Klaus and Elena (Book 3 the final book)

Chpt. 10

I follow the blood through the trail with a million thoughts running through my head. I'm scared of what I might find at the end of the trail, but as I'm walking the drops of blood start to get bigger and bigger. Then I see him. I see Klaus Mikaelson in all of his bloody glory.

"Ah Elena so glad you could join us"

He claps his hands together and I gasp looking at the horrible scene in front of me. He has the innocent campers hanging upside down from tree limbs. There bodies completely drained of blood.

"Klaus, wh -what did you do?"

"Oh don't worry I saved one for you"

He says smiling and he grabs a girl no older than fifteen out from behind a tree. She's shaking and crying.

"Let her go"

I say sternly and he rolls his eyes.

"You're no fun"

He pushes her towards me and I grab her by the shoulders before she hits the ground.

"Go home. Forget about everything's that's happened here. You'll miss these people, but know they are in a better place."

I say looking into her eyes then she nods her head and runs away.

"Have you gone completely insane!?"

I ask walking towards him.

"Uhm no. Have you?"

"What's that suppose to mean?"

I ask crossing my arms. He has me so confused right now.

"Well I did just kill a whole bunch of innocent campers and strung them up by their feet, and you're still here. I haven't even heard your heart rate go up once."

He says amused as if he's proud of me.

"I'm not afraid of you Klaus."

"You should be"

"So is that what this whole things about? You want me to be afraid of you!?"

What is even going through his head right now!?

"It would be a whole lot easier for you..if you were."

He says walking around me in a circle.

"What would be easier for me?"

"are you that's stupid? You still haven't figured it out!?"

He says and i furrow my brows

"I would have never have done this before because of you. I was afraid of what you would have thought of me, but not anymore. I'm back to my old ways, and I happen to like it"

He says into my ear and for the first time my heart rate speeds up and he notices it.

"Klaus you didn't"

"Oh. I did"

"You shut off your humanity!? How could you do that!?"

"Elena I never had any humanity!! My only humanity was you!! but none of that matters anymore because I've shut off my feelings for you! I'm the same as I was before, I just don't care about you anymore!"

I feel a tear go down my cheek and I shake my head.

"You don't mean that. Klaus this isn't you!"

"Oh it is now!"

He walks closer to me and he's inches away from my face.

"How does it feel Elena? To have your heart broken into a million tiny pieces? know one betrays me...."

He says quietly. He backs away from me and smiles.

"Maybe I should hang you up by your ankles like the rest of these poor lads. Or I could leave you tied to a tree and let the bears get you."

I'm not even listening to him right now. I'm still trying to process the fact that what little of his humanity was left is now gone and it's all my fault. I look up realizing that he's stopped talking. He has this wicked smile on his face and I try to say something that might change his mind but it's to late. He vamps over to me and sinks is fangs into my neck and black fog starts to cloud my mind. This isn't so bad I think to myself. To die in the arms of the one person in this world that i truly love. Maybe i should just close my eyes and let the darkness in. So I do.
