Song: 'DLZ' By TV on the Radio

'The creatures of the night come out to play. They came out to win'

My body slams into the tile flooring of the mansion with the same force that I was thrown with the right as they opened the door to their home. Klaus's hand suddenly not wrapped around my bicep anymore in a death hold for when he shoved me.

I land sprawled on my stomach in the center of the room, smacking my forehead on the hard ground when I didn't have time to catch myself and crushing my hand when I fell on top of it. A soft noise leaves my mouth as the air is knocked out of my lungs and the pain slowly radiates through my whole body at the impact. The momentum of his hybrid strength sent me sliding on the ground a couple inches.

I recover from the rude gesture within seconds and I whip myself up to stand tall in front of him, showing him he can't intimidate me.

Klaus glares heatedly at me only feet away while the other three flood through the door, watching us silently. Ready to step in if needed because they all know that when me and Klaus fight it's World War 3 and it's gets much worse before it gets better.

"Well well, look whose back from the dead" Klaus mutters in a deathly calm voice.

My frown deepens and I shoot back a viscous glare, my anger slowly eating away at me. "With no help from any of you" my ears slightly perk up when hearing the door close and Elijah, Kol and Rebekah walk toward us hesitantly.

Klaus raises his arms by his side "The point of locking your coffin was so that you couldn't be helped while you faced your punishment"

My punishment? My punishment?! What the hell did he expect me to do when he daggered Kol? Just stand around and watch him ruin the only  good thing in my life. Seeking out Mikael was an act of desperation on my part. I couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep, I couldn't eat until Klaus was punished. If I had more time and more patience then Mikael would have no part in his downfall. Klaus's downfall would be all me if I had a choice, but I had to do something right then. 

"So, what you're saying is that I could lock you in a coffin if you piss me off? Sounds fair." I mutter sarcastically with an eye roll. Loving the way Klaus looks like he's about to snap and rip me apart. "That's what you do to the rest of your siblings if they disagree with you"

As the words leave my lips, I glance over at the others in the room and I can see the memories swirling in their eyes for when they pissed off their brother and were daggered. Rebekah's eyes glaze over and she swallows hard, remembering the time when she was with the hunter named Alexander and ultimately got everyone daggered excluding me and Klaus.  We killed him as well as the other hunters in a 100 mile radius from being so pissed off that night.

Sometimes it's not even the act of being daggered. Klaus throws it in his siblings faces every time he throws a tantrum and doesn't get what he wants. He blackmails and I'm sure by now that everyone is sick of it.
