THE NEXT DAY SAM WAS IN THE MYSTIC GRILL. He was sitting at a table as he fiddled with his cup of whiskey before downing the shot. The place Sam was sitting at was a bit further from people because he hated hearing them chat and laugh obnoxiously.

Suddenly, Klaus sat down in front of him with a small glare. "You have 3 minutes or I'll kill you for wasting my time," Klaus greeted Sam in his own way causing Sam to look down at his drink with a smirk. "The time has started."

"Niklaus Mikaelson, did you know Elena Gilbert killed Connor?" Sam questioned as Klaus stared at a man who just called him, saying to meet up. Klaus was a paranoid person so anyone unfamiliar who wanted to meet seemed like a plot against him. "May I offer you whiskey?"

"Listen, my sister told me who you are and what you can do," Klaus mused leaning forward in his seat as Sam raised both of his eyebrows up.

"So she did tell you that I know everything about you," Sam commented calmly as Klaus hated that. He knew Sam was more dangerous than him and apparently he was on Elena's side. "Where is the lovely Rebekah? Oh, right. You stabbed her in the heart again."

Klaus was surprisingly calm as Sam leaned back before sighing deeply. "Unfortunately, Elena didn't listen to me. Not only did she took someone's life, causing her to feel incredibly hurt... She killed the hunter. But you know the price of killing someone like him, don't you?"

"Why am I here?" Klaus asked as Sam placed his arm on his chair's back with a smirk.

"Well... Since Elena acted rebellious against me... I decided to be a little rebellious as well," Sam said so Klaus laughed dully. "Stefan thinks you want the cure for Elena so you could create more hybrids when in reality all you want to do is-"

"I think I know what I want to do with the cure," Klaus interrupted Sam, who narrowed his eyes. "What do you want from me?"

Sam's face turned serious. "Elena will die and you know it. As much as I'm angry, I still care about her well being. It's weird, don't ask. She's already hallucinating and I feel her confusion and madness. The Salvatore brothers are two idiots fighting for her, which is frustrating... I feel like you need to take matters into your own hands until the new hunter is awakened and she's fine."

"And what's in it for me?" Klaus asked as Sam knew he'd ask that. "Why should I trust you? You're changing sides pretty quickly."

"I'm not changing sides," Sam smirked bitterly. "I'm just choosing the best option for me and Elena. And... To answer the first question, Stefan believes you want the cure for Elena so he'd be really confused as to why you aren't helping. And you need a new hunter, who is Jeremy Gilbert."
