A/N: I don't have much to say this time around but thank you for the reviews. Now remember Bella is close with Damon and she's getting the tough love act from him, so she's willing to talk to Damon and out of respect she tolerates talking to Alaric. Everyone else is a no go. Also I am a idiot I backed myself into a corner with the Lockwood party nothing was going to happen except meeting people so I'll be brief about it and get to the good stuff.
DISCLAIMER: I do not own twilight or the vampire diaries they each belong to their respective parties. I'm just playing with them.
Chapter 5
Bella pov:
I've been working with Alaric the last few days and I've actually gained some muscle. The Lockwood party was no big deal I just met some of the people Damon hangs out with. Let's just say people were shocked to discover Damon had a goddaughter. I spoke to no one though; I just nodded a lot. Elena seemed like a nice girl, but she rubbed me the wrong way with how she talked to Damon about my being here. After Damon explained my story to her, she softened up a little and invited me to senior prank night with her, which Damon accepted on my behalf. Caroline was full of life kind of like a ball of sunshine. As long as I get that sunshine in small doses we should get along okay. Bonnie was sweet, she reminded me of Angela but with confidence. After that I went home and relaxed.
Damon left with Katherine to get information on how-to take-out Klaus this morning. So here I am sitting in the gym at the high school staring into nothing as usual by myself. I didn't want to come here and do this, but I also didn't want to disappoint Damon. Caroline and Bonnie tried to talk me into helping, but again I don't want to. I've been thinking about him lately. He was kind of possessive and controlling. I'm not too sure how I feel about it.
As I'm sitting there lost in my thoughts, a guy with dirty blonde hair and green eyes steps into my view. I watch as his eyes dilate and he states, "Go home." I quirk an eyebrow then look around and realize everyone has left except Elena and two other kids.
I glance over to Elena when she says "It's okay Bella. Here take my keys and go." I look back and forth between the man and Elena figuring she might be in trouble and decide to wait, so I shake my head no in response. Elena just sighs then tells the man, "Just leave her alone. She won't leave, but she won't get in your way either."
The man just stares at me curiously for a second then leans towards me and inhales deeply. "I smell no vervain on you. Klaus Mikaelson and who might you be?" I just turn back to Elena.
"Her name is Bella Swan. She doesn't talk to anyone except Damon. She also can't be compelled." Elena tells him for me. So, this is the hybrid. I should be scared, but I'm not.
Klaus holds out his hand to help me off my spot on floor. I tilt my head at him in a silent question. "Just call me curious, love." I don't know what possessed me, but I present my scar on my wrist to him. "How did you get this?" He whispers tracing my scar. When I don't respond he rushes over to Elena and the other kids and says something I can't hear. The two kids sit down, and Elena makes her way towards me with Klaus. "How did she get this scar Elena?"
"I'm not sure. All Damon told me was she had a history with cold ones that abandoned her to another cold one with a vendetta against her." She answers.
"Cold ones. Poor excuse for vampires." Just the Bonnie and Matt make their way into the gym.
"Bonnie get out of here." Elena shouts.
"Stay put little swan I'm not done with you." Klaus says to me quietly then flashes in front of Bonnie. "I assume you're the reason Elena is still walking around alive?"
Bonnie looks him dead in the eye, "That's right. If you want to blame someone blame me."
"Oh, there's no need for blame, love. In you keeping Elena alive has cause me a problem. One you are going to fix." Just then Tyler makes his appearance being dragged by a tall blonde girl. "I'd like you all to meet my sister Rebekah. Word of warning she can be quite mean."
"Don't be an ass," Rebekah replies.
"Leave him alone," Elena shouts.
Klaus grabs Tyler by the neck and drags him to the front of the group. "I'm going to make this very simple. Every time I attempt to turn a werewolf into a vampire hybrid, they die during the transition. It's quite horrible actually." Klaus bites his wrist and feeds Tyler his blood. "I need you to find a way to save my hybrids Bonnie, and for Tyler's sake you better hurry." He then snaps Tyler's neck. I don't want anyone to die so I think about it. From what Damon mentioned to me about all of this. It's my understanding Elena should have died in the ritual and since she's not dead. It clicks into to place. While I'm thinking about this everyone is freaking out about Tyler.
"Klaus." I whisper. The two vampire heads snap to mine. In a stronger voice I tell everyone, "I think I know what's wrong."
"Don't get involved Bella. He's dangerous." Elena tells me seriously. Who is she to tell me what to do? I'm trying to help her friend here.
I stand up a little mad, "So you're telling me that, even though there is a chance I can fix this little problem, so everyone goes home safely tonight. You don't want me to try. I may not have been around for all this Elena, but I understand simple logic."
Klaus just smirks at me, "The little swan has claws. Pray tell what it is?"
"It's Elena. She's the reason you can't make hybrids. Use her blood." I state calmly.
"Well that idea has some merit to it. Bonnie go and check your grimoires. I'll hold onto Elena." Bonnie and Matt quickly leave.
Rebekah walks up to Elena, "So this is the latest doppelganger. The original was much prettier."
"Enough Rebekah. Take the wolf boy elsewhere, would you?" Rebekah then grabs Tyler by his hand from his spot on the ground and drags him out. Klaus takes a step towards Elena then tells her, "Just ignore her. Petty little thing." Klaus turns around to face me. "Are you willing to speak now?"
"If it's necessary." I reply.
"Well I do enjoy a good conversation and you sound like you have a very good story to tell."
"Klaus." Some guy walked in and said. He kind of looked like him. It made pain shoot through me and I wrap my arms around myself.
Klaus just smirks over to him. "Come to save your damsel, mate?"
The new guy starts walking slowly towards Klaus and Elena. "I came to ask for your forgiveness and pledge my loyalty."
Wait a second. "Stefan?" I ask.
"Who are you?" Oh yeah Damon never told him about me. I get angry just looking at him for all the pain he has caused Damon.
"I'm Bella. Damon's goddaughter. Speaking of Damon." I walk right over to him and slap him in the face. "That's for making him turn." He looks shocked either that I had the nerve to slap him or I'm important to Damon. I don't know, but man that felt good.
"Little spitfire compared to when I came in here, little swan." Klaus comments from behind me.
"He deserved it. I'll sit back down now." I reply and walk back over to my spot on the ground and sit.
Stefan just ignores me then continues speaking. "Whatever you ask of me I'll do, Klaus."
"Okay let us drink on it. Kill them." Klaus says pointing to the two kids on the ground. Damon has been doing his best to get his brother back. I don't want him to kill anybody. "What are you waiting for?"
"No Stefan. Don't. He's not gonna hurt-" Elena tries to say before Klaus slaps her. That struck a chord with me. Stefan goes to attack Klaus, but obviously being a hybrid has advantages because he already has Stefan by the neck with Stefan pleading for Elena's life. Klaus then compels Stefan to stop fighting.
"All I wanted was your allegiance. Now I'm going to have to take it." Klaus leans in to compel Stefan again but I decide enough is enough.
"Klaus. How bad do you want to know my story?" He turns around and quirks an eyebrow at me.
"Where are you going with this, little swan?"
"The way I see it is, you want someone to stay with you. I can do that. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy seeing you make Stefan miserable. Feel free to hit him again by the way. What I don't want is, for someone's choices to be taken away from them. I have had my fair share of that and wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. Let Stefan go home to Damon, Elena will willingly give you two bags of her blood as a show of thanks, and I will stay with you." I explain. Stefan and Elena are shocked into silence.
"I'm going to need more than two bags for my hybrids if this works." Klaus retorts.
"Then pay her for it. Why go through all this blood shed?"
"Because it's fun."
"You want a fight? I can give you that, too. I do have a cold one after me. Who knows what she has planned for me? If you pay Elena for her blood, she won't fight you for it. Right Elena?" I say looking over to her where she has wide eyes. She just nods her head. I stand, make my way over to Klaus, and hold out my hand to him, "I still want to be able to see Damon, but other than that I'm yours. Do we have a deal?"
"Bella you don't know what you're doing. I know I don't know you, but it's not worth it." Stefan tells me.
I just roll my eyes and inform Klaus, "The Volturi might get involved. A human with knowledge of their existence. They're going to find out about me eventually."
"It has been a while since I've reminded them who's in charge. Why do you have a cold one after you anyway," Klaus inquires.
"I have a mental shield. What Aro would do to get his hands on me?" I taunt.
"Bella, stop talking! Klaus, she's obviously crazy, take me!" Stefan shouts.
I don't know why, but I want to go with Klaus. Damon will get mad at me for doing this, "I can't let Damon lose his brother."
"Just let her do it, Stefan. If she wants to get involved with him so be it. You'll be free to come home with me." Elena begs. Nice to know she cares. Klaus is just watching the three of us with an amused look on his face.
"Both of you shut up. Klaus, deal or no deal?" I ask.
"You are not afraid?" he inquires.
"No. If you wanted me dead, I would be." I reply simply.
"You intrigue me, little swan. You have yourself a deal. After we fix my hybrid problem of course." He reminds me. Just then Bonnie comes in with Tyler and Rebekah in tow and informs Klaus that Elena's blood is the key to his hybrids. Talk about perfect timing. Klaus bends down and grabs one of the cups off the gym floor and walks to Elena and holds out his hand to her, "If you would?" Elena reluctantly gives Klaus her hand and he bites her wrist draining some of her blood into the cup. Klaus then goes to Tyler, "Drink." Tyler hesitantly takes the cup and downs it quickly. Once it's gone his eyes flash yellow. Guess it worked. "Good. Come Elena let's go get me those bags, and you, little swan, owe me a story." I just nod my head and follow him out. Damon is going to kill me.
A/N: So, Bella come out of her shell for Klaus. I think it's time we heard from him don't you. Also, I'm not sure if I want to bring in the wolves later down the line, so suggestions for that are welcome. As always thanks for reading and please review.
