She zoomed out the bar, not caring if people saw, and found him lessthan a few miles away, trying desperately to run away. She grabbed the back of his neck and slammed him against the ground."I thought we were passed the childish games Alexander," she hissed.

"So did I, and yet here we are," He said, standing up. "I'm tired of this Caroline."

"Tired of what?" She growled.

"I'm tired of this game we're playing. You want answers? Fine, then ask me a question, don't hunt me down, don't make threats, I have no problem telling you why I did what I did. You're the one that needs to grow up and quite the childish games! You want to know why I betrayed you? Ask," Alex snapped.

Caroline looked taken back for a second, but just for a second. "Then do tell Alex, why did you betray me?"

"He told he would be able to tell me what happened in France," Alex revealed.

"And you didn't think for one second that he was tricking you?" Caroline asked.

"I knew there was a chance," He admitted quietly.

"So you still went through with it?" Caroline demanded.

"I wanted to know what happened in France," He began.

"What is it with France? I thought we were over this," She said.

"No, you were over it, I never was. I was the one that had no memory of what happened, what I did. It was my life that was messed with, not yours. You put a close on it like it never happened, you wanted me to move on, but I couldn't, and I still can't. So yes, I knew he would trick me, but I needed to know," He said.

"You want to know what happened in France so bad that you risked everything just for answers?" Caroline asked quietly.

"Yes."

Caroline nodded her head and looked away before looking back at Alex, running her tongue over her teeth. "You want to know what happened in France? You want to know why I shoved it aside and wanted you to forget about it and move on? Then I'll show you. I will show you exactly why I kept this a secret, why I never wanted you to find out. Let's go," She said, grabbing his arm and dragging him back to Bonnie's house. He struggled hard, not liking the look in her eyes. She stopped suddenly and yanked him against her and sunk her fangs harshly into his neck, roughly drinking from him. She yanked away with a growl and threw him down on the ground.

"What the hell?" He asked, holding his neck. "You want me to grow up Alex? Fine, I'll grow. Enough with the threats and the chasing, words mean nothing, actions mean more," She said. She grabbed him and flashed to a nearest tree, shoving her hand around his

heart and made sure he was looking at her. "I hope it was all worth it Alex, because I promise you, you will not make it to morning." She yanked her hand out of his chest and watched him sing to the ground, clutching at his chest, looking up at her in surprise. "Let's go," She repeated, and grabbed him and dragged him back to Bonnie's, this time with no struggle. The Originals were interrupted by the door crashing open with a loud bang and Caroline storming in the house, dragging Alex behind her.

"Bonnie!" She yelled, throwing Alex on the floor. "Get down here, now!"

"Alex?" Rebekah asked, worriedly, standing at the edge of the barrier. He started to get up on his hands and knees but Caroline placed her foot in the center of his back and shoved him back down.

"What are you doing?" Rebekah asked, glaring at her.

"Bonnie!" Caroline yelled again, ignoring Rebekah. Bonnie came flying down the stairs while all the Originals looked on in curiosity.

"What's wrong?" Bonnie asked.

"You need to lift the compulsion on Alex, and you need to do it now," Caroline said, grabbing Alex by the back of his neck and hauling his to his knees.

"Wait, what?" Bonnie frowned.

"I am not repeating myself Bonnie, now!" Caroline snarled.

"I can't, the spell to keep them in took my energy," Bonnie said, gesturing to the Originals.

"It's still a full moon, use that energy," Caroline said.

"If I do it will release them," Bonnie said.

"Do it," Caroline said without hesitation.

"But," Bonnie began.

"Bonnie," Caroline said softly. That's when Bonnie stopped. The seriousness in Caroline's voice worried her, but not as much as the glint in her eye and the newly equipped accent. Much like Alex, she knew it only came out when Caroline was seriously mad, and Bonnie only heard it herself once.

"Okay," Bonnie said. She turned her attention to Alex and squinted.

Alex screamed in pain and clutched at his head, desperate for the pain to stop. Caroline let him go and he rolled around on the floor, trying to escape from the pain.

"Stop! What are you doing to him?" Rebekah yelled, watching helplessly.

"Only what he wanted Rebekah," Caroline said dangerously.

Bonnie stopped to catch her breath and glanced over to Caroline. "This is going to take a while," She said. "Before I go any further, are you sure about this?"

"Continue," was all Caroline said to get Bonnie to get back to work.


Bonnie released Alex and collapsed against the wall, panting. She had been doing this for over two hours and still, hadn't gotten anywhere. She didn't want to disappoint Caroline, and that's exactly what was happening. "He's fighting me," She said, glancing at Caroline.

"It's hurts," Alex moaned. He was covered in sweat and laying lifeless on the floor. He wasn't trying to fight it, but it hurt so much he couldn't help it. After while he hopped Bonnie would lose her energy, but it never happened.

Caroline pushed herself off the wall and walked over to Alex. "Will it help if he's weakened?" She questioned.

"I suppose. He won't have as much energy to fight me, so yeah, it'll help," Bonnie said.

Caroline nodded and dropped onto Alex, straddling him. "I'm pretty sure that's not what she meant by weakening him," Kol muttered.

Bonnie snorted by what he was implying. The entire time this was happening Kol made comments, and most of them made her loose her concentrations. The other Originals where all quiet, well, except for

Rebekah who was concerned for Alex. She shook her head of all Original thought and focused on Caroline.

"Please don't," Alex moaned, rolling his head back.

"Shhh," Caroline soothed, running her hands up his chest and leaning forward until their chests where pressed together. For a second Bonnie thought they were going to kiss, after all their lips where an inch apart, but at the last second Caroline turned her head and kissed a kiss on Alex's neck before her vampire features came out and she sank her fangs in his skin.

Bonnie looked away, feeling suddenly uncomfortable. This seemed like an intimate moment, something that should be private, it wasn't made for a bunch of people to watch. She noticed that all the Originals looked uncomfortable as well. Well, not quite. Elijah and Kol did, Rebekah and Klaus seemed...mad. Why would they be mad? Rebekah made it obvious that she felt something for Alex, but why was Klaus mad? She followed his gaze to find it locked on Caroline, who was drinking from Alex at a slow pace in no hurry. She looked back at Klaus and her eyes widened. Was it possible he felt something for Caroline? Why else would he mad?

Caroline finally pulled away, but didn't get up. She stayed where she was and tilted Alex's head so he would look at her. They seemed to have a conversation between them, just the two of them that no one else could understand, but whatever was said between them, it was clear that something big happened.

"Okay," Alex said softly, his eyes sliding close. Caroline kissed his forehead before sitting up and getting off of him.

"Go ahead Bonnie," She nodded.

Bonnie closed her eyes and focused once more. She was prepared to fight

Alex, but surprisingly he didn't. So Bonnie continued the spell. She fought through the compulsion, and memories started to surface. She didn't have to see the memories with Alex, so she was completely unaware of the true pain she was causing him.

Alex's P.O.V.

After Caroline fed off of him, he realized he had to go through this. Caroline hated blood sharing because of Mikael, so the fact that she was willing to drink from him just to weaken him, meant she was serious, that these memories needed to come out. So he stopped fighting.

Bonnie kept the pain coming, and at first Alex thought it was for nothing, but then the memories started to surface.

He was walking down the street when he was suddenly grabbed and shoved into an ally. He swung around, fully prepared to kill whoever dared to touch him, but he stopped when he saw it was Mikael. That was the last thing he saw before everything turned black.

He groaned and grabbed his head squeezing tightly, as if it would make the pain stop. The memories stop. Why wouldn't it stop? He didn't want this anymore, but he didn't have energy to fight Bonnie anymore, and even if he tried, he couldn't. Once one memory opened, it was like a flood gate and they just kept coming, one after another. Filled with pain, and torture.

The door was opened and he didn't need to be shoved in, he ran in. He ran to Caroline side to check on her.

"What the hell happened to you?" He asked, cupping her face between his hands.

"You shouldn't be here," She whispered weakly.

No, he shouldn't. He shouldn't be remembering these memories, now he knew. They were dark and full of evil, he needed them to end. With the remaining energy he had, he got up and tried to lunge at Bonnie, but Caroline was there and caught him in her arms. She had to let him go, he didn't want to see any more of this, and she knew this. She was going to make him suffer, he was sure of this.

"No, Alex, leave me," Caroline whispered.

"I won't leave you, not again," He said, tugging at her chains.

She grabbed his hand and stopped him. "Go," She whispered.

He had to go, now he knew this, but Caroline's arms where strong and wrapped around him, holding him. Whether it was to hold him down, or to comfort him, it didn't matter. Alex looked at it like torture.

"Stop, before I remember," He whispered.

"You wanted this Alexander," She said, brushing the hair out of his face.

He did, but not anymore. He didn't want this!

"Hello Alex," Mikael grinned, closing the door behind him.

He stood up in front of Caroline, protecting her. "What is this for?"

"We're just having a little fun Alex," Mikael laughed.

"Fun, just a little fun," Alex muttered, eyes slipping close. He felt like he was going mad, he was going mad. He knew this would all go away if he stopped fighting the memory, but he didn't want them anymore.

"Stop fighting them Alex, it's too late," Caroline said, gently wiping the blood off of his upper lip. He was now bleeding from his ears and nose, and pretty soon his eyes would bleed as well. Just because she was upset with him didn't mean she wanted to see him in pain. "Just stop fighting."

Mikael had him against the wall and forced him to look into his eyes. "You will feel no guilt, no remorse, you will not hesitate. You will do whatever I say with no questions You will live out every dark fantasy you have ever had, and you will do them on Caroline. Torture her any way you want, do whatever you want. Do you understand me?" Mikael asked.

"Yes," He said.

Mikael released him and stepped back. "What are you waiting for?" He grinned gesturing to Caroline.

"Please, don't make him do this," Caroline whispered, looking between him and Mikael. He picked up a knife from a long table that held all sorts of things and walked towards Caroline. She fought against her chains in earnest, but he didn't care. He ran the knife across her neck and down her spine. "Do what you want, but leave him be," Caroline pleaded to Mikael.

"Go ahead son," Mikael laughed, nodding to him.

He savagely plunged the knife into her spine, ignoring the screams of pain, the blood. He ignored the little voice in his head that said this was wrong, why should he care? He didn't feel anyways.

"No!" Alex gasped, and struggled away from Caroline. She allowed him to and stood up while he scrambled away from her.

"No no no no," Alex said, dropping his head in his hands as the memories continued.

Blood coated his hands and arms, it was splattered across his clothing and face. If he kept this up, he would be covered with it. Fine with him.

He set down the machete and picked up the knife again. All the other toys have been fun, but this knife was his favorite. It was sharp enough to cut through skin like butter, and small enough to reach placed the other knives couldn't get.

He turned back to Caroline to examine his work. Her arms and legs weren't healed from his fun with the machete; her skin was showing on her stomach from where he hit her with an axe, there was blood smeared around her eyes from where he got a little frisky with an ice pick. It was an amazing sight.

He walked around her and ran the knife along the back of her neck, down her spine. She arched her back, trying to move away. He chuckled and moved around to face her. The laugh died in his throat when he caught sight of her. Her beautiful porcelain skin was showing, those long legs of her stretched out on display for him, her flat tummy just peeking out, and her arms on either side of the chair. He strode forward and shoved her head back to he could get a good view of her neck. She moaned in discomfort and it went straight to his groin.

He knew what he wanted to do next. He went to her and ripped her shirt wide open, giving him perfect view of her flat stomach and her small breast that where just peeking out through her bra.

"What are you doing?" She rasped, slowly lifting her head up. He grabbed her throat and pressed down, tipping down once more.

"Stay," He growled, eyes latched on her chest. His pants tightened and he pressed further down on her neck, causing her chest to arch out more. Gasps escaped her mouth as he kept pressing further and further down. God, what a sight.

He let up on the pressure, but just enough to where he wasn't at risk at killing her. Her chest was still arched out, so he ran his knife along them, over the tops of them, in-between them. "I wonder Mikael would say to this," He muttered. He let go of her throat and her head immediately rolled forward.

"To what?" She rasped.

"Me taking you," He replied, staring at her while he contemplated what to do.

She looked up at him with wide eyes, and the first time, horror.

"Alex," She began.

"I'm thinking," He said.

"You can't do this Alex," Caroline said.

"I can do whatever I want," He retorted.

"No Alex, I mean you can't do this. Please, try and fight the compulsion. You have to try," Caroline said, looking at him desperately.

He stared down at her for a while before saying," I wonder if he wants to watch."

"Oh my God," Alex whispered, tears forming in his eyes. He looked up at Caroline, terrified to see what was in her eyes. She stared at him calmly, almost to calmly. "I hurt you," He choked out, standing up.

"You were compelled Alex," She said.

"No, no!" He shouted. "Don't you dare defend me. I hurt you, I tortured you over and over again, and I enjoyed it. I raped you," He whispered.

That's when Caroline moved and grabbed his face, forcing him to look at him. "Alex, look at me," She said when he tried pulling away. "Look at me." He finally looked at her and nearly broke. "You did not rape me," She said, stressing over every word. "There's more to what happened then you remember. Let Bonnie continue."

"No, I will not remember," Alex growled, standing up. "I refuse to remember."

Caroline rushed at him and slammed him against the wall, holding him by his collar. "You have no choice in the matter, just like I didn't have a choice when you and Mikael had your hands all over me, torturing me. You will remember," She hissed.

Alex struggled against her, but found himself unable to, and when he looked up into Caroline's angry, green eyes, the memory surfaced and he went limp in her grip as he remembered what happened next.

He was just about to take his shirt off when the dungeon door opened and Mikael walked in. He didn't even give him a second look as he continued to look at Caroline.

"You stopped. Why?" Mikael questioned.

"I was going to try a different method," He shrugged.

"Meaning?" Mikael asked.

"A more intimate... type of punishment," He said.

Mikael looked at him with raised eyebrows. "I'm assuming you mean rape?"

"If you want to put it in such a cruel way, then yes, I suppose it is," He said.

"How else would you put it?"

"Sex. That's all it is."

"Not when forced."

"Does that mean I'm not allowed?"

"I'm not saying that."

"Then what are you saying?"

Mikael and him stared at each for a moment before Mikael smiled. "Do what you wish."

"No!" Caroline snarled, slamming herself against the chains with so much force that they were cutting into her.

Mikael turned around and looked at her with raised eyebrows. "Are you finally speaking to me?"

"You can't let him do that to me," She hissed, and continued to struggle.

"I let him do anything he wanted to you, why should I stop now?" Mikael asked.

"Because once he realizes what he did, once he can feel again, this will destroy him Mikael, do not let him do this," Caroline said.

Mikael's brows furrowed and he walked closer to her. "This will destroy him? That's what you are worried about?"

Caroline looked him, tight lipped and it was clear that's all she had to say, and that did not please Mikael.

Mikael grabbed her face and forced her head to snap back and look at him. "You are right; this will destroy him, so I'm going to let him do this. I'm going to compel him to do, and while he is at it, I want him to feel the entire time. I want him to look into your eyes while he is raping you, and I want him to be able to feel the pain it is causing you all while he continues."

Caroline ripped her chin away from him and looked away. She closed her eyes and took several deep breaths before she opened them again and looked up at Mikael. Her eyes where so angry, and such a deep green that he knew he would remember them for the rest of his life. "You are going to regret this," She said quietly.

Mikael laughed and stepped away from her. "You do not scare me Caroline, I am immortal, unstoppable, you are not, and this will prove it you."

Mikael grabbed him by his shoulders and forced him to look at him while his pupils dilated. "Return to who you where before you came here. Remember who she is too, remember what you feel about her, and remember everything you've done to her. While you are doing that, you are to have your way with her. No matter how badly she wants you to stop, no matter how much you want to stop, I want you to give her everything you have, and I want you to do it, again and again, until you are please."

He blinked several times and stumbled away from Mikael as it all hit him. Every thing he did to Caroline, everything he was going to do, and what he was about to do. He looked at her and rushed to her side, touching her face.

"Have fun," Mikael chuckled.

"Sweet Caroline," he whispered, stroking her cheek with his thumb.

She smiled weakly at him and leaned into his hand. "Welcome back."

"I am so sorry," He said.

"I know, but it wasn't your fault Alex," She said.

"Yes it is. He compelled me to do whatever I wanted, whatever I have always wanted. I wanted this, this is my fault," He said, closing his eyes and dropping it on the arm of her chair. He couldn't believe himself. This was what he wanted, deep down, this was what he craved, and now he was getting it by hurting his best friend, and the only person that every cared about him.

"Please," Caroline whispered,

"What?" He asked, lifting his head.

"Get the chains off," She said, tugging at them.

"Shit, sorry," He muttered, and got up and grabbed the key Mikael had left for him by the door. He unlocked her quickly and caught her when she collapsed from the chair.

He sat on the floor with her in his arms, cradling her to his chest. "I am so sorry Caroline," He said, stroking her hair. He looked down and realized that it was also matted with blood and swallowed the lump in his throat. God, he was one sick bastard.

"You have to do it," She said softly.

"No," He said immediately, tensing up.

She felt it and looked up at him, her eyes tearing up. "Yes you will Alex."

"No," He repeated. "Stop crying because it isn't going to happen, I won't hurt you again."

"And I won't hurt you, and that's exactly what will happen if you don't do it," She said.

"I'll be fine," He began.

"No, no you won't," She said. "If you fight the compulsion, you will lose. And when you lose, what you have to do, it will be a lot worse," She said, touching his face.

His brows furrowed with confusion and he opened his mouth to say something, but she put a finger over his lips to stop him. "You will have no control, whatsoever. You will hurt me, and consequently hurt yourself. I promise you Alex, it will be better if you do this now, get it out of the way."

"I can't," He choked out, tears of his own forming.

"You have to," she said. She reached up and looped her arms around his head and pulled him down closer to her. "You have to," She repeated softly.

He closed his eyes and pressed his lips against hers, fighting back tears. He moved her so she was flat on her back, and he stretched out on top of her, only putting half of his weight on her, never breaking the kiss. Tears where openly streaming out of his eyes now, not only because of how disgusted he was with what he was doing right now, but also how his body was reacting. He wanted this, he was craving this, and that made him hate himself even more.

He pulled away from her and gently kissed down her jaw line and throat, sucking on her pulse point. She ran her fingers through his hair, and he knew it was meant to be a small comfort, and he appreciated it, but he didn't want it, just because he didn't deserve it.

"I am so sorry," He whispered against her skin, running his hand up and down her side.

"Shhh," She whispered, pulling his head back to hers and forced him to kiss her.

This time she took lead, and he had a feeling it was because she knew he couldn't. Her tongue nudged the seam of his lips and he allowed her in and shuddered at the feeling of her tongue running along his, encouraging him to kiss her back. He groaned into her mouth and finally started to participate. He couldn't help it, it was like his body was taking over. He was finally kissing her back, and his hand was starting to move. He kept brushing against the side of her breast before he openly groped her. He moved his mouth away from her and kissed his way down her neck over the top of her breast that where spilling out. His hand moved to unclasp her bra when she grabbed him and flipped them around so she was on top.

She looked down at him for a second before she grabbed his head and moved it to one side and sank her fangs into his neck. His surprise was short lived as it turned to shock, pain, and then finally understanding. He ran his hand through her hair and encouraged her to take more Not only would it help her, but he couldn't lie, this was incredible. why hadn't he offered her sooner? He moaned loudly, and pressed on her lower back, pressing her harder onto him. He needed release, and he needed it soon. She pulled away, licking her lips.

He wasted no time flipping them back around, driven by the urge to rip her clothes off and ravage her until she came screaming his name, but she had other plans and stopped him.

"Forgive me," She said, before reaching towards his neck and everything went black.

Caroline let him go and he slid down the wall, staring up at her in surprise. She stepped back, never taking her eyes off of him.

"What happened next?" He asked.

"I can't do anymore tonight," Bonnie rasped, sliding down the wall herself.

"Let them go," Caroline quietly."

"Are you sure? I can continue tomorrow," Bonnie said, looking surprised.

"Let them go Bonnie," Caroline said.

It took two seconds before they were free, and they wasted no time. Rebekah was at Caroline's throat and had her pressed against the wall before anyone could blink.

"Give me one reason why I shouldn't sever your head from your neck," She hissed.

Caroline narrowed her eyes at the blonde before laughing loudly. She couldn't stop and Rebekah let her go in confusion. Caroline covered her mouth with her hand and leaned against the wall for support as the giggles kept coming. She found this so very funny. Anywhere she went people threatened her with her life, tried to take it way from her. She lived everyday for the last 949 years with her life on the line. The reason why she found this funny was that no one ever thought to just take her life instead of threatening her. How stupid where people?

"Has she lost her mind?" Kol asked, staring her.

"I'm sorry," She giggled, somehow managing to compose herself. "I'm sorry," She repeated, before bursting out in laughter again.

"I think she's broke," Kol said, then glance at Eijah. "Can we get a new one?"

"Caroline?" Bonnie questioned softly.

Hearing Bonnie's voice calmed Caroline down and she actually managed to compose herself, and this time, she stayed compose. "I'm good," She said.

"Are you sure?" Kol asked with raised eyebrows,

"No, but we better continue before I start laughing again," Caroline said. "So go on Rebekah, sever my head from my neck, do whatever you have to do. Kill me if you wish. Or is it going to be you Kol, who kills me? After all, I'm sure you're still embarrassed from me out drinking you. Rest assured Kol, knowing you lost to someone who has every right to be a master drinker, after all, I have put up with your crazy father for the last 9 centuries. Speaking of your father, does that mean it's going to be you Klaus, to kill me? I'm sure you think I betrayed you in the worst possible way, but to be fair, I warned you I had baggage and secrets that could destroy you and your family, so it's not entirely my fault. So if you want to kill me, go ahead, I wouldn't stop you, but then again, if anyone was to take my life, Elijah certainly had the right to; after all, he is the reason why I'm still here today. So who will it be? Who will finally take Caroline Forbe's life?"

"Why do you want one of us to take it?" Elijah asked.

"Nothing has changed Elijah, I still do not want my death to be at the hands of your father, but I will not go down without a fight. No one is capable of killing me, with the exception of any of you. I highly doubt any of you can take me one on one, but you never know miracles happen," Caroline shrugged, a small smirk on her lips.

"Well hey now," Kol began.

"I have had enough of this," Klaus growled, stepping forward.

"So have I," Alex muttered, getting up and rushing out of the house. Rebekah looked like she was going to go after him, but Klaus grabbed her and stopped her.

"We have Mikael on our hands, get over your little crush," He said.

"You don't have to worry about Mikael, at least not for now," Caroline said, leaning against the wall lazily.

"What do you mean?" Elijah frowned.

"I had Bonnie put a cloaking spell on all us, plus, the minute he comes within a ten mile radius of Mystic Falls Bonnie will know about it," Caroline shrugged. "Why don't you all relax for the night? There's plenty of room here and no one will bother you."

"You expect us to relax when our father is on the loose, in the same country as us, with a weapon that can kill us?" Rebekah asked while Caroline went over to Bonnie and picked her up in her arms.

"It was a fake," Caroline called over her shoulder on the way up the stairs.

"You're going to drive them in sane," Bonnie laughed while Caroline set her in bed.

"Everyone's already a little insane," Caroline said, tucking Bonnie in.

"What are you doing Care?" Bonnie asked, looking up at her. Caroline smiled and moved her hair out of the way, stroking her forehead.

"Don't worry about it Bonnie. I have your back and that's all that matters," She said. She got up and left the witch and headed back downstairs.

"This is how things are going to work," She began, stalking into the living past the Originals. "I will stay out of all of your guys way if that's what you want. In return, stay out of my way, and my friends. No killing any of the vampires, witches, or werewolves in town. They are all under my protection. Kill the humans, and then hide the bodies. You have a problem following these rules, then we're going to have a problem. Everyone got that?"

"Who the hell do you think you are?" Rebekah hissed.

"Caroline Forbes, the girl who has put up with you piece of shit father for 949 years. I have been tortured, compelled, and beaten for no reason. I have been forced into doing terrible things and hurting people for no reason. And in the last 48 hours, I had my ass handed to me by your father so you and your siblings could get out of town. So I don't think the question is who the hell am I, I think the real question is who the hell are you Rebekah?" Caroline challenged, staring fearlessly at Rebekah.

"How did you get away?" Kol asked.

"Like I said, the white oak wasn't real," Caroline said.

"But-"

"But nothing," Caroline interrupted. "It was a fake. Over the years I've switched out all the white oak stakes and I have the real ones hidden."

The Originals shared looks with each other before looking at Caroline in surprise.

"So you have the real white oak stakes?" Elijah asked.

"Every single one of them," Caroline smiled.

Klaus rushed forward and grabbed her by her throat, pressing her against the fireplace.

"I can't be compelled Niklaus," She said, staring up at him. "Living with Mikael I learned how to fight it."

Being this close to him brought up all the feeling Caroline had been fighting to the surface and she struggled to hide her feelings, but she had a feeling they showed in her eyes, and that's what scared her. And looked into those blue eyes, she couldn't help but notice feelings in those eyes as well. No matter how much they both tried to hide it, the feeling were there.

He stepped away from her and she slowly straightened herself up, never looking away. She had so much she wanted to say, but there was not time, at least not anymore.

She looked away and focused on the Originals surrounding her. "I'm not giving up the white oak stakes, I can't be compelled, and there's nothing you can do that will make me tell you where they are. There are only a few options from this point on. One, we all go our separate ways and we all run away from Mikael in different directions, or, we can fight, together. None of you have any reasons what so ever to trust me, but I'm your best bet at this point. I know Mikael. I know the way he thinks, the way he acts, I know what he will be planning next, and more importantly, I know all of his weaknesses. I want him dead just like you guys do, maybe even more. If you don't want to help, then fine, walked away, but with or without your help, I'm killing Mikael. If you want in, be here tomorrow at 7 a.m., if not, get the hell out of my town."

She walked away from them and up the stairs to the room she always stayed in, never showing weakness. But once that door closed, and once she was away from any ears seeing as the room was noise proof, she let it all go. She dropped to her knees and sobbed. She cried until she had nothing left. Nothing left but the strength to get up and prepare herself. She had no choice left, no choice but to be strong.

I'm going to clear a couple things up just in case this chapter has led to any questions. 1. This will always be Caroline and Klaus, Alex isn't even completion. 2. No rape, at all. I couldn't bring myself to write about that, well, at least not in detail. 3. Torture scene's do happen, but I won't go into deep detail, only what you would normally see on actual TVD or TO. 4. Kennett will be very short and not in great detail because I'm thinking about writing a sequel to this that is a Kennett story.

So let me know what you thought, and if you have any questions. Also let me know how many would be interest in a Kennett story because I'm really interested in the idea. Review please :)
