Update! Let me know what you think!


Morning came, and Damon was on edge, as Elena sat with the sheriff in his living room.

"My deputies will be there, ready to move the second something goes wrong," the sheriff promised.

"Then we should get going," Elena noted, standing, "We're as ready as we'll ever be."

Liz nodded, but Damon grabbed Elena's arm, forcing her to look at him, "Are you sure?"

"Yes, I've said this a million times, I have to do this, Damon."

"No, you don't!" He hissed," We can find another way."

Elena shook her head, "Damon, please. Baby, I know you're scared, okay. Trust me, I'm freaking the hell out too, but I'm going to do this. For me."

The look she gave him only clarified her words, and he sighed, pulling her against him.

"Be careful."

He looked up at the sheriff then, "Anything seems off, you send your men in. Nothing happens to Elena."

Liz placed a hand on his arm, "We'll take care of her, Damon."

He nodded, praying this all went well.


Elena took a deep breath. She was standing outside of the apartment that she'd shared with Klaus, thanking the heavens that she still had a key. The wire Liz had given her was tucked into her bra, and hopefully by the end of the day, this would all be over.

She tried to remember her life as Katherine. The past few years that had felt so empty. Just stay calm and keep down. Klaus would be easy to fool.

She turned the key in the lock and went inside. Klaus's car was in the drive, so she knew he'd be home. But she also knew that there were two police cars parked down the road a little ways, Damon with them.

The thought brought her comfort.


Focusing on keeping her breathing normal, she rounded the corner, into the living room, where she could hear Klaus's voice. Since there was no answer, she assumed he was on the phone.

"Nik?" She called, once she spotted him, pacing next to the couch, phone to his ear.

He spun around quickly.

"I'll call you back," he muttered into the cell before hanging up.

"Katherine."

Elena took a step toward him, "We need to talk."

"We most certainly do, love," Klaus agreed, "Sit."

Elena knew better than to piss him off too soon, so she did as he said, placing herself on the couch across from him.

"Where have you been?" he demanded immediately.

"Mystic Falls," she replied honestly.

He froze for a second, "Why?"

Elena thought over the ideas that had been playing in her head when she'd left a few days ago.

"I...I was having dreams about it. About a family, in a cemetery. So I went to check it out."

His voice hardened, "And what did you find?"

"A girl." Elena answered, "Who told me some interesting things."

The anger was in his eyes now, "Like what?"

Elena hesitated, not sure how much to tell him.

"Who was the girl, Katherine?!"

"Caroline," Elena stated, "And she told me that my real name was Elena Gilbert...That you've been lying to me and that I'm from Mystic Falls. She took me back to her place, showed me some pictures. I've been trying to figure out what it all meant."

"And Salvatore?" Klaus pressed, "What did she say about him?"

Elena forced her eyebrows to pull together, "Who?"

Klaus seemed to gauge her response, which was apparently innocent enough.

"Nobody."

Elena exhaled, "So...um, you want to tell me what it was all about? She showed me pictures of myself and other people that I don't remember...why is that?"

Klaus smirked, "Don't worry about it, love. I'll explain everything later."

Elena swallowed as he reached for her hand, "Why not now?"

"Because it can wait," he replied as he stood her up, "Right now, I want to just spend time with you. I was worried, when you disappeared."

Yeah right, Elena mentally rolled her eyes.

"I didn't mean to scare you," she said out loud, "I was just confused. But I figured that you deserved the chance to explain."

Klaus studied her, "All in good time, love. Right now, I want you to show you how much I missed you."

Then he was kissing her.

Nerves planted in her stomach, knowing that the police were listening on the other end of the device she was hiding, ergo, Damon was listening.

But it was the thought of him that made her return the kiss.

"Mmmh, now tell me you've missed me too," Klaus demanded, resting his forehead on hers.

"I missed you," she replied robotically, as his lips trailed down her neck, his hands gripping her waist.

God she did not want this to escalate.

"Nik, please. Can we finish talking?"

Klaus pulled away, "Why?"

"Because I'm still confused," she pointed out, "I'd like to know what happened, the truth."

"I've told you what happened, you were in an accident, it put you into a coma."

"That's not what Caroline said," Elena declared, "She said I was killed, and you had something to do with it. She told me I was with somebody else, friends with different people."

Klaus's grip on her tightened, "She told you too much."

"What do you mean?" She pressed, praying he'd come out with it.

"Nothing," he shifted, "But I think it's time for you to take your medicine, you've been without it for a few days."

Panic flew through her veins, "No..."

Klaus seemed surprised, "What?"

"I don't want medicine Klaus, I want you to tell me what happened."

He stared her down, "Klaus?"

Too late she realized her mistake.

"You did meet Damon, didn't you?"

Elena swallowed, "That's what Caroline called you."

"It's more than that," he protested, "What all do you remember?"

"A lot of weird things," Elena lied, "But everything feels dream like, and I can't tell what really happened, and what didn't. None of it adds up."

Klaus sighed, pulling her arm, "You really need your medicine."

Elena tried to break his grasp, but it was too tight.

He lead her into the bedroom, one she'd once shared with him, before he let her go.

Then he walked over to the dresser where she knew he kept the vials of her "medicine".

She wasn't too worried about him putting it in her, because she'd already injected herself with the antigen, but if he stuck her, he'd expect her to forget it all, and then she'd never get the confession.

"Why do I need medicine if I was never in a wreck?" She challenged.

Klaus was filling a needle up with the serum, "Because there are things you need help with," he answered.

"What is that?" she asked, pointing to the bottle in his hand.

"Just a benzodiazephine called Hydroxyzine dichlorhydrate," He smirked, "It'll...help you."

Elena watched as he finished, and knew that she wouldn't be able to stop him from injecting her this way.

Her mind reeled as she thought up a new game plan.

"Come now, love," he reached for her arm, stretching it out.

She allowed him to put the needle in, taking a deep breath.

"There," he stated once he finished, "Isn't that better? Here, now put this up. I have to finish a phone call."

She nodded, taking the needle from him, and watched him pull out his phone.

An idea came to her then, as he turned his back to her.

She walked over to where he'd placed the bottle, and grabbed one that was already full. She filled the syringe up halfway, putting the bottle with the remainder into her pocket.

Then glancing over her shoulder, she saw Klaus had the phone to his ear, the other person having just picked up.

She came up behind him.

"Nik?"

"I know, it's just- hold on," he turned to her, "What?"

As fast as she could, Elena sank the needle deep into his neck. He dropped the phone as his hands flew to remove it, but Elena was already moving.

Faster than she'd ever ran, she stormed out the door to her car. She was backing out as Klaus finally came out the door.

Hitting the gas, she drove away, her breath not easing until she reached the place that Liz was waiting with her deputies.


"Elena, thank God, I was worried for a second," Liz declared when she got out.

Damon flew to her side instantly, "Are you alright?"

His arms wrapped around her, helping her heart calm.

"I think so...is this enough, Liz?" She pulled the bottle out of her pocket," I know it wasn't an actual confession, but he jabbed me with it, quoted the name of it, and I got this for evidence...after giving him a little."

Liz smiled some, "Don't worry, I have some men heading that way to arrest him now. Though I'm going to assume he's fled, he couldn't have gotten far."

Elena nodded, leaning against Damon's body.

"You okay?" He asked again, and she nodded, bringing her hand up to his neck, "Just kiss me."

He smiled, doing just that.

Liz turned from them to answer a call.

"Alright, well follow it until you find him. I want an immediate arrest." She told her deputy.

"Good- wait, I have another call. Hello? Yes, this is...You what?"

Elena didn't like the look on Liz's face.

"Why weren't we informed sooner? Damn it! Okay, okay. Thank you."

She hung up and Elena threw her a questioning look.

"What's wrong?"
Liz eyed the couple in front of her, "My deputies are going to find Klaus Mikalson, but that was the hospital's lab. The results of your autopsy report tests came back, Elena."

Elena was still confused, "That was the test to prove that I miscarried, right? Since we couldn't prove the rape?"

Liz nodded, "Yeah, it was. Only, you didn't miscarry, Elena. The results from your body show that you carried to term, and gave birth."

Elena felt Damon freeze.

"Wait," she swallowed, "I had my baby?"


Dun dun dun! Not really sure if this came as a surprise, but I do what I can ;)
