Katherine's POV
I smiled at the shock in their faces.
"What are you doing here?" Kendall asked protectively.
"Ah, Kendall always the leader" I commented.
"What are you doing here?" he repeated with a bit more anger.
"I came to see you guys!" I answered happily.
"What about if we don't want to see you?" James said.
"Jamie...I know that isn't true" I pouted.
He cringed when I mentioned his former nickname.
"You're meant to be in...the tomb" Carlos told me.
I laughed and replied "I was never in the tomb"
"What?" Logan asked.
"I made a deal with...someone and I managed to get away" I answered.
"How?" Kendall asked.
"Well this someone wanted something that was in my possession so I made a deal with him...he told me about the vampire round up and then you idiots nearly ruined the plan but everything worked out fine" I explained.
"Who was this someone?" James asked venom dripping in his voice.
I looked over at him 'Wow he is hot'. I then decided to walk over him and touch his chest "Wow you have been working out" I laughed.
But instead of laughing with me, like he used to, he slapped my hand away and his face remained as hard as a stone.
"Chill Jamie, don't want your beautiful face to stay like that" I told him smiling.
"Just...leave Katherine" he told me.
"What?" I asked shocked.
"You are just here to mess up our lives again and we aren't going to let that happen" Kendall answered.
"I came here for you" I told them.
They looked at me not believing anything I said.
"Although it has bothered me that you two have fallen in love with someone else" I scowled while pointing at Logan and Kendall.
"Why? You never loved us" Logan replied.
"Is it so wrong for me to want all four of you?" I asked innocently.
"YES!" they shouted.
"But you still love me don't you?" I asked looking at Carlos with wide eyes.
"Not a chance" he scoffed.
I couldn't believe that my sweet Carlos said that.
"You never answered James' question; who was it that you made a deal with?" Logan asked.
"Maybe I don't want to share that bit of information" I sang.
"We don't have time for this" Kendall sighed.
They all started to leave making sure that the humans were in front but I pulled James back.
"What?" he shouted.
"Come on Jamie, you can't stay angry with me" I pouted.
"Pouting doesn't look good on a woman of your age" he smirked.
"Ouch" I told him pretending to be hurt.
"Truth hurts" he shrugged.
"Well the truth doesn't always need to be told" I reminded him.
"Honesty is the best policy" he rhymed.
"Nobody like a rhymer...even though I'm in love with one" I said hoping he would catch on.
"Really? Who's the unlucky guy?" he asked.
"I guess that would be you" I answered stepping forward only for him to step backwards.
"It was always you, James" I told him.
James' POV
As she said those words to me I couldn't help but laugh and shake my head.
"I don't have time for your games" I told her.
"This isn't a game Jamie, would you like to play one?" she asked trying to be innocent.
"How can I play a game without knowing the rules?" I asked.
"No rules, James!" she laughed.
"Well I don't want to play if I already know the outcome" I told her.
She stared at me and before she could say anything that might make me fall into her trap I told her "I can't trust you, Katherine. So just leave"
I then left the room leaving her with her thoughts.
Katherine's POV
"Katherine we need to leave now" Mr. Lockwood told me.
I looked back at the bodies of James, Carlos, Logan and Kendall.
"I'll be one second" I promised him.
I ran over to James and whispered "I'll see you soon" and left one last kiss on his lips.
"I'll be back sooner than you think, Jamie" I whispered into the room and left.
James' POV
I joined the others; Gustavo was in the middle of a freak out.
"I thought you compelled him not to freak out!" I reminded Kendall.
"There was a loop hole" he sighed.
"What?" I asked.
"Kendall told him not to freak out about the information we told him, Katherine showing up is a completely different subject...therefore he freaked out" Logan explained.
"Where's Carlos?" I asked.
"Right behind you" he replied.
"Hi, where did you go?" I asked very confused by his sudden appearance behind me.
"I was worried...because when we went out you weren't with us. So I went back to make sure you were ok, and I heard you talking to Katherine...are you ok?" he asked me genuinely worried.
"I'm fine Carlos, seriously I told her to leave and I hope she listened" I replied.
"But you didn't hear what she said when you left" he told me.
"What?" I asked.
"She said 'I'll be back sooner than you think, Jamie' and then she left!" Carlos panicked.
"Carlos, calm down. Lets' solve one problem at a time!" Kendall said.
"What's the first problem?" Carlos asked.
Kendall pointed to Gustavo who was pacing and trying to process everything that was going on.
"Kelly do you know how to calm him down?" Logan asked her.
"Not really, this is the first time we have been told about vampires and I don't think that this is going to be a regular thing" she shrugged.
"Think about it we haven't even got to the scary stuff yet and he has already freaked out! There is no way that we can tell him anymore!" I told them.
"There's more?" Gustavo asked temporarily out of panic mode.
"Yeah but we don't think that you'll be able to handle it...maybe one day we'll tell Kelly" Kendall considered.
"I can handle it!" Gustavo argued.
"Dude! You just saw Katherine and had a panic attack!" Carlos reminded him.
"That was unexpected though, I didn't know that she would just...show up!" he defended.
"Yeah he defiantly can't handle this!" Logan agreed.
"So what do we do?" I asked.
"We could compel him to forget, that gets him out of danger!" Logan suggested.
"Danger?" Gustavo squeaked.
"That proves it! You are not ready!" Kendall shouted.
"How?" he asked.
"I say the word 'danger' and you instantly get scared" Logan told him.
"You caught me off guard" Gustavo defended again.
"But with this information you always need to be on guard!" I told him.
"Yeah, you should try and remain calm and collected...like Kelly!" Carlos advised.
"Surely when you guys found all of this out you also went into panic mode" Gustavo argued.
"And you haven't been listening!" Kendall shouted.
Gustavo looked confused so I decided to tell him "We were in 'love' with Katherine so we didn't freak out or tell anyone...we kept her secret because we 'trusted' her" while putting air quotes around the words love and trust.
"So you didn't even freak out on the inside?" he asked.
I shook my head "We were basically compelled to love her"
"I never compelled you Jamie" Katherine said from behind me.
I turned round and told her "Stop doing that!"
"Well believe what you want but I never compelled you, our feelings for each other were real!" she tried to convince me.
"No they weren't" I argued.
"James, why is she back?" Carlos asked while standing behind me.
"Yeah Katherine, why are you back?" Kendall asked.
"Well it seems that you and Logan have moved on and I'm now fine with that, what I'm not fine with is imagining my Jamie with somebody else" she explained.
"Stop calling me that!" I shouted.
She tilted her head and looked at me "And I'm not yours! I'm not an object!" I added.
"I'm back because I want James back!" she announced.
"Why?" Logan asked.
"Because it was always him, it always will be" she answered.
"Just like how it was always Stefan?" I asked.
Her eyes went wide "Yeah that's right, I have spoken with Damon recently!" I told her.
"No, I was wrong..."she started to say,
"And Stefan has Elena so I'm just your second choice, did you really think that these past 145 years I was waiting for you? Because I wasn't! I don't love you!" I yelled trying to make her understand.
Her face turned angry and she ripped the leg off of a bench in the hallway.
She ran up to me and plunged it into my stomach.
"Again believe what you want but you will come back to me" she whispered in my ear as she pulled out the leg and ran off.
I fell to the ground clutching my stomach.
"James, are you ok? Should I call an ambulance?" Kelly panicked rushing for her phone.
"NO!" we all shouted.
She looked at us strangely so I told her "It'll heal by itself...back in the studio, Carlos was bleeding but luckily it healed before you looked at it"
"Plus you can't take a vampire to hospital" Kendall added.
"Why not?" Gustavo asked.
We looked at each other and sighed.
"We're dead" Carlos reminded him
"So they'll get suspicious when we don't have a heart rate" Logan told them.
They nodded finally understanding the situation.
"Ok, we need to leave and get you blood instantly" Logan ordered. Sometimes he loves playing the 'doctor' but it can get annoying.
"But...my diet!" I whined between gasps.
"James...you can't put on weight" Carlos told me.
"No, I have been on a blood diet, I'm trying not to get addicted" I replied totally serious.
"James" Kendall sighed "That isn't going to happen again!"
"How do you know?" I challenged.
"Because we are stronger now and we have each other!" he answered.
"What does he mean by 'that won't happen again?' what won't happen?" Gustavo asked.
"Back when we were first vampires and I started drinking blood, we all got addicted...but I was the worst" I admitted.
"Come on James, we were all pretty terrible but that is the past now!" Logan told me.
"Well that is what we are doing...explaining the past and this is part of it!" I argued.
"But we don't have to explain this part...we promised that we would keep it a secret if we needed to" Kendall reminded me.
"We don't need to hear the full details..." Kelly said.
"Just a few minor ones" Gustavo added.
"It's noting big" Carlos assured them.
"What is it?" Gustavo asked impatiently.
"We went...bloodlust" I answered.
"What?" Kelly asked.
"We were...crazy for blood. It took over everything and we couldn't think about anything but our next meal" Logan explained.
"How did you stop?" Gustavo asked.
"We met up with Stefan and his friend" Kendall replied.
"Lexi" we all said simultaneously.
"Lexi, these are my friends...Kendall, James, Logan and Carlos" Stefan announced.
"Sorry we don't look very...presentable at the moment" I apologized knowing that blood was running down from my chin.
"No worries, this is exactly how I found Stefan" she replied.
We looked at her, confused by how she was calm and didn't want blood as much as we did.
"I can teach you a better way" she told us but kept her eyes fixed on me.
"What do you mean by 'a better way'" Kendall asked.
"You don't need to do this, there is a better way of being able to get blood" she told us.
"How?" Logan asked, he seemed suspicious of Lexi but then again he was suspicious of every new vampire that we meet...not that we meet that many.
"Firstly you don't have to kill the human if you want to stick to human blood, or you can turn to animal blood. It's not as strong but it fills the hunger and people won't want to hunt you down for killing towns" she explained.
We weren't sure what she was going on about. Who could give up the sweet taste of human blood?
"Follow me" she ordered.
We were fascinated by her authority, and decided to follow her to learn her strange ways.
"No wonder you guys got into so much trouble! You are too trustworthy!" Kelly scorned.
"I've been told that it is a common mistake" I shrugged.
"But we were lucky that we followed Lexi" Kendall told them optimistically.
She decided to teach us separately; apparently we were more tolerable that way. I didn't know if I wanted to be alone with her she was quite intimidating.
"James, as we walk through here tell me what you feel" she told me.
We walked through an infirmary, bodies were everywhere.
"All these men have either died or are dying" she added.
"I don't feel anything" I moaned trying to hold myself back from the blood escaping from their bodies.
"Come on James, you can do this" she encouraged.
"Why is it so important?" I asked.
"Because once you let in all of the pain and guilt then you can get to the good stuff" she answered.
"Like what?" I pushed.
"All you need to know is that as a vampire your senses are heightened, when you hurt you really hurt...but when you love..." she finished the sentence with a smile not words but I could guess them anyway.
"So I need to let the pain, guilt and hurt in" I said.
She nodded and we walked past the bodies again but this time I felt different. Every time I saw a different body sadness washed over me...I thought of their devastated families and how they have to live their lives without their husbands and sons.
My breathing became faster and heavier.
"I...need to get out of here"
"Just let it all out" she told me.
"So this girl, basically made you feel emotions again" Kelly said.
I nodded "She made us realise how we were acting and then we decided to change and that is how we became ourselves" Kendall explained.
"And she successfully got you to drink animal blood instead of human blood?" Gustavo asked.
We all nodded "Even though we aren't technically stronger than other vampires, it was the better option"
"So how does a vampire become 'stronger' than another?" Kelly asked.
"It depends how old you are" Carlos answered.
"Seriously?" Gustavo asked shocked.
"Yeah, turns out age isn't just a number" I joked.
We laughed half-heartedly but it quickly vanished.
"What happened next in your life story?" Gustavo asked.
"Yeah we want to know, it's been a few decades since we last saw you" a voice said from behind us.
"I'm sure this is the part where I left, defiantly need a catch up" another voice added.
Hope you liked it! Any guesses to who the two people are? Hehe review please?
