9 - Haunting Vengeance

Part 10

Gemini Runaway

@dragonixfrye

Klaus vamped us upstairs where I went into the bedroom I had changing into the green tea shirt and some sleep shorts that I had on before we went on our date. Walking around the house I finally found him standing in front of a large fireplace. Stepping around the couch I plopped down on the floor. “Alright so I’m gonna need a knife and some candles. Then you sit across from me.”

He vamped through the house coming back with what I needed crossing his legs when he sat down across from me. “What exactly should I be prepared for, Raelyn?”

“Basically it will be like when you showed me your memories with your sister. Except it will take a lot of my strength to do something like this. I’ve only ever heard of witches doing something like this so I will be very rusty at this…give me your hands please.” Holding my hands out flat he placed his larger ones in mine. “Inteo….Merabas hic libatal….Insertia."

Klaus’s eyes shifted to focus onto mine then dropped down to the knife near my feet. The candles around us light up for a brief moment then returned to their normal flame control. "What exactly is the knife for then if this is a mind spell?"

“I have to link my body with yours since you’re immortal and can’t die. You don’t have to worry about it. I am just doing this as a precaution.” Picking up the knife I drew the blade lightly across my palm doing the same to Klaus’s where I quickly began chanting since he would heal at a faster rate then I would. “Phasmatos tribum, melan veras raddiam, onu pavadus ponemus.” Insertia.." Klaus sniffed trying to control the urge when he smelt the siphons blood. The candle flames grew bigger once more before there was a slight wind and Raelyn closed her eyes so he did too entering the witches mind.

“Uncle Joshua, how can we help? We don’t have magic of our own.” Jacob asked, holding my hand in his while he led us outside into the middle of nowhere in the woods of Portland.

I began to feel nervous in the pit of my stomach. He had shown up at our house saying that we needed to come with him immediately and since he was our Uncle we listened. "You said there was an emergency. What kind?”

"The problem is our Coven of witches will die unless you two Merge." He stopped in his tracks drawing a knife from his back pocket.

Jacob looked back at me. "Merge, what does that mean?"

"It's a tradition that our witch Coven must do. Twins in our family are in line to be leaders. That's what you two will be. You must contain your magic together and the stronger of the two will become the leader." He explained handing the blade outward to me.

Reaching my hand forward I heard someone breaking through the treeline seeing our mother and father. "Joshua stop! I told you that I don’t want to help you. I will not let you kill my children!”

“I don’t care, Eliza. Incendia Bulla.” Joshua raised his hand trapping my brother in a ring of fire before he grabbed his head making Jacob drop to his knees screaming. “Ah Sha Lana.”

I screamed trying to move forwards but I smacked an invisible wall. “Jacob!”

“Let my boy go, Joshua!” Our father yelled but he got thrown backwards into the dirt.

My mother ran forward shoving her hands on the fire wall, burning her fingers until the magic in the ring died down letting her inside the circle. She ran forward grabbing her brother by her shoulder with her hands turning red siphoning his magic. “You can go to hell, Joshua. You aren’t my brother anymore.”

“Eliza you still don’t realize do you…” Her brother grabbed her by her throat, choking her making her claw at his wrist. “If the twins don’t merge before I die then the entire coven dies along with me. That means you and your children will die even if they don’t merge!”

Raising my hand I broke the barrier spell chanting the words in a panic. “Solvet…Now let my mother go and we will merge.” Stomping up to my brother grasping his hand in mine.

“Raelyn. Jacob, no!” She cried when he released her trying to catch her breath.

Uncle Joshua walked around our parents placing his hands on top of our intertwined hands. “Let the Merge begin then my niece and nephew.”

Sniffing through tears I watched the image of my brother dead at my feet. Clutching my hands around Klaus’s I gasped drawing my body back wrapping my arms around myself shaking. “After that moment my twin brother was dead because of me….because I wanted to save my mother from her own brother.”

“I’m sorry, Raelyn. I would have killed that man for doing that to anyone in my family.” Klaus told me where I could see his jaw clutching at the thought of seeing someone else hurting the witch in front of him.

Hugging my knees to my chest I turned my hands into fists with my knuckles almost turning white at how hard I was pressing them closed together. “I feel like a monster when I wake up in my bed from plotting a nightmare where I got my revenge on my uncle Joshua. I shouldn’t want to hurt him or the rest of my supposed family but - he took my best friend and twin from me - he tricked us into becoming a killer just like he is.”

“That’s normal in my world, Raelyn. And if you wish it I could go compel some of my hybrids to go and kill him.” He reached over, placing his hand on mine.

“No!” I snapped my head up seeing him raise a brow at my forwardness. “If anyone gets to hurt him someday it will be me and only me ... .god I should like a horrible person don’t I?”

“I’m a thousand year hybrid vampire, Rae.” He sent me a smirk raising to his feet tugging me up to stand alongside him.

“But Klaus-“

He cut me off, tucking some hair behind my ear resting his hand on my cheek where I leaned into his palm. “Rae, stop talking for a second and think. You didn’t know that the Merge meant to kill one of you because he lied. Yes you may have been stronger than your brother and that is sad. But you have to stop having a pity party and enjoy it otherwise your brother may have died for nothing.”

Flinging my arms around his neck I sniffed happily into his shirt. He wrapped his arms around my waist kissing the crown of my hair. Breaking the hug he squeezed my hand in his right. “Thank you, Nik. I’m sorry that I am an emotional mess.”

“I’m sorry" are two words you never have to say to me ever again, Raelyn Lane. Now will you join me for a family reunion?” He smiled and I sent him back the same look when we traveled to a storage place where he got a phone call and it apparently was Stefan. “Stefan. Miss me already?”

Stefan responded when he put the phone on speaker so I could hear him. “I'm just calling to thank you for my freedom.”

Klaus responded by sending me a cheeky smile coming up on the storage locker. “I like to believe I'm a man of my word. More or less.”

Stefan spoke back. “The thing is, it came at too high of a price. You took everything from me, Klaus.”

“Let bygones be bygones. Trust me, resentment gets old.” The hybrid warned him.

“You know what never gets old?” Klaus opens the truck listening to his former friend. The coffins have disappeared. “Revenge.”,

Klaus growled. “No!”

“Stefan what are you trying to do? You shouldn’t take someone else’s family” I snapped at the vampire not liking that he seems to not care. If Jacob was still alive and he did this I might want revenge too.

Klaus snarled into the cell where he just might break the whole thing in his tight grip. “What are you doing?”

Stefan responded. “I'm just enjoying my freedom.”

Klaus threatened the vampire flashing me his golden werewolf eyes. “I will kill you and everyone you've ever met!”

Stefan clicked his tongue hanging up the phone “You do that and you'll never see your family again. I wonder, Klaus. As someone who's been one step ahead for 1,000 years. Were you prepared for this?” Lifting my head up to the original hybrid I didn’t know him well but I knew he would make him pay for stealing his family.

26 - A Coven’s Leader

Part 27

Gemini Runaway

@dragonixfrye @secretdreamlandmentality

Jacob and I were standing in front of our birthday cake at our sixteenth birthday. Holding his hand in mine we blew out the candles on the chocolate and strawberry cake hearing everyone clap. “That is so great, you two.” Our mother took our picture until we saw our uncle coming in our direction.

“Happy birthday my niece and nephew. A few more years and you’ll be all grown up.” He smiled at us but I could see he wanted to talk to our mother. He bent down on a knee holding out his hands to us. "We share a history. A bloodline.. We're family."

Jacob and I placed our hands in each individually but my brother said. “You’re our uncle but mom doesn’t mention you often.”

“That’s because I am a very busy guy. But I’ll let you all in on a little secret. Come close.” He beckoned us forward where we scooted closer hearing him begin to chant something. “Sanguinem desimilus, sanguinem generis fiantus."

I winced trying to pull away from him. “Agh!…uncle you're hurting us!”

“Uncle!” Jaocb cried.

Before he could go any further he winced sharply seeing my mother grab his head siphoning him until he collapsed onto his back groaning. “Urgh Eliza!”

“Are you two okay?” She rushes to us seeing that our arms weren’t bruised or anything.

I shook my head rubbing my hands. “Just sore and tired, mom.”

“Go and lay down. Take your brother with you.” She pushed us toward the house where I glanced over my shoulders. “I don’t want you anywhere near my children ever again.”

Joshua couched getting to his feet. “One of them will become the leader whether you like it or not, sister.”

“Who the hell are you, mate?” Klaus asked staying in front of me as a bodyguard being able to feel my heartbeat almost racing where I might kill over by the level of fear running through me.

Joshua moved forward, extending his hand. “I’m Joshua Parker. It’s nice to meet you Klaus Mikaelson.”

Klaus eyed his hand about to move forwards but I shoved myself in between the pair smacking his hands away knowing what he was going to do. “No! You don’t get to magic his ass. Now what the hell are you doing here. And how did you even find me?”

“We share blood. I still have the strongest magic of our coven or at least I did until I found your spot on the map. Somehow your strength has grown at a quicker rate than should be physically possible.” He explained it to me.

Klaus raised his hand tugging me backwards by my forearm. “That’s because of me, Joshua is it. You know I have heard quite a lot about you. And none of the stories are good. So I suggest you get out of here before I rip your throat out!” He showed him his fangs and the werewolf eyes.

“If you kill me then she’ll die too.” Joshua said, meeting my gaze where I crossed my arms over my chest stepping away from him.

Klaus smirked at him. “She’s linked to me, she’s basically immortal now.”

“Then why are there marks on her arms huh. I am not an idiot. Every time she used magic and became weak I felt it.” My uncle stepped closer trying to get my attention. “Now can we please talk some privately because I didn’t have to come out here.”

Snapping back at him I bared my teeth, stomping up to him. “If you don’t want to be here then go home. I don’t want anything to do with you ever since the day I met you, you have done nothing but try and get me and my brother to Merge. Now that you forced us to do so I murdered my own brother-“

“I have done the same thing you did.” Joshua cut me off.

Throwing my hands in the air I shouted at him clutching my hands into fists breaking some of the street lights around us without doing any magic at all. “You don’t know what it feels like to watch your brother die and have no clue that it was going to happen. You may have killed yours and think it is okay but it’s not. It’s the thing that keeps me awake at night and I will never find peace knowing that he suffered!”

“I had to do it before I got sick and died. I don’t have the patience to wait a couple more years for the twins.” He raised his voice at me.

“Oh yeah because you’re afraid that Kai is trying to get out!”

For the first time in my life I saw honor take over my uncle's face. Klaus came to stand beside me grasping my hand in his sending me a confused look not understanding. “What are you talking about, Raelyn. He’s trapped in a prison world. He can’t get out.”

“Well I’ve seen him. When I took on the Original witch's magic I passed out and saw him. He talked to me somehow like I was in his prison for only a split second. But he’s trying to escape, mark my word, Uncle. He threatened to kill me one night when I was heading to bed.” I marched up to him grabbing his hands making him wince when I showed him my memories before he pushed me away.

Klaus caught me in his arms when I stumbled backwards gripping his jacket. “He will never get out. You are just lying so that I don’t do the ritual to make you the leader. So I don’t transfer my power over to you and put the whole coven in the hands of your baby. On the off chance that you carry twins inside your belly!”

“There’s no baby, Uncle Joshua.” I attempted to lie knowing that he didn’t have vampire hearing.

He scoffed, raising his hand chanting a mind spell. “Do you take me for a fool, Raelyn. Pontem praesidio. Anchora immortalibus. Per mental mi heavy for anmina. Pontem praesidio. Anchora immortalibus!” I grabbed the sides of my head seeing my past memories coming to the surface.

Shrugging my shoulders I throw my hands away from my side. “From what I gather I am able to have a child because he was born a werewolf. So before he turned he was a mortal supernatural being.”

“You two have slept together recently.” The witch shouted, making me halt in my tracks.

Klaus took a few steps back dragging me behind him and shielding me with his chest. “What are you saying?”

“Niklaus… The girl is carrying your child.” Elijah reveals to him where my hand’s dropped down to my stomach in shock.

Screaming I wanted the pain to stop. “Get out of my head, Uncle Joshua!”

“Pontem praesidio. Anchora immortalibus - urgh!” He grunted getting pinned against the wall by Nik who was choking him by the throat.

Raising to my feet I began gasping for breath when his eyes started rolling in the back of his head. “Klaus, let him go…..if you kill him we all die!”

“He’s hurting you, Rae. He won’t have much to say if he doesn’t have his tongue.” My boyfriend threatened shoving his fangs again.n

Raising my hand casting a sleeping spell on him snapping his neck quickly. Uncle Joshua collapsed to the ground gasping for breath staring up at me when he saw my hand was extended down to him. “See you’re just like me. Doing what is best for the Coven.”

“I didn’t save your life to benefit the Coven. I did it to keep Josette, Lucas and Olivia alive.” Yanking him up to his feet I glared into his gray eyes that focused on me. “Now if you’re so concerned with the Coven then send your power to me. I’ll become the leader!”

He raised a brow. “You have repeatedly said you don’t want it.”

“You’re right I don’t give a crap about the others in our Coven. I was an outcast by everyone else except for my mother and Josette. So they can all rot for all I care. But I will do what I have to do to save the ones that I actually do love.” I stomped up to him almost pressed up against his chest where we could feel the others' breath.

Joshua glanced down to my boyfriend Klaus who was still dead from the neck snap I had given him. He bent down placing his hand on his chest looking back up at me. “So he’s the father huh. I am surprised that you got him. Everyone knows to fear his name.” He got to his feet laying his palms flat for me. “You are doing what you were born to do, Raelyn Lane.”

“Save it, Uncle and start chanting!” I shouted up at him smacking my hands into his larger one.

He closed his eyes, wincing a little when I began to siphon his magic while he chanted the Merge spell and another spell I wasn’t familiar with.“Sanguinem desimilus, Sanguinem generis flantes. Sanguinem desimilus, Sanguinem generis flantes…Tillate ulaz tillate ulaz tillate ulaz. Tillate ulaz tillate ulaz tillate ulaz.”

“Raelyn…no!” Klaus regained his consciousness the second that the wind blew around us and he could see our intertwined hands.

Yet I ignored him chanting at the same time as my uncle. “Sanguinem desimilus, Sanguinem generis flantes. Sanguinem desimilus, Sanguinem generis flantes…Tillate ulaz tillate ulaz tillate ulaz. Tillate ulaz tillate ulaz tillate ulaz.” Wincing sharply as a huge amount of power gets transferred into my bloodstream struggling to remain linked to the spell when I enter his mind space.

Before my eyes I relived the memory the night he put his son away. "Josette, what did you do? Why can't I feel your magic? And why aren't they saying anything? They should be saying something. They should be saying something, right? We're merging. This should all be a bigger deal."

Suddenly Uncle Joshua appears, holding the Ascendant and stepping forward from the circle of the coven around them. "Sanguinem filio, sanguinem effurgarex perpetuum. Sanguinem filio, sanguinem effurgarex perpetuum."

Kai began screaming in pain on the ground. "Aah! Aah!"

Uncle Joshua kept performing the spell. "Phesmatos filio, phesmatos effurgarex perpetuum."

He dropped our hands and I felt lightheaded immediately afterwards. My uncle collapsed onto the ground and I fell backwards seeing Klaus hovering above me trying to keep me awake but I didn’t have enough strength. “Raelyn. Raelyn, keep your eyes opened. Stay with me, love!”

The next time I blinked my eyes open I was brought face to face with Tyler Lockwood sitting on the end of the bed in one of the mansion. I croaked out still feeling drained from the spell that we had done not understanding how we got back to the Falls so fast. “Tyler, what are you doing here?”

“Getting revenge on Klaus. He is busy getting someone to check on you. But he won’t find you.” He explains in a cold manner.

“What do you mean -“ I asked getting cut off when he covered my mouth with his hand and his other arm yanked me against his chest vamping us all the way into the middle of the woods.

He drops my weak body on the ground. “When the witch gets here we will use Raelyn to drag Klaus out here. Then we’ll finish him.”

Lifting my head up as much as I could I shivered seeing that there were twelve of his sired hybrids surrounding me. I raised my hand attempting to do the spell that I use to knock the Original family down but nothing happened. “Tyler, listen to me if he finds out you have me he will kill you.”

“Yeah except you see when he gets here, he won’t make it out alive.” He bent down on a knee biting into my neck throwing me into the strong arms of two of the hybrids that held me there bleeding slowly. “Keep her until he gets here. Then you know what to do.”

It was a few hours when night fell before one of the hybrids came back from town standing. “Where the hell is the witch? Adrian should be here any minute.”

The one named Adrian gasped before he collapsed to the ground and I saw that Nik had taken out his heart angrily watching the others. “Kim.”

“Klaus!” I gasped, choking on blood feeling more lighthearted than when I did the spell with my uncle.

He dropped the heart holding a longsword in his other hand stalking up to the remaining hybrids, specifically never taking his eyes off the two holding me on the ground. “You’ve got exactly less than a second to release her if you wish to make it out of here alive!”

One of the hybrids launches himself up into the air but he swings the sword killing him. He vamped forward, slicing a few others with the weapon. One of the hybrids holding me bit into my neck leaving the other to charge at him dying like the others. “One more step and I’ll kill her.”

“No you won’t!” Klaus growled vamping the hybrid against the tree behind me where my body got thrown harshly into another tree stabbing me multiple times where I felt my blood coming out.

Klaus went after the last hybrid girl who ran to the cellar getting trapped turning to see him covered in blood. “Where is Tyler Lockwood? You'd do well to answer me, love. Where is he?!”

She shuttered, trapped in between him and the cell bars. “I don't know.”

“Wrong answer.” He stabbed her with the sword, vamping back to me dropping the sword biting into his wrist in a panic to save me like he did last time something like this happened. “Raelyn - drink love.”

Wrapping my fingers weakly around his hand I took only two sips before my eyes fell closed and I collapsed into his arms. “Nik….” And for the last time did he hear her heartbeat before there was nothing.
