Surprising Lover (TVDxOC) (Complete)

The Birthday

A woman walks outside the house from the kitchen door.
"Rudy! [Whistles.] Rudy. Come on! It's too hot to make me come looking for you."
She bends down and picks up a toy. When she turns around Klaus suddenly appears in front of her.
"I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to scare you."
"Can I help you?"
"Yeah, my car hmm, my car ran out of gas a couple of miles back. Eh I feel like I've been walking forever yours is the first house I come to so I was just hoping I could use your phone?"
"Don't you have a cell phone?"
"Huh, yeah...[Pulls phone from pocket.] Battery died. Look, I promise I'm not a serial killer I just wanna use your phone."
"[Sighs.] Sure."
"Soo, I can come in?"
"No, I'll get the phone and I'll bring it out to you."
"[Annoyed.] I thought you country folks were supposed to be more trusting."
"I'm from Florida."
"Well, that explains it. [He grabs her throat and compels her.] Now show me a little southern hospitality. Sweet pea."
In the kitchen another woman is frying food and walks over to the counter with the frying pan.
"I bet you a hundred dollars that dog ran off to a house with air conditioning."
She turns around and sees the first woman and Klaus entering the kitchen. Klaus is holding the nape of her neck with one hand. The first woman is sobbing.
"What's going on?"
"Please don't be alarmed. I was told Ray Sutton lives here."
"He's almost never here. He's on the road mostly."
"But I expect he makes it home, once a month. That's what I thought. Where is he now? [She doesn't answer.] If I have to make you tell me it's going to be infinitely more painful for you. Hmm. [He smiles.]"
The other woman runs out of the kitchen and opens the front door, but Stefan is standing in the doorway.
"Aaaah!"
Klaus and the first woman come up behind her.
"I love it when they run!"
"[Gives up.] He's in Toll. It's near the border. A bar called . It's on Highway 41."
"Thank you my love. [He touches the first woman's hair.] Now, may my friend come in?"
"[Crying.] Yes."
The other woman looks terrified and Stefan goes in. Klaus pushes the first woman to Stefan.
"Kill this one quickly. [Looks at the other woman.] And make that one suffer. I'll be in the car."
Klaus leaves with a grin and the women are crying.
"Please don't!"
Stefan just looks at her and transforms. He bites her, and she screams. The other woman screams too. Outside the house, Klaus is walking over to the car, smiling and get in with Grace.
"When can I get a turn to hurt some one."

Inside Ray walks up to the bar.
"What's up Ray?"
"Hey Red, get me a beer."
Klaus comes up next to Ray.
"Ray? Ray Sutton?"
"Who wants to know?"
"I've been looking everywhere for you. 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."
"I think I'll be going."
He tries to go but Grace stops him.
"Not so fast mate. You only just got here, now your type are very hard to come by."
Ray tries to walk the other way but he bumps into Stefan who is standing there and stops him.
"I wouldn't do that."
He pushes him back to the counter.
"Vampires."
You're swifty swift Ray! Yes! My friend here is a vampire. He compelled everybody in the bar so don't look to them for any help. I however, I'm something else, a different kind of monster. I've got some vampire, I've got some wolf. And our woman friend is vampire and witch.
"You what?"
"A hybrid Ray, We're both. You see I want to create more of me. Now you being the first werewolf that I've come across in many a moon, pun intended Ray! I need you to direct me to your pack. So, where can I find them Ray?"
"You can't compel me, it won't work."
Stefan starts scratching his head, Klaus looks at him and he nods. Stefan turns around and takes out something out of his back pocket.
"(To the bar man.) Can you bring out the darts please? (To Ray.) Tell you what Ray, We're gonna play a little drinking game, something I like to call truth or wolfsbane."
Grace pulls out a pouch of wolfsbane, pours it into her hand, crushing it with her fingers.
"Oh, this is gonna be fun Ray."

Ray is chained to the wall, and has darts in his body. He's in a lot of pain. Stefan is sitting at the table across the wall and is stirring a glass of a drink with wolfsbane in it with a dart end. He takes it out and throws it at him. The dart hits him. Klaus is just sitting next to them and watching. Grace is practicing her magic. Everyone else is acting as though nothing unusual is going on.
"Ray, you can end this right now. Just tell me where your pack gathers for the full moon."
"I can't."
"I know, I know. You live by code and all that, but see he's not gonna let me stop until you tell me. And I do whatever he says so, that's the way it goes around here."
A woman walks over to Klaus.
"Hello mister Klaus. I have some more information for you. (Stefan hears her and walks over.) You told me to tell you if I saw anything. (Stefan is eavesdropping.) I saw the guys spotted Damon at the farm house."
"Well, thank you Claudine. You'll just tell your friends to keep up the good work or they're gonna watch her."
The girl walks away and Stefan comes up to Klaus and Grace.
"My brother still on our trail?"
"He's getting closer, I'm gonna have to deal with that."
"(He grabs Klaus's arm.) No, no, no! Let me handle it."
"Why should I let you leave?"
"Cause, you'll know I'll come back."
"Do I?"
"You saved my brother's life; I'm at your service."
"Ah, you sound so tedious and indentured. Aren't you even having the least bit of fun? (He points to Ray with a big smile.)"
"I'll make sure that my brother doesn't bother us any more. (Then Stefan walks away.)"

Ray is lying on his back on a pool table.
"Okay, it's a three step process, Ray. This is step one. I want you to drink from my wrist."
"I already told you where to find the pack. What more do you want from me?"
"Have you been listening to a word I've been saying, Ray? I have great plans for you."
He cuts his wrist and makes him drink his blood.
"You'll thank me for it later, huh. There we go, attaboy!"
Stefan arrives.
"What are you going to do now?"
"It's time for step two, Ray."
He twists his neck, killing him and looks at Stefan. Stefan looks on unemotionally.
"You're back."
"Did you doubt me?"
"Not for a second. I knew you'd pass the test. You still care for your brother, for your old life."
"Nah, I don't care about anything anymore."
"You put on a good show Stefan. I almost believe you. Let's hope, for your brother's sake, he does. You never stop caring about family, do you? But, every time you feed, the blood makes it easier to let go."
"Klaus while we wait for Ray can I do something?"
"What is is?"
"Perform something."
"Sure why not, What do you think, Stefan?"
"Sounds Great."

Everybody claps when Grace finishes.
"Well done Grace."
"Thank you Klaus."
"Amazing Gracie."
"Liza, Angelica?"
"Nope guess again."
"Emma and Harper."
"Who is she talking to?"
"The voices of course Stefan."
"Right forgot about that."
