After she woke up inside the Boarding House, Rebekah explained to them that Elena had been the one to dagger her in the back after she came around looking for answers for her brother and found out that Mickeal was undaggered and about to wake up.

Rebekah finished her tale just as Sage and Finn pulled up in front of the house so while Rebekah and Rachel went to greet them, Damon called Klaus with the update.

The powerful hybrid replied that he had just entered the town and said he would be joining them soon to start planning their next action. He gave his hybrids instructions to go at his house and stay with Tyler and Santana (who since they were first were highly ranked) until they got orders.

After he arrived at the Boarding House, they all took a few minutes to reunite before trying to form a plan to stop Mickeal.

"Why is Stefan working with them anyway?" Sage asked.

"It could be because I compelled him to turn his emotions off…He's mad at me for keeping him away all summer…for trying to kill Elena in the sacrifice…" Klaus suggested.

"Damn those Doppelganger wrench, always hurting my family!" Rebekah cursed.

After discussing it, they decided to sabotage the gymnasium so they would have to cancel the dance and had Tyler organise it at his place. Mickeal wouldn't be able to come in and the hybrids would be all around to protect them while they did their best to kill Mickeal for good.

"Well, planning someone's death is always entertaining but Rebekah and I still need to get ready for the dance. We didn't get perfect dresses to leave them hanging around in our bedrooms." Rachel said.

"True." Rebekah nodded as she stood and followed her friend.

"Who are you going with?" Klaus asked, almost shouting, as Rachel was about to climb the stairs.

"What?" She asked, turning around.

"The dance tonight… I hear it's the kind of things you bring a date to… Do you have one?" He asked her, not knowing why he was so interested in this.

"Yes, I have a date." Rachel replied before she turned her back on him with a knowing smile to Rebekah before she climbed the stairs.

"Who is it?" he shouted.

Rachel stopped mid-step, turned her head toward him and said with a small smile "Rebekah.".

"What was that all about?" Finn asked Klaus after Rebekah and Rachel had locked the door.

"I don't know… Don't ask me…" Klaus replied as he let himself drop in one of the armchairs.

"You like her." Sage said.

"I don't like anybody." Klaus replied with a glare as he took a sip of bourbon.

"It's obvious to anyone who has eyes to see…and you're angry because she's mad at you for turning Stefan's emotions off… She's making you doubt everything you've ever believed in… It's really as simple as that." Sage said before she went upstairs to help the girls.

"Just…don't try anything with her until you're sure your feelings are true and don't break her heart… I hate to see my daughter sad and I would hate to have to start hating you and working against you." Damon said.

Klaus nodded and they went back to not talking about it.

.

The party started and Rachel quickly found Santana who introduced her to a few hybrids.

"So, what is your role tonight?" Rachel asked her almost sister.

"Keeping you safe and out of harm's way."

"I mean with the whole Klaus and Mickeal thing." Rachel added.

"Yeah, Klaus gave me and this group the order of making sure nothing happened to you." Santana said with a knowing smile as she pointed to the group of 8 hybrids near them.

"Why?" Rachel asked, confused and trying to ignore the warm feeling that just appeared in her stomach.

"Don't question it now and try to enjoy yourself. We're just here to make sure that Mickeal or anyone working with him doesn't get to you. We even drank some vervain so we can't be compelled." Santana smiled before she dragged Rachel to the dance floor with Rebekah.

.

While Rachel was dancing, Klaus confronted Stefan and compelled him to turn his emotions back on, adding that he didn't have to do as he was told anymore and that he was sorry.

When Mickeal arrived a few minutes later, holding Elena in a tight grip, Klaus tried to talk things out when Stefan staked him with the white oak stake, barely missing his heart.

"No!" Rachel yelled as she watched her father pushing Stefan away from afar.

Klaus stood up, grabbing the stake in his hand and quickly pushed it into his father's heart just as Sage and Finn arrived behind the man that had been hunting them for centuries and held him down until his body started to burn.

.

Rachel found herself back in the Boarding house a couple of hours later, with her father, Rebekah, Tyler, Santana, Rebekah, Klaus, Sage and Finn, discussing what had happened. Apparently, Mickeal had staked Katherine, making her pass for Elena while the human Gilbert was safely in her house.

"And where is Uncle Stefan now? I mean he turned it back on… Why isn't he here?" Rachel asked, trying not to look at Klaus.

After the situation with Mickeal had been handled, a slow dance came up and he had asked her to dance with him. She had accepted of course, he anger at him about Stefan forgotten over the fear she had felt when he had been staked. She had been happy in his arms and she could still feel his strong arms around her and his soft voice as they talked. She didn't know if she was happy or angry that they had been interrupted by one of the hybrids saying they was done with dealing with the body and that some of them were ready to leave, ending their private moment for good. Sh was very confused about everything and was trying to keep her mind on anything else that would prevent her from feeling this conflicted.

"I didn't see where he went after staking Klaus." Damon replied.

They were interrupted by a phone ringing.

Klaus took his out and said "Just who we were talking about."

"Stefan, what can I do for you mate?" Klaus asked him.

"You ruined my life Klaus…" Stefan said.

"Let's bygones be bygones. You're free now and I did apologise for everything."

"You tried to kill my girlfriend, nearly drained her of her blood so you could make your hybrids, kept me from spending the human summer I wanted with Elena… Elena and Katherine are right, I need to get back at you."

"And what are you going to do Mate?" Klaus asked as everyone was cursing Elena for manipulating Stefan again. Her grip on the young vampire was so strong that he didn't even need her present to do stupid things for her.

"Aren't you missing a few coffins? I'm looking at Elijah right now… I'm guess the other one is Kol… But who is in the coffin that won't open?" Stefan asked in a tone that showed just how confident he was.

"You better give them back to me right now or I swear…" Klaus started to yell but was interrupted by Stefan:

"Or what? You don't have the power now, I do. You do something I don't like and I'm throwing them at the bottom of the ocean. Start by staying away from Elena because if you take one more drop of her blood from her, one of your brothers will find himself at the bottom of one of the numerous oceans of the planet." Stefan stated before he hung up.

"All of this for Elena? Seriously? I'm so sick of this! What does this whore has that I don't?" Rebekah snapped.

"Who's in the locked coffin Nik?" Finn asked.

"Mother… According to Ayana she can be brought back but there is a chance that if she does come back, she'll try to kill us all over again, so I'm keeping her locked and watched so nobody can get to her." Klaus explained while Rebekah was being comforted by Rachel.

He watched as his little sister was being dragged up the stairs by Rachel. Why was he so obsessed by the girl? Just looking at her almost made him forget his anger at Stefan.

"I know just the song to cheer you up Rebekah. It's from Victoria Justice and it's called 'Begging on your knees'. We're going to film you singing it and we're going to send it to Uncle Stefan so he can get the message and see what he's missing on." Rachel said as she dragged her friend to her bedroom, letting the other discuss possible plans to get the coffins back.

As the door to Rachel's room closed behind the two girls, Klaus couldn't help but be disappointing that he couldn't dance longer with her. Having her in his arms had been great and left him confused. Rachel was just a normal human right? So why was she capable of attracting him so much then? When he looked at Damon and Stefan, he could see a resemblance with Rachel and it confused him even more. He had immediately supposed that she had been adopted by Damon but she looked too much like him... Of course he knew she couldn't be Damon's biological daughter since the man was a vampire but maybe she was still a member of their family...

That girl had, once again, filled his head with thoughts and wonders. Klaus didn't know why or how but he needed to find out more about her.

.

About an hour after his phone call to Klaus, Stefan got a message from Rachel on his cell phone. It was a video so he opened it, figuring she had something to tell him and wanted to do so in an original way.

As the video started, he recognised Rachel's bedroom. Rebekah was in front of the screen, music in the background and started to sing a song he had heard Rachel sing once before in front of a TV show.

You had it all.
The day you told me, Told me you want me.
I had it all. But let you fool me, Fool me completely.
Yeah, I was so stupid, To give you all my attention, Cause the way you played me, Exposed your true intentions.
And one day I'll have you begging on your knees for me Yeah, one day I'll have you crawling like a centipede You mess with me, And mess with her So I'll make sure you get what you deserve Yeah, one day you'll be begging on your knees for me
Watch your back Cause you don't know when or where I could get you!
I set the trap, and when I'm done, Then you'll know what I've been through!
So, Oh, mister player do you feel like a man now?
And, I bet that you're nervous because this song makes you freak out
And one day
I'll have you begging on your knees for me Yeah, one day I'll have you crawling like a centipede You mess with me, And mess with her So I'll make sure you get what you deserve Yeah, one day you'll be begging on your knees for me
I know I'm being bitter, But I'm gonna drive you wonder.
Cause you just don't, don't, Don't deserve a happy ever after.
But what you did to me, After you told me, You never felt that way.
It was only just a game.
And one dayyyyyyyy
And one day I'll have you begging on your knees for me Yeah, one day I'll have you crawling like a centipede You mess with me, And mess with her So I'll make sure you get what you deserve Yeah, one day you'll be begging on your knees for me

As he watched, he was reminded of the feelings he still had for Rebekah… Of course he loved Elena but he still had lingering feelings for the blond original who captured his heart back in the 20's… He wasn't sure of what he should do… He wanted revenge on Klaus for Elena and everything he had done to her but what if his real endgame wasn't Elena but Rebekah? What about Katherine? These past few days of her being around had been pretty confusing as well…

He needed to clear his head, he needed to figure out what he really wanted and most of all, he needed to get away from all the confusion.

"Elena, it's Stefan. Listen, I can't do this right now… I'm sorry but I need to be sure about my feelings before anything new happens between us… Sorry…" He hung up after leaving this message on her voice mail and went back to driving.

He was going to hide the coffins in the witch house, with the help of Bonnie.


So, what do you think about this one? I'm not entirely happy with it and might change it later.

Review please people, You know I love it when you do.
