So I wrote this chapter a long time before all this doppleganger stuff with Silas and Stefan and Amara and Elena and everyone else came out of the bag. I hope it doesn't affect my storyline too much but I'm sticking to the idea I've had for some time while I am writing this.
Chapter 2
After driving past the girl to make sure the compulsion worked, Klaus pulled his car into another driveway on her street. There were no cars parked in it and the house looked empty. The mailbox had blown open and there was snow covering the letters inside.
"Why does she look exactly like Juliette?" Rebekah asked Klaus turning in her seat to face him.
"I think we have another doppleganger on our hands." Klaus said looking excited, his eyes lighting up like Rebekah hadn't seen in a while.
"Ester created the doppleganger so you could break your curse Niklaus. That curse is broken, gone, forgotten, done for. Why would there be another one? She's not even from their bloodline!"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, calm down." Klaus said motioning with his hands at her. "I never said anything about my curse. What if someone took Ester's idea and used it on another curse?'' He said to Rebekah when really he was thinking to himself that he had another chance to create hybrids.
"Or what if Ester took the idea from someone else?" Rebekah said more to herself than to Klaus.
Klaus shrugged his shoulders and went deep into thought. Maybe this could be what he had been waiting for. They might be able to abandon that foolish hunt for the cure after all.
"Should we kill her?" Rebekah said breaking Klaus out of his thoughts.
"I don't think so. Maybe we should figure out what curse she belongs to first." Klaus said to her, pulling out his phone as he began dialing it.
"Who are you calling?" Rebekah asked him looking over his shoulder.
"Elijah. Maybe he remembers Juliette. He can help us figure things out." He said as he hit dial.
"Do you even know where he is? I haven't seen him for months."
"Maybe I've been keeping tabs on him over those months." Klaus said wagging his eyebrows at her.
"Elijah." Klaus said suddenly turning his conversation over to the phone, "I need you in New York. It is extremely important. Call this number when you get this message." He hung up.
"What do we do now?" Rebekah asked.
"We watch and wait."

"There was this ass-creepy guy driving today when I was walking Hannah home." I said to Rose as I plopped myself down on her bed.
"Ass-creepy is a nice word." Rose said as she riffled through the clothes on her messy floor looking for God knows what.
"No really. He was like driving and then when he got close to me and Hannah he slowed down until he was almost stopped." I said lying down on her bed and looking at all the posters on her ceiling.
Rose stopped looking through her stuff and looked up at me concerned. "What did he want?"
"Well I said, 'Can I help you?' and then he smirked at me and drove away."
I started to count the posters. I was up to 15 before she asked, "How old was he? Was he a old ass-creepy guy or a young ass- creepy guy?" I smiled at her use of my word and she started ruffling through her clothes again.
I didn't answer her until I finished counting the posters on her ceiling; it was 44 added with pictures of celebrities. "Young-ish ass-creepy. I didn't really get a good look at him but he did look familiar for some reason."
I sat up on the bed and looked at her clock. It said 5:39. "Crap!" I jumped off the bed. "I have to leave for track in 6 minutes!"
I ran into my room and started frantically muttering curses to myself as I tried to find my clothing. I found one of my tank tops and some shorts I threw them on. "Where are my freaking shoes?" I said to myself searching through my closet.
"HAVE YOU GUYS SEEN MY SHOES?" I yelled out of my bedroom.
"Maddy! My clock is fifteen minutes fast!" Rose yelled from her bedroom and I stopped running around instantly. I took a deep breath and narrowed my eyes before marching into her room.
"Thank you for the heart attack Rose." I said smiling but glaring at her, pissed off. She smiled at me and then lay down on her bed.
I walked back out of her room and down the hall into my room. It was still really messy so I had to shift through all the clothes on the floor and on my bed before I found my shoes. When I did, I shoved them on and then walked into Rose's room fully clothed in my athletic-wear.
"The ass-creepy guy had been parked in the driveway across the street before he turned into the ass-creepy guy." I said when I walked in.
''Who cares." Rose said opening her laptop and becoming absorbed in the internet.
"Well I do! I bet Hannah does too. You can ask her if she cares after she gets home from gymnastics. I want to know who he was and why he was creeping on us." I said to her.
"Maybe he just thought that you were so cute to be walking your sister home from the bus." She said still not caring about what I was saying.
"Or maybe he's ass-creepy and we should wonder why he is." I said to her.
"Whatever." She said. I knew she didn't care so I just left the room. I walked into my room and grabbed a jacket and pulled it on. It was like negative a million degrees in our house. I would turn up the heat but I don't even know how or where to do that in our house.
I looked over at my clock and saw that it was actually 5:39 this time and my mom wasn't home yet. I pulled out my phone and called her. I had to be at school for practice by 6:00. I didn't want to be late again because then my coach would be mad and decide to kill me with extra drills.
"Hello?" She answered.
"Mom! Where are you? I have to leave for school in like 10 minutes." I said while walking out of my room to go and find my bag.
"I'm on my way. Can you tell Rose that she needs to tell your father that Peapod is coming with food tonight?" She said as I found my bag and pulled out my empty water bottles and put them next to the sink. Peapod is this grocery delivery service that we have. It means that we don't have to leave the house to get the groceries; they bring them right to our door. Its sooooooooooo much easier, as my mom would say.
"Yeah sure. We need to leave right when you get here though. I can't be late again." I walked over to the fridge and got out three more bottles and shoved them in my bag.
"Okay, be ready."
"OK. Bye" I said and hung up my phone.
I threw my phone in my pocket and marched into Rose's room. She had headphones on and didn't even notice me coming in. Being the considerate person that I am I decided not to disturb her.
I walked over to the white board on her wall and wrote on it, TELL YOUR FATHER THAT PEAPOD IS GOING TO COME WHILE I AM AT PRACTICE. She still hadn't noticed me so I rolled my eyes and threw the marker at her.
It didn't even hit her that hard but she screamed and paused her movie by hitting her laptop spacebar as hard as she could.
"What the hell?" She asked and I pointed to the whiteboard before walking out.
'I really am considerate.' I thought to myself while walking back to my room.

"What's the news on this street?" Klaus asked Rebekah when she returned from scoping out the neighborhood and got in the car. Klaus was still parked in the driveway they had been in before.
"Well, right across the street from her house, where we parked our car before, the house in the final stages of being built. It has electricity and such but looks like no one lives there yet. The only other people that I actually saw living on her street were right next door." She said turning to face Klaus.
"That's great love." He said looking over at her. "Now how can we figure out who she is?"
"I'm not your slave you know." Rebekah said crossing her arms. She looked behind her and saw a car driving away. "There she goes now anyway."
Klaus turned his head sharply and saw the silver minivan disappearing around a corner.
"We can use this time to figure some things out until she gets back. Crap! We shouldn't have let her see us before driving by. Now it's going to be really hard to figure out who she is if we can't go near her without freaking her out." Klaus pounded his head against the steering wheel.
"Yes it was a great plan of yours." Rebekah said examining her nails.
"What is so interesting about your nails Rebekah?" Klaus asked her.
She looked over at Klaus and glared. She opened her mouth to say something before Klaus' phone started ringing cutting her off.
"Brother. Thank you for returning my call." Klaus said when he picked up.
"What is it that you need?" Rebekah heard Elijah say from over the line.
"I need your help figuring something out." Klaus replied.
"Why?"
"There's this girl and I would like to figure out if she can help me make more hybrids." Klaus said looking over to Rebekah and rolling his eyes. Rebekah scoffed at him and rolled her eyes also.
"Why can't you figure it out yourself? If she looks like Tatia she is obviously a doppleganger and then you can make the hybrids."
"It's more complicated than that. Can you just come here?" Klaus asked him.
"Fine where are you?"
"A little town about three hours away from New York City on Long Island. I will send you the details." He said to Elijah.
"Yes. I will probably be there in about a day once you give me the information." Elijah said.
"See you then." Klaus said and hung up. He turned over to Rebekah. "Can you follow that girl and see where she is going?"
"I need the car they're already down the road and I don't want to run."
"Fine." Klaus said. He got out of the front seat and she slid over to it.
"I'll try to get into the house. You follow her but don't let them see you." Klaus said to her. Rebekah gave him an eye roll before pulling onto the street. She drove away and Klaus started walking toward the girl's house. Now how was he going to get inside?
He looked around quickly and saw no one watching him. Walking over to the house across the street he looked inside the windows and saw no one there. Rebekah had been correct on her information then.
Checking around him one more time he grabbed the doorknob and turned until the locks broke and the door pushed open into the house. He smirked to himself and thought, 'What a perfect watch house.'
Now all he had to do was sit in this house and he could see everything going on at the doppelganger's house.
Thanks so much for reading! Please review if you want to see another chapter!
