Note: Sorry for the long wait. I hope this chapter is worth it.
(Klaus POV)
I was awake, watching Elena trying to stick something between her ankle and the shackle but she wasn't getting anywhere. She managed to get it in before she tried to pry it off, however being human, she hissed in pain. I quickly shut my eyes as she looked cautiously over to me. She sighed with relief before she began fumbling around in my room again.
She stopped at my dresser, picking up a stack of papers… which was attached together with a paper clip. She doesn't know how to do that does she? She bent down and began to click it around in the key hole. I got up and vamped over to her when I heard it click. She gasped in horror and I grabbed her wrist, stared at her ankle before slowly looking up to her face. She struggled before her eyes flashed.
"Stefan and Damon won't let you hurt me Klaus. Just let me go."
"Well you see the problem is that I compelled Damon to keep away from my house so I don't see how they'll help. Stefan is compelled to obey my every command concerning you. So either way I win don't I? Now to deal with you trying to escape… how should I handle it?" She stared at me, horrified. "I know one of Tyler's punishments should do nicely. But which one?"
"Tyler?"
"'Tyler is here but you may only remember that while you are at MY house and when I decide to let you leave, you will forget ENTIRELY where he is. Also you aren't allowed to leave this house without me personally.'" I got an idea, an evil idea. "You have pushed me over the edge with my patience and I shall do the same thing I do to you what I do to my little Tyler." I grabbed my stool before sitting down and pulling her over my lap. She squealed, just like Tyler did but in a more female fashion. "What gets pulled down is up to you sweetheart. Behave through the whole thing and your scotfree." I said, bringing my hand down hard. She yelped, before threatening me with more 'Damon and Stefan' things. I smacked her harder and she stopped before beginning to plead for me to stop.
I just kept going until I heard her begin to cry. "Elena I don't need you leaving yet and I consider you trying to run away from me when I'm not even trying to hurt or kill you. In fact you are worth more to me alive than dead. You can have children now. You'll never have to worry about being turned into a vampire either anymore. I think I did something good for you and all you can think about is running away from me? I am very offended."
"I'm sorry, please stop Klaus. I'm sorry." I nodded. She WAS sorry. I stood up, wrapping an arm around her waist to keep her from falling to the floor, and sat her in the corner on the exact stool I'd been using. "… What are you doing?"
"Shush. Now sit here for as long as this plays and then you may lay on your mat and blankets again and go to sleep. After all you and I will be seeing Tyler today. My room is your room until the end of this week. Every nap Tyler takes, we'll have another friend come in and take some blood so I can make more hybrids. Sound good? Actually you don't have a choice." I put on one of Rebekah's playlists from YouTube on, one of the short 10 minute ones… the others were ranged from half an hour to 5 hours of music, shows, whatever her little heart could think of… Rebekah. I miss her. However I don't need her messing up my plans and THAT is EXACTLY what she would do. I need at least three more weeks to pass before I could possibly be seen by my siblings again. I walked over to my bed and laid under the covers and waited. When it finished Elena ACTUALLY got up and laid down on her mat, covered herself up and went to sleep, so I did too… for at least two more hours before I had to get up myself and get food for me, Elena and Tyler.
(Tyler POV)
I woke up wet for once but I was fine, health wise. Elena was another matter. I was more worried about what Klaus might do to her instead of me. I heard myself whine from my worry. I couldn't stop worrying. The ONLY thing I knew was since Elena could make his hybrids that he wouldn't KILL her. I HATE not knowing. I heard myself whimper and finally decided to do something about it… until Klaus came in.
He picked me up, changed me and carried me to the door way. I followed him downstairs. He placed me in the high chair and gave me a plate of broccoli, celery, and spinach. I rolled my eyes. I knew it was just better to eat what was on the plate than to try to knock it off or refusing to eat it at all. I picked up my fork and began to eat.
"Ty, you can use your hands or fork, your choice." I looked up, and caught my eye on Elena chained to the table. I quickly ate my food and then drank from my sippy cup, blood again, but he also gave me a green one with orange juice. He patted my head, smiling. "Good boy. Daddy's proud of you." He picked me up and carried me to my bathroom again. Am I already having a- WHAT is THAT thing? He set me down on the floor and sat himself up on the edge of the bathtub. "Okay Tyler. That blue thing is a toilet and you are going to get acquainted to it and by Monday you will have learned how to use it. The big bowl is where you sit and the red part is the seat, that you lift up and down. Depending on your habits you will decided whether it needs lifting or not. However if lifted it MUST be put back in it's proper place, which of course, is down. The white part is the lid. That I will request you to put down if you have used the toilet or put it up if you have not. Consider it a flagging point for me. The orange part is called a handle. You pull it down to make it go away, or disappear. However with this one, it will not. Because after all this is a child's toilet. You will learn to use the bigger one eventually but right now you need to learn the basics. Tomorrow you will see how it is done and then I will ask you to repeat to me which part is what and what they do. Am I understood? A simple yes or no is required here."
"Yes." I felt him kiss my cheek before picking me up again.
"Good. Then it's playtime with our favourite friend Elena Petrova." I shoved at his chest, angry he was calling Elena his friend when we both knew what he had her here for. "Shush baby. It's okay. Daddy's here." I growled at him and he only kissed my forehead. I gave in and he sat me down in front of her. "Hmm. Now who is this again?"
"Elena Gilbert."
"Good boy." He kissed my cheek. "Now where is that ball. I was going to let you two play catch." He got up and looked around. "Do you know where it is? Elena?" I got up and walked over to the toy box and took out the ball… I'd played with it earlier. "Good. Behave you two." He stared at Elena for a minute before leaving. I smiled.
"Elena. Are you okay? Has he hurt you?"
"No, I'm fine."
"I bet I could trick Henrietta to taking me to one of the doors, back or front. I mean you won't believe the things I can get them to do." I began to bounce the ball before throwing it at Elena. "CATCH!" I said, warning her just in case. I walked over to the door and opened it. This time Klaus wasn't near here. We were two versus everyone else. "Where's your phone? Call Jeremy."
"I don't have my phone Tyler. Klaus took it away. We're still on the second floor so there'd be no use with the window. Besides, I don't exactly want to try to leave today, not until I can find a way to free you."
"He'd never let me go." I closed the door before looking around the place for any fabrics. I began to point them out to her. "Get those. Tie them together, maybe we can make a rope."
"Well well. You two making trouble?" Jason asked, walking in with Kevin.
"Go away before you get hurt." I told them, blocking their way to Elena.
"Ooh. What are you going to do? Cry?" I snorted.
"You wanna know what I'll do?" They laughed.
"You can't do anything to us or Klaus will beat you like he did when you hit that one kid." I glared at them… before I picked up the basketball and threw it right at Kevin's nose and it began to bleed. "AGH! You- BASTARD!" He tried to jump on me but I dodged him. He snarled before turning on me again.
"Whoa, Kevin. Stop. Klaus won't be happy if you hurt him."
"Well look at what he did to ME!"
"Shut up!" I said throwing something else at him… a block.
I was pounced and I felt Kevin grab my throat. I kicked him in his stomach before scrambling away from him. "TYLER WATCH OUT!" I turned to see Jason jumping at me… or us. But what turned my blood to ice was that there was Klaus AND Henrietta standing there. I quickly crawled my way behind Elena. The next thing I knew Kevin and Jason had been thrown out of the room, my bottom hurt, and I was in the corner. My bottom burned from the contact with the hard stool he had me sitting on.
I began to cry, maybe get his attention on me in a good way? However all he did was snap at me. "I TOLD you to BEHAVE. Instead you start a fight AGAIN? I suppose I can't exactly get rid of that part of you, nor would I want to, but there are times to PICK your battles and times to just QUIT your battles. So cry all you want but you deserve it Tyler. Consider yourself lucky that your not getting the same punishment as them. I'm going to skin them alive, however I won't kill them. I've learned to value my hybrids." I began to sob. He was furious. "Henrietta I think it's been enough time with Elena. Take her back to my room and you know what to do from there." He was standing behind me, arms crossed.
Only when Henrietta came back did he let me out of the corner. However when I first stood up, he grabbed my chin and forced eye contact. "The next time don't expect me to be so lenient. I KNOW that was on purpose. It was NOT a tantrum. Had it been I would have reacted much nicer to your behaviour. Now it's time for lunch. You WILL behave, little boy." I whined and he kissed my cheek. "I love you Tyler but sometimes you just infuriate me. Follow me." I walked after him and Henrietta looked at me with a cross of sympathy and stern. I whined again. I disappointed BOTH of them. I looked at my feet as I walked and soon I was placed in my high chair.
"Sorry Daddy."
"Would you like fish or would you like rice? I forgave you already Tyler." He gave me my plate and a sippy cup, white milk. I sighed. He'd been giving me chocolate milk and I ruined it by fighting with Kevin. I felt horrible. He kissed my cheek and then discreetly put a bowl of ice cream on my table. He smirked at me before moving along quickly.
I finished my meal, beginning to get over earlier and looked up to see that Kevin and Jason wouldn't even look at Klaus, they even sat down the exact opposite of the table end than him. They were scared of him like I was… just for different reasons. Which I should actually be happy about. He'd give me childish punishments and torture them. He said I was special… I just wish it didn't have to be in this way. I yawned and laid my head down. Klaus looked up and motioned to someone and Henrietta picked me up, cradling me. She carried me to my room and laid me under the covers. I laid my head down and she turned off the lights, closing the curtains with her magic.
(Klaus POV)
Now that Ty was out of the room and down for his nap I had an hour to take care of Jason, Kevin, and Elena. Elena had nothing to do with the fight. I just needed her blood for more hybrids and those two needed punishment for DARING to harm Tyler. I waited calmly for them to finish their lunch before roughly grabbing the backs of their necks and dragging them to the room we'd kept Conner in.
"How DARE you harm Tyler." Kevin tried to interrupt but I cut him off. "SHUT UP! I'm talking." I said calmly. "You want a FIGHT?! Fine. I'll give you a fight, such a fight you'll think twice before touching Tyler again!" I vamped over and smashed my fist into Kevin's face, making sure that I never hurt them bad enough to kill them. After this I'd do something MUCH worse to them.
(Elena POV)
I was sitting in Klaus' room while Henrietta had a doctor bleeding out two blood bags from me. I was getting sleepy by the end and she laid me down on my mat and covered me with a bigger blanket than Klaus had given me. I looked around for a phone when she left but I was getting too sleepy to stay up any longer.
(Klaus POV)
They were on the floor, bleeding out now that I was done with them, they would whimper every now and then from the pain, I had used a type of poison on them to keep them weak for the rest of the day. I smiled at them. "Will you ever harm Tyler again?"
"No sir." they said, passing out. My work was done. I listened out for Tyler and heard him moving around in his crib again. I vamped up there before walking into his room.
"Ty Ty ready for more fun?" He nodded and raised his arms. I picked him up and carried him back to the bathroom. I sat him down on the toilet and watched him get adjusted to it. "This is how you sit on the toilet. However your pants will be down and so would your diaper, or pamper as it were. Training pants. I plan to move you to big boy hood as soon as possible. Now I need to do something new. Ready? I need someone to show you how it works." He whined a bit, nervous. I picked him up and carried him over to Henrietta. "Babysitting time. You sure your okay with this?"
"This is what the advice said. Go do your own thing."
"Tyler IS my own thing." I however obeyed and walked away. Maybe I could play with Elena. I walked into Tyler's playroom and began to clean the room. When there was nothing left to clean, his room and his playroom, I left to check on Tyler. He was busy having a bath from Henrietta. "Excuse me that is MY job."
"Hello Master. I'm sorry. I thought I could help you with him and his learning."
"Something went wrong?"
"He refused to let me see him do it."
"You're NOT supposed to watch him use the bathroom. There is parenting and there is being a-" I was silenced with a kiss. "And children are NOT supposed to see that either." I looked at Tyler and he was staring at us. I smiled at him, fondly. He smiled back.
"Tyler out now?"
"Well what do you think Henrietta? Is he clean yet?"
"Yes he is."
"From now leave his learning to me. He was just supposed to watch you. Not both ways." I said, picking Tyler out of the bathtub and drying him off. She'd washed his hair so I wouldn't have to do it myself.
"Is dinner ready yet?" asked Sky.
"Fix it yourself. I haven't gotten around to it yet. I've been busy reprimanding, playing, cleaning, and rewarding everyone."
"By everyone do you mean Elena, Kevin, Jason, and Tyler?"
"Get out!" I said, carrying Tyler to his changing table, buckling him in place. I did my job before noticing that there was a great smell down there. She must have obeyed me. I carried him downstairs and put him in his high chair before taking out apple sauce and some banana slices for him to munch on since I gave him ice cream earlier. This time I gave him white milk instead of chocolate, he still did misbehave himself.
Ty ate most of it but stopped when he yawned and drifted to sleep. I quickly finished my dinner before carrying him to his crib, kissing him goodnight, and winding up his mobile which began 'Hush Little Baby'.
I went to my room and took a bath myself before going to bed. This week I would need all the sleep I could get since he was after all learning to use the toilet instead of the diapers he's been using for so long.
