CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE

"Jo lived here," Nik and Margot heard Alaric say as they walked back to the Gemini house. The history teacher was showing the brothers pictures he had taken from inside the home. "There's a drawer inside full of stuff. Newspaper articles about Jo's medical clamp, pictures of her as a kid, pictures of her as a teenager-"

Damon glanced down at a photo, "Hold please," He spoke as he grabbed onto it, "Rewind. That's Kai from planet 1994."

Stefan frowned, "Wait, Jo is his sister?"

"You guys didn't put that together already?" Margot asked as she took the picture from Damon, smiling slightly at the sight of Kai. "Even I did and I haven't even seen this Jo woman... not since I was five at least."

Stefan rolled his eyes playfully, "Shut up, kiddo."

"I didn't know I had guests," A man spoke from behind them.

Margot held back a sigh as she turned to face him. He looked the same as he did four years ago. Albeit, he looked even uglier with age.

She sent him a big smile, "Joshua. Lovely to see you... How're the kids?"

"Ellie," He spoke as he held back a recoil, "As you know, the kids are dead."

"Not like they didn't deserve it... Kinda wish he went after you first though, old man. Would've made life so much sweeter."

Damon glanced at her, "You know him?"

"I tried to kill him."

"And you failed," Joshua pointed out with a smirk.

"No. No, that's what you think. The only reason why I didn't kill you was because I knew Kai wanted to kill you himself. Now that I've talked to him though... I don't think he'd mind."

Before she could summon the blue mist, Damon stopped her, "We need answers."

Margot rolled her eyes, "Fine. Don't touch him though. Witches and their spells..."

Not listening to her, Damon went over to shake the man's hand. Instantly, he and Joshua went invisible earning a scoff from Margot, "No one listens. I'm surrounded by morons."

Nik chuckled as he led her back to the car before setting her up on the hood. "I hope you aren't calling me a moron, love."

"It depends," She teased as she took his lips on her own.

"What about Damon?" He asked against her lips.

"He'll be fine. Joshua won't kill him... only maim him. If anything, you should be worried about my dad who happens to be standing ten feet away from us."

The hybrid quickly pulled away, vamp speeding away from her before leaning against a tree and crossing his arms, "Stefan! What a coincidence!"

Stefan scoffed as he rubbed his forehead, "Oh my god. You're engaged to my daughter, Klaus. And you got her pregnant, you're allowed to kiss her."

"I am?"

"He is?"

Stefan chuckled, "You know Maggie, sometimes I think you are the smartest person on the planet and other times I think you are the stupidest."

"Aye!... Yeah, that makes sense."

The two Salvatores glanced over at Nik. They could smell his blood. "Nik? You alright, puppy?" She asked as she hopped off the hood with the help of Stefan.

The hybrid grunted slightly, "Yeah, I'm good, love. I uh... I sped over here a little too fast and the tree impaled me."

Stefan almost doubled over in laughter while Margot smiled, "You're such an idiot," She teased as she helped pull him off the tree.
