Chapter Nineteen

"Well, isn't this a cozy suprise!"

Klaus said with a smirk.

"Not too long ago, I'd have been just Ecstatic at this happy reunion. But seeing as how you're now a vampire, I have no use for you anyway. Come Stefan. Did you get the medicine for my Love?'

He had to make sure to say Alisha that way. He was trying to provoke Elena. He couldn't have Alisha knowing she was alive, now can he? He would lose her.

"What is wrong with my sister you asshole!""Nothing a few ibuprofen can't fix. It seems whatever Damon compelled her to forget, is giving her a headache.""Damon?" Elena looked over to him. With questioning eyes. "Don't look at me I didn't compel her.""Oh, yes you did. But then I caught you right after apparently, and compelled you to forget seeing her. So, how can you remember."

Klaus laughed, then walked over to Damon, and looked into his eyes.

"Remember."

And he did.

Flash back

"Look into my eyes. You are going to forget about everything that happened with Elena since I pulled you from her side at the sacrafice. You will only remember that she died, and we haven't had the funeral yet. You won't remember that she is a vampire, or anything else. Only that she died, and that we couldn't do anything to stop it. Do you understand me? Elena is dead.""I understand. Elena is dead."

End flash back

"Oh god. Elena, she thinks you're dead! She wanted me to compel her to forget, in case she slipped and told Klaus." He looked over to Klaus.

"Good to know. Now, Stefan?"

"Elena... I..."Stefan looked torn. But he knew what he had to do. "Keep her happy, brother." He said to Damon. "Forget about me Elena. I made a deal, and I have to abide by it. I have my honor."He looked into her eyes, his filled with tears. "Wait! Stefan! No! You can't go. Klaus? Why do you need him?""I don't. But he made a deal. Like he said. So, come Stefan. We have things to attend to. Alisha agreed to bleed for my hybrids. I need to get back so she can feel better. She is, after all, still exhausted from last night."

He gave Elena a smirk, so she knew exactly what he was talking about.

"Oh you sick bastard! You stop touching my sister, you're only using her!."

Stefan looked at the ground.

"You're wrong Elena. He loves her. He's just being a dick right now to provoke you. Don't let him win. Just... just let me go."

Stefan walked over to his car, with Damon quick on his heels.

"We will get you out of this brother. I promise."

"Don't."

Was all Stefan said, before getting in his car and driving away.

Klaus stood there, looking at them.

"I suggest you heed my warning. Stay away, or I'll send Stefan back to keep an eye on you and you won't like the Stefan you see. I will ruin him and he will never be the same."

Klaus laughed as he got in his car and drove off.

"Damon! We can't just let him go. We have to do something!""We will. I will figure something out."

Klaus walked into his house to find Stefan in his room. Sitting on his bed.

"What can I do, Klaus? What can I do... I want to go home.""No Stefan. You made a deal."

"I thought she was dead!"

"Stefan, don't push me. You'll regret it.""I want to go home!"

Stefan pushed Klaus to the wall. He was in his face, when Klaus turned him around, and slammed him against the wall.

"TURN IT OFF!"

Klaus had compelled him to turn off his emotions. No one disobeyed him. Ever.

"Good. Now.... obey."
