Chapter Seven – Hitch a Ride

23 October 2010

The Mikaelson manor was amazing on the outside, but it was indescribably beautiful on the inside. Even the entrance hall was one of the biggest rooms Jessica had ever been in. Everywhere there were beautiful statues and paintings. The only thought Jessica had was that this must be the ideal home for a 1000-year-old vampire-family, nothing modern, only antique things. There was this one painting that caught her eye, the painting showed a dark forest with some fallen trees. She couldn't recognize the painting, so she guessed that it wasn't anything famous.

"You like it? My father brought it from a small town in France."

Jessica froze, inhaled and turned towards Kol with a fake smile.

"Yes, I do. I'm not much into art, but I been to a few museums. I didn't introduce myself, I'm Jessica. Where did the others go?"

"They went into the Family Room. Do you have any particular artist or style you like?" Kol started to get too close to Jessica, starting to make her "Fight-or-Flight response" to kick in. She wanted to get out of there before he tried to compel her or something else, which would expose her as a witch.

"I don't know much about art, just from following my sister mostly; she's the one you should be talking to. I think I should go and get her."

Jessica started to walk away, but Kol grabbed her arm. She managed to wriggle out of his grasp, however, and ran to the Family Room.

"Are you okay, sis?"

Jessica was breathing heavily for a few seconds, took two deep breaths, and sat down next to Beth and Bonnie.

"I'm fine, Beth. You have a very nice home, Mr. Mikaelson. I just have one question, a house as big as this for two brothers and staff?"

"Please, call me Klaus, and this house is for all four of my siblings. We have an older brother, Elijah, and a younger sister, Rebekah, but they don't live here at the moment. We had another brother, Finn, but he passed away last month."

"I'm sorry to hear. Beth and I lost our brother a few years back. I'm Jessica by the way."

Jessica, even though she didn't want to, offered her hand toward Klaus. She had this disgusting feeling inside toward Klaus, but she tried to suppress it.

"It's lovely to meet you, Jessica, and I'm sorry for you loss as well." Klaus said as he shook her hand. "We were just about to make a few drinks. So, what do the lovely ladies drink?"

Beth asked for some scotch, Abby a Bloody Mary, while Bonnie and Jessica just wanted a glass of water.

"Kol, there you are. Why don't you go and make yourself useful and go and get two glass of water for our guests." Klaus said as Kol entered the room.

"You don't have to; I'll do it, just point the direction to the kitchen. It'll give me a reason to look around." Jessica said, giving Klaus half a smile, making sure not to make eye contact with Kol.

Klaus pointed to a door, and Jessica walked through it, ending up in a short corridor with several more doors. She checked out the first room, turning out to be a storage room, but the next one turned out to be the kitchen. For a family of all vampires, they sure had a big kitchen. Jessica started to look for the glasses, when she heard footsteps behind her.

"Thank God, I was starting to think I'd be stuck here forever." Jessica said as she turned around, almost dropping the cup she was holding. There was Elena standing in front of her, wearing only a nightgown and a robe.

"Yes, I know the feeling, I got lost here in here in the beginnings as well. Tell me what you were looking for and I show you."

"I was looking for the glasses… what are you doing here, Elena, and specially in your sleeping wear… are you living here?"

"It's just temporary. The glasses are over here." Elena took out a glass and handed it to Jessica.

As Jessica, accidently, touched Elena's hand, she felt that familiar, but not like the one she felt in 'the Grill' yesterday. She gasped as she realized what was going on; This girl wasn't Elena, she was Katherine. Quickly Jessica took out a small stake from her back pocket, and put her body in a defense position, not taking her eyes of Katherine. Katherine realized that her cover was blown, made an evil smile, extended her fangs, and grabbed Jessica by the throat and slammed her against the wall.

"I can't believe I didn't recognize you. You are that powerful witch whose brother I turned into a vampire… Grant was it? How is he these days? Made any massacres? Slaughtered any innocents?"

"You don't get to say his name!" Jessica growled, as she summoned every ounce of power she could and, using her mind, threw Katherine across the room, and stabbed her with the stake in the abdomen.

Jessica was breathing heavily, cursing that she missed the heart. Katherine was gasping for air as she pulled out the stake, throwing it to the floor. Jessica was still too tired to move, but she managed to get to the stake. This was the moment that Klaus, Kol, Bonnie, Abby and Beth entered the kitchen.

"Is this the way to repay me for giving you all that information? You let this witch try to kill me?" Katherine yelled at Klaus. Klaus looked at Jessica and Beth in surprised for what Katherine just said. "You didn't know what they were, huh. That means that you don't know who they are either. You little bitch…" Katherine said, with a pained look.

For a few seconds nobody moved, until Jessica ran toward Katherine, trying to stake her. Klaus grabbed her and threw her up against the wall.

"Tell me why you are here." Klaus said, as he tried to compel Jessica. As he remembered that no witch can't be compelled, he dropped Jessica and grabbed Katherine instead.

"Tell me everything about the witches, who they are, and why they're here." Klaus compelled Katherine to answer.

"They are Jessica and Beth Evans; they are of the Bennett line of witches. They specialize in hunting Vampires, so they are probably in town to hunt 'the Originals'. Jessica is a very powerful witch, and since the magic is connected to her blood, in large enough quantities her blood could help you make your hybrids." Katherine said with a monotone voice.

Klaus was started to smile, but then Beth gave Abby a signal, and grabbed Jessica, while Abby grabbed Bonnie, and they sped out the door, and all the way back to the Bennett's house. Abby and Beth were breathing a bit heavily, all in silence, until Jessica started talking.

"What are we going to do? It's not safe here anymore, now that Klaus knows. There is no other choice than to leave town… but for that we need the car."

"Why don't you and I keep an eye on Klaus and Kol tomorrow, and when its safe, we'll get the car." Bonnie wanted to help out, so they all could leave town to be safe.

24 Oct 2010

The next day Bonnie and Jessica was hiding in the tree line near the Mikaelson's. A few hours later, Klaus and Kol left the house, but there were still five hybrids watching over Jessica's SUV. As soon as 'the Original' brothers were far away, Jessica started to walk through the trees, towards the house, with Bonnie following her. Then Jessica took of her bracelet and drew out a Katana, which was attached on her back. Within minutes, three hybrids were dead, while the others fled. Bonnie was bleeding from a bite wound on her upper arm. Jessica was bleeding too, but she used her powers to speed up her healing. The both witches got into the car, and drive away in a hurry toward the Bennett's' house. About a minute later Jessica's cell phone started ringing; it was Beth.

"Hey sis, we got the car and are heading your way. Have everything ready, we'll be there in about 5 minutes. Did Abby do as I asked and packed everything necessary things for her and Bonnie? That's good, but remember that you can't leave the house before we get there. I see you soon… Love you, sis. Bye." Jessica said as she hung up and laid the phone on the dashboard.

"Is everything all right?"

"Yes Bonnie, but there is this feeling I can't shake. I'll guess I won't be calm before we are far from this town, and I know where Klaus is, so I can avoid him."

Soon after, Jessica drove to the Bennett house and honked the horn three short times in a row, which was Jessica's and Beth's signal. Beth came running out to the car, carrying all of her and Jessica's possessions, throwing them in the back of the car, and sitting down next to them. Then Abby came with her and Bonnie's luggage and through it in the trunk.

"Everything all set. Let's go," Beth said, as she and Abby got into the car.

As they were about to drive outside of town, everyone started to calm down, something hard suddenly hit the car, making it rotate in the air and hit the ground with a hard bang, upside-down. As Jessica tried to unbuckle her seatbelt, Beth's door flew open.

"Hello there, so we meet again. Let me help you out."

Klaus ripped out Beth's latch, grabbed her, and sped away.

"Beth!" Jessica cried out, struggling to unbuckle her seatbelt. It was stuck, so she pulled out a knife that she had strapped at her ankle, cut herself free, and used telekinesis to land somewhere safe. Then she cut loose Abby and Bonnie, and they all ran from the car… the car exploding moments later.

"Oh my, what a shame about that nice car, at least no one got hurt." Kol said with a wicked smirk on his face.

"Where is my sister?!"

"Well, she is unharmed. She's with my brother, and he promises not to hurt her, if you promise to come to our house and… talk."

"Oh, I should trust a 'promise' from a vampire? But there is no other way, I guess, so I'll go with you."

"Wise choice."

Kol grabbed Jessica, and they sped away to the Mikaelson, and through the doors.

"Welcome, Jessica. We've been expecting you." Klaus said as he stood next to a sobbing Beth, holding her arm, hard. "Let's have something to eat and have a proper chat in private."

So, What do you think? Have any Questions? Any objections? Anything that was extra good? Got any ideas? Write me a review and let me know.
