This is so not a Prank:

Beth couldn't believe she was here, doing this. It was the middle of the night and the gang was at school, Bonnie, Elena, Caroline, Beth and Tyler. They were here to do senior prank night. It was mostly Caroline's idea but the others went through with it too. Besides, after Beth made sure that Alaric was safe and okay, Elena made her come the next night. She said that she needed a bit of normal, which was why she agreed. They were now in a dark classroom after setting up a bunch of mousetraps. They were hiding after hearing someone in the hallway.

Someone opened the door and stepped inside. They turned on the light as they stepped on a trap, releasing a bunch of other ones. They all calmed down when they saw it was only Matt. Beth was bent down next to Tyler. She almost tripped back into one of the numerous mousetraps but Tyler caught her just in time. "Thanks." She muttered as he helped her up.

But Caroline went crazy. "Oh come one! Seriously! Do you know how long it took for us to see all of this up?"

"Forgot about senior prank night, huh?" Tyler asked. Matt was still trying to catch his breath. He smiled over at Beth who smiled back. She had finally gotten to see him this morning. Bonnie had told her about Jeremy seeing Vicki and Anna and about how he told Matt. She just hoped he was doing okay. She had agreed to this prank night only for the sake of her friends and that she needed to get out. She was still angry with Damon and hadn't talked to him. She just needed to cool down.

"Clearly."

"How could you forget? We've only been waiting for this since freshmen year!" Caroline exclaimed like it was the worst thing in the world. Tyler rolled his eyes at Beth and she nudged him.

"Yeah, Matt. If I'm doing this, you're doing this." Elena told him.

"I'm kind of surprised that any of you are doing this."

"Caroline's making us." Bonnie explained simply. Matt nodded, that sentence explained it all. If Caroline really wanted something, she usually got it.

"We're about to be seniors!" Caroline said. Beth smiled; this was the going to be the same thing she's been saying all night. "These are the memories that will stay with us forever, and if we don't…"

"And if we don't create these memories now, then what's the point of it all." Beth finished for her. Everyone else snickered.

"Go ahead!" Caroline playfully hit her. "Make fun, I don't care."

"You're all lame!" Tyler announced as he grabbed a bag. "And I've got ten more classrooms to prank." He said. Caroline raised her hand, as if saying that, that's what she wanted to see.

Beth laughed. "I should probably go help. Memories need to be made." She said in agreement with Caroline. Caroline smiled wider.

"I love you!" She called out as she left the room. Beth laughed as she caught up with Tyler who was doling out plastic wraps to other seniors. He led her off to another hallways where the other set of faculty toilets were. They made sure to place plastic wrap over the seats tightly.

"This is surprisingly fun." Beth admitted as they left the bathroom.

"Well, I'm here, Beth. Of course it's fun." He joked with a wink and she rolled her eyes at him.

"Of course. My doubts are all gone." She said. He grinned. "Hey, do you think that Matt's okay? He just seemed… a bit stressed."

"Well, he has been missing you all summer and finding about everything didn't really help but he'll be fine." Tyler assured her but he could still see she was worried as she closed the door behind them. "Why do you still have the hots for him?" He smirked. Beth rolled her eyes at him and walked away. She knew that her and Matt wouldn't work out. They both had a lot to deal with but she was so not in the mood for the third degree tonight.

"On that note, I'm going to go help with the pool."

"That's not an answer!" He called out as she turned for a second.

"That's the only one you're getting!"

As she walked to the pool, she bumped into Matt coming out of the poolroom. "So Sorry." He apologized quickly as he grabbed her by the waist to keep her from falling.

"That's okay. I was just on my way to the pool, to see if you guys needed any help." Beth told him as they stood up straight. He quickly let go of her and cleared his throat.

"We're actually just finished up. I was going to go over to the gym to help out there." He told her. "You can come help, if you want."

"Yeah, sure. I should do what Caroline says and 'make memories.'" Beth said and Matt laughed. She didn't think it was a good idea to bring up his sister so they walked to the gym in silence. Beth opened the door to see Bonnie, who looked like she just walked in as well. Klaus was standing in front of Elena near the center of the gym. And two other students were over to the side. Beth's breath hitched seeing him. What was he doing here?

"Beth get out of here!" Elena yelled to her.

Before Beth could even register her words, Klaus rushed over to stand behind her and in front of Matt. She quickly turned around to see a smirk on his face. "Ah, I was wondering when my favorite witch would show up. Now we can get started." He told her. He looked over at the other students, one who had their left foot up. "Ah, Dana, why don't you and Chad sit tight?" They collapsed onto the gym floor as Klaus turned back to Beth. "So, sweetheart, is there something you forgot to mention? I assume you're the reason why Elena's still walking around alive? I thought we had an honest relationship."

"I guess you were wrong about a lot of things." He smirked and she swallowed hard. "If you want to blame someone, blame me. It's none of the others fault. It was my choice."

"Oh, there's no need for blame, love." He said with a grin. "Just your witchy interference seems to have undesirable side affects, as you know." He gave her a look. He was talking about the failed hybrids. "And since you caused the problem, I'm going to have you find the fix." Suddenly, the other pair of doors opened. There was Rebekah holding Tyler as she came in. She locked eyes with Beth. Rebekah seemed to be in shock for a minute before shaking it off and turning away from her.

"Get off of me!" Tyler told her. Rebekah had him in her arms but he was struggling to get out of her grip.

"Hush now." Rebekah replied.

Beth tried to run to him but Klaus grabbed her arm. "I'd like you all to meet my sister, Rebekah." He raised an arm and gestured to his sibling. "Word of warning…she can be quite mean."

"Don't be an ass." She glared at him before tossing him Tyler. He let go of Beth to grab him by the neck.

"Leave him alone!" Beth ordered.

"I'm going to make this very simple." He told them as she dragged Tyler away from the group. Beth could see that Tyler was scared, even if he didn't show it. "Every time I attempt to turn a werewolf into a vampire hybrid, they die during transition. It's quite horrible actually." He told the group. He bit his forearm and force-fed Tyler his blood. Beth moved to stop him but Matt grabbed her by the waist. He knew that if she tried to stop him, she could get hurt. "I need you to find a way to save my hybrids, Elizabeth. And for Tyler's sake…. you better hurry." He quickly snapped his neck. Beth let out a small shriek in seeing her friend fall dead to the floor.

"No!" Beth ran over to his body and checked and saw he was really dead. She breathed heavily as she ran a hand through her head. He was dead. No it was worst, he was in transition. Matt came over to her and saw that he was too. He placed a hand on Beth's back.

"He killed him." Matt said but Beth shook her head, as did Elena.

"He's not dead. Klaus's blood will turn him into a vampire."

"And if Elizabeth and Bonnie are successful, he'll live through his transition." He told them as he got up out of his seat in the bleachers. Beth just glared at him. He knew exactly what would happen if she couldn't find a solution. He just stared back at her, emotionless but there was that look of guilt in his eyes. He knew that Tyler was her friend and he still did that to him. Klaus didn't like that he was feeling bad but he shook it off. "Go on! Go and fetch your grimoires and enchantments and whatnot." He grabbed Elena by her arm. "I'll hold on to Elena…for safekeeping."

Elena gave them a look, telling them to go. Beth nodded. She knew that she had to find a way to save Tyler. They only had an hour or two. Matt helped her up and with Bonnie they left. Matt and Bonnie were walking beside Beth in the hallway. "What are you going to do?"

"I have no idea. The curse is over a thousand years old. Our grimoires don't go back that far." Beth told him. She stopped as soon as she was a little bit away from the gym.

Matt turned to Bonnie. "Can you ask those dead witches that helped you?"

Bonnie shook her head. "I don't have contact with them anymore…they cut me off when I brought Jeremy back to life." She told her somberly.

"That's it!" Beth exclaimed. "We can't contact the dead. Jeremy can." They all split up to find their phones and call Jeremy. Beth ran to the room that she laid all the mousetraps. She left her bag in there with her phone. She grabbed it and tried to call Jeremy. After the 10th time, he still wasn't picking up. She even called Damon. He wasn't picking up either and she really needed him now. They were running out of time and quickly. She called Bonnie's cell phone. "He's not picking up."

"Get to the pool." Bonnie said breathlessly. "Matt's drowning himself." Beth dropped her phone into her pocket and ran to the pool. She just hoped Bonnie or her got there before he could succeed. Beth ran and pushed open the door quickly. She saw Matt, drenched lying on the side of the pool with Bonnie, wet trying to revive him.

"No, Matt!" Beth yelled as she ran and kneeled besides them. Matt wasn't breathing. Bonnie sat back as Beth tried to perform CPR on him.

"H-he tried to drown himself." Bonnie explained shaking.

"No. Come on, Matt. You can't do this." Beth said as she tried CPR. She took deep breathes into his mouth. It wasn't working though. "Matt! Wake up!" She demanded as she gave him more air. Bonnie was near tears as Beth hit his chest again with her palms and Matt started to spit up water. He was awake. "You're okay. It's okay." She said soothingly as her and Bonnie helped sit him upright.

Beth and Bonnie gave Matt a jacket so he didn't freeze and they left the pool. "As soon as you're feeling better, I'm going to kill you." Beth told him seriously but Matt was still shaken up. He stopped and turned to face both of the witches.

"It worked. I saw her. I saw Vicki."

"You did?" Bonnie asked doubtful.

"She said she has a message for you." Matt told her.

"For me?"

"And Beth." He said and that surprised her. Beth understood a little. She knew that Vicki died but she didn't know why she would have a message for her. She didn't even know her. "From the witch that put the hybrid curse on Klaus. She said that Elena shouldn't have survived Klaus' ritual. The hybrids can't transition because Elena's still alive."

"Tyler…" Bonnie spoke. She knew exactly what that meant.

"He's going to die isn't he?" Matt asked worried. Beth shook her head fiercely. She couldn't let Tyler die. She wouldn't let that happen to him. There had to be something else that, they didn't think of. Something that could save him.

"I wouldn't be too sure of that." A voice behind them said. The three quickly turned to see Klaus, leisurely leaning against the doorway. "Given the choice, doppelganger or hybrid, I go hybrid every time." He told them seriously. Beth's heart quickened. She knew what he meant. He'd kill Elena to save Tyler. He rushed away before anyone could stop him.

Beth tried to go after him but Matt held her back. "Beth, don't! He could kill you!" He told her worried.

"Well, I need to find some way to stall him." Beth said pulling out of his grip. "I'll see you later just stay out of sight, ok?" She asked and she left before either of them could stop her. She ran to see if she could find Klaus anywhere.

She heard voices in the cafeteria. She ran down the hall and opened the door to see Stefan about to attack Elena as she screamed. Beth quickly gave him a headache and he fell to the ground, yelling and clutching his head. "Now, that wasn't very nice, Glinda." Klaus commented as he walked over to her helping Elena up. Her neck was bleeding.

"Please, Klaus. Don't. The witch is wrong." Beth insisted.

"Oh, really? I think that the witch who put the curse on me, would know exactly how to get my hybrids working." He replied with a smirk. Beth was trying to think on her feet but it was hard. Killing Elena can't possibly work since he did that already.

"Okay. Elena was technically dead. You killed her!"

"And then you brought her back to life." Klaus reminded her, irritated. She was stalling and he knew that.

"Yeah but she was dead! And you broke the curse, right? You are now a hybrid. Killing her won't help you create more hybrids." Beth said quickly. Elena stayed quiet as Beth spoke to him. He seemed to be thinking this over. She was technically right. He did kill the doppelganger and she died. The curse was broken. She was desperate for him to listen to her and it was Tyler's life at stake. If anything happened it would be on her.

"All right, love. I'm listening." He told her. Elena looked at him in surprise. Klaus didn't listen to anyone. Beth's eyes widened in surprise also but she continued to talk.

"There has to be another reason why your hybrids aren't working. Killing Elena won't do anything." Beth said convincingly. Stefan was still on the floor from the massive headache Beth gave him.

Klaus thought about that. The Original witch hated him. He knew that and he did kill Elena. There was something else that had to be done to create the hybrids. He stopped, getting an idea. He grinned. "I believe you're right, Elizabeth. But I will need to use Elena for some blood. For a experiment, will you." He took a step towards them.

"Anything you need her for, you can use me instead." Beth said stepping in front of Elena. She wasn't going to let Klaus hurt Elena anymore. She was still in pain from being bitten and she just wanted to get her away from Stefan and Klaus.

He chuckled. "It won't work, sweetheart. It has to be the doppelganger."

"Yeah it will…. I can be used instead of her." She admitted. Elena and Klaus both looked at her curiously. Elena had no idea where she was going with this. "I could have been used instead of her in the ritual. Because of being reincarnated my blood could be used the same as hers was."

"If that were the case you would have offered up yourself instead of Elena here." Klaus told her. He knew that for a fact. She would never let Elena go sacrifice herself, knowing that she could have done it instead. Elizabeth wasn't selfish like that. If she could have saved her friend from going through then she would.

"Yes but Elijah stopped me." Beth said. Elena was now listening in interest along with Klaus. "After we found out he knew I wouldn't let him stop me so, he compelled me to forget. I didn't remember until you daggered him and by then it was too late." Klaus seemed to be taking her words into account. She wouldn't lie about this, not when her friend's life could be at stake. And, knowing his brother, he would do that as a last resort. Especially if Elizabeth's life was at stake. He looked into her eyes and saw that she was telling the truth.

Klaus put out his hand. "Then, let's test it out, shall we?" He suggested. Beth moved to take a step towards him but stopped.

"Let Elena leave first." She demanded. Elena shook her head at her but she ignored it. She wanted to get Elena out of there first. Klaus would probably go back and try to kill her again. The least she could do was get away from him and close to Bonnie.

"I don't think so, love." Klaus argued. He wanted to keep the doppelganger close to him at all times, in case, killing her was what needed to be done to create his hybrids. "What if I you're lying to me?"

"I'm not. Let her go, first."

"You've lied to me before." He told her with an icy tone in his voice. It sent chills up Beth's spine. He was obviously getting impatient. All he wanted was to find a way to make hybrids but Beth didn't want Elena in any more danger than she already was.

"No, I just didn't tell you everything." She pointed out, which was true. He let out a low growl, knowing she was right. "You didn't ask either. Please, let her go and you can have my blood to test."

Klaus knew that, they weren't going to get anywhere. "Fine. She may leave but you have to stay right here." He told her. Beth nodded to Elena.

"Beth, no!" She wasn't going to let friend get hurt because of her. If she was right or wrong, she could get hurt.

"I'll be fine, Elena. Just go, please." She urged her to leave. Elena went to argue but she interrupted. "Go find Bonnie and Matt. They need you." Her eyes were pleading as Elena reluctantly left, with one last look to Stefan. The cafeteria door closed behind her as she ran off.

She whipped her brown hair back as she turned to face Klaus; he was in front of her. She took an involuntary step back and he stepped forward. His blue eyes stared into her gray-green ones. "This will only hurt for a minute, love." He told her as he grabbed her arm and bit down. She cringed at the pain. Klaus looked at her as her blood flowed into a vial he took out. "Let's hope for your werewolf friend's sake, this will work." He told her. Stefan must have smelled the blood because the next thing Beth saw was him getting up. Stefan looked at her with hunger for bloodlust in his eyes and before Klaus or her could move, Stefan attacked and everything went black.
