Elena's P.O.V
We were half way back to Mystic Falls. Damon had taken over driving while I had a rest. Katherine slept quietly in the back. It didn't surprise me with how much food she ate. She ate so full that she got tired. Where the hell does it all go? We had only stopped twice. Once to get petrol and the other to get food for all of us. Katherine had eaten cafe food while we had stolen blood bags.
"Why do you think he let them go?" I asked Damon.
"Honestly, I have no clue." He said back to me.
"What if we are walking into a trap? He needs Katherine and we have her. What if it's all just a ploy to get her?" I asked him. These questions had been circling my head throughout the drive back. How did we know what he was up to? We didn't. And the most realistic reason why he let them go was to find us.
"We have to just trust that it isn't. And even if it is, we are all stronger now and there are three vampires and a witch." He said shrugging but I could tell that the thought had been bugging him as well.
"How is that going to help against an immortal who can't be killed?" I asked him.
How did we kill an immortal? With a vampire; it could be killed by a stake through the heart, ripping out the heart, burning in the sunlight. With a werewolf; it was a silver bullet, ripping out the heart. With the originals; it was the white oak stake. There was always a way to kill an immortal... Until now.
"We could always turn him into stone?" He suggested.
... Because that worked out so well before.
Caroline's P.O.V
"You care so much that you didn't even bother to show up before?" I said to him. My voice getting higher. The surprise of seeing him had gone and was now replaced by anger.
"Care, come on. You know I couldn't show up before." He said to me, "he would have killed me."
"And he said that he wouldn't anymore and you knew that. All of a sudden, you show up after how many months? I have to be in danger for you to care." My voice was loud now. I could hear footsteps coming from down the stairs. Oh god, they must have heard me. They needed their sleep. I shouldn't have been so loud.
Anna's mum popped her head from around the corner.
"Is everything okay?" She asked rubbing her eyes tiredly.
Before I could answer, Tyler said to me as he looked me straight in the eyes, "no, you don't have to be in danger for me to come back. You could be dead for all I cared to be honest."
I stood there shocked. My heart felt like it got ripped out of my chest.
"I should have killed you when I had the chance." Klaus said and before I knew it, Tyler was shoved up against the wall. Klaus was breathing down his neck now. Tyler hasn't flinched, there was no sign of fear in his eyes. He smiled at Klaus and I could hear a gasp.
"For an original hybrid, you do not live up to your name." Tyler said to Klaus as Klaus fell to the floor. "Can you really not tell who's Tyler and who's not? Do you even know the meaning of love?" He said laughing coldly at me. I couldn't move. My eyes moved from Klaus and then back to him.
"Silas." I whispered under my breath.
"Took you long enough. Luckily, he's not alive to see his so called true love be with someone else."
"What did you say?" I yelled at him as I chucked him across the room. His whole body went through the wall, leaving a massive hole.
I was about to check if Klaus was okay when he was in front of me. His green eyes were nothing like Stefan's. They were colder, more sinister.
"The last person he saw was you. And you know what you did to him? You were right in front of him just like this." He said as his hand slowly touched my face. "He said how much he loved you and that you and him were never going to be apart again. I almost laughed but I kept a straight face as I ripped his heart out and watched his eyes turn to shock and then there was nothing left in them." I gasped as pain shot through my body. He drove the stake deeper into my body now. The pain seemed unbearable, not just physical but emotional. His cool breath was now next to my ear as he whispered, "you're lucky I'm not here to kill you." And with that he was gone. Not only was he gone but Anna's mum as well. My body was still shaking as I pulled the stake painfully out of my body.
"Caroline!" Klaus called out to me. I could also hear Jeremy's voice as well but none of that mattered. His voice echoed through my head. Tyler couldn't be... I didn't realize I was crying until I felt a cool drop of water run down my cheek.
