Flashback a thousand years ago:

Kol and Caroline see Klaus and Elijah sword fight, "Look, they're fighting again."

Kol and Caroline walk over to them and join Rebekah and Henrik who have come to watch, "Look, our siblings and your wife have come to watch my fast approaching victory."

Klaus holding out his sword, "On the contrary Elijah."

They both continue to fight Klaus bends down and slices Elijah's belt, "They're here to laugh at you."

All the siblings are laughing and Caroline goes over to her husband and kisses him, "Congratulations on your win."

Klaus kisses her again, "What's my prize?"

Caroline smiles up at him and whispers in his ear that she wants to try to have a baby.

Mikael and Esther had been watching the fight when Mikael storms over to Klaus and Elijah and takes Elijah's sword. Mikael hadn't spoken to the newlywed couple since they announced Klaus was courting her, instead he viciously beats up Klaus at every opportunity. "Why don't you show me that move, young warrior,"

Mikael attacks him, Caroline had left Klaus' side and rejoined the siblings when Mikael walked up to them. "Father, we were having fun."

Mikael has the sword down at his side, "We fight for our survival and you have time for fun, teach me, I want to have fun."

Klaus is trying to get out of this without bleeding, "Father, it was nothing."

Mikael attacks Klaus again, he flings Klaus' sword out of his hand and flips him on his back with Mikael's sword at his throat.

Caroline goes to help him but held back by Kol, "You don't want Mikael's wrath on you."

Caroline looks back at him, "Mikael will kill him."

Mikael is leaning down in front of Klaus, "You are foolish and impulsive, my boy, what no more laughter."

Esther finally decides to break it up, "Mikael, that's enough."

Mikael stabs the sword next to Klaus' head, "It's a miracle, you're still alive, Caroline deserves someone better."

Mikael walks away and Kol lets go of Caroline who runs over to Klaus, "Are you ok?"

Klaus getting his breathing under control nods. Caroline runs her hand through his long curly hair, "I love you."

Klaus looks up at her, "I love you too."

Present:

The next morning, Caroline, Rebekah, Davina and a depressed Kol leave to go shopping. Elijah is talking to a still tied up Katherine when his phone rings, Elena is calling him, "Elijah, we have a problem, Klaus is here in Mystic Falls and in the body of Alaric, can we talk?"

Elijah had wanted to spend today taking with Katerina, "Fine, meet me at the Lockwood house."

She's confused about the location but says, "Okay."

Elijah kisses Katherine on the forehead and leaves.

Xxx

Elijah meets Elena at the Lockwood house, "Elijah, is there a reason you wanted to meet here?"

"We needed a quiet place for me to tell you the history of Klaus and the Salvatore house is not quiet."

They go to the door and Carol opens it to leave and Elijah compels her to let them in, she invites them in and then leaves. Elena looks over at Elijah who is straightening his jacket. "How did you know she wasn't on vervain?"

Elijah looks down at his suit. "I'm the one who got her to stop taking it before you all tried to unsuccessfully kill me twice."

Before his siblings came to town, he came here first to see if there really was a doppelgänger and the Salvatore's tried to kill him, then they tried to dagger him which surprised him because he thought Caroline had all the daggers. Elena gives her cell phone to Elijah so that he can trust her, "You are the only one that knows him. What is Klaus going to do next?"

Xxx

Klaus walks into the Mystic Grill and sees Alaric and Damon sitting at the bar talking. "Gentlemen, why so glum?"

Alaric looks over and sees Klaus and glares at him. Damon looks over and standing next to him is a curly dark blonde haired man with light blue eyes wearing jeans and a dark jacket, "Klaus, I presume."

"In the flesh." He looks over at Alaric, "Thanks for the loaner, mate."

Damon getting up, "Is there a reason you stopped by to say hi?"

Klaus looking down at the counter then at Damon, "I'm told you and your brother fancy my doppelgänger just remember, don't do anything you will regret."

Damon lets out a sarcastic chuckle, "I don't suppose I could talk you into a postponement by any chance."

Klaus smiles, Caroline would have a field day with this if she were here. He looks over at Alaric. "He is kidding, right?"

Alaric leaning on the bar, he hates Klaus for using his body and the blonde for tricking him. "No, not really."

Damon is trying to save Elena, he doesn't trust Elijah and he certainly doesn't trust Elena's new friends. "Well, what's one month in the grand scheme of things."

Klaus needs to get back to the apartment and get ready and go over everything with Davina. "Let me make this extremely clear, I have my werewolf, I have my vampire, I have everything. I need the ritual will happen tonight, so if you want to live to see tomorrow, don't screw it up."

Klaus walks away when Damon calls after him, "So if you're here, where is the rest of the psychotic family?"

Klaus let's out a small laugh and turns around, "Don't let my wife and sister hear you say that, they will kill you."

Damon still can't believe there is a woman on this planet that would willingly marry this guy, "Ah, yes, your wife, how does a guy like you get a wife? Something just doesn't add up there, is she compelled to love you."

That's it for Klaus, you do not insult his wife, he sticks his hand in Damon's chest and squeezes his heart, "If you ever make another comment about my wife again, I will kill you, are we clear?"

Damon feels like he is going to die, "Crystal."

Flashback England 1492:

Elijah has long curly brown hair and is wearing a black button up jacket and black pants meets Katherine, who is wearing a purple dress. Katherine is Klaus' birthday present. While Caroline and Klaus are in their bedroom getting ready to meet the doppelgänger "Nik, can you button me up please?"

Klaus wearing a dark blue jacket goes over to his wife who is wearing a light blue dress, "Now, remember my love, I will have to flirt with this doppelgänger and I will be referring to you as my sister."

Klaus finishes buttoning the dress and Caroline turns around, "Ok, I will try to be nice to this one, but if she does a brother thing, can I threaten her?"

Klaus laughs and kisses her forehead, "Fine, but no blood, I need it. I have something for you."

She looks intrigued as Klaus goes over to his nightstand and pulls out a diamond bracelet, "Close your eyes."

Caroline closes her eyes and Klaus puts the diamond bracelet on her wrist, "Open them."

Caroline looks down and sees a diamond infinity bracelet on her wrist, "Nik, it's beautiful, thank you."

"I love you."

Klaus kisses her one last time, "I love you too."

As they're walking down the stairs, Klaus leans into Caroline and says, "It's showtime, my love."

Xxx

Elijah is walking around the party with Katherine, "So where is this mysterious host I have heard so much about?"

Elijah knows Klaus is with Caroline, "Fashionably late, he likes to make an entrance."

When Elijah turns around, he can see Klaus and Caroline come down the stairs, "Here he is."

Katherine turns around and sees Klaus with Caroline walking towards them, "Katerina, may I introduce to you the lord Niklaus and our sister Caroline."

Klaus kisses Katherine's hand, "Niklaus is the name my father gave me, call me Klaus."

He looks at Elijah and Caroline, "Brother, sister, leave us."

Xxx

Elijah takes Caroline's hand and dances with her, "Sister, you have to stop staring."

Caroline still looking at Katerina and Klaus, "I can't help it she actually things she has a shot with the lord Niklaus and she reminds me of Tatia."

Elijah spinning Caroline, "Well then it's a good thing that your lady Caroline and Tatia was five hundred years ago."

Caroline looks at her brother in law and puts her head on his shoulder, "I know my human insecurities come up when I think of someone trying to steal Nik from me and I'm still working on trying to find someone for you."

"No one is going to try to steal Niklaus from you and thank you."

Caroline smiles and kisses Elijah's cheek, "And thank you Elijah, you always make me feel better. I think I'm going to go see how much trouble Rebekah and Kol have gotten themselves into."

As Caroline is leaving Elijah pauses for a second thinks it's probably a good idea to go with Caroline, his siblings get into a lot of trouble especially Kol, "I'll come with you."

Xxx

Present:

Caroline, Rebekah and Davina have dragged Kol to the mall. He has to carry every bag. Kol is complaining, but his complaints are muffled a little by the bags, "I hate shopping with you girls, you always take so long."

Caroline and Rebekah have been ignoring Kol's complains, Davina goes over to her boyfriend and whispers in his ear, "I might buy something for you if you behave."

Kol looks over at Davina and can see her devious look, "I do love presents."

Davina kisses his cheek and goes back to looking at clothes. Caroline is looking through the clothes, "I don't know what to wear to the sacrifice."

Rebekah looks over at her, "I'm making sure I can fight in what I pick, we know both Salvatores' are going to try to stop the ritual."

Davina looks over from a rack of clothes, "Rebekah, how will you feel about Stefan if he tries to stop the ritual, would you stop him before he tries anything?"

Rebekah looks over at her best friend, "I don't know, on one hand Stefan wants to kill one of my brothers and on the other hand, I still love him."

Caroline, Rebekah and Davina finally find outfits that they can fight in but still look beautiful. As they're paying for their things using Klaus' credit card, customers in the store are looking at them and see Kol carrying over a hundred bags.

Xxx

Elijah is standing next to the fireplace and Elena is sitting on the couch, "So everything Katherine told us was true? There really is a whole family of originals. Is Klaus really married?"

Elijah smiles at the naivety of Elena and begins to tell Elena the story of his family well actually the story they believed until 1914 when they met Freya, "My father was a wealthy land owner in a village in Eastern Europe, mother born seven children but the plague killed my older sister. Our parents had heard of the new world and came here to Mystic Falls with a group of people. Caroline was our neighbor, she is like another sister to us."

Elena gets up and is not fully understanding, "So your parents were human?"

"Our whole family and Caroline were our origin as vampires is a long one, just know that we are the oldest vampires in the world, we are the original family from us all vampires are created."

"But Klaus is your brother and you want him dead?"

Elijah doesn't want Klaus dead, what he would like is Freya, his older sister, to be awake and rejoin their family, but he has to wait a couple months for that one.

Xxx

As they're walking out of the store, Kol announces from behind all the bags, "I was promised a present."

Caroline, Rebekah and Davina laugh, they head to Victoria's Secret and go to the lingerie part of the store. "It's so weird shopping for lingerie with you guys knowing this is for my brothers."

Caroline looks over at her best friends, "It's the circle of life."

Rebekah, Davina and Kol, who has moved the bags, so he can see, "Want to explain that to us, sis."

Caroline looking at the lingerie, "We buy this stuff for the guys, which makes them happy, which means less killing so that means every guy Rebekah dates doesn't die immediately."

Rebekah, Davina Kol all look at each other. Davina picks out a black see through halter baby doll top and Caroline picks out a red lace busier. They go to the counter and hand over Klaus' credit card and then they put their two bags on the pile that Kol is carrying, "Are we done yet? I don't think I can carry another bag."

Xxx

Elijah and Elena are walking outside, "Nothing can kill an original, not fire, not the sun, not even a werewolf bite, only the wood from a tree my family burned down centuries ago."

Elena is starting to get it, there was a dagger that her birth father had that they used when they tried to kill Elijah, "The ash for the daggers."

"Yes, the witches won't allow anything to be truly immortal, everything has to have a weakness."

Elena doesn't understand one thing, "If the sun can't kill an original, why is Klaus so obsessed with breaking the sun and the moon curse?"

Elijah smiles, he remembers creating the sun and moon curse "Right, the curse of the sun and moon, it's all so biblical sounding."

Elena sees the smile on Elijah's face, "What's so funny?"

Xxx

Damon, his girlfriend Andy and Alaric go to the apartment which is empty of any originals at the moment. Katherine is still tied to the chair, "What are you doing here?"

Andy comes over to her, "We're here to rescue you."

Alaric invites Damon in. Damon goes over to Katherine, "Those originals sure did a number to you."

Katherine glares at him, "If I could move, I would kill you but I have been compelled to stay here."

Damon laughs and pulls out a little bottle of vervain while Andy and Alaric look through the apartment, "Well, it looks like the whole family is here if all these suitcases are any indication."

Katherine looks at her vervain, "Give it to me."

"There is always a loophole, did they tell you had to do everything they say until the end of time?"

Katherine is annoyed, she is stuck here and her rescuer is not rescuing her, "Untie me and give me the vervain."

Andy looks at Damon while Damon looks at Katherine, "Fine, untie her, it's her funeral when the originals come back and she's not tied to that chair."

After Katherine is untied, Damon throws her the vervain and she drinks it.

Damon glares at Katherine, "You owe me."

Xxx

Flashback England 1492:

Klaus is sitting in his and Caroline's room in front of a fire with Caroline on his lap, she has her head on his shoulder and they're talking when Elijah comes in with a scroll and hands it to Klaus, "Look, a roman parchment."

Both Klaus and Caroline look at the scroll while Elijah stands behind the couple, "I remember sketching this scroll when I was quite blistered from drink."

Caroline remembers when he sketched the scroll, "I know it took me, Rebekah and Kol to get you to bed that night."

Klaus looks over at his wife and kisses her forehead. Elijah looks down at the parchment in his brothers hands, "Your finest work remains your Aztec drawings."

"Not my African drawings, I was quite proud of those."

Caroline smiles and says at the same time as her brother in law, "The Aztec."

Elijah looks over at his sister in law and smiles then at his brother, "Who could resist a shaman."

Klaus laughs and Caroline kisses his neck, he looks over at her and can see that she is tired, "Brother, leave us."

Xxx

Present:

Elena is confused again, "I don't understand Klaus drew the Aztec drawings about the curse."

Elijah looks at her, "Roman scrolls, African tribal sketching and any other culture and country we felt like planting it in."

Elena is still not comprehending this, "Why?"

"The easiest way to discover the existence of a doppelgänger or to get your hands on some long lost moon stone is to have every member of two warring species looking for it?"

"It's not Aztec."

Elijah leans in close to say, "The curse of the sun and the moon is fake, it doesn't exist."

Elijah turns and leaves and then Elena runs after him.

Xxx

Katherine is drinking and dancing when she hears keys in a lock, she stops and goes over to the coffee maker. Klaus comes in and sees Katherine is untied but he smells three new scents, "Who untied you and what have you been doing?"

Katherine looks over at him "I untied them I worked at them and they fell off and I was making coffee, do you want some?"

Klaus vamps over to her and holds her off the ground by the throat and compels her, he sees and smells that she is on vervain and gets so many ideas on how to torture her. "Tell me what you have been doing?"

Katherine is happy she is on vervain, "Making coffee."

Klaus lets her go after Katherine gets her breath back, she turns to leave, "Wait."

She turns back around to Klaus, "Take off your bracelet."

Katherine takes her daylight bracelet off and puts it in Klaus' hand. Klaus looks straight into Katherine's eyes and says, "Now I want you to walk over to the window and stand in the sunlight."

Katherine has two options do what she's told or confess she is on vervain, "But I will burn."

Klaus hears Caroline, Rebekah, Kol and Davina coming up the stairs, "You don't have a choice."

Katherine goes over to the window and the sun is burning her, she is screaming. Klaus picks up the mug and with a satisfied smirk on his face when the others come in to the apartment, "You started torturing Katerina without us."

Klaus looks over at his wife and siblings and witch, "She is trying to pull one over on us."

Kol drops all the shopping bags on the ground and the girls yell at him, "Does it have to do with whoever was here, I smell three different scents, a human, a vampire and vervain."

Caroline, Rebekah and Davina have been sorting the bags "How the hell did Katerina get vervain? Everyone hates her in this town and who would go up against us."

Katherine is still screaming, Davina can take a lot but doesn't like how her family tortures people. "Klaus, can you make her stop screaming?"

Klaus looks over at the witch then at Katherine who is almost about to burst into flames, "Think that's enough."

Katherine vamps over to the corner and starts to heal.

Xxx

Caroline goes over to her husband and kisses him on the cheek, "I missed you and I got you something for after we break the curse."

Klaus turns towards her and puts his arms around his wife's waist and Caroline puts her arms around his neck, "I can't wait."

"So what are we going to do with that one?"

Klaus loves his wife and loves how she will go along with anything, "I was thinking since she's on vervain and since Kol looks like he has been to hell and back, he could use a little fun."

Caroline looks over at Kol, who is laying on the couch, he is still mad that he had to go shopping.

Klaus looks over at his siblings, "She is all yours and the apartment next door is empty, but I have a special job for you, my love."

Rebekah and Kol look at each other and smile, they both hate Katherine, "I'll go get my bat."

Xxx

Caroline looks intrigued, Rebekah goes to get Katherine dragging her by the arm and purposely dragging her through the sun so she screams and out the door to the next apartment.

"So what do you want me to do?"

"I need you to kidnap and turn Elena's aunt, she will be my back up."

Caroline is excited, she wants Klaus to unleash his wolf side almost as much as him, plus like Rebekah, she loves a good kidnapping. "I'll be in and out in minutes plus last night's kidnapping was no fun, I was worried about you the whole time, plus I wanted to kill that witch bitch."

Klaus can see the excitement on his wife's face, "She's at the boarding house, you have already been invited in, just vamp in undetected, grab her, vamp out, feed her blood and kill her."

Caroline untangled herself from her husband and kisses him.

Xxx

Caroline vamps into the boarding house and sees Jenna on the couch, she grabs her by the arm and vamps back out of the house. She takes her to the woods, bites her wrist and shoves it up to Jenna's mouth. Jenna doesn't know what's going on first, she was waiting for Alaric to come back with drinks for them then this blonde girl appeared and now she's in the woods drinking this girl's blood.

After Caroline determines that Jenna has had enough, she removes her wrist when Jenna opens her mouth to speak, Caroline snaps her neck.

She calls Klaus, "What do you want me to do with the body?"

Klaus was checking on how draining Katherine was going when Caroline called, "You can put her in the next apartment, she should be waking up when we are ready."

Caroline vamps back to the apartment and puts Jenna in the corner. She sees that Katherine is hanging from the ceiling with vervain chains and there is a tarp underneath her. She picks up a knife and stabs Katherine in the stomach, "That's for walking in on me and Nik."

Xxx

Elena catches up to Elijah and he explains, "Klaus, Caroline, Rebekah, Kol, and I faked the sun and moon curse dating over a thousand years."

Elena is trying to get all the information, "If there's no curse.."

Elijah interrupts, "There's a curse, just not that one, the real curse is much worse and placed on Klaus himself."

Elena sees no hope in understanding this, "What do you mean?"

Elijah is still walking as he continues, "Klaus, my siblings and Caroline have been trying to break it for the last thousand years, you are his last hope."

"What is this curse?"

Elijah reaches in to his pocket and gives Elena her phone back, "Your phone will not stop its incessant buzzing, answer it."

Stefan is on the other end telling Elena what happened to her aunt Jenna, Elena gets off the phone, "Klaus, Caroline or one of your siblings went after Jenna, I have to find her."

Elijah is a little annoyed he didn't know anyone was going after Jenna, he thought she was good company. "That wasn't part of the day's arrangement."

Elena is getting frustrated, "She's my family, I have to go but I will come back, you have my word."

Elijah is looking Elena straight in the eye, "That doesn't mean anything if you don't live up to it."

Elena runs off and Elijah remembers another memory.

Xxx

Flashback 1492:

Katherine is walking to Klaus room when she gets right outside the door she hears something from inside the room Katherine opens the door and Klaus is in bed with Caroline, "Klaus"

Klaus looks over his shoulder. "Katerina, what are you doing here?"

Katherine is shocked and surprised and taken back, "You promised to spend the day with me."

Klaus looks down at the naked Caroline in their bed, he knows this situation has been hard on her, they both are jealous about each other he looks back at Katherine, "Katerina, I'm busy, go find Elijah."

Klaus turned back to Caroline and starts kissing her passionately, Caroline runs her hands over his naked back. Katherine runs out of the room and finds Elijah in the library talking with Rebekah. Elijah looks over when Katherine comes in, "Katerina, is there something I can help you with?"

Katherine is still in shock from what she just saw, "I just went to Klaus' room and he was in bed with your sister Caroline."

Rebekah let's out a little laugh and Elijah gets up, "Let me take you on a walk."

Xxx

Katherine is running and Elijah is chasing her, "You're supposed to catch me."

Elijah walking towards her, "If I caught you, the game would be over."

Katherine likes Elijah, he's been the nicest to her, "Thank you for entertaining me while Klaus was busy."

"You looked shocked and lonely inside, I took pity on you."

Katherine goes over to the bench in front of them and says, "Klaus promised to spend the day with me, does he sleep with Caroline often?"

Elijah avoids answering the question about Caroline by saying, "Klaus does not live by any rules but his own."

Katherine looking out at the scenery, "He is a charming man hard for any woman to resist I suppose."

Elijah looks down at Katherine and thinks there is more than meet the eye with this one, "And yet." Katherine looks up at Elijah, "I do not know why he calls me, he seems to not care about me at all, none of your siblings seem to care about me at all."

Elijah knows this is true and crosses his arms, "Many a union has been built on much less." Katherine looks up at Elijah with hope in her eyes, "Is it wrong to want more?"

"It's not wrong."

Katherine thinks Elijah is cute but she is being courted by his brother, "True love is not real unless it is returned, do you agree?"

Elijah looks sad as he responds, "I do not believe in love Katerina."

Katherine looks at Elijah's sad face and thinks she choose the wrong brother, "That is too sad for me to believe my lord life is to cruel if we cease to believe in love, why would we want to live?"

Elijah smiles and thinks if Klaus didn't have to kill this girl, then he would have courted her himself, he hears Klaus coming up, "Did I interrupt?"

Katherine gets up and says, "Are you done with Caroline?"

Klaus compels her to forget she ever saw that and they walk away together.

Xxx

Present:

Elena comes back to the Lockwood house and the first thing she says is, "Tell me the real curse."

Elijah and Elena sit down on the couch as Elijah starts explaining, "My family was very close, but my father and Klaus didn't get along when we became vampires, we discovered the truth, Klaus was not my father's son. My mother had been unfaithful many years before and this was her darkest secret. Niklaus was from a different bloodline, of course when my father discovered this, he hunted down and killed my mother's lover and his entire family. Not realizing that he was starting a war between the species the greatest to this day."

Elena is a little confused, "War between the species?"

Elijah is now standing in front of the fireplace and mirror again as he replies to her, "The vampires and the werewolves."

"Klaus' real father was a werewolf, what does that make Klaus a vampire or a werewolf?"

Elijah is watching Elena piece this all together, "He's both."

Elena is shocked, she's never heard of being both species before, "We have to tell the others and what is going to happen tonight?"

"I'm not finished."

Xxx

Davina is sitting at the table reading a grimoire and going over everything for tonight when Klaus comes over to her, "Davina, I don't want you to do the ritual tonight."

Davina looks up confused and questions, "Why?"

"You are as important to Kol as Caroline is to me. Elijah told me that the Salvatore's are going to try to stop the ritual tonight and if something were to happen to you, Kol will kill everyone. So Maddox or Greta will do the spell and you will stay in the woods with Kol, Caroline, Rebekah."

When Davina was growing up, she would always hear stories about the scary psychotic originals that would kill anyone that stood in their way, but once she got to know them and live with them she learned that there not as scary or psychotic as they come off. "Okay Elijah's not waiting with us."

Klaus hears Katherine grunting in pain and hears Kol hitting Katherine with one of his bats from next door. "No, Elijah is going to be with the Salvatore's, he will explain the ritual to them. I need you to stay hidden when they try to stop the ritual, I need you to put a protective circle around us with Elijah in the circle."

Davina looking through her grimoire for protection spells, she has a lot of spells memorized but she likes to refresh and make sure she knows them. "If Elijah's with them, how am I going to get him in the protective circle without getting them in it too?"

Klaus looks down at the little witch, she has helped their family so much over the last two hundred years. "The Salvatore's want me dead and Elijah convinced them that he wants me dead too, so when Elijah is near us, you cast the spell or if everything goes early, put the protective circle when everything goes crazy."

Xxx

Elijah is telling Elena that "As a hybrid, it's an unbalance to nature. The witches found a way to suppress my brother's werewolf side."

Elena can't believe this new curse is so simple, "That's the curse Klaus wants to break?"

Elijah wants to get back to Katerina, "He wants to trigger that part of him that's a werewolf."

Elena can't believe what this guy is willing to do and why his family is helping him. "Klaus is terrible, how does Caroline stay with him and you and your siblings help him?"

Elijah is leaning against the doorway and says, "The story of Caroline and Klaus is a different story and we help because we love him."

Elijah is lying now as he continues on, "But that has changed, he is refusing to let our siblings leave, he must die."

Elena is confident in their plan, "We have a dagger, the one we used on you, we can stop him."

Elijah states, pointing out the obvious to her, "When a werewolf is wounded by silver, it heals. An original can't be killed by anything except white oak ash on a silver dagger, you see the problem now the dagger does not work."

"So Klaus can't be killed."

Elijah is playing the part of angry brother pretty well, "There is one way to kill any supernatural being the servants of nature themselves."

Elena realizing Bonnie is the only way out of this, "A witch if she had enough power, but it would kill her."

Elijah knows this ritual will work and Klaus will become a hybrid. Elena has no choice, her best friend is going to die trying to save her, "What if I told you I knew a witch?"

Elijah looks at her and says, "I would tell you there's one more thing to know."

Xxx

Flashback 1492:

Elijah comes into the room and Klaus is looking at the fire, "The full moon is tomorrow, after all these centuries, it's finally time."

Elijah is putting books down on a table as he replies, "I have been to see the witches, they believe they have found a way to save the doppelgänger."

"What does it matter if she lives or not? She is a means to an end, that is all."

Elijah wants Katerina to live, he has taken an interest in her and says, "She should die for your gain."

Klaus is still staring into the fire as he states, "She is human, her life means nothing."

Elijah is trying to save Katerina as he says, "I beg you to consider this."

Klaus and Elijah meet in the middle of the room, "Are you so foolish as to care for her?"

Elijah looks at his brother and lies, "Of course not."

Klaus knows he's being a hypocrite right now saying this, but Katerina has to die and Elijah can't fall in love with her, "Love is a vampire's greatest weakness and we are not weak, we do not feel, and we do not care."

Elijah looks at his brother's face as he says, "What about your marriage to Caroline? You love her and we did feel once."

Klaus looks over at the door, he can hear Caroline talking with Rebekah and Kol, " Caroline is the exception and that was too many lifetimes ago, tell the witches not to matter, the sacrifice will happen as planned."

Xxx

Present:

Davina choose Greta to do the spell, she knew the Salvatore's are going to try to stop the spell and they would go for the witch first and Caroline wants her dead anyway. Greta is flirting with Klaus when Caroline comes in and says, "We have one baby vampire ready, Katerina is almost drained and I need a shower."

Caroline sees Greta and flashes in front of her and holds her by the neck off the ground, "Why are you here? Stop flirting with my husband, he's mine. How many time do I have to tell you? Maybe I should just start ripping organs out every time you flirt with him."

She sticks her other hand in Greta's chest. Davina is at the table and says, "Caro, she is doing the spell tonight."

Caroline looks confused and looks around, "Why aren't you?"

Klaus goes over to his wife, he doesn't care about Greta, but she's doing the spell tonight and says, "My love, as I told Davina, she is as important to Kol as you are to me and if anything happened to Davina, Kol would kill everyone, not only in this town, but everywhere so she is going to be watching with you guys in the woods. When the Salvatore's come to try and stop the ritual, they are going to go for the witch first, so Greta will do the spell, so if she dies, it won't matter. When the Salvatore's get there, Davina will put a protective circle around us, so they can't hurt us because after the curse is lifted, I will be weak for the first few minutes and I'm guessing that's when they kill try to kill me."

Caroline drops Greta and turns towards Klaus as she is licking some blood off her hand to say, "Be careful, if anything happens to you, I will be the one to kill everyone in this town and everywhere."

Klaus leans his forehead on Caroline's and says, "I will, I'm not going anywhere, I love you."

Caroline smiles, you would think after a thousand years together they would get sick of each, but they still love each other like it was the first day. "I love you too."

Klaus kisses her and Caroline turns to leave when she gets to the doorway of the bedroom she turns around to ask, "Nik, did you find a house?"

Klaus is taking the moonstone from Greta as he replies, "No, all these houses are too small, we're going to have to build our own house."

Xxx

When Elijah and Elena get to the boarding house, they see Stefan and Damon fighting Elijah remembers when Klaus found out Katerina had escaped.

Flashback 1492:

Elijah is reading when Klaus storms into the room, "What have you done?"

He puts his book down as he says, "I do not understand."

Klaus is mad, he has waited five hundred years and says, "Katerina is gone, she has fled."

Elijah getting up and Klaus is right in his face to question him, "What did you tell her?"

Elijah is shocked, he never told Katerina anything about the ritual as he states, "I told her nothing."

Klaus grabs Elijah and pins him next to the fireplace he vamps out, "DO NOT LIE TO ME!"

Caroline, Rebekah and Kol were in the hallway when they heard Klaus yell, they vamp into the room. Caroline and Kol get Klaus off of Elijah and Rebekah makes sure Elijah is okay, "What is going on?"

Klaus is still furious whenever he says, "Katerina has fled."

Elijah's now standing next to Rebekah as he says, "I will find her, you have my word."

Klaus is being held back by Caroline and Kol, "If you do not, I give you my word you will be dead."

Caroline hates the daggers, she has never been daggered but she hates when her family gets daggered, "No one is getting daggered."

Kol looks over at his older brother and says, "I will help you, Elijah, it's been a while since I hunted a human."

Present:

Damon looks at the entrance where Elena and Elijah are to say, "You invited him in."

Elena looks at Damon and says, "Elijah has information we need, Klaus is prepared to break the curse."

"Elena said it was a curse put on Klaus himself."

Elijah remembers Stefan and his love for Rebekah that is why he has saved him so many times since he arrived here. "Klaus is a vampire born of werewolf blood line, the curse has kept his werewolf side from manifesting tonight when he breaks the curse, he will become a true hybrid."

Damon wants Klaus dead as he wonders, "Then why are we letting him break the curse? Kill him now with Bonnie."

Elena doesn't want any more people hurt because of her so says, "That much power would kill Bonnie."

Stefan is getting to the point as he says, "How do we break this curse?"

Elijah was told the witch was dead, "The curse is pretty much straight forward the ingredients you already know."

Stefan wanting to protect Elena. Elijah is happy that his brother is getting his curse lifted that they have spent a thousand years trying to break it, "A witch will channel the power of the full moon to release the spell that's bound to the moonstone after that, Klaus being both vampire and werewolf, will sacrifice one of each."

Elena doesn't want to die but to save everyone she loves she will, "Where do I fit in?"

"The final part of the ritual is Klaus must drink the blood of the doppelgänger to the point of your death."

Elena is scared now and says, "And that is where you come in?"

Elijah pulls out a box from the bookcase and opens it and says, "The elixir that I acquired five hundred years ago for Katerina has mystical properties like resuscitation."

Elena with hesitation in her voice, "So I will be dead."

Elijah knows this will work and says, "And then you won't."

Damon is skeptical as he says, "That's your plan? A magic potion with no expiration date you want to be alive, how about John's ring."

Elijah has had enough of Damon and says, "Those rings only work on humans, a doppelgänger is supernatural, odds are it won't work."

Damon wants to protect Elena and says, "I will take those odds over your elixir, what if it's doesn't work or something goes wrong."

Elena has come to terms with the fact that tonight she will die and may or may not come back and says, "Then I will stay dead."

Damon leaves, he has to go stop a ritual. Elena watches Damon leave and says "Do you know if Klaus has everything he needs?"

Elijah has been getting texts telling him how everything is going, "Klaus has waited a thousand years for this, I can guarantee he has everything."

Caroline comes out of the bedroom in black skinny jeans, a long pink ruffle spaghetti strap tank top with grey sparkle heels and says, "How do I look? Do I look like a hybrid's wife?"

Klaus and Davina look up from the table and Davina says, "You look awesome Caro."

Caroline smiles and says, "Thanks Davina."

Klaus goes over to his wife and spins her into his arms to say, "You are the most beautiful hybrid's wife ever."

Caroline smiles and kisses his neck and says, "When do you have to get the doppelgänger?"

Klaus looks at his phone before saying, "Right now, I will be back."

Klaus kisses Caroline and vamps off.

Elena remembers she forgot something in her car, so she runs out and Klaus is standing in the driveway. "You're Klaus," she says before Klaus smiles at her. "You had me all nervous."

Elena wants this whole thing over so she says, "I'm ready."

Klaus smiles, she might be the slowest doppelgänger he's met but she is the most accepting of her fate, "And here I thought you would put up a fight like Katerina."

Elena glares at him before saying, "I'm not Katherine, let's get this over with."

Klaus looks up at the sky to say, "Patience doppelgänger, it's not time yet."

He grabs her and they vamp away. Stefan comes out just in time to see them vamp off. Stefan goes back in and tells Elijah, "It's time, Klaus took Elena."

Klaus comes back into the apartment and only Davina and Caroline are there. "Has Maddox came back yet?"

Caroline is heading to check on Katherine as she answers, "No, I'm going to be next door, is everything ready?"

Klaus sits down and plugs his phone into the computer, "Yes, very soon I will be a hybrid."

Caroline smiles and kisses him before saying, "Have I told you I'm very proud of you."

"You can tell me how proud you are after I unleash my werewolf side."

Caroline lets out a little giggle, "I will and more," then she vamps next door.

The door opens and Klaus can tell whoever entered is not his family, "I wasn't aware you were invited in."

Damon is standing in the middle of the room whenever he says, "You have to postpone the ritual."

Klaus knows Damon doesn't stand a chance against him or Davina, "I thought we already had this discussion."

Damon is looking around and only sees Klaus and a dark brown haired girl wearing jeans, a black tank top and a brown leather jacket with Lanvin Python sling back heels sitting at a table, he doesn't see Katherine. "That was before I freed your werewolf and vampire and killed your witch."

Klaus is sad, Maddox was a good witch, not as good as Davina but still good, "Excuse me."

Damon knows he has a very slim chance of getting out of this alive, "You can kill me, it was all me."

Klaus is staring at Damon whenever he says, "Davina, go see if the others are ready."

Damon see the brown haired girl get up and leave. Klaus and Damon are now an inch apart, "I have heard about you the crazy impulsive vampire in love with his brother's girl."

" I knew one of you would stop me, it was a fifty fifty on who."

Klaus presses play on the laptop and Damon sees a woman screaming, Klaus lets out a victorious little laugh, "The thing about werewolves is they travel in packs."

Klaus closes the laptop and throws his phone to Damon, "Need a closer look."

"Jules."

Klaus is now circling Damon, "When you spend a thousand years trying to break a curse, you learn a thing or two." Klaus is now in front of Damon "First rule, always have a backup witch and a backup werewolf."

Damon wants to stop this ritual, "Vampire, was that your witch Davina."

Klaus sees Kol in the doorway, "I got that covered."

Kol breaks Damon's neck and says, "Nobody is hurting Davina."

Klaus looks at his younger brother to say, "Let's go brother."

They enter the next apartment, "It's time ladies, let Katerina down, put her back in the apartment and grab the vampire."

Caroline unties Katherine and throws her back in the apartment and Kol grabs vampire Jenna.
