I do not own Vampire Diaries. But I hope you enjoy.

Chapter Thirty-Eight: A Path of Death

Mayrah's P.O.V –

Me and Caroline had two day, two more days of pretending like I didn't know who Elijah or Alaric were to me and two days to hunt down Mikael and kill him before he could destroy our family.

We took them out one by one. Genevieve was first, the witch that killed Bonnie – that was up to me and I sure loved haunting her, her poor mind eventually snapped but we couldn't have her getting away and finding a new body to take a hold of so we looked her up in a trunk that allowed nobody but me to open it, no magic and no magic out she would be trapped in there forever, slowly getting old but never dying.

"Do you think I went to far?" I questioned Caroline conscious of the fact this I didn't want to become evil. "Mayrah loo what she has done not just to Bonnie but to everyone she has ever met." I nodded my punishment may be harsh, but she could not be allowed to wreak havoc upon this world.

Lucien was next, he was the on to kill my son and for that he would most dearly – the look of panic in his eyes as I loomed over him was almost worth this as much as I wanted to hurt him badly I was taught never to play with my food, so I lodged a stake into his chest as watch gleefully as he died. Nobody hurt my children.

Tristen was Caroline's – she hunted him, made him feel secure before she would jump out and watched as he tried to run from her, eventually she grew tiered of the game and ripped out his heart before sending it to aurora in a box.

Aurora as crazy as she was tried to come after us, but she was against two original vampires it was almost too easy as we ripped of her head – we chucked her head into a fire and watched her burn. Four down and one to go.

"We are coming for you Mikael…." I whispered to the sky we only had 2 hours to kill him or all our murdering would be for nought.

I would like to say it was easy to kill him but that would be a lie he fought tirelessly and for one moment I fought he would win before I cut off him arm with one lucky swoop – it was much easier to kill him after that, we cut him into six separate pieces before we locked them in magical vaults and placed them in different parts of the world.

Our family was safe maybe it was wrong to murder those that came between their safety but I couldn't think like that as I pulled my child into a hug and was kissed most passionately by Elijah. For the first time in twenty-three years we were going to be together.
