chapter eleven
( the frost )☆★
JACK FOUND himself at the liquor station, cups on top of cups, a punch bowl filled with some alcohol drink the girls loved, and a giant bottle of whiskey along with beers. He grabbed a cup and filled it with a shot of whiskey, drinking it. It burned down his throat, bubbling in his stomach. He groaned and then took another shot, watching as everyone around him began going outside, till the house wasn't filled anymore.
He laughed to himself, "Fine more alcohol for me" he said to nobody, grabbing a beer and twisting the cap off. He walked through to the front door, beer in hand and then paused. Klaus was there at the door and Mikael was outside, Elena in his hands and some hybrid beside her. Oh right, the plan he thought.
"I'm calling your bluff, Father. Kill her" Klaus begged, anger and hatred in his voice.
Elena didn't look shocked, though Jack knew it wasn't Elena, it was Katherine. "Come outside and face me, you little coward, and I won't have to" Mikael taunted. Katherine caught sight of Jack nearby and slowly shook her head, not to alarm anyone. The doppelganger had a soft spot for him and now he was going to have to deal with Klaus's after rage if he didn't get out of there right now.
Jack saw Klaus tilt his head, his hands in a fist, trembling. "My whole life, you've underestimated me. If you kill her, you lose your leverage. So go ahead. Go on, kill her. Come on old man. Kill her" he ridiculed, "Kill her!" he yelled, his voice echoing through the mansion.
Mikael smiled, laughing in a psycho fit, "Ah. . .your impulse, Niklaus. It had, and will forever be, the one thing. . .that keeps you from truly being great" he mocked. Then he grabbed a knife and stabbed Katherine in the back, she fell to the ground, playing the part of Elena and pretending to die.
Klaus yelled in a fit of rage and pain, and the walls practically shook. Maybe it was because he was drunk but Jack actually felt bad for the hybrid. Out of nowhere, Damon sped with his vamp speed out behind Klaus, stabbing him with the white oak stake Mikael gave him. He fell to the ground and Katherine vamp sped behind Mikael, it was clear he had no idea about this part of the plan.
"Katherine. . ." Mikael grumbled in disgust.
Katherine smiled, turning to face the hybrids Klaus made and then she pulled out two Wolfspane grenades from her pockets, twisting off the top so they'd go off in six seconds. "Ka-boom" she smirked, throwing the two grenades at the group of hybrids.
Damon pulled out the stake in Klaus and went to stab him in the heart before Jack stepped out from the corridor he was hiding behind, he dropped his beer, the glass shattering. Before he could even comprehend what he was doing he held his hand out, slowly freezing Damon until he couldn't hold the stake anymore. Then without any knowledge he could, Jack used both hands and the stake came to him, right into his hand.
"What are you doing!" Damon yelled, Stefan, coming out of nowhere and holding him back so he couldn't hurt Jack out of anger.
Jack shook his head, "I-I don't know but I can't stop. No matter how annoying this hybrid is for some reason I c-can't let you kill him" he uttered out, not knowing how to explain the urge that overcame him, maybe he was just buzzed, but this thing was taking a hold of him.
Mikael turned around, a scowl on his face as Klaus slowly got up still in shock. "I knew, the moment I saw you I knew you were him. You abomination, you were dead, Henrik" he spat. Jack got shivers when he said his name. How did he know what his real name was?
Jack gulped, standing still for a moment or two while Stefan struggled to keep Damon down. Everything seemed to be going in slow motion. "Jack! now" Stefan yelled. "Now!".
Jack's heart sped up, he loosened his grip on the white oak stake and then threw it to Klaus who caught it with ease. Niklaus, who was just as shocked as Jack hearing Mikael calling him Henrik, sped into Mikael, stabbing him in the heart with the stake, quickly. He caught on fire and began burning to ashes.
Jack slid to the floor, bringing his knees up to his chest and wrapping his arms around them. He didn't just do that, did he? why on earth did I do that? he thought to himself. THEY'RE GOING TO KILL YOU, THEY HATE YOU, his mind screamed, repeating over and over. He saved the enemy, god what was wrong with him?
"What the hell did you do?" Damon spat walking up to him, "What the hell did you do!" he yelled in his face. Jack had his eyes wide open, staring at his hands that were shaking rapidly. "Jack what did you do!" he screamed, his voice echoing in his head.
Jack held his hand in front of his face, "I-I-I don't know, I don't know" he whispered, "I just I c- I couldn't stop" he whimpered. He looked up at Damon, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, Damon" he kept apologizing.
Damon huffed in anger and tried resisting punching the wall above Jack's head. Instead, he walked out of the mansion, leaving Jack behind. Stefan walked up to him and kneeled down to his height. "Hey-hey it's okay," he soothed, putting on a small smile, "You did what you needed to do, you couldn't help it" he assured, putting a hand on Jack's hand.
Jack nodded, shaking. "I did what I had to do, I-I did what I had to do" he slowly repeated, trying to slow his breathing down.
Stefan moved to the side and then Jack saw Klaus standing behind him, his eyes soulless, he looked broken. "Was what he said right?" he asked slowly, cautious, "H-Henrik, is that you?" he added, bending down to his height.
Having the hybrid so close to Jack should have made him scared, or angry, maybe both. But instead, he didn't care what happened, he knew it couldn't end up any worse than his friends, his family, leaving him.
He looked away, not being able to keep eye-contact. "I d-I don't know" he replied uneasily.
Stefan looked away, letting out a sigh as Klaus had just given him his freedom, undoing any existing compulsion. Klaus stared, he looked at Jack's face, everything but his hair matching up. His nose was the same, eyes the same color and he had the same bite mark scar on his neck.
Then, Klaus pulled him into a hug.
