Chapter 002
Not the Vampire I Knew
Sunday, December 05, 2010, around 2:00 p.m.
Silas' Tomb
I'm sitting next to Caroline's prone form in the Gilbert's living room, and then the next second, I'm standing inside what appears to be a tunnel of some sort. I spot Elena and her friends and follow them further into the ground. While I watch them lower themselves into a well, I sigh, and then a moment later I'm at the bottom of the well looking up at them coming down the rope. I don't see Jeremy or my grandbaby anywhere in sight.
When Elena and Stefan arrive at Silas' tomb, they are already too late. A man is standing over a dead Silas with my granddaughter lying in a crumpled heap a few feet away.
'Oh, baby girl. You never should have gone looking for The Cure, but you just wouldn't listen. I suppose I should be proud, though, because your stubbornness was completely born of your loyalty to your friends.'
I'm brought out of my thoughts when the man standing over my granddaughter's body looks at Elena and Stefan and tells them in a heavy Irish accent, "My purpose is complete. Silas woke, I fed him The Cure, and then I killed him. The threat The First Immortal posed to the world is no more."
The hunter takes the stake he used on Silas out of the ancient man's desiccated body and rams the lovingly carved piece of wood into his own chest before crumpling to the floor beside my granddaughter's body. Stefan can already tell my baby girl is dead, but he still walks to her body and bends down to check for a pulse he doesn't find while Elena turns to tend to her brother who is unconscious but still very alive if the sound of his strong and steady heartbeat in Stefan's ears is any indication.
After Jeremy wakes up, he and his sister cry over my precious girl's body and then despite Stefan advising that they leave my baby here, his two companions veto his vote and because he still hopes to win back Elena's love he reluctantly agrees to carry my granddaughter's body out of the cave.
Stefan thinks with a bit of attitude, 'Never mind how we're going to explain that she's now dead,' still, he follows Elena and her brother out of the chamber and then back up out of the well.
Stefan carries Bonnie all the way back to the boat they took here while he avoids looking at anyone but especially Rebekah, and then when they return to the mainland, he carries Bonnie to the Camaro while Rebekah goes her own way.
Damon drives Elena, Jeremy, and Stefan to the Gilbert's house where the two teens hurry inside hoping to find Niklaus still trapped inside, but Damon and Stefan both already knew Bonnie's death freed the original. Stefan's green eyes widen, and he gasps for a single breath he doesn't really need when his line of sight lands on Caroline's desiccated corpse lying on one of the couches. Despite having heard Elena's conversation with Niklaus earlier, he was still holding out some hope that the original was lying about Caroline's death.
Elena is sitting across from Caroline's body rocking herself while she cries in her brother's arms before Damon takes control of the situation and says, "Okay, so Stefan carry Vampire Barbie out to my car. We need to bury Bonnie, Caroline, and Kol, the sooner, the better. You can bury them, and I'll stay with Elena and Jeremy until you come back."
Damon looks at his brother hard for a minute, and a light bulb goes off in Stefan's head. Damon is considering using The Sire Bond to help Elena deal with all this tragedy. However, he doesn't want his brother present for it, so when Damon hands Stefan his keys he nods and takes them before he picks up Caroline's body doing his damnedest to ignore Elena's increasing tears while he carries her best friend out to the car.
Stefan puts Caroline in the trunk with my granddaughter's body and then goes back and get Kol's burnt corpse placing it in the trunk too and then getting into the driver's seat he stops and considers 'Where the hell should I bury the Mayor's and the Sheriff's daughters where they won't be found?'
He decides he needs to bury them somewhere where there is almost no foot traffic and where it'll be less likely that anyone will dig them up. After thinking for a few minutes, he figures the best place for them is in the woods behind the boarding house, so he drives there.
When we arrive, he takes first Kol, then Bonnie, and then Caroline out of the trunk and carries them to the woods after retrieving a shovel from the shed near the garden. Then he digs for twenty minutes taking his time while he contemplates all that has happened recently.
'We were so close to getting The Cure for Elena, but the chance slipped through our fingers without any of us even knowing until it was too late.' He wonders, 'Are Rebekah and Damon right? Can I not love a vampire Elena?'
Pausing he stands up straight and then admits to himself, 'As much as I'm loathed to admit it, they're probably right. I'm in love with human Elena. And her being a vampire fundamentally changes who she is in ways I can't ignore.' He had hoped he could, but he's beginning to see that he can't turn a blind eye to those, glaringly obvious to him, differences.
When the first hole is big enough Stefan places Kol's charred body inside and then covers him up before digging another hole and then setting Bonnie inside it and then covering the last member of my line up with the dirt. He digs the hole for Caroline next and then leans down picking her up, and that is the last thing he knows because Kol shoves hard and breaks through Stefan's rather weak mental defenses taking over his body with only a little more effort than it took to take over Caroline's dead body.
Kol unceremoniously drops Caroline's body into her grave. Because he wants to keep her death a secret at least for now so that he can have time to play with his chosen toys and mess up their lives as much as possible he covers her body up with the dirt piled up beside her grave.
Returning the shovel to its resting place in the garden shed he then drives Damon's car back to the Gilbert's house. When he arrives instead of going inside, he leaves the keys in the ignition and gets out of the car before walking towards the center of town at a slightly faster than human pace.
When traffic picks up, Kol slows to a pace more suitable to humans and then sets about finding his future target.
Kol decides his best course is to head to The Grill and see who's available for a little fun before a spot of violence. When he arrives, he strides to the bar and compels the Bartender, "I'm obviously over 21 so you will give me a generous portion of Whiskey on the Rocks, on the house, and then you will leave me be until I motion you back over."
The man nods and repeats what Kol said and then puts down the original's full glass in front of him. Picking it up, he turns to face the rest of the room, and while he lifts his glass to his lips, he spots two girls, one blonde and one brunette, who are probably about 18 years old. He thinks, 'They'll do nicely.'
He grins his borrowed smile at them when they glance at him, and they both smile back. Turning to the bartender he waves the man back over and then compels him, "Whatever the girl in the red top and the one in the silver dress are drinking send them one on me, and by 'on me' I mean on the house but tell them it's from me."
Kol decides they must, in fact, both be over 21 and not 18 like he initially thought because after the bartender repeats the compulsion to him the man pours their rum and cokes before handing them to the waiter and telling him who to give them to. When the teenager hands the glasses to the girls, he says the drinks are from Kol so when they look at him, he smiles again and raises his own drink towards them. They both smile back and raise their glasses before taking a sip.
Waiting a moment, he then saunters over to their table before sitting down across from them. He grins at them when they smile at him and tells them, "I'm K—Stefan."
Frowning he thinks, 'Oops, I almost slipped up there, better keep an eye on that.'
The dark-haired girl in the red top smiles clearly missing his stutter and tells him, "My name is Courtney."
He barely pays attention to 'miss red top's' name while he takes a sip then tells the pretty raven-haired Asian girl with the almond-shaped chestnut colored eyes, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Darling."
While he marvels at how weird his usual speech patterns sound coming out in a slightly southern accent, he turns and looks at Courtney's blonde friend and asks, "And who might you be, Darling?"
The flaxen-haired girl in the shimmering silver dress, who is wholly unaware of the danger she and her friend are truly in, smiles widely and says, "I'm Amy."
Kol has already forgotten Courtney's name, instead referring to her as 'the red-shirted girl' in his head. Raising his glass to the smiling Amy, he tells her, "A pleasure."
Amy has sky-blue eyes with creamy porcelain skin which Kol hopes he'll get to taste before the night is over. Unaware of his thoughts she nods and looks the body snatcher up and down for a minute before lowering her voice and asking, "We don't usually do this, but do you want to get out of here?"
He smiles and thinks, 'So-called respectable women these days are much easier to get into bed than they used to be, and I don't even have to compel them to leave with me.' Still smiling he says, "Lead the way, Darling."
Both women down their drinks and Amy then stands before taking Kol's hand and pulling him to his feet. He finishes his own drink a little slower than the women did, and then he follows the two young ladies out of the bar allowing Amy to lead him to her car. I think myself into the back seat of the vehicle while Kol gets into the passenger seat. He watches her in her sparkling dress while she quickly gets into the driver's seat and starts the car before Courtney in her red blouse and black pencil skirt gets into the back seat.
Ten minutes later we arrive at an apartment building. After getting out of the car, Kol allows Amy to retake his hand and lead him into the building, which has security cameras trained on the door. He smiles widely at both cameras and then follows the two girls up three flights of stairs.
Amy keeps wiping her sweaty hands on the shiny material of her silver dress, and she's shaking a bit, so she drops her keys while she's trying to open her front door.
Kol smiles to himself and bends down and picks them up telling her, "Allow me." She just nods, so he unlocks the door and pushes it open. The two women both walk into the modest apartment before Kol smiles and asks, "Are you going to invite me in, Darling?"
Smiling shyly Amy brushes some of her shoulder-length blonde curls behind her ear and says with a flirty smile, "Please come in."
He thinks, 'Too easy.' Still, he grins and follows her inside the slightly small apartment. Courtney asks, "Do you want something to drink?"
Smiling his trademark lopsided boyish grin, although it feels weird on Stefan's face, Kol tells both women, "In a bit perhaps. Right now I want other things," and although we both know that Courtney and Amy completely understand what other things he wants we also know neither young woman has a clue that she and her friend will be the vampire's liquid refreshment when the night is through.
Kol walks to Amy who is smiling shyly and brushes his hand across her creamy soft cheek before sliding his hand into her curly blonde hair and wrapping it around his hand using his grip to tilt her head back so he can steal a brutal kiss. While their tongues clash her arms come up around his shoulders, and she holds on tight.
When Courtney moves to walk past the pair, he reaches out with his free hand and grabs her arm pulling her to him before leaning over and stealing a kiss from her too.
While he kisses Courtney senseless, he uses his free hand to unbutton her crimson blouse and then releases his hold on Amy to slide her friend's silky blood-red shirt off her shoulders to pool on the floor at her feet.
Amy uses her freedom from Kol's grip to reach behind herself and unzip her sparkly silver dress, which slides down her body to puddle at her feet too.
Not to be outdone Courtney slides her black pencil skirt down her hips and then steps out of it. The original pulls back from the kiss and looks each of them over in their skimpy bras and panties. One thing he loves about this new century is the undergarments women have taken to wearing these days. While he's only seen the garments in stores and on mannequins up to this point, he's admired them when he's walked past the Victoria's Secret shop in the mall.
He thinks, 'Despite how attractive I've thought they were in the past, the garments are much more appealing on live girls than those plastic dolls in the store windows.'
Courtney's bra and panties are blood-red lace to match her top and shows little peaks of pinkish brown nipple through the holes in the lace. Amy's underwear and bra, on the other hand, are silver satin with a black lace overlay. They both look quite fetching if he does say so, but he thinks they should move these proceedings somewhere more comfortable, so Kol smiles what he hopes is Stefan's version of a seductive smile and asks, "Perhaps there is a more suitable location for us to continue our fun?"
Amy nods and retakes his hand leading him across her living room to a door, which leads to her modest bedroom. He thinks, 'At least she has a big bed.' When she turns back to face Kol in Stefan's body she walks backward until her knees hit the edge of the bed then he walks to her and pushes her shoulders causing her to fall and land on the bed with a giggle. He pulls off his borrowed shirt and then climbs on the bed kissing up her bare legs until he reaches her panties.
There is no need to rush and quite frankly this is the first time he's had sex since his wife died in 1702 so he has no desire to hurry. He takes his time on his way up her legs, and when he reaches the juncture of her thighs, he kisses Amy's mound through the fabric and then moves his lips farther up to kiss her stomach.
When he reaches her bra, he kisses and licks the tops of her breasts before reaching under her and unsnapping the catch with one hand. He chuckles to himself and thinks, 'Hmm, much easier to take off than the old garments.'
When he pulls the fabric off her, he feels lips begin kissing his shoulder and moving along the expanse of his back to his other shoulder. Reaching behind himself he pulls Courtney around in front of him before removing her brassiere with one hand too.
Kol is smiling widely and thinks, 'I love these garments, so much easier to remove than petticoats and corsets,' though don't get him wrong, he also thinks that corsets have their own appeal but, 'I like the ease with which I can access a woman's more entertaining bits in this day and age.'
While one hand fondles Amy's breasts his lips descend on her friend's chest. He kisses the top of each mound and then licks and kisses the globes before reaching her nipples and pulling first one into his mouth with a hard suck and then the other. Then he switches girls and uses his hands on Courtney while his lips explore Amy's porcelain skin. A few minutes later, he switches back and then repeats it a few times.
I want to look away or go back into the living room and leave Kol to his deadly fun, but something has me frozen in place. I am entirely unable to turn my gaze away from the sight of Kol and the two girls on the bed.
The women thread their hands through his hair while he mouths each of their breasts and they claw at his shoulders with their free hands when he pinches and twists their nipples with his fingers. His pinching and twisting become a little harder with each passing second, and then he bites with flat teeth on a nipple causing the girl he's suckling to shriek but fortunately for him he smells both of their arousals getting stronger with each hard twist, pull, and bite.
Traveling his kisses up to Amy's soft pink mouth he then looks into her sky-blue eyes compelling her, "You will not scream or try to run away though feel free to fight back." Kol turns to look at Courtney lying beside her friend with wide chocolate eyes and tells her the same thing.
After both girls' repeat his words back to him Kol allows his vampire face to emerge, which causes them both to gasp before he leans down to Amy's chest and bites taking a small sip and smiling when she cries out in slight pain before he then moves an inch over and bites and then takes another small sip.
Thirty minutes later, bites cover all over both women's torsos, arms, and legs, and their blood and surprisingly their cum is covering both girls' and Kol's bodies in random smears.
I still can't force myself to look away, so I'm helpless to do anything but watch when Kol pulls back and stands for a moment before unzipping and dropping his pants. He reaches down and grips himself before thinking, 'Hmm, not the quality of equipment I had the last time I had sex some 300 years ago, but I suppose it'll suffice for the time being.' Despite the fate I know awaits these two innocent women, I can't help but laugh at Kol's disappointed thoughts.
He crawls back onto the bed and lays on top of Amy settling his legs between hers. He uses his hand to guide his host's, smaller than he would like, manhood to the girl's entrance before pushing in and sighing. Stefan's equipment may be smaller than Kol's, but he figures at least it still feels almost as good as he remembers.
The original pulls back and then pushes in while he leans to the side and bites Courtney on her jugular causing her blood to shoot all over him before he gets his mouth over the wound and feeds to his fill, or at least until she has no more blood left to give.
She cums once more just before he feels her life slip away. I try to close my eyes when she breathes her last breath, but not even that will work. Something or someone wants me to see every second of Kol's revenge.
He focuses on pounding into Amy and then just as he's about to cum, much sooner than he remembers being normal for him, he bites her porcelain skin, sinking his canines into her jugular sending her over the edge and even more blood spraying all over the two of them. He lets the blood spurt over himself a few times so that when Stefan comes back into his body, there will be no denying what Kol's done in the younger vampire's body then Kol latches on to Amy's wound and drains her dry as well. He closes his borrowed green eyes and pounds through his, in his opinion, less than stellar orgasm and then pulls out before rubbing himself all over the bloody messes that are the two girls he just fucked to death.
This Kol is not the vampire I knew while he was daggered and on The Otherside. This Kol is hellbent on revenge, so his kind, gentle, and repentant personality that was so prevalent when we became friends shortly after I died is practically nonexistent right now. I wipe away a tear at that thought.
