The Vampire Diaries: Season Two
Natalia Mikaelson

    I stand, hidden perfectly by the trees as Klaus starts the ritual. First the werewolf, Jules, is killed. Then the vampire, Jenna.

    Stefan who had been stabbed in the back by Klaus wakes up just in time to watch the doppelgänger, Elena be killed too. I watch Elena's body fall to the floor.

    My heart aches for Stefan as he watches also, not being able to do anything. The fire diminishes to nothing but smoke. "I can feel it, it's happening". Klaus whispers.

    His bones start to break and he yells out in pain. A gasp falls from my mouth as he looks in my direction, his eyes burn a bright yellow. I know he can't see me since I'm hidden but my body still goes up in flames.

    Klaus yells as his body is thrown through the air by Bonnie's magic. Thunder cracks the sky and I can't help but feel the tiniest bit of amusement as Klaus's witch just looks around her shocked.

    Damon appears behind her, snapping her neck and I vamp to Stefan. "Stay still". I order as I grab the broken wooden stake. Stefan breaths heavily in pain and i quickly rip it out.

    Damon brings over Elena and I just walk away heading over to Bonnie and Klaus. Klaus's eyes move from Bonnie to me. Shock covers his face.

    "Natalia". He whimpers and I force any feelings I have for him to the back of my mind. Elijah vamps to stand in front of Klaus and Klaus tore his eyes away from mine to look at his brother.

    I walk closer wanting to hear their conversation better. Between the thunder and the roar of the fire I can barely hear a damn thing.

    "Elijah?" Klaus whispers breathlessly.

    "Hello, brother". Elijah says evenly. Elijah leans down quickly and punches his hand through Klaus's chest, making him roar in pain. I flinch. "In the name of our family, Niklaus".

    "I didn't it bury them at sea". Klaus blurts out. My heart leaps into my throat at those words.

    "What?" Elijah hisses, just as surprised as I am.

    "Their bodies are safe". Klaus insists. "If you kill me, you'll never find them".

    "Elijah. Don't listen to him". Stefan begs. If there's even a chance... I drift off, thinking about seeing Kol and Rebekah again. What if there's a chance?

    "Elijah, I can take you to them". Klaus says. "I give you my word, brother".

    "Natalia?" Elijah asks. I open my mouth but I can't seem to form the words.

    "Do it and I'll take you all out". Bonnie distracts Elijah, making him look away from me to her.

    "You'll die". Elijah snaps.

    "I don't care". Bonnie grits out.

    "Brother". Klaus says. Elijah looks from Klaus to me. I nod.

    "Run". I mouth. He nods back. He looks over at Bonnie and Stefan.

    "I'm sorry". Elijah says.
