Chapter 14:
"Don't remember me?" Niklaus said mimicking the words she had used on him in Chicago. He, yet again, was surprised by his fellow hybrid. She just didn't stay dead did she, he thought as he stared straight in her shocked filled grey eyes.
"I don't know you." She said masking her grey eyes with confusion but her started to pump like a horse's.
"Really? Acting stupid isn't going to help, love." Niklaus said, suddenly furious with Kristina.
She had panicked and did the most rational thing in her mind, which was to lie.
"I blame it on the vodka." She muttered helplessly as he gripped her up arm and literally dragged her out the back door.
"Let go of me!" Kristina said gritting her teeth and pulled away from him with all her strength. It was an unwelcoming surprise when she realized he still had an iron grip on her biceps. Nik kept pulling her towards the sleek black car in the far distance like she hadn't even attempted shake him off. Kristina's mind raced. He was stronger then her. He couldn't have, she though in horror. He was a hybrid, a vampire/werewolf. She could sense it now as her body tried to fight off the powerful liquor she had consumed. Kristina felt his hunger for her blood but also she felt the sudden Alpha male feeling tower over her. It wasn't a feeling she enjoyed in the slightest bit.
"You have changed, haven't you? Alcoholic and a little less intelligent?" He said sarcastically still dragging her to the black BMW that was now not so far away. She heard a muffled scream in the background as he opened the car door for her.
The scream of the blonde or the brunette brought out the agony in her grey eyes. They seemed silver in the sliver of the little moonlight.
"Don't hurt them!" She growled, propping her feet on the car roof making it impossible for Niklaus to shove her in. He got tired of his attempt to get her in the car soundly and just shoved her hard against the metal of the car.
"Don't kill them please." She said her grey eyes getting bigger. This act made him recall on Kristina's human years. She had been so easy to sway, just to protect the ones she marked as purely innocent. Kristina hadn't changed one bit. Aside from her attitude, her rose lips had not faded in their blood red color and the blush in her cheeks seemed to have the same pink burning in them as when he had late seen her human.
"I'm sorry, love." He said loosening his grip on her slight before continuing, "Remember this is me kidnapping you. So listen and get into the car." He said his tone getting stern as hell. Her stubbornness must have grown over the years, Nik thought.
"Make me." Kristina said spat. Her blood was almost at it's boiling point but she didn't let the anger take over. It was only 4/5 of a full moon. She wasn't as strong as on a full moon and she could only image how strong he was when the full moon was present. Being a werewolf and witch had supplied her with a enormous amount of power. Being a vampire and a werewolf seemed too dangerous to be matched together. Unlike Kristina, Klaus had his vampire side in control unlike her witch side, which only seemed to drain her of her energy constantly
"You really shouldn't have said that." He said smirking at her netted eyebrows and balled fists. Before she could responded, Kristina heard the nasty crack of bone and the light seemed to be drained from her eyes.
Kristina woke up silently, with a nasty aching in her neck and head. She knew the reason for both pains but she refused to make out her encounter with a ghost as reality. It all had seemed like a dream, like the many she had had before. They all seemed just as detailed when she had been intoxicated enough but this one stuck out a little more. She had seen the pure disbelief in her old master's electrocuting blue eyes. They told her that he hadn't expected to see her and neither had she.
"You have no idea how she came to be a hybrid?" Stefan's smartass tone brought her back to reality but she didn't move a muscle. Kristina wasn't ready to muster up the courage even look at Nik, let alone talk to him.
"When I saw her with the silver dagger in her heart the first time, she seemed so human to being with that I didn't think that she would live. Their had been no heart beat." He said she could sense the long pause in his speech. Kristina had only followed Mikael's version for the longest time. She had no recollection of what the truth was of that night.
"Second time, I left her with that same dagger in her heart with Mikael. It seemed unlikely that she would leave Mikael with her life, but as you see she is very much alive." Niklaus said to Stefan, Kristina could tell he was uncomfortable talking about his mistake in judgment.
"But Kristina said she didn't know who you were?" Stefan said.
Kristina gave herself a mental pat on the back. She had fouled at leased one of them but before she could truly celebrate her small victory there was a burst of laughter from Niklaus that made her almost flinch.
"If only she could hear you, she would probably be the happiest person in the world." He said stopping at a red light.
Her chance had arose. Kristina waited till she felt the car exhilarate to about 45 miles per hours till acting on her escape. Her movement was fast; she pulled the lock up, shoving the car door open and jumping out in less then 2 seconds. Once Kristina stopped rolling she quickly got up, holding back the tears as she popped her shoulder back in it's place. She slowly started to move towards the forest as the great pain in her shoulder decreased steadily but when she heard yelling and the car shriek to a stop, Kristina bolted into the safety of the trees.
The yelling of both Nik and Stefan and the sound of their heavy steps against the fragile and crisp forest floor, as they raced after her, masked the sound of her heavy breathing and the sharp snaps of twigs under her bare feet. Get angry, she told herself but the problem was she was angry all the time. She had learned to control it in hopes that she would only have to turn in cursed illumination of the full moon.
"Come on, something!" Kristina growled as she only felt the tingling sensation reappear at her fingertips.
She cursed herself, whenever she needed her werewolf side to appear, her magic came present. When she need her magic the energy that fueled her seemed to only cause her to turn.
"You can't run." She could hear Niklaus clearly but she saw nothing around her. He was right, Kristina couldn't run, not without turning but she could fight back in the hopes of delaying his plans with her.
"Fine." She spat; she felt her legs skid her to a stop, and the life around her flow through her. The biology in and around the forest was enormous. It was a pure innocent energy that she wasn't so used to but preferred
When two figures blurred into her vision, she left it out and was pleased when the groaning and moans of pain surrounded her, but she wasn't expecting the laugh that came out of Niklaus' lips quickly after.
"Love, is that the best you got?" He said wincing as he picked himself up off the wet layer of forest bed. Nik couldn't be more pleaded with his achievement, he was thankful at his will power to resist falling down in our agony. The vampire werewolf hybrid could see and hear Stefan growling in pain as he gripped at his head in pain.
"Niklaus, I have no fight with you. I do not wish to cause conflict. Step down." She said in the context of the older form of English. Not only did she speak as if she was in a different time, but her voice seemed to be in a two-voice unison.
It was the same voice he had heard in Chicago, when Kristina had prepared and nearly kill he. Now Nik finally understood where the two every different but similar voice came from. After hearing it the second time it was clear. It was her witch voice and her werewolf voice.
The first time he was introduced to the information that she was a hybrid; he automatically thought she was a vampire/werewolf, even if she didn't desire blood at the time. Then in Chicago, when he thought she was dead for over 500 years, he was shown her witch side. Niklaus knew her power; he had been so close to death that he had even seen his mother for a brief moment. From then on he promised himself that he would kill her if he live through it but he was beaten to it.
Once Mikael had placed, the all to familiar, sliver dagger in her heart, Nik saw the life being socked out of her normal grey eyes. Niklaus hadn't stayed to see for certain. How could he? When, possible, of the only men capable of killing him was busy killing her. It wasn't logical to stay but it wasn't smart to not double-check her death. Though out of a miracle, they had stumbled across her path once more, it was faith.
"Step down." Kristina's voice seemed to be mostly a growl, now. Nik felt his legs move back but stopped himself. He felt the Alpha Wolf in her but he was convinced that he was the stronger wolf.
"You step down." Her growled back, he felt the need to prove himself, he felt the need to turn.
She needed to turn; Kristina felt it in her small lean body. The urge to turn was almost to much but something held her back. The feeling of the life around her stopped her. Her witch side was fighting back, it wanted to be exposed but she was in desperate need for an escape route. Kristina had no time to think about the long-term positives because of the threat of not having a long-term to look forward to.
"Niklaus, I wouldn't be able to control myself." She said in a threatening snarl but with pleading misty grey eyes. Kristina fought the feeling to look way from his long glaring stares. Her grey eyes morphed to their usual wolfy self, eyes covered in a golden topaz except for her silverish grey pupils.
"I have no beef with you." She repeated. "Step down." Kristina said again. It was a wolf thing; he was provoking her to a fight, to test her Alpha male statured. Her instincts where to rip his throat off to show him who was boss.
Kristina felt her body shake and tremble; her words seemed more like a wolf call then English.
"Nik, last chance." She said in a smirking attitude. The feeling of the power of the earth around her disappeared and the rage feeling for shifting take it's place. She was holding it back, waiting for him to backing down.
"Bite me." His reply ran towards her wit unnatural speed. Kristina felt her weight shift to her toes as she prepared to sprint towards him in the process of bursting into the beast she dreaded.
