The next day, Phoebe left to go see Klaus and stay with him so he won't do anything stupid, like he always do.

She bought some coffee and grabbed a blood bag from the freezer in her house for Klaus.

When she arrived there, she saw Caroline talking on the phone and Klaus looking like he wants to rip someone head off.

"Here catch." She passed him the blood bag as he caught it and threw her a wink in her way.

She went to the living room and sat on the couch drinking her coffee as he opened the blood bag and drank from it then throw it on the ground, blood smudging his lips.

She smirked knowing she can tease him. So she got up, got closer to him, pressing her chest to his making him wrap his arms around her waist.

She made eye contact with him as placed her thumb on his lip and got all of blood access on her thumb. Phoebe then placed her thumb on his mouth making him open it and suck on it.

She threw him a wink as she sat on the couch and sucked the same thumb making him wanting to kiss every inch of her but not in front of Caroline who just hung up.

Klaus smirks at the blond: "Need my help with anything, love?""Nope." Caroline strides out of the house without looking at Klaus, leaving him looking slightly amused.

Caroline and Tyler walk into the house. Caroline has a laptop in her hands while Tyler has the sword wrapped in a blanket. Klaus and Phoebe are sitting on the coffee table.

"Well, if it isn't old little Lockwood. Come to show how laughably impotent you are against me?" Klaus.

"I'm just trying to help my friends find the cure." Caroline sits on the couch, and Tyler reveals the sword from the blanket: "Found this in your attic."

"And you think finding the sword brings you closer to the cure?" Klaus.

"You tell me. I was playing around with the handle on the ride over, and I found this." Tyler unwraps the leather on the top of the sword, revealing some sort of turning device. 

Klaus gets up and walks over to Tyler: "And what do you think 'this' is?"

Caroline gets up: "It's called a cryptex." Tyler looks at her.

"I've seen The da Vinci Code. You turn the different sides to the different symbols to get the translation on the other side." She turns to the table. "And with the magic of the internet, Elena sent over these." She holds up print-outs of Jeremy's tattoo. "So now all we have to do is cryptex away." She sits down again. "If you happened to want to help, we wouldn't stop you."

"Right. Well, might I suggest using the magic of the internet to purchase an Aramaic-to-English dictionary from your nearest retailer." Klaus smirks.

Tyler turns to Caroline: "What's Aramaic?"

But Phoebe beats her to it and speaks: "It's a dead language. It hasn't been used since, like, biblical times."

"Qetsiyah's native tongue, I'm guessing. You know, even if you had the best dictionary in the world, it could take days to translate." Klaus sits down next to Phoebe. "Perhaps weeks. 'In bas so-teen-too ara-ma-eet.'"

"What does that mean?" Phoebe asks as she raises her eyebrows.

Klaus grins: "'If only you spoke Aramaic.'"
