Chapter Nine Part One: The Origin Of The Salvatore Quadruplets
3rd Person Pov
Stefan followed Damon to see what the problem was. They both went downstairs and saw the cell door opened and Elijah isn't in there anymore.
"No she didn't." Damon said.
"Where is he going?" Katherine asked handing him his coffee.
"To retrieve me so I can get out of this bad hairdo." Klaus, who is still in Alaric's body, said.
"Are you sure that's a good idea Klaus?" Katherine asked.
"Well, the full moon is almost upon us, I've killed the witch, I have the moonstone, all I need are The Salvatore Quadruplets, which shouldn't be a problem at all, now that the witch is dead and Damon Salvatore don't exactly compete with me." Klaus smirked. "Oh I am so ready to break this curse." He sighed.
"And why would you do that here? There are so many people that would try to stop you." Katherine told him.
"Because I have to. It's the birthplace of The Salvatore Quadruplets." Klaus told her.
"Didn't realize that was a requirement." Katherine said.
"How could you? You betrayed me and fled England before I could give you the details, Katerina." He told her. "But I did find your birthplace and slaughtered your family, so I guess we're cool." He added. "Let's just hope that Damon isn't as stupid as you were."
"He won't run with them." Katherine told him. "Damon would die for them, if it's the last thing he does." She added.
"And I don't have a problem killing him if I have to." He told her.
"Elijah? Caroline? What are you doing here? What happened?" Carol asked as they stood outside the Lockwood Mansion.
"I've had a bit of an accident, Carol. I'm hoping you could help." Elijah told her.
"Well, I'm on my way to a meeting so-" Carol started.
"I won't take but a minute of your time." Elijah compelled her.
"Of course, anything you need." Carol smiled.
"Thank you." Elijah said before walking in, followed behind my Elena. "Well, first thing first, I'm going to need a change of clothing." He said as Carol closed the door.
"Well, we could try one of my husband's suits. I haven't boxed them up yet." Carol offered.
"Wonderful." Elijah said before Carol walked away to fetch the clothes for Elijah.
"How did you know she's not on vervain?" Caroline asked.
"Because I'm the one who got her off it." Elijah replied. "Right before you and your friends killed me. Twice" He added. "If you'll excuse me, I'll be down in a moment." He told her before walking away.
"Hello." Damon answered his phone.
"I think you would like to know that your children's mother's mother knows of your kind." Klaus said.
"Klaus, what do you mean she knows? Where are you, you son of a bitch?" Damon growled.
"Why with her of course, at her lovely estate." Klaus replied.
"Klaus, don't you dare touch her or else-" Damon started.
"Or else what? You're going to kill me? It's not that easy I'm afraid." Klaus told him. "But you, on the other hand, is quite easy to kill. A stake through your heart, bye bye daddy, hello Salvatore Quadruplets." Klaus smirked.
Before Damon could respond, he vamp speed over to the Forbes estate. He knocked down the door to find Liz sitting on the sofa, scared as Klaus stood in front of her.
"Ah wondering when you would make your appearance." Klaus smirked.
"Anything to stop you from harming my family." Damon told him.
"Hmm, like I said, it's easy to kill you and then I get what I want." Klaus told him.
"Yeah, there's a problem with that little plan of yours." Damon told him.
"And what is that?" Klaus asked.
"There are many people here that are more than willing to stop you from getting what you want." Damon told him.
"And imagine how easy it will be for me to kill them as well." Klaus told them.
"It's not as easy as you think it is." Damon told him.
"And why is that?" Klaus asked.
"I don't know, you saw what they did to Bonnie, right? You were there, if I am correct." Damon told him.
"Oh yeah. I am impressed on how much power they channeled at this age. And remind me how old they are again." Klaus told him.
"2 months. They are 2 months old." Damon responded.
"And that is precisely why I need them." Klaus told him.
"So I assume that the Martin witch is no longer with us." Elijah said.
"No." Caroline responded.
"And Katerina?" Elijah asked.
"We believe that Klaus is keeping her somewhere under his compulsion." Caroline told him. "But I didn't release you so we could talk about Katherine. I want to know why it is so important for Klaus to use my kids so he could break the curse." She told him.
"You don't know?" Elijah asked.
"I know that they are powerful witches that the coven wants dead. Other than that Damon won't tell me anything. And quite frankly I don't want to hear it from him. I don't know if he'll tell me the truth or just lie straight to my face, like he alway does." Caroline told him.
"I see." Elijah said.
"Thank God, you're ok." Alison tried to go in but there's a force that stopped her. "Damn it."
"I'm good for now." Katherine was relieved to see her best friend.
"Thought you might be dead." Stefan said.
"Unfortunately not." Katherine replied.
"Kat." Alison said.
"I'm glad you're here Al." Katherine smiled.
"Me too. God I missed you." Alison told her.
"God, you have no idea." Katherine said. "What are you guys doing here anyway?" She asked them.
"Alaric-Klaus was blending way too easily. I figured he probably had some coaching." Stefan told her as he took out a small glass bottle.
"Is that-?" Katherine asked.
"Vervain, your salvation." Stefan told her.
"It's not gonna undo anything." Katherine told him.
"There's always a loophole." Stefan told her. "Did he tell you to stay in this apartment until he said it was okay for you to leave?" Stefan asked.
Katherine starts to say something but stopped herself.
"You can't say can you?" Alison asked.
"Did he tell you to do absolutely everything he says until the end of time?" Stefan asked.
"No." Katherine replied.
"Well, there's your loophole." Stefan told her. "Drink this and it would prevent any further compulsion." He told her.
Katherine went to get it but Stefan pulled it back.
"Give it to me." Katherine said.
"Answer one question first." He told her. "You double-crossed us with Isobel, why?" He asked.
"I didn't think you could stand a chance against Klaus." Katherine told him. "And I was looking out for myself." She added.
"And where exactly did that get you?" Stefan asked.
Katherine didn't answer.
"Here." He threw him the vervain bottle. "Be careful with that. If he finds out you have that, you're never getting out of here." He told her.
"Why?" Alison asked as they are outside the apartment building.
"Why what?" Stefan asked, turning around to face her.
"You gave her vervain to help her. I, at least thought you would want her to suffer for everything she has done to you." Alison told him.
"I'm not Damon, Alison." Stefan told her. "Yes, she did horrible things to me when I was human but I've moved on. She's not worth my time, but no one deserves to be a prisoner." Stefan told her before turning back around and start walking.
"See, I don't believe." Alison said, making him turn back around to face her.
"What do you mean you don't believe that?" Stefan asked.
"I believe that there is a part of you that still cares for her. Moving on doesn't mean you stopped caring. Even though she compelled you to love her, I believe there was a small part of you that really did love her." Alison told him.
"Believe what you want but that's not true." Stefan told her.
"Come on Stefan. Don't tell me you actually came back to Mystic Falls because you wanted to start over. You came back because when you look at Elena, you saw Katherine. All of this is because of Katherine or else you wouldn't be back here. Moving on means actually moving on. It doesn't mean dating the girl that looks like your ex-girlfriend." She told him. "Like Damon. I believe Damon chose to go after Caroline because she is a Forbes. Caroline and I are the same person, personality-wise. We're both preppy, constantly annoy the hell out of people, as Katherine puts it. We both look for exceptions from people, we're insecure, and we can be pretty badass when we want to be. But I do believe Damon has actually moved on. You can lie to yourself all you want but it's in your eyes that says there is a small part of you that wants to keep her safe as well." She told him before walking away as Stefan stood there thinking to himself about what Alison just said.
"Did you know that vampires are the oldest creatures of the night?" Klaus asked. "Well, except for werewolves, of course." He added. "I've red that there is an old Aztec curse on both species that keeps werewolves slaves to the moon and vampires bound by the sun." He said. "They say these creatures would do anything to have this curse broken. And that they wouldn't care who they had to kill to do it, especially 2 months old babies." He told them.
Damon quickly vamp speed toward him, holding him up against the wall, his hands around his neck, choking him.
"Run, Liz. Get out of here." Damon told her
Damon brought Liz to the Boarding House just in case Klaus may go after her as bait to get what he wants. As soon as they came in, Stefan, Elena and Alison were in the living room with the kids. Liz had a shocked look on her face seeing the babies.
"Liz?" Elena asked. "What happened?" She asked.
"Klaus happened." Damon replied. "Oh also, turned out Liz knew about us for quite a while now." He added.
"What?" The three of them turned to Liz, whose eyes were still on the four babies.
"I've got to call Caroline, can you-?" Damon asked.
"Of course." Alison told him.
"Damon…" Caroline answered her phone. "What? Yeah, I'll be right there." She told him before you hang up. "Klaus went after my mom, I've got to go." Caroline told Elijah.
"That's not part of the arrangement." Elijah told her.
"She's my family, Elijah and if Klaus is making a move to get to my children, I have to at least try to stop him." Caroline told him. "We will continue this after." She told him.
"How do I know you're coming back?" Elijah asked.
"I'm not." She replied. "Because you're coming with me. And I am not taking no for an answer." She told him.
"Hey, where is she?" Caroline came in the Boarding House. "Mom." She spotted her.
Caroline ran to her mother but Liz flinched when Caroline got close to her.
"What the hell is he doing here blondie?" Damon asked as he saw Elijah standing by the door.
"He's here because I asked him to." Caroline told him.
"Quite more like she demanded I was here." Elijah told him.
"Are you out of your mind? What if he's here to harm our children? Have you even thought of that?" Damon asked her.
"Of course I've thought of that Damon. I'm not the one who should be reminded of our kids' safety." Caroline told him.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Damon asked her.
"It's um...it's nothing." Caroline told him. "I asked him here to give us information on why Klaus all of a sudden let go of Elena and went after our kids. If you don't want to know then it's fine but I sure as hell do." She told him.
"You are impossible." Damon told her.
"Same goes for you." Caroline told him.
"Fine, but I need your word that you're not going anywhere near them." Damon told him.
"I can assure you that keeping your kids safe is in my best interest." Elijah replied.
"Elena, invite him in." Damon told her.
"Come in, Elijah." Elena told him.
"Ok,so you're to explain why Klaus wants the Quadruplets instead of Elena." Stefan said.
"Many centuries ago, one of the witches from the Gemini Coven had a dream about a group of powerful creatures that would end the war between all supernatural and human beings and bring peace upon us all. But no one knows when they were gonna arrive or what they looked like. All they knew were that they are from the specific human bloodline." Elijah said.
"A Salvatore and A Forbes." Stefan said.
"People waited days, months, years, even centuries for their saviors until 1864." Elijah told them.
"When Alison, a Forbes, got pregnant by Damon, a Salvatore." Elena said.
"By that time, new information was discovered by
one of warlock from The Aja's Coven. It was told that these saviors who were supposed to bring peace to the two worlds would bring evil upon them all. They have great power. They can overpower any coven and any creature, any humans, they want for their own self-being. Everyone would be under their command and their control. When the new information was out, some of the coven wanted to destroy them. They didn't want to live in fear. So they thought of one thing that would save them." Elijah said.
"Kill them." Alison said.
"But they didn't." Elena said.
"Yeah, because of Athena." Damon said.
"They would rather carry on the war and suffer than bring peace to them. Why?" Elena asked.
"Because, the war is not as bad as the evil that was to come upon them." Elijah said.
"You said some of the coven wanted them dead. Not all, why?" Stefan asked.
"They knew there would be a price to pay when bringing peace between everyone. They were suffering and bringing peace was the only option to end their suffering. They were willing to pay the price." Elijah replied.
"That still doesn't explain why Klaus wants them." Elena said.
"They are considered very powerful if they can bring peace between everyone. Like I said, they can overpower anyone they please to overpower." Elijah said.
"That's hard to believe when all they prove was protect the one they love. Even at this age." Stefan said.
"Exactly. They are only 2 months old and look at what they can do with their powers, even if they don't know it." Damon said.
"Klaus wants their powers to break the curse." Alison said. "We can't let him." She told them.
"And we won't." Damon said.
