Emotions
02:17, 15 April 2022*Stefan's P.O.V
"There you are" Gloria says as I walk in.
"I thought you were resting." I say
"Well, now we both have a secret" she replies
"What did you see?" I ask
"It's what I heard that's interesting, you know the girls with the necklace they were talking about you and your sweetheart of a sister"
"You didn't tell Klaus, why?" I ask pouring a drink
"because I wouldn't help that hybrid half-breed for anything, the necklace is a talisman from the original witch herself. I want it." She snaps
"Well I'm sorry I can't help you" I say walking away
"don't be difficult, you know I'd hate to tell Klaus, what a lair his sidekick and his innocent girlfriend are" she threatens
I tried to speed over to snap her neck. But she starts to give me an aneurysm.
"Guess I got to get it out of you the hard way, huh?" She taunts
She takes out a knife with a sharp blade.
"What is this? Why can't I move?" I ask sweating
"Relax, it's just a little pyrolysis spell, nothing major." she says slicing into my wrist I groan in pain.
"Just gotta get the information out of your pretty little head, you know witches nowadays are into that new age stuff, I'm a little more old school Vudu." She takes out something and continues "now, to stop that pesky healing"
"I won't tell you anything" I say harshly
"Feel that that's your essence, your spirit, it helps me make a connection, herbs help too, diviner, sage, witch hazel, but my personal favorite vervain" As she injects me I yell out in pain "Stefan it's not gonna help you too much. Just let go, honey, there we go. There's the girl with the necklace. You love her, you'd do anything for her and you have. A lot of darkness, a lot of guilt, all this to keep her away from Klaus, why would he be interested in one girl? Shes the doppleganger. She's supposed to be dead and that's why Klaus can't make hybrids isn't it? She laughs
*Addison's P.O.V
I felt very off and knew something was wrong.
"I'll be back." I say to Klaus and Beckah and head to Glorias
I see Katherine stabbing Gloria in the neck who was torturing Stefan.
"Well, it looks like you need my help after all." Katerina says
"I don't think so." I say and she turns around
"I've been thinking about your diabolical plan" Katerina sighs and I go over to Gloria
"Oh, do tell" Stefan says
"Well you must know that Klaus is too paranoid to ever fully trust you, but the sister loves you like it was yesterday, there's your mark, but you can't just pretend to care because Klaus will know better so you do the opposite, you bond with him make her feel left out, that will only make her want you more." She states
"Oh so you mean I'm taking a page out of the Katherine Pierce playbook" Stefan jokes
"The only question is why Stefan. I mean I get it you want to keep Klaus away from Mystic falls but, What else do expect to get from it?" She asks
"You know what's funny? You keep talking to him like he actually trusts you enough to tell you anything" I say
"Oh, come on, Stefan we're beyond that. I saved you from the high Vudu priestess" she says as I am ready to choke her
"Ok. I knew them back in the 20's and my sister was reunited. They were running from someone. Someone who scared them" Stefan says
"The hunter. I heard stories about him centries ago" She says
"Don't you want to know why an original vampire who can't be killed is afraid of a vampire hunter?"
"You're planning on making a move against Klaus? I want in." She says seriously
"Good. It's good to want things Katherine"
"Stefan..." Kathrine argues
"Kathrine. I'm in this alone. If you're looking for a diabolical partner in crime, I suggest you look elsewhere" Stefan replies coldly picking up the body
"Katerina, you have a point but, you should start before I do something to you I'll regret," I say, she shimmies away "As for you, brother, I won't let you do that I need way more answers than that" I walk away.
I wait around quite bored and tell Rebeckah to meet me back at the abandoned warehouse. Stefan comes back and Rebeckah and I Come out
"You're back, finally, Nik went to check on the witch, dreary isn't it? Family cargo" Beckah says with a slight frown
"Why don't you un-dagger them?" Stefan asks
"Because he would hunt me down and kill me, he's a vindictive little bastard, my brother"
"Can't disagree with that" I say
"But you still care about him, why?" Stefan questions
"Well I hated him for a long time, it was exhausting." She says I feel a ping of pitty rising.
"You know when I met you two, you were both on the run." Stef says, pushing his luck
"Also exhausting" Klaus's sister replies
"Who were you running from?"
"What do you mean?"
"I saw you last night, there was a man looking for you, you both seemed afraid. I just wouldn't think Klaus would be afraid of anybody"
"No one in this world is truly fearless, Stefan, not even Niklaus" she whispers
"Who was that man?" he asks
"I can't, please, if Nik knew we were talking about this he would-" she counters
"No, no I'm sorry" Stefan interrupts "forget I asked, okay"
"Nik told me about the girl you used to love, the one that died, he also told me that you're only with him because he saved your brother" beckah states
"It's true" I said
"I think that's what he secretly admires about you, you'd sacrifice anything for family, don't tell him I told you that" she says softly
"You're secret is safe with me" Stefan semi-whispers
She pulls him on and kisses my brother. I turn away. They stare at each other.
"gross" I mutter
"Do you think you'll ever love someone as much as you loved that girl?" She asks
"One day, maybe" he says she caresses his cheek
"I can always tell when your lying Stefan"
"What? I'm not" he says
"Don't bother your kiss already gave you away"
Klaus storms in. "Glorias gone, she's cleared out, we need to find a new witch immediately"
"I agree," I say and glare at my brother "I don't think she had the intention to help us anyway, we need to find someone who will" Part of me agreed with Klaus. He's from a broken family, I understood all too well. He was lonely, only one of his kind, for centuries. But he didn't exactly have willing participants.
"What's going on?" Klaus asks noticing Rebecca who is very skeptical
"Something's wrong, he was asking about Mikeal, he's not with us Nick I can sense it" I know what's coming and turn it off
"She wrong, Klaus" Klaus snaps his neck. If my emotions were on I'd probably cry but they are long gone.
