The next morning Rose, Stefan, Arabella and Damon were sat in the parlour when someone knocked on the door, Damon went to get it and a minute later Elena walked in, gasping at the sight of the vampire who kidnapped her "You"

"We'll explain everything, just come on" Arabella lead them into the living room, where Elena at the sofa and Rose in front of her, telling them everything she knew about Klaus, some of it being wrong, but its fine

"Okay, you have to understand I only know what I've picked up over the years and I don't know what's true and what's not true" the older vampire told them while pacing "It's the problem with all this vampire crap but Klaus, I know he's real" True

"Who is he?" Elena asked

"He's one of the originals, he's a legend" Damon explained, raising his eyebrows to add dramatic effect, Arabella scoffed

"You didn't even know who he was yesterday"

"From the first generation of vampires" Stefan added

"Like Elijah?"

"No" Rose denied "Elijah was the easter bunny compared to Klaus. He's a foot soldier. Klaus is the real deal" sort of true

"Klaus is known to be the oldest" Stefan said, making Arabella roll her eyes, that's wrong

"Okay, so you're saying the oldest vampire in the history of time is coming after me?" Elena sussed, kind of true

"Yes"

"No"

"What they're saying is" Damon started "I mean if what's she's saying is true..."

"Which it is" Rose interrupted

"And you're not saying it so I don't kill you"

"Which I'm not"

"Then we're looking at a solid maybe"

"Look, Elijah's dead, right" Arabella scoffed, because, once again, he was wrong "So no one else even knows that you exist"

"Not that you know of"

"That's not helping" Damon scolded

"Look, I've never even met anyone who's laid eyes on him" lies "I mean, we're talking about centuries of truth mixed with fiction. We don't know if he's real. For all we know he could just be some sort of stupid bedtime story" as Stefan was trying to calm down his girlfriend, she remembered something, and looked up the the youngest Salvatore

"You know him" she stated "Don't you"

Arabella sighed and dipped her head as the other three vampires looked in her direction "Yeah, and Rose" she looked at her "you did a good job, most of your information was right, only, he isn't the oldest, Elijah is older than him and then there's another one above Elijah, who I never met but he sounds like bore"

"Is he going to come after me?" Elena asked, making Arabella look at her with a look of guilt

"Yeah" she nodded "he is. I'm sorry, Elena. I tried to keep him away, I really did, and it was going great until she" Arabella pointed at Rose "Kidnapped us, and brought Elijah here, who, by the way, is not dead"

Damon scoffed and rolled his eyes "He's dead, trust me"

"He's not, trust me" Arabella rolled her eyes at her brother's cockiness "If originals could die that easily, they would be long gone by now"

"How many originals are there?" Stefan asked

"Um.." Arabella debated on wither or not to tell them, but ultimately decided that now was the time "6"
