Indebted - The Vampire Diaries (The Hunter Book 1)

Chapter 19 - 'Make Him Into A Hybrid For Me.'

Wolfgang Nachtstern walked through the halls of Mystic Falls High, searching for Bonnie Bennett. The sooner he found her, the sooner Klaus figured out why his hybrids weren't working. And then, Wolfgang could extricate himself from the mess of the Mikaelson family, disappear for another twenty years or so and figure out what the hell was going on between him and Katerina Petrova. 

Klaus walked beside him as they approached the sound of a girl laughing. A door opened and Elena Gilbert walked through, her gaze focused behind her. However, she quickly turned around when she found herself face-to-face with the hybrid.

"There's my girl," Klaus said with a smirk. Elena's eyes widened, panic overtaking her as she began to grasp the fact that Klaus knew she was alive. "Klaus!" Elena breathed out in shock before she turned around and tried to run, but collided instead with Wolfgang, whose lips curved upwards into his signature smirk. 

"You are supposed to be dead. What are we going to do about that?" Klaus grabbed hold of Elena's arm and marched her through the school hallways and towards the gym. The hybrid shook his head, looking down at her.

"You put a rather large kink in my plans, sweetheart." Klaus explained, "The whole point of breaking the curse and becoming a hybrid was to make more hybrids. I haven't been able to do that."

"Now my bet is, it has something to do with the fact that you're still breathing," Wolfgang added. Elena looked at the two, noticing how in sync they were. There was just no way she could escape them. "If you're going to kill me, just do it!"

"Not until I know I'm right." Klaus replied, his eyes looking around for the gym door, "But I do have ways of making you suffer." The Mikaelson pulled her into the gym. A few students were there setting up pranks and Wolfgang stepped forward as he spoke. "Attention, seniors. You have officially been caught." The Nachtstern announced, "Prank night is over. Go home."

Klaus looked around, noticing Dana and another student. He moved closer to them, his pink lips twisted into a smile as he let Elena go. "You two. I remember you." Klaus said and Dana looked at him, eyeing the Original Hybrid warily, "I'm sorry. Who are you?"

"Oh, don't worry, I wasn't in my right head last time we met." Klaus said before he met her gaze, compelling her, "Lift your foot up, please, Dana." The student complied, lifting her foot in the air as she tried to balance on the other. Wolfgang turned to look at the boy, grinning sadistically as he compelled him, "If she drops her foot, I want you to beat her to death. Understood?"

Chad nodded, freezing as he turned to look at Dana, waiting for her to drop her foot so he could carry out his task. Elena shook her head, turning to look at Klaus and Wolfgang desperately. "Don't, Klaus. You don't have to hurt anybody." Elena reasoned but Klaus shook his head, his lips curving upwards into a smile, "Oh, come on, love. Of course I do."

"This is fun, right?" Bonnie asked. She and Matt were putting toilet paper on the swimming pool, preparing their pranks as Wolfgang slipped into the room silently, regarding the witch as she worked. Bonnie stood up, looking at her friend. Matt shook his head, looking at her, "You sound like Caroline."

"Come on, I am embracing her philosophy." Bonnie countered, pausing as she looked at Matt. Wolfgang watched from the shadows, waiting to make his appearance, "You should be more into this."

"I know. Where's Jeremy tonight?" Matt asked and Wolfgang frowned. Which one was Jeremy and what did this person have to do with Bonnie? "I haven't talked to him all day. We're having, um..." Bonnie started before she inhaled, steeling her nerves before she spoke, "He, uh, he told me about seeing Vicki."
