Howlin' For You

Chapter 15 - The Hybrid

The rest of the week went by without any major drama, except for the fact, that Damon and Elena were arguing more than usual. It had something with Elena trying to change him, "keep him in check" and honestly, Rhiannon tried her best to stay out of it. She didn't need to get her head bitten off trying to fix things.

            Before she knew it, it was a night before the start of their senior year and they were crouching in one of the classrooms, setting up fifty mouse traps when Matt barged in setting off all of the traps scaring the hell out of them and himself.

            "Oh c'mon!!! Seriously?!" Caroline cried out. "Do you know how long this took us to set up?!"

            "Well I don't know about you, but I'm not setting this up again," Rhiannon mumbled sitting on top of one of the chairs.

            "Forgot about senior prank night huh?" Tyler chimed in.

            "Clearly," Matt retorted.

            "How could you forget? We've only been waiting for this since like a freshman year!" Caroline said incredulously.

            "Yea Matt, if I'm doing this, you're doing this," Elena joined in.

            "I'm kinda surprised any of you are doing this," Matt countered.

            "Caroline's making us," Bonnie chimed in.

            "We're about to be seniors," Caroline started in a serious tone of voice. "These are the memories that will stay with us forever and—"

            "If we don't create these memories now then what's the point of it all," Elena and Rhiannon toned together.

            "Go ahead, make fun, I don't care," Caroline laughed.

            "You're all lame," Tyler jumped in heading for the door. "And I've got ten more classrooms to prank."

            "Where are you going?" Bonnie asked as Elena followed behind him.

            "To superglue Alaric's desk chair," Elena answered matter-of-factedly making Caroline beam at her. "Making memories."

            "I love you," she toned after her.

            "Well, Bonnie and Matt are gonna TP the swimming pool and I better get on with setting these up," Rhiannon said.

            "I thought you said you're not doing it again," Caroline toned appreciatively.

            "Well I changed my mind after your inspiring speech," Rhiannon joked.

            After she was done setting up the mouse traps she tiptoed out of the classroom and decided to find others to see what else needed to be done but there seemed to be nobody left. The whole school was vacant which was weird to say the least. She decided to try the gym and as she pushed open the gym door she was stopped dead in her tracks by the sight of Klaus standing over Tyler's unconscious body and Elena, Bonnie and Matt looking shocked and helpless. There was another blonde girl who she'd never seen before. Before she could react in any way she was grabbed by Klaus.

            "Well tonight just keeps getting better and better," he muttered, having her in a choke-hold and walking right back to the middle of the gym. "I was hoping you'd show up tonight love. Saves me the trouble of hunting you down."
