To the afterlife and back

Declan

Klaus's POV 

It's now December, being three weeks since the gender reveal. I'm actually really excited for Christmas, being with my family. And being with Hayley, just not publicly. She is asleep next to me right now, and she is making a cute little noise every five seconds. I love having her here, being with her. I just can't get enough of it. What is happening to me? Where has the 'big bad wolf' that I have been called before gone? Hayley has made me this gooey person. I don't like being like that with other people, apart from Hope, but now I'm like it with Hayley and it's actually nice. I don't have to be on my guard all the time. She understands me and I understand her. 

I hear a loud noise and talking coming from somewhere in the compound, but I ignore it. Probably one of my siblings turning up and destroying the place. I get more comfortable, bringing Hayley closer to me. Another louder crash happens and this time, I don't feel too good about it. I carefully get out of bed, and put some jeans on, walking out of the door, making sure to shut it and look over the railing. 

"WHERE IS HE!" A man shouts and I see Leah standing there, terrified. 

"What is going on?" I ask loudly and they both turn to me. "Where is Elijah?" I ask her and she just points. As I walk downstairs, I see Elijah on the floor, unconscious. 

"Just the man I was looking for. Niklaus Mikaelson." He says and smirks. My eyes widen as I recognise him. 

"Declan." I whisper. 

"Ahh, so you remember me." He steps closer as I reach the bottom of the stairs. 

"What are you doing here?" I ask him, glancing at Leah to see if she is ok. 

"Well, since I got turned recently, my memories have come back. Hope throwing you across the kitchen where I worked. Elijah being attacked by Hope. You. Elijah telling me what you are. I remember everything." He says and I sigh. 

"You turned." 

"Yes. Some group found me and made me drink their blood. They then snapped my neck and here we are. They gave me this ring though, which is quite handy." He says and holds up his hand. 

"Snapped your neck? Klaus, what is going on?" Leah asks me. 

"Nothing. Don't worry." I say and give her a small smile. 

"Let me guess. She another one of your partners. You got with my cousin and then turned her. Then you let her die, didn't you. Your going to do the same thing to her?" He spits at me. 

"No. I loved Camille. There was nothing I could do." He vamps at me and pins me to the wall. 

"LIES! I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE! A MONSTER! YOU MADE HAYLEY ONE TOO!" He throws me across the room, and I land with a thud to the wall. As I stand up, I see Elijah wake up and he looks at me, anger in his face. 

"Declan. Let's talk about this someplace else." I start, but he isn't listening. 

"Your sister said she died of a car crash, but your family made that up didn't you. Like Cami's death. How did my girlfriend die? How did my cousin die? I WANT ANSWERS!" I can see tears in his eyes, and I don't know what to say. 

"Declan." Elijah says, standing up. 

"YOU! YOU TOLD ME THAT VAMPIRES AND WITCHES EXIST, AND THEN WIPED IT AWAY! YOU FORCED ME TO MOVE ON AND FIND PEACE WHEN I WASN'T READY!" He then chargers at Elijah and throws him. He then turns to me. "YOU HAVE RUINED INNOCENT PEOPLE'S LIVES AND THEY ARE COMING FOR YOU! THEY ARE COMING FOR YOUR FAMILY AND YOUR DAUGHTER!" He shouts, and that's when I lose it.  

I charge at him and start punching him. I'm too focused on him to see other people come in. A sharp pain goes through my body, and I see a wooden steak go through my stomach. I pull it out and look at the others.
