Alright guys this I haven't written in a while, sorry about that! About I am sticking to this story. I just wish I was caught up to the series now!, but oh well. In this chapter I wrote it in third person to see if you guys like this version better than first person. Another thing this chapter is rushed a little because I do want to catch up to the new episode, but it will take a while lol, anyway please review and let me know what you think!

"You told me that the petrova fire is strong…" I whispered to myself, moving down an abandon road with a baby in my arms, my arm broken, and my heart torn.

"Then I'll show you true petrova fire…" I growled.

Sylara growled as Pain erupted down her arms and legs; it was like needles were penetrating her skin with each movement she tried to make. She tried to move but something kept her in place. From what she could tell her hands were bonded above her head in thick shackles while her feet were tied together so that she could not move.

"Where am…" sylara began to open her eyes, but winced at the bright light coming from a head lamp from the side. Adjusting them she looked from side to side wincing at her movements. Her body was sore from being moved around possibly, but then again she didn't know how long she had been out for either.

"Nothing will happen to me…" it was then that her eyes adjusted to something next to her, blurred, but she could now see the outlines of his shirt and pants, the golden bane around his finger was clear as day now.

"Elijah…" she muttered pulling ever so slightly on her chains. Everything had happened so fast with Katarina and then finding out that the Salvatore brothers had the one weapon that could kill an original. It sent everything off. Sylaras gaze immediately landed on the dagger.

"I wouldn't try moving if I were you." Glancing up sylara eyes clashed with dark blue. It reminded her of Stefan, but she knew better then to trust these deep sea color eyes.

"Damon…" Damon only quirked an eyebrow before giving his mischievous grin at the woman before him. When Damon had first become aware of there being not one but two vampires in town along with two more witches he had thought of Elijah and then a scrawny side kick that followed him where ever he went. Never had he thought of the original even having a female companion at his side, especially one as good looking as this. Damon found himself glancing up and down her frame. Her clothes were slightly torn but he could defiantly tell she had a nice frame and a round enough behind and indeed a nice set of C cups. No wonder the original kept her around.

"And you must be the girl everyone's been talking about…" Damon smirked moving to stand only a few feet from her. if it had been any other vampire Damon would have staked them by now and tell the sheriff of his capture, but Elena convincing plea and Stefan's protests only gave him more of a headache now than ever.

"Sylara Smith….?" Damon chuckled. "Really? You two couldn't come up with a better name then smith." Sylara gave him a slight glare which did not go unnoticed by the vampire who kneeled before her his eye level meeting hers. At first sylara thought he would try and talk or maybe even torture her for information, but the longer he stared at her she began to wonder.

"Why did you bring me here…?" sylara glanced down at Elijah once more, pain entering her chest at the memory of her lost ones. Her eyes met Damon's, a stern look that would give Stefan a run for his money "why didn't you kill me…?"

"Because we need your help..." Damon and sylara turned to the door to see Stefan, his arms folded over his chest, but it was what was in his hand that caught sylaras gaze. A blood bag. Sylara immediately tensed pulling once more on the chains.

"I wouldn't try moving for a bit…the vervain is still in your system…" Stefan stated moving to stand against the wall while Damon moved to stand as well. Sylara looked questioningly at the two of them.

"You drugged me with vervain….how long have I been asleep" her statements low, but yet irritated.

"You've been asleep for 3 days now…" Damon had wanted to stake the vampire at the lake house, but Stefan could not bare to do that to the vampire. Sylara may have been Elijah's mate, but she had protected Elena. He owed her deeply for what she had done. After convincing Damon to not carry out his plan to kill her they had returned back to the house. They had locked both Elijah's body and sylara in the basement. Damon did not want to take any chances so he had given her a dose of vervain that would keep her down for a time, but now things had changed. "The vervain should be out of your system; once you have fed you should be fine…"

"What is it you want from me…" sylara could feel her veins burn and her body ache due to the vervain, but if she wanted to she could break the chains so easily.

"Well since your witch boys are dead" sylara froze at those words, Jonas and lucka had been at Elijah side long before sylara had returned to him, so they were not related in any way to her family. But still the pain of losing a friend still bit her deep.

"We need your help in protecting Elena…." Sylara glanced from brother to brother before glancing down at her beloved vampire. The dagger clearly seen as it stuck from his chest.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you…" sylaras gaze immediately turned to Damon who flinched at her movements. "I mean you did kill my lover…"

"no…" all three of them turned to the entrance only this time Elena gilberts now stood there, her eyes filled with concern, but sylara could sense her fear as she spoke. "Because you want something more than that…"

"And what would that be Elena…" sylara growled clenching her fist, but it was the moment that name left her lips that everything began to change again…

"Klaus….he's here.."

Sylara ducked from the rain in a small café with him following close behind her, she couldn't help but giggle at her friend. Derek's hair was completely wet and disheveled by the rain that there really was no point in trying to save it as he combed his fingers through it. Patting his shoulders sylara smiled up at him playfully.

"I think its dead Derek…there's no use saving it..."

"Ha-ha your very funny Sarah…" sylara sighed as he called her by her now known name. It was the name every human would know her by until she changed it after another decade or so.

It was now the year 2002 and everything was completely different. Music no longer played in bands, well they did but now you could carry them in small object now called MP3 players and IPods. Even opera houses and plays that sylara had grown so fond of had change dramatically from on stage performances to big screens to small cassettes then DVD's. It was still strange to her to watch plays in a small box, but then again it was nice to just return home and wrap herself in a blanket and turn on TV. Her favorite Movies were about Bud Abbott and Lou Costello. She had met them a few times and watched them on stage. Brilliant comedians of their time they were.

"Hey sera you want anything…" snapping herself back to reality she glanced up at Derek and smiled. "No thanks, I'll be back…"

Sylara made her way outside once more but this time she was underneath a canvas protecting her from the rain. Pulling out her cell phone she began to dial. When phones originally had come out it had been interesting, but when cell phones came out it had been more of calling card for her especially since she could text the kids easier. Placing the phone to her ear she listened as the phone began to ring.

"Aunty Sai!" sylara smiled as she heard the sound of her little Megan, her tone young and very cheerful. "When are you coming home!"

Sylara couldn't help but laugh at the small girls whining tone, it reminded her so much of Anna when she was growing up.

"Hi Sweet heart, I can't come home yet, but I miss you…" sylara whispered glancing back into the café to see Derek drinking his cup of coffee while he spoke to the lady at the register.

"Are you going to be here for my birthday…?" the small girls' whines defiantly reminded sylara of Anna, but she would keep that a secret.

"Of course sweetie, I'll run straight home if I have too…" after everything had happened sylara had made it her mission to protect Anna, and she had. Anna had grown into a fine young woman and so came the generation of a new breed of witches and warlocks. Of course only a few chosen favorites knew the truth about her and the vampires. She liked it that way.

"Yeah! Oh mommy wants to talk to you…" sylara could hear the phone moving in the background as Megan gave the phone to her mother, Alice.

"Hello sylara…"

"Hello Alice, how's the home front…" Alice was indeed a strong witch so sylara felt no need to stay and protect them when her daughters could take care of themselves. Anna had a strong blood line and so her children were the same as their great ancestor. Christopher and Sarah would have been proud.

"All is well here, I spoke to Abigail…"

"how is she doing," sylara turned to look at Derek once more before turning to look off farther , taking notice of a bar a few ways away.

"She's fine, just living her life I suppose" sylara had watched many of Christopher's children live and die. But she would always make sure to check in on them from time to time, even on those who did not want anything to do with her and her vampire kind.

"That's good, you keep in touch with her for me, she may not be close but she's still your Cousin…" sylara glanced up at rain. This was what the life she had now, a life that was free and no worries, only to cherish the many children Anna had given her. Sylara placed the phone back in her pocket before walking toward the bar, she could really use a drink soon and hospital blood could only get her so far these days. She wasn't too worried about Derek, but after his little hints all afternoon of what he had wanted to do tonight she needed to feed properly.

Moving across the street the rain damping her locks she moved closure to the bar. Alcohol and blood made everything all the more better. Her hands laced around the door handle but it was when she looked into the bar did her entire body froze. The room was crowded with people of many ages, old, middle, and young, but it was the two men in the back that caught her attention instantly. One wore a black leather jacket with dark pants. His hair slicked back ad short blond curls on his hair mixed with the color of blood. No one saw, but sylara already knew why.

Her breath caught in her throat as she looked up to see the other man standing next to him. His lean facial features and dark locks. His suit as neatly ironed as possible with the collar slightly parted to reveal his lean neck.

"Elijah…" sylara whispered, but her mind and body froze for in that instant his eyes turned to meet hers….

"Here…" sylara watched Elena poke a straw in the blood bag before handing it to her once more. Her body was still weak from the lake of blood and due to the pull on the compulsion Elijah had forced on her, it had taken most of her strength to even try and break it.

Elena watched as the vampire sipped carefully at her blood bag. It reminded her of Stefan when he drank, sipping it slowly unlike Damon who would down it all at once. They had moved sylara upstairs into a spare room across from Stefan's so that she could regain her strength. Of course Damon had protested the entire time, but Stefan had been willing to help if sylara promised not to release Elijah.

Sylara sighed resting her head upon the pillow before glancing at the closed shades, another condition, she had to give up her ring as well. Her necklace must have been left behind or lingered somewhere, but for now she was stuck.

"You said…" Elena watched as sylara turned to face her once more, licking her lips of the blood. "That Klaus was here…" Elena could hear the bitter tone in her voice.

"He's got Katherine…" Elena told sylara of how Isabel had returned to mystic falls. Isabel had been Elena's real birth mother but had abandon her to live another life. Sylara listened as Elena explained john's idiotic plan for protecting Elena from Klaus. Sylara felt her teeth clenched at each mentioning of his name. Elena told her about her mother's death. Sylara felt no sympathy for the wretched vampire, she was selfish and deserved to die. She would have retorted but Elena only continued explaining about her morning.

"Then this morning he told me to save him the last dance…"

Sylara raised an eyebrow at Elena in question at her words. Elena only rolled her eyes before she explained about the 60's dance and how her, Stefan, Damon, bonnie, Jeremy and Alaric were all going.

"so he is here…" sylara whispered shifting on the bed so that she could grab another bag of blood, but this time she did not wait for Elena to open her bag for her this time, instead she sank her teeth deep into the bag. The blood quickly slipped down her throat making her hunger for more of it.

"Easy, you need to rest…" Elena stated placing her hand on her shoulder, but sylara only pushed her hand away, blood dripping down her lips.

"I need to feed...so that I can fight him…" sylara growled as she reached for another bag of blood while Elena only watched on. Stefan and Damon were currently planning on how to deal with tonight, so Elena was currently watching out for sylara as she fed. She didn't know if she was afraid of the vampire, but for some reason she felt like she could trust sylara, even with her life.

"I never really asked you before..." Elena watched as sylara's cheeks began to return to a normal human color while her brown locks began to curl in the right places. "But you said you were doing this for Elijah…but" sylaras gaze immediately turned to meet Elena, her lips now stained with blood, but Elena continued.

"Why do you want to kill Klaus…"

Sylara blinked at Elena whipping her lips of the blood before moving to sit down on the bed once more, her strength had almost returned, but due to the fact that she had been living off Elijah's blood she would not be as strong. But her mind began to remember it all once again.

"I mean you don't have to tell me…"

"Klaus…" sylara let her hands clench into her wrist while her fangs bit deeply into her lip, Elena could feel the rage coming off of her. Sylara lifted her head up licking her lips before continuing. "Took everything from us."

Elena blinked at sylara's words but a part of her sympathies as well. She had spoken to her about her family and people who were once close to her, but Elena could only imagine what pain sylara had gone through after slaughtering her own family.

"You see Elena…" sylara turned her body so that she now sat at the edge of the bed her feet dangling off while her toes barely touched the floor. "Elijah had kept me hidden from Klaus gaze for a long time, hoping that his brother would never learn of my existence…."

Elena moved to sit on the edge of the bed as well watching as the vampire spoke her words. "Elijah wanted to keep you hidden..." sylara nodded. "Why?"

"Because Klaus wants what Elijah has. It is something that he himself can never have…" sylara turned to Elena. Elena became confused instantly, but sylara continued. "Klaus had found out of my existence Elena and after I had….declined his advance….Klaus sought to destroy the one thing I loved most in this world…"

"Elijah…" Elena whispered. Sylara stood this time feeling herself wobble for a time, but she made no move to sit down. She turned to face Elena, her gaze fierce. Apart of her wanted to tell Elena about the death of Margaret and Christopher, but she had spent years protecting her family, and she would not risk their safety for this.

"Klaus had found a way to separate us from each other, while Elijah was away, Klaus came for me…" sylara placed a hand against her neck the memory of his teeth sinking into her neck still remained. Elena could see that she was remembering something, but dared not ask what it was. "He tried to compel me…"

Elena felt the need to wrap her arms around sylara, but the vampire was too proud to even accept such a quester so Elena did the only thing she could do…and that was to listen.

"Tried…?"

"The necklace that I wear was given to me by Elijah a long time ago, the steal is melted with vervain so that I cannot be compelled by another vampire, including Klaus." Sylara stated moving to walk around the bed now. Elena turned slightly to watch her.

"What happened after?"

" I ran …" sylara looked at Elena. "I've been running for over 150 years from both originals, until now…"

"What do you mean from both?" Elena asked. She had the idea that after sylara had ran that she would have gone back to Elijah. Sylara paused in her step her eyes glancing about the room taking note of the book shelves and the dusted tables and chairs.

"For a time I had assumed that Elijah had known of Klaus's plan, and that he had sent his brother out to kill me…" sylara looked back at the doppelganger once more. The truth was sylara had been afraid of Elijah because of that reason. She had spent years wondering if Elijah had wanted her dead because she was one of Katrina's descendants. Klaus certainly wanted revenge, but he also had other reason for wanting her dead as well. "Besides I couldn't trust myself with Elijah…"

"You love him…"Elena stood this time on the opposite side of the bed before moving around it to stand in front of the vampire. From what she had learned from the original, Elijah was cold and dangerous yet in some way, he reminded her of Damon. He may be dangerous on the outside but to those who were important to him, it was different. He was kind and gentle at times. She wondered if that's how Elijah was with sylara.

Sylara laughed, rolling her eyes at the obvious, but it was true. "yes I do, and for a 150 years I stayed away from him…" until he decided to find her again in new york city a few years had been only a few weeks after seeing him in Chicago that day, but sylara closed her eyes at the memory of him standing in her beat up broken down hallway of her apartment complex. Everything smelled of old an run-down apartment and Elijah in his dark very expensive looking suit clashed to her eyes. The thing that she remembered most was his face how he looked her down and up very slowly. The memory made a shiver run down her spine which caught Elena's attention instantly.

"When Stefan had been locked in the tomb with Katherine…how did you feel, Elena…?" the question was simple yet sylaras words held meaning to them. Elena bit her lip at the memory. The very thought of being away from Stefan like that again pained her so deeply. It had only been a day or two but it had felt longer than that. She couldn't imagine staying away from him like sylara had done. For 150 years she had stayed away from the original. Sylara slipped slightly but Elena quickly went to her side.

"You okay? You feeling any better…" Elena placed a hand on her shoulder, but this time sylara welcomed the comfort.

"Yes….thank you Elena." It was then that sylara looked toward the door to see Stefan.

"We're ready for you…" Stefan stated. Sylara smiled before turning to Elena.

"Your boyfriend seems patient but I wouldn't chance it with Damon…" Elena smiled waiting for sylara to pass before they made their way down stairs to meet with the others. But before Elena could stop herself she placed a hand on sylara shoulder causing both Stefan and her to stop in their tracks.

"Why did you suddenly go back to him then…." She didn't know why she asked that. But she just needed to know why the vampire had returned to the man that could have possibly turned her to Klaus in the first place. Why would she take that chance.

Sylara smiled, glancing at Stefan once then turning to Elena whose gaze pleaded for answers. Then she spoke. "Because he told me to Never be Afraid Elena"

Elena pushed her brows together, but before she could question her, the vampire had walked right past Stefan to join the others down stairs.

"You okay…" Stefan's voice broke her train of thought, but she gave him a half smile.

"Just a lot to process…" Stefan smiled back. Moving closure he placed a soft kiss on her forehead tom comfort her. If only he could change this for Elena, so that she could live a normal life away from vampires and witches and werewolves. But then he would have never met Elena; and that was something he never wanted to regret.

"Will get through this…" Stefan's words comforted her, but still she had doubts. Elena gave him a chaste kiss before following him downstairs once more. Unfortunately Damon looked more annoyed then anything.

"Come on guys really?..." Damon growled as Elena , sylara, and Stefan moved to sit on couch. "You're really going to trust this ….this… this girl with Elena's life? Really?" he pointed his finger at sylara, but sylara said nothing.

"K, what's the plan." Sylara paused as she turned to the entrance of the living room to see the girl with dark long curled locks and chocolate like skin. Her eyes were different color, but sylara could never forget the scent. Bonnie Bennett, daughter of Abigail Bennett, Descendent of Christopher. Sylara had recognized her before, but had not had the pleasure of meeting her till now.

"Please can you explain to Elena that she is crazy..." Damon growled his eyes glaring at sylara, but she only rolled her eyes at the young vampire. "She thinks that her new (vampire girlfriend)" (Damon air quoting that) "will be able to stop Klaus on her own"

"It's not like you can stop me…" sylara stood this time. If Damon only knew how strong she really was, but if it hadn't been for the vervain she would have had him on the ground by now. Damon glared at the young woman. He wouldn't doubt it. It wasn't her strength that he feared, but the way she held herself. She was pure lethal and that made him shiver in anticipation.

"You want to bet…" Damon bit back as he moved toward the vampire, but Stefan immediately place himself between his brother and sylara.

"Damon enough…"

"What?" Damon growled " I wasn't going to hurt her…" Stefan highly found that unlikely. Even though sylara was week at the moment she still had a few years on them. If it was a bet between would win, there was no contest. Damon was to arrogant and would let that get in the way while Sylara held great strength in her fighting skills. Sylara only smirked before returning to look at Elena.

"Are you sure you're ready to take on Klaus Elena…"

"I am" sylara turned to look at bonnie. Fire was placed in her eyes, it was something that deeply reminded her of Christopher and yet she was stronger.

"Klaus is beyond anything you have ever seen before. He will not think twice before ending your life." It had been a long time since she had last seen Klaus. After spotting him in Chicago with Elijah she had ran back to New York City to hopefully gain some space between her and the original. Apparently Klaus had not learned of her presence for only Elijah had come for her back then. Now it would be different. The sound of a door shutting caught everyone's attention.

"Finally what took you so long…" it was Alaric. He was the vampire hunter of mystic falls, although she found it funny since there were three vampires standing before him along with a witch and a dopple ganger.

"Can you please explain that this is a bad idea…" Damon growled moving to stand near Alaric, but sylara paid little attention to the vampire hunter. He may have knowledge on how to kill a vampire, but Klaus was in another league of his own.

"Come on guys, we need to come up with a plan." Elena didn't want anyone to get hurt, even with Klaus being so Klaus she was afraid that someone close to her would get hurt. Jeremy and bonnie where her family along with Caroline and matt. After Tyler had disappeared and Elijah dead she thought something good would finally start happening. Thanks to her mom and Katherine she now had to worry about Klaus.

"We already have a plan…" bonnie stepped forward catching everyone's attention. "Me.." sylara couldn't help but feel a sudden warmth enter her chest. Christopher had been very similar, it brought a smile to her lips.

"Bonnie…" Elena was well aware of how powerful her friend was, but even bonnie couldn't defeat Klaus. Could she? "You can't…"

"Elena I can…" Bonnie was a strong witch, sylara would give her that, but if she had trained with actual witches and warlocks since the time of her birth she would have become a lot stronger. Possibly even stronger then Emily.

"I can take him…" Bonnie retorted but everyone suddenly became still as sylara suddenly appeared behind her, her teeth bared while her hand laced tightly into her hair. Stefan and Damon moved to grab her but sylara immediately pulled bonnie against her causing both vampires to stop. Bonnie gulped at the closeness fear suddenly entering her body. Sylara only sighed before releasing her hold on the witch. "You need to be faster than that bonnie…."

Elena watched as the vampire moved to return upstairs. She half expecting bonnie to blast sylara threw the wall, but even her friend seemed slightly shaken up. There was a lot about the vampire that Elena was not aware of, but she needed to know more.

It went unnoticed by all. How Alaric eyes wondered after sylara. A smirk placed across his lips.

"Hey where are you…?" Derek sounded concern yet slightly excited over the phone. Sylara had been planning to stay in Chicago longer, but after her close encounter with the original she had left in such a hurry that she had not had a chance to tell Derek.

"sorry Derek one of my friends has fallen ill, so I'll be in new you're for the next couple days, maybe a week…" sylara wore a worn out black sweater the zipper opened to reveal the red tank top underneath. Her cargo pants slightly torn. Apart of her regretted becoming attached to the human, but for now she would keep her distance.

"Oh I see…" she could hear the disappointment in his voice and it brought a smile to her lips. Sylara found herself walking up the narrow stair case to the fourth floor. The walls were painted a mustard yellow, but patches of wall were missing so it did not bother her too much. On the fourth floor it had 4 main doors while the others went farther down, but sylara moved slowly to the last door at the end of the corridor slightly dragging her feet.

"I'm sorry I couldn't stay longer…" she teased licking her lips. "I really did want to check out that DVD collection you had.."

"Well maybe when you get back…we can" sylara laughed at his words. Being human she would have not talked like this to any man, even to her vampire. But it had been a long time for her. The last time she was intimate with a man it had been during the war.

"Maybe…we talkin Pg-13 or R…" sylara bit her lip as she heard Derek hiss at her words. Pulling her keys out she inserted them into the key hole. With a bit of a push she was able to open the door to her run-down apartment. Usually she preferred things a little more elaborate and nice, especially when the kids decided to visit. But if she wanted to stay under the radar she needs to stay in more run down places. She placed her bag on the floor before moving toward the living room.

"Your such a tease sera…if you want…I can always come to you…" sylara thought about that for a moment, moving to sit on the sofa.

"You really want me to sleep you.." sylara wasn't usually so blunt, but she couldn't control her urges at the moment.

"No…" he teased "I just want you…"

(Knock. Knock..)

Sylara growled at the sudden interruption. But slowly she got up once more to move toward the door.

"Well I have to take a rain check on that one Derek…but I'll defiantly take your offer into consideration…" she teased, licking her lips.

"I look forward to it…bye"

"Bye" sylara sighed in frustration. It was easy to find an easy lay now a days but it was very difficult to find a gentlemen who was just as Horney as she was half the time. It had really been to long since she last fed, but after the whole Klaus encounter her mind had been elsewhere. "Forget about him..."

Sylara growled as she moved toward the door, letting her hand clasp around the door knob before opening it. Apart of her wondered who it was, probably just her neighbors. But it was when she opened the door to everything seemed to freeze in place.

"You…" sylara whispered as her eyes landed directly on him. He was taller than her, his chin as broad as ever while his hair was cut short as if he were in a men's magazine. He wore an expensive black suit with a white button up shirt underneath that parted to reveal part of his chest. How could he be standing there before her. She saw him in Chicago, but how did he find her.

"Sylara…"

The day had passed quickly as Elena and Stefan waited patiently at the car. Damon had decided to check something out while sylara stated she would meet up with them later. Elena had tried to plan the night to go smoothly and hopefully with little involvement of her friends, but none of them would stay out of this. Bonnie was their secret weapon and even sylara had an upper hand, but she still was worried about them, even her brother was involved in this fight now. How did things end up like this she had no idea.

"Hey you okay…" Elena glanced to her side to see her vampire boyfriend. Apart of her wanted to know if it was because she fell in love with Stefan that all this had happened in the first place, but even she knew that wasn't true. She loved Stefan more than anything and with Klaus being so near, she was afraid of losing any of them.

"Ya, just thinking…"

"Hey…" Elena turned to look back at Stefan his eyes glowing with concern. It was something she loved more than anything about him. It was as if he could see her for who she really was. He smiled at her letting his hand caress her cheek. "Everything's going to be fine…"

"How can you be so sure…"

"Because, someone has to be" Elena rolled her eyes at her boyfriend, but it made her smile. Moving closure she placed a soft kiss on his lips. He tasted so good to her that a part of her groaned when he pulled away making him chuckle.

Sylara tilted her head as she watched the two kiss. There was a time where she had been like that with Elijah, when she was human.

"Who would have thought of you as a peeping tom…?"

"Damon why don't you go bug Elena.." sylara turned to look at Damon as Stefan and Elena made their way into the gym followed by bonnie and Jeremy. She was well aware of Damon's love for Elena, but Damon was arrogant and dangerous.

"well then who would be there to bug you?" sylara watched as Damon moved to stand in front of her a grin placed on his lips, but he seemed serious about something for he kept his distance.

"What do you want Damon?"

"I want to know…what are you up to" Damon moved closure, this time it made her aware of how close he really was to her. He was a very compulsive vampire. "Why haven't you undaggered your boyfriend yet."

"Why do you care?" sylara growled "I'd thought you'd be careful that I haven't unleashed another person that is dying to rip you apart."

"I'll just have to add him to the list of people who want me dead…" sylara rolled her eyes, but none the less she waited for him to make a point.

"If you're planning to betray us…."

"Trust me, I won't" sylara could already sense the skeptical part of Damon working out a plan to killer her. She immediately pushed herself closure to Damon "besides, there's no fun when there is no one to play with…"

Damon paused as he glanced down at her parted lips down to the outfit she was wearing. It was supposed to be the 60's dance yet she wore a red tank top with a leather jacket and baggy pants. Sylara smirked before she traced her fingertips along his jawline.

"Close your mouth Damon, your drooling…" she teased before walking right past him toward the gym.

"I need you to keep an eye on bonnie…" sylara paused before she turned to face Damon. She found it odd he was concerned with her safety.

"Why?"

"Because of her magic" Damon moved closure "bonnie can control the power of a hundred dead witches, but if…"

"If she uses too much of it she'll die…" sylara could remember the whispers of the witches, stating of great power passing down from generation to generation. But to control the power of witches from long since passed, it was dangerous.

"Yep..."

"Don't worry Damon, she'll be fine" sylara moved past him one more, her teeth bore slightly. "Klaus is mine…"

Damon had to chuckle at the vampire. He had to admit she was truly an interesting woman, but he still didn't trust her. But if he had to play nice, he would try. Moving next to her he held his arm out for her sylara blinked in confusion before shaking her head at the vampire. She let her arm wrap around his as they walked into the gym. She smiles as the humans' eyes watched them even as Damon placed his mouth against her ear.

"Don't worry I won't tell your boyfriend.." he smiled down at her.

"Oh trust me...I wouldn't want to be the one to tell him anyway"

Sylara and Damon made their way to the gym and once they were inside Damon went to find Elena and Stefan while sylara stood out to the side to watch the crowd. It had been a long time since she had been to a dance with anyone. The style had changed dramatically over the year, first to classical, then jazz, and then somehow ended to R&B and pop music. Elijah would shake his head at her when she danced to her favorite songs sometimes provocative. It only made her laugh later when Elijah literally had to drag her off the dance floor sometimes anger, but he would get over it and wouldn't let her out of his grasp the entire night. But tonight none of that matter as her eyes searched for the crowd for the tall man with blond short curls and bluish eyes.

"You know you caught me off guard earlier" sylara couldn't help but smile as she turned to face the young witch. Wearing her bright yellow, red and white 60s dress as she stood before her. "I won't let you do it again."

"If you say so" sylara moved to walk past her, but something froze her in place. Bonnie glanced to her side.

"I can kill you too..." bonnie seemed serious, but sylara was not afraid.

"Save your strength bonnie" Bonnie's eyes widened as I continued to walk away from her.

"How did you…" bonnie was more confused than ever, how could she have broken her hold without even flinching. Sylara smiled before glancing back at bonnie.

"Another time my dear…." Sylara moved back to another side of the room, her eyes searching the crowd.

"Sylara…" sylara glanced to her side her stance ready, but she only relaxed once she watched Alaric move closure to her.

"Alaric…"

"Have you seen him yet…?"

"Not yet, but I'm looking."

"Do you even remember what he looks like?" sylara twitched before turning to face Alaric. At first she could have sworn a smirk was on his lips but soon turned into his regular stoic face.

"I'll never forget that stupid look on his face after I left him stranded in that house, burning." Sylara moved past Alaric to the lockers where no one could see.

"Well he probably was a little taken aback by the fire I suppose..?' Alaric moved to follow sylara. She had no interest in Alaric only Klaus was on her mind.

"But I suppose he deserved it, after killing Margaret …."

Sylara instantly froze in place. If she were human her heart would have been ponding through her chest. Without a second thought she found herself turning to face him. If it weren't for his appearance she wouldn't have recognized the arrogant smirk on his lips.

"Niklaus…" sylara growled, a part of her wanted to bare her teeth at the vampire, but if she did she would lose all control. Alaric smirked at the older vampire his eyes lingering particularly on her neck line.

"It has been such a long time, sylara…" Alaric moved closure, sylara made no move against him. "How long has it been…since Chicago right?" he moved to walk around her, but sylara stayed still, shivering as he whispered in her ear.

" I believe that was only a few years ago…" sylaras eyes widened. So Klaus had been aware of her presents that day. She clenched her fist tightly. "As much as I would have loved to catch up with you my dear…"

Sylara watched as he moved away once more, but this time to stand completely in front of her his face inches from her.

"But I knew you and my brother needed to catch up…" he moved closure "in more ways than one…"

Sylara immediately grabbed Alaric by his collar and threw him up against the locker, her death bared. She wanted to desperately sink her teeth deep into his throat, but this wasn't Klaus's true form

"Why are you using this body; Niklaus. I thought you wanted to turn into a hybrid" Alaric choked back and groan before glaring back at me. Good he could feel pain in this body, but that also meant so could Alaric.

"How is little Anna doing…by the way" sylara growled as she threw Klaus across the floor, quickly moving to stalk after him. How dare he even mutter her name.

"I'm going to enjoy this" sylara grabbed him once more, but she gasped in pain as he threw his fist into her stomach. She could feel the wooden stake cut deeply into her skin.

"You forget love…" sylara growled as he grabbed a fist full of her hair and pulled her up to look at him. "I gave you choice, you chose wrong…"

"Niklaus…"Sylara moved once more but growled in more pain as something sharp stabbed deep into her lower back. Alaric smirked at the pain that filled her expression. She watched as he traced a long finger down her back. "You're wrong…"

Alaric became angry as he grabbed another stake from his pocket and moved to stake it deep in her abdomen, but sylara pushed him away. Alaric flew a few inches off the grounded before colliding into the lockers.

"You won't kill me…not in this body." he groaned. Sylara quickly grabbed him and before she could stop herself sank her teeth deep into his neck sucking at the warm blood that filler her mouth. Apart of her felt the fire inside burn for more of his blood.

"SYLARA!" sylara was suddenly thrown away from Alaric across the hallway hard into the floor. Apart of her wanted to go after the one who had disturbed her, but she paused as her gaze met Bonnies and Elena's. Stefan and Damon had probably gone looking for Jeremy, but they would not be far gone. "What are you doing!"

Elena questions confused at the girls action, but soon Alaric began to chuckle before rising to his feet. Blood tickled down his lips. Sylara moved quickly to stand in front of Elena with bonnie at her side.

"Stay Back…"

"But its Alaric?" Elena protested till the man in front of them began to laugh.

"Nope, guess again…" Elena and bonnie glanced at each other before something dawned on them both as look to see Alaric before them.

"Klaus…"

"Ding ding ding we have a winner…" Elena didn't know what to do. She had expected Klaus to actually face them tonight, but why was he in Alaric's body. Bonnie straightened herself preparing for anything that came their way, but what was she going to do. If she attacked Klaus now, she would hurt Alaric.

"What do you want Niklaus…" sylara growled "you are not taking Elena with you."

"Who said anything about Elena…?" Alaric's eyes immediately landed straight on her.

Wow 15 pages! I actually wanted to try and make it to having Elijah brought back to life in this one, but it didn't work out so going to bring him in the next one. Of course I know how much you love their romantic scenes ;) so will have to add some in the next. You will see what happened the first time when Elijah came after sylara 150 years later. Then learn more about Klaus's plan for sylara.
