Now I get Jacob his feelings towards me, I really do. The feeling that gnaws at you, telling you that you should get revenge. That you should make the other person beg you for their life while you do exactly what they did to your loved ones.

I want to kill Jacob more than ever. I want him to pay for he did to Dave. I want to hear his last breaths as he falls to the ground. I want to be the one to end him.

"I can't- I don't want to go further without him." Klaus cries as he doesn't let go of Dave's hand that he's been holding the entire time.

I don't know how long we've been here, crying. I don't know where anyone is, hopefully still hiding behind the car. I don't even know how the smoke disappeared this quickly, because it seems like it's only been ten minutes or so. But I know, deep down, that it's been longer than that.

I know that Jacob has been laughing at us as we cried. I know that he thinks that he has won, but he has not. I will not let him win. Dave his death will not be for nothing. Jacob will pay for what he has done.

I know that I've got to go, but I cannot let Klaus alone like . . . this. Not in the middle of everything, not in the middle of the battleground. But I also know that Klaus won't leave Dave's body, because that's all it is now, a body.

"Klaus, I have to go." I look at my friend who looks like a true mess, which is normal. I understand him and feel his pain. He's my friend. I won't let him go through this alone. I won't let Klaus down like that.

"Yes..." he nods "Go, please, kick his ass." A thin smile appears on my lips as he says that. How can he be this strong? Surely all he feels is nothing but sadness?

"I will. I'll ask someone to come with you so you aren't alone. Diego is fine, that's what Lila told me. I'm sure he can come." I tell Klaus as I turn my back on him to go to the others.

"No, you won't do such thing. I'm fine. I'll stay here with," he pauses "with Dave alone. I won't endanger anyone else."

I hesitate for a moment because I know that it's dangerous. I don't want to leave him unprotected, but I have to in order to be sure that everyone is safe. To remove the one factor that's threatening everyone's happy ever after.

"Next time that I'll see you, Jacob will be dead." I tell Klaus but he doesn't nod, like he's unsure. I ignore him not commenting and shake it off. I need to fully concentrated.

Again, I turn my back on Klaus but I don't plan on going to the others. No, I plan to go straight to Jacob. He stands there with a smug look on his face as his eyes follow me with every step I take.

"How is..." Jacob trails off, not even wanting to know the answer because he knows Dave is dead and he did it.

"You should shut your fucking mouth! You killed Dave! I will-" I scream at him but my eyes widen when Jacob does go to the side, revealing Five.

My mouth falls open when I see that Five is tied up and therefore he can't spatial jump. This is why I couldn't find him. This is why he didn't come to me. He's been caught by Jacob.

While Jacob looks pleased with his actions, Five looks murderous. He clearly isn't happy with he fact that he's been taken captive by Jacob. I do have to admit that it does sound funny to me. Something that I'll have to joke with when everything is back to normal. If we both survive.

"I've stumbled across someone while listening to your cries." Jacob says, still with the smug face that's irritating Five oh so much "I remember you talking about him to yourself back at the commission. You were trying to convince yourself that it would be okay. That you would see him again. Oh, I remember very well."
