Surprising Lover (TVDxOC) (Complete)

The Five

Grace and Harper are looking through books about the five, as Stefan and Damon are busy being to proud to talk to each other, until Harper had to leave then Grace leaves with Stefan for Klaus'.

Grace and Stefan walk out of the shadows.
"I was gonna take him, but I figured you went through such trouble to truss him up in your red room of pain."
"It's from the Inquisition. I thought it was a nice touch."
"What'd you get out of him?"
"Not enough. He's mum about the Council fire and he's not saying anything about this greater evil we're all supposed to be shivering over. What brings you snooping?"
"Well, I can't say it in front of him. As I'm sure you've figured out, our friend here can't be compelled."
"[To Connor] You're full of mysteries, aren't you?"
"I told you, I don't know anything."
"Thankfully, I know plenty."
Klaus walks out of the room and gestures for Stefan to come with him.
"Shall we?"
Stefan stares at Connor for a few more seconds and they follow Klaus out. Klaus shuts the doors to Connor's prison room and turns to them.
"So, what's with the home invasion?"
"Damon said you knew something about this guy. Now, I should have figured out that you were up to something when you healed Elena from the werewolf poison without asking for anything in return. And Grace and a girl named Harper knows something."
"I was feeling benevolent."
"You're never benevolent. Who is this guy? What's the Five?"
"So many questions."
"It's a good thing I have nothing to do today, except get answers out of you."
Stefan sits down and looks at Klaus.
"Fine. You might actually be useful in persuading my sister to cooperate."
Klaus walks away from the door and into the room.
"The brotherhood of the Five was a group of highly skilled vampire hunters. We crossed paths with them in the 12th century Italy. My siblings and I had followed the Normans as they conquered the South. Feeding, turning people as we went. But with the bloodshed came exposure."
"So these hunters have been around for nine hundred years?"
"That we know of I did tell you this."
"Apparently. Though our friend in the other room is the first I've seen since then. Kind of makes you wonder what they've been up to all these years."
"And Rebekah had a thing with one of them?"
"Oh, she didn't just have a thing. She fell in love with him. He told her all his secrets. Which I will gladly share with you provided you do one thing for me."
"And what's that?"
"Get Rebekah over here. She's being stubborn and hateful. I need to make peace with her. [He gets up.] I want her to give me some very important information about the hunter which she won't do, unless she believes we've made up."
Stefan gets up.
"And what's in it for me?"
"Just get her here and I'll tell you. Oh, and Stefan, trust me when I say this; that hunter in there holds the answer to all your prayers."
Grace and Stefan leave the house.
"May I just say we can't kill him."

Grace joins Stefan and Rebekah.
"Klaus wants me to fake peace with you, so you'll talk about the Five."
" Yeah, I bet, but don't help him, he'll just betray you. It's what he does."
"Alright, well, forget him. Help us instead."
"Why? You hate me more than he does."
"Because I want to figure out what he's up to."
 "And plus we can give you the one thing he won't."
"And what's that?"
"A clean slate."
"She's not saying that I'm willing to forgive you for what you did to Elena, but I'm willing to set it aside and start over."
"Why would you do that?"
"Because, you're obviously not leaving town anytime soon and I'm just looking for a way we can all get along. Plus you can't be too happy wandering around school with no friends."
"Well, what if I don't care what you or anyone else thinks?"
"Well, I'm pretty sure that you care what Matt, over there, thinks. So, maybe I can talk to him about a clean slate too."

Klaus is standing next to Connor who is still chained to the torture device. Connor groans.
"You feeling alright, mate? Are the shackles too tight? Welcome home, sister."
He turns his head and looks at Rebekah, Grace and Stefan who enter the room.
"Is this a trick? How do you know he's one of the Five? Where's his bloody tattoo?"
"Oh, the tattoos aren't visible on this lot like they were on the last. Let's eat."
Klaus walks out of the room. Rebekah follows. Grace, Stefan, Rebekah, and Klaus are all sitting around a table. A pretty girl is serving them food.
"Thank you, my lovely."
Grace nods her head at the girl. The girl walks off.
"I could kiss the Council for burning up all the vervain in town. They made my life so much easier. Rebekah, love, eat your veggies."
"I'm not eating until you apologize."
"For which indiscretion? There have been so many."
"You broke my neck."
"You threw away Elena's blood so I can't make any more hybrids."
"Because you took me for granted."
"That's what big brothers do, sweetheart!"
"Let me just name the million other people I'd rather be having dinner with right now."
"[mouths] Rude we are meant to be best friends."
"[mouths] We still are, aren't we?"
"[mouths] I'm just playing."
"Alright, fine. I'm sorry. I often forget how delicate you are. Forgive me?"
"I'll take it under consideration."
"Okay, good. Now, why don't you tell me about Rebekah's hunter?"
"Right, Alexander. Nice chap foregoing the obvious issues. He was looking for creatures of the night which is why we felt quite safe around him wearing our daylight rings."
