Natali and Kol went to the Grill and they saw Rebekah there sitting at the bar and trying to talk with Matt who was working. They walked towards them and sat next to Rebekah.
- "What are you two doing here?" Rebekah hissed.
- "Why so grumpy?" Kol asked with a smile, "We just came to have a few drinks."
- "You could have a few drinks at home." Rebekah told him.
- "Where are everyone?" Natali asked looking around the Grill, there was just three people besides them and she knew that Grill was always crawling with people.
- "Since you two caused a bloodshed here people are scared to come, especially when they don't know what exactly happened." Rebekah informed them.
- Natali laughs, "Then someone should enlight them."
- "Eighty bodies were found. Eighty!" Rebekah said.
- "You know there are other vampires besides us in this town. Maybe Stefan or Damon killed some of them." Natali said and she raised her eyebrows, "Oh, maybe even Elena."
- "They didn't killed them. You two did and the number will just keep growing." Rebekah said. She knows very well how many people they were able to kill. Even if they are not hungry, they will do it just for fun.
- "We should make it a hundred." Kol remarked, pouring whiskey into their glasses.
- Natali took a sip of her drink before saying, "You know in my town, humans are compelled to not speak with anyone about vampires and to forget about us as soon as they leave the town. They just know about our existence and they are terrified."
- "Then go back there." Rebekah told her.
- Kol sighed, "Ah, sister it's much more fun here. And besides if we go you're going to miss us." he told her.
- "I won't." Rebekah simply replied.
- Kol chuckles, "You will." he told her as the two of them stood up from their chairs and turned around so they can leave.
- "You didn't pay for your drinks." Rebekah told them.
- "I'm sure this can be on the house." Kol said and looked at Matt, "Isn't that right.. Matt?"
- "Yeah, sure." Matt said shooking his head down.
- "What?" Rebekah burst out, "Are you scared of them?"
- "They already killed me once, I don't want to die again." Matt told her.
- "I won't let them do it again." Rebekah assured him.
Natali rolled her eyes and flashed towards the table where one woman was sitting and reading a book. Natali was behind her when she sank her fangs into the back of woman's neck.
- Rebekah jumped from her chair, "What the bloody hell are you doing?" she yelled.
- "Eighty one." Natali told her in amusement after she torn her fangs out of the neck and they flashed out of the Grill.
REBEKAH'S P.O.V:
Rebekah rushed towards the woman whose head fell onto the table and gave her blood, but there was nothing she could do because woman was already dead.
- "If they stay in this town for a little longer there won't be anyone left alive." Rebekah stated, turning towards Matt.
- "So what can we do?" Matt asked her.
- "I'm afraid nothing." Rebekah told him.
- "There must be something." Matt said.
- "There isn't." Rebekah said with a loud voice. She walked back to the bar and sat back on her chair, "And you and your friends better don't get any ideas."
- "Well they already don't like how there is eighty people dead. It's hard to cover vampire attacks." Matt informed her.
- "If they try to go against them, they are just going to end up dead." Rebekah told him before she drinks her wine in one gulp and stood up from her chair.
- "Where are you going?" Matt asked her.
- "I'm going to try and talk with them again." Rebekah told him and walked away.
Kol and Natali came back to the mansion. As Kol reached for the doorknob someone opened doors from the inside before he did. They saw a brunette girl in front of them and they knew she wasn't one of their maids.
- "Who the bloody hell are you?" Natali asked her.
- "Who the hell are you?" Girl returns the question.
- Natali clenched her jaw, "Are you one of Klaus' whores?" she asked grabbing girls arm and forcefully dragging her towards the foyer, while she struggles to free herself from Natali's grip.
- "Better question - What the bloody hell are you doing in our house?" Kol asked her, narrowing his eyes.
- "I, I came here following one of his hybrids." She told them.
- "And where is his hybrid now? Aren't you also one of them?" Natali questioned her, expecting a quick answer.
- "Why did you come here?" Kol asked again.
- "To free me." They heard Klaus voice behind them.
- "Really? We should have dumped him into the ocean again." Natali spoke.
- Klaus grinned, "As I said, I won't be in the box forever."
- "I'll kill your hybrids and then you won't be able to use them to free you again." Natali threatened.
Rebekah walked into the mansion few seconds later and saw angry Klaus in front of her who was looking at her brother and Natali.
In the next moment Klaus flashed towards the two of them and grabbed collar of Kol's t-shirt. He pushed him across the room and turned towards Natali, he screamed in anger and shot forward, but she immediately reacted and give him an aneurysm. Klaus was fighting against it as hard as he could and he managed to punch her in the face just below her eye. Natali stumbled onto the ground along with the girl she was still holding captured.
- "Guys, please, stop!" Rebekah yelled, running towards Natali in attempt to help her.
- "I'm fine, Rebekah." Natali hissed, pushing Rebekah's hand away from her.
Kol lifted himself from the floor and flashed towards Klaus. He viciously kicked Klaus hard in the ribs on his back, making him fall onto the ground and spat out blood. Klaus groaned from the broken rib. Then Kol jumped on top of him and beat his fist into his head while Klaus doubled his efforts to fight. Since Klaus was a hybrid and full of rage he was a little stronger than Kol, enough to toss him a few feet away. Then Klaus rushed at him, but instead of a direct attack he moved to the side at the last second and grabbed his younger brother from behind in a choke hold. They were turned towards Natali and Rebekah, when suddenly Klaus plunged his hand from behind into Kol's chest and ripped his heart out. Natali clenched her jaw, her face becoming even more angry as she started breathing harder. She wanted to rushed towards Klaus, but Rebekah grabbed her hand, to stop her from doing something that could end up in her death, "He will do the same to you." she told her. Natali locked her dark gaze with Klaus and she used her magic to choke him. Klaus was not able to breath, but it all stopped when Natali ripped his heart out as well.
- "He ripped Kol's heart out, that's just too much." Natali exclaimed angrily.
- "And you ripped his you're even now." Rebekah told her.
- "We're not even close to even." Natali hissed.
- "This." Rebekah gestured towards Kol's and Klaus' body on the floor, "Needs to stop! Kol was daggered two times, Klaus was daggered two tim-"
- Natali cut her off, "Look who is on Klaus' side again." she remarked, adding, "Kol was daggered all together for three hundred years, we lost three centuries because of him. And he wanted to dagger him a few times. You should understand that you were daggered, because you wanted to be with Marcel."
- "I'm not on his side." Rebekah hissed, "And don't talk about Marcel again."
- "You're always on his side Rebekah." Natali told her.
- "No! You two just crossed the line." Rebekah shouted.
- Natali rolled her eyes and sighed, "Oh, we all know what is this still about. Just get over it."
- "It's not about Matt." Rebekah yelled, "You two need to make this up with Nik and stop killing everybody in your path."
- "Are you mad?" Natali spat out, "How are we supposed to make things up with him if he doesn't want that?"
- "Well he will need to do the same." Rebekah stated, "I know how many times he tried to kill you and dagger Kol, but this really needs to stop."
- "I'm not sure if it can." Natali told her.
[VALÈNCIA, SPAIN: 1698.]
"They can smell your fear. The only reason that they're here is to wreak havoc."
They went on a killing spear around the city. Two of them compelled one woman to invite them into her house where her family of six members was living. Besides the woman and her husband there were three children, the youngest was around eight years old and their maid was living with them.
Kol's and Natali's clothes was already covered in blood and humans were horrified when they saw them. They started running around the house in every way they saw was possible to run. Natali rolled her eyes and flashed in front of the men, she didn't wait another second to sank her fangs into his neck. As he screamed in pain, trying to push her away all members of the family started screaming as well.
- "Please, just let us live." Woman cried out, as Kol pushed her onto the floor. Kol straddled her, while Natali stood besides them. They've ignored her begging and that she was helplessly trying to free herself from Kol.
- "Where did the children run off?" Natali asked looking around the room.
- "Don't hurt them." Woman begged.
- "She's talking too much, love." Natali told Kol, meeting his gaze.
- "I agree, darling." Kol replied. He looked back at the woman under him and she let out a horrified scream when his vampire features came out. He sank his fangs deep into woman's throat and she passed out not because he drained her but because she probably had a heart attack.
- "Well that was fast." Kol remarked annoyed, lifting himself up.
- Natali chuckles, "There is four of them left." she told him.
- Kol's devilish smirk appeared on his face, "Come out, come out, wherever you are." he yelled playfully.
- "Oh, how we like to play this game." Natali remarked.
Suddenly the maid that was hiding along with the children in the attic felt a gush of wind. She turned around and there they were.
- "The game in which we always win." Kol continued.
The maid stretched out her hands, the children hid behind her while she tried to protect them. Kol and Natali burst out in laugh.
- "She thinks she can protect them." Natali commented looking at the four of them.
- "How stupid are you?" Kol questioned and in the next moment he flashed towards the maid and snapped her neck. Her dead body feel in front of the children who whimpered and cried from fear.
- "The more you resist, the sooner you'll be dead." Kol assured them, as he grabbed the youngest and dragged him away from others.
Natali's eyes trailed over two last living victims of their massacre in front of her. She smiled at them taking a step closer, they couldn't run because they were faced with the wall.
- "Darling, give one to me." Kol spoke standing behind her.
Natali grabbed teenage boy and pushed him into Kol's arms. Then she grabbed teenage girl and turned around towards Kol. She stood behind the girl, Natali's eyes meeting Kol's as her fingers locked around girls throat. At the same time their fangs came forward and as they sank their fangs into the flesh, boy and girl let out a gut wrenching scream, their eyes flew open. They groaned in unison as the pleasure of feeding washed over them. Natali felt that teenage girl was starting to slump against her, her screams faltering as her life began to fade, just like Kol's victim. They released them a second later and as they stepped back, teenagers fell to the ground dead.
Kol flashed over to Natali, he ran his fingers over her lips, claiming the blood that had missed her. He licked his finger, making sure to keep his eyes locked on her own.
- "She's divine." Kol remarked, taking Natali's hand in his own.
- "The fear only makes them taste better." Natali told him and they made their way out of the house.
Later that day Natali and Kol were back home and they were alone. Kol was just finishing his viciously feeding on all of their servants. He dropped the last body onto the ground and spread his hands, smiling in amusement while he was looking at Natali. She leaned against the cupboard, chuckling as she looked at Kol.
- Suddenly Elijah storms into the room, "Forty-six. An entire tenement. Forty-six bodies drained!" he glares at the two of them, clearly upset because of their behavior.
- Blood dipped from Kol's lips, as he looked at his older brother in disbelief, "Nonsense." he paused for a moment, "It was at least sixty." then he smirks before adding, "They neglected to check the attic. Why do people always run to the attic? I mean, it makes no sense!"
- "Kol!" Natali burst out, "Those sixty people were yours doing. I wonder where are mine." she said, smirk appearing on her face.
- "You cloaked them, didn't you?" Kol asked her.
- Elijah was already annoyed so he spoke before Natali or Kol could say anything more, "It is difficult enough to keep our presence in the city a secret without the two of you doing absolutely everything in your power to draw attention to us."
- "We were just having fun, don't be such a dull Elijah." Kol told him, stepping over the dead body he just drained couple of minutes ago.
- Elijah angrily looks over all dead people in the room, "This is your fun?" he asked gesturing with his hands towards the bodies.
- "Relax Elijah. I can cloak all of them if that will make you feel better." Natali told him just before Klaus appeared in the room and flashed over to Natali. He stabbed the stake into her chest, just a few inches from her heart. Natali groaned in pain, as Kol quickly stood up from the chair.
- "Let her go!" Kol demanded coming closer towards them.
- "If she makes just one small movement she is dead." Klaus told him, turning towards Natali he added, "And don't try any magic tricks."
- "Nik!" Kol shouted holding his hand out to grab Klaus', but he moved the stake closer to her heart. She felt like her eyes were at the back of her head, struggling to catch a breath, because if she moved her chest to breathe she could die.
- "Stop! Please." Kol desperately told him.
- Klaus grinned and before he said anything Elijah spoke, "Niklaus, if you kill her Kol is just going to become worse. We don't need that."
- "He wouldn't have a chance to become worse because he will end up in the box." Klaus said clenching his jaw and looking satisfying at Natali who looked half dead.
- "I'll change. Just don't kill her." Kol told him.
- Klaus raised his eyebrows in disbelief, "You won't change and problem is not just in you, she is the same." he said.
- "Give him a chance, Niklaus." Elijah said, trying to convince Klaus to not kill Natali.
Klaus laughs and stabs the stake an inch into Natali's heart. Grey veins started slowly appearing on her arm.
- "No!" Kol screamed angrily, and while Klaus' gaze was turned towards him, Elijah flashed towards Klaus and pushed him away from Natali, then took the stake out of her heart. She put her hand over her heart and her body slowly started falling onto the floor, but Kol cached her.
- Elijah! Klaus growled, "This was my chance to get rid of her."
- "Niklaus, I know you don't really want to get rid of her. You will need her one day and-" Elijah was cut off by Klaus, "I do want her dead. She is powerful than us, there isn't suppose to be anyone more powerful than us on this earth."
- "She is not more powerful than us." Elijah protested.
- "We can't even compel her, that sounds like a power over us to me, Elijah." Klaus told him.
- "Kol, Natali." Elijah turned his attention towards them, "Can you promise you'll control yourself even for a little while?" he asked them nicely.
- "We can try." Natali spoke for both of them.
- "Wonderful. It all can be arranged with talk, you don't need to kill anyone Niklaus." Elijah said.
- "I don't believe them a thing." Klaus hissed and left the room.
Kol sat on the table besides Natali who was sitting on the chair.
- "Next time, Niklaus won't let her live and you know that." Elijah spoke, looking at the two of them.
- "I know Elijah." Kol hissed, "He is itching to kill her since the day one."
Few seconds later Klaus flashed back into the room and pierced Kol's chest with the dagger. Since Elijah wasn't helping him to dagger Kol, he easily fought against Klaus. He grabbed the dagger with his hand and Klaus couldn't stab him through his heart. In the next moment Klaus was flying across the room, he didn't even noticed when Natali said, "Motus."
In the next few days they did managed to control themselves or at least when they were in that city, but there were days when they would go to the near village and slaughter everyone there. Unfortunately Elijah found out about it and they needed to move so Mikael wouldn't track them down.
[THE PRESENT DAY:]
When Kol's heart grow back, he woke up and felt that he was laying on the bed. His eyes immediately looked across the room for Natali, hoping that Klaus didn't get to her after he ripped his heart out.
Natali just exited the bathroom in her underwear and their eyes met.
- "Are you okay?" Kol asked her, moving himself in half laying position.
- Natali smiled, "I'm fine. Who do you think brought you back here?" she asked him, while walking towards the bed to sat next to him.
His mouth stretched into a slight smile and as he leaned closer to her, their lips met for a soft moment.
- "Now we are back in this tiny apartment." Kol remarked, as he leaned back and placed his head onto the pillow.
- "I know. We can buy a bigger one." Natali told him, she laid on one side of her body, her head propped up on her elbow.
- "It doesn't matter. We won't stay here much longer." Kol spoke, turning his head to look at her.
- "Where are we going to go?" Natali asked, staring at her finger while she made circles on his bare chest.
- "I don't know. We have houses all around the world, pick some place." Kol told her.
- "You know I bought a new house few years ago in Sao Paulo." Natali informed him.
- "Then we go there. I wonder how the new house looks like." Kol said.
- "Do you doubt my taste?" Natali asked, turning her gaze towards him as cheeky smile appeared on her face.
- "Hmm, I don't know. I will need to see that house first." Kol told her.
- "Shut up." Natali snapped with a laugh, hitting his chest lightly.
Kol pulled her closer, now her cheek was resting against his chest. His hands tangled in her dark brown almost black hair. She wrapped her arms around his waist and hooked her tight over his hip, squeezing him with all emotions she was feeling. Her eyes drifted closed. As she was falling asleep, she could feel him kissing her head and she fell asleep with a smile on her lips.
