⤷ the birthday

☾
[3x01]

The stages of grief... denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. Lyndsey Rivers had been stuck on anger and depression for her whole summer. She had always been told that your summer before senior year should be full of parties, spending time with friends, not going  on a crazy killing spree with a psychotic hybrid and an out-of-control ripper vampire.

Lyndsey had put all her emotions into destroying the lives of others, it hadn't been easy for her to go through these last couple of months. She wished more than anything she was at home in bed and not moving from that spot. Yet at the same time she was thankful to be away, Klaus even though he was a horrible person had been a good partner in crime.

He was a good distraction, for the heartbreak she felt. She missed her mom more than anything in the world, she missed her smile, she missed her laugh but most of all she missed the feeling of Cassandra's hand in hers. Stefan had been no help, he was moody and mean all the time, it was easy for her to say she wished anyone else was here.

The one thing that was still a mystery for her was where on earth Elijah was, all she hoped was that he was finally happy with his family. The topic was avoided by both Lyndsey and Klaus, the only thing she knew was that he begged Klaus to not add her into his new line of hybrids unless she asked.

Other than that her nights were spent trying to quiet her sobs, thinking about who Klaus and Stefan would kill next. Thinking about what her friends were doing back home, even though she was not on the best of terms with Elena she wished she would be with her on her birthday.

The plan for today was to finally find a wolf pack, Lyndsey and Stefan were both extremely nervous considering Elena was still alive.

Lyndsey spotted a man sitting at a bar, a beer sliding toward him. Once she heard the name it was time for her to go in, he was sipping on his drink as she walked beside him. Her sweet but strong voice perked his interest, "Gin and tonic please." She slipped into the barstool, Ray's eyes were locked on the young girl. She flipped her curled newly deep brown hair, her chocolate brown eyes looking at him.

"Did I take someone's spot?" she asked the man that they were most likely about to destroy the life of. He quickly shook his head and had a large grin on his face, "That's on me." Ray yelled to the bartender.

"So what brings you to Tennessee, darling." she gagged at the pet name he used but also frowned at it because of Elijah. "You actually Ray." She smiled but his face dropped when he heard Lynn speak his name.

The man started to get up and walked away but Lyndsey quickly caught his wrist and dug her claws in. She had become extremely good at the art of flicking out her claws thanks to Klaus.
Ray gasped at the feeling of his crimson blood dripping down his arm, he turned and was met with a smirking Lyndsey.

"I've been looking everywhere for you." The hybrid's voice boomed across the bar, "We started in Florida, Pensacola. I met a young chap there who you used to work with before you moved to Memphis, now he directed me to two lovely young women. And they led me here, to you."
