Chapter five: Everything changes.
April slowly opened her eyes. The clock showed it was seven in the morning. She turned to her back and Kol was nowhere to be seen. She assumed that he had already left since last night. She grabbed her towel and made her way to the bathroom. She looked at the mirror and was surprised by her own reflection. Her appearance seems to change. She is no longer that chubby cheek April. Her hair became dark brown instead of raven black. The curl on her hair is perfectly done. Her skin became fairer than usual and her blue eyes remain the same. She quickly undressed her pyjamas and took a quick shower. She quickly put on her robe after done bathing and walked out of the bathroom.
April opened her closet and stared at it. She took out her yellow short dress and brown cardigan and closed back the closet. She quickly changed and made her way to the dressing table. She sat down and starts brushing her hair to the side. When she looked up at the mirror, she saw the beautiful blonde Mikaleson standing a few meters away from her. April was startled for awhile. She stood up from her seat and turned to Rebekah.
"April, tell me what happened last night? Did my brother..." Rebekah paused and vamp sped in front of April. Her eyes opened wide. She put both her hands on to April's wrist.
"No way! That's impossible. What did he do to you, April? Speak!" Rebekah's raised her voice while gripping April's shoulder tight. April was scared. She didn't know how to reply her. Without a blink, Rebekah vanished.
Meanwhile, at the Mikaelson's mansion...
Rebekah stomped into the house making her heels clicked really loud. Her facial expression concerned Klaus, who was sitting on the couch with his sketch book and pencil on his hand. Klaus looked at her frowning expression and smiled.
"What's wrong, Bekah? You don't look happy... Is there something bothering you right now?" Klaus's voice was calm.
"Where is Kol? He needs to do some serious explanation to me!" She gritted her teeth as she said Kol's name.
"Well... Kol left town for awhile. He needed to do some things. What is wrong love? What did he do till he turned my little sister into a fierce lioness?" Klaus smirks.
"That pathetic brother of yours turned my best friend into one of us now! And he is nowhere to be seen. Irresponsible, much?" Rebekah stood there controlling her tears. She loves April like a precious friend. She wants her to have her best human life. Not to forget her future. Now, that dream of hers to see her best friend happy and smiling won't be happening. Klaus studied Rebekah's expression. That expression on her face is rarely put on her face. Klaus vamp sped to his sister and wiped her tears.
"Hmm... since you are my favourite sibling, I shall lend you a hand. I promise to help you take care of April. Since she is the only friend you have. But, do remember this little sister; I am still kind of mad at her for releasing you from the dagger. Well, let bygones be bygones. And once Kol is back, he and I shall have a little chat!" Klaus hugged his beloved little sister.
"Thank you, Nik!" She hugged him back and went upstairs. She loves April like her own little sister. April seems to be loyal to her. That is one of the reason why she is very protective of her and now, Kol turned her into a monster. Rebekah took out her phone and texted April.
{In the text A (April)/ R (Rebekah)}
R- Hey April, sorry about leaving you just like that.
A- Oh! That is alright. Have you seen Kol? He promised me to teach me how to hunt. I am so hungry and I can't get out because the sun is hurting me.
R- Ermm... Kol left town. He needed to clear some things up! Don't worry, love. I will get you a daylight ring and bring you to hunt.
A- Okay. I will be waiting. Oh, when you reach my house, just enter it. I can't move due to the sunlight.
Rebekah frowned slightly. She just simply dislike Kol's attitude after what he did to her best friend. It changes everything. She slides her phone into her pocket and made her way to April's house. While she was on her way to April's house, she bumped onto the three BFFs; Elena, Caroline and Bonnie. She looked at them with her cold eyes and smirks devilishly.
"Hello ladies! Girls outing without me?" She gave them that sarcastic tone.
"What do you want Rebekah?" Caroline frowned.
"Well, good that I bumped into you girls. I need your help, Bonnie" She looked at the witch who is hiding behind Elena.
"Why would she want to help you?" Elena interfered.
"Simple. She don't help me, April Young will die. Cause of death..." She looked up, pretending to think and added, "Burnt by the sunlight." She smirks slightly
"What did you do to her?" Elena freaked out. Caroline and Bonnie widened their eyes.
"Uh..Uh. Not me but my brother, Kol! He is kind of having a little obsession with her. He didn't think twice.. He fed her with his blood and killed her." She raised her eyebrow and folds her arms.
Elena became worried and concerned at the same time. She turned to Bonnie, giving her the signal to do what Rebekah told her to. Bonnie was in doubt for few seconds and finally she nodded.
"Fine, I will do her a daylight ring." Bonnie said unwillingly. She had no choice but to do it or else April will die.
"Good! Now, take this ring, do your hocus pocus and pass it to me instantly." Rebekah took out a lapis lazuli ring and handed it to Bonnie. Bonnie took the ring and sat down on the bench nearby. She placed the ring on her grimoire and chanted a spell. All of them were looking at her.
"It's done. Give it to her." Bonnie passed it to Rebekah. She packed her stuff and stood up.
"Leaving so soon? Why don't the three of you follow me? I am going to April's house to check up on her." Rebekah's voice was polite this time. "Well, since you used to be her babysitter, why don't you pay a visit on her, Elena?" Rebekah added.
They looked at each other and back to Rebekah. They nodded their head lightly.
Chapter six: Visiting hour is over
Rebekah stood in front of April's door. Right behind her was Elena, Bonnie and Caroline. Rebekah opened the door and stepped inside. The three girls entered the house. They did not have to be invited in since April is already dead.
"April?" Elena called out her name as they searched for her. While they were looking for April, something stopped them from searching. Elena, Caroline and Rebekah stood at their position. Bonnie looked at them.
"What is wrong with you girls?" Bonnie asked curiously.
"Blood!" Caroline whispered. Rebekah vamp sped upstairs and opened April's door. The others followed from behind. Elena, Caroline and Bonnie's mouth felt opened when they saw April on the bed feeding on a lady while Kol sat next to her, stroking her hair lovingly.
"That is enough, love. She is already dead." Kol lift up April's chin slowly and wiped her mouth. He pushed the dead body on the floor with the other dead victims. "Ah... Sister, what is your reason to bring those ladies here?" He added looking at them and smirked devilishly.
"What are you doing Kol?" Rebekah frowned as she saw all the victims lying dead on the floor.
"Relax darlings, I am teaching April how to survive. You see, I turned her and she needs my help. She is doing perfectly fine. Oh and I got her a daylight ring, necklace and bracelet. Now... why are they here?" Kol said as he pushed April's head slowly, leaning onto his chest.
"Teaching her? That is not the way, Kol! Let her go... Or I will kill you." Elena threatened him.
"Ohhh... I am scared. My body is shaking right now." Kol replied her sarcastically. Out of nowhere, April vampire speed to Elena and pinned her to the wall.
"You are not going to hurt or kill my maker. You heard me!" April's voice was loud and she growled at the end of her sentence. Kol and Rebekah were shocked for awhile. Caroline let go of April's hand!
"April! What is wrong with you? What was that for?" Caroline frowned as she widened her eyes.
"What was that for? That is for lying straight in my face. You lied to me Elena. How could you? I remembered everything. Where are those promises where you will help me out and help me go through all the pain?" Veins began to appear under her eyes. Kol stood up and vampire speed to April. He rested his hand around her waist and nuzzled his nose in her hair.
"Relax, April! Your emotions are heightened. Sister, do me a favour. Pack all April's clothes. She is going to stay with me. And as for the three of you, do not try to test my patience!" Kol looked at them with his narrowed eyes. He pulled April closer to him, making her feel protected.
"Now..." Kol said as he looked into Elena's eyes and compelled her. "I want you to tie both of your friends up and obey my rules!" Elena repeated what he said and held both Bonnie and Caroline's hand tight. She dragged them to the chair and tied time. April frowned slightly as she looked at Kol.
"What are you doing, Kol?" April asked.
"I am teaching them some lesson and at the same time... well I need some fun. That is what happened when they didn't tell the truth to you, April." Kol smirked as he took out a scissors from April's study desk.
"Now Elena love, Take this scissors and stabbed Caroline's palm." He held out the scissors. Elena took it and did what he asked to. Caroline screamed in pain. April was shocked for awhile.
"Kol, stop it. Can we just go?" April held his arm. Kol looked down on her hand that was holding his arm. He looked back at her and smile.
"Let me finish this." He walked towards Bonnie and compelled her. "You will not remember what I've said. I want you to use your magic on Elena and Caroline. Hurt their mind with your power." Bonnie looked at him and nodded. She began to look at Caroline and Elena. She used her mind power and hurt both of them mentally. "You can stop now, Bonnie. That was just simply a warning to the three of you. You are free from my compulsion. Goodbye." The three girls blinked and noticed April, Kol and Rebekah were nowhere to be seen. Caroline looked at Bonnie and Elena.
"This is too much. We must stop him. He will be a bad influence to April. She needs the correct ones to teach her. Not him." Caroline said as she took out her phone and dialled the button.
"Who are you calling?" Elena asked with curiosity.
"I am calling Klaus. Hold on for a second..." Caroline talked on the phone. She mentioned about meeting him and told him what happened. Elena over heard their conversation.
"Listen here Caroline. I have made a promise to Rebekah to protect April. I can't break the promise because family comes first." Klaus put down the call. Caroline sighed loudly.
"We are going to lose April. She is under Originals protection. We need to do something." Caroline said.
"Why don't we dagger Kol or Rebekah? In that way we can bring April back to our side." Elena suggested. Caroline and Bonnie looked at each other.
"Well, I'm in. April deserve a happy life. I mean free from them. She is not her little puppy. She needs freedom." Bonnie spoke the truth.
"But where do we find the dagger? Kol and Rebekah have it!"Caroline looked at them.
"Guessed what? Stefan managed to steal from Rebekah. I managed to find it. Well technically, she surrendered it to him. So we need to choose. Should we dagger Kol or Rebekah?" Elena arc her eyebrow as she hold the dagger on her hand. Bonnie and Caroline smiles as they agree with Elena's plan.
"I vote, Kol." Caroline said
"Me either." Bonnie replied.
"Alright ladies, get ready. We have an original to dagger." Elena smiles widely.
