Stefan smirked at her as he walked into the bar passing her, he had obviously heard her and it only added to her annoyance and anxiety that was quickly growing. Turning over her shoulder to watch Frankie drive away, she saw him winking at her from the car. Huffing Antonia put a stray lock of black hair behind her ear as she pushed through the doors that the boys had went merely seconds before.

"Looks familiar doesn't it?" Klaus rhetorically asked Stefan just as Antonia came through, they walked in despite no one being around.

"I can't believe this place is still here" Stefan said looking around coming to stand beside Klaus closer to the middle of the room. Antonia on the other hand stayed close to the door taking in her surroundings. The bar was clearly old as from its ornate woodwork, use of railings and exposed brick that wasn't just for show but had clearly been there for a while. The bar was tastefully dark and obviously held a lot of history within its walls. A door opened from a farther back wall and out emerged a beautiful Black woman who looked no more than forty.

Clipboard in hand she stopped upon seeing the boys, "You've got to be kidding me". The boys' heads both turned to her. Antonia had had her eyes on her since she heard the door open. "the witch" was all that she could think as she raised her chin a little higher.

"So a Hybrid walks into a bar and says to the bartender-"Klaus started his face lighting up at the opportunity to tell a joke being the center of attention.

The woman cut him off, "Stop. You may be invincible, but that doesn't make you funny. I remember you" the woman said walking closer to the boys directing the last bit to Stefan.

"Yeah" Stefan looked at her trying to place her face, "You're Gloria" to which the woman hummed in response. Antonia swallowed but still had yet to move from her spot.

"Shouldn't you be?" Stefan awkwardly asked gesturing with his hands.

"Old and dead? Yes honey, now if I die who's going to run this place?"

"Gloria is a very powerful witch" Klaus informed his vampire companion as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"I can slow the aging down some, herbs and spells but don't worry, it'll catch up to me someday" Gloria said proudly shifting from hip to hip. Antonia shifted too as she made eye contact with Gloria who seemed to be starring right into her soul.

"Antonia why don't you go fix us up a little something from behind the bar" Klaus instructed without turning around. Silently Antonia emerged from the shadows holding eye contact with Gloria until she turned to go to the bar to "fix something up" whatever that meant.

"I'll help" Stefan said following after Antonia as nonchalantly as possible but it was clear he wanted to get away from Gloria, he seemed a little nervous but Antonia wondered what he had to be nervous about. Herself on the other hand was very relieved that Gloria the witch hadn't given her the time of day.

Klaus didn't notice though he was too preoccupied with Gloria and the prospect of fixing his Hybrid issues. "You look ravishing by the way" Klaus said complimented Gloria who immediately stuck her hand out, "Don't" she said.

"I know why you're here" Gloria said sitting down a table, Klaus followed suit, "A Hybrid out to make more Hybrids? That kind of news travels fast"

Antonia couldn't bother to be annoyed that Klaus was showing interest in someone else as she was still fighting to hold onto her confidence and her hope in a good day. She reasoned that he was just trying to butter her up so that Gloria would be more willing to help him. Reaching for a glass on a shelf behind the bar her fingers just grazed the glass. Huffing Antonia felt Stefan behind her reaching around her to get glasses down.

"Thanks" Stefan set them down in front of her as he got the booze out.

"So, what am I doing wrong? I broke the curse" Frustration evident in his voice. The two could clearly over hear the others' conversation and intermediately listened in. At least Antonia wasn't intently listening in human ears and all between the clinking of glasses and ice.

"Obviously you did something wrong, look every spell has a loop hole, but a curse that old... we'd have to contact the witch that created it"

"Well that would be the Original Witch, she's very dead."

"I know and for me to contact her I'll need some help" Gloria said leaning back into her chair beginning to feel more relaxed.

Stefan seemed to be in a haze as Antonia watched him pour so much bourdon into one glass that it started to overflow. Smacking his arm to get him out of his trance Antonia saw what he was so transfixed on; a picture on the back wall of the bar itself of Klaus and Stefan together. It appeared to be from the 1920s. Setting the bottle down with a force Stefan reached forward and snatched the picture off the wall. Grumbling under her breath Antonia poured the very full glass into the others making them all even.

"Bring me Rebekah"

"Rebekah. Rebekah is a bit preoccupied"

"She has what I need. Bring her to me."

Stefan looked so freaked out Antonia was slightly concerned for the jerk for half a second but that quickly faded. "What is this?" Stefan asked loudly interrupting, holding up the picture.

"Well I told you Stefan, Chicago is a magical place" Klaus coolly replied getting up making his way over to the bar.

"But this is me. With you"

"Yes, I know"

"Just get me Rebekah as soon as you can I have inventory to sort" Gloria said completely tired of Stefan and Klaus. And with that she walked away. Stefan stayed glued to Klaus giving him a hard look.

"WHAT IS THIS?" Stefan nearly shouted out of frustration of not knowing anything in regards to the picture in his hand.

"Drink?" Antonia asked holding out glasses to both men trying to diffuse the situation.

"We'll discuss this later, right now we have to go retrieve Rebekah" Klaus said ever so coolly as he took the glass of booze from Antonia downing it setting it down on the bar. Turning Klaus calmly walked out of the bar with a confused and slightly enraged Stefan and trying to stay positive Antonia right behind. One awkward and tension filled car ride back to the warehouse form the other night they all hopped out. Stefan who must have been trying to find his words or at least save crazy face in front of Frankie let Klaus have an ear full as they entered the warehouse.

"This doesn't make any sense why don't I remember you?!" Stefan questioned following after a fast walking Hybrid,

"You said so yourself, that time had a lot of dark holes"

"NO! If you knew me, then why haven't you said anything?"

"I'm a little busy right now. Memory lane will have to wait"

The men were walking fast, Antonia trailed a little behind walking at a normal pace but because they had such raised voices she wasn't missing out on the conversation. She couldn't figure out how Stefan hadn't figured out that he had been compelled to forget, she assume Klaus didn't want people running around the supernatural world spewing that they had been buddy-buddy with them way back when.

"What the hell is going on?" Stefan sneered at Klaus grabbing him by his arm forcing Klaus to stop walking and face him. "ANSWER ME"

"Can you spot yelling please? I'm starting to get a headache…" Antonia asked coming up on them rubbing her temples, she wasn't sure it was from the yelling or the fact that she hadn't had any water yet today regardless she just wanted them to be quiet.

Klaus removed Stefan's hand from his arm touching him as if he was a dirty street dweller. "Let's just say we didn't get off to a brilliant start, to be honest with you I hated you."

"That's understandable" Antonia muttered thinking back to what a jerk he had been to her over the course of the summer. The two men just stared at each other for a moment, making Antonia shift uncomfortably as it was clear they were both remembering something she wasn't.

"Your sister, so I knew another Original Vampire" Stefan seemed so stunned at this new revelation or memory.

"If you can't handle it don't ask" Klaus said striding away to coffins in a semi-circle. Antonia shuddered, knowing full well about Klaus' tendencies to dagger his family and keep them stored up but she had only heard stories from Katherine about it never seen it or truly believed it.

Klaus strode right up to one of the very dusty coffins opening it with a creak and dust puffing in the air. Stefan stood back but curiously looking in. The woman inside was a blonde desiccating beauty, from her dress it was clear she was put down in the middle of the roaring twenties. Klaus' face showed yet hid so much as he reached down and caressed her cheek. Stefan finally found some bravery and walked up to the coffin. Antonia found a crate close by and hopped up on it. Unsure if she should go see the girl too but figured to let them handle what they needed first before she crowded, besides she could see the girl from where she was seated.

"I don't recognize her" Stefan said gazing at the face.

"Now don't tell her that Rebekah's temper's worse than mine" Klaus informed Stefan as he pulled the dagger from her chest. "Time to wake up little sister" A few minutes past with Stefan just pacing in front of the girl's coffin who had yet to awake but Klaus was still in his spot looking at her.

"Any day now Rebekah. She's just being dramatic"

"Where's the bathroom?"

"What?"

"Where's the bathroom?" Antonia repeated, hopping off the crate.

"Over there to the left somewhere" Klaus said unconcerned, rolling her eyes Antonia went off to find it. Making her way to the entrance area Antonia noticed a little hallway to her left. Going down the hallway she realized there a lot of doors and none of them labeled. "Would it kill ya to maybe put up a sign people?" she muttered to herself.

It was a long dimly lit hallway and screamed don't come down me but Antonia really needed to use the bathroom. Opening each one as she went she got to the end of the hallway there was one last door. Turning the handle, she hoped it was the bathroom not a locked room or a closet like the past ten doors had been. Finally, it was the bathroom! Though far from nice and super clean Antonia went in. Doing her business, she washed her hands and fixed her hair and turned to leave. Turning the handle, she pulled on the door but it was a little stuck. "The fuck, this wasn't hard to open coming in, just my luck"

Pulling again it opened a little but was still jammed, Antonia pulled as hard as she could make it, slowly pry from the door frame. It didn't seem like a long time but when Antonia finally managed to get the bathroom door open and got back to where the coffins were Klaus and Stefan were gone but there stood the blonde coffin girl, Rebekah.

"How sweet, Nik left me a snack"

"Uh-"

Rebekah was a blur as she tore into Antonia's neck quickly draining all her blood, her hands wrapping around her waist and neck as her fangs descended into her creamy flesh. A whimper left Antonia's lips as she stood for half a second on her own after Rebekah let go of her standing back letting her collapse onto the floor, eyes rolling back into her head. All Antonia saw with her last seconds of consciousness was perfectly sparkly heels stepping over her.
