I wake up to find myself tied up in the back of a trunk. I begin to feel panic surge through me as I kick and try to escape. I try to kick the glass but it just won't budge.

Finally, the glass breaks and the car abruptly stops. I hear the door open and I scream as loud as I can.

The trunk flings open and I'm faced with one of my oldest half friends- Tyler Lockwood. "Tyler?" I ask in amazement. I jump up and try to wrap him in an embrace, but he pulls away.

"Don't fight me Sky, you know you can't beat a hybrid." He warns. "Why would I fight you?" I ask wearily. "Because Sky, I'm here for your baby." He explains. My eyes grow wide and I kick him in the jaw.

He then zip ties my ankles together and I screech. "Let me go!" I plead yelling. He shakes his had she throws me over his shoulder before walking. I kick and struggle but he's nearly as strong as Elijah's grip while I was thrashing earlier tonight.

He brings us to a shack into the bayou and sets me down on the porch. "What is this place?" I ask fearfully. "The armpit of Louisiana." He states pulling out a knife. "What are you going to do with that?" I ask with tears running down my face.

"That depends on you." He states walking over and cuts the zip ties on my ankles. "You attacked me, why?" I ask. "Because you are pregnant to Klaus." He explains harshly.

"I've been roaming the bayou. That birthmark on your shoulder, means you come from a big shot family. And this, is all that's left of them." Tyler explains. I look over and see a young brown haired girl.

"Help me please!" I beg but she runs. "They can't help you. Their in the woods hiding because they've been persecuted for decades by vampires." Tyler explains as a man with a plaid shirt and jeans with brown messy hair walks up to me.

"Is this her?" He asks. I back away slowly full of discomfort, while he and Tyler converse.

"Get inside." Tyler orders. Suddenly, Dwaine grabs me and shoves me inside of the shack.

He zip ties me to a metal pole and leaves me there. I sit and watch Tyler walk around the shack. "If you hurt me, Klaus will kill you. I'm his walking incubator." I shrug. "What makes you think I'm afraid to die?" Tyler asks.

I shrug my shoulders and Dwaine walks in. "Are you ready?" Dwaine asks. Tyler nods. "Let's do it."

Tyler takes a syringe out of his bag and I tense. "What are you doing?" I ask fearfully. Dwaine holds me down and I panic. "Tyler please!" I beg.

He comes forward with the syringe and stabs me in the stomach, collecting blood while I scream out in horror. "I'm taking away what Klaus wants most!" Tyler exclaims and I scream even more but he is relentless.

Tyler takes the blood he retracted from me and shoves it into Dwaine's neck, before snapping it. I gasp and turn away while tears spill from my eyes in fear.

He walks out and I remain in the corner turned and crying my eyes out. Stupid hormones.

Tyler drags Dwaine's body outside and I turn back, not wanting to look at him. "Don't get all judgey-" he starts. "No! Don't even speak to me. Your words are all bull shit." I spat.

"Fine then." He states. "But you should know, your here to test my theory." Tyler explains. "What theory?" I ask keeping turned away. "That your blood, your baby's blood- can be used to make werewolves into hybrids." Tyler explains.

I look him in the eyes and see regret being consumed by hatred. "No, it isn't true." I testify. "Yeah? I bet you Klaus already knew." Tyler states. "Say what you want you half breed hybrid wannabe piece of shit, but I could care less what comes out of your mouth." I spat.

"You like him." He figures. "I did." I explain. Suddenly, Dwaine pops up gasping for air. "Your gonna have to feed from her." Tyler explains grabbing a knife. "What no!" I yell.

He cuts my neck and I scream as Dwaine sinks his teeth into my neck. He lets go and yells out.

I curl into the corner and go into a panic attack. I breath heavily and eventually calm my breathing when I see the knife and cut my bindings. I race outside where I find Dwaine on the found and Tyler asking him questions.

I immediately run, when Tyler stops me. "Hey, back off." Dwaine defends me. "What the hell?" Tyler asks. "I said back off!" Dwaine shouts.

I shake as the two hybrids begin to fight. I take the overt unity to race through the woods. I run and run, panicking all the while.

Suddenly, I run right into someone, and that's when panic all to much sinks in, and I let everything in my world turn to black.

I wake up and fine Elijah staring down at me with worry. I step up off of the ground and I wrap my arms around him. "Elijah Tyler tried to kill me and the baby because he said that the baby can make hybrids and Klaus knew that but I don't know!" I cry into his shoulder.

"Are you hurt?" He asks. "Not anymore." I state trying to calm down. "Come, let's go see if my brother knew anything of this." He states helping me walk back to the camp site.

When we arrive, we find Klaus standing I front of the shack waiting patiently. "Ahh Skylar, so you decide to return to us." Klaus states. I wipe my tear stained cheeks and try to hold back the fear.

"This would appear to be the body of a hybrid. I didn't sire him, any idea how that's possible?" Klaus asks. "Tyler Lockwood brought Skylar here to test a theory- that the blood of your child could be used to sire hybrids. He claims you knew this, and threatened Skylar and the child." Elijah explains while I keep my head down.

"And of course you both assume it's true." Klaus states hurt. "I stood up for you, I told him you didn't know, that you never knew about it until I'm telling you now. It's true." I state with the panic and fear in my voice.

"Of course Elijah! You instantly believe the heartbroken little crybaby who points his finger toward me! Your own blood!" Klaus shouts. "I can't." I shake my head and walk into the shack and sit while Klaus and Elijah argue outside.

I manage to tune it out until I hear Elijah let out a pained shout. I run outside when I'm grasped by Klaus and he speeds away.

He stops in the woods and looks me over for any wounds. "Are you alright?" He asks concerned. "I'm fine." I state wrapping my arms around him. "I'm sorry, I'm just stressed." I explain backing away. "Don't worry love." He states soothingly.

"What about Elijah? You bit him and left him there." I ask. "He'll be fine in a day or two love, I did what I did." Klaus explains. "Well, for the record, I do forgive you." I smile and blush.

He speeds us back to the plantation house and I spot Rebekah standing in the room.

I give her a small smile before walking upstairs to get some much needed rest. I plop down on the bed and instantly fall asleep.
