Stiles POV

Three hours. Three god damn hours I've been sitting here waiting for Elijah to wake up.

I needed him awake before everyone in the house wakes up. I need to get him out of the house so I can talk to him.

Everyone's panicking because they know that Klaus is actually real. I don't think they believed it until they saw it with their own eyes.

Apparently while I was unconscious Bonnie faked her death when she attacked Klaus, so she is now our secret weapon once again.

I don't understand why Klaus didn't just take me then but this is one way to get my answers. I looked at the dagger in my hand twirling it.

I read the Gilbert journals to make sure it was safe for me to remove them and thankfully it was. I wasn't going to kill myself.

I snapped my head towards Elijah who woke up gasping for air. I rushed over to him, calming him down. "Elijah. It's me. It's Stiles" I whispered trying to calm him down.

"Stiles " He whispered with his eyes wide open. "I-I can't breathe" He gasped.

Oh shit! "You haven't been invited in" I whispered before I helped him out of the house.

"What happened?" Elijah asked looking at me as he stood outside. "Shh," I placed my finger against my lips, pointing upstairs to where Damon, Stefan, and Elena were sleeping.

"I'll tell you everything, but not here. I need to know I can trust you" I told him quietly, trying not to wake everyone else up in the house.

"Can I trust you?" He asked sadly. I smiled and handed him the dagger. "I don't need this" I told him.

"Come, let's go. Here. There's some clothes here for you as well" I smiled handing him a fresh suit and a blood bag.

I drove to the grill, before I said anything. "Klaus is here" Was the first thing I said to him. "He's here?" Elijah asked me. "He's taking over Alaric's body" I chuckled, shaking my head.

I have to admit, I was not expecting him to possess someone, but hey I guess he likes the dramatics.

"Of course he has. It's one of his favorite tricks" Elijah told me. "What else do I need to know? You seem to know him best" I said looking at him.

"I assume the Martin witches are no longer with us?" Elijah asked me, raising his eyebrows.

"Nope. Luka burnt to death, and his dad was killed by Katherine as he tried to take Elena to Klaus, to get his daughter back" I told him truthfully.

"So Katherine was released from my compulsion?" He asked. Geez, just get to the parts I need to know!

"Klaus took her. I just hope she's dead" I told him shrugging my shoulders having a drink. "I doubt that. It's not Klaus' style. Death would be too easy for her after what she did" Elijah mumbled.

"Okay. You say you want to kill Klaus but you still made Katherine pay for betraying him. Why?" I asked intrigued.

"I have my own reasons for wanting Katerina to pay. Just like you do. There was a time... I'd have done anything for Klaus" Elijah answered, looking like he was remembering something.

He told me how Klaus is his brother, and that there's a whole family of Originals. Their father was a wealthy landowner in a village in Eastern Europe, and his mother bore seven children.

"So if Klaus is your brother, why do you want him dead?" I asked confused. "As you know, nothing can kill an Original. Not sun, not fire, not even a werewolf bite. Only the wood from one tree. A tree my family made sure to burn" He started.

"That's where the white oak ash for the dagger comes from" I stated, as I pieced things together.

"Yes. Witches' won't allow anything truly immortal to walk the earth. Every creature needs to have a weakness in order to maintain balance" He told me, like I didn't already know that.

"So if the sun can't kill an Original. Why is Klaus so obsessed with breaking the Sun and Moon curse?" I asked confused, taking another drink.

"Right. The curse of the Sun and the Moon. It's all so... biblical-sounding, don't you think?" Elijah asked smiling at me.

"Are you telling me that the curse is a fake?" I asked shocked. "Myself and Klaus faked the sun and moon curse dating back a thousand years" Elijah told me.

"So what the hell does he want with the moonstone, if there isn't a curse?" I asked confused. "There's a curse just not that one. The real ones much worse... It's a curse placed on Klaus" Elijah told me, as he picked his glass up.

"What's the curse he wants to break?" I asked intrigued. This shit is bloody messed up. "He's been trying to break it for the last thousand years, and Elena is his only hope" Elijah answered.

"Yeah, I know Elena has to die. Just tell me what the curse is" I sighed, taking another drink.

"My family was quite close, but Klaus and my father did not get on too well. When we became vampires, we discovered the truth. Klaus was not my father's son. My mother had been unfaithful many years before. This was her darkest secret. Klaus is from a different bloodline. Of course, when my father discovered this, he hunted down and he killed my mother's lover and his entire family. Not realizing, of course, that he was igniting a war between species that rages until this day" Elijah explained to me.

My jaw dropped. "Species, as in werewolf?" I asked shocked. After his nod I carried on. "So if Klaus was born from a werewolf bloodline, what the hell does that make Klaus? A werewolf? Or a vampire?" I asked confused.

"He's both Stiles. A hybrid would be deadlier than any werewolf or vampire. Nature would not stand for such imbalance of power. Therefore the witches, the servants of nature, saw to it that my brother's werewolf side would become dormant... He wants to trigger that part of him that's a werewolf. If allowed he would sire his own bloodline. He'd build his own race. Endangering not just vampires, but everyone" I stared wide-eyed, to be honest, I feel sorry for him, I lost my magic, just a hundred some years ago and I will do anything to get it back, and he has a side of him blocked, how much is he suffering.

"So because he's a werewolf, I'm guessing that silver dagger won't work on him" I stated. "Nope, the only way to kill him is by the hands of servants of nature themselves," He told me.

"Yeah a witch if she can channel enough power" I nodded, before smirking at him. "What would you say if I told you that we had a witch who's willing to do anything to kill Klaus, and who can channel enough power?" I asked raising my eyebrow.

"I'd tell you that I have a way to save the doppelgänger" He smirked back at me, but I just rolled my eyes. "Well then. I think you should go and see my two brothers and Elena. Tell them they can thank me later" I smirked at them.

"I'll see you soon, Stiles " He nodded at me before leaving.

I stared off into space as I thought about everything I found out today. Klaus is a hybrid. This shit just got a lot more complicated.

I downed the rest of my drink and as I was about to order myself another one, someone came and sat next to me. "Stiles " He stated and as I turned my head, my eyes squinted into slits.

"You" I growled at Klaus's witch, but before I could attack him he started chanting. One of my spells! "Facere cutis ardet spiritus, sentire, et succendatur"

My skin felt like it was burning, but that wasn't what was on my mind. Where the hell did he learn it? It's my damn spell!

"Lovely spell Stiles" He whispered before injecting me with vervain. Enough to knock me out.
