For the Next Millennium (Sequel to Demon or an Angel)

Chapter 22

Klaus's P.O.V

The slammed shut and Alex brought a chair over to the middle of the room. She sat down and held her head in her hands.

"You're ashamed?" I asked her and she looked up at me.

"And why would you say that?" She asked me as she walked over to my cell.

"Because it's in your eyes." I said and she came real close to me.

"You know-" I cut her off.

"Don't play that card with me. Everything you're about to say I've said it and everything you feel I've felt. So don't, please, it's pathetic." I said and she huffed.

"You think I don't get hurt." We all looked at Alex. "If I don't do as he says then I'm the one in the electric shock chair." Alex said and then we heard Emily scream. Alex looked down and started to cry. "I wanted to run away with her and I was going to but dad stopped me." Alex said and Kol spoke up.

"Then help us." Kol said and Alex looked at him. She was about to say something but then the door opened.

"Well," We looked up and saw Mikael. "Here the one you all care about." He said and threw Emily into her cell. She coughed up blood and tried to sit up. Mikael watched her and looked amazed. "She's a fighter." I looked down at her and Rebekah kept trying to talk to her.

"I have to be...have you met my family." Emily weakley said and I smiled at her. She managed to stand up, only to fall on the side of the cell door. She looked up at Mikael and he smiled at her.

"It going to fun crushing your Spirit." Mikeal said and Emily laughed at him.

"That's the thing asshole...you never are." Emily said and Mikael slapped so hard she fell to the floor. She started to cough up blood and laughed. "You think that hurts me." She took a deep breath. "I've been through worse." Emily said and then Mikael slammed her cell door shut. He walked out of the room and Alex stayed to watch over us.

Emily's P.O.V

I smiled. My plan worked. I found there weak point. Power. If they think someone isn't scared of them then they have no power so they make them scared. I know how to get us out of here. I heard my jail cell open. I felt someone grab my arm and I looked around to see Klaus.

"Come on love. I gotcha ya." He said and I put my arm around is neck. He picked me up and laid me on my bed. "Is anything broken?" He asked and I nodded. Klaus bit his wrist and fed me his blood. I started to feel better but some things still hurt.

"Alright I let you help her know get back in your cell!" I heard Alex yell. Klaus left and I laid my head back. I felt someone soon take my hand and I looked to left see Klaus. I sighed and took a tighter hold of his hand.

"I'm right here, Nik. Don't worry it's going to take a lot more than what they did to kill me." I said and he laughed at my comment.

"So, this is who you are? A fighter and a runner." Klaus said and I nodded.

"That's me and I promise I'll get us out of here." I said and I felt someone staring at us. I looked to see Alex and I was confused.

"How do you still have so much hope when you know what's going to happen in the end?" Alex asked me and I lifted up my head to see her.

"Because I believe that there's always another way." I laid my head on my pillow again. "There has to be." I said and the room fell silent again. I soon found myself falling asleep.

*_Dream_*

I was walking around my cell and then the door opened to see Elijah and Joe.

"Brother!" Rebekah, Klaus and Kol yelled and I smiled. Joe and Elijah smiled back at me.

"Elijah" I breathed out with a smile.

"Elijah get your siblings out and I'll get Emily out." Joe said and Elijah nodded. Elijah got Kol out first while Joe got me out.

"You found me" I said and Joe smiled.

"Please" Joe opened up the door. "It's not like we haven't been through this before." Joe said and I wrapped my arms around him.

"Well look at this" We all turned around to see my father with a gun pointed to my mothers head and another pointed to my sisters. "What do we have here?" Dad asked us and I stepped forward.

"Let them go. They did nothing, this is between you and me." I said and took one more step forward. Dad loaded the gun and I stopped moving.

"Not another step or they both die." Dad said and I stopped in my place. I was a foot in front of everyone and he smiled.

"What do you want?" I asked him and he stood up.

"I want you to choose who dies. Mommy dearest or big sister?" He asked me and I looked at my sister and mom.

"Elijah tell Aria I love her." I said.

"What are you about to do?" Joe asked an I held my hand out behind me. Joe took a hold of it and I squeezed his hand.

"Thank you for being my best friend, Klaus, Rebekah, Kol, and Joe." I said and then turned to Elijah so he could see me. "I love you" I said and then looked at my dad and let go of Joe's hand.

"So?" He asked and I looked at him. I took a deep breath.

"Me" I said and he looked confused.

"What?" They all asked and I closed my eyes letting a few tears fall.

"Kill me but you have to promise to let everybody in here go." I said and dad nodded.

"Deal" He said and Elijah ran up to me. He turn me so I was facing him.

"No, we need you. Me, Aria, Klaus, Joe." Elijah said then I heard a gunshot.

*_End of Dream_*

I shot up wake and grabbed my chest. It was a dream. I looked around to see everybody asleep. I looked into Klaus's cell and smiled. "Klaus, Klaus" I whispered and he slowly opened up his eyes.

"Hey Em, what are you doing up?" He asked me and I started crying. He sped over to me and placed his hand on my cheek.

"It was horrible," I whispered and Klaus looked worried.

"What was?" Klaus asked and I saw Alex starting to wake up. I placed my finger over my lips telling him to be quiet.

"I had another nightmare." I said and Klaus hugged me even though there was a big metal bar in between us. I hugged him back and cried a little.

"Everything's going to be ok. It was just a bad dream. You're ok." Klaus said and I smiled. We pulled away and he walked back to his bed. I stopped him.

"Can you stay with me please?" I asked and he nodded. We talked until I found myself sound asleep again.
