Hunters of Life

28. Things are about to get serious...

"Who was it?" Damon asked me when I put down the phone again.

"Klaus." He's worried and I feel I was a little rough on him. It's not his fault that I'm confused.

"Are you okay?" He asked getting out of the bed and putting his boxers on.

"Peachy!" I paused. "Do you think I was too rough on him?"

"Considering what he has done to us? No. To you? Yeah." He thrown me his shirt and I put it on. I got up from the bed and walked up to the bathroom. Damon followed me.

"Can I use your toothbrush?" I asked. He nodded. I picked it up and put the toothpaste on top of it and started brushing my teeth.

"I think you should go back. You said that their mom was back maybe they need help." I spit.

"I'm weak Damon. I wouldn't be any help to them." I started brushing it off again.

"Only your presence would make a difference. Look you can't just run away. You have to work things out with them. Believe me when I say, you should go and make the right decision." I spit again. I cleaned my mouth. And passed Damon the toothbrush.

"I understand what you're saying. I'm just afraid I can't choose. I can't hurt them. They didn't chose to have me in their family and I don't think I'm good enough for them." Damon spit.

"You're actually too good for them." I caught Damon looking at me with that look.

"Stop eye raping me." I said and walked back to the room. I heard the water run and Damon walked back to the room.

"You're just too pretty for me not to." He came closer. "I was dying to do that for a while."

"Have sex with me?" I asked astonished. He placed an hand on my face.

"Yeah. You were always so witty and one of the few people that actually cares for me. And I couldn't ask for better sex buddy." I knocked on his arm playfully. He hugged me. "I'm glad you're my best friend."

"I'm glad too. Now just don't tell Elena... Please..."

"God no! I won't."

"Okay so... Do you think I should go back to New Orleans?"

"I think you should do what's best for you. And if that means going back there to that family... I think you should go."

"Okay thanks babe." I hugged him again and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"Do you need ride?" He asked.

"I do. But first I might need to find my clothes." Damon vamp speeded and he stopped in front of me with my clothes in hand. "Thanks."

"Go get ready. I'll be down stairs." He vamp speeded again and he was already dressed.

"Thanks D." I muttered hopping out of the car.

"Be careful kid. If you need anything please call."

"I will." He waved and drove off. I walked up to the Mikaelson loft. "Hello? Is anyone here?" I walked up to Klaus' office but no one was inside. "Klaus? Elijah?"

"They're not here." I turned around and found Finn.

"Finn, good to see you again. Where are they? I need to talk with them."

"I'll take you to them." He started walking out of the building and I followed. We were silent. I don't feel comfortable around Finn, he gives me some shivers. And the bad kind of shivers. We walked into on of the sanctuaries in the cemetery. Finn gestured for me to go inside. Instantly my eyes dropped upon Klaus and Elijah chained up to the ceiling unconscious.

"Oh my God!" I rushed to Klaus. "What the hell have you done with them?!"

"They are just sleeping." A female voice crossed my hearing. I turned around and saw Esther smiling at me. "Glad you could join us sweetheart." She said.

"What do you want?" I asked bitterly getting up from near Klaus and walking slowly towards her.

"You." She says simply like it was obvious.

"Okay then. You can take me but you have to let them go." I said stopping a few meters ahead of her.

"No can do sweetheart. I need your blood to take them down."

"Why?"

"Because you're the reason they found their humanity again." She paused examining my face and then continued. "You're the link between their vampirism and their humanity. You're the one that can kill them."

"Kill them?" I asked loudly. "Kill them?! You wanna kill your own kids?" I yelled. Tears threatening to spill from my eyes but I held them I need to be strong. For them.

"You can choose who to kill first." No, no, no... This isn't happening. "I'm going to give you time to decide. They'll be awake soon." She turned around and left with Finn and locked the door behind her. I ran to the door and tried to break it down as it was an old door. But nothing moved. I walked up to the wall and sat against it. This can't be happening. I'm not going to kill the most important people in my life. I refuse to. This isn't right. We need to find a way.
