Bonnie and Elena had been plotting with Katherine to find someone special, someone who had been hunting Klaus for a long time now. They knew that they needed help and so they decided to tell Stefan their plans and to get him to help them. After all, even with his emotions off, he wanted Elena safe...right?
Katherine and Elena both managed to get him to help by saying the right words and putting in front of him all the things Klaus had done to ruin his life. It worked and the young Salvatore vampire decided to help them. Even if he didn't feel much, apparently, he could feel anger and the want for revenge. Bonnie managed to locate the man, named Mickeal, with the help of a special and energy draining spell.
"It's going to take her a while to recover from this…" Elena said.
"Yeah well, I'll go and get this Mickeal back here. He kills Klaus for us and everything will be fine. I'll be free to go as I please without having to run ever again and you won't have to give away your blood anymore." Katherine said to them.
"Rachel would have been able to do this spell without breaking a sweat... Look at Bonnie, so pale, blood dripping from her nose... I still think we should let Damon in on it." Stefan said.
"Are you kidding me, he's just going to go running to Klaus and tell him everything… We can't count on him for this." Katherine decided before she left to find Mickeal at the location Bonnie had found.
.
"Hey Homecoming is just around the corner. Who are you going to the dance with?" Rebekah asked Rachel as they were painting each other's nails after school.
"I was thinking of going alone. You?"
"I could either compel myself a date or go alone…"
"Or we could go together and get people talking." Rachel smirked.
"I like your idea better…" Rebekah nodded.
She knew that there was something that Rachel wasn't telling her. She wasn't totally human and was something special.
"Rachel, now you don't have to answer me if you don't want to but… Are you really human?" Rebekah asked the female Salvatore.
"Don't I look human?"
"Yes, but then again so do I." Rebekah replied.
"True…I… What makes you think I'm not human?" Rachel asked.
"I'm not sure… There's an aura about you…and the way you react when Elena calls you 'freak'… You can trust me you know…"
"I know… I'm still getting used to everything and… I don't want just everyone knowing…" Rachel said before she added "I don't know how Klaus will react to finding this out and I'm not ready for this yet…"
"I won't tell him. You're my best friend Rachel...my first real friend too. I will keep your secret." Rebekah promised.
"My father, Damon Salvatore, is my biological father."
"But he's a vampire."
"I know…my biological mother was a witch. I shouldn't exist but somehow the spirits decided I needed to exist for the future or something… I was human until my 18th birthday… Now I'm half vampire and half witch."
"Wow… Do you actually have powers?" Rebekah asked her.
"Yes…I'm actually very powerful since my vampire half prevents me from getting tired as long as I drink blood… The sun doesn't hurt me, my heart still beats and I don't have to be invited to come into a house…" Rachel explained.
"You're not a freak Rachel, you're special… You're a treasure of nature." Rebekah told her softly.
"That's what daddy says but it's hard to believe sometimes when people like Elena and Bonnie keeps on giving me the cold shoulder."
"They're only jealous of you." Rebekah said.
In her head, Rebekah pictured Rachel standing next to her brother Niklaus on some sort of supernatural throne. Rachel didn't know it yet but Rebekah felt it, she was the queen to the king that Niklaus was.
"Maybe… Hey, did you notice how Bonnie was pale today?" Rachel asked her.
"Yeah, I did. Witch probably did a spell too big for her and it's taking her time to recover… Don't worry about her, she doesn't deserve it." She smiled and they went back to painting each other's nails.
"So, what colour is your dress going to be?" Rebekah asked Rachel before she suggested they went shopping together.
.
A few days after her departure, Katherine was back in town with Mickeal. Since they didn't want Alaric or anyone finding out about their plan, they all met at the witch house.
"We need to bring Klaus back in town… The best way to do this is to tell him that I'm dead." Mickeal said.
"I think he'll want proof of that…and an explanation as to how it happened." Katherine said.
"Simple. I tried to kill Elena, Stefan and Bonnie worked together to keep me down while Elena daggered me. Of course you'll have to really dagger me for it to work but I'll ensure you pull this dagger out by not telling you were my white oak weapon is hidden." Mickeal said.
"Sounds like a good plan to me." Stefan replied with a shrug of the shoulders before they put it in motion.
It all worked perfectly and after being on the phone with Stefan for a while, Klaus told them he was on his way.
.
Klaus had a hard time believing that Mickeal was finally dead and the fact that Rebekah wasn't able to confirm it was even more suspicious. He called her and asked her to look into it but was unable to get her on the phone ever since then. He was almost in town but decided to call Rachel and ask her if she knew why Rebekah was avoiding his calls. They were friends so she must know something right?
"Rachel, I was wondering if you could tell me what Rebekah is up to." He said as soon as she answered.
"Klaus? I don't know where she is… Last time I saw her she was answering a phone call from you about finding Mickeal and checking if he was really dead. When she didn't come back I figured she had to bring him to you or something like this…" Rachel replied.
"Something has to be wrong… I could understand her being mad at me for some reason and not answering but she wouldn't keep you out of the loop too." Klaus said.
"When Rebekah mentioned the possibility of Mickeal being dead and in town, I called Finn and Sage, they should be in town soon… Until then I can try and look for Rebekah…" She suggested.
"Thanks, I'll be in town soon but don't try anything too dangerous, please. You stay safe, don't do anything reckless!" Klaus said before he hung up.
He made sure to keep things cold so he wouldn't get sidetracked but it was hard when her voice on the phone sounded so…appealing…cute… what was wrong with him?
.
As Klaus hung up, Rachel immediately got a map of the town out and started a spell to locate Rebekah. Luckily, she had asked Rebekah to give her a lock of her hair a while back just for occasions like this.
She quickly located her at the witch house and warned her father. Of course Damon went with her and while he distracted Stefan, who was standing guard at the house, she went inside, fought quickly against the spirits of the witches and freed Rebekah. Thanks to her vampire strength, she was able to carry Rebekah's body out of the house and to her car where her father was waiting for her, ready to start and drive back home before anyone else arrived.
"Did you keep the dagger?" Damon asked her.
"Of course I did. I don't want them going against Rebekah again or against Finn..." She replied s she glanced in the rear view mirror to see if they were followed. Fortunately, they were alone on the road.
As you can see, it's only part 1 of the Homecoming events.
Please don't forget to review!
Once again, I don't go into details about things that happen just like the TV Show.
