KLAUS’ MANSION

klaus pov

(Klaus is packing up things around the house while Rebekah talks to him.)

“Alaric Saltzman just tried to kill me” rebekah says. “Alaric Saltzman is supposed to be dead” i tell her confused. “Well, he’s not and he’s a vampire thanks to mother’s spell with a white oak stake that can’t kill him. He’s strong, Nic. Too strong” she tells me. “Where is he now?” i demand. “He’s stuck at the school without a daylight ring, but as soon as night falls he’ll come after us. We need to leave now” she says. “Fine. I’ll collect Elena, we’ll be on our way” i tell her and go back to packing. “Forget Elena! You don’t need any more stupid hybrids!” she cries. “What I need is protection from Esther’s continued assaults against us” i yell. “We’ll protect each other, like we always have. Always and forever, Nic.” she whispers. “I’m not leaving without her” i tell her and she looks hurt. “I’m leaving now. You can either walk out that door with me or you are on your own” she says, i look at her but i don't say anything. “Fine. Trust your hybrids over your family. Let your spite be the death of you, see if I care” she says pissed and walks out of the room, walking into Tyler on the way out. “Move it, sire boy!” she snaps and disapears. “What’s her deal?” he asks. i stare at him and Tyler continues on into the room.)

 

3rd pov

The doorbell rings at the Gilbert house. Jeremy answers the door. Klaus is outside. “What the hell do you want?” he demands. “Now is that any way to treat a guest?” klaus asks and Stefan comes up behind Jeremy. “What are you doing here, Klaus?” stefan asks. “Well, for starters, young Jeremy here could show some manners and invite me inside” he says and Damon walks over to the door. Stefan moves in front of Jeremy. “Why don’t you go up to your room?” stefan says to jeremy. Damon looks at Jeremy “Now” damon demands. Jeremy sighs and walks up the stairs “Hm, poor lad. Loses one questionable father figure only to be replaced by the likes of the two of you.” klaus says. “Yeah, about that. Something happened” damon says. “Oh, I know all about my mother’s invulnerable little creation and that’s why I’m here. I’m leaving town, just need to pick up a few road trip necessities. Spare tire, flashlight, doppelgänger” klaus says and smiles. “Can’t help you there” damon says  and claps Stefan on the shoulder, pulls him back, and shuts the door on Klaus. Damon moves into the living room and Stefan goes towards the stairs. “Elena!” stefan calls.

Outside, Klaus paces the front porch. He stops and picks up the newspaper by the front door. Inside, Stefan walks up the stairs and into Alaric’s old room. Jeremy is here continuing to paint, but Elena is nowhere in sight. “Where is she?” stefan asks. “I don’t know, she was just here a few minutes ago” jeremy tells him. Stefan walks out of the room and down the stairs where he meets up with Damon. “Where is she?” damon asks stefan. “She’s not here” stefan tells him. “What do you mean she’s not here? Where did she go?” he asks and Bonnie walks into the living room. “What’s going on?” bonnie asks. Damon looks out the blinds and sees Klaus pacing with the newspaper still in his hands. “Klaus wants in, we have to keep him out” damon says then sees Klaus pull back his arm and throw the newspaper at the window. “Ah, duck!” he yells and the newspaper smashes through the window and flies into the living room. Damon ducks down; Stefan grabs Bonnie and they both duck. Klaus is still outside, waiting. “I think you’re probably gonna want to let me in!” klaus calls and walks over to a neighbor’s house with a white picket fence. He places his hands on the fence, he looks around. He sees a football and smiles. Back in the house, Bonnie, Jeremy, Stefan, and Damon are standing in the kitchen. “Elena’s car is gone” stefan tells everyone. “Why wouldn’t she tell anyone where she was going?” bonnie asks. Suddenly, the front door bursts open and the football flies in. Klaus walks up the porch with two fence pickets in his hands. He hurls one of the pickets into the house and it narrowly misses Damon’s head and gets stuck in the wall behind him. Stefan grabs Jeremy and Bonnie and pulls them down. “Get down!” stefan calls. “Missed me!” damon yells tauntingly and pulls the picket out of the wall and throws it back at Klaus. The picket just grazes over his shoulder. Klaus breaks the other picket in two and throws half of it at Damon again, instead he hits a picture and it breaks. “Missed me again!”he yells again and Klaus aims the last picket into the house. Stefan’s phone rings and he answers it. “Alaric” stefan mutters and Klaus comes back up to the house with a propane tank and a newspaper “torch”. Stefan comes up to the front door. “Put it out” he demands. “Come outside and make me” klaus taunts. Stefan steps outside. “Elena’s not here. Alaric has her and Caroline and he’s gonna kill them both unless you turn yourself over to him” stefan tells him and Klaus throws down the newspaper and the propane tank. “Now, I know you’re not asking me to walk into a certain death” klaus says “I really wish we could. But unfortunately, if Alaric kills you there’s a one in four chance that we die too” stefan tells hims. Damon walks out with a picket over his shoulder. “I’ll take those odds” damon says and Stefan looks at him And a hundred percent chance that Tyler dies” stefan tells him. “I’m good with that too” damon says. “Why don’t we just figure out a way to put Alaric down?” stefan sat exasperated. Klaus and Stefan are pacing outside and Damon is leaning against the picket. Klaus stops and turns around. “Okay, how about Damon sneaks in and distracts Alaric, while Stefan grabs Elena and carries her to safety?” klaus suggests. “Huh, that’s a great idea. What’s to stop me from getting killed instantly?” damon asks him. “Nothing” klaus says bluntly. Bonnie walks out of the house. “I might have an idea. My mom used a desiccation spell on Mikael that immobilized him for over 15 years. If I can get it, I might be able to use it on Alaric” she says. “If and might? Your words inspire such confidence” klaus says sarcastically. “I’ll get it. But even with the spell, we’ll need a lot of vampire muscle to take him down. Including yours” she says and Klaus turns around. “Just so we’re clear, the sun sets in about eight hours. If we don’t succeed before then, Elena will be dead, I’ll be gone, and the rest of you will be left to fend for yourselves” klaus says.
