Tyler POV

I leaned against the wall wishing to be out of here, the scent of antiseptic filled my nose as I looked at my phone. There was a bright blue clock resting on the back screen of my phone. There was a picture of my dad's and I at the boardwalk this summer in Cali. The bright green eyes of papa stared back at me.

The sight of him forced guilt to fill my chest. I'm sure that he felt terrible about all of this. Then the clock said 7 am the exact time that I told my mom to be here only she wasn't here. I sighed heavily plopping carefully back onto my bed.

I might have been sitting there for a few minutes or even a few hours. It wasn't until there was a soft knock at the door i snapped up hope. Ignoring the searing pain in my leg and the constant pressure in my head. But when the door opened it wasn't my mother but .

She had a shocked look on her face. I'm sure that she thought that I would have left by now. Looking over to my phone I noticed that it said 9 instead of 7. Men fuck this my dad is going to lose his shit but he is going to get what he wants. Pulling my phone tightly into my grasp I thought about dad's consuming rage.

Hitting my dad's number I listened to the soft rings of the phone. But it felt like ice spikes being jammed in my ears. I moaned out in pain as the golden light of the room forced me to cringe away. I felt moans of pain falling from my lips as I staggered struggling to get back on my feet.

"Easy Tyler you're going to be sensitive to light and sound." I nodded my head slowly letting my hand run over the smooth sheets until my fingers curled around ray bans black sunglasses. As i slid them onto my face. Dad finally answered.

"Ty where the hell are you? I'm at the house and you aren't here. Neither is your mother '' I cringed at the thought of telling him that mom forgot to pick me up but when I spoke I did so with guilt and pain in my voice. "Mom never came to get me could you come pick me up please."

I let my tone grow soft and gently as I heard the low rumbling growl filling my ears. "I'll be there baby boy lay down okay" His gentle tone shocked me, I expected him to flip out but instead his voice was soft. I hope when he got here he would remain that calm.

Niklaus POV

The golden light blinded me as I blinked rapidly. The soft beeps of the heart monitor stopped no longer plaguing my sensitive hearing. I still couldn't believe that bitch didn't show up. How could she forget? How the fuck could she forget? Outrage bubbled in my chest as hate-filled my heart and mind.

"If you would have just made me a hybrid then I wouldn't have a concussion." The soft whining voice of Tyler filled my ears as I looked over to my son, his soft brown eyes shining in the light. He had a frown on his face as he pulled a pair of black ray band shades over his sensitive eyes.

He looked like he was cringing away from the sunlight as his left hand clung to his ribs as he resisted the urge to flinch away from the pain that was bubbling in his body. "Maddox is finding a wolf to turn if he brings back a hybrid then I'm going to turn you but I won't risk your life for a theory how many times do we have to go over this." Agitated, I spoke in a commanding voice.

I let out a frustrated sigh as I started to make my way over to his bed a thick black duffle bag started back at me. Tyler moved his weight to his right foot to reveal the pressure of his left leg. His gray hospital sweatpants stared back at me as he wore one of my loose-fitting sweatshirts. He sniffed the collar breathing in my scent as I curled my hand over the straps of his bag.

"So you said but my head is killing me and I can barely walk on my left leg but I can't even sleep on my chest because of my ribs. My girlfriend dumped me and mom is MIA. I just wanted to be over with please I just want this to be over with. "

I branched away from the pain in his voice as I gave my son a gentle look as I took a deep breath doing my best to quell the rage building in me. "I knew that it would be best for her to give me her rights and this only further proves my point. Tyler you can't seriously think that she knows what is best for you."

Even as I stiffened as he glared at me for a moment even though I couldn't see past his glasses I could tell that hate and annoyance had to burn in his eyes. I don't know how long it would last but after a moment his shoulder dropped and his chest caved in as a heavy sigh rushed out his lips.

"I know that I would be safer with you but you can't be so cold about it. You know that she feels guilty and she wasn't the one that was supposed to be watching me after the full moon that was papa's job."

A heavy frown pulled at my face as I walked over to my son gently running my fingers through his hair as I smiled sadly at him. "Your dad feels terrible for that and you know that he could barely look at either of us when he came here to pick up the blood."

Ty gave me a guilty look as he spoke in a sorry voice, "I know dad and I feel terrible that I even brought it up. I'm just saying that not everyone is perfect and no one can protect me all the time. Not even you, which is why you were supposed to turn me into a hybrid." I let out a heavy sigh of my own as I started to walk towards the doors with Tyler following after me.

"Tyler if you weren't for the fact that you're injured I would put you over my knee for bringing this up again when Maddox gets home with a functioning hybrid who isn't dead then I will turn you but not a moment sooner. Now ask again and I'll shove vampire blood into your system just so that I can put you over my knee."

My tone grew cold and exasperated as I tossed a narrowed look over my shoulder to see Tyler shivering with silent fears. I knew that he hated the belt but it was the only thing that kept him in line. Hell, it was the fear of getting beaten by Michael that forced me to stay in line. The thought force shivered to rush down my spine. The soft beeps and panic scared and cries of people filled my ears as I moved through the hall.

An easy silence passed over me and Tyler as we made our way into the elevator as cheesy music played in the background as the bright gleaming silver walls spun around us. The bright glowing white buttons stared back at me as I hit the black letter G for the ground floor.

"So since I'm leaving with you when do we leave?" I looked over at Tyler. His questioning tone took me by surprise as I watched his eyes shift from the ground to me. A small grimace of pain fell on his face as he leaned against the cool wall. A gasp of pain left his lips as sporadic waves of pain rushed over him as he gripped tightly to his side.

"Why would we be leaving if you have to finish school?" Even as I spoke I leaned into the cool metallic wall. The biting metal didn't bug me as I looked over to my son. He looked conflicted as he stood there mute not sure of what he should say. "Tyler?" He stood there mute not saying a word, his brows furrowed with worry as he slumped against the wall and let out a gasp for real as the cold metal came in contact with his burning hot skin.

"I don't have my girlfriend and as cruel as you were to mom, you are right she can't keep me safe and the rumors have reached the entire town how long until Mikael hears about the son of the hybrid who will come to kill me just to get to you. We both know that I can't stay in this town anymore and it's not like I want to. Why can't we just go back to California."

His weak tone seemed almost desperate to voice his displeasure of being here, only sadness in his eyes told me that there was a part of him that didn't mean all the words that came oozing out of his mouth. The elevator doors opened with the roar of the hospital filled my ears, bringing us back to the real world. He wouldn't let me so much as speak a word as he limped out of the elevated glad to escape the conversation that he started.

I watched him walk away. The soft buzzing off lights of the first floor filled my ears. The sharp dull buzz of the fluorescent light taunted me as I made my way out of the elevator silently. The bloody masses came rushing at me trying to go from one place to the other, manic shouts and utter chaos swirled around me but I could hear the soft whispers of girls and gossiping moms.

"I could understand why the Mayor had an affair with him when a man looked like that it is hard not to sleep with him." The girlish giggles filled the air as I noticed women off to the side quickly averting their gazes. A part of me wished that they didn't know because I did want to protect him from the madness that is the Mikaelson family.

I could see Tyler raven hair shimmering in the morning light as he leaned against the wall for support, he turned back to look at me. I fixed my lips to speak but I noticed a man with black hair and deep blue eyes with alabaster skin staring back at me. He had this smug smile forged fury to bubble in my chest. I pulled my lips into a sneer as a guttural growl built in my chest but I didn't say a word because my phone started to ring.

I looked over at Tyler, his gaze narrowed as he held his hand out like he knew that I would take the call instead of dealing with the Salvatore boy and to be honest I was jumping to my feet each time that Maddox called me. Taking a deep breath I pulled my phone from one pocket with my left hand while my right tossed him my keys. Looking at my phone a small smile pulled at my lips as I noticed the shining blue eyes of my love.

Hitting the bright green button I placed the phone to my ears as I watched my son walk off his chin jutting out a different look in his eyes as he hobbled over to the car. "My love please tell me that this worked." Even as I said the words I could hear the angry growl that filled my ears from the other line as I watched Tyler.

"You have 30 hybrids at your disposal. We will be back in a few hours, shows our boy." His tone turned soft and gentle as I grinned at him. Maddox has been there for Tyler since he was 5. Hell, I don't think that I would have made it this far without my Maddox's and I didn't know what I would do if anything ever happened to him. "Impatient and lazy but now that I know that it works then I will turn him. I'm about to take him home. I will call you later tonight when the deed is done."

My voice turned cold as I watched Tyler only for a moment as he leaned against the passenger door as he glared coldly at Damon the two looked in a heated argument that forced my own parental worry and rage to fill my chest. "I love you Niklaus' ' His tone was smooth and warm as I could feel a warmth spreading throughout my body as my heart fluttered with excitement. "I love you Maddox '' Even as I said the words I could see the devious look on Damon's face like something sparked in his blue eyes.

Tyler POV

I turned to glare at Damon. The cool metal of the door helped put me at ease as I used the car for support. My whole body felt on fire and my mind pulsed as blood rushed through my ears. The harsh thumping that assaulted my senses was impossible no matter how hard that I tried I couldn't keep my mind right. My legs shook with pain, all I wanted was to cuddle on the couch with my dad.

"Do you think that I'm buying this whole, my father isn't the bad guy and you don't have to worry about watching your back?" His tone was chilling and sarcastic, as he glared at me with venom filling his blue eyes.

"If I had it my way we wouldn't even still be in this town, believe what you want but lay another hand on me I won't beg for your life a second time. At that point, you just didn't learn your lesson." My throat felt contrast as a murderous growl rumbled in my chest. A wicked smile pulled at Damon's lips as he walked closer to me forcing me against the car door.

"You know if you are going to talk tough then you shouldn't show your weakness, innocent people died because of your father's stupid little curse Elana died and now he is going to pay for it. Leave now Tyler and I might let you live for Elana's sake she is naive enough to believe the lies that you told. I'm not so stupid."

"Tyler got in the car!" The call came to an end and my father filled my ears as a piercing gaze ripped through my body as I glared back at Damon simply nodding my head. As I slowly nodded my head I lowered myself carefully onto my leather seats.

"I'm only going to say this once Damon touches my son, or goes near my son. I won't kill you. I'll kill Elana, Steafan, and everyone that you have ever loved. You will live out entirely on your own wishing for death." His menacing voice filled my ears as he made his way over to the driver's side door dropping mutely into his seat.

"Maddox said it worked. I'll turn you when we get home but let me make this clear, being a hybrid won't make you invincible. You know that right?" His tone soft and worried as his head lolled to see as we stopped at a red light I could see the anxiety plaguing his rigid form.

Nodding my head numbly, a tired yawn ripped through me forced aching forming as my chest expanded a little too much. I gave out a slight groan of pain as I looked over to my father, his stoic blue eyes were wet with emotions.

"Yeah, dad I know that you're going to be there when I wake upright." I knew that it was childish and stupid but it scared me to think that I woudl wake up a hybrid and he would be gone that he would think that I'm flawed like Mikeal did to him.

"Sweet boy I don't plan on leaving okay there is nothing for you to worry about but let me make this clear. Finishing school here is not an option is that understood? Your whole life is here. I'm not going to uproot that, at least not until you graduate high school. You will also stay out of any upcoming fight. I want you to have a normal life free of this curse is that understood."

Even as he spoke the words I could hear how commanding his tone was as his gaze went from soft and gentle to stern and commanding. I knew that he was worried about my safety with Mikeal still on the loose and that it wasn't going to change any time soon but still it would have put him at ease to know that I was safe. "Sure how many hybrids did papa make?" My tone is casual as I stared out the window watching the town move by in slow motion.

The warmth of the golden sun loomed over me as I felt my lids falling heavily as my mind began to grow fuzzy and heavy. "30 or so, hey Ty you know that you can't sleep" I could hear his words and the soft tearing of flesh as the warmth of blood filled my mouth. "Come on little wolf drink." My father's soft and gentle as my mind began to fade I gulped down some of his blood then everything went black.

When I woke up I could feel my father's chest at my back and the warmth of his body and my stuffed wolf tucked under my arms brought me back to reality. When I slowly opened my eyes as I looked up to see my father he had a square crystal glass resting in his hand as he handed it off to me. His lips pressed firmly against my temple as he murmured against my forehead. "Go on, drink, you will be fine."

My tongue felt hot and heavy, it felt like my throat was on fire, my mind raced as a burning searing hunger filled my chest and manic energy rushed over me. My body no longer ached and groaned with random little pains here or there. I felt almost at ease as I took the cup with a shaking right hand. The thick red liquid stared back at me and the sight of the blood almost overwhelmed.

Taking in a deep breath I guzzled the blood down. A new sense of purpose rushed through me. I felt a magical theater begin to form between me and my father. "I release you from your sire bond." His words were low as he muttered the words into my ears. A strong snapping of the chord filled my ears as I clutched Wolf tightly to my chest and began to hide my face in the soft warmth of my father.

The soft steady beat of his heart helped to put me at ease as my whole body started to grow heavy and I could barely think. "No thank you, no great appreciation for your father. You are a cheeky little brat."

His tone was good-natured and joking as I let out a tired yawn and used my right hand to hand off the cup before I balled up the shirt in my grasp pulling him closer to me. as "Love you daddy, thank you"

My tone began to drift with ease as I felt my eyes begin to close and for once all felt right in the world. "Well, what do we have here, both my boys on the couch but no room for me I'm hurt." A sloppy smile pulled at my lips as the cunning tone of papa filled my ears.

His short clipped black hair looked glossy in the warm light of the tv as his bright green eyes shined in the light as he bent down on one knee. His lips ghosted my temple as he deepened the kiss before turning to kiss my dad on the lips.

"Gross I'm trying to sleep" A soft whimper filled my ears as he grinned at me. "Your father is right, you are being a bit of a brat and took the thing that I brought you, I'm glad you're not in the hospital gift. I think that I'll return it."

His voice was casual and warm as he ran a tender hand through my dad's hair, a soft smile on his face as he jerked his head over to the steps. "It's in your room you too were so busy with your conversation that you didn't even notice me creeping up behind you."

Even as he said the words dad lets out a short burst of laughter. "I heard you love. I was just too polite to call you out on it. Try to go to bed so you can enjoy your gift later." The love that filled his voice made me think of my summer.

I walked off to the steps but I simply stared at the spiraling stairs, just for a moment I sat at the bottom of the stairs and I knew that dad would have sensed my heightened panic thinking about all of our threats that would kill me.

Spinning sharply on my heels and making my way back to the living room. Dad gave me a sadden expression as if he knew what I was about to ask and he saved me embarrassment from having to admit it. Papa was laying against dad's chest, a weak smile on his face as he took up my spot.

Dad's bright blue eyes were soft and gentle as he spoke in a caring tone "Yes sweet boy I will come up to the room the minute that I and Maddox are done talking, and I will tuck you in bed in a minute."

I felt my face lit up with embarrassment as I tightened my grip on the wolf and spoke in a low mutter. "Can you check under the bed and close to" My tone is a weak whisper as he chuckled gently as he gave me a loving stare.

"Your safe Mikeal won't finds you and I won't let the Salvatores take you. But yes sweet boy I will check the bed and closet as well but first, you have to get upstairs and brush your teeth."

His town gentle and loving like he didn't see me as weak and that revealed me more than I thought after I moment I rushed up the stairs as the soft whisper of my parents filled my ears. But I have this sneaking suspicion that someone was watching us.

Damon POV

A sly smile pulled at my face as I sat just outside the grounds of the Mikaelson home I could see through the large imposing glass window as two men cuddled on the couch Maddox the witch thought to be a friend of the family rested content against Klaus' chest. Tuning in my hearing I listened in as their tender words were exchanged. "You think that the army will be enough? 30 hybrids not including you or Tyler"

Though his words were soft and careful I could see the way that Klaus looked ready to snarl as his lips threatened to curl over his teeth as his steely gaze forced me to sink into my car. "Tyler will not be fighting when things get bad and they will get worse. You are going to take him out of the town and hide it out in California while I finish what we have started. I love you more than life but I will not have you dragging our son into this."

His tone cold and predatory as he looked at Maddox, Klaus's lips were pulled in a grim line giving Maddox a cold stare that told that he meant every word but a part of me could barely believe what he was saying. This is Klaus we are talking about the cared about no one he killed his own family he daggered Elijah. Who knows what would happen to him. But his son is where he crosses his line, not the brother that has loved him for 1,000 years but a whiny 15-year-old brat.

"Nik I love you but if you think that he is just going to let Tyler go that he won't notice that his grandson disappeared do you really think that he is that foolish, that any of us are. The moment he notices that your warlock is gone he will know that you are pulling some and all it takes is for one of your hybrids to be compelled. There will be no safe place for Tyler to hide. Please rethink this plan. I know that you want him to have no part in your schemes but look how that turned out. The Salvatore brat came at him to get to you. They would have killed him, you know it and even if you don't want to admit it, there's no way that you are keeping him from what is coming. I have loved you for 20 years please heed my advice just this once get him prepared while you can."

Love oozed with each placating word that he spoke but Klaus would hear no more of it, "It's because I love you that I haven't lost my temper, I adore our son and will stop at nothing to see him safe putting him in harm's way will be the exact opposite. Now drop it tomorrow is Tyler's game babe, bring Elijah's coffin to put with the others where are the hybrids?"

The tension in the air grew thick even as I sat in the car. I could see the way that their relationship was strained and under Maddox's suggestions, the loving boyfriend act was gone and the protective alpha came out of Klaus. The warlock gave him a sad look before returning his ear just above Klaus's undead heart. "I got here a little bit ahead of them. I got worried when you talked about turning Ty. I wanted to get home before that happened, the other should be here by the morning. Why?"

They killed Jenna, they killed Elana and if not for John then she would have been dead for real or worse a vampire. The thought force hated to bloom in my chest as I knew that I might not be able to get to Klaus but I could take away the one that he loves, I would take Tyler and Maddox like he tried to take away Elana.

"I want two guards on him at all times when leaving the house, take the rest and spread them throughout the town. I want no disturbance at his game. You know how he gets and I made him a spot prince. I know that. He will want out undivided attention at these games. Come join us when Elijah is taken care of. Now come I'm tired I will speak no more of plots and war, not right now" As they both made their way up the steps all I could think is that Klaus would regret all that he has done. I will make sure of it.
