I am Logan Fell

The Tribrid

A/N: There may be some mild Legacies references. You can still understand this chapter even if you haven't seen Legacies. With that, Let's dive into this chapter.

She was choking me out as it pained like a bitch. All I could muster was a timeout gesture with both my hands.

"Ok. So what is with vampires wanting to choke my neck?" I inquired Hope as I rubbed the spot on my mid neck where she choked me.

"You! You killed Alaric!" Hope was crying. I mean both the types of crying. Yeah she was shouting and all teary-eyed.

"Thank You for saving me from this guy" I pointed at Damon and continued "But who the hell is Alaric?"

"You're lying. Your heart rate is elevated" Hope had a look that could pierce through my soul.

Great. So full confession. I have this embarassing crush on Hope. That combined with my lying did not really help my heart.

"Ok. I'll tell you whatever you need to know. Just not in this house" I tried to reason with her.

"No. You're gonna tell me everything right now. Let's start with how the hell are you still alive?" Her tone was very clear that she was in control here.

My attempt at reasoning with her failed. I decided to do something that could possibly break the timeline even more. What? come on! I mean Hope being here obviously means that the timeline is screwed anyways.

"Hope.." I began as her eyes widened

"How the hell do you know my name?" The Tribrid was clearly caught off-guard.

"Let me be very clear about something. I did not kill Alaric. As for how I know your name, I am serious when I say that I'll tell you whatever you need to know. Just not in this house. We can go to some other place preferably my house." I tried to reason with her.

She had a thoughtful expression on her face and then she finally accepted. Meanwhile, Damon came back to consciousness. Hope and I fled the scene. She duly took me to my house and had a tight grip on my hand before I could enter.

I understood what it was about. So, I invited her into the house. To our bloody surprise, the Sheriff and the mayor were in the house.

"Logan! Where the hell have you been? and who's this? " Sheriff was in her own interrogative form.

Well this was an annoyance. The timing was not exactly ideal. Only good thing about this whole meeting was that Elizabeth and Richard die before Hope fully grows into a teenager as per the TVD universe canon.

"This is Andrea. A distant cousin to me. Andrea can you go into that room?" I gestured my hands towards a random room. I have no idea of the places in this house. It was all a little too confusing.

Hope had an annoyed and insulted look on her face but then she went inside.

I sighed in relief. Now back to the annoyances.

"You know Grayson Gilbert? Elena's dad" I started.

"Yeah. I was close friends with Miranda" Elizabeth spouted out a straight-up fact.

"Yeah. But did you also know he was researching on vampire blood?" I am probably gonna regret this but there was no other way to escape.

Elizabeth and Richard's eyes went wide. "How do you know that?" They questioned me in a chorus.

"I am a journalist. I have my sources." I said in a matter-of-fact tone.

"That still does not explain how you're all healed" They again replied in unison.

Oh no. I am in too deep now. I had forgotten about the part where Meredith got in trouble with the council because of vampire blood in a later season. I was now frozen. I might get into trouble for this. Meanwhile, Hope was standing at the back of both the older people who were currently annoying me.

"That has gone on for long enough don't you think? Ad Somnum" She rescued me from my current predicament with a sleeping spell.

"I really wish you would have done it first" I told her.

"You treated me like a kid. So, I decided leaving you hanging would serve you right" she replied but there was a little bit of a teasing tone.

Atleast her humor is back. This is a good sign. But nothing ever stays good in this universe. There was a big log of wood that stabbed me right on my gut. Thankfully, Sheila's protection spell was still intact. So, the wood luckily did not pierce me. But it still pained like hell.

"Logan! You piece of shit! Come out!" Damon Salvatore screamed at the top of his lungs. Stefan and Lexi were also there along with him.

Wait! Stefan and Lexi? It must be Stefan's birthday tomorrow. If I remember correctly, I am already in season 1 episode 8. Finally something to keep track of.

"So can you do the same thing again for them?" I begged Hope as things have clearly gone out of hand and have become too confusing.

Hope was now smirking. Then within a second she was in front of the three unwanted house guests and chanted "Ad Somnum"

Then she chanted "Invisique" effectively making the bodies of Damon, Stefan and Lexi invisible.

I had to now open up to Hope regarding my situation but before that I remembered an important detail.

"Hope, can you do a privacy spell before we start talking? This is really important. You know why." I was being paranoid and safe at the same time.

"We need a burning sage for that. Do you have any?" Hope questioned me.

"Well Sheila Bennett had the candle. Whatever, it is still a candle right?" I was still as idiotic as ever.

Hope was looking at me very annoyed. I am guessing witches get pissed off when you are dismissive of their craft. She was still 1/3rd witch I guess.

"Ok. I am sorry. We have to get the 'sage' from Sheila or else we can go to New Orleans. But I doubt we have time to go to New Orleans." I apologised and rambled some unnecessary information. I was trying to save myself from Hope's wrath which I am guessing was reasonably successful as the annoyed look on her face disappeared.

Meanwhile, I got a phone call from Sheila. She had promised to call me if she found anything about me going back home.

"Hello, Sheila!" I greeted her as I attended her call.

"I found something. Please come to my home at the earliest" Sheila requested my presence. I could sense the urgency in her tone.

Hope had obviously overheard the conversation. Super-hearing and all.

"So, can you take me to Bonnie Bennett's house? We can get the sage and I'll be able to explain you" I tried to spin it as something beneficial for her but it was actually beneficial for me. I don't care about explaining things or about the fact that Alaric's possibly dead. I just wanted to go home at this point.

Hope thought for a long time and then agreed. Within a minute, we were in front of Sheila's house as Hope carried me there.

"Now Hope be far enough but within audible range .. " As I was talking with her, the door opened.

"Hello!" Elena greeted with a smile but there was something evil in her smile. Oh wait. Not again. This was Katherine. Her hair was more wavy than Elena. Yes, there was at least hair style differences between the two doppelgangers. Otherwise I don't know what I would do.

But before I could even blink, She ran her hands into Hope's breasts, removed her heart and squished it. Hope's body with a gaping hole in her heart region now fell down. The blood from Hope's heart fell on my face and my entire body.

Behind Katherine, I was now able to see that Sheila was dead and was surrounded by a pool of blood in her house.

But before I could think of anything, she was in front of me.

I am so dead.

A/N: And Katherine is here. Now how the hell is Katherine more faster and stronger than Hope? To find that out, stay tuned for the next chapter. Also, this turned out to be a marginally longer chapter. Thank you so much for reading it patiently.
