Night Time Creatures [Klaus Mikaelson]

58 • Don't Follow Me

Aliona's P.O.V

I'd set a plan into motion. It was already making me feel sick and it hadn't even played out yet.

Using Andie's phone to lure Damon to the news station. He was on his way.

After all this time I was going to see my brother, yet I had to act as if I had no remorse for what I was going to do.

"Andie?" Damon's voice calls from below. He stepped cautiously into the dark room, only lit by a small light in the corner. Walking forwards, he spotted Andie's purse, picking it up before looking around.

"Damon." I called down, his head snapped up as he looked in shock.

"Ali...you're back. We've been looking-"

"I'm not back Damon, you need to stop looking for me." I spoke harshly, with no warmth or comfort in my voice. Despite inside I was feeling elated to finally see one of my brothers again.

"No, this isn't you this is what Klaus is doing to you." Damon was already seething.

"No Damon, this is me. You need to let me go." I pressed as he shook his head, cautiously I jumped down so I was now stood in front of him. "You need to stop following me, you're causing problems."

"For Klaus? I don't care about him." Damon persisted as I shook my head. "Saw your latest artwork in that hotel. You're walking a fine line Ali."

"You know maybe I haven't made my point." I sighed, rubbing my eyes, frustrated that it had to come to this. "Hey Andie are you still there?"

"Andie?" Damon frowned, looking up to see his 'girlfriend' fling thing stood stock still on one of the overhanging beams.

"Damon? I can't move, Damon." Andie's voice was full of panic. "She told me I can't move."

"No it's okay Andie, stay calm." Damon called upwards but glaring at me. "Not cool sis, turn your humanity back on and fix this." He spoke with narrowed eyes, hatred in his words. However this caused me to laugh in disbelief.

"Oh brother, you should know that if my humanity was off, you'd really know about it." I warned, realisation hit him as he realised that my emotions were very much intact. "Hey Andie." I shouted up to her. "You can move now."

"No!"

However before Damon could catch her, I pushed him away and up against the nearest wall. He watched with a concoction of shock and sadness in his eyes as Andie fell to her death.

"Don't follow me. Just let me go." I warned one last time, before speeding off. Leaving Damon to pick up the pieces that I'd just caused, I prayed that he'd got the message across to him. For his sake, so that Klaus wouldn't kill him.

Stefan was next, I opened my phone and began to dial his number.

"Ali? Aliona, where are you?" His voice spoke through the speaker, he'd answered the phone almost immediately.

"Stefan you need to stop." I spoke bluntly, my voice monotonous. "You can't try to track me anymore."

"What why? Are you okay? What's Klaus making you do?" Stefan fired questions as I closed my eyes, sighing.

"Stefan if you try to follow me anymore then I'll do something that we'll both regret. I've already killed Andie." I spoke as the other end of the line stayed profusely quiet.

"Andie? Like Damon's fling?" Stefan asked in disbelief, my silence answered for me. "Ali I-"

"No Stefan. If you don't stop following me then I'll... flip the switch." I warned, knowing that he wouldn't be able to bear it.

"Just...be safe Ali, don't let him drag you down that spiral." Stefan sighed, I could tell he felt defeated.

"Bye Stefan." I whispered, hanging up before groaning.

"You're back." Klaus stated as I walked into the same dreary bar on the border. Ray was tied down to the pool table, his mouth covered in blood that had no doubt come from the healing wound on Klaus' wrist.

"Did you doubt me?" I questioned, walking over to lean on the pool table.

"Not for a second." Klaus smirked, I glanced down at the exhausted looking Ray. "Do you know what step two is of the process Ray?"

Before Ray could even think of an answer, Klaus had twisted his neck. The sickening snap indicating his disconnection from life.

"You past the test Aliona." Klaus spoke as we walked over to sit on the bar stools. "I knew you still cared for your brothers." My heart stopped slightly at his words. "Well you never stop caring for family do you?"

"I don't care about anything anymore." I glanced at him, a deadpan stare fixated on my face.

"But every time you feed." Klaus began leaning in closer, my gums were already tingling. "The blood makes it a little bit easier." His words sent a chill down my spine, I still struggled with control.

"I need some air." I barely whispered, swiftly pushing back the stool and heading for the back door of the bar.

Stefan's P.O.V

"Damon, Ali's okay. She's...what are you doing!" I raised my voice as I walked into his room, Damon stood by the fire place with a match. Ready to burn every single lead we had.

"She's gone Stefan, so stop looking." Damon spoke bluntly, striking up a flame before tossing onto the heap of papers. The TV in the corner was broadcasting the news report about Andie's 'suicide.'

"I'm sorry about Andie, but are we really going to give up on our sister?" I asked with a frown of frustration.

"Yes." Damon nodded after a slight pause.

"Why."

"She killed Andie! She doesn't want to be found Stefan, we can't help her if she doesn't want to be helped." Damon shouted, "She's gone okay."

"If she was gone then why's her humanity still on?" I asked, catching him off guard.

"No, she's gone because her humanities still on. If she could do all that with her emotions on, then she's too far gone." Damon gestured at the heap of paper, slowly burning.
