Hello my wonderful fanfiction readers! I would like to thank you for your constant support and encouragement. It means a lot to me and motivates me to continue writing this story. I am extremely sorry that I haven't updated in so long. I know no excuses but here is my next chapter. I hope it will make up for the long hiatus. Also before I get into the next chapter, I just want to share my thoughts on Klaroline. I bet every single one of you have probably seen that scene in TVD 5x11 more than once. lol! I know I have! ;) I have to say, it was awesome but I wish he didn't promise her that he would never come back. Like come on! At least they could have shown a good-bye scene between the two. I mean he could have told her that she may not be ready to be with him right now but she knows where to find him! Right? I mean come on TVD writers! There has to be some story as to why an over thousand year old vampire falls for a new vampire. What was it that caught his attention after all these years by this young blonde vampire? I really hope they get them together in the future for good. Otherwise, that promise to be her last love was of no good. I mean if Klaus forgets about her after this, it means that he just wanted to get in her pants and I don't think that really makes sense. I mean all that wooing...just for a quick one shot in the forest. I don't think so! I really hope it goes in our favour later on in the seasons to come! :) Enjoy this next chapter! Also, there is a lot of scene changes between Bonnie and Kol and the kids. :)
Bonnie and Kol heard the the hybrids take stand in front of the shed doors again. Bonnie looked up at Kol who shook his head. He then touched her hand and gave her an image showing Bonnie making a little bit of noise to call the hybrids in. Then she heard Kol's voice saying Trust me. Bonnie nodded; Kol closed the coffin lid and hid in the corner. She knew that the slightest sound would draw the hybrids in. From what she deciphered from Kol's vision was that he wanted to take them by surprise. She picked up the shovel that was hung on the wall and dropped it on the ground. The two hybrids came bursting in through the doors. They saw the shovel on the ground and then looked at Bonnie.
"How did you get in here?" one of the hybrids asked and the other one charged towards her. Suddenly, in a matter of seconds, Kol yanked out one of the hybrid's heart. Bonnie sent the other one to the ground with an aneurism and Kol took this chance to pull out his heart.
"Well, that's done," Kol said as he wiped his hand on the dead hybrid's shirt.
"That was close," Bonnie said. "But we can't keep them here like this."
"You're right!" Kol said. Then he picked up one of the hybrids and dumped them into the coffin followed by the other. "Do you have a pen and paper?"
"Yeah, here," Bonnie took out a piece of paper and a pen. Kol took it from her and started to write. Bonnie peeped over his shoulder to see what it said.
Mikael, you selfish arshole! I promise you that once I find my brothers and sister and my nieces and nephews, I will hunt you down and kill you! You may laugh when you read this note but I have someone who will help me kill you, Mother. That's right! She's back and you know she's the most powerful witch there is. Run, you arse! This is a head start, because I will finish you!
Lot of Love Kol
"That's bitter sweet," Bonnie said.
"That's who I am," Kol smirked as he put the note in the coffin and closed the door. "Come on darling, let's get out of here."
Bonnie followed him out and spelled the lock behind her. Mikael would have to try harder to get into the shed now. They walked out of the garden and down the street.
"That clothing store is still open," Bonnie said. "Wait here; let me get you some clothes."
"Why can't I come in?" Kol said.
"Have you looked at yourself? You're covered in blood!" Bonnie said.
"Touché," Kol said. "I'll wait here." Bonnie nodded and quickly ran into the store. She picked up a white t-shirt, black leather jacket, and a pair of runner. She walked up to the front desk to pay.
"All done?" the lady said. Bonnie nodded and smiled. "Did you find everything you were looking for?"
"Yes thank-you," Bonnie replied. The lady smiled. She scanned and bagged all the clothes. Bonnie handed over her credit card. Once the transaction was completed, Bonnie grabbed her purchases and left the store. She ran back to the place she had asked Kol to wait but he wasn't there.
"Kol?" Bonnie said but he wasn't around. "Damn it! Where'd he go?"
"Over here love," Kol said as he walked towards her.
"Where'd you go? You had me panicking!" Bonnie said.
"Just went for a bite," Kol said as he licked his lips. Bonnie rolled her eyes.
"I hope you didn't kill anyone because that would draw attention," Bonnie said.
"No, just a drink, fed them my blood and compelled them to forget," Kol said nonchalantly.
"Anyways, here. I'll stand guard while you change," Bonnie said as she handed over the bag of clothes.
"Thanks, but you don't have to stand guard," Kol said as he smirked.
"Just go!" Bonnie pushed him behind a tree. Kol started to change.
"So tell me love, how did you find me?" Kol said from behind the tree.
"I'm not saying anything here. I'll tell you once we get back to the hotel," Bonnie said.
"Okay, let's go then," Kol came out looking hot in his new clothes. Bonnie refrained from staring.
"Okay, let's go," Bonnie said as they hailed down a cab.
Once they got back to the hotel, Bonnie closed the doors and burned some sage. She closed her eyes and chanted a spell. She opened her eyes to find Kol lying on her bed.
"Didn't you sleep enough?" Bonnie said as she sat down at the edge of the bed.
"Yes, but I like this bed. You're welcome to join me love," Kol said.
"I believe you have questions," Bonnie ignored his prior comment.
"Right, so how did you find me and where is everyone else," Kol said as he sat up.
"Kol, it's been seven years!" Bonnie said.
"What?" Kol said.
"Yes, and I found you by doing a locator spell using the Arianna and Zane's blood.
"What? Are they here? Are they okay? It's been seven years! Bloody hell! Where is everyone else?" Kol said as he suddenly stood up.
Bonnie explained to him how they were living in Scotland for the past two years and how the kids are doing really well. She explained how there are places the others are and that she just started here. Once Bonnie was done, Kol sat down. It was a lot to take in.
"This is bollocks! I'm going to kill Mikael once I get my hands on him. I've been stuck in this coffin for seven years! I've missed seven years of my nieces and nephews lives!" Kol said.
"Kol, I understand but think about Klaus and Caroline and Rebekah and Stefan. How will they feel when they realize they've missed all the firsts of their children," Bonnie said.
"You're right. We need to find them. Do you know where they are?" Kol asked.
"I only have the city they are in. I don't know who is where exactly," Bonnie said.
"What cities are they in," Kol said.
"New York, New Orleans, Mystic Falls, Washington DC and Pittsburgh," Bonnie said.
"That's interesting," Kol said.
"What's so interesting about these places," Bonnie asked.
"Well, these are all our favourite places," Kol said. "Bekah loves New York, New Orleans was a new home for Nik; and to Elijah, Mystic Falls was always home. Finn being the eldest is probably in Washington DC and I am assuming Elena must be in Pittsburgh."
"Okay, I get that theory of you being put in your favourite places but why would Elena be in Pittsburgh? I mean she's never been there," Bonnie said.
"Well, it's because Tatia moved to our village from that area. There start of the Petrova lineage." Kol said.
"I see. I guess we should start planning for our next destination," Bonnie said.
"Sure thing love. Though, the question remains, who would you like to find first?" Kol said.
"Caroline and Rebekah," Bonnie said. "I need to find the parents before anyone else."
"Good choice. I would suggest we go to New Orleans first. It's a little closer than New York," Kol said. "We will also have to go in with a little preparation. That land is known for its witches, vampires and werewolves."
"Okay, we will do that first thing tomorrow morning. I'm just going to give Esther a call and let her know that I found you," Bonnie said.

Airport
Liz, Esther and the kids were sitting at the airport waiting for their flight when Esther's phone rang. Liz looked at her.
"It's Bea," Esther said and Liz nodded. The kids were into their game of cards to pay much attention.
"Hello," Esther said.
"Esther, I found Kol," Bonnie said. Esther put a hand on her heart and took a breath in. She smiled.
"That's great news Bea! We have some trouble here and we are on our way to Virginia," Esther said.
"What kind of trouble?" Bonnie said panicked. Kol stood in front of her concentrating on the conversation.
"We were given information from our sources that he had his friend had arrived in the United Kingdom," Esther said.
"What? Mikael and Silas are in England?" Bonnie said.
"Yes, Lorene and I thought that it would be most appropriate to go where he would think we are least likely to be," Esther said.
"Good plan, Kol and I are on our way to New Orleans. We have a theory that Klaus and Caroline may be there," Bonnie said. "Here, I am going to give the phone to Kol."
"Mother," Kol said.
"Kol, it's so good to hear your voice son," Esther said.
"Same here, mother," Kol said. "I will kill him once we are all together."
"I know son, this time he won't ever be coming back," Esther said.
"He won't. How is my team doing?" Kol asked with a smile.
"They are great, excited about going to on an airplane," Esther said.
"That's great, we'll see you all soon," Kol said.
"We will, good luck children. I am going to discard of this phone now. I had only kept it to get in touch with you. I'll call you once we get home and I can get a new phone," Esther said.
"Alright mother, good-bye," Kol said.
Esther hung up the phone and mentally chanted a spell. The phone started to crumble in her hands. She got up and threw it in the garbage.

On the way to New Orleans
Bonnie and Kol set off to New Orleans in a rented car. Kol got a baseball cap, a fake beard and sunglasses. Bonnie rolled her eyes when she saw his little get up.
"Why do you need that?" Bonnie asked.
"It's necessary. My family has lived there before and if there are any vampires still there, they would recognize me and we don't know where they stand in term of their alliance to Mikael," Kol said. "I also think that if it's Nik and Caroline who are in New Orleans, then Mikael will have extra protection."
"Make sense. But I know for a fact that there are many witches there and they will definitely feel my presence as well as yours," Bonnie said.
"Okay, we need a background story," Kol said.
"Okay, what do you suggest?" Bonnie said. A mischievous grin appeared on Kol's face.
"Leave it to me love, you just follow along," Kol said.

Virginia airport, USA
Esther, Liz and the kids landed in the States. They quickly walked out of the airport with all their belongings. They lined up for a taxi with the five kids.
"You know what this means," Aden said.
"We're in Virginia," Zane said as looked excitedly at the other four.
"We're not very far from Mystic Falls," Arianna said.
"Are you guys ready?" Eliza said. All the kids nodded their head. "Alright, get ready. Grams and Grandmother are not paying much attention."
They saw that Esther and Liz were quietly talking to each other while they waited in line for the taxi. Then a taxi van pulls up in front of a single man who was in front of the line. The man continued to talk on his phone until the taxi driver asked where he was going.
"Mystic Falls," the man said and then went back to his conversation on the phone.
All the kids' eye lit up. That's where they wanted to go, not some hotel that their grandmothers were going to take them to. All of them quietly passed Esther and Liz and got into the back of the van. Neither the taxi driver nor the man noticed them. The driver put the luggage in the back and closed the door and the man got into the front seat still talking on the phone. The van drove off towards Mystic Falls.
Finally it was their turn. Liz and Esther turned to where the kids were standing but they weren't there.
"Aden? Arianna? Zane? Where are you guys?" Liz said.
"Where did they go?" Esther said. "Eliza? Noah?"
They didn't see them anywhere. They worriedly looked at each other as they moved out of the line. How could they be so careless? Where could they have gone?
"Excuse, are you looking for those children who were beside you?" a lady in the lineup said.
"Yes! Have you seen them?" Liz said.
"Yes, I didn't know they were with you but they left in that van," she said.
"Van?" Esther said.
"Let me go ask the attendant there," Liz said. Liz and Esther asked the attendant asked where the van that was before their taxi was going.
"To Mystic Falls I think," the attendent replied.

New Orleans
Bonnie and Kol arrived in the French Quarter. Bonnie looked around at the vibrant city. It made her smile. There was so much history and culture here; she could feel it.
"You can sense it already," Kol said knowingly. Bonnie smiled and nodded. She wanted to just run around the place and go to every store and restaurant. It felt amazing just to be in that kind of atmosphere.
"Come on darling, we need a place to stay. And one more thing," he came close to her that their faces were only a mere centimeter apart and whispered. "Don't do any kind of magic here." Bonnie nodded. Kol put his hand on the small of her back and led her to the nearby hotel. Once they were at the check-in, the lady behind the desk got up.
"Welcome to the French Quarter. Can I help you?" she said.
"Yes, my wife and I would like a suite," Kol said. Bonnie's eyes widened but then she played along and smiled at the receptionist.
"This hotel is only for VIP guests," she said.
"We are VIP guests love," Kol said as he pulled Bonnie closer to him. "Please make sure there's some blood for me in the room," he whispered and then winked. The receptionist smiled and nodded her head but then she looked at Bonnie.
"But she's human," the receptionist said.
"Not quite love. Why would a vampire like me marry a mere human? My wife here is a powerful Bennett witch," Kol said. The receptionist's eyes widened.
"Okay then, here are your keys to room 314 and please make sure to sign in with Marcel for you. Also, just a heads up, witches are not allowed to do magic in the quarter," she said looking at Bonnie.
"Thank-you love," Kol said as he took Bonnie's hand and walked to the elevator. "Damn it!" he said once they were in the elevator.
"What happened?" Bonnie said.
"Marcel," Kol said. "He'll recognize me right away. I didn't know that bastard was still alive."
"Who is he?" Bonnie said.
"He's like Nik's adopted son. Nik raised him like he was his own way back in the day," Kol said. "We thought he died when Mikael came after us but he's still here running this city like a king."
"What should we do?" Bonnie said.
"Gear up love, we have an eventful day in front of us," Kol said as the elevator stop on the third floor.

Mystic Falls
It had felt like they had been sitting in the van for hours when it finally stopped in front of what looked like a restaurant. They were tired, hungry and annoyed by the man's conversation with his girlfriend which still had not ended. They wouldn't have known if the annoyed taxi driver didn't ask him to hang up.
When they saw that they coast was clear, all five got out of the van and stood on the sidewalk looking up at the sign.
"Mystic Grill," Aden read out loud.
"I don't want to go in there," Eliza said. "It looks like a place for older people."
"That's the whole point, what if our parents are in there," Zane said. The kids decided to take a peek inside but it was quite empty. There were a few people sitting at the bar and a couple at a table but that was it. There was no sign of their parents.
"They are not there," Eliza said.
"What do we do now?" Zane said.
"I say we look around," Noah said. Before anyone could say anything or go anywhere, Arianna walked into the Grill and sat down at a table.
"Arianna what are you doing?" Zane said as he walked up to her.
"I'm hungry and I want something to eat," Arianna said. "I suggest you guys do the same. I feel like we will have to do a lot of walking around."
All of them sat down at the table. The waitress came by.
"Hi what can I get you guys? Are you guys alone?" she said.
"Well for now. Our parents are shopping at the moment and we were hungry so they brought us here and said that they will come by as soon as they pay," Aden lied. The waitress seemed to believe them. It seemed like it was normal in this small town let kids by themselves.
"Okay then, what would you like?" the waitress asked.
"We would like three cheeseburgers with fries on the side, one cheese quesadilla with sour cream and salsa sauce on the side and a small cheese pizza," Aden said.
"Alright, anything to drink?" the waitress asked impressed with how they had ordered so specifically.
"Yes, a coke for me," Aden said.
"Me too," Zane said.
"Chocolate shake for the both of us," Arianna said looking at Eliza.
"I'll take a mango raspberry smoothie," Noah said. The waitress nodded and left.
"How are we going to pay for this?" Eliza whispered.
"Watch and learn baby sister," Zane said.
They finally got all their food. Aden, Zane and Eliza took their cheeseburgers, Arianna took her cheese pizza and Noah ate his Quesadilla. It was a good thing that Grams had made all this food at home before or they wouldn't know how to order. They finished their food and the waitress came back.
"Are your parents coming back anytime?" she asked.
"Oh they will come soon. They are going to have to eat as well," Zane said. "I think they are taking a little too long with shopping. Is it okay if we leave you their names? You can bill them when they come here."
"Sure, do they come here often," the waitress asked. She seemed unsure about what to do. They were such adorable children.
"Oh yes, their names are Klaus and Caroline Mikaelson," Zane said. "My mom has blonde hair and green eyes. My dad has sandy blonde hair like me."
"Our parents' names are Stefan and Rebekah Salvatore," Aden said. "My mom also has blonde hair like me and my dad has brown hair like my sister."
The waitress smiled and nodded and jotted the names down quickly. She quickly walked off towards the back of the restaurant.
"Come on, let's go before she comes back," Aden said. All five quickly ran out the front door.
The waitress walked to the back office. Her boss was sitting at his desk looking over accounts.
"Mr. Donavan," she said. He looked up at her with his blue eyes.
"Yes, Michelle and please call me Matt," he said.
"Yes, Mr. Don…Matt," she said. "There are these kids outside who ordered food and ate. They said that their parents will come and pay later," Michelle said.
"That's fine," Matt said. It was a small town and people did that all the time.
"I got their parents' names too," Michelle said as she put they bill on his desk.
"Thanks, Michelle," Matt said.
"You're welcome," Michelle said and then walked out.
Matt took a quick glance at the bill when his eyes caught something. 'Klaus and Caroline Mikaelson' and 'Stefan and Rebekah Salvatore'? Was he dreaming? He picked up the bill; it actually did say their names. He quickly got up and ran out of his office and into the restaurant.
"Michelle," he called.
"Yes," Michelle came right away.
"Where are these kids?" Matt asked.
"They were sitting at table number twelve," Michelle said. "But they already left."
"How old were they," Matt asked.
"They looked anywhere from six to eight years old," Michelle said. "They even described their parents'. They said that both of their moms had blonde hair."
"Thanks Michelle," Matt said before Michelle could finish. He then grabbed his jacket and walked out of the grill. He had to find them. His friends' kids were alive and well. Could it be that his friends were also back in town? He had to find out.

New Orleans
Once they were in their room Kol took off his beard, sunglasses and hat.
"There's no point for all of this," Kol said. "Marcel probably already knows that we are here."
"How?" Bonnie said.
"That receptionist already notified him about the new vampire and his wife, who happens to be a witch, are in town," Kol said. "Now that we know that witches are not allowed to do magic in the quarter, I'm assuming that the relationship between the witches and vampires isn't so great. They'll be curious about us."
"Okay, what can I do? We need to do a locator spell," Bonnie said. Kol walked up to her so he was only a mere inch away.
"I know, just make sure you have a lot of energy and are ready to do powerful magic when needed," Kol whispered. Bonnie nodded and swallowed. She had not felt this way for a while. She looked up at Kol and his chocolate brown eyes seemed to melt her from the inside. What was happening to her? She had never felt like this before.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Kol zoomed to the door and opened it. There were two vampires standing on the other side.
"We hear you two are new in town," the first one said. "You'll have to come with us and see Marcel."
"Very well, ready love," Kol looked at Bonnie.
"Yes, let's go meet Marcel," Bonnie said.
There were escorted in a car to a large mansion with an 'M' on the front gate. The gates opened and they drove in. The vampire who was driving parked in front of the main door.
"We're here," the second vampire said as they got out of the car. As soon as they stepped into the central hall, they were surrounded with vampires.
"Well, well, well, look who we have here," Marcel said as he walked down there stairs. "Kol Mikaelson, it's been too long."
"Marcel, I have to say you look good. Especially, because you are alive," Kol said.
"Well I managed to do something for myself when your Daddy arrived here," Marcel said as he walked towards them. He looked Bonnie up and down. "Ah, this must be your wife. The Bennett witch," Marcel took her hand and kissed it. "It's a pleasure to meet you."
"Same here," Bonnie greeted.
"Kol, I didn't know you were the type to get married. I must say I am surprised, more so, shocked," Marcel said.
"Well you never know where life tends to take us," Kol said. "But I am here for more pressing matters. Where is Nik?"
"Klaus? I haven't seen him since the last time all you Mikaelsons were here," Marcel said. Kol took a step towards him and grabbed him by the neck. He zoomed towards the wall pinning Marcel there. All the vampires start towards them when Kol called Bonnie. Bonnie raised her arms and every vampire in the room flew back.
"Now, everyone stay where they are otherwise it won't take me long to stick my hand into his chest and pull out his heart," Kol said. No one moved. "Excellent. Now where were we? Right, where's Nik?" Kol said.
"I told you, I don't know," Marcel said.
"Now why should I believe you?" Kol said. "For all I know, you could be working for Mikael."
"I haven't seen Mikael since the last time he was here to hunt you guys down," Marcel said. "How about this, I can offer you help in trying to find him."
Kol loosened his grip from his neck.
"How do you intend to do that?" Kol said.
"I give your wife can do any kind of magic here as long it doesn't harm me or my guys; and I can offer some of my people to help you search for Klaus. I can also ask my witch Davina to help you," Marcel said.
"How can I trust you?" Kol said. "The next moment you could be handing us over to Mikael."
"Look I don't know what I can do so you would trust me but I don't have anything against you guys. You have my word that I am not doing anything for Mikael. If I betray you, you can pull my heart right out of my chest," Marcel said.
Kol let him go.
"Very well, let me remind you that if you betray us in anyway, we will kill you all," Kol said. "Bonnie could you please do that locator spell now."
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"Where to now?" Arianna said. "We've practically seen the whole town."
"How would you know, we've never been here," Zane said.
They walked down a long path when they came across a huge iron gate with the letter 'M' on it. They slowly pushed open the gate and walked up wide concrete pathways that lead to a big mansion. It was quite a walk to the main doors. The admired the flowers in the garden. They seemed wild like no one had taken care of them for a long time. The field on either side extended all the way to the forest grounds.
"Wow! This place is amazing!" Eliza said. "I've never seen a house like this before. I mean even our house in Scotland is not as big as this one." Everyone agreed.
They all walked around the magnificent water fountain that was in front of the main doors. It was a beautiful fountain but there was no water in it. They walked up the steps to the grand chestnuts doors.
"Are you sure we should be here?" Arianna said. She was unsure of this place. It was kind of far from the main town and they had not seen a single person around here.
"What if our parents are here?" Noah said. Everyone looked at each other and there was a silent agreement about going in.
Aden who was the tallest pulled on the handle but it was locked.
"Should we ring the door bell?" Zane suggested. Eliza went ahead and pressed the door bell. They waited and waited but no one came to the door.
"I guess no one lives here," Arianna said. They were all starting to walk away when Noah saw something.
"Hey you guys wait," Noah said. All of them rushed back to him.
"What is it Noah?" Zane asked.
"Look," Noah pointed at letters on the edge of the door. It was like a puzzle piece, letters would be able to fit into them.
"What do you think 'Z', 'E', 'N' means?" Arianna said. All of them stared at the letters for a moment.
"Wait a minute," Eliza said as she took out her necklace that had an 'E' on it. "Look at this," she placed the 'E' in the door edge where the 'E' was marked. Zane and Noah quickly followed. As all the letters were locked in the door unlocked. Eliza, Noah and Zane took their necklaces back and walked into the house. The front hall was lined with tiles with a chandelier up top. The house looked like it had not been cleaned for quite some time.
"This place is disgusting," Eliza said as she wiped her finger on the round table. "It has not been cleaned for a long time." They all walked further in and found their way to the dining room where there was a large table that could seat twenty people at once. They went into the next room when they heard someone come in. They turned around to find a man standing in front of them. He had blond hair and blue eyes. He had a broad built and was wearing an army green jacket. He looked kind and gave a warm smile.
"You are not supposed to be here," he said.
"Is this your house?" Aden asked.
"No," he said.
"Who are you?" Arianna said.
"My name is Matt, Matt Donavan," he said with a smile.
"Hi Matt, I'm Aden, this is Arianna, my sister. Zane, Eliza and Noah are my cousins," Aden said.
"Nice to meet you all," Matt said. He knew exactly who they were. He could tell by their features who their parents were.
"Matt do you know who lives here," Zane asked. Before Matt could say anything, Eliza cut in,
"Would you give us a tour around the house?" Eliza said.
"Sure," Matt said. Next they all walked into the family room. It was very dusty and there were webs everywhere but they could tell it was a bright place to be. It was so cozy. There something caught Zane's eye.
"You guys look!" Zane said as he pointed at a small dusty frame.
"It's Mom and Dad!" Eliza said.
"And the babies must be us," Noah said. "Where could they be?"
Matt realized that the kids were looking for their parents which had brought them here. But it wasn't safe. They hybrid who stayed here should be back shortly.
"Hey you guys, I know what this means to you but we have to get out of here. The guy who stays here will be back soon and we don't want to cross paths with him," Matt said.
The children sadly nodded as Matt ushered them to the back door. When they heard someone walk in through the front door. Arianna and Noah managed to slip out but Zane, Aden and Eliza were still inside with Matt. Someone zooms into the room and stands in front of them. They all freeze. It was a tall man with big biceps. The kids looked at Matt and then the hybrid. This hybrid seemed to tower over them.
"What are you doing here?" the hybrid asked.
"Oh nothing much Mark, they just wanted to see the big house from the inside," Matt said. He knew him because Mark would come to the grill every night for drinks. The hybrid eyed them carefully.
"Who are these kids?" Mark asked.
"Oh, these are my kids," Matt said.
"Yah, we're his kids," Zane, Aden and Eliza said together.
"Your kids? I thought your wife just had a baby girl," Mark said.
"Yes, she did," Matt said. "These are my other kids. They came to visit me from Tennessee. See we all have blonde hair."
"These kids are older though and how come I've never seen them before," Mark said.
"Long story bro, I went for state championships in high school couple years back. I met this girl and I knocked her up," Matt said.
"Yah, he knocked her up," all three repeated.
"What does knocked-up mean?" Zane whispered to Aden.
"Three?" Mark said.
"Triplets. I know what luck," Matt said as he tried to laugh it off. "Come on you guys, let's get going."
"You guys can go this time but make sure not to come here again," the hybrid said. Matt nodded and started to take the kids to the back door.
"But this is our home," Eliza let it slip.
From the look on the hybrid's face, Matt could tell that they were caught.
"Run!" he yells at the kids. Zane, Eliza and Aden run out the back door in full supernatural speed. Matt tries to stop the hybrid. The hybrid snapped Matt's neck and also ran out the door.
Arianna and Noah heard Matt's yell for them to run. They quickly took off knowing that their siblings will soon join them. Arianna and Noah arrived in the woods and waited for the other three. Soon Zane, Aden and Eliza are there.
"This is an emergency, we need to run," Aden said. He and Arianna took off in full supernatural speed. Eliza, Zane and Noah rapidly transformed into their wolf forms and followed.
The five ran as fast as they could weaving through the forest. They could hear the hybrids behind them which just made them run faster. Soon the hybrid started to slow down and it seemed like he went a different way. The five of them continued to run. They needed to get away as far as possible. Now the panic was starting to overpower the curiosity. They needed to find their Grandmother and Grams. All of a sudden, Aden and Arianna ran into someone and land on their behinds. They look up at a familiar face. A face they had seen in their parent's wedding album and other family photos.
"Uncle Elijah?" Aden said out loud. Elijah looked at the two young faces in front of him with curiosity. He looked at the girl and saw Rebekah's eyes staring back at him. He realized right away that they were his niece and nephew. They were Rebekah's twins.
"Aden? Arianna?" Elijah knelt down on one knee as he looked at the two. He took both into his arms and embraced them tightly. The last he had seen them, they were little babies in diapers crawling around. He picked up both of them in each arm and stood up. The twins smiled at him. The panic was subsiding now that they were with their uncle.
Elijah continued to look at the two of them when the hybrid caught up to them. He looked at Elijah with wide eyes. From his face he looked shocked to see Elijah in front of him.
"How did you get out?" the hybrid said. "Hand over the kids."
"I don't think so," Elijah said. Just as the hybrid was about to charge Elijah, he fell to the ground with a hole in his back. Behind him was a beautiful lady with curly brown hair.
"He's right you know," she smiled as she threw the heart back at the dead hybrid and threw a lighter at him. The body went up in flames.
"Sorry you had to see that," she said.
"It's okay," Arianna and Aden said together.
"He was the bad guys," Aden said.
"That he was," she said.
"Are you Aunt Elena?" Arianna asked. Katherine smiled.
"No sweetheart, this is your Aunt Katarina," Elijah said.
"Oh you mean Aunt Katherine?" Arianna said.
"That's okay with me," Katherine said.
"Okay, how about we get you out of here and then you can tell us how you got here," Elijah said. He was about to step forwards.
"Wait, we can't leave without them," Aden said.
"Without who?" Katherine asked.
"The others," Aden said. "Zane, Eliza Noah! Come out you guys!" Aden said.
Slowly, a grey, blonde and white wolf come out from behind the trees. They were ready to attack if anything went wrong but Aden had called them out. Elijah looked at the three small pups in front of him with tears in his eyes.
Well what do you think? Please leave me a review with your thoughts. I know there wasn't any Klaroline in here, but they will be in the next chapter.
