DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE TWILIGHT OR TVD CHARACTERS.

Bella's POV

I look down at my kindle as I watched Tanya circle around mausoleum. "My dear Bella, I have been watching you from afar. I couldn't decide on my revenge after you somehow evaded death from wolf's venom, but as humans say 'All good things come to those that wait' or something like that." Tanya said.

She walked over to the crypt and pushed the top off, revealing Mikael. Tanya leaned down, but not to close. Elijah was leaning against the counter, gripping it tightly. "Hello, Mikael. I have heard so many things about you. Its like I practically know you already." Tanya said.

"That's funny. I don't recount knowing many whores in my lifetime." Mikael deadpanned. I had to pause the video, because I was laughing so hard. I had to steady myself against the counter to keep from falling over.

"At least Mikael is a good judge of character. Oh God, that is classic one. I remember that one."I said. My laughing ceased when I noticed my dad's look. Definitely not fun and games kind of mood. "Bella, this is serious. I see no humor in any of this. Mikael is running around Forks. Do you realize, besides us, that the Cullens is the only residing vampires in this town?" Elijah said.

I was about to ask why that was important until I remembered Mikael's particular diet. I already had the door opened, but was pulled back by Elijah. I tried to wiggle out his arms, but they were gridlocked. "What do you think you are doing, Bella?" Elijah said.

The coldness of his voice didn't faze me like it usually did. I had a one track mind and that was the Cullens, especially Edward. "I need to warn them! I won't let them get killed by my psychopathic grandfather!" I gritted that out.

"Well, that wasn't a very nice thing to say about family." A familiar voice said. That hint of British American tone rolling off my skin, leaving goosebumps.

Mikael appeared in front of the opened door. I was completely frozen to the spot to scared to make a sudden move.
"Mikael, lets not play childish games. They are beneath you." Elijah replied, remaining composed. I felt myself being pulled back behind Elijah.

"Elijah, you should learn your place. Your ego will get you in trouble." Mikael said. I leaned over to peek around my dad's body and saw Mikael pacing back and forth. My mind was racing and my heart is pounding ferociously. My breathing was picking up, but immediately calmed down when Elijah took hold of my hand.

"We both know what you want, Mikael and I'm not going to give it to you." Elijah said.

Mikael walked up to the door with his arms behind his back. Instinct, I pulled Elijah a step back with me. "Then, I will dagger you and torture Elena until she tell me where Niklaus is. Problem solved, my boy." Mikael said.

Why in the hell would he address as Elena? Weird. "Bella, this is not the time to over analyze things." I thought to myself. "Even if you dagger me, you will still be stuck in Forks. I had a witch cast a spell to keep you five miles radius of me." Elijah replied.

The smug smile slowly eased its way off Mikael face and burning rage filled his eyes. "Then, I will kill you!" Mikael said.

"Then, you will be forever be confined to the spot where you killed me. You will never be able to kill Niklaus. Simple as that, father." Elijah said. Silence took over at the moment. Both men standing their ground, not thinking about backing off. Waiting for each other to make the first move. All our heads snapped up, when we heard a car pull up the driveway. 

Edward's scent entwined with the air. I looked back at Mikael and knew he could hear my heart. That smug smile is back. He started to back away steadily. "Elijah, if you want to play these childish games, I will definitely show you how low I can get." Mikael said. I moved from behind Elijah.
