Chapter Seventeen - Avenging.

Back in the hotel Lobby.

The trio of female vampires briskly found their way back in to the hotel lobby as the afternoon was slowly turning into the evening. The park would be closed in an hour and Caroline decided that she would need the extra hour to get ready for the evening – to which the girls willingly agreed. Elena noticed they were the first ones back and pulled out her cell to text one of the others however, after using it for taking pictures of their first day, the battery had given up.
"Hey could one of you text or call the others, my mobile is dead." She turned around to ask the blondes who were surprisingly in mid conversation about their bikini buys.
"Already? You had full power before we left." Caroline asked.
"That was seven hours ago..." Elena frowned to which Caroline simply shrugged and looked back over to Rebekah.
"Um yeah sure, I'll ring one of my brothers." The original offered and thoroughly went through her purse to find her own. As she pulled it out she noticed she already had a SMS from Kol. The girls watched her expression go from confusion, to a smile, to full laughter.
"What is it?" Elena wondered and started to walk closer.
"What's funny?" Caroline also added while trying to take a peek. Rebekah couldn't stop laughing to explain. She waved her hand to indicate for the girls to hold on and she took her first breath. She now seemed a little calmer to talk but stupidly her eyes glanced over her phone once more starting her off again.

Caroline was eager to know what she saw, she snatched the mobile out of Rebekah's grasp and took a look for herself.
"Oh my God!" She grinned and began to giggle. "Elena you need to see this like right now!"

At this point Elena was understandably confused, what could be so funny?
"Okay show me then." She took the cell from a now giggling Caroline. The brunette couldn't believe what she saw. Mr Damon Salvatore was in the picture standing right under a wave of water. It was a typical funny picture that you usually see all the time in holiday snaps but because it was Damon this is what caused a huge smile to form across her face.
"Did Kol do this?" She asked the owner of the mobile while still looking down at the picture trying not to break into hysterics as well. Rebekah was no longer laughing but still had a smirk and gleam in her eyes.
"Yeah I was actually about to call Elijah but I noticed Kol sent me a message and went to read it. I have to tell you I expected some mischief from him but nothing like that." She took her cell back to write a reply.
"I bet Damon was so pissed!" Caroline grinned like a kid.
"Well hopefully Damon didn't do anything stupid like try and retaliate..." Elena ruined the smiles as they all wondered what could have been the aftermath to this photo.
"I think I'm going to call him instead..." Rebekah muttered, hoping her brother also hadn't done anything drastic.
"Good idea..." The girls followed with no more amusement in their voice. They all waited as the dial tone appeared and the longer it took for Kol to pick up the bigger the suspense got.
"Hello." Kol's simple greet cut off the dialing ensuring a little bit of relief for the girls.
"Is Damon still with you?" Rebekah cut to the chase. There was a little pause before her brother replied.
"Yes why wouldn't he be? Please tell me you got the picture I sent you."

Rebekah could tell he was smirking.
"You sent the picture!" Suddenly Damon's voice arose in the background and all the girls sighed at once.
"Yes we got the picture it was very entertaining thanks." Caroline called out and Kol chuckled.
"See you're a hoot." Kol told Damon from the other end of the line.
"I repeat - you sent the picture!" The Salvatore's voice was nearer and the girls were listening to Kol's constant chuckling. Rebekah was about to say something however, the next thing they heard was a struggle and the men arguing.
"Oh crap are they fighting?" Elena looked worried.
"Hello? Brother are you still there?" Rebekah asked while staring at the girls.
"Damon give me back Stefan you whore!" Kol's voice called out and the three vampire's brows furrowed immediately.
"Stefan?" Caroline questioned. "Is Stefan with them?"

"Kol!" Rebekah hissed.
"No!" Damon's simple reply to Kol was heard from further away.
"Don't make me come after you, you know I will win." Kol seemed truly unhappy about whatever Damon was doing.
"Delete that photo before you send it to anyone else or I will rip him to shreds!"
"You wouldn't." Kol gasped.

Elena suddenly grabbed the mobile after hearing Damon's words.
"Kol answer us now! What is going on?" She begged.
"Ugh time-out! I will delete it in a minute just give me back Stefan." He ignored the voice coming from his mobile as Damon came walking back with the plush teddy in hand.
"Not until you delete it."
"How can I, I am on the phon- shit!" He remembered what he was previously doing before. "Hello?"
"What the hell is going on and where are you three?!" Caroline was now the one holding the phone and very frustrated.
"Huh?" Was the only reply she got.
"Kol answer the bloody questions." Rebekah's voice appeared.
"Nothing is going on, Me and Damon are happily walking back to the hotel after an enjoyable day out."
"You mentioned Stefan was with you?" Elena asked.
"Did I?" Kol stopped for a beat. "Oh no that Stefan isn't with us."

This now had the girls really bewildered.
"Then what Stefan is with you and why was Damon threatening to rip him to pieces?!"

There was no chance for Kol to reply because he and Damon were already walking through the automatic doors. Elena instantly hung up the call and handed the cell back to Rebekah before marching to the guys for answers. Kol waved as he put his mobile back in pocket and Damon simply did nothing.
"What do you two think you are playing at?" She demanded. The men both glanced at each other with a raised eyebrow before looking back at the annoyed brunette.
"Elena what are you talking about?" Damon asked.
"Right, where's Stefan?" Caroline was now storming towards them with her arms folded and lips pouted.
"What is that?" Rebekah interrupted and pointed at the Minion hanging loosely in Damon's hand.
"That's Stefan." Kol proudly announced and snatched it from Damon in a quick vampire motion.
"Woah wait – that is what you two were arguing about on the phone?" Caroline stared at them wide eyed.
"Annoyingly yes." The Salvatore muttered as he was glaring frustratingly at Kol. No one uttered a word for a long five seconds as they all glanced at the eldest original.
"Are you going to explain why it's called Stefan?" Elena piped up.
"And what is it?" Rebekah narrowed her eyes in disgust at the funny looking creature. "It's freakier than that alien."
"I told you he was creepy!" Caroline called out but quickly hushed as she saw all eyes were on her.
"Damon named it and I don't know..." Kol's disinterest of the questioning was apparent.
"It's from another film." Elena mumbled with her head to the side to Rebekah and the blonde nodded in understanding.

The interesting conversation came to a sudden stop as the automatic doors flew open once again; only this time to reveal the remaining originals.

Klaus was the first one to walk through, sour faced and fairly tired. The group wondered that maybe it was a bad idea to team up the brothers. Luckily, Elijah strolled in next apologizing to two security guards from the park.
"What did you do this time?" Kol asked the Hybrid as he neared.
"Don't talk to me." Klaus lifted a finger indicating his little brother to shut up – he had to have a little chat with him about the airport situation later.

Kol opened his mouth to speak but instantly closed as Elijah was now with the rest of them.
"Niklaus has been banned from the main amusement park for the rest of the holiday." He announced.
"What?!" The girls cried while Kol and Damon snorted at this fact.
"What could you possibly do to get kicked out of a theme park?" Damon uttered with a clear smirk across his face as he folded his arms over his chest.
"By doing something that I am more likely going to do to you if you don't wipe that smug grin of your face." Klaus hissed. Rebekah rolled her eyes.
"Who did you hurt this time?" She sighed.
"I don't know, I didn't exactly ask for his name Rebekah."
"He punched one of the park mascots as he was persuading Niklaus to dance for the small audience of children." Elijah also exasperated in boredom. Elena and Caroline instantly gasped and once again the guys lightly chuckled – even Klaus had a slither of a smile on his features.
"You punched someone in front of children!" Caroline squealed in horror. This caused Klaus' smirk to diminish as he turned to her.
"I didn't know they're were kids around! I was too busy trying to get the idiot away from me." His glare was minuscule upon Caroline's judgmental gaze. She simply snapped her head away as she had nothing to remark with.

Kol observed everyone's silence and assumed it was his turn to open his mouth.
"Hey, Nik look what I won today..." He shoved the plush teddy into his brother's view. Klaus instantly stepped back with a furious glint in his eyes.
"Is this meant to be one of your stupid jokes Kol?!" He hissed. The group except Elijah glanced at the distressed Hybrid in complete confusion.
"What are you talking about?" The youngest brother frowned as he lowered the toy. Elijah had realized the confusion between the vampires and shook his lightly with a glimmer of an amused smirk.
"The mascot was dressed in an outfit exactly like your friend, Kol." He announced and everyone minus the brothers rolled their eyes. Kol gasped dramatically and yanked the minion away and behind his back.
"How could you hurt one of these!? They are utterly adorable brother." His eyes were wide. No one was sure whether this was Kol being his usual sarcastic self or honestly serious. Damon retorted with a scoff.
"Someone needs to get laid..." He muttered under his breath which was no use as everyone heard. The girls snickered and the Salvatore smiled proudly at his comeback. Kol turned slowly with an unimpressed expression across his face.
"And I thought we were friends?"
Damon simply shrugged and darted his gaze in the direction of a near by bar.
"So are we all just going to stand around here for the rest of the day, or can we actually do something productive?" He asked with his arms folded. The girls glanced at one another as the guys stayed quiet.
"We still got to wait for Bonnie, Jer, Matt and your brother..." Elena replied, not actually giving the answer he wanted. He sighed before moving to the side of the lobby that had a seating area and collapsed on the nearest armchair. Kol watched before shrugging himself and abandoning the rest of the group to accompany Damon.

"I think two certain vampires have bonded..." Elijah stated once Kol was gone.
"I don't know whether that is a good thing or dangerous for all." Rebekah replied with an actual look of worry in her eyes.
"Perhaps they will cancel their idiotic egos out?" Elena suggested.
"Or instead they will end up working together to make this vacation a living hell!" Caroline's pitch was heightened however she was quiet.
"Then it's a good job we are all dead love." Klaus decided to crack a joke to which he was awarded with four pairs of frowns.


The five of them did not notice another vampire and a witch walk through the automated doors and inside until they were right beside them.
"Well, you guys look happy..." Bonnie announced her arrival with a weary smile. Everyone turned.
"Oh hey!" Caroline instantly perked up and greeted the both of them and every else followed with their hellos until Kol had seen and turned his head around.
"Hey! If I recall, you two were not the pair we decided on!" He leaned across the back of the couch he was sat upon with a frown. Stefan and Bonnie glanced back confused – mostly at the fact that Damon and Kol were simply still together and hadn't murdered either one yet. The others also realized that Stefan and Bonnie shouldn't be paired up.
"Wait, so where is Matt and Jeremy?" Elena asked.
"Beats us... We lost them a few hours back because they wanted to go on some ride." Stefan finally spoke.
"And we haven't found them since." Bonnie rolled her eyes.

No one had needed to reply as the two in speaking came marching inside. Matt and Jeremy were at least four paces apart – the youngest in front – and in mid argument.
"How could you even think that!?" Jeremy called behind with clear dissatisfaction as they walked up to everyone else.
"Because it's obviously true!" Matt argued back annoyingly.

This raised everyone's attention – including the two in the seating area.
"Oh please!" Jer snorted and came to a halt as he now arrived.
"Uh – is everything all right?" Elena stepped forward to her brother, concerned and bewildered.
"Oh yeah... Just someone doesn't know fact when he sees it!" He snapped his head around to indicate it towards Matt as he was now with the group. The quarterback answered with a displeased groan before ignoring him completely.

Kol and Damon were now by their sides.
"Ooo a lover's quarrel... Please tell us more?" Kol put his arms around each of the humans shoulders and edged them closer.
"Kol stop it." Rebekah added to which he pretended not to hear.
"So why are you two arguing?" Bonnie frowned and she looked towards Jeremy.
"We're not, because the discussion is over." Matt retorted with a sneering smile at his supposed friend.
"Because you know I'm right..." Jeremy uttered quietly however, he was heard. Matt instantly shoved Kol's arm off him to step in front of Jeremy.
"No you are definitely not right!" He pointed out with a finger.
"I am!"
"Not!"
"Am!"
"Not!"
"All right just stop!" Caroline flung her arms up into the air clearly exhausted by the childish debate. Both of them did exactly what she demanded and closed their mouths immediately.
"So are we ever going to be enlightened to why you two are having a pathetic disagreement?" Klaus asked after a few moments of awkward silence. The both of them glared at each other before Jeremy decided to speak up.
"Matt thinks Captain America is clearly a better Avenger than Iron-Man which I can declare is not." He crossed his arms snootily. Suddenly, groans and sighs escaped everyone else's mouths minus a confused Kol and Rebekah.
"Have you seriously fallen out because of some stupid Superheroes?" Elena glared irritated.
"Superheroes are not stupid!" The humans both shouted in unison.
"Oh I need a drink..." Damon confessed before strolling off in the opposite direction. Elijah, Klaus and Stefan followed within seconds without uttering a word or a goodbye. The girls stayed firmly put with frustrated faces.
"No one actually cares about your fictional comic book characters..." Caroline stated before turning to realize half the group had left.
"Just like no one cares about your stupid reality stars..." Matt retorted. The blonde furrowed her brows and clenched her jaw.
"Do not even think about starting with me Matt Donavon!" She growled and edged forward as his eyes widened and he took a step back. Jeremy snickered and Elena snapped her head around to her younger brother.
"Don't you start either." She uttered lowly.
"I wasn't!" He defended himself.

"Oh god, you know a drink actually sounds like a good idea." Bonnie exasperated before storming off herself with Elena and Caroline in tow. They turned briefly to see Rebekah still standing their with a creased brow and understandably not having a clue what just happened.
"Come on Rebekah!" Caroline called out, snapping the other blonde back to reality. She looked over with a nod before catching up with the rest.

It was silent for another few moments and Matt and Jeremy almost forgot about one other vampire standing behind them before he spoke.
"Uh – so what's an Avenger?" Kol asked also with his brow creased and really, very curious about this. The humans startled and turned, however it didn't take long before two childish smirks etched across their faces as they now got to continue a conversation about the thing they loved.
"Ha, Kol you have got a lot to learn are you sure you got the time?" Jeremy mocked.
"I'm immortal of course I have the time." Kol rolled his eyes before the three exited the lobby in a discussion about the Marvel creations, giving the original a new insight to what he has missed these last a hundred years...
