I was woken up by Klaus who was standing in the room, growling at another girl. She was blond and she was searching through my things. I got up and snatched my bag from her.

"Rebekah, leave the girl alone. If you want I can send for Stefan Salvatore." She turned around and smiled.

"Yes Nik. Do that and I WON'T kill this girl." I was snatched off the bed and hid behind Klaus. Nik? Where does that fit in his name? I peeked out but he snarled and backed me into the bathroom.

"You will not kill the girl. She is MY plaything. If you even touch her, you are going back in that box. You hear me?"

"Fuck you Niklaus."

"Be quiet. Jack! GET IN HERE NOW!"

Jack came running in. "Yes Master? What is it?"

I picked me up, walked past Rebekah, hitting her shoulder with his and handed me into Jack's arms. He looked at Jack and handed me my things. I smiled. At least someone cares. I mean, how dare they treat me like this? Like I am a toy! I was about to reply when Klaus just covered my mouth.

"Not now love, I need to deal with my sister right now. You want Stefan? Well guess what little sister?" He was shoved and he got back up and shoved her back. What is going on? Are they related?

"What Nik?"

"I already have Stefan. I brought you here so you could be friends with the little doppelganger. Not try to kill her and go through her things. If you apologize I can bring Stefan in here." He answered.

"I'm sorry…"

"Elena."

"Elena. I did not mean to be so rude to you. I was only doing so because I hate my brother." She said and smiled.

"Good girl. Now. Was that so hard? Crystal! Bring in Stefan Salvatore!"

I saw a girl come in. She had blue eyes and blonde hair. She was carrying Stefan but he looked dead. "What is this Niklaus?"

"This is Stefan Salvatore. Your old lover. Now to become your lover again. I know so because I did a little something to him. Wake him. Now." He said and took Stefan and sat him on the bed, using a hand to keep him from flopping and falling on his face.

She whispered something and he awoke. "Where am I Klaus?"

"You are in our temporary home. Make yourself welcome for about three minutes. Come here love." He waved me to come over to him. I refused. He frowned and grabbed me; he yanked me over to his side. "Who is this?"

"… I have no clue. She looks like Katherine. Can we eat her?"

"You would like to eat something as vile as Katerina? See Rebekah? He loves none but you Rebekah."

"Rebekah? Where?" he saw her and walked over. They began a kiss and I was dragged outside.

"What did you do? He loves me."

"Shut up doppelganger." He said and then he sat on the hood of a gold (?) car.

"Why does that car look like it's made of gold?"

"Because it is. It is mine. My personal car. I just had Crystal change out the license plate. So no one can ever find me."

"Why? Why do you run? Who are you running from?"

"None of your business, love. You are getting nosy. I don't like it. Crystal come out here and bring our friends won't you?" In less than five minutes, everyone was outside the building and Rebekah had Stefan's arm around her. I frowned and tried to get off Klaus' lap to talk to Stefan but he held me tighter. "Okay now that we have Rebekah we need to go see Gloria."

We all got into his car and I was in the front while Crystal sat on his lap. He drove us to Gloria's Bar again. I sighed. How many times were we going to come here?

When we went in Gloria called out. "Welcome back. Did you bring what I asked for?"

"Yes. Rebekah go say something." He whispered into her ear.

"Gloria, what am I doing here?"

"Where's your necklace?" She touched her neck, then her dress. She began to franticly search. She disappeared and then after a few minutes she was back.

"What did you do with my necklace?"

"I didn't touch it. Where is it Rebekah? Where could you have possibly lost it?" she didn't answer, just keeping searching the building. Then she glared at Klaus.

"I'll see if I can find it." She turned her attention to Gloria. They all waited for what felt like 30 minutes.

"What's going on?"

"She is looking for the damn necklace."

"Why is she taking so long?"

"It's hard to find something when you don't have anything to go on."

"So use me. I only wore it for a thousand years."

"See? Now this one offers a solution." Rebekah sat on the table; Gloria took her hand and began the search again.

"I can sense something." She dropped Rebekah's hand and looked at Klaus. "I found it."

"So where is it?"

"It doesn't work like that, doll. I get images. It's in a bag with a hair dryer and some books in a hotel room. Room number 534."

"And which building would that be?"

"Well, I'll have to dive back in to get the details."

"So dive." Klaus replied and smiled, if I didn't know any better I would think he was an angel by the way he was smiling. I was alone but I could feel Crystal come closer to me, as if, to make sure I didn't try a break for it.

"I need more time. And space. You're harshing my juju. That spell took a lot of me."

"We can wait." He said and his smirk looked frightening, as if he was planning to do something but Stefan got in between them.

"I'm sure you can. But that's not what I asked."

"What are you? Our mother?" Rebekah joked. Klaus bared his teeth at her and turned back to Gloria.

"Hey. Hey, you know, why don't we just come back later? I'm hungry anyway. I'll let you pick who we eat." He said the last sentence in a singsong voice. Klaus looked at Rebekah and then me. He grabbed my wrist and we walked out the building.

We went to a place called Rock Bottom Restaurant & Brewery. I walked in and sat down in a circle booth. I was stuck between Klaus and Jack. Beside Klaus was also Rebekah who was also sitting with Stefan. On the other side of Jack was Crystal. A waiter came and gave us menus. I looked and found immediately a burger and some chili. I tried to order a coke but Klaus interrupted me.

"I'll have a co—"

"Orange Juice for her please. I want Apple juice for me." The others ordered and we kept our menus. Stefan reached over the table but Klaus smacked his arm. "We'll feed after taking care of the others." I poked Klaus and he turned to me. "Yes love?" I heard Crystal stiffen. Why?

"Why did you make her get me a juice? I wanted a coke."

"Because you need to eat healthy. I will not have my toy be a fatty eating over weight girl. Therefore, I will allow you to eat as you please on Saturday and Sunday. Otherwise you eat healthy."

"Humph. Yeah we'll see how long that lasts."

"I accept your challenge. If I get you to eat healthy food for a month then you and I will begin to exercise daily for an hour. If you win then… you can eat as you please for a year."

"What tells you I'll be with you for a year?"

"Shush." Our drinks were brought to us and then we were asked what we wanted to eat. I started to order a burger, fries, chili and a cake when Klaus interrupted yet again. "She will have a salad. A Greenhouse Salad to be exact. A Veggie Burger with fries, put a little grease on those. And I will have the same." She wrote down the order along with everyone else's.

"May I have the menus or will you be ordering dessert as well?"

"Yes!" Rebekah called before anyone could say otherwise. However, Klaus didn't look like he was going to object to desert. The waiter left.

"Okay love. If you eat all your food, without complaining you can have desert, any you want. I won't choose that for you."

"Why did you choose the same?"

"To make it fair. Crystal what did you choose?"

"I chose something a little more fattening but I have had healthy meals all week."

"Very well then. And you Jack?"

"I have ordered a fattening meal. I have had nothing but salad for weeks."

"You're fooling me. You have had more than salad otherwise you would be begging to have something more." We talked until she brought the meal and by then I had finished my juice… and Klaus' too. He ordered another glass and a refill of our drinks. She left to attend to that. "Now one pair of you will have to move if Elena needs to go to the restroom, what with drinking all this liquid." I felt myself blush and Crystal looked over at us.

"Master you shouldn't talk of such things in public. It's rude and degrading."

"What makes you think you can talk to me in such a manner Crystal?"

"The fact that someone needs to remind you when to be nice."

"Well then, my Crystal, behave yourself or I might send you back to your post."

"Yes Master." She said meekly. I felt bad for her. How could Klaus treat people who worked for HIM like that? I decided that I wouldn't talk to him until he apologized to her. So I ate my meal in silence and when I went to take a sip of my drink I felt like I needed to go so I asked Jack to help me find the restroom.

"Actually I will." Klaus said and we got up and Klaus did indeed take me to the restroom. I went in, did my business, and came out to find he had stayed there. I ignored him and walked back to my seat. Klaus got in first and then I followed suit. I finished my meal and drink and looked back to my menu.

I chose the Raspberry & Chocolate Mousse Mason Jar Dessert. I waited for the desert come and then Klaus got my attention by staring at me and nothing else. I tried to ignore him but something kept telling me to look at him. I lasted half way through my desert before I finally looked at him and he smiled.

"There we go. You never ignore me doppelganger." Then he kissed my lips and pulled away, licking his lips. I wiped my mouth, spitting. EW! He just kissed me! "Delicious." He turned back to his desert of carrot cake.

I finished my desert and wanted to ask for me but Klaus sent Rebekah, Crystal and I to the girls restroom while he, Stefan and Jack went to the boys restroom. Rebekah took my hand and led me in. She began to wash her face and then her hands. I watched as Crystal did the same but she took out a brush and began to brush her teeth with the toothpaste she pulled out of her bag. She looked at me and handed me some.

It was a Pink toothbrush and some cherry toothpaste. I shrugged and followed suit with both of them, brushing my teeth and washing my mouth out. Then I washed my hands and face. I dried off and threw the paper towels into the trash can. Rebekah was brushing her teeth. Then she washed off the brushes and the toothpaste containers. She put them back in Crystal's bag, before Crystal left she turned to me.

"I need to ask you something. Can you please speak to Master? If you do not, he will be cross with me for even trying to defend you. Usually I don't defend the ones he torments but I feel a certain aura about you. I couldn't help myself."

"I will once he apologizes to you." I replied.

"He will wait you out Elena. I am sorry he calls you names instead of using your name. Sometimes he—"

"Hurry it up in there or I'm coming in." Klaus called in. We jumped and she smiled at me before heading out. I followed her, still ignoring Klaus. He grabbed my arm and led us out. "Jack, Crystal. Watch Elena while we feed." He said and left us at his hotel room. I went and sat on my bed and pulled out my bag. I looked through my books and couldn't find one interesting enough and that I haven't read yet. I pulled out my necklace and put it on. It helped me remember Stefan loved me.

Then I heard the doorknob rattle open and put my necklace away, along with the books I pulled out. "We're back. Elena, love. How was it?" I ignored him. He frowned and sat by me and put me in his lap. What is his problem?

"That you won't talk to me. I thought we were building a friendship. Guess I was wrong. I need to take you and Rebekah shopping so that you two can get something new. But first …you need to talk to me. Rebuild our friendship. Come on then. Talk to me."

I snorted and turned away from him. Rebekah came in and sat on the dresser. "Please Elena? I need new clothes. Please? For me?"

"Fine. For you I will. Klaus. What do you want me to say?"

"Well now I feel like you are being forced to speak to me."

"Apologize to Crystal for being a hybrid dick." He began to laugh and he laughed hard. He fell backwards and the bed began to shake. "I'm being for real. Apologize and the 'relationship' will keep going." He stopped laughing and then he just laid there. I didn't know what he was thinking. He frowned and sighed. He sat up.

"Crystal, sweetheart, get in here please." She came in and waited for further instruction.

"I'm sorry for being so rude in that restaurant. Do you forgive me?" he said, sounding genuinely sorry.

"Yes Master. I forgive you."

"Thank you. Now you are coming with us to the store. Jack while you are here I want you to tidy stuff up. I do not want this place a mess when I come back. Doppelganger." He said and shoved me gently. I found myself laughing, but stopped the next second, stood up and went to stand by Rebekah.

"So we're going?"

"Yes. BUT we only get an hour for this so don't take too long trying to find clothes." He said and picked his car keys back up. "Also thanks again for bringing Stefan." So we headed out and we found a building. We went to a store called Fashion Outlets Of Chicago.

We went in and looked for clothes. I found some shirts, even one with a black background and a giant yellow smiley face, and some shorts, pants and a dress. The dress was made of silk and it had a long funnel skirt. If I wore it, the skirt would have a bit of a trail behind me. It had only one shoulder for the dress and the top was purple. The skirt was purple and violet lines going from the waist to down to the end of the skirt. Even the back of the dress was missing until it got five inches from the waist. I smiled and chose it because it was so beautiful. I took the clothes and tried on the dress.

"It looks very pretty on you. Very good in exclaiming your good qualities." Klaus replied from behind me. I turned around and stared at him. "I'll buy them for you."

"Where is Elijah?" That comment made his face fall. He looked sad for a second before it went stone cold again. He snorted and growled at me, even though I could see a tear in his eye.

"That is none of your business." He turned and grabbed my other clothes and the dress. I had put it over my clothes. He walked off to go buy them. I felt torn but something told me I had said the right thing. I must have been mistaken. Klaus has no feelings.

When I saw him again, he was sitting on a sofa couch with his legs extended, and he was laid sitting up with a pillow behind his back. He was drinking champagne with Stefan and they were watching Rebekah try on clothes.

"There has to be more to this dress."

"There's not." She came out looking very pretty with a black dress on. It was short and had small cuttings on it, just enough to see her skin but not too much. Like peeks at her skin.

"You look pretty Rebekah." She smiled at me. Then turned back to her sibling.

"So women in the 21st century dress like prostitutes, then. You know, I got dirty looks for wearing trousers."

"You wore trousers so women today could wear nothing." Klaus replied; he was ignoring me.

"And what is this music? It sounds like a cable car accident."

"It's dance music." Stefan answered, trying to help her feel better.

"People dance to this?"

"Hmm."

"Are we done? You already have ten outfits."

"And why are you so grumpy?" He snorted but I caught sight of a slight formation of a tear. But it disappeared in the same second.

"I needed one thing from you for my witch to find out why my hybrids are dying, one thing. Your necklace. And you lost it."

"I didn't lose it. It's just been missing for 90 years." She looked to Stefan.

"90 years equals lost, Rebekah."

"So what do you think?"

"I like it." She sighed and went back in.

"What? I said I like it."

"I can always tell when you're lying, Stefan." Klaus looked at Stefan, smirking.

"Nice one, good work."

"I said I liked it. She did not believe me. Besides you're the one that pulled the dagger out of her."

"I heard that."

"All right. I'm going to get some fresh air."

"Well then. Take Elena and Crystal with you. Along with their bags." He said and handed Stefan six of the bags. He took them and Crystal and I followed him. Stefan put the bags in the car. I got in and Crystal sat up front.

-Meanwhile-

Klaus POV

"Rebekah?"

"Yes Nik?"

"Would it be wrong of me to say I miss the others?"

"If you want, you could send for them again."

"NO! I mean… Lijah. Kol. Finn." She dropped her smirk to be replaced by a gentle smile. She came and sat by me. Despite my snort to tell her no. She sat on my lap and gave me more to drink. "What are you doing?"

"I think that if you miss them you could wake them. You know?"

"Yes but I would need a peace offering. I have Sage and I have Katerina. What do I give Kol?"

"… Well why do you need peace offerings? It's not like you are trying to trick Charles into liking you."

"Shut up sister. I need them because how else am I to say that I am sorry for doing so? Finn I could care less about. You know how he is."

"Yet you have collected his harlot."

"Yes. Because despite his flaws, he is our brother. Even if I could do without his chidings. You know Elijah will be quite displeased with me."

"What did you do this time?"

"Daggered him."

"Why are you so stupid? If you need it, I will help you bring them back."

"I DON"T NEED HELP REBEKAH. I am-"

"Spare me your plight. I know what and who you are. I am your sister. Just undagger them. If they cause you any trouble, I'll dagger them." She said and smiled at me. I smiled back, just thinking how funny that would be.

"Then Elijah will dagger you."

"Well let's not waste our time. Let's you and I go and check for that necklace of mine."

"It's not yours; it belongs to the Original Witch. YOU stole it."

"Yes, back when I was 5 Nik. Drop it." I laughed at her.

-Meanwhile-

I was in the car and we were speeding down every road Stefan could find. I couldn't help myself. It was fun. However, I never would have expected STEFAN to do this. He turned down another road and that was when we heard it. Cop sirens.

"Crystal?" I asked, prolonging the end of her name.

"Yes?" she replied with the same tone.

"Does Klaus have plates on his car? I forgot to look."

"Nope." She said, as if it was nothing.

"Stefan we are so going to jail. DO SOMETHING!"

"Okay." He just sped up faster. I screamed as we skid down another turn and we headed out to the lake of Michigan. I screamed again.

"I didn't mean speed up!"

"Shush! Everything's going to be fine!" He called, shouting himself.

"STEFAN!"

He turned an illegal U-turn and the cops went skidding by and into the lake. Stefan drove us back to Klaus and I jumped out of the car as it stopped and fell into his arms. "Promise me Klaus that we will NEVER do that again!" I said, still screaming.

"That was nothing compared to what Damon would have done." Stefan shouted.

"That was kind of fun actually." Crystal shouted.

"SILENCE!" Klaus yelled. We all fell silent. "What happened Stefan?"

"I sped." He said and began to laugh. I think his feelings were off.

"In my car? You are lucky that my car had no license plate on it at the time." He growled and held me close to him. "Sh. Love. You're with me now." I tried to calm down but I couldn't. He put us in the car and drove us back home- to the hotel. We dropped off Crystal and her things. Klaus took us out and we went to go wash and change clothes.

"Jack I want you to call up Angelina and tell her I want Katerina back. I also want you to call up Randal to bring me Sage. Tell her it is urgent. That her boyfriend is in danger of the Hunter. She's heard of him." He walked over to the door and knocked hard, twice. "Elena hurry up please. I have things to do. Places to go."

I came out dressed in my smiley shirt and some black jean shorts. He eyed me and then looked away. Crystal seemed to be displeased. What is up with them? One is displeased then the other is. Are they together or something? The voice told me not to do anything. Instead, it told me to follow Klaus. I did so and he put me in the back and let Rebekah up front with Stefan behind her seat.

I heard music begin to play. Pink- Blow Me (One Last Kiss) I smiled and watched the scenery of Chicago fly by. I saw people talking, walking and even some kissing. How funny. I looked at Stefan and he had his head out the window. I smiled, stood up, rolled down the window and put my head out the window as well.

"Careful love, don't want your head flying off."

"Too bad we don't have beer. I love this."

"The wind blowing through your hair?"

"Yeah. That."

I watched the people and saw someone go inside the store we just left. I think we were going to stay in Chicago for a while. Long enough for my friends to come for me. And Stefan. I hope. Even if Klaus was making things fun. I still wanted to go back to Mystic Falls.

I began to sing the song along with Pink and saw we were coming to a stop and pulled my head back in. I rolled up the window and fixed my hair back. I heard Klaus laugh and looked to see what he was laughing at… me. I frowned and got out of the car. He followed me. I sighed as he grabbed my wrist and led me in.

"Gloria! You have had more than enough time to recuperate. Now come out here and tell me where that damn necklace is!"

"Okay don't let go of your horses." She said, coming out. "Let me see what I can find." She grabbed Rebekah and then she let go. "The bag is in a room with a boy of about 35 with black hair, wearing a black shirt and a brown leather jacket, blue jeans and hazel eyes. A girl with blonde hair, wearing an ice blue dress, with blue eyes. If you can find those people, you can find the necklace."

Rebekah stared at Klaus. "Well? Any ideas?"

"What hotel? I think I know where you are talking about. Just want to be sure."

"The Langham."

"Stay here. Elena you're coming with me." He said and took me back to the hotel. The Langham. He took me back to the room. "Find your things. You are the only one with books in your bag." I dug through my bag and found nothing. I pulled out my necklace.

"This is the only thing I can find." I said. He snatched it and my hand. He took me back to the bar and we went inside. He took the necklace and handed it to Gloria.

"Here."

"She says that you should kill the doppelganger. That if she stays alive, that you will not be able make hybrids. She demands that you leave her alone and she took the magic from the necklace. No. Wait. I can't hear her anymore." She said. "Well I'm sorry."

"As am I. That you're lying." He said and broke her neck. I screamed but he covered my mouth, put the necklace in his pocket and ran his fingers through my hair. "Sh. Sh. It's okay love. You're safe." He said and kissed my cheek.

I stopped and shied away from him. He sighed and looked at everyone. "That settles it. We are headed out to find more answers. Come." He called the witches from the hotel room.

He pulled me to his car and sat me in the passenger seat. He kissed my cheek before he went right back to ignoring me. I sighed. We were on another adventure. The witches were to meet up with us and take our things. Meaning I was stuck in this outfit for a while. I put on the radio and turned it to Kiss FM.
