A/N: Hey! What's up? :D I'm sorry I posted this up later than usual...
Dedicated to Stalker Evrdeen.
Disclaimer: I don't own TVD.
They got another notice from Sheriff not too long after the last one. It was quite regular now: Once a week, Stefan would kill another couple of people and then burn up the place, unless it was a dark alley.
"So are we going, Damon?"
"Do you want to, princess?" Damon asked.
"I'm scared that Stefan would break my heart once more..."
"Then don't go if you're afraid."
"Are you going?"
"Not if you're going, Elena. Do you think I'd leave you behind alone where the hybrids can attack you and take you away? No, Elena. I won't risk you at all for Stefan when we have so many chances of seeing him again. And he will come back in maybe a century or so if Klaus even lets him go. My priority now is you."
"Oh."
"But even if you'd wanted to go, I wouldn't let you. It's too dangerous. Stefan or Klaus could harm you anytime, anywhere. They have eyes all around. In Mystic Falls," Damon ended with a dramatic mysterious voice that creeped Elena out.
"Oh well, I guess it's scary," Elena went along with Damon's haunted expression.
"On a dark mysterious spooky night, Elena, the Stefan-hunter walked up to the crime scene. The room was dotted with blood that was splattered around the room. And then-"
Bang!
"Damon Salvatore!" A familiar voice screamed after the the main door opened violently.
"Caroline! What are you doing here?"Elena laughed and walked over to Caroline to give her a hug. Damon rolled his eyes at their girly-ness.
"Elena! How are you? I'm here to look for the annoying Damon, of course."
"I'm totally fine," Elena smiled.
"So what is it you want, Caroline?" Damon sighed.
"I don't want anything. Now. You two didn't go down to the station to get this, so I have to deliver it to your doorstep. My mom was complaining about the stack of information on her desk." Caroline dumped a few big stacks of document folders on the table and continued, "These are all the cases with every single detail of the newest case. It's mass murder this time. No doubt Stefan and Klaus."
"That's... a lot," Elena pointed to the folders.
"Don't worry. We'll be able to finish them. And thanks a lot, Caroline," Damon smiled.
"You're welcome," Caroline walked out of the door but stopped halfway and giggled, "Oh and don't misplace it! We won't print another set for you!" Caroline slammed the front door shut and Elena sighed.
"We can't finish all these in one day!" Elena gestured to the stack of documents in front of them.
"Well, we'll try..." Damon said hesitantly while picking up a folder and took a peek inside.
"It looks like there's more than 500 pages in there..." Elena complained and counted the number of document folders.
"10 files multiplied by 500 pages..."
"Oh my goodness..."
"At least we wouldn't be wasting time sitting around and doing nothing. We now have something to do," Damon said sternly.
"True."
They got down to reading every single page. Damon read faster than Elena and he finished one whole file in 5 hours.
"This is getting boring," Damon yawned.
"Shut up, I'm trying to read."
"Oh fine. What would you like for dinner Elena?"
"Just something simple, thanks," Elena said, without looking up from her paper.
"Mass murder in Chicago," Lucy read out loud from the papers.
"Klaus... slowly torturing my Stefan..." Katherine hissed.
"I thought he was Elena's?"
"Not anymore! Stefan's supposed to be mine now," Katherine snapped.
"Woah, woah. Chill down. I just thought."
"I want so badly to kill Klaus now... Stefan must be really scared and..." Katherine was lost for words at the thought of Stefan suffering.
"We'll kill him eventually. I'm very sure of that," Lucy replied.
"How? Without me dying, of course."
"That's the witches' job to be taken care of," Lucy smiled.
"Really? But I'd really like a part in tearing and shredding him apart slowly and torture him... Just like he tortured me." Katherine relished that thought of finally getting her revenge on Klaus with an evil smile on her face.
"Sorry, but I don't think that's possible if your line of vampires don't want to die."
"But in one way or another, I just want Klaus dead."
"He can't be fully dead. We can take his soul and cage it in an urn. His body will be left to rot and the urn... Well, we can bury it or make it disappear. Then no more Klaus problems," Lucy smiled.
"Perfect. When can we do that?"
"When the time is right."
"My loneliness is killing me..." Klaus sang terribly out of tune. He was drunk along with a half-drunk Stefan.
"You still have me!" Stefan laughed hysterically. "But I must confess, I still believe..."
"When I'm not with you I lose my mind..."
"You do?"
"Of course I do! You're my good ol' friend... I was losing my mind when I compelled you to forget that you've ever met me."
"Poor you!"
"Yeah, poor me... Now I don't have anyone but you. But now I'm stronger than yesterday, now it's nothing but my way."
"Klaus' way!" Stefan cheered, his heart's thoughts not matching the words that came out of his mouth.
"I will one day take over the world and rule it!" Klaus let out an evil laughter.
A mother and her daughter around the age of eight was walking past them and heard Klaus. The mother looked at him with a frown and urged her daughter to move faster.
"Is anything the problem, ma'am?" Klaus shouted across to her. The woman ignored him and hurried away with her daughter.
Klaus got angry that the woman had ignored her and he found it rude of her. He flashed in front of her and she was shocked, suddenly stopping. Her daughter clung tightly to the woman's jeans and her eyes told Klaus that she was frightned.
"Is anything the problem, ma'am?" Klaus repeated.
"No..." the woman replied in a slightly shaky voice and continued walking away. Klaus motioned to Stefan to kill them.
"Excuse me, miss..." Stefan purred after he ran up to them.
"Yes?" the woman answered coldly. "What is it you want?"
"Well, you see, I'm quite hungry..."
"Do you need something to eat?" the woman got a little concerned. "Shall I buy you a burger or something?"
"Yes, I need something to eat, but I don't think it would be necessary for you to buy, because I have what I need here..." Stefan trailed off sugesttively.
The woman looked uncomfortable and didn't answer.
Stefan felt his fangs extend and the woman screamed. Stefan dug in to his meal and didn't even bother covering the woman's mouth. Her screams grew weaker and weaker as Stefan drew the life out of her. When he was done draining her, he pushed the body to the ground. He noticed the girl still standing there, trembling weakly but she was stiff. Stefan's fangs retracted. He bent down to the girl.
"Little girl, what's your name?" Stefan asked sweetly.
"Melanie," she replied, scared.
"And Melanie, how old are you?"
"Today I just turned eight and my mommy was about to bring me home from my birthday party," she smiled a little, oblivious to the fact that her mother was already dead. Maybe she still can't register that fact yet, Stefan thought sadly. I wish I didn't have to ruin her birthday...
"Did you recieve very wonderful presents?"
"Yes! I had recieved barbie dolls and many other wonderful presents from everyone!" The girl was getting comfortable with Stefan but he knew Klaus wouldn't want that.
"But do you know your mommy's dead already?" Stefan asked in a pity tone.
"Wha... what?" the girl began to sob. "You killed her!"
"Yes, I did. But I'm going to make it better. I'm going to give you another present."
The girl didn't really lighten up and started wailing. "What present?"
"Death."
