Trixie was sitting on a fallen tree trunk that the wolves had pulled to the center to use as a bench while Stefan walked around to check on the still dead hybrids. He was groaning as he had to lift some to make sure they still had a faint pulse and as he was doing the heavy lifting Klaus was sitting on the ground between Trixies legs and leaning back to her smiling.

"You are a goddess you know?" She turned and questioned him as he smiled and nudged her chest with his head. She grinned as she smacked him on his chest lightly and returned to watching Stefan.

"Just because Im running my fingers through your hair doesnt mean Im giving into you. Im bored and this is letting me move my hands. I get anxious when Im bored."

"You could do something else if youre that bored." She growled this time and smacked his forehead as he turned around and knelt before her now smiling and chuckling.

"You perv!"

"I didnt mean that love! I was going to just suggest that you could go back into town if you wanted. I dont want you to be bored here if you dont want to." She was frowning at first thinking he was being sexual but when he showed his soft side for her she slowly smiled as she shook her head.

"Im fine here Nik. Besides, if I get too bored I can rummage through their stuff." Trixie pointed to a close by backpack that she had already taken an IPod and IPod Dock out of and had started to play some music pretty low though. Klaus nodded as he turned back around and leaned against her again. She started to run her fingers through his hair once more as she noticed Stefan walking back to them and as he was going to speak to Klaus Ray took in a sudden breath of air and shirked. He had been quite, watching and mumbling to himself since they killed the other vampires, but as she started to freak out a bit Klaus noticed the other hybrids starting to wake up. He stood and smiled as Stefan grabbed the human boy and drug him around to feed the others. Klaus was watching with interest as Stefan went to feed all the hybrids that were getting up but as he had his back turned Trixie noticed Ray jumping around as if he was freaking out. he probably was but when he jumped to his feet and suddenly darted over to Klaus Trixie pulled him by his hand and made him crash against her as Ray collided with a tree that was past them. Klaus smiled as he noticed he was laying on top of Trixie now, she had fallen over backwards off the log she was sitting on, but before he could say anything to her she noticed Ray was bleeding from his eyes as he searched for why he missed Klaus.

"If you wanted me Trixie you could have just asked."

"Nik! Ray! Look at him!" Stefan perked up at that and as he turned to Ray Klaus stood and walked closer to him as well. Trixie knelt in front of the log she had sat on and brushed off her shirt before she stood and saw Ray jump at them again.

"Thats not supposed to happen." Stefan turned Rays face sideways and saw he was bleeding form the ears too. Klaus growled to the vampire and nodded.

"No shit!"

"Some army Klaus."

"Lose the attitude Stefan! Whats wrong with him!" Klaus glanced to Trixie as she walked up to Ray and turned his face side to side before lifting his gums and seeing the he was showing only one set of fangs. Ry took a snap at her and as she backed away she swatted his head and shouted bad boy to him. Klaus chuckled before he turned and saw that the first girl he had killed was starting to complain and scratching her eyes as well.

"Im not sure but they seem to be catching it."

"Shes not bleeding."

"Yet." Trixie stared at Stefan as Ray jumped and knocked Trixie to the ground then fled from them. Stefan cursed as he jumped after Ray and as he wrapped his hands around the hybrids neck Ray snarled.

"Stefan watch out!" Trixie reached out to try and block Rya but she was a second too late and Ray bite Stefan's arm as he was flung from the vampire and fled into the woods.

"Great now hes missing!"

"What did you want me to do! Let him feast on my only friend! Stefan are you ok!" Trixie rushed to him and as he hissed at her when she grabbed his arm she hissed as well when she saw the bite getting uglier.

"Nasty bite there mate."

"Screw it, hes gone. He will probably die soon anyways." Klaus growled and as Stefan walked over to him and waited he sneered at him.

"What?"

"Im bite, I need your blood to heal."

"Tough shit, you'll probably die soon anyways."

"NIK!" Trixie glared at him as he sighed and rolled his eyes.

"Fine! Go fetch Ray and when you get back I will heal you. Rather not have a rabid hybrid around anyways." Stefan nodded and as he left Trixie turned to say something to Klaus but noticed the other hybrids starting to walk around. She froze when two of the guys glanced her way and smiled, starting to walk towards them but when Klaus turned around to see what was freaking her out so much he sighed and rolled his eyes growling to the guys, making them in turn glance away and walk off.

"Are they...thinking Im food?" Klaus shrugged as he walked back to the sitting log and grabbed the human boys arm. He smiled and went to bite him but stopped when he noticed Trixie glancing around the whole group of hybrids.

"Come here, they wont touch you. Here, you need to feed." Trixie nodded as she walked over to Klaus and grabbed the boy by his neck and sunk her teeth into him. The girl they first changed, his girlfriend Trixie could tell, growled at them and as she did Trixie smiled when she finally dropped the now drained and dead boy to the ground.

"Opps, sorry." She wiped a drop of his blood form the side of her lips as the girl growled and wet to charge her. Klaus gripped the girl by the back of her neck and drug her to face him as he smiled.

"Careful love. There is but only one Alpha male and female here." He threw her to the other side of the clearing and as she turned and glared back to Trixie she smiled to the girl hybrid. SHe snapped at Trixie who in turn growled as she inflamed her whole body with the blue ice flame. The hybrid snarled and as she went to take a swipe at Trixie she whimpered in pain when she felt the stinging cold of the icy fire. She pulled her hand back as Trixie laughed and looked to her now frozen fingers but when she looked up she noticed Trixie mocking a jump at her and yelped as she turned her heels and rushed off into the group. Trixie chuckled as she extinguished her flame and turned to see Klaus looking around the group. She followed his gaze and as she saw that another guy was starting to bleed form his eyes she frowned.

"Are they all going to go rabid Nik?" He shrugged at her as he looked to the others that were now turning to look at him.

"I am not sure, but you need to stick close." She nodded as she gripped the back of his shirt and pulled herself to his side, glancing around the clearing to see that most of the hybrids were now watching her as if she was their treat. She shivered at the thought of having to fight off these hybrids, mainly because Klaus might be extra mad at her, but if they were going rabid she knew there was only one way to save themselves...and Klaus wasnt going to like it.

Stefan trudged back though the bushes and dropped Ray on the ground. As he glanced around the clearing he heard the sharp intake of breath and the scrapping of wood against bone as Trixie hissed and snapped near Klaus's ears. He growled to her as Stefan's eyes widened. He rushed over to the hybrid and before Klaus knew what hit him Stefan shoved him back and dropped to face Trixie.

"What the hell happened!"

"His freaking hybrids did this! They went crazy!"

"I dont know what went wrong! I did everything I was supposed to do! I killed the witch, I killed the vampire and I used the doppelgangers blood! Maybe I was supposed to kill her, I dont know! God this is my fault Trixie Im sorry!"

"Once again, NOT HELPING!" Trixie huffed as she gripped the large tree branch she had sticking out of her front as she tried to shove it backwards again.

"How the hell did this happen!"

"I tried to run, there were too many and most were healing up to fast for me to take care of. His stupid ass told me to run instead of concentrating and killing them all but the females had other ideas. I got about half way up the tree when one attacked me and slammed me and this thing back to the ground. It made the pause when they smelt the blood and Klaus got them but he cant seem to figure out how to get this out!"

"Its through your chest Trixie! One wrong move and it will kill you!"

"Shove it Nik and fix this!" Klaus dropped beside Stefan and as he lifted Trixie to sitting up Stefan smiled. He used his hands to gently break the back of the branch off before bracing himself on her shoulder and frowning to Klaus.

"Get ready, Im going to shove it the rest of the way through."

"Wait what!" Trixie didnt have enough time to respond further when Stefan slammed his hand down on the end of the branch sticking out from her back and shoving it and his hand through her chest, barely missing her heart. She gasped and took in a ragged breath as Klaus froze too and watched her slump over into his arms. He growled and glared at Stefan who was wiping the blood off his hand but as Klaus was about to move he felt Trixies hands gripping his arms lightly and heard her moan.

"Trix?"

"You asshole, that hurt." She coughed before Klaus turned her over in his lap and quickly shoved his wrist to her mouth. She took a few swallows of his blood, he watched her chest heal up and stitch itself together, and when she glanced to Stefan he was wearing a hard mask but she knew he was scared.

"You alright then?"

"Thank you. Yes, at least you had the guts to hurt me. No offence Nik but I knew you couldnt bring yourself to do that." Klaus shook his head as he watched her regain her strength and color in her face. Stefan surveyed the area and as he went to move his knees buckled and he knelt beside Trixie faking a smile as she glanced over to him.

"WHeres Ray?"

"He attacked me, I had to take him out."

"Damn it all to the pits of hell! I did what should have been enough to make this work."

"Maybe youre right, you should have killed Elena."

"Maybe, but maybe not. The witch who put this curse on me is a crafty and bitchy one. She did something and to find that loophole I need to talk to a fiend of mine. You, get ready and pack up some things. We are going on another trip."

"Yeah, fun." Stefan sighed as he tried to get up but took a ragged breath himself and paused for a moment before making himself stand and walk away.

"Nik, heal him please. He did what you asked and he helped me." Klaus nodded as he grabbed a nearby beer bottle and bled some of his blood into it. He glanced over his shoulder as he picked Trixie up bridal style and grinned to the vampire.

"Here, drink up. Seems for now, you two are my only comrades. Dont need to loose one of you do I?" Stefan took the bottle and glanced to Trixie who nodded and made him smile. He drank Klaus's blood and as his wounds and pain slowly went away Klaus started down the hill back towards the are they came there in. Stefan soon caught up and as Trixie saw him with two backpacks she smiled.

"You got that iPod and IPod Dock right?"

"thought youd like that, and a laptop. You can hack it later."

"IPad? I saw one or two somewhere around there."

"Sure did girl. You racked up. Happy early birthday."

"Stefan? Really? My birthday is in October." Stefan shrugged as she chuckled and nuzzled her head to Klaus's chest as they continued their walk back to the car. Klaus promised that they would stay at a hotel that night before going to the next town and as he was a man of his words they did stop, at a fancy one near Chicago, and Klaus even went all out as to find a few high classed people to bring home for them to feed from. Trixie needed it and he told Stefan he deserved it. He really didnt care if Stefan did or not but it made Trixie happy to see him at least trying to be nice so he decided it would be better to grin and bear being kind rather than pissing off the girl he was trying to win over.
