Hello y'all. Thanks for all of those who review/favorited/or followed this story, I really appreciate it all :). I told you that I'd update as fast as I could, and I think that this was very close.

I'm going to try and dive a little deeper into Abby's past. I'm not sure how specific I was when I mentioned that she was adopted (chapter 1), but I'm making it so that she was adopted when she was 5. Anyway hope you all enjoy.

Disclaimer: I own nothing (sadly)

"You may not understand the way I treat my family, but I will protect my family. Even if it means keeping an eye on my brother's girl, and who knows," Klaus said grinning from ear to ear. "I might just get a true friend out of this."

Abby pov

"Welcome to Chicago mates," Klaus cheered leading Stefan and I out of the parking garage. I rolled my eyes as Stefan was the one who asked Klaus the questions.

"What are we doing here?" Stefan asked. I would've asked that, if I hadn't stopped caring about where Klaus took for who knows what. I wanted to tell Stefan to just go with it, and act when the time was right.

Klaus turned to the two of, but kept his eyes mostly on Stefan. I however stared at the Chicago night sky. Completely starless. "I know how much you loved it here, bringing up any memories for the good old ripper days?"

"I blacked out for most of it," Stefan muttered staring at the city. "A lot of blood, a lot of partying. Details are all a blur."

"You partied?" I questioned. Stefan just rolled his eyes at me. "Tsk, tsk Stefan and you lectured me about having one drink at a bar in North Carolina."

"Well that's a crying shame," Klaus spoke up trying to make himself be heard in the so called 'conversation'. "The details are what make it legend." Klaus then indulged into a story about the ripper, Stefan, getting bored and coming to Chicago to have some fun.

"I wish I could've been alive in the 20's it sounds amazing," I said trailing behind the two. "The music, the parties, the clothes."

"Chicago was magical," Klaus finished said for me. "You definitely would've loved it here."

Stefan turned from his place to give Klaus a glare. "Well I'll take your word for it like I said I don't remember much of it."

I saw Klaus get this far away look in his eyes as he shut the door turning back to the two of us. Was that emotion I just saw in the big bad hybrid? "Well then, down to business."

"Why are we still with you?" Stefan demanded anger slipping into his voice alone with a touch of venom. "We all had our fun; your hybrids failed, don't you want to move on?"

"We are going to see my favorite witch, if anyone can fix this little hybrid dilemma it's her," Klaus spoke walking back towards the sleek black car. Klaus got back in the car and Stefan followed in pursuit. However when I tried to get in the car Klaus slammed the door shut.

I groaned and rolled my eyes. "Really Klaus open the door," I slammed on the window causing it to shatter. From the inside of the car I heard Klaus groan.

"Really darling? Did you have to break the window?" Klaus said looking at me from the window.

"Are you really going to leave me here?" I snapped back.

"You haven't fed since you woke up this morning love, I suggest you go find yourself a little midnight snack. Try not to kill anyone though," he smirked as the car drove off with me screaming his name along with a bunch of long worded curses.

Then I was alone.

So I went out and fed, on a man about to rape an innocent girl. I compelled the girl to go home and forget her life of partying then I almost drained the man of every ounce of his blood. I almost lost control, but the drugs had seeped into his blood making me nearly want to hurl when I dropped his body. I contemplated finding another person to feed from, but the though alone made my knee's go weak.

That is was Klaus wanted. He wanted for me to lose control and become his precious little ripper like Stefan. That's when I just started to walk through the windy city of Chicago taking in all of the sights. Although I had pretty much been through a majority of the Eastern sea board this was really the first time that I was truly alone without either Stefan or Klaus breathing down my neck waiting for me to snap.

So that's what I did for the rest of the night. I walked through the town taking in all of the sights that I've never gotten to see. Tall buildings, a lot of bars popping up all over the place. Lots and lots of people drinking and having a jolly good time. I contemplated going in and having a few drinks myself, but stopped myself. If I was tempted sober, I had no idea what I would do if I was completely drunk. Most likely drink the entire bar.

"Hey you!" I stopped when I felt someone's hand clamp down on my shoulder. I turned and saw a very drunk man standing behind me. "Come here little pretty flower let me show you a good time."

"Go away, and leave me alone," I attempted to make eye contact and use compulsion, but the man was drunk and would not hold still.

"Hey don't be like that little flower," he moaned trying to wrap his arms around me. "I like them young."

"I said," using my strength to twist his arm behind my back, "to leave me alone." He cried out in pain and I heard the sounds of his bones breaking and snapping around. "If you ever even think about doing this to another girl," I pulled his arm harder making him cry out louder. With a free hand I twisted his neck so that he was looking at me right in the eyes. "I want you to take a knife and stab yourself. Every time you think, even if it was just a small thought, I was you to stab yourself again, and again, and again. Now go!"

I untwisted his arm and threw him to the ground surprised at what I had just done. It was something I wouldn't do. Something I would scold Elijah for.

Something that Klaus would do.

xXx

The next morning I walked with Klaus and Stefan through Chicago. On the way we passed by the place where I had my little encounter with the man the night before. I flinched at the sight of the small corner, and I saw Stefan give me a curious look but the shaking of my head made him drop the subject.

Soon we walked into, guess what, another bar. Only this one actually looked kind of nice without all the people in it.

"Look's nice doesn't it," Klaus mused as Stefan and I walked in further.

Stefan was the one to answer the hybrid. "I can't believe this place is still here."

"You've got to be kidding me," I turned around with Stefan when I saw an older looking woman walking towards us. Her hair was pure white compared to her chocolate skin, but she looked absolutely flawless. It made me feel slightly insecure standing close to her.

"So a hybrid walks into a bar and-," Klaus started.

"Stop," I growled my hands gripping a wooden table. "Just because we can't kill you doesn't mean that we have to listen to your horrible humor."

"I like this girl already," the woman smiled at me. I gave a small one in return as I sat down in one of the booths. She then turned to Stefan, "I remember you."

"Yeah," Stefan said, "You're Gloria." She nodded her head. "Shouldn't you be-?"

"Old and dead? Now if I died who would run this place?" Gloria said.

"I will gladly take it off your hands if you get me away from him," I told her nodding my head towards Klaus who had a fake look of pain on his face.

He pouted at me playfully. "Now that hurts love. Right in the heart. Now back on subject Gloria is a very powerful witch."

"I can slow the aging down, a few spells and herbs, but don't worry it will catch up with me one day. When that day comes you and I will have a little chit chat sweet pea," Gloria winked at me.

"Stefan why don't you go fetch us a drink from behind the bar," Klaus ordered.

I rolled my eyes. "Shouldn't the dog go fetch the booze," Klaus glared at me. "Go on Klausy Klausy, go fetch the booze."

"I don't remember you having this much attitude as a human," Klaus mentioned sitting down with Gloria.

"You would know, you killed me remember?"

"My brother made sure you would live."

"You mean you knew I would come back? You little hybrid bast-!" I snarled until I saw Stefan giving me a warning look. I huffed and sat back down in the booth.

"You look ravishing by the way," Klaus said looking back and forth between Gloria and me.

"Don't, I know why you're here. A hybrid looking to make other hybrids. Word travels fast," Gloria said.

"So what am I doing wrong then?" Klaus demanded. I could tell that he was starting to get frustrated.

Gloria smirked at Klaus. "Well obviously you did something wrong. Look, every spell has a loop whole, but a curse that old we'd have to contact the witch who created it."

"Well that would be the Original Witch," Klaus stated.

"And she's long dead," I finished playing with a strand of my hair. I paused to see Klaus looking at me with a curious look. "What? You are forgetting that I dated your brother, I know a thing or two."

Klaus shook his head. "We will discuss that matter later sweetheart." I rolled my eyes at the damn nickname.

"I'm aware that the witch is dead, and for me to contact her I'll need help, bring me Rebekah."

"Rebekah," Klaus mused looking around the room. "She a little bit preoccupied."

"She has what I need," Gloria argued. "Bring her to me."

I have one question. Who is Rebekah? Past girlfriend, sibling, or just friend? No Klaus is too, well Klaus, to have a girlfriend or even a friend. My best guess is that she is Klaus's little sister.

I was brought out of my musings by Stefan. "What the hell is this?" He came stomping over to the table where Klaus and Gloria sat.

"Well I told you Stefan, Chicago was a magical place," I rolled my eyes and sped over to where Stefan was taking the piece of paper out of his hand. My eyes bugged out from what I saw. It was Stefan, and Klaus, like together.

"But this is me," Stefan said clearly in denial, "With you."

Awkward moment.

Stefan continued asking questions and Klaus continued dodging them. "Will you two please just take this outside," Gloria complained. "I have to open soon and you two are not helping here."

"Fine," Klaus announced taking Stefan's arm. "Come on mate let's go wake up Rebekah. Abigail, love, stay here and make sure that our witch doesn't run out on us."

"Wow tonight and today, what makes you so sure that I'm going to stay. What if I leave?" I questioned.

"You won't," Klaus snapped speeding in front of me gripping my arms tightly. "You know at first I didn't mind those little side comments, the verbal attacks, because I understand that you're mad at me for daggering my brother. However there's only so much that a hybrid can take, so I suggest that unless you want your little boyfriend to end up at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean that, you take the attitude and drop it down a few notches."

The entire time I could only make out one little detail. That Klaus would drop Elijah's body in the middle of the Pacific Ocean if I stepped out of line one more time. Klaus roughly shoved me back and I fell into the booth tears clouding my eyes. I just stayed like that until I was sure that Klaus was gone.

It wasn't until Gloria's hand rested upon my own that a small tear fell down my face. "Which brother has you hooked sweet pea?"

"Elijah," I sobbed, "God why am I so emotional? I wasn't this emotional during transition."

"You haven't mourned yet have you?" Gloria asked. I shook my head.

"No, he's going to come back, he promised me we'd be together always and forever," I stuttered.

Gloria gave me a small smile. "You hold onto that promise sweet pea, and keep it locked inside your heart. Keep that hope Abigail Gilbert, and he will come back to you." with one last pat on my hand Gloria got up and walked over towards the bar.

I just sat there until I felt Gloria place something in front of me. I was surprised to see the glass of alcohol she had placed in front of me.

"Trust me sweetheart, you're going to need this."

I raised my glass. "Thank you." she merely winked back at me.

That is how I spent the next hours while Stefan and Klaus were running around. I tried to deny the drinks after the first two or three, but Gloria just kept bringing me more and more drinks until I could feel myself getting slightly tipsy.

That is until I saw a familiar raven headed man talking to Gloria. I sobered up real fast and stormed over to him. "What are you doing here?" I growled at him. Damon looked genuinely surprised to see me.

"I thought I'd come see the sights, what are you doing here?" I narrowed my eyes at him. "Enjoying being a vampire I see."

"Klaus saved your ass once that's why Stefan and I are here, he will not just let you live again. Especially if he finds out that Elena is alive," I snapped.

"Oh kittens learned to bite since she grew fangs," I could feel my hands gripping the countertop with a hard grip.

"Why are you here?" I whispered.

"Elena thinks that she can get Stefan into a vampire rehab and back into Mystic Falls," he said eyes hardening. I felt my heart clench. "And you of course, can't stop talking about how much she wants her sister home."

The hurt in my heart was growing every moment. "A fun thing about growing fangs Damon is that I can understand when someone lies to me. After all this she just wants Stefan. How close am I?"

"She wants you back Abby, her priorities have been haywire ever since the two of you left," Damon argued.

I scoffed. "Go ahead protect her it's what you do best."

"Abby," I ripped my arm out of the hand he had attempted to place my arm in. he called my names a few more times, but instead I walked away back towards Gloria.

"Remember when you said I was going to need that drink?" I asked.

She just chuckled passing me another glass. This was definitely going to be a very long day.

xXx

I just watched as Damon tried to distract Klaus. I wasn't an idiot I know that Damon is distracting Klaus so that Elena could talk to Stefan. Stefan and not me. She wants him home, but she doesn't give a damn about me.

Things got a lot more interesting as I watched Klaus lift Damon by his neck and start stabbing him with a wooden umbrella. The one he had taken from my glass after he decided I have had enough to drink.

"You don't have to negotiate your brother's freedom back, when I'm done with him he won't want to come back. Imagine what Abigail will feel by the end of all this. After all why stay with a family who doesn't want her. Who knows maybe she'll want to stay with me, and leave town with me," Klaus taunted Damon.

Klaus let Damon go and came over to my side placing a comforting hand on my shoulder. "Abby," Damon started.

"I think you should go mate," Klaus said. Neither of us moved until I heard the door to the bar close.

"What are you bipolar?" I asked.

"Whatever do you mean love?"

"One minute your threating to send Elijah into the Pacific, and now you're sticking up for me. Why? Why do you keep mixing your signals? First you're bad, and then you're slightly good. Why? You know I'm never going to love you right? I love Elijah and nothing you do will change that."

Klaus sighed and pushed his drink towards me. "Trust me love, when I say that I do not have any romantic feelings towards you, but I do you think of you as a close friend. Maybe even a sister."

"Why?" I asked.

Klaus turned around in his seat and took my face between his hands. He kept my eyes locked on his and I could see them dilating and contracting. "I want you to remember."

"Remember what?" I snapped but then gasped images flooding my mind.

I wasn't aware that my eyes were still locked on his. "Sleep love, and then remember."

Le gasp *_* so Klaus compelled her to remember, but what is it he wan't her to remember? All these questions will be answered the next chapter.

Love to all, and please review.
