I was woken up the next morning by my phone blaring. How I was getting service out here was beyond me.
I saw the caller ID say Damon and I frown before immediately hitting ignore. I then proceeded to turn off my phone before getting up. I was gonna hit town real quick, steal some booze and then drink to my hearts content. I can't get drunk anyways so why not?
Minutes later I was resting against a boulder while drinking out of a jack daniel's bottle. Right now I just needed the alcohol to help take off the edge of my anger. The full moon was tonight and its power was starting to hit me hard. I have to remember to chain up Megan tonight so she doesn't go all crazy Werewolf and try to kill half the people in Mystic Falls.
"Now what's a lovely woman like yourself doing out here drinking alone?" I heard an unfamiliar voice with a strong British accent to it.
I turned to see a man with ash blonde hair, blue eyes, a short scruffy beard, just below 5'11'', wearing jeans, a long sleeve button up collared shirt, and black shoes.
I really wasn't in the mood for people at the moment.
"Why is a stranger trying to know my business?" I questioned back as I took a swig of the bottle.
I heard the man chuckle, "Come on now, love. This shouldn't even be considered a proper drink. And why exactly, are you drinking on a fine day like this?"
I let out a sigh, "Oh what the hell. Let's just say I found out that my so called boyfriend still has deep feelings for a girl that just so happens be his brother's girlfriend. You could say he was using me to get over the fact that she's not his." I informed with bitterness in my voice as I finished the bottle and chucked the bottle at a tree causing it to shatter.
I saw a glint in the man's eyes before giving me a smile and exposing his dimples, "Well that certainly is something to drink for. But may I offer you a real drink, love?" He held out his hand to me and after debating for a few seconds, I took it.
The man let out a smile as he pulled me to my feet, "Can I at least get a name?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Call me Nik, love." Nik said smiling.
"Nice to meet you Nik, I'm Allye." I was a little bit surprised when Nik kissed the top of my hand.
"It's a pleasure, Allye." Wow, talk about old fashion. Not many people do that style of greeting anymore.
Nik and I had made some small talk as we made it to the Grill and nothing else. Just before the door though I could smell him in there. I froze and backed away causing Nik to look back at me.
"What's the matter, love?" He questioned, opening the door slightly.
I saw a glance of Damon at the bar and I could feel the anger returning. My hands clenched into fists and I was focusing on not shifting.
"Sorry, Nik. I can't go in there." With that I quickly got away from the Grill and went anywhere but there.
After walking around Mystic Falls aimlessly trying to control my temper. I finally stopped at an abandon alleyway. I let out a sigh as I felt my anger disappear.
"You know, love. In all honesty I would never had turned my back on someone as beautiful as you." I turned around in alarm to see Nik standing at the back of the alley.
"How did you..?" Alright, now I knew this guy wasn't human.
Nik chuckled and grinned, "You should know who I am, love."
My eyes widen when I realized who was right in front of me.
"Klaus." Klaus' grin turned into a smirk.
"Now that I'm no longer in that human body. I want ask you the same question from last night." I was confused when I suddenly felt myself get pinned to the wall.
Klaus had his hand around my throat and was keeping me to the wall.
"Are you scared of me now?" He whispered and looked into my eyes.
"No." Klaus glared at me like he didn't believe me.
"Liar." He growled out lowly.
"You want to tell if I'm lying? Listen to my heart beat." I informed.
"I'm not scared." After a few seconds Klaus released me.
"You're telling the truth." He stated and I could hear the disbelief in his voice.
"Believe me or not Klaus, I've met someone worse than you. I told you before, I'm done being afraid." With that I turned around to walk away.
"And can I ask whom you met that is worse than me?" He had an edge to his voice like he was afraid of that person I knew who was worse than him. That peaked my curiosity.
"Her name was Kate Argent, a Werewolf hunter. She was the one that started that fire that killed my entire family." I turned my head back to him to show the hatred that burned in my eyes for Kate.
Klaus instantly relaxed and let out a smirk, "That's quite the fire you have in your eyes there, love. But you used past tense, I take it she's dead?" I couldn't hide the smirk that formed on my face.
"I watched my uncle slay that monster. Slitting her throat from ear to ear." I informed.
"I knew there was a reason why you interested me so much when we first met. Under that cool composure, you take joy in killing those who have done you wrong." Klaus said with a smirk.
I turned to face him and crossed my arms, "I'm not the goody-goody two-shoes Werewolf Elena thinks I am. I'm still a Werewolf, a predator, a monster. But believe me when I tell you, I use to be worse."
"Well then, Allye. I have plenty of time before the full moon rises. I'd like to hear your story." Klaus said with a sly smile.
"So you discovered a loophole in the hunter's code that allowed you kill a human without any consequences. Impressive. I take it the hunters didn't like that." Klaus said chuckling and had an impressed smirk on his face.
"They didn't. The code stated I couldn't kill an innocent, so I didn't. I killed any human that committed a crime. Rather it was murder, rape, vandalism, or theft. I'd find them and end them and the hunters couldn't do a thing about it. Thanks to the code their family placed centuries ago." I stated.
We were walking through the forest and I told Klaus pretty much everything.
"Centuries? How long has this code been in place?" Klaus asked curiously.
"For the longest time my family, the Hale's, has had bad blood with a human family, the Argent's. They said it started during the 5th century, when a Hale lost control on a full moon and killed an Argent's entire family. There was one survivor, the husband, he swore he would hunt the beast down and kill it. Since then the Argent's have been training Werewolf hunters and it's been a long family grudge that's been passed down from generation to generation."
"The code wasn't created until the 1400's when a hunter went too far and killed a Hale's lover, a human that did nothing wrong. It caused that one Hale to gather a pack on a full moon and attack the Argent's again. There were heavy casualties on both sides. It finally came to a cease fire when the Alpha of the Hale's and the Head of the Argent's at the time arrived and saw the blood shed. The two created the Hunter's Code, a code that the hunters still follow today. It states that a hunter cannot kill a Werewolf without certain proof that they killed an innocent, a hunter cannot kill any humans associated with the Werewolves, and a hunter cannot kill a Werewolf that is under the age of eighteen. The code has worked since then and there's been less blood shed between the families after it was established. Although the Argent's still follow the Hale's everywhere incase we mess up, and there's still tension between the two families." Klaus had a look of astonishment.
"That is a very long time for a family feud. It's older than I am, and I was born in the 10th century. That hatred is really passed on?" I nodded.
"I can't stand the Argent's, the only one I can tolerate is a young teenager named Allison. That's only because for the first time in over a millennia she refused to kill a Werewolf. An Argent refusing to kill the monster that they hated so much, I thought the world was ending." I said chuckling.
"And your hatred grew after Kate." My eyes immediately flashed red hearing her name.
"Yes, she never told us she was an Argent until the day of the fire. She only knew where we live because she got my brother to fall in love with her. She manipulated him and my entire family thinking she was good. Then she stabbed us in the back and broke the code entirely that day. There were people in my family that were human, my family never killed an innocent, there were even children inside that house on that day! One of them was my little sister who was only ten years old, she didn't even have her powers yet!" I started to yell and my eyes were glowing red. I let out a deep breath and started to calm down. The full moon was getting closer, I could feel it.
"It looks like we're not so different after all. I too lost a younger sibling a long time ago. He was too young to die, much like your sister." Klaus had a look of pain, guilt, and understanding on his face.
"Humans are the ones that call us monsters, but they really don't see that they're monsters themselves." I muttered under my breath.
I heard Klaus scoff, "Now that speaks truth." A moment of silence was between us until Klaus spoke.
"The sun's starting to set. Don't you have a young Werewolf to monitor?" That's right, I almost forgot about Megan.
"Yeah, I'm gonna have to lock her up so she won't cause any trouble." I said sighing.
I went to walk away when Klaus quickly pulled me back and he stared into my eyes.
"I hate to do this Allye, but this is for your own safety. You will not come near the ritual tonight. You will stay with Megan tonight to make sure she won't get loose. And you won't remember that I compelled you."
I blinked my eyes and I saw Klaus was gone. Then I remember Megan, I had to get to her quick before the full moon did.
"Allye, come on let me go. I promise I won't hurt anyone." Megan begged as she struggled against the chains. She was all wolfed out from the full moon and desperately trying to get me to let her go.
"I've heard that one before." I said nonchalantly, sitting on a chair across from her reading a magazine.
"Let me go!" She growled out and snapped on the chains but they didn't budge.
"Nice try, but I keep telling you. Those chains are infused with wolfsbane. They're not gonna break." I repeated as I flipped to the next page.
After that all that came out of Megan was feral snarls and growls. Oh first full moons were so much fun...note the sarcasm.
That's when I heard a loud howl from outside. It sounded like it was right outside the cellar door.
"I'll be back Megs." All I got back from her was a throated growl.
I opened the cellar door ready for a Werewolf to pounce me but it never happened. I furrowed my eyebrows seeing a wolf in front of me with yellow glowing eyes and a sandy blonde coat.
"What the…?" I muttered. This was clearly the other Werewolf species but they were feral on a full moon. Wanting to kill everything in site.
I suddenly felt a rush of power from the full moon as it's light hit me. I let out a growl as my eyes glowed red. I heard a growl from the other werewolf before it took off. Moonlight also shone where the Werewolf was standing before. Looks like it hit it too, causing it to run off to most likely kill anything in sight.
"Strange…" I snapped my head over to the familiar voice.
"Elijah, but who-"
"Elena undaggered me, and don't worry I'm not here to harm you. Elena informed me that I broke my word to you the moment I conspired against all of your backs." My eyes harden thinking back to that.
"That doesn't explain what you're doing here." I stated, glaring at him.
"I was following Niklaus." My eyes widen, that Werewolf...was Klaus?
"He completed the ritual, then Elena's…" I trailed off as the horror hit me.
"She's still alive. The witch, Bonnie, found a spell that would spare her life and would trigger the curse to be broken. Niklaus has no idea." I let out a sigh of relief knowing Elena was still alive.
"What I want to know is, why Niklaus came here? That was the first thing he did after he shifted. Instead of going off and killing, he went to you. Why?" I was baffled at that.
"How should I know? All I did was talk to him before the full moon came up." I informed.
"Well then, I'll stop with the questions. If you excuse me, I have to cover my brother's tracks." With that Elijah disappeared.
But now I was wondering the same thing, why did Klaus come to see me?
Well that was interesting. We find out how Allye was like after Laura died, and it's not a pretty sight. But why did Klaus visit Allye that night? Stay tune for the next chapter. Until then, see ya! :D
