Inaction's and Consequences

Chapter 14

Disclaimer: I do not own anything related to The Vampire Diaries, TV show or books. However I decided to have a little play around with the characters (I would definitely like to play with Damon).

Warning: graphic depictions of violence and smut.

Hayley sat waiting nervously on the bench in the middle of the town square. She didn't like what she was about to do, but she was desperate to find out everything she could about her birth parents, and Shane had promised her that he could help. Although it had turned out her birth parents were dead, he said he could help bring them back for her, but to do that Shane said he needed to perform a spell and for that he needed her help. The spell involved required a witch and the sacrifice of twelve true monsters, the hybrids. Shane would provide the witch and it was up to Hayley to deliver the hybrids. However, them being sired to Klaus was a problem, they would never betray him, meaning he would never destroy them without good reason. Instead they needed a push in the right direction to betray Klaus. They needed to answer to a new Alpha, another hybrid, one she could manipulate, and Tyler had been the perfect candidate. A natural born leader, but at the same time completely gullible. The plan she'd told Tyler was to set them free, and like the good Alpha that he was, he'd felt obligated to do so. So as far as Tyler was concerned, this was why she'd spent all summer with him helping the hybrids break the sire bond.

Of course the real reason was far more sinister, but Tyler didn't need to know that just yet. The spell required twelve hybrids to be sacrificed. She had thirteen including Tyler, but she'd become close to him, she couldn't do that to her friend and offer him up for sacrifice. Instead, she was going to give him the heads up to get out of town at the last minute. In the meantime, someone was needed to commit the sacrifice, someone who would have no issue in killing twelve people, innocent or not and was capable of taking on twelve hybrids. Her choice had been simple, Klaus. Break the sire bond, tell him what the hybrids had done, then round them up and lead them to the right spot, just like lambs to the slaughter, and Klaus would do what needed to be done. All she had to do now was tell Klaus what the hybrids had done, which was why she was sitting on the bench in the middle of the town square, waiting for him.

The idea of encasing Tyler in cement had been hers. She wanted to keep him away and for it to appear that he had nothing to do with the plot to end Klaus. However his scatter-brained bimbo of a girlfriend had gotten herself all worked up into a tizzy and had managed to find a viable alternative to her suggested plan. Hayley knew that for her plan to work and to keep Tyler safe, she needed to delay him. To ensure her plan worked, a few minutes earlier she'd texted him to tell him the witch had been delayed and had moved the meeting later by another half an hour. That way Tyler would be by her side, waiting for a witch that would never come whilst Klaus sacrificed the other hybrids.

"Thank you for your message." Hayley heard a voice from behind, breaking her from her thoughts and making her jump, the British accent gave away the identity of the speaker. "I'm just interested to know how you got my number?" he asked as he walked around the bench to face her.

"I got it from your hybrid, Adrian, I stole his phone." she snapped. "I think there's something you need to know." she whispered, standing up and looking around to check if there were any other vampires in sight, but she couldn't see one.

"Go on love. I don't have all day to chit chat." Klaus smiled as the made their way into the crowds.

"It's about your hybrids." Hayley told him. "Last night I found out Tyler helped them break the sire bond. They're meeting out in the woods tonight to take you down."

"Including Tyler?" Klaus asked.

"He was only involved in breaking the sire bond. They asked him to be their Alpha once the bond was broken, but they lied and the girl Kim is the real Alpha." Hayley lied. "It was her idea to take you down."
