Jeremy's POV
Waking up to a pain in my head wasn't on my to-do list but here I was, I groaned as I sat up, noting that my hands were tied behind my back. I dislocated my shoulders to bring my wrist in front of me before relocating them. I knew where I was thanks to Bianca, she told us what would happen the day before. I was on my way to meet Enzo when Elena approached me, I was trying to avoid her but she was persistent and kept following me, and when she got kidnapped the retard hit me in the head and took me with her.

"Damn it." Getting to my feet, I cursed as I stretched my tensed muscles with my hands still tied.

"Wait, Jeremy?!" I turned to see the diluted version of Katherine, also known as Elena, in the same position I was. "What are you doing here?" Ignoring her I faced the two vampires in the room.

"Okay firstly, hitting someone isn't nice, and secondly, ow!" I glared at them. "Thirdly, you made a huge mistake taking me." I sat on the couch. "I have an enchantress as a sister, a werewolf and a war veteran, weapon-wielding vampire as brothers." While speaking I could feel the panic and anger through our mental link. "All of us are easily angered when any of us are in danger, currently they are pissed, they will find me and they will kill you." I could see Rose and Trevor staring at me intensely. "Call my bluff if you want, we can wait here for a few more minutes to see who's right but something tells me you don't have a lot of time on your hands." As soon as I spoke I saw both of their heads snapped up, looking around the room.

"He's here!" Trevor exclaimed. "He's here Rose, I can't do this." He panicked and I laid on the couch watching him. "I need to get out of here." I tuned them out when I felt Bee pinpointing my location. I was brought back when the sound of intentional heavy footsteps grew closer, a male clad in a black suit that fit him like a glove appeared. He didn't see me at first only Elena and he sped over to her, sniffing her neck as she flinched and tried to back away from him.

"Human, how is this possible?" The male I know named Elijah asked, Bee had made sure to give us a vivid description of each of the originals and I must say she was spot on about this one.

"She's a doppelganger." Rose informed as her partner cowered behind her.

"You know, you could have just listened to her heartbeat from where you were, you didn't need to sniff her." All heads turned to me as I waved my fingers at them. "Forgot about me? I'm hurt."

"And who are you?" Elijah questioned as he made his way towards me.

"I'm Jeremy." My eyes devoured his form when he stood before me. "I do like a man in a suit." I saw his lips twitch into a smile but our moment was ruined by the attention seeker.

"Stay away from my brother!" she yelled.

"Your brother?" Elijah looked between the both of us.

"Yeah, I know such a huge contrast between the two of us." I sat up from the couch "That is because I inherited the good genes and she's adopted." Elena's eyes widened as she stared at me in shock.

"You knew?".

"Oh yeah, for months now before you found out actually."

"Why didn't you tell me?".

"I'm sorry, let me find it in my heart and being to give a shit about you." I took a minute then looked at her with cold eyes. "Yeah, I don't." I felt my family arrive and looked at Elijah.

"If you have something to say or do to those two." I pointed to Rose and Trevor. "Hurry up because my family just arrived and they are pissed."

"Rose pleaded with me for pardon and I granted it to her." He stated as he faced the pair, Trevor's scared expression changed into one of relief. "Unfortunately she never specified who to be pardoned and so." I watched in fascination as the younger male vampire's head was ripped off his shoulders and thrown across the room, I barely registered Rose's scream as I thought of how incredibly sexy and powerful the supernatural being looked at that moment.

"Hey handsome, you might want to stand over here." I called and he raised a brow but stood next to me in a flash.

"WHERE THE HELL IS MY BROTHER?!" Bianca's voice vibrated throughout the empty space, a growl followed after, and soon there were my siblings, Bianca had a visible ring of magic surrounding her, Tyler had his fangs and claws out as his eyes burned a golden color and Enzo had his vampire face out.

"Which one of you had kidnapped my brother for 3 hours?" Ty asked.

"I see one of them is dead already." Bi stated calmly and I knew she was pissed. "Pity." Her head turned to me. "Jer are you okay?".

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"Bianca, oh my god." Elena called, you know I forgot she was even here for a minute. "You have to help me, she wants to give to that guy over there." she cried. "Tell them I'm not Katherine."

"You could never be Katherine." Ty said and Elena smiled. "You're the diluted version of Tatia." I saw Elijah stiffened at the mention of both Doppelgangers he had loved but made no comment.

"Back to you." Instantly Rose was slammed into the wall as Bi walked over to her. "What gave you the right to kidnap my brother, the other one is fine but you made the mistake of taking one of my family members and you will pay." With that Rose's screams filled the building as her body began to desiccate painfully and slowly.

After the desiccation Bee set her aflame, it was at this time that the Salvatore brothers made their appearance, Stefan went to untie Elena while the older Salvatore tried and failed to intimidate us.

"Elena, are you okay?" Damon asked not taking his eyes off us.

"Yeah, Bianca saved me." My sister scoffed. "They wanted to give me to him." She pointed to Elijah.

"I didn't save you, I came for my brother and Elijah." The original narrowed his eyes at her but said nothing. "They could have killed her for all I care." We circled her and I pulled Elijah along.

"Now hold on witchy, we want some answers and since you burned one of the people that kidnapped Elena and the other is decapitated, we need to question suits over there."

"I am not in the mood to play with you Damon." He didn't like that response and sped over to us but in a second the elder brother was on his knees screaming and clutching his head as blood dripped from his nose. "In case you forget, I could kill you right now and be on my way, we are not on the same team." He started to scream more as the pressure built. "I am not Bonnie, I won't be used and there is nothing you can do about it." Her magic surrounded us and in a second we stood in our home.

"Now then, can you tell me how is it that you know my name and why you are looking for me?" Elijah stood a good couple feet away from us, his body tensed, ready for a fight if needed. Oh boy, this is going to take a while.
