Down

3rdPOV

"Uh, I don't know what to say." Bella said after a while.

Her eyes were opened wide, the brows high, mouth opened with jaw on floor, Bella looked like deer caught in the highlights. Surprise was evident thorough her whole body and she had no idea what to say. Klaus and Bella weren't in a relationship, they just used each other for sex, but Klaus's impregnating a girl is a big deal even though there is no big deal going between Bella and Klaus. Klaus is a hybrid and immortal, how is the pregnancy even possible?

"Then we have something more in common, Love."

"Okay..." Bella blinked few times. "Now I'm good... What the hell? How is that even possible?"

"The woman is a werewolf." Klaus said.

"And? Does that instantly makes her compatible to be your magical baby mama?" It sounded little harsh, not that Bella planed it that way. "I'm sorry, I'm just trying to understand. My life isn't exactly simple and further I go crazier it becomes."

"No need to apologize. It seems her wolf gene was compatible with mine..."

"Wow..." Bella still couldn't wrap her head on this one. "I really can't picture you as daddy or maybe, just maybe..." She brought her fingers to her temples and closed her eyes. "Hmm... The Originals getting more members... I hope it is a girl, seeing as you are the king of the world she will be the princess, or... Or maybe twins, that would be interesting. Imagine two mini-Klaus cuties playing around, commanding, threatening to kill everyone and making everyone hate them with first words they ever spoke." Bella opened her eyes and looked at speechless Klaus. "You know, the usual." She shrugged with her shoulders.

"You're accepting this far better than I expected. It looks like my brother and you also have something in common."

"And what is that? Don't tell me it is the hair color... Or is it? I actually never met rest of your family besides Kol and I would really like to formally meet with Rebekah, she seems decent enough... Though I heard Damon Salvatore calling her 'Barbie Klaus'..." She was babbling.

"Love." He said calmly.

"Yeah?"

"You're babbling and for your information it is not hair related, it seems you both agree that the family is power."

Of course they do, the family is something they know it either makes or breaks you. Even now when Bella and Elena are not on speaking terms, Bella would still do everything to save her sister from damnation. The Originals had done it for thousands of years, nonfunctional as they are, at the end of the day they are still together as one. The family matters, hate them or love them, but your brother always remains one big part of who you are.

"Now, if you are really interested in meeting with my sister we can arrange something, but I need to warn you, she is not exactly nice." Bella nodded.

"Oh, I get it now why they call her Barbie Klaus, she is a lot like you."

"Are you saying that I'm evil?"

"I am saying that you are... Pretty?" Klaus laughed at that.

Bella seemed to radiate with light. She always made Klaus laugh with her silly comments, she tried hard to be positive and Klaus wondered how exactly does she do it. Bella lost so much, her brother both her adoptive and biological parents, her aunt Jenna and while Klaus took part, she didn't hate on him. Obviously, she understood Klaus's motives and he didn't do it to hurt her, he didn't even knew of Bella's existence then.

Although he had seen the world and met many different people in his long life, he never met anyone that strong. Tom, as Klaus remembered name, is probably the love of her life and he is gone, probably dead, but Bella still puts real smile on her face and laughs wholeheartedly. Still, Klaus sees how careful she is not to give her heart to someone again. It will never be him, Klaus realized, but imagining it can't hurt. He lived for long time and still has long to go...

"Maybe we should rest now and continue tomorrow before or after the veil is done." Klaus suggested.

"Maybe you're right." Bella yawned.

"Come here." Klaus made place for her to lay down on couch and took blankets.

"Your child will have the best daddy."

"What makes you say so, Love?" He asked as he lied down behind her and pulled her to his chest.

"The way you care for me. You are very sweet when you need to be. Lets sleep now. We have to bring your brother back tomorrow so your child, not only has the best daddy, but also best aunt and uncles."

The full moon was about to shine on its brightest. Bella was wandering through halls of Mystic Falls highschool which happened to be built in the middle of expression triangle. She hadn't seen Silas in person, but she talked with him over the phone and got him to agree on her terms. Earlier she was with Klaus and Bonnie, but they separated and Bonnie started working on the spell. Bella hesitated to leave Bonnie alone as she didn't completely trust her, but dead supernatural were about to pop out and she needed to be ready.

"Kol?" She stopped in middle of her tracks when she saw him. Bonnie really was bringing the veil down, it was relief.

"Isn't that my favourite, doppelgänger..." He flashed in front of her making her flinch. " Relax, Darling."

"You should be looking for Klaus, he is..."

"I should be, but it is good we stumbled each on other. It is emergency you see..."

"What kind of emergency? Speak!"

"The witch is not to be trusted, she won't bring the veil down."

"But she wants Jeremy back!" Bella argued.

"That she does." Kol agreed. "But does she really want all other supernatural creatures including one extremely ravishing Original vampire back? Think about it, Darling. Bennet expects help from Qetsiyah to put Silas down, then she'll bring Jeremy back and close the other side."

"Qetsiyah? Oh, no... Find Klaus and... And someone to kill to change Bonnie's mind..."

"What are you suggesting?" Kol asked.

"I..." She stopped for a moment. "Find Klaus, then one of you should threaten to kill Caroline and..."

"And?"

"Find Matt, feed him your blood and do same as with Caroline... Bonnie will have to oblige then."

"What about you?"

"Well, someone needs to find insurance. Bonnie can easily kick your ass... I can make her hesitate, we were friends once upon a time. Also, I will go for Elena."

Kol wasn't even surprised to hear it, he is in the end related to Klaus who had him daggered for a century. With one final nod exchange, both of them hurried down the hallway in different was of course in search for their siblings. As Bella ran, she called Klaus and informed him of change of plans. The witch is asking for getting her ass kicked, just wait Bonnie Bennett, you tried to mess with wrong girl, this one is hunter. Finding Elena turned to be harder the Bella originally thought so Bella went to tunnels to get to Bonnie when she was suddenly pushed against the wall.

"Hello sister." Elena said in casual tone even though Bella managed to push her off.

"I help you get your emotions back and this is how you thank me?"

"No... This is how I thank you." Elena grabbed Bella again and pushed Bella's face against the hot pipes.

"What are you doing?" Bella might not have Elena's vampire speed, but she matched Elena in strength. That and Bella was clever enough to always carry a stake with her. She couldn't exactly put Elena off from this angle, but her try made Elena loosen her grip for a second.

"Would you believe I'm having a bad day?" Elena went to threw a punch which Bella successfully dodged. "And now I get to kill you."

"Of course, because little Miss Elena Gilbert can never be happy with things she has so she needs to steal from others." Those words made Elena furious, but also reckless and thanks to it Bella got the upper hand, not for long though.

"I never stole anything from you. You had done nothing, but sucked the happiness out of my life." Elena threw her against the wall. It was the thing about Bella, she didn't really know how to fight against the vampire, her victims were always men who had fallen for her charms. "Now... Where is the cure?"

"You really think I'm going to give it to you?" Bella asked. " Why do you think you deserve it? I deserve it far more than you and I'm not even a vampire, I'll decide who gets it and it won't be you. I didn't have a graduation or prom or you know life, but you have. You have everything, but it is not because you're good little girl who deserves happiness, it is because you stole mine!" Bella managed to get back on her feet and pick the stake up.

"I stole yours?" Elena laughed. "You were always in my way even as children and you got Katherine to kill my brother."

"Are talking about you? Because I'll admit, you are nasty."

Elena completely lost it then, she threw herself at Bella tripping them both on floor with Bella still gripping on the stake. They were fighting like wild beast, throwing kicks in every direction, pulling on hair and scratching. Elena can't be saved, Bella realized, last ounce of good in Elena is a train which left ages ago. Maybe giving Elena the cure is the answer as Elena turned into monster when she became vampire, but from point of one hunter the monster needs to die. Bella pinned Elena down and held the stake over her heart.

"Kicking someone when their down. Classy till the end, Bella." Bella closed her eyes as she swung with the stake, but she couldn't do it. "What is it? You can't do it?" Elena mocked.

"I can, but I don't want to."

"That is too bad because I can and I want." In flash their positions were switched and Elena took the stake after breaking Bella's wrist. "You were right, I have everything, but I want more."

Bella struggled, but the end was coming and she knew it. When you think about it though, it isn't really the end of Bella. She consumes the vampire blood on daily basis so if Elena kills her now, it is just end of her human-vampire slaying life. Bella could use few more months as human, but becoming bloodthirsty immortal doesn't really bother her so she wasn't afraid of death. It was scary though that person making the kill is her sister... But lets cut the crap, Bella won't become vampire today, not when the first immortal ever is having her back. Elena was out in matter of seconds.

"Lesson for future" Silas picked Bella in his arms. "When you fight with your enemies fight hard, but when you fight with someone who used to be close to you, fight even harder because they are your greatest enemies now." Review.

And here we go, I hope you like this if not... Lets not go there. Also for fans of I dare you, I updated last week and new update will be up this week if everything goes according to my plans.
