~ Here is chapter 3. The Hybrid part 2.
~ It took me a little longer to get out, but I don't think you'll complain.

ENJOY!


Luna's POV

Blood. Human blood. The thing that I've been denying myself by drinking from animals. The scent of Derek's blood flowed up my nose and hit my senses. It smelled so good but I had to fight it. I didn't want to feed from humans, let alone Derek. The blood was pulling my mind into the darkness, the temptation of drinking from him started to cloud my mind. I moved back and closed my eyes before taking a deep breath. 'If I can't see it, it's not there.' I thought to myself.
"Closing your eyes doesn't make it go away love." Klaus said, but I kept my eyes closed. I took deep breaths, calming myself, telling my body that I didn't need to bite Derek. I focused my mind on my childhood, all the happy memories I had. "Just give into the temptation." I took a deep breath, keeping my eyes closed. The scent of his blood wouldn't escape my nose.
"Fight it Luna." I heard my dad say to me, which made it easier to fight the hunger. Then I heard a neck snap and I became angry. I opened my eyes to see my dad laying on the ground, with no blood around his mouth. I started taking deep breaths before turning my head to Klaus. He was smirking at me and I just lost it. I lunged at him, but he sped out of the way. I looked around and couldn't find him. There was a gust of air so I turned around, but there was no one there. Before I knew it, I was slammed down, face first, into onto the ground. I was flipped over and was face to face to Klaus.
"You aren't as strong as you should be." He whispered into my ear. "You need to feed on human blood love." He slowly pulled away and looked me straight in the eyes. "So you can be a true hybrid."
"I will never feed on a human." I said to him.
"Never is a long time sweetheart." He leaned in on my ear again. "I guarantee that you won't last the night. Your body craves for human blood. You need it." He pulled away and just smiled at me. I honestly wanted to smack that smile off of his face, but I knew I wouldn't be able to.
"Let me go."
"Why so you can run?" I rolled my eyes.
"I'm not that stupid." I said, staring straight into his eyes. "I wouldn't get far." He let out a small chuckle before slowly getting off of me.

When he was completely off of me, I slowly stood from the ground. Everyone was laying around me on the ground, dead. They were all going to be in transition, except for my dad. I looked at him and could barely contain my tears. My body immediately went towards him and I kneeled next to him. 'He isn't coming back' I couldn't help but think. He didn't have Klaus's blood in his system, which meant he was just dead. The last person that I considered truly family, is dead. I know I still have my mom, but she left me. If she really cared about me then she wouldn't have left in the first place. She was still out there somewhere, but she wasn't here. She wasn't part of my life now. Which left my dad, but he's now dead.

Tears flowed out my eyes as I stared at my dad. I needed my dad here with me. If it wasn't for me being weaker for Klaus, I would have torn his body apart, piece by piece. He deserved it for what he has done to me. He turned me as a test, he basically kills my extended family, and he kills my dad. All in front of me. He deserved everything that I wanted to give him, but couldn't. I turned my head towards Ray, who was sitting on a log. I took a deep breath and slowly stood up before walking to Ray. He was shivering and bleeding. 'That shouldn't be happening.'I thought before sitting down next to him.

"Ray." I tried to say in a comforting whisper as I placed my hand softly on his back.
"They're dead." He said. "They're all dead."
"I know." I said sadly as I placed my head on his shoulder and closed my eyes. More tears wanted to spill from my eyes, but I stopped them. I had to be strong, despite what has happened.
"He's through his transition." Klaus said, but I didn't even bother looking towards him, let alone move my head. "He should be feeling better soon."
"So is this your master plan?" Stefan asked, which I also ignored. "Build an army of hybrid slaves?"
"No, not slaves. Soldiers, comrades." I couldn't help but snort at Klaus.
"For what war, might I ask?"
"You don't arm yourself after war has been declared, Stefan. You build your army so big that no one ever dares pick a fight."
"People will feel threatened and build one anyway." I mumbled, knowing they could hear me.
"What makes you so sure that they'll be loyal?" Stefan asked Klaus, ignoring me.
"Well, it's not difficult to be loyal when you're on the winning team."
"It's hard to be loyal to the person who took your choice away." I said as I reluctantly raised my head from Ray's shoulder. "I can guarantee that they won't be loyal to you." I said to Klaus. He stepped closer and I didn't move an inch.
"Oh sweetheart, you'll learn not to underestimate me." He smirked at me before looking back at Stefan. "That's something you'll learn once you shake that horribly depressive chip off your shoulder." Stefan chuckled and I just rolled my eyes
."That's why you're keeping me around?" Stefan asked. "To witness my attitude adjustment?" I looked from Stefan to Klaus, who was looking into Ray's eyes.
"You'll know why I'm keeping you around when I want you to know." He only glanced once at Stefan, but kept his eyes on Ray. I looked between Klaus and Ray, wondering what was going on with him. "Something's wrong." Stefan stepped up to Ray and looked into his eyes.
"That shouldn't be happening, should it?" Stefan asked Klaus.
"Well obviously."
"Not all of your attempts are a total failure." I said to Klaus. He looked at me with curiosity in his eyes.
"Do tell." He said.
"You turned me." I said calmly. "None of this happened to me." I thought I saw some gears turning inside his head. "Maybe they hate you with a passion because of what you did to me that it just won't work with them." I felt a smirk appear, even though I didn't want it to.
"It's more complicated than that." Klaus said before standing up off the log.

I looked from Klaus to Ray, who looked like he was beginning to shiver. I brought my hand to his back, gently rubbing it. Something was happening to him and it wasn't good.
"You said it was gonna feel better." Ray said, his voice shaking, while looking at Klaus. "Why doesn't it feel better?"
"Because he's a dick." I said to Ray, but towards Klaus.
"Some master race." Stefan remarked.
"Lose the attitude." Klaus said to him. I mentally smirked, but kept a sad look at Ray. I wanted his pain to be over. This shouldn't be happening to him. There was a gasp for breath. When I looked I saw Paige was up and probably hungry. "Derek, come feed your girlfriend." Klaus said before Derek got up like a zombie because of the compulsion. The scent from his blood still wafted to my nose, but I was able to fight it. I couldn't help but watch as Klaus held out Derek's arm, where he had bitten before. All of a sudden, I was pushed back off the log and I could hear someone running away. When I sat up I realized that Ray was gone.
"Go get him." Klaus said to Stefan before he vanished. Klaus then looked to me. "Want a sip?" I rolled my eyes and slowly stood up from the ground. There was still some slight pain from when he threw me into the tree before, but it wasn't nothing I couldn't handle. I looked at Paige, who was standing from the ground and was looking at Derek. 'The blood' I thought. Klaus brought Derek closer to Paige and she latched onto his arm. She hesitantly fed from him. I turned around, not wanting to look at what was happening. I knew she was feeding from him. The new vampire part of her wanted the blood and she needed it to complete the transition, or she would just be dead. When I knew she was done, I turned around. Klaus was looking at me. "You won't be able to fight the hunger for long."
"Says you." I said, which seemed to make him smirk. He made Derek sit down before he walked over to me.
"You are an interesting creature Luna." Klaus said to me. "I'll be right back." He walked away from me.

I knew I wouldn't be able to run away. He would find me. Reluctantly, I looked around at everybody. Derek was sitting down, compelled by Stefan. I looked away from him and saw Paige. She was slowly walking around, almost like a zombie. Everything around me was horrible. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, trying to block out my surroundings. Sadly, it didn't really work. When I opened my eyes I decided to go to my tent. Sure, it wasn't anything special, but I wasn't about to run when Klaus could just find me and kill me. That actually made me wonder. Why hasn't he killed me yet? Sure, he killed me to turn me, but that doesn't count. He hasn't actually killed me and he's had enough time to do that. I tried not to think about it as I went into my tent.

Under the pillow that I had in my tent was my cell phone. I slowly took it from under the pillow and just looked at it. 'Should I?' I thought. It wasn't something I should do without thinking about it. After what has happened, I didn't really think about it. My fingers started moving on their own, scrolling down my contacts. They stopped when the name of the person that I was thinking about popped up. I haven't called the number in almost two years. It was a number that I knew by heart, one of the four that I bothered to memorize. I took a deep breath before pressing call and holding my phone to my ear. It rang once, then twice. At the moment I wasn't sure if I wanted an answer. By the fourth ring, I was pretty sure that I wasn't going to get one. I wasn't sure if I wanted to leave a message, but if I had to, then there is nothing else I could do.
'You've reached Amber. Please leave a message after the beep.' Her outgoing message said. 'Here goes nothing.' I thought.
"Hi mom." I said as calmly as I could. "It's Luna, your daughter. I know that we haven't talked much and I know you probably hate me but something bad has happened. The vampire that turned me ended up being the hybrid named Klaus." I took a deep breath, trying not to get emotional through the message. "He killed dad, Ray, Paige, and everyone that would go with dad on full moons. I honestly don't know what to do. He's too strong for me and I miss you." By now the tears were returning in my eyes. "I need you. Even though you left, you are still my mom. I love you. Just please come back. I don't know if I can go back home. I honestly don't know where I can go, but I'll try to look after myself the best I can. Please call or text or something. I need to know you are okay. I can't lose anyone else. I love you." I ended the call and buried my head in my pillow. 'When did my life get this screwed up' I thought as I cried into my pillow.


After fifteen minutes of being alone in my tent I heard footsteps outside.
"I know you're in there Luna." Klaus said as he stood near the tent.
"What do you want?" I asked, muffled by the pillow that my face was still in.
"I just want to know what you're doing love." He said.
"None of your business." I slowly lifted my head from my pillow as moved into a sitting position. I moved into a corner as the door of my tent started to open. Klaus peaked his head in and looked at me before moving my head to the side. I didn't want to look at the man who murdered not only me, but also my dad. He apparently didn't take the hint because he slowly made his way into my tent and sat opposite of me. "Get out of my tent." I said without looking at him.
"It won't always be this bad." He said to me, which took me by surprise. 'Was he trying to comfort me?' I thought. 'After what he has done?' "It'll get better. Faster if you drink human blood."
"Of course." I mumbled. "Always about the blood."
"Just one sip of human blood will make it easier for you to let go. To forget your feelings."
"I can't." I quietly said, knowing that he was right there next to me. "I promised that I wouldn't forget to feel." I promised my dad that I wouldn't turn it off the day my mom left. "I promised my dad." I quietly said out loud. I didn't know why I told him, it just slipped out.
"He's dead sweetheart. It's not like he's going to know."
"He's dead no thanks to you." I spat as I turned my head to him. He gave a small smile, which confused me.
"I'm going to check on my hybrids love." He slowly moved towards the door. "Feel free to join me." He made his way out my tent, leaving me alone.

I took a deep breath when I knew I was alone. Klaus was something else, that's for sure. There was no way I was going to give in to him. I wasn't going to turn off my emotions, but that didn't mean I couldn't try and ignore them. I could bury them, but not turn them off. With my animal diet, I wouldn't be able to. I would need human blood. Human blood would mean feeding from a human, harming them for my need. It wasn't something I wanted to do, but I might need to so I would be able to ignore my emotions. 'Would it be worth it?' I asked myself. A part of me wanted to feed from a human, but another part of me told me not to. I looked at the door of my tent. There was only one human close to me if I chose to feed from human blood. Derek was already compelled to be quiet and not to mention there was already bite marks on him. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. When I opened them I decided to slowly make my way out of my tent.

It was already getting dark, which surprised me. Before I went towards where Klaus was, I went towards the cooler my dad brought. I opened it and pulled out a bottle of bourbon that was in it. It stayed unopened as I walked towards Klaus.

"Glad you could join me love." I rolled my eyes at Klaus as I walked to the log I sat on before. I opened the bottle and started to drink from it. Although I was under the drinking age for most states, I've been drinking since I was 16, when I activated the werewolf curse. "Don't look so glum."
"I'm not." I said as I took a big gulp from the bottle. Everyone was starting to awaken. They would only need human blood to finish their transition.


After everyone had fed from Derek, it was completely dark out. Klaus had Derek by the fire, which was behind me.
"Bad news, my friend." Klaus said to Derek. "End of the road for you."
"Wait." I said before turning to him. "You can't kill him."
"And why not?" He asked me. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.
"Because I am." Klaus looked at me with a satisfying grin.
"I'd knew you would see things my way." I rolled my eyes as I slowly made my way next to him. 'I won't turn it off' I thought. No matter what, I promised my dad. 'Just a sip.' I told myself before standing directly behind Derek. The scent of his blood was stronger now than it was before. I looked at his neck, where I was thinking about biting him. "Go ahead and bite him, he won't feel a thing." Klaus whispered into my ear. I took a deep breath before letting my fangs descend. "If you don't enjoy it, he doesn't win.' A voice inside my head said before I bit into Derek's neck. His blood flowed down my throat. It gave energy and I could tell there was truth to what he said earlier. Human blood was making it easier for me to let go, to forget my feelings. 'Don't' The same voice inside my head said to me. When I could feel his heartbeat get slower, I pulled away. His blood was still on my mouth, but I didn't bother to wipe it off.
"You were right." Was all I said before walking away and picking another bottle to drink from.


I was laying on the ground, drunk. My hair was full of leaves, but I didn't care. Klaus was sitting on a log with a bottle in his hand. I slightly moved my head when I heard footsteps. Stefan was walking towards us and he looked exhausted. He dropped a body that I could tell was Ray. 'Yep. Now basically everyone close to me is dead.' I thought.
"They went rabid." Klaus said. "Some of them, I killed. The others just...
"Bled out." I said for Klaus.
"In the end... They're all dead." He yelled and threw the bottle, which broke. "I did everything I was told! I should be able to turn them. I broke the curse. I killed a werewolf. I killed a vampire. I killed the doppelganger. You look like hell." I slowly sat up and looked at Stefan. There was a bite on his arm, that probably came from Ray.
"Last I checked, I'm dying... And you don't want to heal me." Stefan said to Klaus.
"You should just heal him." I said before I got up. When I was up I leaned against a tree.
"I had to take him out. I didn't have a choice." Stefan said. "I failed you. I'm sorry. Do what you have to do."
"It should have worked." Klaus said before turning to me. "It did with you."
"What can I say. I'm special." I drunkenly smiled as he picked up a bottle that was half full. He turned back towards Stefan before biting into his wrist. The blood dripped into the bottle. After a moment he handed it to Stefan.
"Bottoms up." Stefan grabbed the bottle from Klaus. "We're leaving." He walked towards me and gently grabbed my hand. "It appears you're the only comrade I have left." He said to Stefan before giving me my attention. "Come with me sweetheart." I stopped leaning against the tree.
"Why?" I asked in drunken curiosity.
"I can't leave you here by yourself." I just nodded my head before letting him lead the way away from the campgrounds. There was one thing for sure. I wouldn't be coming back here again.


~ I know it seems that all the things that are happening around Luna are bad, but that will eventually change.
~ I didn't have the tent seen with Luna and Klaus planned, but it flowed out of me.
~ I was going to have the talk between Luna and her dad in this chapter, but all I can say is this won't be the last we see him.

~ What do you think so far? What do you think will happen in 'The End of The Affair'? Will Luna's mom and her reunite after so long?
~ Please review!

~ I will try to get the next chapter up before Saturday, but if I can't it will be up before next Saturday.

R&R 'til the next update
