Care and the twins hugged Hazel, "I missed you guys, so" she looked to Fred and George, "Did you ask them out yet?"

Nik growled but stopped when Hazel glared at him. Sighing, he looked to his sister, "If you want to go out, I won't say or do anything to stop you from living your life." He then looked to Elijah, "The same applies to you."

Both looked at their brother with wide eyes. Nik was always threatening and killing anyone they ever tried to care for. He worried they would leave him. Rebekah looked to Hazel and asked, "What did you do with my brother, because this is not Niklaus."

Hazel smirked, "He told me what he did and may have threatened his bits if he didn't leave you to live your lives." She walked over, kissing Niks jaw, "He of course, agreed."

Nik smirked at the looks coming from his siblings. When they heard Damon yell, "Thank god, they figured it out!" Everyone broke into laughter. Walking over to them, he glared at Nik, "While I'm glad you both figured your shit out, I will kill you if you hurt her."

Nik nodded, "I understand." Looking to his siblings, he says, "Why don't we wake Kol and Finn, Katherine can sit tight for a bit."

~~~

Hazel had gone to follow the others when they left, but Nik stopped her. "Will you stay? I need at least one person on my side."

Leaning up to kiss him, "I'll stay but you have Bekah and Elijah on your side." He wasn't so sure but nodded and laced their fingers together before walking towards where the last two siblings were.

Hazel watched anxiously as the daggers were removed from Kol and Finn. She could see the tension in Niks shoulders. He was worried they wouldn't stay. They had talked about a lot while on the road, so she knew he only ever wanted to keep his family together and safe. Mikael's death gave them the chance to have that. When he had told her about his mother, Hazel wasn't sure how to respond. Personally, she didn't care for someone who would sit by as her husband beat her son, at times, to a point of almost death. When she told Nik he should tell his siblings, he only replied with he would think about it. A noise caught her attention, and she stood closer to Nik in support.

Nik watched as Kols eyes glanced from one sibling to the next, when they landed on him, he seen them harden. "Brother" Nik said calmly but Kol had already left his coffin to attack.

Hazel could only watch as Kol attacked Nik, he had told her not to interfere, for her own safety. So, she watched the two trade punches until Kol ran out of steam. Once he slumped to the ground, Hazel moved to Niks side. "Are you okay?" he nodded and took the blood bag she handed him. Glaring at Kol, she chucked the other blood bag at his head.

Kol gaped at her, "What the hell did I do to you? Wait, who even are you?"

Elijah stepped forward, "Hazel broke Niklaus' curse and they're together."

Kol looked back at her, "You're a witch? Why would you want to be with him?" He sneered at his brother.

Hazel sent a hex at Kol, smirking when he yelped. "Why I'm with Nik is none of your business, and yes I'm a core witch."

"Core witch? It's been centuries since I last met a core witch." He looked her over again, smirking at Niks growl.

Nik smiled when Kol's hair turned pink, "I could always stick you back in a box, I won't even need a dagger."

Everyone turned to see Finn sitting up and staring. Hazel squealed and whispered, "Holy hell, that was like Dracula waking up." Elijah glared at her, but Nik snorted.

"Luv, you should lay off the movies."

Hazel shrugs, "I call it as I see it."

~~~

Finn had only wanted to speak with Elijah, so Nik took Kol upstairs to show him his bedroom. The Hybrids he had hired, finished up while they had been gone. Hazel was sitting on Rebekahs bed while she looked through her clothes.

"What should I wear for the date? What color does George like?"

Hazel smiled, "He likes bright and colorful fashion. I think whatever you pick, he will like it. George is just happy you agreed to go."

"I was worried, I didn't know if you would be okay with me dating your friend. I was also worried Nik would try to kill him."

"I was worried you all wouldn't like me with Nik, so I can understand." Hazel smirked, "Nik most definitely won't be a problem, I've handled him."

Rebekah let out a laugh, "Nik seems different with you. I could see it at the grill. Thank you for giving him a chance to show you the real Niklaus."

Their conversation was interrupted by yelling. With sighs, they headed out to the hall.

~~~

Care and the twins were glaring down Kol. He didn't seem to realize he was the only one with an issue of Rebekah going out. Once the girls reached the bottom of the stairs, they stood before Kol, glaring.

"Back off Kol. I can date whoever I please. George is a gentleman, which is more than I can say about you." Rebekah huffed.

Nik stepped forward, "Why don't you all head out. Have a good evening." Rebekah smiled and led the other three out.

Kol whined but Hazel silenced him. She didn't care to listen to his drabble. When he finally realized that no sound was coming out of his mouth, everyone had already left the room.

~~~

Care had talked the twins into helping with Senior prank night. Of course, Hazel was forced to come as well. Rebekah thought it was an amazing way to start high school. She wanted to enjoy life as a normal teenager and Care was happy to have her.

Things had been going well until Jeremy was caught up in a witch situation that Bonnie had caused and somehow ended up being able to see his dead exes. He hadn't wanted to alarm Bonnie or Elena, so he had asked Hazel for help. They had been searching through old grimoires, hoping to find something that could help them.

Hazel was running back home to change clothes and get ready to go to Niks. She had spilt some nasty ingredients on herself and needed to wash them off. She had been lucky and avoided running into Stuffy since she had returned to town, but it seemed her luck had run out.

~~~

Hazel entered the house and headed upstairs. She had just finished getting dressed when she heard Damon yell. Running downstairs, Stuffy brushed past her, ignoring his brother. "Dick" she grumbled and headed to find Damon. Entering the living room, Hazel froze, "Day?"

Damon looked up, "Hazel, I think we have a problem." He pulled on the chains tied around him.

She had just taken a step towards him when the curtains were opened, and Damon screamed. Hazel threw herself over him, blocking as much light as she could. "Day, are you okay? Please say you are."

Damon nodded, "Yeah, my rings missing." Hazel quickly summoned it and put it back on him. "Thanks" he replied as she undid the chains.

"What the hell just happened?"

"No clue but I have an idea of who might."

Hazel sighed, "Jeremy asked for my help with seeing his dead ex, Anna."

Wincing, he motioned to the chair, "I think Masons here too."

"Well shit" Hazel glared at the stairs, "Why didn't Stefan help you?"

Damon sighed, "He's still in a shitty mood. Right now, we have a problem to deal with. Let's go."

Hazel followed Damon out, texting Nik and Kol as she went. Hopefully Kol could find something in the grimoires to help them.

~~~

Care called and told her what she had found out, it seemed this was all Bonnie's fault. Great. She let the others know what was going on and they were all meeting up.

Nik walked up to where Hazel was sitting next to Damon, "Luv. Kols looking for Bonnie, he's hoping he can tell her how to close whatever door she opened."

"Yeah, she opened the door and now every spirit who wanted, is back." They all turned to look at the man sitting next to Damon.

"Mason, I knew it was you." Damon growled.

Hazel glared from over Niks shoulder, "You might be dead, but I can still torture you."

Mason paled and looked back to Damon. "I need you to help keep Tyler safe. The Lockwood family has records of a White Oak tree." He glanced to Nik, "It grew after your family left Mystic Falls. They cut it down but I'm not sure where it went. You need to find it. When you killed Mikael, all those he had sired died too. A powerful, old witch on the other side wants to do the same to the rest of you."

Hazel paled, "No" she looked between Nik and Damon. She couldn't let anyone take them from her. Looking back to Mason, she asked "Who's the witch?"

He flinched away from her eyes, they were black. "I don't know her name, only that she's the oldest or something."

Nik froze, "That bitch" he growled.

Damon thanked Mason who replied, "I just want to save Tyler."

Hazel looked to Damon, the Salvatore family would have all logging records. "Where would records that old be?"

Damons eyes widened, "They're at the house, all records are stored in the library."

"Okay, you tell Kol to get the door shut, we will look through the records and find where that tree went." Hazel looked up at Nik who nodded.

"Go with Damon. I'll meet you shortly. Elijah can help, call him." Nik gave her a kiss and flashed away.

Hazel and Damon started towards the door, Mason following. "I'll help until my times up." They nodded and headed back to the house.

~~~

There were so many people searching through the records that when Mason stood, it was noticed. He looked surprised and then he was gone. Everyone stared until Niks phone rang.

"Kol" he listened before telling him to get over to the Salvatores. "The doors closed, and they're all gone." Nik walked over and pulled Hazel up, "We will be right back."

They didn't stop until they were in her bedroom. "What?" she asked and then threw up silencing spells before he spoke.

"Call Death" Nik replied.

Hazels eyes widened but she did, "Death, your Mistress calls for you." They both turned to watch as he appeared.

"Mistress" he bowed.

"Death, do you know anything about a witch who's wanting to kill the Originals?"

Shaking his head, he replied, "I do not but I will find her. That can't happen, if the Originals are killed, every vampire sired by them will die as well. It would throw nature out of line."

"No" Hazel gasped, "That can't happen" she shook her head in denial. She couldn't think of Day or Nik dying.

Nik took her in his arms, looking to Death, he said, "I think it's my mother, she has always hated what we turned out to be, even though she created us."

Death nodded, "I shall go now. I won't allow anyone to come back who's a threat to my Mistress." He looked to Hazel, "I have watched you since you were a child, that won't stop now that you're immortal."

"Thank you" she whispered. The friend that only she could see, the one who kept her safe, had always been Death.

Nik pulled her face to his once Death disappeared, "She won't win luv. We will stop her if Death can't" Hazel nodded and kissed him.

~~~

Somehow, they had finally found the records for the White Oak tree and what it had been turned into. That was how Hazel, Kol, Fred and George found themselves standing on Wickory Bridge, ready to destroy it. Looking to the twins, Hazel asked, "How many explosives do you currently have on you?"

They both grinned, "A gentleman" "Never tells."

Kol smiled, "Let's make it memorable" he walked over to the sign and ripped it down, "Let's not forget this." He tossed it onto the bridge.

It took over thirty minutes to hook up all of the explosives. Once they were finished, Hazel put a shield around them. The explosion was amazingly beautiful. The twins seemed to have some of their fireworks tied in, for that little extra. Anyone within a six-mile area would have been able to see the flames.

The four stood there until only ashes remained, the whole thing burned in less than twenty minutes. Hazel created a breeze that scattered the ashes, leaving no threat of harm to the Originals. When the sirens began to approach, the twins went back to Care while Hazel took Kol back home. Nik greeted them and took Hazel up to his room, she was covered in soot and needed to shower.

~~~

Hazel left a trail of clothes all the way to the shower. Nik smirked and followed the trail. The glass of the shower was steamy, but he could see the outline of her body. Taking off his own clothes, he slid in behind her. Hazel looked glorious, water flowed down her curves, and she had her head tilted back. Gripping her hips, he pulled her flush against his body. Leaning in, Nik took her mouth with his.

Hazel moaned at the feeling of Niks body against her own. He was hard where she was soft. She felt as he lifted her into his arms and pressed her against the cool tiles. Her body was secured between the wall and Niks. Hazel craned her neck as he began to kiss down it.

Nik pinned Hazel, moving a hand down, he slid his hard cock into her welcoming heat. Both moaned as he bottomed out. Holding her under her knees, Nik began a fast pace. he knew she had been in a constant state of worry ever since they heard his mother was free. Right now, he had her mind off that threat and completely on him and their current actions. Nik kissed her neck when she threw her head back. Feeling her flutter around him, he licked and kissed her soft neck before piercing it with his fangs. Hazel came immediately, squeezing him hard enough to pull his orgasm from him.

Nik pulled his fangs from Hazel's neck, licking over the spot before kissing it again. He could tell her legs wouldn't hold her. Shutting the water off, he carried her out of the shower. Nik was just wondering how he was going to dry them when their bodies and hair were dried. Continuing to the bedroom. he laid Hazel on the bed.

"Are you okay luv?" Nik was worried she was doing too much and not taking care of herself.

Hazel nodded, "I'm better now. The White Oak is all gone" she gave him a small smile. She watched as he laid next to her and pulled the covers over them, "I love you."

Nik froze, he turned to look at Hazel, hoping he had heard her right. "You do?" he asked, when she nodded, he kissed her before saying, "I love you, Hazel." She smiled brightly at him, running a hand over his face. She rubbed under his eye, where his veins show in his Hybrid form.

Nik closed his eyes at the feel of her touch. Hazel was the only person who ever touched him like this. He wasn't sure when, but he had fallen in love with her. His wolf even loved her, well, he knew Hazel was his. He nipped at her finger when she traced his lip.

Hazel smiled, she couldn't imagine her life without Nik now. That's why this threat terrified her so much, she could lose Damon, Nik, Care, Bekah, Elijah, and even Kol. She wouldn't be able to handle that. A tear escaped her eye without her approval.

Nik caught her tear, "Everything will be alright luv, I promise. You won't lose us." He changed the topic, hoping to cheer her up. "Do you happen to know why your blood makes me feel like I'm high?"

Hazel gave a watery chuckle, "It may have to do with my magic. Not sure since yours affected me similarly."

"You were also high on raw magic." Nik laughed.

Hazel raised an eyebrow, "Do you want to test it?"

Nik thought it over, he did want to know just how his blood affected her. Nodding, he leaned up on his elbow, "If you're willing to."

"Okay, give me blood then" she watched as his pupils dilated. He must like her saying that. Nik bit his wrist, breaking the skin and held it up to her mouth. Hazel gripped his arm and took two mouthfuls of his blood. She was shocked at the taste, it wasn't coppery but sweet.

Nik pulled his arm back and watched as a hazel fell over her eyes. His eyes widened as the blackness covered her eyes again. "Luv?" he whispered.

Hazel smiled up at him, "This is different" she held her hand up and pulled power to it. They both watched as the magic danced across her fingers. She released the magic, and it spread over them. Looking to Nik, she smiled, and he dove in for another round.
