Power of Artemis

Kidnapped

I change my clothes and I hear the doorbell ding after Rebekah and Elijah left.

"Where is he? I've been trying to find him all day. Marcel knows that Klaus lied to him about where he lives." Josh the newer vampire asks about Nik.

"We are not his damn keeper, Josh." Hayley tells him.

"Fine! Just... tell him to call me, please." Josh nicely orders me and I nod.

"Okay." I tell him. Hayley shuts the door, and Josh walks away from the house. I hear another ring from the door.

"Ugh, what the hell, Josh?" Hayley says as she opens the door to find that Marcel is on the porch, and he startles her.

"Hi there, I'm Marcel. I don't think we've met!" Marcel tells her and she looks scared and angry. I walk up from behind her holding my stomach.

"But we have." I tell him. Next thing I know I awaken in the trunk of an SUV with my wrists bound as it drives down the country roads of Louisiana. I try to kick out the back window to escape, but the driver stops the car and gets out to check the trunk. When he opens it, he tries to grab me, but I fight back by kicking at him. It's revealed that the driver is Tyler Lockwood. I try to kick him but he catches it.

"Seriously?" Tyler asks.

"Tyler?" Hayley asks.

"You don't wanna fight me, Hayley. You know you can't beat a hybrid." He tells Hayley. He uses a zip tie putting it around her ankles and then puts wolfsbane, witch hazel, and vervain soaked zip ties on me.

"Ahh! Let me go, you backstabbing half-breed piece of shi--" Hayley starts

"Shut up!" He yells at her. He grabs both of us somehow putting us both over his shoulders. I soon pass out from the pain of all the different poison. Tyler brings us to a little shack.

"What is this place?" I ask him just waking up.

"The armpit of Louisiana." He tells us.Tyler pulls a knife out of his pocket.

"What are you gonna do with that?" Hayley asks him worried probably for herself and not me.

"Depends on you two." He tells us and cuts the zip-ties on her ankles then does the same to me.

"Hey, you attacked us, remember? You ambushed us, in our own backyard." I growl at him.

"It's not your backyard, it's Klaus'! You're shacked up in that mansion with that psycho. A long way from the girl I've met in the Appalachians, helping other werewolves." He says to Hayley.

"Tyler, I'm sorry, but a lot has happened since the last time I saw you." She tells him slightly looking at me in the corner of her eyes.

"You mean that she's pregnant? A hybrid baby, yeah, I know all about it. I've been roaming around the Bayou, asking questions. Let me tell you what I learned! [he pulls down my shirt to show my birthmark] This crescent birthmark means you come from a big-shot family. Some kind of royalty for the werewolves of this region. And right here---- this is all that's left of them." He tells us and we look around, and see more shacks and tents made of blankets. Hayley spots a blonde girl standing nearby, watching us.

"Hey!" She yells to her and the woman is startled and immediately runs away.

"Help me!" Hayley says forgetting about me. I roll my eyes.

"They can't help you! They're in the woods, hiding, because they were persecuted for decades by vampires." Tyler growls at her. Another werewolf appears.

"Is that her?" He asks looking at me.

"Yeah, Dwayne. Get her inside." Tyler sighs at his stupidity.
