Chapter 5 Hunt, Atlanta and 50's

Skyeward MusicLover : Thanks.

Fae0306 : Thanks.

salllzy : I am glad you liked it, and if you liked it you will like what I have in store.

syed : I totally agree with you but it was needed for opening the tomb the easy way so It had to be destroyed.

Silvermane1 : Thanks.

yorushihe : I am glad you liked that but it isn't a vampire detecting tatoo, it is more of a way to keep the Gilbert watch from detecting her. I agree with you on the xenophobic wizards as seen with werewolves, giants, veela and so on in canon.

kylynnjen : Yes Iris' father is a toss up between Elijah and Klaus, I am more inclined to make Klaus her father currently but while in canon he became a father after having the curse lifted, here it is done so before the curse is lifted. But I have a plan for Elijah even f he isn't Iris' father...

Loving The Originals : While it would be tremendously funny Damon won't be compelled to do so by Iris, it will be more with broken neck that Iris will discipline Damon and Stefan when he needs to be, She is related to the originals after all.

Guest : Thanks.

ptl4ever419 : Thanks.

percyjacksonfan135 : Thanks Zach should return in around the time the brothers gave Elena the Boarding House to protect her from Klaus and the other Originals.

Flashback

Previously

"It was nice talking to you Jenna but I have to go would you tell Jeremy to come see me at school please?" said Iris before she left to hunt the Logan Vampire.

Now

-Iris Home-

Iris paced inside her own home wondering how the hell did Logan managed to turn, no scratch that she wondered who was stupid enough to slip that man vampire blood.

As she paced wondering what the hell she would do, her bell rang.

It was the Sheriff, who seemed to carry bad news.

"Excuse me to bother you Iris but we need to talk, there is another vampire in town." said the blonde woman.

"Are you sure?" asked Iris managing to look shocked despite already knowing so.

"Yes we found evidence of one, could it be the one that turned Vicky Donnovan?" asked the Sheriff.

"No I don't think so, that one bailed town, and when a vampire run away it is not to return a few days later, no that one must be new in town. You know what I shall see when will the next Vervain be ready, I will use that time to think of a strategy to draw him out in a place we could trap him in." said Iris.

"Thank you Iris, as our only Vampire slayer, you are this town only hope." said Caroline's mother before leaving Iris to her thoughts.

Iris decided to go to the Salvatore Boarding House, because someone needed a wakeup call.

-Salvatore Boarding House-

After making sure that Elena wasn't in the house, Iris barged in drawing the attention of Stefan and Damon.

"Ah there you are, we have a problem another vampire is in town." said Iris to wich Damon scoffed.

"So the badass Vampire need our help how touching." said Damon ignoring his brother's frantic shake of his head.

Iris blurred out of sight and slammed the elder Salvatore on the wall, holding him by the throat.

"Listen to me, we are in this whole mess because someone couldn't lay low! So whatever diabolical plan you have in that head of yours are gonna stop got it! I don't care that Your Sire is imprisoned in that tomb and that you want to free her, Yes I know and no don't look at your brother like that he didn't tell me, frankly you weren't that discreet. But that isn't our subject I know who this vampire is, Logan Fell, Yes that one. I don't need your help hunting him, I need you to hunt who the hell slipped him vampire blood got that, You were here in 1864 so you would know vampires from that time and after, so you are gonna search this town to find any face you know from back then got it!" growled Iris in Damon's ear.

"Yes...Got it." wheezed Damon as Iris still had her hand on his throat.

"Why do you need Damon out looking for any familiar face from back then?" asked a curious Stefan.

"Because I think! The only vampires who could have been interested in this little town are ones that already were there at some point, ourselves excluded it leaves only whatever survivor from 1864, that will either look for revenge or for the opening of the tomb." explained Iris drawing Damon's attention.

Iris let Damon go so he could talk but warned him with a look that he was on a very thin line.

"Okay I will help you." said Damon smiling now that he could have a way to free Katherine.

Iris sighed knowing Damon helped her only because that could serve his own plans, but Iris needed help and she knew she couldn't ask Stefan as she knew he was needed around Elena to keep that damm girl safe.

With a last glare sent Damon's way the woman pass by her house to fetch the vampire detecting watch wich would be needed in order to find Logan.

-That evening-

Iris was feeling frustrated as she hadn't found Logan Fell during the day, and now he could be anywhere.

Sadly Iris couldn't search any longer today as she had to go to school as the school was doing a "choose your career" night and she had to head a stand.

-Later High school-

Iris once more sighed as students didn't even had the decency to stop at her stand, it seemed she did this for nothing.

Only Jeremy Gilbert stopped by and it was to talk to her about he was doing better.

However the highlight of Iris evening was when Logan Fell had the gall to pass just in front of her, knowing absolutely no student would come to see her, she tailed the new born vampire.

She saw him talk to three people, show himself to Stefan, Elena and he even threatened the Sheriff.

After that he left, Iris still followed him, cursing herself for not having her invisibly cloak on her.

When she saw him talking to Caroline Forbes she knew she had to act soon or an innocent would be hurt.

She watched him slam Caroline's head on her window and drive away.

She followed them and once the car was far enough she intervened, neutralizing the vampire without killing him.

Making sure that the girl was alive, she then turned her attention to the vampire currently moaning in pain on the ground.

"So I had a very bad day meaning I am in a very bad mood, sadly for you that means you will suffer, so you better tell me who the hell turned you?" asked Iris to her would be victim.

"You did, you bit me remember." tried the vampire.

"How cute, now don't lie to me you need to have vampire blood in our system to turn, the only thing I did was kill you, so I repeat Who Turned You?" asked Iris one more time.

"I don't know, I just woke up buried on the side of the road." said the vampire slowly starting to feel very afraid of Iris's darkening face.

"I don't think so now we can do this the easy way where I compel you to give me the answers I seek, or we could do this the fun way where I hurt you until you give me the answers I seek, make no mistake you will answer me one way or the other." said Iris smiling at the thought of passing her nerves on Logan.

"The easy way then." said Logan while thinking 'Wow that bitch must be out of it even I know that a vampire can't get compelled!'

"Compelling it is!" sing songed Iris grabbing Logan's head and looking him in the eyes "Who turned you and for what reason?"

"The one who turned me is called Annabelle, She wants to open the tomb that is beneath the old church, she needed me to distract the Salvatore's brothers." said the compelled Vampire.

Iris smiled at that, but it was a smile that promised pain and lot of it for Damon should that tomb be opened.

"I thank you for your cooperation, now I hate to be the one to tell you this, but I told you so..." said Iris making a wooden stake appear out of thin air before slamming in Logan Fell's heart effectively killing the Vampire.

The hybrid then called the Sheriff.

"Sheriff yes I found your daughter, Don't worry she is safe and yes the Vampire is dead, I told you it was a new one, but I was surprised to find it was Logan." said Iris to the Sheriff.

"And the one who turned him?" asked the sheriff.

"Given that the only thing he seemed to know about vampire was what he already knew due to his membership on the council, I think that he was turned by the same vampire as Vicky Donnovan, he only completed his transition later." said Iris trying to keep the council blind about the presence of older vampire ho could be looking for revenge.

"That maybe so...Well thanks again Iris... Would you mind bringing my Daughter home?" said the Sheriff.

"Not at all." said Iris before hanging up and doing as she said.

Once the vampire brought the unconscious Caroline Forbes to her mother, her phone rang.

"Hi Iris it is your new best Friend Lexi, I am in Atlanta with my boyfriend in that bar I told you about, why don't you join me and we could talk about your mother, away from Damon and his ears." said Lexi over the phone.

"Why the hell not, I need the vacation anyway, I will come as soon as I can. See you." said Iris quickly rushing to her house.

-Iris Home-

"Kreacher, Teddy and I will be leaving town for the week end, you may resume your previous activity." said Iris to her House elf who was employed as a baby sitter.

With that said the mother went to look for her son to bring him with her as she needed to spent time with him.

"Teddy sweet heart how do you feel about going on a trip with Mommy?" asked the mother to her son.

"With Mommy?... Yippie, I am going with Mommy!" yelled the happy five years old as he wanted nothing more than to spend time with his mommy.

So the mother and son duo headed to Atlanta in a car Iris rented as she normally used her bike.

-On the road that night-

Iris was calmly driving through the night with her son sleeping in his car seat when she had to brake as the car in front of them turned over.

As Iris exited her car to see if the driver was alright she saw a vampire speed away as she approached the turned over car.

"Elena?!" said Iris shocked at seeing the girl in such an accident then as she thought about it she figured the vampire she just saw must have been involved.

"Ah Iris did you see someone on the road?" asked the girl somewhat weakly.

"Yeah come on let's get you out of here. Brace yourself." said the hybrid as she helped Elena get out of the car.

As soon as the girl was standing she fainted and would have hit the ground if not for Iris, The hybrid pushed the car on the side and called to signal the accident.

So Iris resumed her trip to Atlanta with her sleeping son and an unconscious girl in her front seat.

-On the road morning-

Elena woke up disoriented due to the accident she had during the night.

"What the...?" said the teenager as she woke up.

"So finally awake uh? Do you mind telling me what you wear doing on that road?" asked Iris.

"Where are we?" asked Elena instead of answering.

"Georgia, my guess is that you had a fight with Stefan, Only a boy could make someone do something as crazy as crash a car..." said Iris chuckling at her own wit.

"Georgia, but I can't be in Georgia!" said the brunette panicking.

"Calm down will you I called Jenna to tell her you were with me se she won't worry...Will you tell me what is going on between you and Stefan or should I call my cousin?" asked Iris looking at Elena over the rearview mirror.

"Don't call him! ...I found a picture of his ex girlfriend in his bedroom... I look exactly like her§" said Elena in anger and sadness.

Iris closed her eyes 'I need to have a talk with the brothers, They will ditch any thought about Katherine or I will make them forget about her!'

"So you found Katherine uh?"

"How did you..." started Elena shocked.

"Know, dear I am a Salvatore, I visited that house before Stefa came in town, I saw Katherine's picture myself and before you say anything it wasn't my business to warn you, and frankly would you have listened to me?" said Iris explaining to Elena how could she know much about the Salvatore family history.

"No..."

Now that was said the ride to Atlanta finished in silence.

-Atlanta Bree's bar-

Iris, Elena and Teddy entered the bar, the two females were surprised when they saw the way the bar was crowded.

Elena was shocked when she saw Lexi, who she thought was still in New York with a man at her arm, man who looked at the blonde vampire as if she was the most precious thing he ever saw.

"Iris!" called the blonde vampire.

"Lexi good to see you, so how was Bon Jovi?" asked Iris knowing the blonde liked listening to the man's music.

"It was awesome, I would have liked to be with Stefan but alas he preferred to stay in Mystic Falls to be with his girl...Oh Elena I didn't see you...What are you doing here?" said Lexi surprised at seeing Elena here without Stefan.

"She saw a picture of Stefan's ex." said Iris before Elena could even open her mouth.

Lexi's eyes widened in realization as she too was surprised when she first saw Elena.

"Oh sweetie, Do you need me to come and knock some sense into that idiot?" asked Lexi looking out for the girl.

"No that will be fine I can take care of myself, I just need to figure out my feelings for Stefan." said the teenager.

"You are right, say Elena would you mind watching my son and making sure he behaves, Lexi and I need to talk." said Iris.

Lexi and Iris went to talk privately with the bartender who seemed to know the blonde very well, Elena, Teddy and Lexi's boyfriend stayed behind.

"Oh my you look just like Lily!" said a dark skinned woman in amazement.

"Of course she does, Iris here is Lily's daughter! So Bree the thing is Iris was born a vampire and she is looking for her father as her mother passed away." explained Lexie to her witch friend before leaving them to discuss privately.

"Lily's daughter?! Born a vampire?! Oh my?!" said Bree looking shocked.

"What do you remember about my mother? From what I got from a letter she left me in her will, She went to America to find her real father after she found family in Mystic Falls, she travelled around the country and met my father in a one night stand." said Iris explaining what she desperately needed information about her father to know where she came from.

"Hmm I remember when your mother was here sweetie but while she did met Lexie, she never met any men here especially a vampire... But I may be able to help you, you see I am a witch so if you would let me have a piece of your hair I could do a spell to find your father or any relative he might still have." said Bree.

"A witch you said.. A wiccan one or a wand using one?" asked Iris curious a seeing a witch so far from any wizarding community.

"Oh You know your witches I am a wiccan witch." said the dark skinned witch shocked that a vampire would know about the different magic users.

"Can you keep a secret, my mother was a wand using witch and so am I." said Iris feeling she could trust that woman.

"Oh my...could you be...no never mind I am mistaking you for something else." said Bree lost in thought and shocked that a vampire could also be a witch.

"Here is a strand of my hair for your spell." said Iris giving the woman a strand of hair.

"Thanks it will take me sometime to do the spell stay around until tonight and I should have something for you." said Bree.

"So how did it go?" asked Lexie curious.

"You didn't hear us?" asked Iris in return.

"Nah I am not Damon no I listened to Elena and Lee's talk about vampire/human love." said Lexi.

"Fine I'll know by tonight." said Iris.

"You know what? You never introduced your son to me so how about we, and by we I mean you, your son, Elena, Lee and I go upstairs to wait for the night, there you could introduce us to your son." said Lexi to her friend.

"Why not it will pass the time, by the way I noticed that you don't have any daylight ring, If you want I could ask someone to make one for you." said the hybrid as she wanted her friend to be able to visit her without raising suspicion.

"Now that you said it, it is true that in some place that could have been useful, and how did you found yours?" asked the blonde vampire.

"My mother made it for me before she died, She was a witch and so am I so I have no problem making rings for you and your boyfriend." said Iris.

"Wow a witch you?! Awesome you are a badass hybrid aren't you!" laughed Lexi glad to be friend with such a person.

-That night Bree's bar-

After spending the day upstairs, with everyone Elena felt better as Lexi and Iris comforted her and once more proposed to go and knock some sense into Stefan's head.

Lexi and Lee got to know Teddy and liked him very much, the three of them distracted Elena with their antics as Iris needed the time to create the two vampires day light rings.

Iris was downstairs waiting for Bree, when the wiccan witch came in she seemed shaken.

"What were the results?" asked Iris extremely curious to see the results of the spell.

"What do you want, the good news or bad news first? Ah hell Good news you have family from your father's side but I couldn't get a clear reading of their location but by my guest you have a father and either an aunt or uncle still walking on." said Bree still shaken by the spell as she had to use great amount of power to even find this much.

"Thank you Bree I won't forget what you did for me." said Iris tears in her eyes as this meant she had family somewhere and she won't rest until she met those.

"Your welcome but let me warn you both your father and relative were under spell protection, powerful ones at that, only dangerous people use this kind of spell to hide from their foes." warned the witch.

"Don't worry I can take care of myself thank you." kindly said Iris.

After than Lexi and Lee went to travel around and wanted to use their new rings to their fullest, Elena, Iris and Teddy went back to Mystic Falls.

-Mystic Falls-

Elena had come to terms with her obvious relationship with Katherine and started to investigate her birth, Jenna told her she was adopted and that her mother's name was Isobel.

Iris went to the Salvatore Boarding house after getting Teddy home.

-Salvatore Boarding House-

Inside the girl found Damon lounging around.

"Ah sweet Iris, how is the search going on did you find dear Logan?" asked Damon a glass of blood in the hand.

"Logan is old news, I staked him a few days ago." deadpanned Iris seeing that Damon had only one thing in mind freeing Katherine.

"Aww I am hurt you dealt with him and didn't think of informing me." said Damon feigning being hurt by Iris's words.

"Don't play with me, let's make a deal as obviously you didn't find Fell's maker." proposed Iris seeing Damon frown at her words.

"What do you have in mind?" asked Damon despite not wanting to deal with Iris.

"You are obsessed with getting Katherine free, I know it, Stefan knows it, so until you succeed it is the only thing you'll have in mind so I am going to help you. BUT You better make sure she behaves once freed or I'll kill her myself!" warned Iris.

"Fair enough, as we will leave town as soon as she will be able to." said Damon happy to have help.

"Now Fell said his maker was called Annabelle and that she wanted to open the tomb, do you have any idea why would she want this, as Katherine is the only one in this tomb right?" asked Iris seeing Damon cringe at her words.

"Well...Emily the one who did the spell possessed her descendant Bonnie and told me all 27 vampires were in the tomb when she thwarted my last try." said Damon.

"Great, you better find Emily's grimoire because there should be a trick in there that could allow you to free Katherine and only her from this tomb." said Iris.

"Emily's grimoire?" asked a curious vampire.

"Yes you know where a witch put the spells she invented in." replied Iris rolling her eyes.

"Ok I will try to find the book and Annabelle, I think I know why she wants to open the tomb." said Damon as he left the house.

"Great I should get ready for that damm 50's party." grumbled the hybrid as she was once more put as Chaperon along with the other newbie Alaric Saltzmann.

-That evening Party location-

Thanks to Kreacher's help Iris was able to find a dress that belonged to her step-grandmother Dorea Potter.

The black dress looked quite good on her.

And so began a long evening of boredom for Iris who wanted nothing more than to go and play with her son.

'If only Lexi was here then it would be fun but now it is just boring' thought Iris as the only thing that was interesting was spying Jenna and Alaric making fool of themselves as they try to deny what they felt for the other.

Iris inwardly cheered when the man asked her godmother for a date, she became concerned when she heard Jeremy talking with a girl she didn't know about his forefather's journal and more when she overheard someone threatening Elena over the phone.

She discreetly followed the girl into what looked like the cafeteria.

She watched as the two struggled a bit, she was impressed at Elena's quick thinking when she stabbed her attacked with a pencil.

However Elena was overpowered and about to get killed when Iris intervened beating the Salvatore's brother by seconds.

As the vampire was thrown away from Elena, the teenager was able to see that it was Iris that saved and not Stefan as she previously thought.

"Who the hell are you?" rudely asked the vampire.

"Someone you just managed to piss off, and please note that I am a proud redhead meaning you shouldn't anger me." said Iris calmly despite visibly shaking with anger, she was so angry that she didn't notice the Salvatore brothers watching her and neither did she notice the other vampire.

"Aww really and what will a pathetic human like you will do, you managed to throw me because I was caught by surprise." said the vampire arrogantly.

"Really..." drawled Iris.

"Yes now you should know your place bitch and let me kill that girl that looked like Katherine!" ordered the vampire.

In their hiding places the three vampires watching the place cringed in fear as they watched Iris stilled.

"What's your name?" asked Iris as one of her eyebrow gained a tick.

"Noah, but I don't get it why would knowing my name be of any importance to you?" asked Noah curious.

"You will see, now scream for me Crucio!" said Iris as a wand appeared in thin air.

Everyone watched with wide eyes as Noah started to scream and he started to writhe in pain on the ground.

The Salvatore brothers were worried that people would notice something was up as Noah was quite loud, as soon as they exited the cafeteria the noise stopped, when they reentered the noise resumed.

Iris smiled luckily she had rigged a silence ward keeping any sound from exiting the room.

When she found that Noah screamed enough she stopped her spell, the vampire laid on the ground still shaking from pain residual.

With a small amount of legilimency Iris saw that this vampire was invited inside the Gilbert's house so leaving him alive was impossible.

Iris approached the quivering vampire, raised him and slammed her hand through his chest ripping out his heart, letting the body fall on the floor she glared at it and it caught fire, she threw the heart into the pyre getting rid of any evidence.

All those who witnessed the execution had on thought in mind 'HOLY SHIT!'.

Iris turned to Elena who seemed afraid of her, seeing this Iris sighed as once more her temper got the better of her.

"Ah, it seems I overdid it a little but please don't tell anyone about what you saw, I wouldn't like to compel you to forget." said Iris at Elena who dumbly nodded to shocked to say anything else.

Iris then left to wash her hand.

Alaric who came by and witnessed only the end was impressed by Iris, to be able to burn a body to ashes with just a look was something any hunter would die to have.

-Iris home-

Iris threw up as soon as she came home, because while she killed some death eaters in the war she never ripped the heart out of someone before, and frankly what frightened her was that she somehow liked doing it and the way it made her feel.

She steeled herself by reminding her that he needed to die anyway and that he obviously was a bad guy as he hurt Elena just because she looked like Katherine.

Getting an idea she fetched the resurrection stone and called Noah's soul to her. (Explanation time : The resurrection stone alone can only bring shade of people but when you are the master of death you can call the whole soul of people)

"What the... You...No Stay away... You already killed me what do you want?" said the frightened soul of Noah.

"You see I am what is called the Master of Death meaning that if I was a mere human I would be immortal but more importantly for you, I can either resurrect you, erase you or make you pass on to be reincarnated. So you have only one minute to convince me to make you pass on otherwise I will erase you." said Iris to Noah's soul.

"Ok As soon as I died I looked into the tomb to look for Katherine and she wasn't there so I tried to look for her around the country and found her having fun in some city it is the truth I swear, this is the only thing that could interest you!" said Noah.

"Hmm While the info is appreciated for it's worth that wasn't what I meant when I said convince me to not erase you, I meant beg for forgiveness for what you did to my friends so goodbye Noah." said Iris before waving the Elder Wand at Noah's soul.

"NOOOOO!" roared Noah as his soul exploded erasing him from existence.

-Somewhere in America-

"Sir someone tried to break through the spell used to protect you from your brother." said a dark skinned middle aged man.

"Hm What of it?" asked a well dressed man in an English accent his face shrouded in shadows.

"Well we traced the spell to the witch who used it, it was one in Atlanta and somehow she used biological pieces of someone related to you as anchor for her spell." said the dark skinned man.

"From my brother?" asked the other man.

"No it was from someone else."

"Interesting I will investigate, I will call you if we need to change our plans." said the unknow man.

'If not by brother Who could look for me?' thought the unknow man.

-Mystic Falls around the Mystic Grill-

The vampire that spied on Iris was Annabelle who went by Anna, shocked at Noah's demise she went to see her other ally Ben to warn him and tell him it was time to move on the witch.

To be continued...
