~ So, it's almost been two months. To make up for it... this is the longest chapter so far for the story. Hopefully that will make up for the wait.
~ I now have 9 current stories, so please check them out when you get a chance (if you haven't read them already)

~ I made sure that Jeremy, Caroline, and Bonnie were also in this chapter. Although they are only in it for a little bit, they are still in the chapter. It was going to be in the last chapter, but I ended up not putting it in it. This way this chapter is not mainly Stefan, Elena, Klaus and Damon.

ENJOY!

~Jeremy~

Jeremy sat down, wondering about his sister. He wanted to be with her, but all he could do is sit and wait. He let out a sigh just as Caroline and Bonnie walked in the front door. Bonnie sat down next to him and Caroline sat on a chair.
"Have you heard anything?" Caroline asked in a quiet voice.
"No." Jeremy said. "Not yet."
"She'll be okay." Bonnie said to him.
"How do we know?" Jeremy asked without getting up. "We can't assume she'll be okay."
"It's only been four days Jeremy." Bonnie said quietly to him. "Damon and Stefan will bring her back."
"I know Bonnie, but she's my sister." 'And she's in danger' He added in his head. Anna appeared in front of them, but only Jeremy could see her.
"As long as she doesn't get too attached to Klaus, she should be okay." Anna said to Jeremy.

~Stefan, Elena, & Klaus ~

Elena could tell that Klaus was frustrated with their situation. She didn't know why, but it had something to do with Rebecca. Elena didn't know who Rebecca was, Stefan didn't remember, and Klaus didn't want to tell them.
"This doesn't make any sense." Stefan said to Klaus. "Why don't I remember you?"
"That time gave you a lot of dark holes." Klaus said as they walked through the warehouse. Elena knew that coffins were there, but she didn't know what was inside them.
"If you knew me, then why haven't you said anything?" Stefan asked Klaus.
"I'm a little busy right now." Klaus said to Stefan. "Memory Lane will have to wait."
"What the hell is going on?" Stefan forced Klaus to face him. "Answer me."
"Stefan." Elena said softly, sort of as a warning. She had a sense that you wouldn't want to be on Klaus's bad side. Klaus glanced at Elena before looking at Stefan.
"Let's just say we didn't get off to a brilliant start. To be honest, I hated you."
"Why would you hate him?" Elena asked with curiosity.
"He fancied my dear sister Rebecca." Klaus said to as he looked at Elena. "She fancied him as well." Klaus looked at Stefan.
"Your sister. So I knew another original vampire." Stefan said to Klaus.
"If you can't handle it, then don't ask." Klaus turned around and started to walk away from Stefan and Elena. She could tell that there was something off about both Stefan and Klaus. Elena followed Klaus, with Stefan right behind her. When Elena reached Klaus's side, he opened a coffin. Inside, was laying Rebecca. At the sight of her, images flashed in Elena's head. She remembered that she had stuck a dagger, similar to the one in Rebecca, inside Elijah. He looked the same way that Rebecca looked, minus the clothing. Elena also remembered parts of what happened when she took the dagger out of him. From this, she figured that Rebecca wasn't dead, but just immobilized until the dagger is removed.
"I don't recognize her." Stefan said as Klaus caressed his sister's face.
"Well, don't tell her that." Klaus said to him. "Rebecca's temper is worse than mine." He glanced at Elena before taking the dagger out of Rebecca's chest.

"Time to wake up, little sister." Klaus said to his sister's body after five minutes. "Any day now, Rebecca." He looked at Elena. "She's being dramatic."
"Look, why don't you just tell me what the hell is going on?" Stefan asked Klaus. "I mean, you obviously want me here for a reason, right?"
"Well, you have many useful talents."
"He does?" Elena asked.
"Of course he does love." Klaus said with a smirk towards Elena. "Why else would I allow him to take his brother's place?" Klaus turned his attention back towards Stefan. "In fact, I learned some of my favorite tricks from you." Klaus looked at Elena. "Back in the 20's he was quite the mate. There was the man by the name of Liam Grant, who he made drink his own wife's blood before later killing him." Klaus looked back at Stefan. "I was your number one fan." Klaus started to walk away, with Elena following by his side.
"Why should I believe any of this?" Stefan asked from behind them as he followed them.
"When she wakes up, tell her to meet us at Gloria's bar." Klaus compelled the guard. "Then volunteer your carotid artery and let her feed until you die." Elena watched with some fascination. There was something that just happened that felt familiar to her.
"Where are you going?" Stefan asked as Klaus started to walk away.
"You think I'm lying, Stefan. You and I knew each other. You trusted me with one of your secrets and now I'm going to prove it to you." Klaus said as Elena looked between the two of them.
"How?" Elena asked before Stefan got the chance.
"We're going to his old apartment." Klaus told her before holding out his hand. Stefan watched curiously as Elena took it. He couldn't believe how comfortable she was around Klaus, especially since he was the one to not only kill her, but also her aunt. Stefan couldn't help but hope that if Elena didn't know him and what Klaus was capable of, that she would soon.

~Damon~

Damon walked into Gloria's bar, hoping he could find any news on Elena and his brother. He saw Gloria at the bar, wiping it.
"Well, look what the wind blew in." Gloria said when she lifted her head and saw Damon. "Last I heard, you hated this place." Damon slightly smiled.
"Gloria." He said as he stepped up to the bar. "Damn! If I knew you were going to age like this, I would have stuck around."
"I always did like you better." She said as she turned around and grabbed a shot glass. "But I see your brother is still running in the wrong crowd."
"You've seen him?" Damon asked hopefully.
"With Klaus. Bad combo." She turned around. "They were also with the doppelganger." 'Elena.' He thought worriedly.
"You know where they went?" Damon asked, trying to keep his cool.
"They'll be back here later tonight. They're out running a little errand for me."
"Gloria..." Damon gently grabbed her hand "Please." He was pleading with his eyes. Not only for his brother, but also for Elena. "What kind of errand?"
"You may be cute, but you're still a vampire." She removed his hand, but sensed something from him. "But I will tell you something. The doppelganger..."
"Her name's Elena." Damon quietly said.
"She doesn't remember how she was turned. But I sense that's not here only problem."
"She doesn't remember much."
"But she remembers you." Gloria said. "If you want Elena to be safe, you have to make her regain her other memories."
"How?"
"Make her remember things from when she was human, no matter how painful the memory." She placed his hand onto his. "Good luck." She said before slowly going back to work. Damon stood there for a minute and just thought about what Gloria just told him. 'What will she do if she remembers I turned her?' He couldn't help but think before he turned around. As he started to walk out of Gloria's bar, he couldn't help but think of Elena. He thought of the love he had for her. He thought of her smile and her laugh. When Damon stood outside, he looked up at the sky. 'I will get you back Elena' He thought before walking away.

~Klaus, Elena, and Stefan~

Klaus walked up the stairs with Elena and Stefan behind him. He knew that Stefan wouldn't try anything to take Elena away, at least not this soon. He was glad for this. Klaus was starting to like Elena, but he knew it would take a little bit for Elena to return the feelings. It made it a little frustrating for him because Stefan was around, but that wasn't going to stop him. They stopped in front of a door, that led to Stefan's old apartment.
"What a charming little homestead." Klaus said when he opened the door.
"Lots of dust." Elena said as her eyes wandered around.
"It's been vacant for decades." Stefan said, lying to Elena and Klaus. He wasn't going to tell them that he was here with Katherine and Damon earlier. "Why'd you bring me here?" Stefan asked Klaus.
"Your friend, Liam Grant, the one who drank his wife's blood... I never could figure out why you wanted his name." Klaus said to Stefan. "And then you told me your little secret. It was all part of your special little ritual." It took Stefan a couple of minutes, but then he remembered
"To write it down." He said in a whisper.
"And relive the kill... Over and over again." Elena noticed the small smile on Klaus's face. She felt a little uneasy as Klaus walked towards a bookcase. Both her and Stefan watched as Klaus opened the bookcase, revealing a hidden closet.
"You believe me now?" Klaus asked Stefan after elena took a few steps forward. She couldn't help but feel curious about what was inside. Her head peeked in and saw bottles of alcohol before turning her head to the side. On the wall she saw the list of Stefan's past victims. Her eyes saw the first name. 'Giuseppe Salvatore' A voice inside her head told her that Giuseppe was Stefan's father. "Let's let Stefan look sweetheart." Klaus said to Elena, gently pulling her out of the way. Stefan watched as Elena went to Klaus's side. 'We will get you back Elena' He thought before slowly walking towards the closet. Stefan looked at the list and recognized most of the names. As Klaus and Elena watched Stefan, Klaus put his arm around Elena's shoulders. She knew that at one point her and Stefan were in a relationship, but she was pretty sure it was over. If they were together, he would have been the one to find her in the woods when she was first turned. Stefan or Damon should have been there for her, but instead Klaus was. She watched as Stefan pulled away with a bottle in his hand. Klaus stepped up to his side, with Elena still next to him. "1918." He said before taking the bottle from Stefan with his free hand. "Single malt." He glanced at Elena. "My favorite." Elena took the bottle from Klaus to get a better look at it. "Let's go find someone to pair this with." Elena smiled a little, which didn't go unnoticed by Stefan. "Come on Stefan." Klaus said to Stefan before he and Elena turned towards the hall. Stefan watched them for a second before following them out.

Klaus, Elena and Stefan were walking back into Gloria's. Stefan didn't like what Elena was turning out to be. She was willingly feeding on human blood and straight from the source. He didn't want her to be like he was, but he was slightly comforted by the control she had over her thirst. When they got to the bar, Stefan and Elena sat on opposite sides of Klaus.
"Where's Rebecca?" Gloria asked as she gave them each a beer.
"She'll be here." Klaus said before taking a sip. "I can't just conjure her on demand."
"What's your sister like?" Elena asked Klaus.
"She's loyal, spoiled, very entitled," Elena smiled a little. She could tell that Klaus cared for his sister ", and she's my only sister. You two could get along." Klaus said to her.
"So, you're letting me take my brother's place because you liked the way I tortured innocent people?" Stefan asked Klaus, taking his attention away from Elena.
"Well, that's certainly half of it." He said to Stefan.
"What's the other half?"
"The other half, Stefan," Klaus started to say ", is that you used to want to be my wingman." Elena tuned out of the next conversation between Stefan and Klaus. She tried to think of her family, mainly siblings. Elena remembered Klaus telling her she had a brother, but not his name. That's when she started getting images in her head. A boy, a year younger than her with short brown hair. She started to think that it was her brother, Jeremy. At that moment, Elena started to think that if she really wanted to remember something, all she had to do was think of it. 'How much could I handle?' She couldn't help but think. "Elena?" She heard Klaus's voice ask her, bringing her out of her thoughts.
"I was just thinking." She said before taking a sip from her beer.
"About what?" Klaus asked.
"My brother."
"Do you miss him?" Klaus asked softly.
"I think so, yeah." She said before taking another sip.
"So I'm confused." Stefan said, breaking Klaus's and Elena's attention from each other. They both turned their attention to Stefan. "If we were such great friends, then why do I only know you as the hybrid dick who sacrificed my girlfriend on an altar of fire?" Elena could feel sadness within her. 'Stefan still considers me his girlfriend' She thought. Her eyes looked into his, but he wasn't looking at her.
"All good things must come to an end." 'But he saved me' Elena thought after Klaus spoke. 'He gave me an elixir that brought be back to life. Why would Stefan be mad?'
"You compelled me to forget?" Stefan asked Klaus, which brought Elena out of her thoughts.
"It was time for Rebecca and I to move on." Klaus said. "Better to have a clean slate."
"Couldn't you have taken him with?" Elena asked klaus.
"More people, the easier it is to be found." He said to her.
"You shouldn't have to cover your tracks..."
"Unless you're running from someone." Elena said, finishing for Stefan.
"Storytime's over." Klaus said to Stefan. Stefan turned his head towards the door. He saw Damon, nod his head towards the outside before walking out.
"I need some fresh air." Stefan said before walking out of the bar.

~Outside Gloria's~

Damon was leaning against the building of Glora's bar, trying to stay as still as he could. He waited for his brother to come out as he wondered about Elena. His head turned towards the side when he heard the door open.
"What are you doing here?" Stefan asked. "I said I'd text you."
"I was impatient." Damon said, still leaning against the building. Stefan started to pace, which irritated Damon. "What's been going on?"
"I think Elena remembers Jeremy." Stefan said slowing his pacing. "She said she was thinking about him, which meant she obviously remembers him."
"What else does she remember?" Damon asked as she stopped leaning against the wall.
"I think she remembers me or at least I'm pretty sure she does. But we have more problems than just getting her to remember."
"What?"
"I'm not even sure if it's true, but Klaus says that the only reason that he let me take your spot is because he knew me from the 20's." Damon looked at him with confusion. "He said that he compelled me to forget then and that's why I don't remember any of it."
"He has to be lying."
"But what if he's not?" Stefan stopped and turned towards his brother. "He's shown me proof that backs it up."
"He had to be faking the proof."
"But I don't think he is." Stefan said. "You had to be there." Damon sighed, knowing that he wouldn't get anywhere with his brother.
"What about Elena?"
"I don't know."
"Gloria said something to me earlier." Damon said to his brother. "If we try to make her remember, then she'll regain memories."
"But how do we do that?" Stefan asked, wanting to have Elena remember everything.
"We get her back to Mystic Falls. She needs to be around her friends and not Klaus."
"The problem is getting her back and away from Klaus." Stefan sighed. "I have an idea, but you might not like it."

~Inside Gloria's~

Klaus and Elena were sitting next to each other at the bar. He wanted to take advantage of the time he had alone with Elena.
"So Elena," He started ", are you beginning to remember anything?"
"I think so." Elena said, not looking towards Klaus. "I think I remember my brother Jeremy and that there is another Original."
"There is a whole family of them." Klaus said to Elena, who had turned her head towards him.
"Elijah is one of them then. Like you?"
"He's my brother."
"I think I daggered him once, but then took it out a few days later."
"He saved my life when the Salvatores tried to kill me."
"But then you put the dagger in Elijah, right?" Klaus just gave a nod. "Why did yo do it?"
"He was my family." Klaus said softly to Elena, who could tell that it wasn't something he was used to talking about. "I bring my family everywhere. At least they would be with me and I'd never be alone."
"You're never going to be alone Klaus." Elena said, gently holding his hand.
"Please, call me Nik. My full name is Niklaus, but I only let a few people call me Nik." Elena smiled. She felt like she was getting closer to Klaus and she was feeling happy about it.

While Klaus and Elena were looking at each other, Stefan walked back in. He had told his brother about his plan and he got the reaction that he knew he was going to get. Stefan was going to go through with it anyway, for more than one reason. Stefan couldn't help but feel sad when he saw how Elena was looking at Klaus.
"Get enough fresh air Stefan?" Klaus asked as Stefan walked up behind them.
"Yeah." Stefan simply said.
"Don't get to comfortable mate." Klaus said as he looked at Stefan, his hand still being held by Elena. "We're going to leave soon." Although Klaus was slightly unhappy that he wasn't alone with Elena, he couldn't help but feel happy. With the way Elena has been acting, hopefully she would be his soon. He knew humanity was a weakness, but he was taking a chance with Elena. If it became too difficult, then maybe he'd result to use compulsion. It wasn't something he wanted to use, but he always gets what he wants, no matter what he would have to do.

Klaus held Elena's hand as they walked into the warehouse. Stefan was walking straight behind them, even though he wanted to get Elena and get the hell away from Klaus. It would be stupid to try something with Klaus right there, not to mention his sister would soon join their little group.
"Stay here with Stefan." Klaus said to Elena. "Okay love?" She nodded her head before her hand escaped his. Stefan watched the exchange between the two of them and couldn't help but wonder if Elena would be like she was before. 'We WILL get you back to your old self' Stefan thought.

"Rebecca... It's your big brother." Klaus said to the warehouse when he approached the coffin and noticed it was empty. He knew his sister was listening and he knew that both Stefan and Elena were listening, but that wasn't on his mind right now. "Come out, come out, wherever you are." He walked down away from the coffin before getting stabbed with the dagger.
"Go to hell, Nik!" His sister yelled to him. Elena could hear the anger in Rebecca's voice.
"Don't pout." Klaus said to his sister after taking the dagger out of his chest. He watched it drop to the ground before looking at his sister. "You knew it wouldn't kill me."
"Yeah, but I was hoping it would hurt more." Rebecca said to her brother, looking straight into his eyes. After a second, she started walking away, but was being trailed by her brother.
"I understand that you're upset with me, Rebecca... So I'm going to let that go." He said as he put his hand on her shoulder. "Just this once. Brought you a little peace offering." Klaus looked into the direction where Elena and Stefan were. "You can come in." Elena and Stefan looked at each other and Elena gave Stefan a nod, knowing that Klaus wasn't talking to her. Stefan let out a breath before walking into view of both Originals.
"Stefan..." Rebecca said softly when she saw him. Even though she was out of sight, Elena could hear the emotion in Rebecca's voice. 'She must miss him' Elena thought just as Klaus walked up to Stefan.
"Now you remember." Klaus compelled him. He knew from the first moment Stefan stood in front of them that there was no vervain in his system. Klaus was slightly thankful for it, because he knew that if something happened, that he would have no trouble using compulsion on Stefan.
"Rebecca." Stefan said when he saw her in front of him. He took a couple of steps forward, but was stopped by a voice from behind him.
"Stefan." Stefan turned around and saw Klaus standing behind him.
"I remember you." Stefan said when he saw Klaus. "We were friends."
"We are friends." Klaus said as he took a couple of steps closer to Stefan. "You can come out now sweetheart." Klaus said, to Elena who heard him. She slowly walked out of were she was and was immediately noticed by Rebecca.
"You brought me a snack." Rebecca said, letting her veins show before taking a few steps forward.
"Leave her alone becca." Rebecca turned her head towards her brother. "Elena here happens to be the last doppelganger."
"Finally that line ends." Rebecca said before Klaus stepped closer to her.
"Gloria tells me you know how to contact the original witch." Klaus said, with his eyes on her face.
"The original witch?" Rebecca asked.
"Well you do have that Gloria needs." Elena and Stefan watched as Rebecca reached for her neck. Worry started to spread across her face.
"Where's my necklace? What did you do with it? I never take it off!" 'How important is the necklace?' Elena asked herself.
"I don't know. I didn't touch it." Klaus said to his sister.
"We need to find it, Nik. Now, I want it back!" Klaus placed his hands on his sister's side. For that split second, he forgot Elena was watching. Elena watched with how Klaus was treating his sister. She was slightly taken back by his behavior, but not completely surprised by it.
"Tell me that's not what she needs, Rebecca!" Klaus shouted in anger. Rebecca shoved his hand off of her and started to look through her coffin. There was only one person in the room that knew what happened to it, but didn't know where it was. When Klaus made Stefan remember the 20's, he remembered that the necklace he gave Elena had belonged to Rebecca. He glanced at Elena, who was at his side. Stefan noticed that the necklace wasn't around her neck. 'Where could it be?' He asked himself before turning his attention back towards Rebecca. As Rebecca savagely searched for her necklace, Klaus walked to Elena's side.

~ Originally, I was going to have Elena wear the necklace, but they'll need a reason to go back to Mystic Falls later in the story.
~ There is a possibility of Katherine showing up in the next chapter, especially with what happens in the next episode.
~ There will be more Kelena (I think that's the couple name) scenes in the future, but it will be a little bit before Delena scenes happen and I will try to have a Stelena scene every once and a while.

~ I have an update planned for next month, hopefully there are a lot of reviews that will help me write the next chapter.

R&R 'till the next update
