wait, what? No, no!" Stefan denies.

"Stefan I promised him that I would return. I can't break that promise." Elena explains.

"I'll be waiting in the car." I announce.

"No you won't." a voice says from in front of me.

I look up to see Damon guarding the door. "You need to let me past."

"No can do."

"Well I'm sorry for this then." I say in advance and kick him in the shin. "Elena let's go." I repeat and she follows leaving a shocked Stefan and Damon watching after us.


We arrive back at the Lockwood's again and find Elijah by the fireplace. He looks at us relieved that we came back. "You both came back." He notices.

"We did." I confirm.

"Now tell us, what's Klaus's curse?" Elena asks not waiting a beat.

"Take a seat." he directs and we sit down on the lounge. "My family was quite close, but Klaus and my father did not get on too well. When we became vampires, we discovered the truth. Klaus was not my father's son." Elijah announces. "My mother had been unfaithful many years before. This was her darkest secret. Klaus is from a different bloodline. Of course, when my father discovered this, he hunted down and he killed my mother's lover and his entire family. Not realizing, of course, that he was igniting a war between species that rages until this day."

"A war between the species?" Elena asks.

"The vampires and the werewolves."

"So Klaus' real father was from a werewolf bloodline? What does that make Klaus? A werewolf or a vampire?"

"He's both." I guess.

"Correct. A hybrid would be deadlier than any werewolf or vampire. Nature would not stand for such an imbalance of power. Therefore the witches, saw to it that my brother's werewolf side would become dormant."

"And that's the curse Klaus wants to break?" Elena clarifies.

"Klaus wants to trigger that part of him that's a werewolf. If allowed, he would sire his own bloodline and build his own race. Endangering not just vampires, but everyone."

It's to protect you from Mikael you backstabber. "But you helped him?" I question.

"I helped him because I loved him. That's changed, now he must die."

"We have the dagger now. We can stop him." Elena expresses.

"When a werewolf is wounded by silver, it heals. An Original can't be killed by anything but white oak ash on a silver dagger. So you see the conundrum the dagger does not work."

"What, are you saying that Klaus can't be killed?" Elena queries.

"There's one way to kill any supernatural species at the hands of the servants of nature themselves."

"A witch." I whisper.

Elijah nods. "But if they can channel that much power it would kill them." Elena adds.

"The curse must be broken during the full moon. When Klaus is in transition that's when he'll be at his most vulnerable. A witch with enough power can kill Klaus."

I try to control my heart rate in shock he want's to kill his brother, he should know Klaus wouldn't actually kill his siblings, is Elijah really that gullable to believe it.

"What if I told you that I knew a witch that could channel that much power." Elena announces.

"Then I would tell you there's one more thing that you should know."

Klaus is standing by a burning fireplace in a room of the mansion. Elijah enters the room. "The full moon is tomorrow brother. After all these centuries it's finally time." Klaus addresses.

"I have been to see the witches. They believe they may have found a way to spare the doppelgänger."

"What does it matter if she lives or not? She's a means to an end."

"What, she should die for your gain?"

"She is human her life means nothing." Klaus responds.

"I beg you to consider this."

"Are you foolish as to care for her?"

"Of course not." Elijah denies.

Klaus the approaches him closely. "Love is a vampire's greatest weakness, and we are not weak, Elijah. We do not feel, and we do not care."

"We did once."

"Too many lifetimes ago to matter. Tell the witches not to bother. The sacrifice will happen as planned."

"You found a way to save the life of the doppelgänger?" Elena questions.

Elijah nods. "Yes so I can save both of yours."

"Don't bother I found a way to save my own life." I announce.

"How so?"

"Whilst you were daggered I made contact with a witch she put a protection spell on me, I would fall into a coma like sleep until my body heals and once the ritual is finished I would wake up hours later."

"That's not possible." He responds.

"It is."

"Who is this witch?"

"That is something I will keep to myself. That was her only deal, I am not to tell anyone who she is."

He gives me a look examining me. "There is more to you that meets the eye isn't there."

I smirk at him as Elena interrupts. "So you can save my life?" She questions.

"Yes." Elijah answers. "So don't do what Katerina did, I believe you both know how that played out."

"You cared about her, didn't you?" I ask curiously.

"It's a common mistake, I'm told. And it's one I won't make again."

"Good to hear, because I hear she plays with a lot of peoples hearts." I mutter and he stands up walking us to the door and we leave.

"True." He agrees.

"Well I would love to stay and chat, I have somewhere to be, I'll be around to check on Jenna later, don't wait up Lena." I dismiss.

"Where are you going?" She asks.

"Out."


3rd Person POV

Maddox and Greta are on their knees casting a spell. There candles lit all around them. Alaric is standing next to a box, his head bowed and eyes closed. Katherine is looking at them scared. Maddox and Greta stop chjanting and they look towards Alaric as he opens his eyes and looks at Katherine. "Elena?" he questions and collapses on the floor.

Maddox stands and opens up the big box and out comes Klaus as hot as ever and looks down at Alaric smiling. "Now that's more like it." Klaus says and turns to Katerina who look's like she could drop dead of being so scared. "I have somewhere to be, watch her." He orders and flashes off.


Brie POV

I am sitting on a bench in town square annoyed. My day went horribly. I was stuck with Elijah and my bitch of a sister going over a story I already know. On top of that I find out my boyfriend goes after my Aunt. He has a lot of explaining to do. I suddenly feel a flash of cool air hit my skin and I take a deep breath to stop myself from yelling. "You really pissed me off today." I address to the seat next to me and sit back to find Klaus in his true form smirking.

"I'm sorry love, but I told you I had to do things, this I had to do to make it look real." He explains.

"You could have warned me. Next time just a little heads up all I ask."

"As you wish love. Now tell me how your day with my brother was?"

I groan loudly and he chuckles. "My day was torture. I spent the whole day being told a story I already know and it made me want to scream."

Klaus grins and leans close to me and whispers in my ear. "I can have you screaming other things."

I gasp as I feel his breath on my skin. "Klaus don't talk dirty with me I'm still mad at you." I scold.

"Of course you are, but do you know what is good about being mad at someone?"

"What?" I mumble trying to control my emotions as he starts to suck on my neck. I moan a little trying to keep myself together.

I feel his lips turn into a grin as he continues to suck on my favourite spot. "Make up sex." He whispers and goes back to sucking my neck.

"Klaus, stop, stop." I moan.

"You sure love, I can hear your heartbeat picking up every second?" he retorts as he lowers his lips and travels further down my neck and his hand hovers over my leg.

I gasp as his hand travels up my jeans and starts to get closer to my favourite place. "Klaus." I moan.

"What do you want?" he whispers. I don't know what to do, so I just do what I always do, I lean my head back and give him easier access. He growls in content that he won and starts to travel towards my shoulder blade. "You know I still can't get over that 60s costume."

"Agh." I moan as his hands grope me over my jeans. "Klaus we need to get out of public." I whisper. Suddenly I am lifted and am flashed off in a direction I don't know where. We stop and I am surrounded by trees. "The woods really?"

"It's always been an image of mine taking you up against a tree." He grins.

"You are a dirty, dirty man." I purr.

"Well I have a dirty, dirty woman to keep me happy."

"Really?" I smirk and turn around to face him. "Show me how dirty." I grin and take my shirt off showing my Victoria Secret bra. He growls flashing me against a tree and kisses me fiercly and I let him take control.


After my rendezvous in the woods with Nik I am in a much better mood and find my way back to the boarding house. I sneak inside and try to find Jenna's room as I want to see if she's okay. I eventually find it. "Where have you been?" a voice asks from behind me.

I jump back and see Damon behind me. "Ah no where." I lie.

"What's on your neck?" he wonders observing me and I quickly cover my love bite.

"Alright you caught me, my boyfriend is in town."

"What?"

"He surprised me."

"And you did what?"

"Do you really want to know?" I ask him smirking. He frowns shaking his head. "I'm going to check on Jenna."

I enter Jenna's room and find her sleeping. I sneak over and crawl into the other side. She groans rubbing her eyes and sees me in her bed. "Where were you?" she asks and I can see her eyes are puffy.

"My boyfriend came to visit me, but I told him I needed to check on my aunt. How are you doing?" I ask her. She shakes her head. "Come here."

"I used to do this to you when you were upset."

"It happened a lot."

"But not anymore, you're different."

"I have to be."

"What made you this way?" She questions.

"I guess mum and dad dying to start, seeing how quickly life can be taken and I wanted to live in a world not being bullied by Elena."

"And do you feel belittled now?"

I shake my head. "I feel powerful." I whisper. "Now no more talking, I'll talk to you tomorrow about everything."

"Thank you for being a great niece."

"Thanks for being the best aunt and friend." I retort.
