Our Inner Demons {Klayley Sequel}

When Silence Wears Thin

[Hayley]

I groaned loudly and dramatically slumping over in the rolling chair. Currently, I was in another part of this gigantic house by myself. Everyone had errands and left me alone.

Though Klaus thought it would be funny to leave me a loyal witch on our side. Honestly I don't trust her. She's always there even when I don't notice her. I stood up and walked into the kitchen. One of the good things about pregnancy is getting to eat sweets. I smiled from ear to ear taking out food from the fridge. First I took out ice cream sandwiches then some granola and milk. I took two ice cream sandwiches and put them in a bowl. I smashed them with a spoon then poured the granola and milk over them.

I walked over to get a spoon and turned back to see the witch. I gasped at her appearance and rolled my eyes. "Listen witch. I don't know who you are and I don't care. Stop doing that. I'm going upstairs and I'm going to stay there. So stop following me." I pointed my spoon at her before going upstairs with my food. I smiled as I laid back in bed and turning on the T.V. I gasped seeing some cartoons coming on.

Scooby-Doo. I love this show. It makes me laugh.

I stayed upstairs for another hour before Klaus got home. "Hayley!" I heard him call and sighed. "Upstairs!" I yelled and heard him coming up the stairs. I heard the door open but didn't look. I heard the rustling of bags and turned to see him with bags. "Ooh! What's in the bags!? More snacks. You go through them quite fast, love. I also got some clothes from Rebekah. Klaus, tell her thanks but I have enough."

I said getting up. I took both bags from him and took out the box of animal crackers. "She's been shopping as if I'm 5 months pregnant. I'm not. Only 3. How is it so fast anyway?" Klaus asked and I shook my head munching on the crackers. "I think it's because we're both hybrids and I think it has to do with the fact that you're also technically part witch.

Oh. Speaking of witches, hiring that witch downstairs to babysit me is not cool." Klaus froze and I turned to him. "Hayley what are you talking about? I don't trust any witches but Freya and Davina to come around you, and both were busy today. So you're saying you didn't hire anyone? No." He told me and I frowned. "No witch knows where we are. So either they figured it out or I'm seeing ghosts."

I said and walked out the door but gasped seeing the witch again. Klaus came to stand by my. "See! Don't you see this witch!?" I asked but Klaus shook his head. "Hayley no one is there. What are talking about? I'm seeing someone Klaus. Either she's a witch or something but she just pops up and watches me. I don't know who the hell she is but she seems...friendly. Friendly? I don't think so." I turned to Klaus, still staring at the witch.

"Klaus, if it wanted to do something, wouldn't it already have done so? It's been with me all day, just watching me. It hasn't talked or anything. Just popped up around me."

I told him, motioning to the woman that he couldn't see. He looked me over and then sighed. "Hayley are you sure you're okay? Of course I am. I actually feel very good. Maybe it was that breakfast. Hayley I'm serious." He snapped and I glared.

"And I said I'm fine. It's probably just apart of he pregnancy. We'll just ask Freya. For now, let's just ignore it." I said going back into our room to snack on crackers and ice cream. I mixed both together and Klaus pretended to gag. "You are so disgusting. I'm three months pregnant with mood swings and odd cravings. Shut up." I pointed my spoon at him before scooping up some ice cream and eating it. "Omg. It's so disgusting but so good." I said happily as Klaus just watched.

Then, he straightened and came over kissing my forehead. "Alright now, I have to leave again but I'll be back in a couple hours. Fine by me. But can you at least call Rebekah to come over? I'm lonely. Of course." He smiled at me before leaving the room. Then the witch walked straight in. "I don’t suppose you talk." I said and she just stared at me. I sighed and shook my head. "Course you don't. You're a ghost." I said to myself going back to my cartoons.

[Third Person P.O.V]

It's been 30 minutes since Klaus' departure and Hayley was bored. She laid across her bed, scrolling through social media when she saw Rebekah was calling her. "Hayley. Good. I wanted to tell you-,"

The door opened downstairs and Hayley smiled. "That you're here? What took so long?" She jumped up still on the phone and ran downstairs only to stop. That was not Rebekah. In fact there were 6 of them and they were big.

"Hayley run! I'm driving as fast I can!" Rebekah yelled loudly and the men heard the feedback. They turned to her and 2 rushed forward. Hayley kicked them down the stairs, but they got back up grabbing her leg. She grunted as she slipped and fell dropping her phone. The two began to grab Hayley making her screamed loudly. "Let go of me you-," they silenced her with their hands so she bit them. She kicked them off her and grabbed her phone dashing off the stairs. She ran into the kitchen and they surrounded her.

Rebekah was still on the phone. "Rebekah! Hurry!" Hayley said as she three glasses at them and then threw bowls. Then she grabbed the plant and tossed it. They got hit and covered their eyes. Hayley ran downstairs and hid. She pulled Rebekah up to her ear panting. "Hayley are you hurt? No. But I'm losing ground. I'm in the basement." She said and held her breath hearing footsteps. She turned her phone off and peeked out. Three men this time. She waited until they walked past until she jumped out. Using a nearby pan, she hit one of them, alerting the other two. She knocked their heads together and ran off and up the stairs. She screamed feeling something grabbing her leg. She looked down and saw one of the men.

She grit her teeth and kicked until he let go. Then she ran up into the kitchen. While the men were still inside, she ran outside but two were waiting. They grabbed her arms making her drop the phone. They stepped on it, breaking it. She screamed and kicked at them yelling for them to let her go until she knocked her head against one of theirs. She used that leverage to pull one arm free and punch the other in the face. She dropped from their hold and ran but then, she tripped and fell sideways into the pool.

The water rushed into her lungs, and she couldn't breath. She came up to the surface and tried to reach the edge but couldn't. She was drawing. She moved her arms frantically until she reached the side of the pool. She used that to help her and went to the other end. Hayley got out shivering and holding her cold and wet body. She ran into the trees seeing them still following. She wouldn't be able to outrun them. Hayley knew that. So she used her skills to her leverage.

She stopped and climbed a tree. She sat on a branch, panting. Then she stopped hearing the crunch of leaves. She pressed herself to the tree waiting for them. She saw all 6 of them. Just as they passed her, she dropped to the ground. Hayley pushed up the nearest stick and used it. She hit the first one upside their head making them fall to the ground. She turned to the second kicking him square in the chest, getting him to stumble.

Then Hayley picked up another tinier stick and threw it into his throat. She watched as the first stood back up, and she raised the stick again. She hit him with it again, this time making him slam into a tree. She bashed his head in until he was dead on the ground. She turned to the other four and dropped the stick. That was her mistake.

The third one raised a crossbow and shot her in the shoulder. She cried out and stumbled at the impact. Examining it she saw something black on the arrowhead. She struggled through the pain and pulled it out.

Hayley gripped it in her hand and looked forward. Then she ran towards them. She took the crossbow at the man's hands and threw it to the ground. She took the arrow and shoved it into his arm then snapped his neck. She turned to the rest and began to attack in a feral manner. She snarled at one and pounced on him. The adrenaline roared loudly in her ears.

Hayley sank her teeth into his flesh, drinking from him. With every gulp, she got stronger. When she drunk him dry she tossed him. Hayley roared at them, blood coursing through her. She ran forward and snapped another's neck. Then she turned to the last one snarling. Before she could kill him, his body went stiff. Then he dropped, a person behind him with his heart in their hands.

It was Rebekah. Hayley was still high off the adrenaline and blood. Rebekah noticed. "Come on Hayley. You need some rest. No! I need blood. I want blood." Hayley said the adrenaline spiking. She was itching to bite into something and drink it. Rebekah nine that look all too well.

"Let's get you inside." Rebekah led her to the door and just as Hayley stepped through the threshold, she passed out cold in Rebekah's arms.
