Ariel Forbes - The Vampire Diaries #Wattys2021

The Rager

Okay so I added a song to this chapter and it's dedicated to Ariel and Damon's friendship! I like to thank jataarya for the suggestion! All of you should thank this user as well!

Tyler and Carol arrive home, finding two men in the foyer.

"Who the hell are you two?"

"Tyler, it's okay. They're here for your protection."

"More deputies?"

"Not exactly." Klaus with Ariel and another person behind him, enter the room.

Tyler sighs. "They're hybrids."

"Sorry, Tyler. This was my idea."

"Ariel, really?"

"You got shot by a vampire hunter!"

"She's right. To be honest you should have stayed away from Mystic Falls even though I never gave you permission to leave in the first place."

"Nice to know that you care."

"I don't. Be grateful that someone as special as Ariel cares so much about you. Now consider them your new bodyguards. I'll be back later, princess." He lightly pinches her cheek causing her to smack his hand away. After he leaves, Tyler takes her hand and brings her into the parlor. After closing the door, he hugs her.

"You know you don't have to worry about me, right?

"Tyler, you got shot right in front of me and I was scared that you might have been dead." She pulls away from the hug and goes to sit on the couch. "And you're telling me not to worry?"

"Look at me. I'm good. But how about you? Matt told me you passed out on your way trying to get to me."

"I'm fine, it was just..." She thinks back to that vision she had. "...Tyler-" Her cell begins ringing and she answers, seeing it's Matt calling. "Yes, Matt?"

"Ariel, have you notice Jeremy been acting weird?"

"Weird how exactly?"

"We met this guy back the day of the memorial and Jeremy was talking about the guy's tattoo."

"And?"

"There was no tattoo there, Ariel. Or at least from what I saw."

She sits up, seemingly knowing what Matt is talking about. "What did the guy look like?" After getting the details from Matt, she hangs up.

"What's wrong?"

"I think I may have just found out who this hunter is... I'll be back in a little bit."

She goes upstairs and goes inside into the office. After sitting down on the desk chair, she calls Jeremy. "Where are you?" 

"Umm, with Matt..."

"Don't lie to me, Matt just called me... You're with the vampire hunter, aren't you? Matt told me about what you saw."

"Damn it..."

"Stay away from him, Jeremy."

"That's kinda hard to do, Ariel. He showed up at school!"

"Put him on the phone."

"What?"

"Put. Him. On. The. Phone."

"I don't think-"

"Now."

Jeremy sighs and hands the phone over to the vampire hunter. "May I ask who I am speaking to?"
