The Craziest Doppelgänger • TVD [COMPLETED]

Chapter Twenty-Two - Into the Wild

IT was finally morning and the three Originals stuck in the Gilbert house were a wreck.

The night before, Klaus and Brielle cuddled into each other's arms. Brielle cried, staring from her sister to Kol's body as Klaus was there comforting her. He, as well, glanced from his best friend to his dead brother.

Both of them would even glance at each other, staring into each other's eyes, not knowing what to do.

Achlys, on the other hand, just sat in the spot she was in the previous night, staring at Kol's body. She would mumble words from time to time; mostly blaming herself, Elena, Jeremy, Bonnie, Klaus, Kol and Brielle. It worried 'Nielle' seeing as she would only say a name, and not why she was saying it.

Achlys never went to sleep that night. Klaus didn't either, but Brielle did once she calmed down. And she fell asleep in his arms. He wanted to smile but it was too painful.

Now, Klaus was standing in the living room, looking at Kol's burnt corpse, standing behind Achlys who was still in the same spot with Brielle hugging her. All three of them looked upset.

Tyler walks in the front door. "Morning, sunshines. You all look pathetic."

Brielle and Achlys wanted to respond but they had no strength. So they hoped Klaus would.

"Only until Bonnie's spell locking us in here wears off." Klaus reminds him, evilly. "Then we'll look different. Angrier, perhaps. Or we won't look like anything because I'll have gouged your eyeballs from their sockets. Maybe Achlys will rip out your heart, so the blonde girl can't love you. And knowing Brielle, it'll be something poetic to symbolize what you are."

Tyler glances the twins' way before smirking at Klaus. "My friends will be back with the cure by then. So, I could shove it down your throat and make you mortal. Just like I'll do to the two of them."

"We're all Originals. What makes you think my entire vampire bloodline won't be cured along with me? I.e., you." Klaus wonders with a grin.

Unfazed, Tyler responds to Klaus. "You know what I think? I think that's impossible. I think the moment you stop being a vampire, our whole blood connection to you is broken, and your sire-line ceases to exist. So, whatever happens to you, happens only to you, which means I can kill your ass and no one else has to die. Although I am still debating just how to do it." Tyler looks at Brielle and Achlys and smirks even more. "Maybe I'll first make them mortal and make you watch as I rip their hearts out. That'll surely kill you. Especially if Brielle dies."

Klaus speeds toward Tyler furiously, but can't get him due to the barrier. "I recommend drowning. There's nothing quite like the feeling of someone fighting for something as basic as human breath. And let me tell you, your mother was a fighter." Tyler glares at Klaus, who looks pleased with his taunting. He steps out the house and Klaus checks on the twins.

"Are you alright --," Brielle got up and smiled softly at Klaus.

"We're fine." She lied with ease. Klaus noticed it but didn't comment.

"You know this is my fault right?" The other tribrid finally spoke after being frozen in time.

"Achlys!" The two ex-lovers say as the rush to her side.
