Why Not #2
A/N: Hey, guys! Sorry for the late update; I just want to let yall know that I have no writing and posting schedule. I am in school, so I try to write when I'm free and post whenever I'm done. Also, re-reading the story, I saw how some people might get confused, so some extra background stuff will be in the notes. Anyway, thanks for your patience. Enjoy the story!
*Disclaimer all characters belong to either The Vampire Diaries or Teen Wolf
"I'm gonna FUCKING kill him!"
(Lydia's POV): Lydia let out a sigh. She knew this was gonna happen; after years of dealing with Caroline's daily outbreaks over simple things, she was gonna act even more rash considering what's happening to her brother. If there's one thing you know about Caroline Forbes, it's that you don't mess with the people she loves; even as a child, she remembers grainy memories of a little blonde girl punching Jason Greenberg in the face after making fun of Stiles' name. Coach thought it was so funny that Caroline, who was 2 years younger than him, made him cry that he continues to pick on Greenberg.
"No one could have realized what was happening, Caroline. When we did find out, we did everything we could to save him. We still are!" she exclaimed.
"Then why didn't y'all tell me sooner."
"Why the hell did y'all wait until he's in a FUCKING MENTAL HOUSE, "Caroline screamed, then proceeded to start crying again.
Lydia looked down guiltily, then looked at her friend's face, eyes glistening "honestly," she said in a hoarse voice, "We just didn't know-how. I mean, how do you tell your best friend that her brother is being possessed by an evil fox spirit and trying to kill people? And Scott wasn't much better. He kept blaming himself, saying that he dragged Stiles into this."
Caroline looked away, trying to calm her racing thoughts as silence fell over. Breaking it, she said, "I'm sorry... I... I just don't know how to process this, I knew something was wrong when he didn't call, but I... I didn't think anything of it. I got so engrossed in the drama here that I didn't" her voice broke "That I forgot him, I forgot my own brother when he really needed me when-"
"Don't say things like that." Lydia interrupted. "I know what you're trying to do. You're trying to blame yourself. When the only people at fault are Scott and me."
"No," Caroline replied in a firm voice." None of us is at fault; the only thing you could say is Stiles' loyalty; he would follow you guys to the ends of the world with no regard to himself, now is not the time to be blaming. Now we need to figure out how to save my brother" Caroline looked her straight in the eye with her iconic Stilinski-Forbes smirk. "Right now, we have a 1000-year-old fox to catch, and lucky for us, I just so happen to know a few 1000-year-old beings that might just help us.
(Klaus' POV): After hearing the girl mention a nogitsune, he quickly flashed home to do a little more in-depth research, figuring that Caroline would most likely ask him about it. Though he'd only known only a handful of Kitsune and only briefly read of what a nogitsune was, it was more than most people. As he approached his house, he went straight to his library.
About half an hour later, he heard a car pull up and 1 pair of feet going up the steps.
"So she didn't bring the other girl. She must be trying to hide her; not a surprise seeing as she's hiding the fact that she has a brother as well." He thought to himself.
He was quickly broken from his thoughts by her voice.
"Um, hello. Klaus. Anyone there"
He flashed to the door and opened it.
"Caroline," he purred.
"What a lovely surprise it is to see you," he said with a dimpled smile.
He opened the door wider but did not move.
"Please do come in."
She stared at him for a moment, probably waiting for him to move; seeing that it wasn't gonna happen, she pushed past him and walked automatically to his living room and sat down in the middle of the sofa.
"Although seeing you is always enjoyable, I can't help but ask what this visit is for."
He said, playing dumb as he sat across from her in his armchair. You'd live for 1000 years without knowing that it is always best to be ahead.
"You have been alive for 1000+ years and have been literally everywhere around the world multiple times, so when I ask you something, don't try playing dumb because we both know I'm not."
She said confidently
He chuckled in amusement.
"Of course, love, you have my full attention."
She took a breath then looked straight into his eyes.
"I need your help."
"Well, I figured as much, sweetheart considering your first statement."
At that comment, she blushed, and his dimples grew.
She coughed," right. sorry um, I need everything there is about nogitsunes, and I know that you'll want something in return-"
She took another deep breath.
"-so name your price."
"No." She sucked in a breathe. "First, you're going to tell me your reason for this drop-in, and if I deem it worthy I'll name my price."
She looked furious
"Excellent," he thought.
Note: Caroline and Stiles are twins. Their mom and dad are separated, and Sheriff Forbes changed her name back to her maiden name, Forbes(duh). The timeline is Season 302 of Teen Wolf, and I guess the season after Klaus arrives idk cause there is no way in hell I'm rewatching it! Both Caroline and Stiles are aware of what's going on in each other's lives because they regularly call each other. Lydia can sense vampires because they are dead. The only people who know about Caroline in Beacon Hills are Stiles, Sheriff Stilinski, Scott, Lydia. The only people who know about Stiles in Mystic Falls are Caroline and Sheriff Forbes.
Thanks so much for reading!
