"Jeremy! Now!" She heard the doppelganger shout as she grabs the stake from his jacket and throws it towards his brother.

His face still burning from the vervain weakening him and the large knife lodge through his shoulder, he's in a fair amount of pain but for the first time in the entirety of their fight he felt fear. The white oak steak in Jeremy's hands would surely kill him. A thousand years of living in this world and this is how it ends at the hands of a novice hunter and his baby vampire of a sister.

Knowing death was finally coming to him was what terrified him the most but the pain of betrayal rushing to him was greater, knowing his brother may have a part in this entire plan on killing him. It was abominable, excruciating pain. No matter their differences he didn't think Nik would actually want him dead. Yet here he is mere seconds from his death.

The hunter prepared to thrust the stake into his chest but the stake suddenly escapes his grasp and flew towards the figure standing outside their open door.

"Now, that wasn't very nice was it."

Immense relief suddenly surge through him. He looked for the source of the feminine soft yet firm voice with the hint of British accent that surely just saved his life.

There standing in the doorway was a petite young woman with the most captivating eyes he had ever seen. A pair of emerald orbs shining with radiance, large and doe like in amongst delicate white features. Establishing a striking contrast to her mass of curly raven locks reaching her the stake with one hand and looking at it clearly fascinated. She certainly was a vision, his savior.

"Who are you?" Elena shouted on guard and wary with the stranger. Pulling his precious brother at her back.

"My name is Ada." The girl finally strayed his inspecting and curious eyes at the stake and locked at him. Emerald eyes filled with curiosity trailed his face as if looking for a confirmation of something."As for why am I here, I'm here to save the damsel." She said smirking and at the final word she winked at him.

Ada. What a unassuming name for such a creature such as herself. Power and confidence radiated stared at the girl for a moment fascinated by the effect her prescence has made on him. He imagined what he must look like in the moment, face still slightly burned a knife still in his chest leaning against the kitchen counter he felt terribly weak. He remembered what had gotten him into this state in the first place and found Elena looking at him and Ada alternately clearly worried on what's coming next. Jeremy staring at the stake in Ada's hand with such intensity.

Ada met his eyes once again and looked at Jeremy. She pursed her lips, displeased and pressed the stake in her chest closely as if absorbing it overthe black coat she's wearing. "Perhaps it's best to remove temptationfor the moment." And with a blink the white oak stake she's been holding moments before has vanished. She's a witch, he realized. She stepped inside the house towards the middle of the room looking at him then staring at the kitchen utensil buried on his body.

As if this thought awoken him in his daze he suddenly snapped straight, the effect of vervain on him slowly receeding. He grasp the knife on his chest and yanked it free, throwing it at the Elena's chest the exact place on her body that she buried the knife on him only deeper with most of the blade now buried on her chest.

Elena gasp a scream forming on her throat and lurched forward. The scene certainly satisfied him.

"Elena!" Cried Jeremy catching her sister as she fall into her knees.

He stared at the hunter contemplating on how he will make him suffer without really killing him. He could remove his legs after he chopped off his arms he supposed smirking at the thought.

"Niklaus" Ada muttered softly acknowledging a new presence in the house catching his attention.

He found his brother staring at him his eyes clearly filled with worry then relief then it disappeared as if he imagined it. But he did saw it and with hidden relief he realised Nik didn't want him dead. Before he could say anything to his brother he saw him looking at Ada. First with recognition then surprise with a small amount of respect and fear that he was clearly hiding. Interesting, he thought.

"Adamaris" his brother said the name with reverence and familiarity as if greeting an old friend. Greeting the girl with a wary smile.

He stepped towards the hunter determined to finish this while Nik still can't interfere. When he was suddenly flung across the house crashing into the walls of the Gilbert's living room. He heard Nik shout with pain and the witch's voice Bonnie demanding to Jeremy to invite Nik in. He heard a pained groan beside him and found Ada sitting on the ground struggling to get up clearly she got tossed across the room as well.

Standing up he offered his hand to Ada. "Here darling, Thank you by the way." He said helping her up. Smiling as she took his offered hand. Emerald orbs captivated him for a moment when he noticed how warm her hand feels on his own.

...

Bonnie stepped inside the Gilbert's house after he flung Kol and the girl with him across the room. She didn't know who exactly the girl was but seeing her towering over Elena's kneeling figure with a knife stuck to her she figured she was the cause.

"Invite him in." Determined she tried to convey in her eyes that she has a plan on Jeremy's confused face. "Do it."

Klaus overcoming the initial pain she'd given him has finally stood up. Glaring at their figures murder clear in his eyes.

Jeremy looked at her with trust in his eyes. "Come in." He breathed apprehension simmering in his voice.

Bonnie prepared on what to come but she knew what to do.

As Klaus stepped inside the threshold of the house she took a step back running through the house she pulled Elena and Jeremy with her and when Klaus was on the exact place the unknown girl was standing moments before she focused on sending Klaus flying towards the direction his brother was now standing over the fallen figure of the girl.

As soon as Klaus was on the living room with them she sealed the boundary spell that encompassed the living room of the Gilbert's house.

Klaus seething with rage for her actions against him lunged.

Standing tall in front him safe in the knowledge that he wouldn't reach them. Bonnie looked in his eyes with defiance and victory as he tried over and over again to reach them and failed to overcome the wall of boundary spell she had cast.

"Witch, what have you done!" Simmering with rage his eyes cold and wild he glared at them. "How dare you! Do not think for a moment I was not aware of your plans to kill another of my brother. I will kill all of you without blinking." The promise in his voice clear.

Jeremy stepped forward. "You kill us, you'll never get to the cure." Trying to reason with him he continued. "You'll never be able to make any more hybrids."

Klaus looking straight at Elena's answered mockingly "You really think I care for an instant about my bloody hybrids?" Eyes filled with malice. "I want the cure so I can destroy it." He said with finality and derision.

"Aren't you going to introduce me to the witch that has us trapped Niklaus?" The slow, british accented voice drifted across the room attracting her attention.

She walked towards them. Graceful and elegant in her steps. Long corkscrew curls of raven hair surrounded her face. She can't be any younger than her yet there was something ageless and perpetual on her whole appearance. She was beautiful. Incredibly so but her eyes..

Startling and piercing emerald orbs met her eyes across the room.

She froze.

This was a witch. And she was powerful.

Power. Potent and vast was radiating from her.

Raw and pure she could feel the magic surrounding her.

And in that instance realization came that her boundary spell couldn't possibly hold her. She could shatter it if she wants she was no match for such overwhelming power.

As if reading her mind the witch smiled at her tauntingly. Intelligence blazed from her eyes with an inescapable ferocity.

Klaus turned to the girl now standing beside him. "Ada, what a surprise to see you here sweetheart." He smiled at her charmingly.

"Her name Niklaus." The mysterious girl demanded. Eyes never moving from Bonnie's still form.

"Bonnie Bennet" snapped Kol leaning against the back of the couch surveying the scene before him. "'l shall kill you last darling, so you could watch as I dealt Elena and your precious Jeremy his fate." He glared at her with such hatred her mind flashed as she remembered how he tried to kill her earlier at her school.

The girl named Ada tilted her head. "Really? A Bennet, how interesting." She mused. "I knew a Bennet once, a curious little girl named Sheila. Any relation?" she asks the expectation for an answer clear in her voice as as she stared Bonnie down.

Bonnie's eyes widened in surprise. "Grams?" She can't help as the name escape her lips.

"A granddaughter, I suppose I could give you a head start. For Sheila of course and I'll even give you a precious counsel."

She crossed her arms and looked straight to her eyes.

Her face solemn and sincere.

"This path your on, you best be sure it is worth it. You are saturated with dark energy. A dangerous path for any witch. Such darkness. Such power. Its enticing is it not." Her voice has taken on a seductive tilt as she felt the truth resounding on her every word. "But such darkness always have its consequences. A sad and miserable fate is what awaits you if you continue on like this. You better be prepared to pay its price, my dear."

Her throat tightened at the all too knowing glint in emerald eyes, her words resounding in her soul. She was scared. Terrified at what she just heard.

Bonnie didn't know what to say.

She swallowed dryly.

"Now run along and you better be far away because Sheila's granddaughter or not I do not take lightly on being caged."

...

She watched Adamaris as she turned her back on the stricken witch her expression solemn and severe.

His brother Kol watching Ada with undisguised raw heated interest.

Elena pulled the Bennet witch from her trance. "Come on" she muttered softly and with a run they all left the house.

Klaus wondered again what Ada could possibly be doing here. She was the closest thing he has as a friend for decades now but they have not parted on good terms. Last time she saw her she was threatening to turn him into her pet cat if she ever saw him again for the next ten years.

"Adamaris Potter. The immortal witch. To what do I owe the pleasure of this visit?" Beacuse he had no doubt that she came for him. He watched as she walked around the room.

She sat down on the couch gracefully, put her hand on her chest and suddenly the white oak stake was in her hand.

Klaus froze.

Tensing up eying her form warily he looked at the piercing emerald eyes that was gazing at the stake with such fascination and wonder trailing her fingers through the metal that surrounded the wood.

Kol eyed the witch in assesment then with a determined look on his face he plopped down on the couch beside Ada smirking at him.

Kol clearly had gone mad and the Silas story he's been sprouting have put him on deeper insanity than usual, sitting with Ada holding a weapon that can kill him, his brother finally lost his mind. Klaus glared at him about to order him to stay away from the powerful witch Kol have no idea who he was sitting with. Ada's mood was difficult to determine every moment. She could be angry and playful the next.

"Oh relax Niklaus." A slow dark smile pulled crookedly at the corner of Ada's mouth her eyes shining. "I'm not about to murder anyone."

"Where did you get that?" Klaus demanded blue-grey eyes never leaving from the stake she's holding in her hand.

"Nicked it from that hunter that was about to stake your brother in the bloody kitchen." She said casually as if she was telling him she had pancakes for breakfast. "You should be more grateful".

Kol leaned in interest and put his arm on the back of the couch they were sitting on and smiled charmingly at Ada. "I'm beyond grateful darling, tell me how can I repay my savior. What services shall I perform to settle the debt that I owe you." He leaned in suggestively his mouth inches from her ears as he whispered the last sentence.

He saw Ada stiffen at the closeness eying his brother in the corner of her eyes.

"Why?" Klaus wondered. Ada rarely interferes with fights not her own.

"Clearly she cannot let just a handsome piece of man like myself just die. The world would be devastated. I believe it was love at first sight, isnt it darling?" Tapping his fingers on the smooth surface of the back of the couch Kol stretched his legs in front of him and crossed his ankles arrogantly.

Rolling her eyes Ada looked up at him. "Your brother's more obnoxious than you. I did not know that was possible." She said ignoring Kol. "I'll tell you later why. Whats with these metals" she asked fingers tracing the metals on the stake.

"Its lined with magic, made it indestructible." He decided to answer her for the moment knowing he would not get anything from her before her curiosity was sated.

She held the piece of wood at eye level. "Indestructible hmm.." She mused then grasp it with both hands a soft light envoloped it for a second. She smiled then without warning she throws it at him.

Too surprise to move he saw the stake bounce from his stomach and flopped on the floor. Stunned he picked it up and inspected it. It looks exactly the same yet touching it, it felt more rubber than wood.

Laughing loudly Kol's eyes brighten with mirth "That was brilliant. You should have seen your face Nik." His brother teased giving the witch a delighted smile.

"That spell will fade quickly. It is still indestructible. I will think of a more permanent solution." she summoned the stake back into her hands and twirled it in her fingers

"Why are you doing this Ada and why have you come in the first place?" Darkly annoyed at her audacity to trick him.

She smirked at him with amusement. "I just a bought a lovely painting in town. I think it was a snowflake, something about post modernism.."

"Enough Adamaris!" Klaus snapped losing his patience and tired of her games. "Why are you here?"

"Oh fine I'll tell you." Ada sighed, putting the white oak stake down on the table in front of them and leaning on the couch crossing her arms. "You remember Roberto and Carla don't you?"

"Roberto the artist yes, I do not recall the other one." He remembered the painter one of the few vampires that seem to always hang around Ada.

"Of course you don't." She muttered sarcastically. "Anyway there we were enjoying a perfectly nice night watching a movie then the person sitting next to me, Carla suddenly dropped dead. In a few seconds Roberto was gone too. I could not figure out why my friends just suddenly died. Believe me I searched for answers."

"Maybe the movie was too dreadful and they died of dissatisfaction." Injected Kol glaring at the white oak stake in the table in front of him.

He ignored him but he was starting to figure out where Ada's story was going.

Running her hands through her hair. Ada grimaced and sighed softly. "Then news started coming, random vampires all around the world dead the same moment Roberto and Carla did. What did they have in common why them?"

"And then I realized their all connected, all of them from the same bloodline"

"Finn." Klaus said flatly, ending her account of what she was trying to say.

Finally clear on what bought Ada here. He scoffed. "So you are here to what? Keep me from any harm so some of your precious vampire friends of whom I surmise was from my bloodline would be safe from dropping like flies in case I was killed?" He finished with derisive laughter.
