Marcel was coming to the compound and yelled his name after entering the premises. Klaus was there in a matter of seconds.

"What are you doing? You know we have a small baby sleeping in here."

"I'm sorry, Klaus. But this is urgent. We have a real problem in our hands and I came to you before it got really out of hand."

"What is the problem`?" Klaus asked irritated.

"Woman, young vampire who has left bodies throughout the French Quarter. Both locals and tourists. I came to you before I killed her myself."

"Then kill her. What do I care?"

"Well, the thing is that she's been asking about you. She seems to know you. So I came to ask, 'Friend or foe'"

"Who is she? What's her name?" Klaus asked confused and irritated.

"She said her name was Caroline."

Klaus was really shocked to hear her name.

What the hell was going on? Why was she killing in his city and why was she even there looking for him?

"Where is she now?"

They found her at a club in French Quarter. When they entered the club and he found her dancing on the dance floor with a guy, he felt both jealous and overjoyed.

She was really here.

Soon her eyes found his and before he could understand what was going on, she had jumped in his arms with legs curled around his hips and she kissed him passionately. He could feel that something about that kiss was different from the way she had kissed him that day in the woods a year ago. She was different, instead of light colorful clothes she wore revealing clothes, all black.

Then she broke the kiss and looked at him grinning from ear to ear and said "Took you long enough. Where were you?"

He didn't answer her question. Just looked her in the eyes and then a realisation hit him.

"You turned it off." He sighed with disappointment.

"Yes." She answered, still grinning.

Klaus grabbed her legs, pulled them off of him and put her to stand on the floor, also uncurling her hands from his neck.

"Why, Caroline?"

"Why not`? Because it's easier without those messy emotions and feelings. And more fun. This is the new and improved Caroline Forbes 2.0. I came to New Orleans to party with you. Wait, judging by your look, you don't seem to be in a partying mood. Don't tell me, domestic life with Haley and the baby… it's such a burden, isn't it?"

"This has nothing to do with them and everything do with you!" He almost yelled, frustrated and angry. He didn't know what he was suppose to do with the "humanity-free" Caroline. Part of him wanted to let it go and go have a good time with her and just be happy that she was there. But at the same time he didn't like her humanity free. She was different. It WAS her humanity, her light, her essence, that he had fallen for. But the light was gone now, her eyes were dark and she wasn't the same, not at all.

"I take it you are not happy with me now. Why, Klaus`? I thought you wanted me? Well, you can have me now. I'm here to be with you." She grinned.

Klaus thought about it for a second and said, "You want to party, love? Ok, let's leave this dreadful place and I'll take you to somewhere much better".

"Okay, let's go," and she went for the door.

Klaus just sighed as he knew that he was going to regret not sending her home where her friends could deal with her. So he just followed her out the door.

He took her to a bar called Rousseau's that he often visited.

"That's better than that club? I mean it has slow music, not my kind of thing, really."

She was beginning to bolt out the door when Klaus grabbed her wrist.

"Where do you think you are going? I'm not letting you out of my sight. You want to be in my city with me? Have a good time? Then sit down at the bar!"

Caroline just smiled and did what she was told and Klaus sat on a bar stool next to her.

"Camille, darling, could we get two glasses of whiskey please?" he turned to the bartender.

"Hi, Klaus. Yes of course. Who's that pretty girl with you? Special friend?"

"Something like that. Cami meet Caroline, Caroline this is my good friend Camille who likes to be called Cami." Klaus smiled.

"Hi, Camille." Then she just turned away from Camille towards Klaus.

"Is she like your girlfriend now? She fits the profile. Blond, full of life, thinks she's better than you. Just like old Caroline."

By now Camille was pretending not to listen, just poured them their drinks and served them on the counter.

Klaus didn't answer her questions. Instead he asked, "What are you doing here, really Caroline. What happened in Mystic Falls that made you turn off your humanity and run straight to me? Boyfriend troubles?" he asked bitterly.

"Wow, they really haven't called you. I came just after my mother's funeral, after snapping Elena's neck for meddling in my affairs. That girl just has to make everything about her".

Klaus chuckled but then his face went somber, "I'm sorry about your mother. I really am, but you shouldn't have turn it off. It's not you and it's not good for you."

"What's not good for me is listening you whine about me not being what you want me to be. And again I'm not good enough for some guy." Caroline finished her drink with one gulp, " I'm out of here".

And again he grabbed her hand and warned her, "I told you, I'm not letting you out of my sight. You have left bodies up and down the river and I can't have that in my city."

"Well, I had to get your attention."

"And now you have it. What do you really want with me?"

Caroline got really close to him and whispered in his ear seductively, "I told you I want to party with you, fuck you and just have a good time."

It was all he ever wanted but he didn't know what to do as this was not the Caroline he had became to know and love.

"Well, I could always compel her," he thought out loud and Caroline reacted immediately.

"You could. But then you would have the old no-fun, thick-headed Caroline and she would leave you in a second."

"So you are not on vervain`?" Klaus asked.

"No, after you, the originals, left Mystic Falls, we didn't think we needed to. Ok, this conversation is becoming really boring. Can we go now, somewhere with upbeat music where we could dance and stuff."

"Sure, love, why not. I'll give you the best night of your life."

And he did. They visited many bars in the French Quarter and partied hard. So hard that they got back to Mikealsons' home at 8 o'clock in the morning and before Klaus could drag her to his bedroom, they were greeted by Rebekah.

"Niklaus with Caroline Forbes. In new Orleans. Never tought I'd see the day."

"That's you and me both" and Caroline just laughed and laughed at her comment while Klaus remained serious.

Rebekah turned to Klaus, " She turned it off, didn't she?"

Before Klaus could answer, Caroline went closer to her and patted her head, " You are such a little genius, much more than a pretty face," and again Caroline thought herself to be hilarious so she couldn't help but laugh.

"Dear sister, I'm afraid she's not just humanity free but also quite wasted. I'm gonna take her upstairs and we're gonna sleep a little bit."

"Okay, but this is not the time to deal with her problems. We have quite a lot of our own, as you well know"

Klaus ignored and took her to his bedroom to sleep it off. He was gonna be a gentleman and sleep in the other room. But as soon as he had closed the door behind them, she jumped him, starting to kiss him and remove his clothes. He so didn't want to take advantage of her but at the same time he couldn't say no to her.

So they had a morning full of passion and sex. When they were done, she relaxed in his arms.

"Why is it that sex is so much better with humanity turned off," she asked.

"I don't know, maybe it's easier to loosen up and not be so self-aware through-out it all."

"But was it better for you than that day in the woods`?"

He thought it wasn't better here, but better in the woods as she was more herself but didn't want to upset her so he just said that it was different.

So they slept the whole day and only woke up to eat so they joined the family for dinner. It was Hayley with the baby, Elijah, Rebekah and their newly found sister Freya.

"Caroline, I think you know everybody besides my long lost sister Freya at the end of the table on the left. She's a long story."

"Okay, great, can we eat now`?"

Klaus, annoyed, led her to sit on a chair that was free and sat on the other side of it himself.

"So what have you two lovebirds been up to?"

"Well, I came to town, had to get his attention, so I killed some people then he came to the "rescue", we partied some, I met his girlfriend and then I fucked the lights out of him." She said casually like it was no big deal.

"Caroline!" Hayley warned, "We have a child here."

"Oh, I'm sorry, but you have changed. The last time I saw you, you were snapping necks and made puppy eyes at my boyfriend."

"Yes, how is Tyler by the way`?"

"Beats me. I'm not his mother. Or his girlfriend for that matter. You have to call him yourself."

"Ok, guys, enough, let's eat. There are some blood bags for dessert too, my dear" Klaus said, trying to change the subject.

"Blood bags`? Why don't we go out to eat. You know, snatch, eat, erase kind of deal?"

"Because I don't have time. After eating I have to go through the battle plans cause there's actually a huge threat to my daughter and I need to deal with it."

"Okay," Caroline rolled her eyes, clearly bored.

Later that evening, Klaus had made a mistake of leaving her alone for two minutes and then she was gone. So instead of dealing with the threat to his child, he had search the city for her.

"Hey, you're Camille right." Caroline asked the pretty bartender when getting to Rousseau.

"Yes, right"

"Okay, Camille, me and Klaus, we would like to talk to you out in the back. Could you join us`?"

"Sure, I can take a break."

"Great, I'll meet you there".

When Camille got out of the bar she was suddenly grabbed by Caroline who had bitten her wrist and and new pushed her wrist to Camille's mouth. Camille who knew what she was doing tried to fight her off but couldn't so she had to swallow Caroline's blood. Just when Caroline was about to snap her neck, she heard him yell, "Stopp! What are you doing, Caroline`?"

"What you should have done ages ago. Help you girlfriend get stronger, faster."

"Caroline, please, She's not my girlfriend. You have no reason to be jealous of her."

"She's not you girlfriend`? So she means nothing to you. Ok, then."

Although he flashed to her as fast as he could he already heard a snap.

"NO!" He yelled as he pushed Caroline out of the way and caught Camille when her body was falling down.
