I wanted to thank Angel for the guest review! I'm glad you love it.

There is a section in this chapter that might be a little gory, but I think it isn't worse than the show. It is italicized for that reason and because it is a flashback. :D

Klaus thought about the poem that he read in the book he took from Gloria. He read the entire thing twice and he still had no idea what the last stanza meant. The rest of the book made sense since it just read that werewolves and vampires are supernatural creatures.

Klaus still wasn't able to decipher the scribbles around the poem. He looked at it under a magnifying glass and was able to make out some letters, but the overall message was still lost to him.

Klaus would just have to show it to Elijah the next time he saw his brother.

Klaus took a sip of the blood he poured into a glass.

Stefan was across the room to get himself a drink.

It had been a couple of days since the two met and their relationship has grown. Klaus has come to like being around Stefan. They share the same views on politics…and torture. Klaus liked hearing about Stefan and his Ripper habits.

Stefan told Klaus about one time where he slayed an entire village.

Stefan had been wandering for days. He was in the country, and there seemed to be no towns nearby. It was evening approaching night.

He hadn't fed for a couple of days. There were plenty of animals around, but he would not go back to a bunny diet. He was a ripper, and he only drank human blood.

Stefan saw lights up ahead. A town.

As Stefan approached the town he saw that the town was very small, only a few streets long, so it was more of a village.

The streets were all empty. Stefan heard voices coming from the tavern. Men were drinking and playing billiards

As Stefan approached, he could smell blood on the inside. Someone must have gotten hurt.

Stefan could feel his eyes change color. His fangs started to drop down from his gums.

He ran around the building purposefully hitting random objects as he went to spook the men inside. Once inside he switched off most of the lamps making the men even more scared. Stefan enjoyed the chase, and the terror on the humans face as Stefan attacked.

The men inside the bar were shaking in fear, too afraid to scream in front of the other men.

Stefan appeared in front of one of them. The man let out a little squeak.

Stefan smiled and let his fangs show. Stefan then bit into the man's neck drawing out the blood.

The other men in the tavern started to scream and curse. Stefan turned to them and started attacking them one by one. He ripped them apart, trying to take in all of their blood.

He went crazy and he couldn't stop. He continued to attack people. After the he finished with all the men in the tavern he went outside and saw that some of the neighbors came out to see what was going on.

One man from a building over tried shooting Stefan; however, the man had bad aim and missed Stefan went after him next. He ran and caught the man by the throat. Stefan bit down into his neck and sucked the blood out of his body. Stefan tried so hard to get the blood from the man's neck that his head snapped clean off the body.

Women screamed. They began to run.

Stefan chased them all down one-by-one. No one was left untouched.

Stefan blacked out. All he wanted was blood, blood, and more blood. It was haunting him and he couldn't get enough.

Stefan walked out of the village the next morning; a trail of red behind him. Bodies were scattered up and down the small, three street town. It started at the tavern, but it escalated. Men, women and children were all attacked. They were ripped apart and no blood was left.


Klaus loved that this baby vampire was a monster. A true Ripper.

Klaus had heard stories of a mass murderer. The chaos was causing Klaus some problems since he was on the run from Mikeal. Klaus will need to teach Stefan some restraint, but Klaus wanted to learn some of Stefan's tricks. When Stefan made the human drink his wife's blood, Klaus was amazed. Klaus want's to learn more about Stefan and his ways of torture. Klaus could use Stefan to help protect his family.

Stefan sat in the chair across for the original. Stefan had his feet up, enjoying the Mikealson apartment. It wasn't big, but it was definitely bigger than his own.

"Stefan, tell me more about you," Klaus said.

"What do you want to know, Nik?"

"Do you have any siblings?" Klaus decided to start out easy before getting into life's philosophy.

"I had a sister as a human, and well, she was a tramp for a lack of a better word."

"I prefer the word strumpet. I call Rebekah one sometimes," Klaus said with a chuckle.

"No my sister is worse, much worse. She had a child out of wedlock, and she didn't stay with her family when she was pregnant, she stayed in a hotel room, having different men each night."

"Ah," Klaus said. "Any other siblings?"

"I have an older brother. He was turned into a vampire shortly after me." Stefan said.

"It's good to spend eternity with family," Klaus said thinking about his one family. Always and forever. He carted them around in coffins for their own protection. They weren't smart enough to handle themselves, and with Mikael out there, Klaus couldn't risk losing any of them.

"Not my brother," Stefan said. "He promised to torture me for all of eternity."

"Then you must have done something terrible, mate."

Stefan took a sip of his liquor. "I forced him to turn."

"That's not terrible. Who wouldn't want to be immortal and full of power?" Klaus asked.

"I'm not sure. It will take a while for him to forgive me, especially since, his 'one true love' burned in a church" Stefan said as he took another drink.

"That does put a damper on spirits," Klaus said with a chuckle.

Stefan didn't say anything else. He has gotten over Katherine Pierce, but Damon still has not. At first Stefan was upset that she perished in a fire, but after all the years, Stefan has moved on.

"Where are you from Stefan?" Klaus asked he did not know much about the younger vampire.

"Here and there, much like yourself I assume," he said.

Klaus put his hand on the bridge of his nose. "Yes, but where did you live while you were human."

"Small town eventually became over run by vampires; you probably never had heard of it," Stefan said.

"Try me," Klaus said. He knew where most of the vampire communities were in the world. He made it one of his priorities to know who was the leader and where. The only community he still had a strong connection was New Orleans, but Klaus left his prodigy in charge, so he knew that everything would be taken care of.

"Mystic falls," Stefan said.

"In Virginia?" Klaus asked. He had heard of that town. It was where his doppelganger was. He needed her to break the curse that was placed on him, but she managed to escape him for the last fifty years or so. He had heard that she died in a church fire…

"The girl that your brother loved, she was in this town," Klaus asked.

"Yes, she was the one that turned both of us."

"Both of you, that couldn't have made your brother happy," Klaus said. It seemed like this women was like Tatia, having two brothers fight over the same girl.

"No, neither of us was very happy, we both were hoping that she would choose us," Stefan said. He stood up to refill his drink.

Two brothers fighting over the same girl, Klaus was certain that this was his doppelganger.

"What was her name?" Klaus asked. He wanted to confirm the identity of this vampire. Perhaps Stefan would know if Katerina really died in the fire or if she was faking it.

"Why does it matter?" Stefan asked getting suspicious. He wanted to know why Klaus was asking all of the questions.

"Just curiosity, mate. What else are you going to do?"

"Fine, Nik. Her name was Katherine Pierce."


There was a guest a while back that suggested that I have "Stefan drop Katherine's name". Originally I wasn't sure that I was going to include her name, but I kept thinking back to the review and I came up with the end of this chapter. I hope whoever made that review liked what I did and is still reading!

Please Review!
