Blood and Honey (Vampire Diaries FanFic)

⚠️⚠️84- The Reckoning..⚠️⚠️

Hearing this, I look the man up and down. "You first." I counter. "You shouldn't be here.." Elena warns me, cutting in. Hearing this, the man looks back and forth between us curiously, before speaking again. "Come now Elena, no need to be rude." The man says, before taking a step towards me. "If your friend wishes to stay.." he trails off, before making direct eye contact with me. "Then she Will Follow Us Without Question.." the man says. What is he..? Before I can finish that sentence, Elena speaks. "No! Klaus, leave her out of this!" Elena says quickly, grabbing his arm. The moment that name finds my ears I freeze up. Klaus..? Then, that means.. Knowing what the man is trying to do, I stay perfectly still, being sure to keep eye contact, so he won't figure it out. I knew running away would end badly, so, I decide to play the part. "I'll Follow You Without Question.." I repeat his words, trying my best to sound convincing. Hearing this, Elena furrows her brows in confusion, before seeming to realize what I was doing. Understanding, she continues to act her part. Seeing my 'obedience' the man now known as Klaus, smirks in victory, and walks him and Elena past me. "Good girls, come along then." He orders. I nod and follow them soon after.

Klaus walks us to the gymnasium, opening the doors. "Attention, Seniors. You have officially been busted. Prank Night is over. Head on home." Klaus says in a more modern accent. Hearing this, all the students file out, except two. "You two. I remember you." Klaus says to the boy and girl before him. "I'm sorry, who are you?" The girl asks. "Oh don't worry, I wasn't in my right head the last time we met." Klaus says quickly. "Now lift your foot up please, Ms. Dana." He says, compelling the girl. She does as he says. Smiling, he looks to the boy. "If she drops her foot, Chad, I want you to beat her to death. Understood?" He asks, compelling the boy as well. He nods his head silently. "Don't, Klaus, you don't have to hurt anybody." Elena says in protest. Although I wanted to do something, I have to remind myself to stay quiet. He told me to 'Follow Without Question'...I can't question his actions without ruining the act.. Although reluctant, I knew I had to keep my mouth shut. "Come on, love. Of course I do." He says with a smirk.

After a while, the girl begins to struggle to keep her leg up, sweat covering her, due to the effort she had to put into it. "Keep it up." Klaus reminds her. I bite my tongue hard, reminding myself to stay quiet. In order to distract myself, I look around with my eyes, for any signs of Tyler. Seeing he was still nowhere to be found, and Klaus was with me, I silently hope he's safely hidden somewhere, where Klaus won't find him. "Where's Stefan? What'd you do to him?" Elena asks Klaus, distracting me from my search. "Stefan's on a time out." He replies, right before a door behind us opens, revealing Bonnie and Matt. "Bonnie, get out of here!" Elena warns immediately. However, hearing this, Klaus uses his Vampire speed to get behind Bonnie. "Ah, I was wondering when you'd show up. Now we can get started. Uh, Dana, why don't you relax for a bit? You and Chad sit tight." Klaus orders. With that, the girl immediately falls into the boy's arms, as they take a seat. "I assume you're the reason Elena's still walking around alive?" Klaus asks, turning his attention to Bonnie. "That's right. If you wanna blame someone, blame me." Bonnie says. "Oh, there's no need for blame, love. Just your Witchy interference seems to have caused some undesirable side effects, and since you caused the problem, I'm going to have you find the fix." Klaus replies, right before another door opens.

"Hey, get off of me!" Tyler's voice finds my ears, making my eyes widen in fear, and turn towards him. Sh*t..! There, I see an unfamiliar woman, practically dragging him inside. "Hush now." The woman says, before stopping at Klaus' side. Tyler struggles some more, before looking to Klaus. He had yet to notice me standing behind Elena, due to the angle he was in. Sh*t! Sh*t! Sh*t..!! I silently panic as I try to come up with a plan to get us out alive. Unfortunately, I come up blank, no matter how hard I try. "I'd like you all to meet my sister Rebekah. A word of warning, she can be quite mean." Klaus says with a smile. "Don't be an a**." The woman, now known as Rebekah says, before pushing Tyler into Klaus' arms. Klaus quickly grabs ahold of him. I take a step forward immediately, but stop myself from giving away my position. Be smart about this, dammit..! One wrong move, and Tyler's dead..! I warn myself. I fist my hands tightly in concern. "Leave him alone!" Elena says. Ignoring her, Klaus walks him past Elena, before turning him towards us. That's when Tyler finally sees me. "Rae..!" Tyler speaks without thinking, eyes widened in fear, as he tries to take a step towards me, only to realize Klaus' grip was too strong to escape.
