"What are you doing?" Elijah asked.

Klaus turned around with a cocky grin on his face. He was leaving the school and cutting across the parking lot after just leaving Madeline. He didn't want to but for some reason she insisted. She did promise him however that she'd sneak around Elijah's watch and find him later that night.

"Well isn't it my dear brother? Spying on me are you?"

"You are not my brother," Elijah spat.

He watched this soulless creature lurk around in Nicklaus' body for centuries. It was a cruel and unjust form of torture for Elijah. He wanted his brother back but Madeline had no intention of letting that happen. Elijah had nothing to go on but he had hoped that if maybe Madeline was to be sent into the next plain with no hope of returning, the curse she placed on Nicklaus would lift and he'd return.

"Why do you keep saying that? Were we not both bore from the same woman?"

"Leave Caroline alone. She wants nothing to do with you," Elijah commanded.

"Oh brother, you have no idea what she wants. She wants me. She loves me. And don't think that just because you've broken our blood bond you're going to keep me from her."

"For someone who thinks they're so smart, you can be quiet blind Klaus. You can't even differentiate a sweet innocent girl from a vindictive manipulative bitch."

Klaus threw himself at Elijah for speaking so ill of his love. He gave him a few good punches before Elijah knocked him off as if he barely got a scratch. Klaus picked himself up with super speed and growled in distaste at Elijah.

"Do not speak of her like that," he yelled.

"I don't have time for this. Just do us both a favor a stay away from the girl," Elijah said before turning away. In a blink of an eye Klaus was left alone standing in the parking lot.


Caroline couldn't remember what had happened with Klaus. One minute Klaus was kissing her and had his hands all over her body and the next she was sitting back in her classroom. She had the sickest feeling in her stomach and she couldn't shake it at all.

Later in the night when she was home. She was lying on her bed reading a book. She had full attention drawn to the story that she was reading until a voice beckoned to her.

Caroline.

It was that woman's voice again.

Caroline sat up from where she laid and went to the long mirror that was hung against the wall. In the mirror she saw the reflection of the woman smiling wide at her. It was the first time that she could recall not feeling the daze when she saw the woman or heard her call to her.

"Who are you?" She asked.

"My name's Madeline and there's something that you have that belongs to me," Madeline replied.

"What's that?"

"You're body."

Caroline felt everything turn cold and felt sharp pain everywhere. Her head ached more than it ever did. She fell to the ground since she had no strength to stand. Lying on her bedroom floor, Caroline was huddled into the fettle position and screamed out in pain.

Elijah heard this from outside and rushed into the house. He placed his hand gently over her head and brushed some golden locks out of her face. With all his willpower he tried to force Madeline out with the blood bond but it seemed as if he couldn't do it.

Madeline fought back and used the bond to give him a wrenching pain causing him to fall back. Once Elijah was out of the picture she ran out of the house and down the street. She could feel herself gaining the control over the body. She just needed a little more time and it would all be hers.

After running for so long she found herself in the middle of the woods surrounding the town. Madeline decided that she'd use this time by herself to focus on forcing Caroline out. She was so close that she could taste it. One thing that she didn't count on happening was Klaus being there at that moment.

"What are you doing here? I told you that I'd come find you later," she barked.

"What's with the tone Madeline?

"Look I just need to be alone right now," she said.

Klaus looked angry. She had never seen him angry with her before. She did not like it one bit. How dare he be angry with her when she was doing all of this so they could be together.

"I'm growing tired of waiting. What's the big deal if she doesn't have all of your memories love? We have a lifetime to make new ones."

"I told you it's not time yet!" Madeline yelled. She was becoming overwhelmed. He couldn't turn her yet. If she were to die then her soul would forcibly leave the body and Caroline would stay put. That couldn't happen. Not only that but she felt something pushing at her. It was as if both Caroline and Elijah were trying to pull her back into the darkness through the bond. It was becoming too much.

Madeline wretched out a scream and held her hands to her head. She felt a pair of arms, no doubt that they belong to Klaus, try to comfort her but she pulled away. Her walls were crashing down and she felt a daze overcome her. Soon everything faded to darkness.

Caroline awoke to find herself in the middle of the woods with Klaus next to her. She let out a scream of terror when she saw his face. He smiled at her and brushed her cheek with his hand. She desperately wanted Elijah to appear any moment to rescue her. But he didn't come.

"I'm not waiting anymore," Klaus said.

He bit his wrist as blood trickled down from the fresh wound. He forced his wrist onto her lips. She choked on the blood as it poured down her throat. Everything happened so fast that there was no time to process what was happening. All she remembered was feeling the sharp stinging sensation on her neck that soon turned into an intoxicating feeling. She breathed hard until she could breathe no more.
