Chapter 8

The man on the floor laid there for a few more minutes before leaning sideways with the sound of cracks echoing through the small room. I let out a gasp before moving away while Elena being my crazy sister stayed next to him.

"Elena are you fucking insane... Why am I even asking that of course you are" I nearly yelled but the man stood up and tried to run out the room. "I can't be in this house" he said out of breath. I looked confused and I hate to admit it, but I felt bad for the poor guy.

He ran out the room crashing into the wall before dashing up the stairs. I looked at Elena before running up the stairs with Elena behind me. When we had gotten there, the man was on the floor panting looking at Elena with a death stare.

WHAT THE HELL DID SHE DO

The man tried to get through the door but he was stopped. "What happened" He groaned out but Elena shushed him. The man looked at me in shock. "Not here" Elena whispered out pointing upstairs. "Can I trust you" She asked him. That seemed to piss him off. "Can I trust you" He replied back, with anger filling his eyes.

Elena stared at him before looking around. Like she was seeing if Stefan or Damon could hear us talking, she took a deep breath and handed the dagger to the man. "Whoa Elena what the hell are you doing, you guys daggered him for a reason didn't you" I whispered staring at the man unsure.

"His name is Elijah and he can help stop Klaus" She said with hope in her eyes. I shook my head and sighed. "This is a horrible idea" I said rolling my eyes. The Elijah guy slowly took the dagger. "Let's go" Elena said as she walked out the house.

I followed behind her and got into her car. We drove for a good ten minutes before pulling up to a side walk and stopping. Elena looked over at Elijah while he just drank his blood bag. I had nothing to say so I just sat back and ignored everything.

"you look better" Elena said breaking the silence. He looked like he was in no mood to deal with Elena, "Where did you get the dagger" he asked not looking at Elena.

"I'll tell you everything, but we have to work together Elijah, I need your word"

Elijah looked down as if her just saying that would bring shame to that sentence. "Your ability to make demands are long past" he said clearly upset.

One question popped into my head.

Why the hell is that Elijah guy so handsome?

"No demands, I'm offering you my help and in return I want yours" Elena said looking at him. Elijah looked like he was thinking about this but I knew he needed a lot more convincing.

"Same reason you haven't killed me, you need my help to kill Klaus" Elena said causing me to raise my eyebrows.

"Don't get too cocky Elena" I thought.

Elijah was about to say something but Elena's phone rang. "Oh someone's in trouble" I said with a smile. Elena looked at me and rolled her eyes.

Elena answered the phone and I took this opportunity to ask some questions. "Hi I'm Marie, Elena's twin sister" I said sticking out my hand for him to shake. He shook my hand and nodded his head, as if he was fimilar with me.

"Elijah Mikaelson" he said. I nodded my head and smiled. "You know Klaus, right?" I asked. Elijah nodded his head. "Does he put stuff in people's head, make them see things" I asked. "Yes, one of his favorite tricks, plays with their minds for his enjoyment" Elijah said.

Elena had finished her phone call and turned towards Elijah. "Klaus took over Ricks body" Elena said trying to get help. "Of course, one of his favorite tricks" Elijah sighed out.

"he has too many tricks for my liking" I said sitting back rolling my eyes.

"Okay I understand you have questions, but I do too, one being why does he like me so much" I asked. Elijah looked at me shocked then disappointed. "Let's go someplace else so no one can hear us" Elena said before driving off.
