❝Klaus Mikaelson was the monster one would tell their children, he's the villain in everyone's stories, but for me he was the prince who saved me from myself and I think I saved the last bit of hope within him.❞
Bodie Erikson wasn't human, but...

Bodie was ready to set the world on fire, he wanted to find both Stefan and Damon and kill them for doing what they did to Klaus. As much as he knew that he had no right to be angry because of everything that he's done, but even still, there was a small part of Bodie that still felt as if he needed to protect Klaus from everything even if he failed. He knew that there was nothing that he could do that could change anything, but if he got Klaus' body in his hands then at least he would be safe.
With Alaric after all of them, Bodie knew that he could use the witches he has at his disposal to hide Klaus' body from Alaric, he knew that he had until Elena died a human way until Alaric died. Though, it was tempting to just kill Elena just to kill Alaric, he didn't care that Elena had protection, he didn't care that it might ruin his relationship with Henry, but he needed to do this in order to protect himself and uphold a promise he made—and broke a couple times—even if there were so many things that he had to think about.
He knew that he should stop and think, that he needed to slow down and rethink everything, but given that Alaric was a threat to them—to him, he needed to do something. He couldn't let Alaric live while he continued to threaten Bodie's entire sire-line, he knew that the only way for him to do such a thing was to get to Elena. And by getting to Elena, he would have to get through anyone that was more than willing to defend her.
Bodie wanted nothing more than to kill Elena without consequence, but all that Bodie wanted to do was make sure that he was safe, that both Henry and Will were safe. He wanted to make sure that the ones that he loved were safe even if it meant killing the one person that Henry cared about. At this point, Bodie was convinced that Henry would eventually forgive him for everything that he decides to do with time, given that Henry couldn't be angry with him forever.
He wondered whether or not anything that he would plan would be good, but there was just a small part of him that knew that there was a chance that he would be hated for ever deciding that this would be best. All Bodie wanted to do was protect himself and he didn't care what he did in order to get it.
Henry and Will left Bodie alone a while ago given that Henry received a text from Caroline saying that Henry is needed to watch Elena given that she apparently fainted. Will wanted to stay behind, but Henry dragged him with him as if a way to make sure that she was protected. Though, there was a small part of Bodie that felt as if Henry knew that there was a chance that Bodie might try and do something that would need both of them.
He shook his head slightly, all that seemed to fill him was a need to try and protect himself. He knew that no matter what he did, there was a chance that he would be hated, but that was something that he didn't want to care about. He wanted to protect himself from what Alaric could do to him, he didn't want the people that he loves to die just because he did. He promised to protect both Will and Henry, even if it included protecting them from death.
