Chapter 14

If love is what you need a solider I will be…

I was tired, I was so tired of fighting. I wish I could go back to when I was on the cheer squad and me and Elena and Bonnie ruled the school, when we had sleepovers watching mean girls and the notebook on repeat. Back to when all of our parents were alive Elena's and mine. School was simple and our lives were safe and not risked every day. But that was all taken away from me and I wasn't even aware of it until something was taken away from me, something I couldn't get back, something I have learnt is that life is precious

'We're here'

I was snapped out of my deep thoughts, I turned and looked out the window, trust my family to be buried in Salem the witch city. We located were the tomb was and then we set off the next day. Salem was about a 2 hour drive from Mystic falls so we arrived around lunch time, we parked outside of the cemetery and walked through the gates, I didn't like it, I didn't like it one bit all the graves were decayed and some were covered in green moss I could feel eyes watching me but when I looked nothing was there I let Klaus keep the lead because I didn't have any idea where I was going I was reading the gravestones when I walked into Klaus's stone hard back. I looked around dazed as why we had stopped then I notice the big tomb inform of us written over the entrance archway was the name Forbes. We walked down some steep steps until we entered the main chamber beyond the main chamber there was four gates that held stone coffins behind each one, for some reason I thought there would be more dead people down here but fours enough for me. Klaus made his way over to the first gate and tried to open it he gave up and bent the bars as if they were made out of play dough rather than iron he lifted the lid of the coffin and the smell hit me and made me gag, Klaus looked into the coffin and shook his head

'Nothing is in this one love' he closed the lid and walked back into the main chamber he made his way to the other gate and did the same process, whilst he was doing this I walked over to the very last gate something had caught my eye when I had first entered above the gate there was a in print of a crow, I looked down to the gate a realised that he had been opened the gate was thick with dust so it hadn't been opened recently but it had been opened because I was able to push it open without any trouble, I walked in and found that the lid of the coffin was slightly open and it was easy to push off I opened the lid half expecting someone or something to jump out at me, but nothing happened as a lifted the lid and to my dismay nothing was inside, well I guess I never really believed anything was inside since someone had clearly beaten us to the punch I had almost given up on the whole thing until something in the hand of the skeleton caught my attention, I didn't want to touch the skeleton but I saw no other choice if I wanted to find out what was in the hand, I extended each of the fingers until I was able to get a hold of what was in the hand, it was a crumpled piece of paper I slipped it in my pocket and walked out into the main chamber to find Klaus coming back from the third out chamber

'Did you find anything?' I nodded and signalled for us to leave the Crypt for some reason I felt like we were being watched and I felt like we needed to go somewhere else to read the piece of paper we walked back to the car as Klaus pulled away and we were safe on the high way I pulled out the piece of paper and read it

If you have found this note then I guess you are looking for the stone, well as you can guess I have beaten you to it and I have taken the stone. If you are a Calvin and you are reading this then you are too late and you will never get your hands on the stone. However if you are a Forbes then I can give you some clues as to where I have taken the stone, first of all I moved the stone because I believe that it is unsafe in its current location, I have moved it to somewhere that is right under everybody's nose you just have to think about it I can tell you that it is in Mystic Falls where all of this began and where all the Forbes in history have been drawn to. I beg you that you do not go looking for the stone and that you destroy this letter.

C.M.F

I read the note aloud and turned towards Klaus after I had finished reading it

'What does it mean?'

'It means that one of your relatives has moved the stone to a new location because they didn't like the idea of leaving the stone in a place that was easy to access, it also means that the stone has been under our nose the whole time and we still have no idea where it is'

'Do you know who this C.M.F is?'

'The name means nothing to me, but I have met a lot of people in my time'

'So we are back to square one and we have no idea if Elena and the others have more information than us, all we know is the ghost they released are my families enemy and they are after the stone to'

I dropped my hands back down on my legs and let out a frustrated sigh. I was too frustrated to make conversation on the way back home and as soon as we got home I headed straight to our room and got into bed, everything was getting on top of me and I just wanted to sleep.

I was awoken by someone kissing my forehead

'Caroline wake up my love'

'Huh…what's the matter? What's going on?'

'Nothing's the matter, get dressed we're going somewhere'

'Where are we going?'

'You'll see'

He left the room and I could hear him talking to people, I got dressed and made my way downstairs to find him on the phone to someone

'Is everything ready? Good'

He shut the phone and turned to me, he grabbed my hand and led me out to the car, he drove through the streets and I could tell that it was early morning since there was a little light and nobody on the streets, we ended up at the airport but at a private plane, Klaus took my hand and led me up the steps when we entered the plane I noticed that it was split into two I looked at Klaus with a questioning look on my face and Klaus split into a wide grin

'What's going on here?'

'We're getting married'

'On a plane?'

'No we just need it to get to our destination, if you go through there you will find some people who are ready to help you get ready, go we only have a few hours'

He pushed me through the door and I found three women waiting on the other side I turned around to find Klaus closing the door behind him and he left

'Hello Miss Forbes we are here to help you get ready for your big day, if you will go to Danniella she will help you with your hair whilst Rachel will help you with your make-up my name is Megan and I am going to help you get into your dress when the other two are done.'

I nodded and made my way to Danniella whilst she did my hair and Megan began on my make-up, when I was ready my hair was up and it had diamonds woven into the braided bun my make-up was soft I was in my dress and sitting waiting to land when the realisation hit me, I was getting married, the next time I'm in Mystic Falls I'm going to be Mrs Mikaelson, the only downside was that nobody could know about it. We landed and I made my way to Klaus who was already outside standing by the Limo that was waiting for us he broke into a wide smile as he saw me walking down the steps towards him, he held out his hand to me and I took it as I walked down the last few steps

'You look absolutely beautiful' I could feel myself blush as I broke into a smile

'Where are we?' I looked around to see if I could find some clues as to where we were and I couldn't find any

'It's a surprise, shall we?' He opened the car door and I slid in we drove through streets and through villages until I understood where we were when the limo came to a halt. We walked into a garden that had an Alter at one end the alter was woven with flowers of the most fabulous colours and in the distance I could see the Eiffel Tower and the setting sun making the sky and red and orange colour, it was a scene from a fairy tale. It was my fairy tale.
