I almost had this chapter up before I went to school, but I didn't want to be late. I ended up finishing it at school, because I had nothing else to do.
~ In this chapter, I'm adding a little bit of what people like, a jealous Damon.

JasmineChyanne: I had already choosen who Chelsea is going to end up with, but I'm not so sure anymore. Right now, it depends on how the season ends. Depending on how the season ends, she 'might' just chose the one that will let me continue the story for the inevitable season 4.

Psycho17: Klaus is also in this chapter :) I can say, without ruining when, Klaus mentions the dream because he get's slightly pissed. You're right, Chelsea can't be claimed, but that won't stop Damon or Klaus.

ENJOY!

Chelsea's POV

Rebekah sat down next to Stefan and looked at me and Damon. He explained why they came back to Mystic Falls in 1912.

"So, Zachariah Salvatore was your nephew?" Rebekah asked.
"Well, our father knocked up one of the maids during the Civil War, she had a son. But as far as everyone else knew, Stefan and I were dead. Family name had to go somewhere." Damon explained before taking a drink from his glass.
"And, uh, your family owned the logging mills back then?" Rebekah asked Damon.
"You're full of a lot of questions."
"I'm just researching the town history. I grew up here after all."
"You know you don't have to disguise your true motives… if you want more sex, all you have to do is ask."
"There's not enough liquor in the world."
"It couldn't have been that bad." I said as I looked at Rebekah. She grabbed the bottle that was in front of me and Stefan.
"Oh, come on, it was too good for you to be this hostile." Damon said to Rebekah. Without looking, I knew Damon was probably smirking. Stefan picked up his glass and the bottle that Rebekah was holding and walked around Damon, sitting on the other side of him. "You'll have to excuse my little brother. He's jonesing for some O positive."
"I'm not jonesing." Stefan said to Damon before taking a drink from his glass.

Rebekah moved to the seat next to me.
"So, did they ever catch the killer?" She asked Damon.
"Nope." Damon said, popping the 'p'. "Wrote it all off on vampires."
"Maybe it was a vampire."
"That's my thinking." I said, looking from Rebekah to Damon. "It makes sense if it is considering who the victims are."
"Yeah, yeah, maybe it was a vampire, Damon." Stefan said, which made Damon look at him.
"Don't think for a second you didn't cross my mind too, brother. But those murders weren't your style, were they? Plus there were no other vampires circulating then." Damon said before taking a drink from his glass.
"Well, there was one other vampire. Remember Sage?"
"Ohh, right, Sage. Speaking of great sex." Damon turned his head towards me. He was smirking and I couldn't help but roll my eyes.
"You better include me on that list." I said to him.
"If I don't, would you be jealous?" Damon asked me in almost a whisper.
"I knew a Sage once." Rebekah said, but Damon continued to look into my eyes. "Trashy little thing." After a moment, Damon looked at Stefan.
"You really think it was Sage who was killing all those founders back then?" Damon asked.
"Town questioned every grown man in Mystic Falls. Probably never occurred to them that a woman could have done it." Stefan said to Damon.
"Woman are just as dangerous as men." I said to Damon. "People were just sexiest back then."
"Some still are." Rebekah said to me before taking a drink from the bottle.

"So, uh, tell me more about your old relatives." Rebekah asked after finishing the bottle. She set the empty bottle on the bar and the bartender took it away. "I heard they tore down half the woods to build this town." The bartender put a full bottle down. Rebekah went to grab it, but Damon got to it first.
"Easy there, lushy pants. It's been a hoot and a half but it's boy's plus Chelsea," Damon nudged me with his elbow ", night and you weren't invited." Damon stood up and walked away with Stefan.

My phone vibrated as I got up. I pulled it out and noticed that he was calling. Rebekah stood up next to me and looked at my screen.
"Oh, it's Nik." I glanced at Rebekah, who seemed to have a smile on her face. "I guess he wants to talk to you." She said before walking towards Stefan and Damon.
"I thought you were just going to text." I said when I answered.
"I couldn't help but want to hear your voice." Klaus said to me. My eyes were on Damon, who gave me a jealous glare. I started to walk towards them.
"Missed me that much?" I heard a slight chuckle on the other end.
"Just making sure you're okay."
"I'm fine." I sat down next to Stefan. "Your sister gave me a ride home. I'm with her right now if you two want to talk." I looked at Rebekah.
"I'll see her when she gets home, but what about you?"
"Stop it Nik, you're going to make Damon jealous." Rebekah said, as she stood behind me.
"That's just a little extra that I get out of this." Damon turned away and started to throw darts at the dartboard. "I'll check up on you later love."
"Bye Klaus." I said before hanging up

"So, let's just say Sage was killing everyone in 1912." Damon said, without looking back towards me. "Who the hell is doing it now?" Stefan started to rest his head on his hand. "It's not that psycho, Dr. Fell. She's a woman."
"So you're saying that woman can't kill people?" I asked him before taking a sip from Stefan's drink before giving it back.
"There's no way she could stab three grown men." Damon said, ignoring me. He threw a dart at the board, but it was caught by Rebekah in between her fingers.
"That's a bit sexist." She said, taking a step towards Damon.
"Thank you." I said. Rebekah looked back towards me before looking to Damon.
"A woman could easily kill a man, with the right motivation." She said to him.
"You just, uh, don't give up, do you?" Stefan asked, with slight annoyance in his voice.
"Why are you so grumpy?" Rebekah asked as she looked at me and Stefan.
"He's on a master cleanse." Damon turned towards me and Stefan. "Trying to be a better man and all." Damon glanced at me before looking to Stefan.
"You know, you were a lot more fun in the '20s." Rebekah said as she looked at Stefan. Damon poked her with his elbow.
"Don't rile him up." He advised before stepping up to the table and grabbing the bottle. "He's testy when he's being self-righteous"
"I'm not being self-righteous, Damon." Stefan started to say to Damon. "I'm just not interested in slaughtering innocent human beings anymore."
"Oh, okay, fair enough. My mistake." Damon took out a book from his jacket which was lying on a table near us. "You use to be self-righteous." Damon opened the book and started to read from it. "Dear diary, Damon has lost his way, though I have pulled my own life together he continues to waste his." Rebekah took it from Damon.
"Ouch." She started to read from it. "His bitterness consumes him. He is nothing but blackness and vile." She gave it to me. "Oh, judgy." I looked at it.
"Should I tell him the truth?" I said, pretending I was reading from it. "I've felt it ever since I arrived back. The way he makes me feel. I shouldn't feel this way about my brother but," Stefan snatched it from my hands, closed it, and set it on the table.
"This Chelsea is funny." Rebekah said with a smile.
"I try." I smirked at Rebekah.
"Well, this is fun." Stefan said with sarcasm in his voice.
"You know, if I'm being honest," Rebekah turned to Damon ", you didn't seem like much fun either, Damon."
"I wasn't. The woman I was in love with was stuck in a tomb and she wasn't getting out for a hundred years." Damon said.
"She was out, but didn't want you to know." I said to Damon.

"I wasn't having any fun at all." Damon said after taking a drink from the bottle. "Sage showed me a way to enjoy feeding from humans, a way to relish in the ways of being a vampire. She said to pick out the ones that secretly craved attention. It made for a more satisfying meal."
"That sounds like Sage alright." Rebekah said as she looked at Damon.
"How did you know her?" Damon asked.
"She was obsessed with my brother Finn, over 900 years ago."
"Eww, Finn?" Rebekah gave me a nod. "Gross."
"Wait, Finn?" Damon asked. "As in creepy suicidal guy?" I noticed that Stefan was hitting the table with his ring again.
"You're doing it again." I said to him.
"Alright, you know what," Stefan got up and took his coat off the back of the chair he was sitting on ", I need to, uh, I gotta get out of here."
"Sure." Damon watched Stefan. "First, admit you're jonesing."
"Damon, I'm not…" Stefan couldn't finish before Damon rushed to him and held him by the collar.
"Admit it." Damon said, with his face in front of Stefan's.
"Okay, fine, I'm freaking out." Stefan pushed Damon's arms off. "I'm ready to eat the entire wait staff, why do you need to hear me say it?"
"Because I'm feeling a little self-righteous too." Damon said before Stefan walked away, making his way to the back door.

Damon and Rebekah started to follow Stefan out the back door and I decided to follow them.
"So he doesn't want to drink human blood?" Rebekah asked after a moment.
"He has an eternally guilty conscious." Damon said to Rebekah.
"Funny. When I knew him in the 20s, he didn't have any conscious at all." Rebekah said. "One of the things I liked most about it. Can't possibly think he can survive without feeding."
"You underestimate him Rebekah." I said to her. "The whole time before your brothers showed, he mainly fed on animals."
"He's determined to live his life pursuing one extreme or the other." Damon explained to Rebekah. "He's a stubborn one, my brother." Damon stopped and looked at a woman who got out of a car. "Uh, think I'm gonna need some help with this one."
"I'm gonna go." I said which made Rebekah turn to me. "I may feed on humans, but I'm not going to help you guys with this." Damon glanced at me before I sped away, leaving them to whatever they were going to do.

I was sitting on my bed, playing tetris on my phone. A pop up opened on the screen saying that I had an incoming call. 'I'll just start another game later.' I thought before I answered.
"Another call Klaus?" I said into the phone. "I'm beginning to think you're obsessed with me." I heard him chuckle on the other end. "And what happened to the text?"
"I could always send you one after we're done talking." Klaus suggested to me.
"Well what's the point of it then? You've already called me, twice."
"Well, what can I say? I like talking to you."
"Or you're just bored."
"You should know me better than that love." I knew on the other end that he had a small smirk. "I wanted to talk to the woman I fancy."
"Even with my emotion's off, you still like me?" I asked after a moment.
"Of course. What kind of man would I be if I ignored you when they were off?" 'If they were on, I'd defiantly fall for that.' I thought.
"Thanks." I said before I started to hear the sound of a piano playing. "I have to go."
"Good night Chelsea."
"Good night." I said before hanging up. I put my phone on my bedside table before getting off my bed to head downstairs.

I walked downstairs and saw Damon sitting at the piano, playing it.
"I honestly thought you didn't play that." I said as I walked up behind him.
"Nobody asked if I played." He said as he continued to play it.
"People don't think you have a classy side to you." I said as I sat down next to him on the piano bench. "That's why nobody asked."
"Are you one of those people?"
"No." Damon looked at me without taking his hands off the piano. "I'm one of the only people that you've shown it to." He smiled before turning his head back towards the piano. "It's a nice side to see."
"When are you going to show you're classy side?" Damon asked me as he continued to play.
"We both know that I don't have one." I said to him. He started to slow down his playing.
"You do." Damon stopped playing and turned his head towards me. "It's just hidden." He brushed some hair behind my ear. "Most of your sides are hidden." There was sadness and a touch of guilt in his eyes. "You just have to want to show them."
"Easier said than done." I said quietly to him.

There was footsteps coming from behind us. I turned around to see Stefan standing with a book in his hand.
"So I dug into the old family archives from the 1900s." He said, ignoring how Damon was looking at me.
"So now you decide to try and be helpful?" Damon asked him.
"Want me to go back to being mad at you?" Stefan took a step closer to us.
"What'd you find?"
"Well, nothing from 1912," Stefan stood between us ", they never did arrest anyone for the Founder's murders." He opened the book and placed it on top of the piano, in front of me and Damon. "But, they did get a confession ten years later."
"They did?" I asked. "Who?"
"Jonathan Gilbert's granddaughter, Samantha." I looked up at Stefan. "They assumed she was crazy, locked her up in an insane asylum."
"Then what?" Damon asked Stefan.
"Trail ends there. I mean, she was a Founder, you know how they like to look out for their own."
"Samantha Gilbert. That is very weird." Damon said before looking up to Stefan.
"Why?"
"Because I'm pretty sure I had already killed her." I turned my head to Damon.

"So you think Samantha Gilbert is still alive, running around Mystic Falls, killing Founders?" Stefan asked Damon.
"It's not possible, if she became a vampire, we'd know about it, right?" Damon suggested.
"Then she must have had a ring that brought her back to life." Stefan started to say. "I mean she was a Gilbert, right? Those rings were passed on for generations."
"Those rings don't protect a person from old age." I said to Stefan.
"Jonathan Gilbert only made two of those rings." Stefan said as he started to pace. "Jeremy has one of them and the other's…."
"Alaric's." I said when I realized it. "Alaric is killing council members."
"But why?" Damon asked.
"Every spell has a consequence." I started to explain to Damon. "Maybe the ring that Jonathan, Samantha, and Alaric have worn makes the wearer start killing if they are killed a certain amount of times." I looked towards Stefan. "It's Emily's spell, but she might have known that something like this would happen at some point." I stood up from the bench and looked between the both of them. "I'll help in the morning. Right now, I'm going to bed." I turned around and started to walk towards the stairs.
"Chelsea," I turned to Damon ", good night."
"Good night Damon." I looked at him for a moment before looking to Stefan. "Good night Stefan." He gave me a nod.
"Good night." Stefan said to me. I looked back towards Damon before turning back towards the stairs.

~ Is jealous Damon good? I felt like I had to put that in there.
~ Any ideas on some things I could do in the next two chapters? Should Damon tell Chelsea that he knows there is a way they could kill Klaus (when he finds out), or should she find out from Sage? or even Rebekah? I have some stuff planned for the next two chapters, but feel free to share your ideas.

~ I was thinking, over the summer that I might write the story of what happened between The original and this story. How Chelsea came to fall in love with Damon and how she impacted everything that happend in season 1 and 2. Would you read that if I did that? I already have some ideas on what I could do, but I'm only going to do it if you are willing to read it. I would probably post the first chapter for that the same day I post the last chapter for this.
~ Speaking of the end, I was thinking. I know some of you want Chelsea/Klaus to be the end and others that want Chelsea/Damon. I was thinking about writing the end, but two different ways, as two chapters. One where she ends with Klaus and the other where she would end with Damon. If you guys like that idea, let me know in the reviews and I'll share more about what I was thinking about that in the next chapter.

~The next chapter will be May 3rd.

*Spoiler Alert*
In 'Do Not Go Gentle', Chelsea dances with two different people.

R&R 'till the next update
