Hayley came out of her room and walked to the study. Elijah was sitting at his desk looking down at something. Hayley walked to him and saw that he was looking at the bracelet.

Elijah looked up at Hayley and put the bracelet down. He put his hands on the desk and leaned back on his chair. Hayley walked to the desk and asked him with a smile "what is wrong?"

Elijah stared at her and said "nothing"

"There is something Elijah so tell me" Hayley said again

"Why?" Elijah asked her

"What do you mean why?" Hayley asked him in confusion

"Why did you go with him?" Elijah asked again

Hayley noticed the coldness in his voice and said in as much of a calm and casual voice as he could muster up "It was just the two of us in the morning so we left together. You were sleeping"

Elijah suddenly got out of his seat and came to her in a vamp speed and said angrily "I was sleeping Hayley not dead. You could have woken me up"

Hayley stepped back when she saw the anger on his face and said "what is wrong? Why are you so angry?"

"Hayley…" he stopped and then looked down and looked up. He looked into her eyes and then asked her in a very serious tone "Are you falling for him?"

"What?" Hayley asked in a loud voice.

"Are you crazy? I will never ever fall for him" Hayley said

"Stefan I was serious about Elena being gone from my house. I don't care what Elijah said but I want her gone. If need be I will tell Elijah what is her motive for staying and then she will not walk out of this house on her two feet. So make sure she is gone by tomorrow" Klaus said to Stefan as they entered the compound.

Stefan looked at him and nodded. He said "I will talk to them about leaving". He then went upstairs to his room whereas Klaus went towards the study. His steps haltered just for a second when he heard her voice "why would you think that? Just because we went out together that I will fall for him"

He couldn't bear to hear any more so he entered the study and ignoring the twinge of annoyance he felt seeing them standing so close to each other he went to them and said to her "I need that bracelet"

Hayley looked at Elijah who looked towards his desk. Klaus went across them and picked up the bracelet and left them standing there without a word.

Hayley turned to Elijah and said in a serious tone "If you don't trust me then what are we doing together"

Elijah said with frustration "that is the thing we are barely together. You don't let me touch you. We have not even…"

Hayley said to him "Elijah I told you to wait just a couple of more weeks"

"And I see that you are changing. The more time you spend with him the more you are changing" Elijah held her by her upper arms and continued in frustration.

Hearing that made her eyes go cold and she gently pried herself free of him and said "hmm. Thanks for your undying support"

She then turned and left the room not even stopping when she heard him call her name "Hayley"

Klaus was pacing his room angrily. He had overheard their conversation. He picked up the brush and started to paint but he couldn't so he left the room and went to Caroline's room. He knocked at the door and then without waiting for a reply he entered. Caroline was lying down on her bed. She jumped up seeing him. Klaus whooshed to her and pinned her against the wall and started kissing her passionately. He suddenly felt very warm when he felt her kissing him back too. His hand moved up her dress on her thigh as he lifted her leg up. His lips moved to her neck when suddenly he heard "Caroli…"

Klaus froze at the spot and groaned. He turned and saw a stunned Elena standing there.

Elena said with cheeks turning read "Oh I am sorry"

She was about to turn when Klaus said in an undertone to Caroline "it is okay". He let her go and then left the room brushing Elena aside.

Hayley was coming out of her room when she saw him leaving Caroline's room across the corridors across each other's rooms. Their eyes met across the corridors just for a second and then Klaus left.

Hayley stood there watching him leave the compound.

Klaus sat in his car and went to Marcel's place. Marcel was talking to Davina when he entered his warehouse. Davina got up suddenly when she saw him coming. Marcel stood up too and stood in front of her. Klaus laughed when he saw Davina and said to her sarcastically "so you come running to him when you felt a bit scared of us"

Davina moved marcel aside and said to Klaus "NO, I just missed him. He is the only family I have left"

"And what about Cami and poor old Josh" Klaus asked sarcastically.

Marcel narrowed his eyes at Klaus. He knew Klaus too well. From the looks of it he was looking to be in a very bad mood so he turned to Davina and was about to say something when she said "I don't understand how come you two have become such good friends all of a sudden. The way I remember it last time Marcel you were trying to get his blood for your vampire friends who ultimately died because of him"

Marcel closed his mouth and turned to Klaus in surprise.

Klaus felt as if someone punched him in his stomach. That was what he was afraid of – the compulsion wearing off or someone like Davina removing it. He calmed himself down and thought and then said "and I gave it to him. He has vials of my blood in case if something like that happens again"

Marcel said "Oh that is your blood. I have been wondering whose blood that was"

"What do you mean you have been wondering?" Davina asked

"Nothing D don't worry. There were some vials of blood in my room and I have been scratching my brains out whose blood was that but now that I know I am glad that was yours mate" He said and walked to Klaus and hugged him.

Klaus looked at Davina from above Marcel's shoulder. She looked lost to him so he said "what are you doing here Davina?"

Klaus stepped back and then turned to leave when marcel asked him "where are you going mate?"

"I came to talk but seeing that you are busy I will leave you alone. By the way Davina have you told Marcel that you have brought my father back and that my mother is back too?" Klaus stopped while turning and said to Davina

Marcel spun around to face the ash white Davina and asked her "D. what is Klaus saying?"

"Yes I have brought Mikael back because he is the only person who can kill him" Davina said in an adamant and loud voice making Klaus laugh sarcastically.

"D what have you done?" Marcel asked her in surprise

Klaus looked at Davina and turned to leave but then stopped and said "and don't forget to tell him that he was the one who killed all of his army". He just stayed for a second to gloat on the look of horror on Davina's and Marcel's face and left them.

Klaus went to his car and stood there for a moment. He didn't feel like going to the compound so he sat in the car and pulled it out on the street. Soon he was driving out of the city. He drove for two hours and then took an exit. It was late and he needed gas for the car so he found a gas station and filled up his car. He got into the car and searched for a nearby motel on the gps. He then drove there and compelled his way to a room in the hotel. As soon as his head touched the bed he went to sleep.

The next time when his eyes opened the sun was on its highest point. One look on his wrist watch told him that it was noon. He got up, sat there for a few minutes and then went to the bathroom to take a shower. After the shower he changed into the same clothes and checked himself out.

He sat in his car thinking what he was going to do and then he drove back towards New Orleans. As he entered the city two hours later he stopped at the gas station. He went inside the shop after filling his car up and picked up something when he was pushed aside. He stumbled dropping the things in his hands. He turned slowly and saw two huge biker guys standing there.

One of them said "Get out of the way" He looked at his partner.

His partner showed his teeth and said nothing.

Klaus smiled and then turned away from them. And then before the first biker could put his hand on his shoulder Klaus had spun on the spot and sunk his teeth into his neck. He discarded him and let him fall on the ground when he felt his huge body going limp. Then he turned and felt a jerk when he saw the bullet entering his body. He stared at the gun in the other man's hand and then took deliberate steps towards the man who kept on shooting and when there was no bullet left Klaus jabbed his hand into his chest and took his heart out letting the man lifeless body fall on the ground with a thud.

Klaus turned when he heard a gasp and saw the young girl behind the counter trembling. He whooshed to her and held her by her arm. Ignoring the scream that had escaped from her throat he said "forget about me and what happened here"

He let her go and said with a smile "Now can I have that bag love". The girl looked blank just for a second and then she nodded.

Klaus walked to his car touching the place on his torso where the bullets have made holes. He knew that he needed to take them out because even if they will not kill him, it sure stung. He sat in his car observing that blood was oozing out.

He took a deep breath and drove the car to the compound. As he entered the court yard Elijah asked him "where have you been?"

"Business" he said walking towards the stairs

"Alone?" Elijah asked

He stopped and looked at him and said with exasperation "yes alone Elijah"

Elijah said before he could take another step "I was thinking about that young man who was with Cassy and I think that is Finn"

Klaus winced and sat on the chair "and how did you reach to that conclusion?"

Elijah narrowed his eyes and said "I don't know what but I just feel that vibe from him. Cassy seemed really close to her when I went to see them yesterday"

Klaus got up, took a breath and said "okay then. So add him to the list of people we have to kill"

"You are pretty chill about all of it!" Elijah asked him in surprise.

"What can I do Elijah? You tell me. I can only take out the threats not undo what has been done" Klaus said aggressively and he turned to leave.

"Hayley has been locked in her room since yesterday. I am worried about her" Elijah said

Klaus stopped, smiled and shook his head and then turned to face him "why are you worried about her Elijah?"

Elijah looked at him and said "she is changing. She is becoming more and more aggressive these days. Violent if I may say so"

"and if you keep on going that way at her you will push her away from you Elijah" Klaus said coldly and then he left him standing there bewildered.

He bumped into Hayley who was on the way down and without looking at her he went to his room. Hayley stopped and turned to look at him. She then shook her head and walked down. She walked to Elijah and asked him "Do you want to take a shot at using the stake on your parents?"

Elijah looked at her without answering and then said "it is worth a try. Right now?"

"Yes" Hayley said with a smile.

"Okay let me get that stake from Niklaus" Elijah said looking at her.

Hayley nodded and then looked down and then she saw the blood on her white shirt. She looked at it. Following her gaze Elijah looked down and held her by her arms. He asked her with concern "Are you hurt?"

"No. I am not. I don't think it is mine…" Hayley said slowly and then she looked upwards to the stair and ran upstairs.
