Scarlett's POV
I sit up slowly and feel clothes hit me in the face.
"The hell?" I say and turn to see Elijah standing over me and Klaus laying naked across from me.
'Holy shit... Joseph Morgan... You so sexy.'
"You've been busy," Elijah says.
"That was amazing. How long has it been?" Klaus asks.
"Almost two days. Full moon came and went. You remained wolves," Elijah says as Klaus and I get dressed.
"We can change at will, then. It's good to know. I remember every single kill," Klaus says.
"Yes, I've been cleaning up your little mess along the way," Elijah says.
"Just like old times, brother," Klaus says.
"You've had your fun. I believe we have a bargain," Elijah says.
"That's right. Now, what was it again? Oh, yeah. Wait. I remember. That's it. You wish to be reunited with our family," Klaus says.
"You gave me your word, Niklaus," Elijah says.
"What kind of brother would break his bond? Even though you did try to kill me," Klaus says.
"I could have. But I didn't," Elijah says and helps Klaus put on his jacket.
"And now no one can, not even you. Relax, Elijah. All is forgiven," Klaus says.
"Where are they?" Elijah says.
"You need to lighten up. I'll bring you to them soon enough. But for now, Scarlett," he says and turns to me.
"Yes?" I ask.
"Why didn't you kill Bonnie?" he asks.
"I didn't want them to hate me. I made you a deal to save Jenna. Don't think of my loyalty in any other way," I say with a fake sneer.
"Good to know where your priorities lie," he says before rushing towards me and pinning me to a tree by my neck, "Next time I tell you to do something, you do it. That was the deal."
"Okay. I'm sorry. Of course, Nik," I say and he releases my neck.
"Nik?" he asks.
I look past him to see Elijah smiling.
Valentina's POV
"Okay, Jenna. You have a daylight ring. The rest is simple," I say and Alaric gives me a look.
"It's all about control. Moderation. You don't want to be completely cut off from human blood, but you don't want to over do it," I say.
"How do I know what's over doing it?" she asks.
"If their heart starts to slow, that's enough," I say.
"You want her feeding off of humans? Is that such a good idea?" Ric asks.
"Well, no. I don't want her feeding off of humans, but if the situation arises," I say and he nods.
Alaric's phone starts ringing and he answers it.
"Kinda busy. What do you need?" he asks.
"I need your help," Stefan says.
"I'm helping Vali with Jenna. Can it wait?" he asks.
"Damon's dying," Stefan says and Jenna gasps.
"What?" Ric asks.
"Tyler Lockwood bit him. We don't have much time," Stefan says and I grab the phone from Ric.
"What do you need?" I ask.
Genevieve's POV
There's a special screening of Gone with the Wind in the main square that we've been dragged to.
"You brought me to see a girl movie," Jeremy says.
"We had to get out of the house, Jer. This is our three-hour distraction from reality," Elena says.
"By pretending like our lives aren't completely screwed?" Nellie asks.
"We need to do this, okay? Breathe, eat, sleep, wake up, and do it all over again until one day, it's just not as hard anymore," Elena says and sits down.
Jeremy pulls me with him to sit down and Penelope plops down as well.
Caroline arrives with a basket and a smile.
"Hey! There you guys are. Who's hungry?" she asks and sits down next to Elena.
"Are we really doing this?" Jeremy asks and rests his chin on my head.
"Yes, we are really doing this. We are going to take a page from Scarlett. We made it through the war. I know you guys went through hell, so basically it's like Atlanta has burned. And yet, in spite of everything, we persevere," Caroline says, pausing after saying Scarlett.
"Alright," Jeremy says.
Matt rushes over with a basket in his hand.
"Sorry. These cookies took longer than I expected," Matt says.
"You baked?" I ask.
"Uh... Well, wasn't that hard. That little doughboy is my best friend," he says and sits next to Penelope.
"So, you cheated?" Penelope says.
"Woah, now. Don't go throwing such words around," Matt says and Penelope giggles.
"Alright alright. What are we eating?" Jeremy asks.
"Something good," Caroline says.
"You sound like the mothers I hear trying to make jokes," I say and Jeremy chuckles while Caroline rolls her eyes at me.
Scarlett's POV
Elijah, Klaus, and I enter Alaric's apartment and I immediately see Stefan.
"Klaus, you're back. Look who decided to come for a visit," Katherine says.
"You just keep popping up, don't you?" Klaus says.
"I need your help... For my brother," Stefan says.
"Well, whatever it is, it's gonna have to wait a tick. You see, I have an obligation to my brother that requires my immediate attention," Klaus says and Elijah looks at Stefan.
"You understand how important family is, or you wouldn't be here. My brother gave me his word that he would reunite me with my own," Elijah says.
"And so I shall," Klaus says and daggers Elijah.
I fake a gasp and look at Klaus with 'frightened' eyes.
Klaus pushes Stefan against a wall and I step forward slightly.
"Now, what am I gonna do with you?" Klaus asks and shoves a stake into Stefan.
"Klaus!" I say.
"Do you feel that? It's scraping against your heart. The slightest little movement and you're dead," Klaus says.
"He's just trying to help his brother," Katherine says.
"The witches said you had a cure. Make me a deal. Just give me the cure, and I'll do whatever you want," Stefan says and Klaus takes out the stake.
Stefan falls on the floor and I rush to him while Klaus walks past me and pours himself a glass of blood.
"Trouble is I don't know if you'd be any good to me the way you are now. You are just shy of useless," Klaus says.
Genevieve's POV
"All this waiting around for news is ruining this movie for me," Caroline says.
Jeremy's phone rings and he answers.
"Alaric. Hey," Jeremy says.
"Tell me you're with Elena," Ric says.
"She went to go see Damon. I thought that's where you were," Jeremy says.
"No, he just escaped. I think he's looking for her, and the cops are after him. Listen, he's in bad shape, Jeremy, so if you find her, get her somewhere safe, okay? I'm on my way," Ric says and hangs up.
"If Damon is off the rails, there is nothing you can do to stop him. Let us take care of it," Bonnie says and I glare at her.
"Look sweetie, Jeremy isn't your little puppy. Considering all he's been through, he's pretty damn capable if you ask me. And you? Oh please. I've known witches with more talent in the tips of their pinkies then you've got in your entire body. Now, Jeremy, come with me. Pene, you and Matt go that way," I say and stand up with Jeremy and look at his face.
The smirk on his face... 'Smug little shit.'
Penelope's POV
I watch Jeremy and Genevieve walk away and I turn to the rest of the group. They all have stunned faces and I chuckle.
"Well shit," I say and burst out laughing.
"You heard the lady. This way, Matty, my dear," I say and grab him and pull him away with me.
We walk in silence before Matt finally speaks.
"I- But I don't- It's just-" he says.
"Yes?" I ask.
"She's so sweet and cute and then it's just BOOM!" he says and I chuckle.
"Yeah... I know," I say and he finally starts laughing.
Scarlett's POV
I leave Stefan on the floor and I walk over to Klaus and steal his drink. He looks slightly annoyed, but I just hop up on the counter and smile at him.
"I heard about this one vampire, crazy bloke, always on and off the wagon for decades. When he was off, he was magnificent. 1917, he went into Monterrey and wiped out an entire migrant village... A true ripper. Sound familiar?" Klaus asks.
"I haven't been that way in a very long time," Stefan says.
"Well, that's the vampire I can make a deal with. That is the kind of talent that I can use when I leave this town," Klaus says.
"If you want Stefan, why'd you need me?" I ask and Klaus winks.
"Oh, you? I've heard stories about you," Klaus says.
"Good, I hope," I say.
"Terrifying," he says with a smirk.
"Katerina, come here," he says.
Katherine gets closer and Klaus grabs her arm before he bites her,
"Aah! Aah! No. No... No. No. No," Katherine screams and I roll my eyes.
Klaus bites his wrist and makes Katherine drink his blood. Her wound heals and Klaus looks at Stefan.
"You want your cure? There it is," Klaus says.
"Your blood is the cure," Stefan says.
"Gotta love Mother Nature," Klaus says and grabs Stefan by his shoulder.
"Now... Let's talk, you and I," Klaus says.
"I'll be right back," I say and rush out of the apartment.
I pull out my phone and make a call.
"Scarlett?" a voice asks.
"I need a favor," I say with a smirk.
Genevieve's POV
"There he is!" I say and point to Damon across the way.
We rush over to him and Jeremy calls out to him.
"Damon!" he says.
"Where's Elena? I need to see Elena now," Damon says.
"Okay. Let's get you out of here first, alright?" Jeremy says and grabs him.
Penelope's POV
Matt and I look in the sheriff's office window and I groan as a deputy enters.
"Damon Salvatore was just spotted outside entering The Grill," he says.
"Wait. You've gotta let me come with you. He's sick. He's... he's not himself," Elena says.
"Keep her here," Liz says and leaves.
"And that's my queue," I say and quickly jump into the office from the window.
"Hello," I say with a smirk.
"Penelope?" Elena asks.
"You can't be in here," the deputy says.
"Sure I can," I say and speed over and knock him out.
"Come on then," I say and jump outside.
Genevieve's POV
Jeremy calls Alaric as we wait with Damon.
"Hey, it's me. I'm with Damon at The Grill," Jeremy says.
Damon speeds off and Jeremy is suddenly shot. I scream and kneel down next to him.
"Oh, God. Oh, God," Liz says as she rushes over.
"I've got a gunshot victim at The Grill. Get the paramedics here," she says into her walkie talkie and I glare at her.
"Get the hell away from me before I rip your throat out," I say through gritted teeth.
Her eyes widen and she jumps back.
Bonnie and Caroline rush over and Bonnie pushes me out of the way.
"Jeremy!" Bonnie screams.
I growl at her and she quickly moves away.
"He still has his ring," Caroline says.
"She's human. The ring won't work on him. Caroline…" Bonnie says.
"I got it," Caroline says and bites her wrist and puts it in Jeremy's mouth.
"Come on, Jeremy. Just drink. Go on, Jeremy. Drink," Caroline says.
"What are you doing?" Liz asks.
"Caroline, he's dead. It won't work," I say through hiccups.
"Genni, what's going on?" Ric says before he sees Jeremy.
"Oh, my God," Ric says.
"Need some help?" a Scottish voice says and I look back to see... David Tennant?
"I've got it," Bonnie says.
"Oh, Genevieve is it? Scarlett's sister?" he asks.
"I- Yeah. Who are you?" I ask.
"Gregory Fallin. Warlock. Seems you've got a bit of a problem," he says.
"Listen. I've got it," Bonnie says.
"So, how about you pick that boy up and we take him to your house and I'll work my magic if you will," Gregory says, seemingly ignoring Bonnie.
"No, no, no, no. You can't move him. This is a crime scene," Liz says.
"Bitch, don't," I say and Ric picks up Jeremy
"Alright, come here, buddy. I got you. I got you," Ric says and Gregory leads us to a brand new Mustang.
Scarlett's POV
Klaus starts putting some of his blood in a vial.
"There it is. You want to save your brother? How 'bout a decade-long bender? And I have big plans for you when we leave this town," Klaus says.
"I'm not like that anymore," Stefan says.
"Well, that's too bad. You would have made a hell of a wingman," Klaus says and pours some blood down the sink.
"Wait," Stefan says.
"Now that's more like it. I want you to join me for a drink," Klaus says and throws him a blood bag and Stefan drinks a sip.
"Finish it. All of it. You do everything I say, and I save your brother. That's the deal," Klaus says and Stefan drinks all of it.
Klaus throws him another blood bag.
"Again," he says and Stefan drinks.
Genevieve's POV
"Is this even possible?" Ric says.
"Course it is. It's pretty simple honestly," Greg says and sits Jeremy's head in his lap on the ground.
He starts chanting a spell and Bonnie looks uneasy.
"I can help. We don't need him," she says.
"No offense, but I don't exactly trust you so," I say and watch Gregory continue chanting.
Jeremy's eyes fling open and I drop to the floor next to him.
"Genevieve?" he asks.
"Jeremy..." I say through tears.
"What happened?" Jeremy asks.
"Liz shot you. Gregory saved you," I say and he looks confused.
"Gregory?" he asks.
"You're welcome," Gregory says.
"Let's get you home," Ric says.
I call Jeremy on Skype when he texts me that he's home.
"Hey. What are you up to?" I ask.
"Trying to figure out what's wrong with me. Feel different, weird," he says.
"Well, you were dead. It'd be weird if you felt normal," I say.
"Genevieve, I, uh... I don't know how to thank you," he says.
"You can thank me tomorrow. And the day after that. And the day after that," I say and he starts laughing, "Good night, Jeremy,"
"Good night," he says and I hang up.
Scarlett's POV
Blood bags litter the room and I look at Klaus.
"You're very cooperative. It's almost as if you're enjoying it," Klaus says and hands Stefan another blood bag.
"No more. Not until you give me the cure," Stefan says.
"Not until we make a deal. It's your choice, Stefan. You can either remain here living your life in Mystic Falls, or you can embrace what you truly are, leave town with me, and save your brother's life," Klaus says and Stefan drinks the blood.
"That's the spirit," Klaus says and picks up the vial of blood.
"Sweetheart..." he says, looking a Katherine.
"Take this over to Damon and come right back," Klaus compels.
She takes the vial and disappears.
"How long should we wait for her?" I ask and Klaus shrugs.
"Not long. She'll go straight there and straight back," he says.
Katherine comes back surprisingly fast and Klaus takes us to the warehouse that he keeps his siblings in.
Klaus is looking down at Elijah in the coffin.
"I suppose, brother, you've been reunited with our family," Klaus says and closes the coffin and looks at the two men.
"Put him with the others. We're leaving town tonight," Klaus says.
"Damon is fine, right?" I ask Stefan as he looks down at his phone.
"Yeah," Stefan says and looks at Klaus, "What is it you really want from me?"
"All will be explained in time. Once we leave this tragic little town," Klaus says.
"Then are we done here? Can we go?" Stefan asks.
"Not quite. You see, I have a gift for you," Klaus says, "Come here, sweetheart. Don't be afraid."
A girl comes over to us and Klaus looks at Stefan.
"See, I wanna make sure you honor our deal... That you'll be of use to me," Klaus says and bites into the girl's neck.
I can feel veins appear under my eyes and I quickly turn around.
"I could have compelled her to behave, but a real ripper enjoys the hunt," Klaus says and releases the girl, who runs away screaming.
Stefan stands there for a moment before speeding away.
"What's wrong, love?" Klaus asks and I turn and look at him.
He smirks at my turned face and steps closer.
"While I remember every kill I made, I remember you making none," he says and I force my face to turn back.
The girl stops screaming and I turn and look at Stefan.
"Now we can go," Klaus says.
"Wait," I say and look at Katherine, "Remember my plan for her?"
"I certainly do," Klaus says with a smirk.
"Come here, kitty cat," I say with a smirk and grab her before speeding away.
I rush into my basement with Katherine in tow and I throw her into a brick wall before pulling a Marcel and hammering a long nail into her ribs. She screams in pain and I smirk in amusement.
"Ruby!" I scream and she's down here in a blink.
"Yes, ma'am?" she asks.
"Brick her in," I say and Ruby nods.
"Same pattern as the other house right?" she asks and I nod.
"Exactly," I say.
"Wait. Brick me in? No! No!" Katherine screams.
"Don't talk," I compel and she is silent.
"Lock the door when you're done," I say and speed out of the room.
"Ready to go?" I ask when I return.
"You actually came back?" Stefan asks.
"I made a deal, Stefan," I say.
"That she did," Klaus says with a smirk.
