"You look surprised to see me. So it wasn´t you who removed the dagger from my chest" Elijah said while he wiped his bloody hand with a handkerchief.

"You look like you could do with a drink. And we have a lot to discuss, so shall we?" Klaus motioned him to follow.

Elijah glared at him and threw his handkerchief to the ground. He rushed over to Klaus, punched him, and threw him into one of the doors causing the wood and the glass to break.

"Easy. I just finished renovating." Klaus sneered. He got up and rushed over to Elijah grabbed him and threw him against one of the tables.

"You know you have every right to be mad at me. But I kept my word; I reunited you with our family" Klaus huffed. Elijah rushed over to him and punched him again knocking him into the room with the coffins. Klaus opened one of the coffins and grabbed a dagger from one of his sibling's bodies. He grabbed Elijah and slammed him onto another coffin, holding the dagger above his chest

"Don`t make me do this to you again Elijah" Klaus threatened.

"Come on. Use it. I dare you. You`ll have Kol to deal with" Elijah said.

"Mikael is dead" Klaus suddenly said.

"What did you say?" Elijah frowned.

"I killed him. With his own weapon. He`s gone Elijah. Forever" Klaus said.

"Why do our family remain in this coffins?" Elijah asked. "Finn for over 900 years, Kol for over a century."

"Because of Stefan Salvatore" Klaus replied. "He holds the one thing keeping me from freeing them. There are things that you do not know about our past, Elijah. Our mother`s death. Things I never wanted you to know but I`m ready to tell you now. I only ask that you remember the oath of loyalty you`ve once swore to me." Klaus dipped the dagger into a container of white oak ash and walked over to Kol's coffin.

"What are you doing?" Elijah said as he watched Klaus dagger Kol once more.

"Always and forever. I need you to stand by my side. Be my brother! Help me destroy Stefan and I promise you our family will be whole again" Klaus looked at him closing Kol's coffin. "I can also promise you something else. The gypsy." Elijah looked at Klaus uncomfortably.

"Don't pretend you didn't know she was alive" Klaus smiled. "You knew she would survive."

"Leave her out of this Niklaus" Elijah spoke.

"Oh she's already involved brother" Klaus replied.


"So you`re the prime suspect, huh?" Damon asked on the phone with Elena. Sheriff Forbes had stopped by the Gilbert house with a the weapon that killed the medical examiner. Elena's prints were found on the stake.

"She doesn`t think that I did it. She`s just trying to find out why somebody used one of my family weapons to kill a council member" Elena told him.

"Well why don`t you just ask Ric if his dirty little doctor had access to the weapons" Damon told her.

"You`re on speaker phone, dick" Alaric snapped.

"I`m just saying, first suspect she`s the right one. Don`t get so defensive" Damon complained.

"Brian Walters was killed days ago, right? I didn`t show Meredith this stuff until last night!" Alaric told him.

"It wasn`t Meredith" Elena huffed.

But Brian Walters was her ex-boyfriend and Ric saw them fighting that night" Damon protested.

"It`s not Meredith! Okay? I refuse to believe that your luck with women is that tragic" Elena told Alaric.

"Who else knows about your secret little slayer stash?" Damon asked Alaric.

"A dozen. Got weapons everywhere, here, the school, my loft, your car" Alaric replied.

"It's Klaus, it has to be, he's screwing with us" Damon said.

"What if it was Stefan? He was crazy that night, and you know he was trying to get under Klaus's skin, he was capable of pretty much anything" Elena told him.

"Ahh, makes me nostalgic for the time Stefan was a bunny snacking pacifict, anyway got to go, tomorrow later" Damon said.

"Hey, where are you?" Alaric asked.

"Tea with an old friend" Damon said before hanging up. He looked over and saw Elijah standing waiting for him.

"Elijah, my favorite original, back from the dead. Clean up nice" Damon said.

"You left something, in my jacket pocket" Elijah said pulling out a piece of paper.

"Oh, yeah. Dear Elijah, let's get together, thought of the destruction of your brother, XOXO" Damon said.

"Damon" Elijah finished for him. "Does Dia or Elena know what you did."

"No, they don't know anything" Damon replied.

"Good, I want them kept out of this" Elijah said.

"Agreed. Was I right to undagger you or do we have a problem?" Damon looked at him.

"I'm here, let's talk" Elijah said.

"I'll start with an easy question, any idea what Klaus killing weapon be magically sealed in a mystery coffin." Damon asked.


Dia walked into her kitchen with her headphones in her ears. She walked to her coffee pot and poured herself a mug. She took a sip and went through her mail not even realizing that someone was watching her.


Elijah stood outside Dia's house hidden by some of the bushes. He smiled when he saw Dia. Even though she looked like Marina, he knew she wasn't Marina. For that reason he was drawn to her. She was different, so full of life, not to mention quite beautiful. Now that he was undaggered he could learn more about her. He wanted nothing more than to walk in and talk to her, but he knew she was safer not knowing he was undaggered. Until Klaus was dead, her safety couldn't be compromised.


Dia walked past her door and stopped. She felt chills up her spine and felt as though someone was watching her. She turned and looked outside and saw nothing. She shook the feeling and walked to her counter to finish going through her mail. Her phone began to vibrate. She pulled it out and frowned. She didn't know the number. She pulled out her headphone and answered it.

"Hello?" she said unsure.

"How's my favorite gypsy" Klaus replied.

"What do you want?" Dia snapped.

"Now there love, no need to get snippy with me" Klaus said.

"What do you want Klaus?" Dia huffed. "You have exactly ten seconds before I hang up."

"I'm having a little dinner party tonight with the Salvatore brothers" Klaus told her.

"And that concerns me because?" Dia asked her voice trailing off.

"I just thought you would like to join us" Klaus said.

"Oh I get it, you want me to be collateral" Dia said. "Not interested."

"I'll admit the idea did cross my mind, but honestly I just thought you'd enjoy our discussion considering I'm sure your name will come up" Klaus said. "You never know who will show up either."

"What's that suppose to mean?" Dia frowned.

"You'll find out if you come" Klaus told her.

"Fine" Dia finally gave in.

"Wonderful" Klaus said before hanging up.


Damon stood in Stefan's room as he walked in carrying a drink. Damon had two shirts in his hand.

"Get dressed. We're going out" Damon said holding up the shirts.

"Yeah, sorry, not interested" Stefan said.

"I didn't ask. Elijah and I have scheduled a very old sit down with you and Klaus. I was thinking about the black. Makes you look all villainy" Damon smirked.

"Klaus won't make a deal, Damon" Stefan told him.

"He didn't have to. All we do, is buying a little time to give our wicked witches chance to pop-up the top of the coffin" Damon explained.

"So, that's your...uh...plan? Stall Klaus?" Stefan asked.

"If you didn't go postal on his hybrids than maybe we'd have some options" Damon huffed.

"So you unleash a original to help him out" Stefan stated. "Does Dia know he's out?"

"No, I figured the less she knows the better" Damon said. "Undaggering Elijah was smart, Stefan. You're kidding me? After what Klaus did to him? He's in vengeance mood. It's perfect."

"There's nothing smart... about trusting Elijah, Damon. He screwed us over the last time as he promised us to kill Klaus" Stefan said.

"Yeah, the way you been acting I trust him about this as much as I trust you" Damon told him.

"Hm well I guess that goes both ways, doesn't it?" Stefan smirked taking a sip of his drink

"Oh yes this is about me, kissing Elena. Just remember; if it wasn't for Klaus, you have never become such a dick and that kiss would never have happened and I would still have a girlfriend. So get ready and get happy. We're going to negotiate a fake truce and I don't want your attitude screwing it up" Damon sneered.


Dia arrived at Klaus's newly renovated mansion. She had to admit she was impressed. The mansion looked incredible from the inside. She didn't know why she was here though. She walked up to the front door and rang the bell. The door opened to reveal Klaus.

"Lydia so wonderful of you to join us" he smirked. Dia rolled her eyes as she walked in.

"Well you didn't give me much of a choice" Dia replied.

"I promise you'll be thankful you came when it's all said and done" Klaus smiled. "Brother why don't you come and say hello to our first guest." Dia frowned at his comment and turned around. She stood in shock as she saw Elijah in front of her. Undaggered. Her eyes went wide and her hear began to race.

"Elijah"

I'm seriously on a roll tonight! I just can't stop! Thanks for all the reviews so far! I know you are all so excited!
