Chapter Seven:

Klaus's POV

I got confused when Bella, Jacob, Leah, and Seth were looking at Paul staring at Sophie like he just saw the most amazing thing in the world.

"You didnt." Leah groaned. Paul and Sophie broke eye contact, leaving Sophie confused.

"Shit! You guys know I can't control it." Paul said.

"You know what. Why don't we all go inside?" Jasper suggested. We all nodded and walked into the house.

Walking into the villa, Jacob, Seth, Paul, Leah, and the Cold Ones looked on in awe.

"Wow, this place is better than any house we've ever owned." Emmett said.

We all sat down on the couch, but some just chose to stand up like Emmett, Jasper, Charlotte, Marcel, Emma, Paul, and Finn.

Before any of us could say anything, the doors burst open and a dark blur ran to Finn. Then I saw a female figure hugging Finn. Sage.

"Your rooms walls are soundproof, brother. Made sure of that with every room. Have fun 'reuniting'." I told him with a knowing smirk. He sent me a grateful look and blurred away with Sage in his arms. I heard the door slam shut and then nothing. I sent a knowing look to Bella who just rolled her eyes, but a hint of a smile on her beautiful face.

"So, introductions are done and dealt with, but how about we say what we are."

"Uh Cold Ones, if it wasn't noticeable." Emmett says, earning a smack from Charlotte and Rosalie. "Ow."

"Quileute shape shifters." Jacob said, pointing to himself, Leah, Seth, and Paul.

"Children of the moon, or real werewolves." Hayley said, pointing to herself and Bella.

"Hybrid, along with Emma." I said.

"Original vampire, along with Rebekah and Finn. Sage and Marcel are vampires like us, but are not originals." Elijah said.

"Uh, I was an original vampire, but now I'm in a different body and a witch along with these lovely ladies." Kol said, pointing to Davina and Sophie.

"Okay, that's all done. Now, what is this about Victoria?" I asked, getting to the point. Bella lightly smacked my arm and I gave her a 'what?' look.

"With my gift, I sensed that Victoria was plannin' somethin'. It's gonna be happenin' soon. I've tried do more diggin' with my gift, but all I got was the fact that Victoria has someone working with her." Peter explained.

"Who?" Jacob asked.

"His name is Riley Biers." Leah, Seth, Jacob, and Paul gaped at him. "You know him?"

"Before Charlie was killed, he was helping the Seattle Police Department investigate disappearances. Riley Biers was the first one to disappear." Leah explained. She choked a sob when she mentioned Charlie. Were they close?

"So now we know that this Victoria has a companion, but we must find out what she is planning." Elijah said.

"How do we do that without them knowing?" Seth asked. Sophie and Davina exchanged a look along with Kol, standing up.

"We could do a spell that'll send us to where they are in spirit form. They won't see, hear, smell, or sense us." Sophie explained.

"Do it." Bella said. "I won't to know what they're planning." Davina nodded and the three of them left to get what they needed.

"So Bella," Charlotte spoke up. "How far 'long are ya?"

"I'm four months with twin hybrids. They are vampire werewolf hybrids and really strong kickers." Bella explains, rubbing her stomach once again. I smile at the thought of our babies.

"Congratulations!" Charlotte says.

Bella's POV

"Congratulations!" Charlotte says.

"Thanks. It was unexpected, but it's a great surprise." I said smiling widely. Klaus smiled at me and wrapped his arm around me, pulling me close.

We continued to talk, ignoring the fact that there is a psychotic, flame haired, blood sucking Cold One hell bent on killing me. Sophie, Davina, and Kol came back with herbs, candles, charms, and a grimoire.

They set the candles all over the coffee table and some other parts of the villa.

"What are the candles for?" Paul asked.

"Well, to put them in a easier way, they're like steroids for magic." Kol said. I rolled my eyes at his explanation. Oh yeah, Kol and Emmett will probably get along very well.

Sophie, Davina, and Kol stood around the table. "We're going to need your help in this, Bella. You have perfect memory of her and that'll help since we don't have anything she owns." Sophie told me. I nodded and stood up with the help of Klaus and Leah.

I stood between Sophie and Davina, Kol across from me. The four of us held hands and stood in a perfect circle in front of the open grimoire and the bowl of mixed herbs. Kol, Davina, and Sophie closed their eyes and started to chant in Latin.

I could feel the magic flowing through me from the three of them. Then my eyes started to feel heavy and I was in spirit form in some other place with the three witches.

"Where are we?" I asked them. They didn't answer, just looked around. I looked around too and saw we were near docks and it was night. I looked up and saw the familiar Space Needle. "Seattle." I whisper.

I hear a commotion coming from a warehouse and exchange a look with them. The four of us begin to walk there and try to find the source. I was shocked and terrified by the sight.

Everywhere in sight were Cold Ones. Red eyed, pale skinned, ruthless vampires. Of every age, most of them sparring, sitting around talking, or just doing whatever. I looked around and saw the familiar flaming red hair.

I walked over carefully over to her, ignoring Kol, Sophie, and Davina's quiet calls. I made it close enough to Victoria to see her with two other people. One was a teenage boy with sandy brown hair, pale skin, and blood red eyes. This must be Riley. The other was a woman with a Hispanic beauty and long, curly black hair. Who is she?

"Victoria… Riley… But who the hell is she?" I ask no one in particular.

"I don't know. Maybe Jasper, Peter, and Charlotte know. We should get back." Sophie said. We grabbed hands once again and soon we were back in the villa.

I gasped out and almost lost my footing if it weren't for Klaus, Leah, and Hayley.

"Are you okay?" Leah asked. I nodded and they helped me sit on the couch.

I took deep breaths and tried to tell them about the other person. "There was someone else there. She was hispanic, dark curly hair, blood red eyes, very beautiful." I heard three deep, spine shivering growls and looked up to see Jasper, Peter, and Charlotte's eyes darken.

"Can you get an image of her?" Jasper said in a deep voice that made me shiver and coil back in fear a little. Sophie jogged to the study and came back with a small canvas and black paint. She set the canvas down on the table and poured some of the paint on it, chanting.

The paint began to move and form a picture. The dark haired woman. The painting was finished and Sophie handed it to Jasper. He looked at it with anger and crushed it.

"Maria…" He growled. I coiled back more into Klaus' side.

"Who's Maria?" Rebekah asked.

"She was the one who turned me when I was the youngest major in the confederate war. She turned a bunch of people into newborn vampires for an army just so she could win a battle for land. Then when she ordered people to kill Peter and Charlotte, I turned them and became their sire. I told Peter and Charlotte to leave while I went the opposite direction of where they went. Then I met Alice who was waiting for me at some bar and then we met the Cullens. Well, the rest of the story was all a bunch of crap." Jasper explained. He pulled his sleeves up to reveal a bunch of crescent scars that looks like the one I had before I got my werewolf healing.

"So you're the Major that I've been hearing about." Kol said. He walked up and shaked Jasper's hand. "The whole supernatural fears you. Pleasure to finally meet you in person."

"Pleasures all mine." Jasper says.

"What else did you guys see?" Hayley asks. I looked at each of them with fear boiling in me.

"They've created an army of newborn vampires." I whispered, but everyone could hear me.

"We're going to need a lot more help." Jake said.

"Why don't we head to Forks. They don't know I moved here. Plus it would give us more help, what with the pack and all." I told them.

"Don't forget my hybrids." Klaus said.

"So, how many tickets to Forks, Washington?" Peter asked.
