Edited – 2/6/18

Noah's POV

After our trip to California we parted ways with Jon, I didn't want him to get too involved with this Klaus business. Theo got a call from Klaus to meet him in Chicago at a bar called Gloria's Bar. We get to the bar but no Klaus or Stefan but there's a woman behind the bar who I assume is Gloria "Hello Gloria, long time no see. Have you seen my father?" Theo said. "He and Stefan left a while ago. He told me tell you to wait here, so relax have a drink." Gloria said.

We wait, Theo has a drink but I get a soda because I'm not old to drink yet. The bar is full of customers now and we've been waiting for a while "Hide." Theo tells me "What?" I said "I said hide. Damon is coming and if he sees you he'll tell Elena then I'll have to kill him." He said, jeez okay and I go to the bathroom in the bar, I peek out the bathroom door, I learned a trick when Theo was teaching me about how to manipulate magic.

I put my talisman next to my ear manipulating the magic in it so I can hear like vampire I listen to what's happening in the bar. "Well, look what the wind blew in. Last I heard you hated this place." Gloria said to Damon "Gloria. Damn! If I knew you were going age like this, I would have stuck around." Damon said. "I always did like you better. But I see your brother is still running in the wrong crowd." Gloria said "You've seen him?" Damon asks "With Klaus. Bad combo." She said.

"How about a young impressionable teenage witch?" Damon said Gloria looks at Theo for split second then back at Damon "Nope. Can't say I have." Gloria said. Damon looks over at Theo "Hey, aren't you that witch who hung around Elijah?" Damon said Theo ignores him "You wouldn't happen to know where Baby Witch Gilbert is? Because I'm worried sick, him not having a guardian and all." Damon said getting in Theo's personal space. Oh, crap that's not good, they have a standoff then Theo smirks and chuckles "Sorry, where are my manners, I'm Theodore but please call Theo." He said putting his hand out for Damon to shake, he shakes Theo's hand "I guess we've officially met." Damon said.

"If you're wondering were Klaus and Stefan are? They'll be back tonight. They are running an errand, right Gloria." Theo said looking over at her, she nods. "So, your Klaus's witch now? Huh." Damon said trying to strike a nerve. Theo chuckles again and takes a sip of his drink then turns towards Damon. "Mr. Salvatore are you trying to provoke me? Because it won't end well for you." Theo said his aura changed I could feel it and I'm pretty sure Damon feels it too, Theo also has a sinister smirk on his face too which also scares Damon, chuckles nervously and he leaves the bar.

Still waiting at the bar sitting next to Theo, when Klaus and Stefan walk in Gloria gives them two beers "Where's Rebekah?" Gloria asks "She'll be here. I can't conjure her on demand." Klaus said. Stefan asks Klaus about their past of how they knew each other I didn't bother listening, "So I hear you created a bodyguard for yourself." Klaus said startling me out of my stupor "Um, yeah." I said "So, where is he? Why isn't he protecting my baby brother?" Klaus said with slight angry in his tone. "I let go back to his family who he hasn't seen in two years, besides my past-self created one before and he's still alive." I said. Klaus calms down a bit "So where's your first bodyguard then?" Klaus asks "He's called a Paladin and I let be on his way, I can call him if I need him besides I don't think he would like you much." I said Klaus give me a blank stare then continues to drink.

I know I shouldn't be pissing off Klaus but what does he expect, for me to be civil and have casual conversations with him after what he's done to my family he's lucky I don't try to fry his brain every time I see him. We enter a warehouse to see an empty coffin with a dead security guard nearby "Rebekah... it's your big brother. Come out, come out, wherever you are." Klaus said I see a girl vamp speed towards Klaus stabbing him with a dagger. He gasps in pain "Go to hell, Nik!" She yells.

Klaus pulls out the dagger from his chest and drops it "Don't pout. You knew it wouldn't kill me." Klaus said "Yeah, but I was hoping it would hurt more." She said "I understand that you're upset with me, Rebekah... so I'm going to let that go. Just this once. Bought you a little piece offering. You can come out." Klaus said. Stefan walks out but doesn't recognize Rebekah then Klaus compels him to remember, they talk then Rebekah gets angry about a necklace and flips over the coffin.

After Rebekah calms down a bit she looks over at Theo then at me, I think she recognizes me, she rushes over to me and gives me a tight hug. "Henrik. Your alive how is this possibly? Rebekah asks "You can ask Theo about it because I'm tired of explaining." I said she gives me a stern look "Is that anyway to talk to your big sister." She said. I talk to Elena like this all the time but I swallow a lump in my throat and look down "Sorry." I mumble "That's all right Henrik." She said "Um, my name is Noah." I said "What?" She asks "Aunt Rebekah, it has to do with why Uncle Henrik is alive, I'll explain everything let's get you some clothes, right Father." Theo said, Klaus agrees and we leave the warehouse.

Currently we are at a clothing store were Rebekah is trying everything on "There has to be more to this dress." Rebekah said "There's not." Klaus said, she gets out of the fitting room wearing a short, black dress. She looks at us "So what do you think?" She asks "I like it" Stefan said lying "You look beautiful as always, Aunt Rebekah." Theo said "I was going to say that but yes you look beautiful, Rebekah." I said smiling lightly, I actually meant it "Thank you and please call me Sister, Henrik. And thank you Theo." She said then she glares at Stefan "What? I said I like it." Stefan said "I can always tell when you're lying, Stefan." Rebekah said she goes back in the fitting room, we all look at Stefan "Nice one. Good work." Klaus said. They argue back and forth then Stefan leaves.

Rebekah final finishes her shopping and we go back to Gloria's Bar, Stefan comes back from whatever he was doing. Gloria is casting a spell to locate a necklace and I'm not sure why "I need to talk to you privately, Uncle." Theo said to me. We walk somewhere out of earshot "Gloria, the necklace she is tracking belongs to Elena, Klaus will soon find out that she's alive." Theo told me my eyes widen "What can we do?" I ask "Maybe I can convince my father of an alternative." Theo said.

We go back to the warehouse to find Stefan laid out on the floor next to Klaus and Rebekah, Klaus speeds over to Theo and snaps his neck, I yelp then Klaus look at me and starts to walks towards me as I back away from him "Rebekah, when Theo wakes up make sure to break his neck again." He said. "Elena is alive, isn't she?" He asks me I say nothing as I start to tremble "Isn't she?!" He yells, I gather up a little courage and give him an aneurysm, he backs away in pain. I keep my hands raised towards Klaus and Rebekah "What made you I would tell that my Sister is alive, so you could just kill her again." I say to Klaus, still a little afraid. Klaus just glares at me and I notice Rebekah is nowhere to be seen, suddenly everything goes black.
