CHAPTER FIVE

"What's up assholes and dickheads? Hey, dad!" Margot said excitedly as she walked inside the boarding house.

She had left for a few days, wanting to go back to New York and get her belongings. She also wanted to tie up some loose ends, one of those being Brie, her ex-girlfriend.

"Is uh is Brie Hughes here?" She asked as she walked inside the law firm.

A secretary stared at her, "Do you have an appointment?"

"An appointment? No, I don't have an appointment but that isn't what I asked. Is she here or not?"

The woman looked at her, "Please calm down, miss."

"I am calm. I'm just in a bit of a hurry. She's- Just tell her Margot Salvatore is here."

She nodded as she held a phone to her ear. One a few minutes later, she came walking down in all her glory. "Hey, Mar."

"Hey, Brie."

They had spent a few more days together than Margot had planned, saying their goodbyes in their own special way which involved Margot with her head between the woman's thighs but that was beside the point.

She was done with New York. She had moved on. And so had Brie.

"Rose is dead, Caroline was kidnapped by the werewolves, Elijah is daggered, Isobel killed herself in front of Elena and Katherine is dead," Stefan said in reply.

"Oh... I brought pizza."

"Great, I'm starving."

"Who is this guy? Safari Sam?" A man asked rhetorically as he looked through Alaric's closet. He sighed before pulling out two shirts and holding them in front of a woman who was tied down to a chair. "Okay, bad or badder?"

"The dark colours suit you better," She answered as she gripped onto the chair.

"Oh, thank you, honey. Okay, pop quiz. The dagger and whiteash are in the Salvatore's possession?"

"The dagger was used to kill Elijah. You'll find him in the basement of the boarding house."

He nodded as he put on his jacket, "Okay, that dagger needs to stay exactly where it is. The last thing I need to do is resurrect Elijah. That guy is a buzzkill."

"And don't forget you are on the outs with your girlfriend Jenna."

He sighed, "Right, Elena's aunt. For uh all the lies about Isobel."

"That's it."

'Alaric' smiled as he walked closer to her before he placed his hand on her neck, playing with a strand of her hair causing her to jump. "Oh, so jumpy."
"Please just kill me. I've told you everything that I know."

"Everything? Then tell me why I've not heard a word about Margot Salvatore?"

The woman stared at the floor only for her face to be lifted to meet his eyes, "Tell me about her."

"She's a siphoner," She said, her voice forced as he compelled her. "Her dad used to abuse her- he kept her in a basement until she was 15; that was when Stefan found her. Stefan raised her, he's practically her dad."

"What else?"

"She left town a few days ago... maybe even a week ago, I don't know, you kidnapped me, remember? Just kill me Klaus and be done with it."

"And show you kindness? I've searched for you for over 500 years. Your death is going to last at least half that long. Now," He paused as he pulled out a knife from his pocket, "I want you to take this knife... and stab yourself."
