There were five or so different dresses laying on the bench and Talon laid out beside them. Onlookers in the store stared at the skeleton cat and as they passed he would flick his ear or swipe his tail letting them know he was alive and could sense them. Trixie was trying on her sixth dress, a small one piece that had no straps and came to mid thigh. She didnt like the particular make of the dress but it did have flare when she looked at how the silk pieces shined in the light. It was a red dress, half cotton half silk, and as she stepped out of the dressing room Talon looked up and smiled to her. She twirled and the cat nodded, making her smile. She went and grabbed her other clothes and put them in a bag as she decided to wear the dress out, it was getting late. Trixie handed Klaus's credit card tot he cashier and as the cashier rang her up for over five hundred for the dress and shoes to match Trixie smiled evilly as Talon tried to hide a chuckle.

"That cat seems sick. How is he even alive?" Trixie glanced at the cashier and smirked as she reached down t pet Talon.

"Hes got anorexia and he is fighting for his life every day. Im just glad he can still walk." The cashier suddenly frowned as she oohed at the cat and bent to pet him. He glared at Trixie as the cashier finished her transaction and handed her the bag of her old clothes for her to exit the shop.

"Nice one. Im a cat with an eating disease huh?"

"What else am I supposed to tell them? Youre a new breed? The skeleton cat?" Talon chuckled his low laugh as Trixie turned down an alleyway near the Grill and wanted to head to the woods to rush back to the house but as she got to the end of the ally she was overcast by a shadow and turned quickly to see Damon standing behind her.

"When did you et back into town?"

"Earlier. Stefan told me what happened to Mikael. Im glad Elena did it and not you. Now Nik wont kill you." Damon chuckled as he walked closer to Trixie but Trixie didnt notice the evil look on his face as he got beside her and offered to hold her bag and walk her home. She smiled as she turned to find Talon but noticed he was vanished for the moment and when she went to look back to Damon she felt a hard stinging pain in her neck. She gasped and glanced to her side to notice someone she never seen before smiling at her as Damon frowned and tossed her bag into the dumpster behind the Grill.

"Take her to the house, Ive got to meet with my son."

"What did you give her? Vervain doesnt work too long on her you know?"

"Witch Hazel in liquid form will keep her down. especial mixed with vervain. She wont be a bother to you. Now go! I will see you there soon." Mikael smiled as Trixie tried to hit him but failed miserably and fell to the ground. Damon picked her up and as he glanced to Mikael he nodded before vanishing towards Tyler's house where Klaus had apparently moved the party so vampires not invited in would stay out. Damon smirked as he sat Trixie, gagged and still weak, inside car near the house before he walked away letting a hybrid that Klaus had made stand guard. Trixie groaned as she moved her head side to side and wondered how she was going to get out of this one.

"Need my help my witch?" She smiled as Talon slashed his claws down the ropes on her hands and as she brought the vervain/witch hazel covered wrists to her front she rubbed them and glanced around. Talon was sitting on the arm rest in the car watching the side as Trixie growled and looked around to see what she could do to get out and get away. The witch hazel and vervain mix in her system was still making her a bit weak so as she surveyed the area she wondered if there might be something she could do without drawing the hybrids attention. She smiled as Talon glanced to the tree line and nodded. As he disappeared and ran to the trees she made it loud and clear to the hybrids that someone was close by and as they went to check it out Trixie snuck out of the vehicle and around to the woods nearest her. She had to get to the house and find Klaus, if not, something bad was going to happen.

She made her way to the front and as she waited near the door she saw an angry Mikael fussing to one of the hybrids and searching around for someone. She smiled and she knew it was probably her he was looking for but as she walked towards the back she thanked whatever god was watching over her that Tyler was right there with Caroline and even though fussing he could still let her in.

"Tyler! Tyler, hey. Sorry Im late, could I get an invite in please?"

"Yeah, Klaus is looking for you. Worrying actually but come on in. I think he went up front or something." Trixie nodded and as she went to enter Caroline grabbed her arm.

"Arent you supposed to be with Damon?"

"No why?"

"He called me and told me hed be late so he could pick you up." Trixie eyed Tyler and as he gave her a knowing look she sighed before she turned and glared right at Caroline.

"Care, I want you to go home, forget that you were supposed to be here, and tomorrow call and check on Tyler. Tonight, dont talk to any hybrids and only remember that you were in danger and this is for your own good." Caroline frowned as she suddenly thought she shouldnt be there and as she said goodbye and vanished Tyler smiled to Trixie.

"thanks."

"I know Damon is up to something but what?"

"I dont know, but Klaus has ordered his hybrids to kill anyone who tries to hurt him. Except for you of course. For some reason he thinks he can handle any anger you will throw at him."

"Wait, Damon's trying to kill him!" Tyler frowned as he shook his head.

"Forced not to tell. compulsion sorry. But yes, he is." Trixie nodded as she sighed and left Tyler at the back door while she rushed to the front and saw Mikael and one of the hybrid girls standing there, holding Elena in their grasps, and talking to Klaus. Damon was on the other side of the stairs, watching Klaus and not even noticing Trixie, but as she saw movement in her hind sight she noticed Elena again walking the halls with Jeremy. Trixie freaked as she figured out real quick that somehow, somewhere, something went wrong and they either had the wrong Elena and didnt know it or Damon had the whole thing planned and set up. Trixie frowned as Talon weaved his way through her feet and nodded to Klaus.

"He has some anger in himself but I believe it is all towards that man that dares to call himself a father. Your friends dont care about your safety either my witch. I overheard a lot of talk about getting rid of everyone. What shall we do?" Trixie eyed the cat as she shrugged but soon smiled. She noticed Damon getting ready to attack Klaus and as she made sure no one else was around she held her hand out and concentrated on Damon, giving him an aneurism and making him drop to the floor. She walked over to him and grinned.

"Even with that witch hazel blend I still got enough power to take your sorry ass down. You will regret this Damon." Trixie reached down and snapped his neck, grabbing the stake he had as well, then turned to walk towards Klaus but had Stefan slam her up against the wall first.

"What the hell did you do that for!"

"It was either let him try to kill Nik and Nik kill him or let him kill Nik and his hybrids kill him. Which one would have left your brother alive. You want freedom Stefan, you will give this to Nik and you will beg for forgiveness. You led us here, now fix it!" Stefan glared at Trixie and then glanced to Klaus. He sighed, knowing that she was right, and as he held his hand out she gladly put the stake in it and smiled as he walked slowly towards Klaus. Both Mikael and Klaus turned to see Stefan walking towards them and as he stopped and pulled the stake out Trixie noticed that Mikael frowned but glanced slowly to Elena or whoever she was, and Trixie frowned now. She watched as Stefan went to give the stake to Klaus but Mikael growled and eyed a hybrid that was at his side, and she suddenly jumped into the house and snatched the stake away before Klaus could grab it. As she went to move backwards, Klaus was glaring and about to attack which would have put him outside, Trixie screamed out and threw her hands towards them, halting everyone as the hybrids, Mikael, Stefan and Elena all went to their knees in pain.

"Trixie!" She turned and looked to Klaus and as he smiled she walked towards him, picking up the dropped stake and handing it to him, as the others started to get their barring about themselves. The hybrids were confused as the girl beside Mikael glanced to him and then to Elena. Stefan was shocked as well as he glanced to her but when Mikael looked at her he hissed.

"Katherine!" She smirked a bit before Klaus jumped onto his father and rammed the stake deep into his heart. He backed up the steps as Mikael screamed in pain and glanced to Klaus and then Trixie before bursting into flames and dying before her eyes. Klaus turned to Stefan and as he looked him over Trixie stood beside him as Damon walked out to them rubbing his neck.

"What did you do!"

"He earned his freedom. You no longer have to do as I say. You are free. Thank you." Stefan nodded and as he glanced to Trixie he kissed her cheek before vanishing and leaving her by herself. Damon glared at her and as he growled he went to rush her but was tackled to the ground by Talon who was baring fangs and red eyes as he growled back to Damon, freaking him out a bit.

"You touch her and you die!" Damon went wide eyed as Trixie smiled and reached down, picking up the cat as Klaus came to stand beside her.

"Every good witch has a familiar Damon, they are born to protect their witch and with how you treated me lately I wouldnt get on his bad side. You need to go Damon and the next time Nik sees you I wont stop him from killing you." Damon growled as he vanished from his spot on the floor and left a slightly confused Klaus and a heated and angry Trixie.

"What happened to you earlier?"

"I'll explain later Nik, lets just...go to sleep." Klaus smiled as he nodded and wrapped his arm around her wait, taking them to a place nearby that he had already started building while they were gone and where they already had a few rooms done. She smiled as Klaus left her to get settled down and as she changed clothes and got into the bed that was in the room she noticed Talon curling up in front of her and smiling as he started to close his eyes. Klaus came back shortly and as he cuddled up to her back he reached over and for once petted the cats head.

"Dont look too much into it but thank you for watching over her." Talon glared at him as he growled lowly.

"Dont look too little into it but remember that where you will fail for her, I shall succeed and always be there for only her. You need to decide whats more important, hybrids or family." Talon smiled as he laid his head back down and left a startled and thoughtful Klaus wondering about what he had said. The cat knew more than he was letting on and if he watched out for Trixie no matter what Klaus didnt care but he was starting to think he might be right. Hybrids or family? He needed to decide.
