The Fox Doppelganger TVD

After knowing that Katherine has the cure everyone searched and called but to no avail. Seeing that Damon will die, Stefan went to beg Klaus for help. Klaus gave him several blood bags and told him to drink. He wants to wake the ripper from with in. Stefan remembers Katherine telling him that Klaus likes him like that.

Klaus told Stefan to take the cure to Damon and then come back because they have a trip to take. When Stefan came to give Damon the cure he found Elena kissing Damon with tears in her eyes. He stood there with haggard breath. He could feel his heart shattering at the sight.

He kept telling himself that it was because his brother was dying and she was being there for him but the image is burnt on his mind now. No matter how he denies it and shake his head in denial he can never get it out.

The pain bore into his heart and he couldn't breathe. He lost his footing and ended up on his knees. Elena heard the sound and saw the image of Stefan crying on the floor as if in immense pain. She got up from the bed as if on fire.

Stefan lost the fight and closed his eyes. He hit the floor with his fist as if he has lost his mind. Finally he opened his eyes and Elena saw it. There is nothing behind those eyes. Stefan had shut his humanity.

He tossed the bag with Klaus's blood and looked at them without any anger, without any pain. He seems empty as he turned and whistled.

Elena is horrified at what just happened. Stefan saw her kiss Damon and shut his humanity switch without hesitation. Seeing the bag on her hand she gave the blood to Damon and Damon healed. This made Elena helpless. She cried herself to sleep that night.

Stefan might have been immature at times but he had been with Elena for a long time now. He would not fault her if she was just pitying him but that expression, he saw something he recognize in her expression. Longing and .... love.

He has done such a sacrifice for his brother only for him to take away the love of his life.

Stefan is aware that Damon is in love with her but now he also knows she loves him back. Katherine was right, again. Klaus is amazed at Stefan's better attitude after going home. He assumes it must be acceptance.

.....

News came in, the hybrid broke his curse and is going to be forcing packs to turn into vampires. All packs migrated and scattered to hide. The technology is able to allow communication effectively, even if they are apart they can still communicate.

Those wolves who roam the world alone for one reason or another went to join the camp but most of them remained oblivious to the news.

The pack leaders tried to get in contact with Katherine but were not able to. Katherine has decided to focus her energy on to the existing members. The leaders had shown her their backs at that time. It is time to live with their decisions.

Klaus is furious, he has been up and down mountain after mountain looking for werewolves but is not able to find even a whiff. He finally finds one werewolf but he is not a pack member and the packs he knows ran away a while a go because of a rumor that a vampire werewolf hybrid was going to go around forcing everyone to turn into vampires.

Mothers ran away for their sons and daughters, they want their children to get married have children and grow old.

Klaus and Stefan are stunned at the news. Stefan has an idea of who might be causing trouble but he is having too much fun watching Klaus fail to tell him this.

"Who is it? When I find them, I will scatter pieces of their body throughout the map. I'll keep the eyes and pluck them like olives from my fingers." Klaus destroyed furniture all over the bar.

Stefan's phone rings and it's Katherine. "I heard a rumor." She said in a playful voice from the side of the bar Klaus can hear it and sped to next to Stefan. He stood close so he can hear it.

"That our would be hybrid is doomed to remain the only one of his kind, how sad... can you imagine, all alone in the cruel world where mothers curse and fathers beat."

"I heard another rumor, the ripper came to play. Has the mutt woken Rebekah yet? Or he is too busy throwing a tantrum and destroying furniture?"

"You are really unlucky to have met him once. He goes around making enemies and compelling his friends to forget him. You have to work hard Stefan when you grow up, you can't be a man who can't have friends and can't have family because he daggers them and keep them as play things."

"Katherine."

"I got goose bumps, Ripper Stefan sounds sexy. Ow well. I still prefer how the stick in a suit says my name."

"Well, I can't help that." Stefan knew that Katherine is dishing her dose of dissing. He couldn't wait.

"You haven't been sharing things with that filthy thing have you? Stefan you are very good looking but there a limit to your charm. If you use the same bathroom as the flea infested you end up dirty."

Klaus took the phone and smashed it on the wall. Stefan gave him a what the hell? Look but shrugged and continued drinking.

"You are laughing. Don't laugh at me!" Klaus's anger surfaced and he wanted to give Stefan a werewolf bite to teach him a lesson. Just when he is about to do it. The owner of the bar came in and threw them apart.

Another phone rang. Stefan wanted to answer it but Klaus sped to it and smashed it to pieces. Stefan and the witch got speechless. It was the bar pay phone.

.....

Katherine has a simple schedule, she trains in the morning by herself wearing the weights. She will drink the elixir, the quantity has increased to barely a liter. The first tail is almost completely visible. Her strength is also boosted by the beast cultivation technique from the fox clan.

Now all she needs it to do the refinement cooking. It is very painful, so painful that the fox clan had abandoned this method and reserved it only for the untalented batch of the young generation. Even then these fledglings will need to be of certain age. otherwise they will lose their minds during the process. Katherine is still building up her courage.

Katherine is almost certain of her victory against Nicklaus but is still unsure if she has to face multiple Mikael son siblings. She is now able to fight the trainers while wearing the weights. He doesn't even need to take out her claws now. The progress is good.

Rose had called a few vampires she knew of who were like her and Trevor, without a home and purpose. The number surprised Katherine. These people are specialized in many interesting areas.

Katherine used another location for the vampires and gave them the elixir mixed in with her blood. She wasn't stingy with the amount of blood. Vampires are traitorous and can be compelled by Originals so she was going to give them some shield runes but they still need to pass a few tests. Unlike the werewolves, the vampires hq is in a city located in one of the high rise buildings.

There is a bar inside and residents in the upper floors. The entire setting was designed by the vampires themselves. They claim it will bring a lot of money but, Katherine thinks they just want to party forever.

She doesn't mind as long as there is a schedule on when to work and when to train. The most happy thing about the joining of vampires under her is the amount of resources they have.

She did not neglect to tell the wolves who sponsored their upgrade in residence. That's right, Katherine won the bid against politicians on a resort that was out of business because of the increased deaths in the resort.

It had gotten to a point that it became a known fact that if you want to disappear from the world go to that resort.

The new space is immense so Katherine began fortifying it with runes immediately. With the increase in her soul power she finishes the job in two days and one night.

The resort will be used to make money still and the vampires are willing to train and provide assistance when necessary given their experiences but the two teams will still need to complete the mission themselves and make money for the clan.

The inside of the resort can not be captured on a camera. The people with access to all areas of the resort are all those with her blood inside their system. Which means they will not betray her. Although she can't call them overly reliant on her approval like a slave should, they will not betray her.

The location has a barrier that protects from harmful projectiles. They will go in but then reappear on whomever threw them. If it is a bomb it will blow up the bomber.

The barrier also has a function of making people who have bad intentions towards the resort, it's members or the clan leader very sick. The sickness varies. But they all have a similar glaring symptom. Their face will become very colorful. Depending on the level of hostility they harbor.

Katherine could not help but marvel at this magical rune. She is aware of array formations who can do for more severe symptoms but to find this sort of practical joke in a magical book is quite the marvel.

Weapons do not work inside unless it is a cold weapon. Katherine taught some talented members to draw runes on the other members so that no one will be able to get inside their heads. Then she will infuse them with her soul power and allow the magic in the air to allow it to function. Katherine realizing she will need more people to do this in the future since she is still going to war.

Cultivators would have made use of runes if they didn't require such a colossal amount of soul power and magic energy. Katherine has soul force of an almost full tail. Also, cultivators will be able to break through such barriers using the various spells available to them. But this world has Less powerful beings which makes the runes valuable. 

The next night she introduced the various training facilities that have been reinforced against destructive power. The weights have also been magically enhanced.

There is an arena that looked to be for tournaments and then there are two others where informal fights and challenges will occur. The wolves couldn't believe their eyes. This is simply the dream home of wolves. The vast open wilderness to run when they shift, the enhanced equipment for exercising and they get to use the place to make money.

This resort is in a middle of a deserted mountain and the scene is dry which is why not many people will choose this location for a vacation but it is a perfect location to conduct personal business operations that the government is not aware of.

This reason is why she had such a fierce competition in the bidding. But winner take all.

The wolves trained can now each take on a single trainer which is equal to fighting three to four normal wolves.

After all the arrangements have been taken care of. She told the wolves they can invite their former pack mates to visit. But only one week is free.

She is doing this to announce her force. Her barrier will hold. It is not just magic it is soul power.

When it comes to the ability to transform at will, she will still need some help. But she is not overly worried because she found a way to halt the transformation and the pain will be eventually distributed to the body in small doses for two days.

This is so that they can still defend themselves even during the full moon. Another magic revolution she was able to cook up is rather fascinating. She took Jeremy's Gilbert ring when he was passed out after the ceremony and examined it.

She found out that the ring is rather specific but also flawed. It chips away at the soul the more a person dies. She of course still copied it specific spell and then tweaked it so when the person dies their entire body will vanish from sight.

Their bodies will then be transported to a specific location where it will then be mended and returned to life. The location is where a restoration and resurrection rune formation will be. They don't need to be wearing a ring she made it so as long as the person has her blood in their system they will benefit from this specific magical benefit.

"You all know who I am?" She looked at the many eyes staring at her as she stands on a podium in the hall specific for special occasions. It is large enough to house all 402 werewolves and 532 vampires. This clan is not small, although it is not considered large.

She heard mummers of acknowledging her as the clan leader.

"Yes, I am a clan leader. I am your clan leader. And yes. I recruited you so you can help me fight a war I never thought I would ever win. Let me tell you a short story that lead to this war.

A man came into my home, he was angry at me for not allowing him to use me in some ritual so he can become a wolf. So he massacred my entire family.

Now I ask you, to join hands with me because that ritual he was going to do 5 centuries ago has finally been fulfilled and now he hunts for wolves to turn into what he is. A creature of both werewolf and vampire descent. He wants to turn you, turn your families and your children into the thing you do not want to be.

Now, don't be alarmed. I won't need most of you to fight for me physically. By not being in his pack you are already helping me.

I want wolves to remain wolves, I want you to marry and have children. For your children to go to school and have careers and be members of society.

I want your blood lines to not disappear from the history books. If you do that, if your lives are enriched and your family names live on. I win, and he loses.

Whose with me?

"Awuuu" "Awuuuu"

"I said, WHOSE WITH ME!?"

"AWUUU" "AWUUU"

"That's what I'm talking about. We will not let our lives be ended in the hands of a tyrant."

The rest of the speech is about the various magical reinforcements done on the facility. Katherine will not be around this place too much so they needed training and a hierarchy system that depends on competency in the specific job.

She left the specifics to the vampires and moved on to the next big thing. After this is done she will officially go back and start war.

....

In a room lit up with what seems to be runes and ancient looking math diagrams. If she does this, she will regress in power, she may even loose the tail she is about to form but the idea had struck her dumbfounded when she had seen the information inside the rune language books.

After fighting Elijah, she is aware of her power, and as she is now she will be able to wipe the floor with Nicklaus but she doesn't want that. She wants a prolonged suffering and a meaningful struggle from him. She wants Nicklaus to feel like he has a chance.

So she made a decision to manifest one aspect of her full potential in each of the Original 9 recruits.

"I have called you here because I want to ask something. Are you all willing to fight side by side with me? I don't want you to feel overwhelmed and have to answer right away, you can take your time. But if you do this with me, you will become more than just my soldiers, you will be my family. You will become my pack and we will have to fight along each other and most importantly we will have to fight for each other."

"Kat, what's wrong?" May is the first one to notice the serious tone on Katherine. Which is rare. Katherine sighed.

"You all remember how I found you? Discarded and given up on by the people who once loved you, you had hurt them and had taken all the care that you could take from them and they had none left to give. I too am like that. I have no one. The people I care about do not care about me because of who I was."

"I too, had taken all that they could give and they simply had enough. So, are you all willing to become that which I seek? A family. Are you willing to walk through fire and floods for me, for yourself and most importantly for each other? If you agree raise your right hand and place it on your heart and say "I"

As if none of them needed to think. They raised their voice and agreed. Katherine smiled. A genuine smile. She raised her hand and placed it on her heart and said the word. The moment that happened the array bloomed like a buddha lotus flower.

The light came from the core which is the center where Katherine is standing. The magic fermented and just when they thought it was just a pretty light, nine different colors shots out from Katherine and embedded themselves on each of their hearts.

Simultaneously the nine small closed boxes in front of them opened and from each box a bleeding heart emerged and levitated in front of each of them. Several bright lines on the ground wriggled and moved to each heart.

The blood left inside the boxes also left the box and shot to the hearts. Minutes trickled and soon the several former bleeding hearts became golden the more the light from the floor entered each heart. Soon the red color is completely replaced and then the hearts started to shrink in size and then shot to each their chests.

Each of them felt a foreign power that is forcing them to shift. They did. Each and everyone of them it soon standing on all four looking at Katherine who have also shifted into her fox beast. Sadly the tail did not make it. But this is temporary.

They stood like that, nine wolves and one fox waited until there was no magic left in the formation. The size of the wolves is now half and some inches of the size of the fox. They are three times what they were before. These wolves are her new family, her new pack.

They will protect each other and have each other's back. All rejected by those they care about, now come together not only to survive but to strive. They will brave this knew world together.

They all bolted for the door as if they share the same thought. A pack hunts together.

They ran through the woods. Hunting, playing and even fighting. Katherine did not loose out to the wolves. It was a blessed night.

The wolves are never in full control of their actions when transformed in the full moon. Today was special and it will mark the first of many.

When they came back and fell asleep the grown ups brought them camping beds and warm blankets. Even though they didn't know what is going on they believe that Katherine will tell them when the time is right.

Katherine woke up refreshed. She has never shifted and ran in her beast after obtaining it. Now she is almost back to herself after the fiasco in Mystic falls.

Now she just needs to get used to her new level of strength along with the rest of her team. After which she will go and antagonize Klaus. She wonders what has is going on with Klaus. She knew Elijah would wuss out of killing Klaus, it was easy to see in his eyes. He lacked the resolve.

Katherine has made a sacrifice that night, one greater than even she realized. Her tails will now take even longer to grow an grant her their power. This is because her soul power and the body power has been almost halved. Soul power can not be rushed.

The benefits also far outweigh what she had anticipated. The 10 of them have now turned into a real pack, they can feel when the other is in pain or if one of them is dying. They also have what is called a pack link. If one concentrate on a member they can send each other messages using their minds. The Alpha can send commands through this link to all of them at once.

They had breakfast still mulling over the fact they can turn at will now. The level of gratitude they have for their leader is immense she can feel their bond growing stronger. This bond is very useful, if they are fighting as a pack, their strength is doubled. The alpha's power triples.

Katherine who had sacrificed her power to build this pack and strengthen it, is amazed at the results. They haven't even checked their power as the 9 tails.

The abilities of each tail are:

May can produce fire from any part of her body. If she continues to train and grow stronger, the color of the flame will change along with the intensity of the heat.

Bobby Can produce cold energies from any part of her body. She can inject cold poison into the bloodstream using her icy blue claws.

June has the power over the shadows, he can appear anywhere if a shadow is present in that location. He will be able to turn shadows into anything including weapons.

Jake got extremely fast speed and the ability to control other speeding objects around him including people. His twin sister Paige got the space blade and the ability to lock space around a small area so nothing can go out or inside.

Annabelle got the healing ability, she can bring someone back from the brink of death. Her ability works to the extreme to her as well, she can heal herself even if her head is cut off or her heart pulled out. She is regarded as Immortal among the group.

The pack link between them stretch for a long distance because of Elijah's hearts. All their powers have began at a considerably higher level than if they hadn't gotten the hearts.

Tony has the ability to create an alter ego. His exact copy and can control it with ease as if in two places at once. He can also let the copy decide for itself and behave however it wants. But he will be connected to it and able to see all it can see. It will not betray him.

He can use it to gain skills, the two of them will both gain in whatever the clone learns.

Mike got Katherine's favorite tail. The one with the ability of a Necromancer. Raise and control the dead. Able to gain all memories and skills of the dead you control. Cannot control vampires fully unless they had died and went to the other side where the Necromancer can bring them to the plane of the living.

"So, how is it? Happy with your abilities? I warn you, it has taken 60% of my actual power to bestow that power to you especially the three most fierce of the tails."

"What do I get?" Nathanial Blake asked scratching his heard.

"Sorry Nate, you have the power to control air. Use it to fly, turn it to wind blades and cutting things in the distance. You can also control the air inside the person's lungs and turn it into sharp blades or pull it out so they will suffocate.

"You can..." Not allowed to finish, Bobby's voice sounded.

"Umm Kat, can I change my power for something warmer?" She shivers.

"It is because your power has just been activated, go to the forest and activate it. Try not to hurt each other. Due to the hearts ingredient on the ceremony, your power is a little more than others get in the beginning. Okay maybe a little more than by a little more.

They all ran to the woods. Jake ran through a tree leaving half a tree bark on his way. Seeing her brother destroying the beautiful trees, Paige tried to lock the area around him so he will stop.

She ended up locking in his right arm instead and because he had been on a high speed. The arm got severed and left hanging in the air while Jake ran away happily.

When the pain from his severed arm shot through him. He doubled over and became surprised to see an open wound where his arm used to be. Mike laughed at this. His laughter made everyone look at him with incredulity.

He looked at them un concerned. Annabelle ran towards Jake she was about to touch him but Katherine came at this time.

"Don't heal him like that. In your mind you are thinking to heal his wound, but he still needs to attach his arm. If you close it he will be the fastest one arm man."

"Of course you can regrow limbs but it will take too much power. And you were not thinking about re growing it a moment ago. All of you must remember, your power only follows what you want it to do. In your mind, you command it at will." Katherine taught them patiently.

"Paige release your brother's arm." Annabelle tries to get the arm. Jake seeing his arm on display like that is speechless.

"Paige what were you doing aiming your power at me? What if that was my head?" Jake sweating profusely glared at his twin sister.

"Like a moron you were destroying trees everywhere you went, should I applaud you for your reckless use of your power?" Paige did not back down.

"A tree? I paid and arm..." he couldn't finish and began to lose strength. He ended up on the ground trying to catch his breath.

Katherine narrowed her eyes. "You have a power of an Original vampire's blood, not to mention his heart. My tail is very strong as well, stop acting. Even if all your limbs are cut off you will still be able to use your power with ease." Katherine rolls her eyes.

Jake got up sheepishly. "I just wanted to scare her."

"Congratulations, she is so scared she doesn't know how to use her power properly. Paige darling, if you collapse the space locking the arm it will destroy the arm as well. This is lesson one for you. Learn to lock and unlock space without destroying its contents."

"Umm leader, does she need to use my arm for this? I'd rather not have it disintegrated into powder right before my eyes."

"Go on Paige. Try your best to save your brother's arm." Katherine ignored Jake and went to check on the others.

Bobby froze an entire tree. It looks beautiful. One ice crystal surrounded by green trees. The leaves look white and the sun light envelops the scene in a glow that seems ethereal.

"Good, Bobby you have done a good job containing the ice from spreading to unrelated areas. Now try to absorb all the cold energies that have frozen the tree. If you succeed. You would have made it through the first hurdle. You don't want your power to kill that which you wish to preserve do you?" Katherine smiled seeing Bobby agree.

The most bizarre scene is seeing May. She opens her mouth and releases a flame shocking Katherine to a halt. How the hell is she able to control it so soon? And this move is dangerous. Most people would use their hands and the inventive ones would release flames from their feet to fly.

"How did you come up with this move?" Katherine folded her arms in amusement and asked.

"I am a dragon .... ROAR!" Even more and bigger flames came out this time.

Ha ha Ha ha...

Everyone stopped to look at their favorite crazy duo. Katherine ran away being chased by a torrent of flames. Katherine suddenly stopped and turned around folding her arms but the flame went around her, it's shape changing into a large snake dragon.

It wrapped Katherine up and its large heard turned to face May, it opened it's mouth swallowing her whole. Deathly silence. Everyone looked on with wide eyes.

But something even more bizarre happened. May's roar sounded from inside the dragon. The fire dragon's flame is moving and disappearing where May is. Everyone waited with bated breath as the dragon shrinks until May's naked form is revealed. Her red hair flying around her and seem to be flames.

The flame is going inside her body. Katherine smiled. "As you can see, your power can not hurt you. In fact, you can take it back to your body to recover your strength."

"So when you attacked her with the fire..." Annabelle asked

"I was just looking to see if she will get it back. She surprised me with the fire breath. It takes years for people to even consider this possibility because they are made of flesh and fire burns." Katherine took out a rope from seemingly out of nowhere and threw it at May who was busy checking out her hair.

"Is it me, or my hair is longer and heavier?" May asked. The people laughed at her. It is obvious her hair grew larger and longer.

"That is because you have grown your power. And now you can control hair to ignite. I suppose that is something you could do." Katherine shook her head.

"My power increased?"

"Yes, when you learn to not only release the power but also absorb it back. You have moved up a notch. Of course some powers are impossible to absorb. But for those of you you can do it, try your best."

"Umm leader, I did it." Katherine saw Paige who is carrying her brother's intact arm.

"I did what you said just now, instead of trying to get rid of the barrier I attempted to take it back. I used my hand to absorb it into my body." Paige said with a flush of excitement.

"Well done Paige. Your ability to absorb knowledge is amazing. That goes to all of you. We don't have a lot of time until I will confront my enemies. I need all of you to be at your best. Do you understand?" Katherine is serious and they know it when she is serious and when she is playing around with them. They can adjust to it easily.

The ground shook, everyone turned and saw a man with pale white skin, bright blue yes and raven black hair riding a large crocodile. The grey scales on the monster shining under the sun light. The size of a small car.

"Hehe, leader, what do you think of my pet?"

Katherine narrowed her eyes. "Did you learn to change the shape of your dead by yourself?"

"Yeah, I was wondering how to make an entrance. I had wished the damn thing was bigger and more menacing. What do you know it just didn't on its own as if reading my mind. Then I added the extra color and the rock hard scales." Mike said scratching his hair.

Katherine gave him a proud smile. "You did well. See what else you can learn."

"I can't add diamonds scales. Just harder bone ones." Mike's disappointment is obvious.

Hahaha.. Everyone laughed at him, even Katherine couldn't spare him. He is too funny.

"The dead will only change in accordance to what they already had upon death. You can only change the size or toughness of the already existing materials." Katherine finished explaining to see Mikel's eyes shining with so many ideas. 

"Kat, can I ask what was that you did with May's flame?"

"That is the ability of my mind. I can move things with my mind. When I am powerful enough I can even move a car and smash it at a building. I don't have to gesture with my hands too, I can just find what I want to move with my mind. Even with my eyes closed."

"Is that also the power of a tail?" Tony asked standing next to himself.

"No, there are only 9 tails and you guys have that power. Until I grow stronger and gain another set of tails I can only wait."

"Thank you leader." These words came from all of them. Katherine acknowledged their gratitude. Annabelle heals Jake not even leaving a scar from where the arm got separated.

"I will have to go and do something underground today so, don't worry about me. I hope you will all learn to use your powers during this time. When I come back we will set off. You may say goodbye to your families in the meantime. You have two days. I have files on all person of interest in the study. Read on them to know your enemies."

Katherine has had a construction team make a underground safe place. It is like a tomb. Many stone chambers with the resurrection spell derived from the Gilbert rings. Powerful teleportation runes, the corpse will be teleported to this location then be put together by the magic gathering in this place.

Katherine spent a lot of time carefully carving and inscribing the runes all over the wall. By the end of it she is already drained of most power. She erected a large stone pot in the middle of the chamber that belongs to her.

A stone melting flame burns under the pot. Hardness runes carved on the pot will ensure it doesn't fall apart no matter what happens. Yesterday a group of wolves she had tasked with retrieving an order from the airport arrived back with all her medical herbs. Now she is using one of those crude body cultivation techniques to increase her power.

She had given up a considerable amount of her power when she manifested the 9 tails but she will get it back. An hour later she stood naked in front of a boiling hot pot full of medicine. She used her mind to lift herself up and landed inside the pot.

She let out a shrill as the hot medicine destroys her nerve system and mended it back together again. The chamber has sound nullifying runes so her cry will not disturb the residents of the resort.

She had fun when Jeremy and Caroline were suffering to receive the enhancement but what she is going through is on another level. Her spiritual beast is sleeping after sharing power of the 9 tails with the group. She needs some time to recover her spiritual energy.

Without her beats spirit, she may not be able to mind control powerful beings such as the Originals or a slightly stronger witch.

She is going through with this enhancement because she needs to at least be more powerful than them when it comes to physical strength and speed.

As she boils and cooks inside the pot, she is remaining saner only by imagining her enemies shattered bodies as she pummel them to death with her hands. Pain pain and more pain. At some point her eyes lost the luster and she just stared into the same spot.

The fire died down but she did not move. Her fox beast still greedily sucking in the tonics inside the herbs. Katherine fell asleep engulfed by impurities and heat. She couldn't hold on. Tired and sore from the arduous tasks she completed.

The second day she spent sleeping after cleaning herself. These tombs are spelled so only those who are coming from inside may leave no one coming in from out side may enter. This privilege is left only for her. As the clan leader.

The day after Katherine exit the underground tomb. She feels great the power inside her body is amazing. The effect will be gradual as time goes on.

"Are you all ready?" She looked at her pack and family. They all nodded with slight excitement.

"He is headed east, decimated 2 wondering packs on his way. Finally giving up soon, maybe." Cloe reported Klaus's whereabout

"Oh? Thank you Cloe. You can go back now."

"Sure thing clan leader."

The call drop. "I know his next stop. We are going to get ourselves a house in Mystic falls and settle down. Some of you should go to school and blend in. When the storm hit, we can regroup. Mike, I need you to charm someone for me."

Mike scratches his head, "I'm not good with girls."

"You don't have to, you are very handsome. Just make small talk." Katherine said.

"I'm gay." Mike said sheepishly.

"I see, Tony. Your up. But your target is different from Mike."

"Hehe, clan leader are you saying I'm handsome?" Tony beamed.

"You are a police officer now. Straight back and chest out." Katherine laughed. Tony became dejected.

"May, you are a new teacher. Don't worry it's the one in the gym."

"No! I hate, hate, hate, children."

"They are teenagers." Annabelle chipped in.

"We are going to take over the grill. It is a small hang out spot where most of the socializing takes place. Change the furniture and the overall small town charm into a mixture of small town and something upbeat." She handed the task to Annabelle who will be responsible for running the Grill.

She had sent the vampires to buy the grill, the house large enough to house all of them. The house is fully furnished now and in return she sent large litters of werewolf bite cure.

"Nate, try to befriend Jeremy or Matt in school. Don't hide what you are if they ask or if it leads to it just come out and tell them. Make it seem genuine as if you don't have anything to hide. But remember, do not get used by them. That group of people is good at exploiting outsiders."

"May try to befriend Alaric Saltzman. Don't try to hide your identity too much. Have fun. Don't forget to call me through the link if something bad happens.

"Bobby, Jake and Paige are going to attend school with Nate. Your schedule and ID already In your rooms. School starts Monday." I need to go and mingle with the high society ladies.

The fancy small bus got in the estate which is not too far from the small shopping center. Everyone got out and marveled at the mansion but it still pales in comparison to the resort. They went in trying to see which room belongs to them.

There is a file and ID on each of their beds. One of the master bedrooms belongs to Katherine, there are four. One for Tony, one for Annabelle and the last one is for May.

Katherine spells the rooms separately to isolate the sound from inside. Lastly the home belongs to all 10 of them. They can each invite a vampire if they want but that vampire will have to be invited the next time they come in.

The first night everyone rested well. New staff members will come the next day to do the cooking and cleaning and other activities in the house. Everyone in this house is said to be busy the next days.

Katherine checked the woods belonging under their property and erected a barrier to prevent intruders and outsiders from coming in. The kids should be able to run in the woods safely should they wish to.

Katherine went and greeted the neighbors saying she is Elena's lost twin but she is home schooled and stays at home to run her online business.

When she got to the mayor's house she found Carol available. "Hi, I'm Katherine. You've heard of me?" With a smile she gave the mayor a large piece of pie.

"Yes." Carol made a frown on her face looking at the woman who is a vampire but looks like Elena.

"I heard there's a twin of Elena Gilbert's birth lineage living with the new family in the mount estate. So it was you?"

"Of course. I don't want to have to hide while here so it is better to come out and say it."

"Why are you here?"

"Should I not come in and have tea?"

"No."

She went in on her own and went to take a seat. "My family is that of wolves. This town is riddled with supernatural, we felt we will fit right in."

"Stop lying. What werewolf family will live with a vampire?"

"Carol, finding out if I'm lying is a simple matter. The reason I am here is that Tyler will be turned into a vampire if he stays in town. Do you want that? For your only son to be a living dead? Feeding on humans? Not able to give you grandchildren?" Katherine asked with a sincere expression of worry.

"Since when are you concerned about my son? Aren't you the reason Mason is dead?"

"It is because I know Mason that I am giving you heads up. The hybrid is coming back. Last time Tyler survived the Sacrifice but how much luck can one kid have?"

"What are you saying?"

"You might not remember but Tyler returned last time because the hybrid wanted to use him in the sacrifice. Damon saved him that time along with Caroline. This time when that man gets here he will turn your son into a hybrid like him. He will be able to turn whenever he wants and won't have to turn if he doesn't want to."

"That sounds wonderful."

"But that Nicklaus is a very paranoid fella, Tyler commit one mistake and you will die in order to punish him. Look how he took Jenna, sweet young Jenna and turned her into a vampire so he can kill her during the sacrifice just so he can punish Damon?"

Mayor looked at Katherine with wide eyes. "What else has happened in the town that I am not aware of?"

Katherine looked at her with faint surprise. "You don't know?"

"I know that Stefan and Damon are vampires but what can I do? Tyler is not exactly human."

She served tea full of vervain but Katherine enjoyed it generously serving herself seconds. Carol's face turned ugly seeing this.

"You say this man is coming for my son, then as a family of wolves, can you help him and put him under your protection against this vampire?"

"Carol I am saying this with all the care I can muster but, are you out of your mind?"

"That vampire is 1000 years old. Originally werewolf turned first vampire and now he wants an army. You want my family to get in his way because you asked nicely?" Katherine asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I am a mayor of this town, you will find it worthwhile to befriend me."

"And if I refuse?"

"I may find myself resenting the agreement on the Mount estate. And that deal on the Grill, who knows what's going on inside my head these days? I'd hate to have your entire family evicted." The threat made Katherine stand up.

"Well, I had come in good faith to warn you mayor because of our shared interests but I see now that I have made a mistake in coming here." She looked at her again and sighed.

"You have been through a lot haven't you mayor Lockwood? Your husband dead under his own coup, and the only male Lockwood who could have helped you with the son who is just exploding with a hot temper died under suspicious circumstances."

"And now, your only child is under grave danger and you are just as helpless to do something as you were when your husband died. Perhaps it's time for you to rest as well? Along side your husband and his brother and just let all the pain and anguish go and die peacefully in your sleep, what do you say?"

Katherine asked kindly while using her power on her. Carol agreed. It has just been too much. With no one to lean on.

"You are right Katherine, I am tired and want to rest." Katherine smiled at her and then said.

"Alright, enough jokes. Wake up!"

Carol stood up in shock at the amount of depression she had just felt because of this person. She looked at Katherine in Horror.

"How is that possible? I'm on vervain."

"Yes, I know. I am something special, almost like that mutt who is coming for your son. But I don't mean you any harm, just don't push that son of yours to my family and we will get along just fine. You can't tell anyone about what I can do. Even if you want to, you are un able to do it in any shape or form."

"Is that a compulsion?"

"Yes. I suppose but I call it mind arts. I can use my mind to reach places and interfere with them."

"I am really worried about my son." Carol, seeing there is nothing she can do about Katherine, she started opening bottles of wine.

Katherine accepted her courtesy and drank with her. After a long time Carol fell a sleep and Katherine left.

When she got home she found Annabelle taking off her shoes.

"Hey I grew up surrounded by woods and mud, how do I even begin to fix that place to be small town and ... what was the other thing?" Anny said with a tired sigh.

"You have 8 times the power of a normal wolf, don't pretend to be tired. Besides I will provide you with stronger alcohol. The kind that will be served only to the supernatural and the strong. I'll put it together just make a separate bar with an LA theme. Mature and dangerous."

Anny's eyes twinkled. "Alright. I'll improve the menu and furniture on the small town side and create something mature on the side." She stood up and left.

While the next day everyone has their task, Katherine stayed and brewed stronger bourbon and delicious wine. The lingering qi in the drinks accelerate the aging process of both wines, brandy and whiskey.

It is simple actually she just took the same alcohol in the warehouse and placed inside a formation that sucked qi in the air into the bottles. It turns the taste to explode in your mouth. One try of the stuff and everyone will come back for seconds.

The price is stip.

Annabelle ordered luxurious furniture. Look looking chairs and a small table able to hold the glasses and alcohol.

Only adults and supernatural creatures are allowed in there. A week passed quickly the bar will be opening during the weekend.

....

Elena and Damon are having a harder time tracking the Ripper and Klaus because of the lack of victims. Klaus is unable to track many packs.

Bonnie and Jeremy face problems because of Anna so Bonnie became closer with Jake.

"You said your family just moved here?" Bonnie sat down during lunch with Jake and Paige.

"Yes, our family leader said this place is a beacon for people like us. She said you won't be bored. I don't see why though. This is no LA."

"Did you live in LA?" Bonnie got interested. People like them? Are they supernatural?

"No, I wanted to move there because it sounded sinful and just better. We used to wonder around until we decided to settle down now." Paige said. Showing her disappointment for this place.

"Don't worry about it too much. Try to find a spot that works for you. I take mystic studies." Bonnie said eye fucking Jake who hasn't said much.

"Hockey, or just football I guess." Jake said with little interest.

"Anyways there is a party in the Grill, they said it is opening a new section using the previously unused space. Wanna come?" Bonnie asked. It seems her fight with Jeremy has made her bolder.

"Oh? The same grill or there's another one?"

"The same." Bonnie answered honestly seeing the twins looking at each other speechlessly.

"The woman who is running the place is our sister we are surprised because she never said anything about it to us." Paige explained herself.

"So your family owns the place now?" Bonnie asked in surprised. 

"Yes but we are obviously not on the loop." Paige said.

"Probably because we are underage." Jake said.

"Its a mask party, so you can put on a mask and no one will know." Bonnie added.

"Mask? So cool, and they are trying to exclude us. Do you want to go shopping this afternoon and get ready for the party tomorrow?"

"Already. I'll call my friend and see if she will come." Bonnie said and took out her phone. She first called Caroline who said she got the invitation and will join them for shopping. Elena said she is helping Damon look for Stefan.

The twins looked at each other but said nothing.

The same afternoon Caroline came with Bobby in the same car as they got out in the mall. When Bobby saw the twins she rolled her eyes. The three of them looked at each other and said the same line.

"What are you doing here?"

"You guys know each other?" Caroline looked at them in amusement.

"I know them. They hog all the hot water in the morning and make me late for school, it happened twice already." Bobby said with an annoyed tone.

Bonnie laughed. "You guys live together? What a coincidence." Suspicion in her eyes obvious.

"I even avoided them all week in school, I picked separate sports, I even went so far as to pretend I'm a genius to change my math class just to avoid them and be admitted to advance math where I met Caroline." Bobby grumbled.

"Yeah she did tell me about an annoying set of twins who made her late. You guys really live together?" Caroline asked also feeling weird.

Jake just ignored them and put on his earphones. Listening to music.

"Do you see it? Utter disregard for everyone except for his twin. So annoying." Bobby seems like Caroline's sister.

"Why are you complaining? You have found a twin too." Paige said points at Caroline with a raised eyebrow.

"She does look like my other half doesn't she? We totally clicked. Don't even think about snatching my friend." Bobby ran to Caroline and took her away from Paige.

"Care, listen to me. Don't go over there she snatched my favorite sun glasses last week when we were moving. Also, she keeps making eyes at this guy I like. Total snatcher. Stay far away from her." Bobby told Caroline in hash tone.

Bonnie is still dazed. She doesn't want another case of Luke to happen again. She decided not to be paranoid and just come out and ask.

"You guys didn't target me for something did you? The three of you just happened to be coming from the same family and befriend Caroline and me at the same time?" Bonnie asked making a fake smile.

"We targeted you. Because your not human, Jake and I don't want to have to lie our way out on every conversation we have with a friend." Paige said.

"Yeah, Caroline is also the only non human person in the squad. And I like her." Bobby admits.

Caroline and Bonnie are stupified. What is this? The thing they were hoping was not true is true but seems like there's no plot? That still needs to be seen.

"You guys are not humans?" Caroline things she is understanding something from their speech earlier.

"Bobby." Paige said but Bobby shook her head. "Just tell them there's no need for a show."

"We are werewolves." Paige said with a hesitant expression.

"Ow, that's alright I guess." Bonnie exhaled in relief

"Yeah, just no sleep over on full moons." Caroline joked. It seems the misunderstand has been cleared out.

"Good, let's go shop now. Can't wait." Bobby skipped towards the mall making Paige chuckle.

"Sorry for the interrogation it's just, we have been targeted before."

"That is okay. You did good by just asking out right. I didn't know you are a straight shooter like that." Paige said.

Jake walked to them and took of his earphones. "What is taking so long? I'm helping Kat with fermentation tonight."

"Whose Kat?" Caroline asked while Bonnie asked "What are you fermenting?"

"Kat is our clan leader, she's fermenting alcohol for the bar."

"Isn't that done by just putting away to age?" Paige asked.

"Yeah but she had a way to infuse qi in the stuff so vampires can get drunk easily and also improve the taste." Jake put on his earphones back on.

"You are selling vampire proof alcohol?" Caroline looked at them incredulously.

"It's very expensive. But it will probably be free tomorrow at the party."

"Humans can drink it too but in extremely small doses." Paige explained.

"I am suddenly looking forward to this party." Caroline's mood improved. Her healing ability is too strong after the enhancement she can not get drunk no matter how hard she tries.

"You should come train with us. We have magically improved facilities for training. Theres even a gravity chamber. It will help with the excess energy." Paige offered.

"Won't your family be worried if you hang around a vampire? Also, aren't we supposed to not like each other?" Caroline asked.

"I heard that, but our clan leader is a vampire. Besides, I can take you." Paige said with a challenge that make Caroline laugh.

"Alright. I'll come in the morning." Paige beamed.

"Magically enhancement done by a witch?" Bonnie asked interested in meeting a fellow witch.

"No. I'm sure she is a vampire." Paige said with a frown she is not sure if those symbols means Kat has magic but she doubts it.

"I never asked, she draws symbols and they work. I don't think any of us actually paid much attention to it." Paige shrugs.

"Symbols? Do you think I can meet her?" Bonnie asked with interest.

"Hey, I can get you through the door, our clan leader has a peculiar sense of humor. She relates to each of us differently. For instance when we were not close she would say we reek of dog smell." Paige laughs the two looked at each other. What leader will say that to her own clans men?

"She made this medical concoction and made each of us bath in it for an entire day. Everyone, imagine hundreds of people, old young and crippled?" Paige said with a laugh.

"After that none of us smell like werewolves anymore. That is probably why Caroline didn't know what Bobby is and Bobby being Bobby didn't remember it." Paige said. Bobby had already changed into two outfits when the finally find her.

"So, theres hundreds of people in your clan? Did you all move here?" Caroline looked horrified.

"No, those are all old and young they live in a place safer from society, atleast that what the leader said. She only took us here so we can have experience. She said this place is fun."

"She sounds different. What could be fun about this place?" Bonnie gave a shallow laugh.

"I agree. But she means well." Paige said.

"Anyways. Did she stop calling you guys names after your smell was taken care off?"

"No." Both Paige and Bobby said at the same time.

"There are all sort of fun names but she loves us. I have seen how she treats people she dislikes. Yiks." Bobby said with a shudder.

"Sounds dangerous. Does she mistreat you?" Caroline got worried.

"I don't think so. Although, she does go all out during training. She doesn't train us all the time but when she does, it's pain. That is why I say I can take you." Paige challenges Caroline again.

"Is there someone she doesn't like in this town?" Caroline asked

"She met with the mayor the other day and came back complaining but they have been drinking together since. Confused me." Bobby said.

"Why?"

"Get this, the mayor tried to force her into taking in her son the local werewolf and when she refused, the mayor straight up blackmailed her with withdrawal of the house and the Grill agreement." Bobby gossiped.

"She did?" Bonnie is surprised.

"Are you surprised? Her son is basically a lone wolf right now. It makes sense to want your child safe. It's just, we are a close group getting in now will be impossible." Paige said.

"Why?" Caroline would like Tyler to get into a pack so he can run with a pack.

"There are many things she considers. Besides Tyler can come to shift in the woods with us in the full moon. The place is safe and he can run wild and free instead of being chained or some other options."

Caroline considered this the best outcome. Bonnie also agrees. The girls shopped till they were content. Jake took a few sets without trying them on and called it a night.

Bonnie went to talk to Elena about the new family of werewolves in the town.

"So, there's ten of them?" Elena asked.

"Yeah. The kids did not try to hide anything at all except that part about why an outsider can not be allowed in. They pretty much answered all our questions. They were happy we are not humans and they don't have to hide around us."

Damon came down stairs making Bonnie frown. "What? I just came in through the window."

"Ever heard of the door?" Bonnie asked but saw Elena avoiding Damon. As he tries to held with the dishes.

"What happened to you two?" Bonnie asked them.

"We kissed, now it's weird." Bonnie made an 'ow' face.

"Anyways about this vampire clan leader. Damon, do you want to go check it out? From vampire to vampire? Bring pie, I here she brought Carol a big pie. Bring something."

"I'll bring alcohol." Damon said also curious about a vampire leading a group of werewolves.

"I wouldn't recommend it. I hear she is fermenting alcohol that can make vampires shit faced to sell at the side bar that will officially open tomorrow night." Bonnie said.

"Caroline is going there to train with their magically enhanced gym equipment. I hear they even have a gravity chamber."

"Maybe Jeremy can train there..." as soon as Elena said his name Bonnie's mood soured.

"Probably not, they don't like hanging around humans. They befriend me and Caroline because we are not humans."

"But only because they don't want to hide. So maybe it will be fine. But first we need to meet this leader. She's a vampire after all." Elena said.

"Awch!" Damon said. Elena rolls her eyes.

"You know what I mean. Anything new on Stefan?" Elena finally looks at Damon but the first thing she sees is his lips. He also sees the same thing and for the two of them, time stopped.

Bonnie quietly left. She called Caroline to gossip. "Ewu..." Caroline complained.

"She needs serious sanitation to wash it all off, you know what? I should bring her as we speak."

"No, we can't tell her what to do." Bonnie advised.

"This is no time for your wise voice Bonnie, you were also terrorized by him once right? How can you just...I have to go." She dropped the call Bonnie remembered what Damon had done to Caroline and cursed herself.

.....

"Hey Bobby, are you free?"

"Caroline, you called at the right time. Can I mootch off your beautiful mind. This maths is going to explode my mind. I swear I saw a few maths diagrams jumping out of the question book. Care, help me. Can I come over?"

Caroline laughs at her flustered question. "Yeah. I could use a friend right now. Hey can you steal some of the alcohol that vampires can drink?"

"Alright I'm on my way." Bobby heard her new friend and got up from the bed. Her home work is already done she just wanted to complement Caroline.

"Katherine, Caroline just called and asked me to bring the strong stuff. May I? I think she is upset."

"Bring sleep wear. Don't forget your meditation when she sleeps." Katherine had made tens of barrels of alcohol that will be delivered daily at the bar.

After tonight, she will be focusing on her skills and improving her strength. Occasionally she will visit the bar but she will spend more time working out or meditating.

The night went by quietly. Caroline got closer with Bobby who listens and pat her back when she is puking on the toilet from drinking too much. In the morning Bobby met the sheriff in the kitchen.

"I don't think she should go to school, perhaps you shouldn't go to work either. She needs her mom." Bobby is busy making breakfast. For Caroline while glaring at Liz.

Liz looked at her amused. "Good morning to you too stranger in my kitchen."

"I'm Bobby." Looking at the clueless Sheriff Bobby said her name, seeing she is still clueless, Bobby shook her head.

"Ow my God, I have been in your daughter's life for over a week, I could have been a serial killer!" Bobby's blue eyes sparkled in annoyance. She snorted coldly.

"I hope your job brings you happiness." She then ignored her going back to finishing making breakfast and then taking it to Caroline. The sheriff is left speechless.

"Who is the Bobby person?" She also just put it behind her thoughts and went to work.

Caroline woke up feeling like shit. She went to the bathroom swaying from the headache, she brushed her teeth and cleaned herself up. When she came back she found breakfast on the stand with a note.

Eat and come to school. You can't let it ruin your schedule.

Caroline smiles and eats her food happily. She agrees. Elena and Damon can not get in the way of her day. It may be Saturday but she has cheer leading practice. She won't go to work out with the pack.

Alaric has been treating the homeroom teacher coldly because she beat up a jock who was bullying another child. He later found out this boy is an orphan who is doing very good in school so the rich kids are angry at him for daring to be better than them.

"Nock nock."

"Can I help you Mr Saltzman?" The woman asked looking at him with clear eyes. She is very tall, her large green eyes are mesmerizing and he had seen her in shorts. Two words. Long legs. But his instincts are screaming danger when he is with her.

"Mr Saltzman." May blinked.

"Sorry, you just..... anyways I came to apologize."

"What for?" She seems to have forgotten what he said to her the day before.

"The kid named Mace, who was being bullied in school and you saved him. You beat up..."

"That? No, I wasn't saving him. I was saving the one I beat up. One of my pack mates was about to intervene. Had it been him saving that friend of his, the jock would have been in hospital. He doesn't know how to control his strength." She took the bottle offered by Alaric.

"What do you mean pack mate?" Alaric asked in surprise

"I was told you know of the supernatural. I'm a wolf Saltzman." She said showing him her golden red eyes. Her eyes are red inside and have a yellow ring outside the iris.

Alaric stepped back. Genuine fear in his eyes. "Are the eyes supposed to be like that?" He asked. Although they are beautiful, they are just too mysterious.

"What?"

"They are red and yellow." He said.

"Is that true?" She took a look at the window but Alaric stopped her.

"You don't know?"

"I don't have the habit of looking at myself when I'm in wolf form."

" It is normal to have eyes like that?"

"My pack is special. So I suppose it is normal if we don't see anything out of place among each other."

"How special are we talking?" Alaric said in mock terror

"Um, some can fly." She said with a straight face. Alaric laughed. She could see he thinks she is joking but she didn't bother saying more. Clan leader sent her such an unimpressive target. She wants to switch ah. But atleast she was to just befriend him not date him. He is fine but she lives amongst werewolves who are big and tall. Not to mention she herself is tall.

"Are you going to the party at the side bar?" She asks him.

"I haven't thought about it. I heard invitations are hard to come by."

"You can be my plus one. Don't get me wrong I don't have many friends here and ..."

"I'll get my tux ready. Pick me up I want to drink tonight." Alaric left her office. She took off to get something to wear.

...

Katherine is tired, she ended up having to go enlarge the space of the side bar using her 'magical language' as Annabelle called it. Katherine had complained that the normal humans will notice this but Annabelle had already set her eyes on her staring her down in accusation calling her lazy.

"So, Mike, do you have a date? Or have you been hanging out with death all day long?" Katherine teased the Necromancer.

"I wish, that place is humble but it gets business." Mike who has been working all the time came to take a small nap and then go back to the opening ceremony.

"Are you really not going to give a speech after working so hard on the alcohol?" Mike asked Katherine who just shrugs.

"I have nothing to say. We have visitors open for them and then go take a nap, I'll wake you up when it is time."

"Do you know these people?" Mike asked opening the door before Damon knocked. Mikel looked at them and gestured for them to enter.

"We've met." Katherine said as Bonnie and Elena came in. They got shocked seeing Katherine on the couch reading magazines that they almost dropped the pie.

Damon got stuck at the door because Mike just left him there. Katherine sitting in the couch, lazily looked up. Her clear eyes met Damon 's eyes she did not show anything on her face. Looking at those empty eyes Damon is at a loss.

He had been the reason Jenna got killed. He is also the reason his brother is missing. Had they listened to her they would have been spared a lot of pain.

"Come in Damon." Katherine's voice sounded and Damon tested if it worked and to his surprise, he could enter.

"So Mikel the new manager of side bar works for you?" Bonnie went straight to the questions. She didn't get an answer though. Katherine just looked at them.

"May I help the three of you with something?" Elena is still a bit dizzy. Seeing Katherine brought back alot of regret, and resentments.

"Kat I'm starving. Do we have qi food?" May asked as she got in the door putting down keys.

"In the case, refilled it during the day. " Katherine answers without looking at May, still looking at the three people in front of her.

"Thanks Kat, you are the best. I still need to go to the mall and buy something for tonight."

"Oh? I thought you wont go since you don't have a date?" Katherine asked letting the group in front of her to settle down

"Well, you were right. It is a family business and I should be supportive of Annabelle and Mikel."

"You found a date." Katherine busted her

"I found a date. hehe."

"Try not to give it up on the first date." Katherine said with a chuckle.

"It's not like that he just seemed sad. Maybe your drinks will give him a pick me up. Plus, he's human." She said in between munching.

She sighed in contentment. "You know Kat, these qi balls are awesome."

"What did I say?"

"Not to call them balls. Because I am eating them, I can't be saying I'm eating balls." Her small voice comes making Katherine laugh. May took her keys again and left.

"That was fascinating. Why is our homeroom teacher eating at your house? How can you invite Damon inside the house when you're a vampire yourself? Also, what are qi balls?" Bonnie the ever curious.

"I asked why you are here?" Katherine's friendly expression is gone again.

"Look, Katherine, I know we didn't end on good terms last time and I want to apologize..." Damon is not finished when Katherine raised her hand stopping him.

"There's no need for all that Damon. Just tell me why you came so we can conclude whatever brought you here in my house." She gestured for him to get on with it.

"We came to welcome a new neighbor, we brought pie." Elena made an ugly expression.

"Odd, I had picked this house because it is far away from all of you. In any case, thank you. Ow, please accept this tocan of my appreciation." She took out golden alcohol. The liquid inside is golden in colorit is among the best in the collection.

"Katherine about Jenna."

"Please have a safe trip. I hope you enjoy the alcohol. Bye bye." She pushed them out with a fake polite smile.

"Almost forgot, Bonnie here, take it and feed it to your mother it is supposed to reconnect her magic channels and help her practice again. Emily muzzled it out of me...that little wizzle." She is grumbling in the end. She closed the door with a thud the moment they came out.

They walked back in silence until they heard Damon Cough. The two girls turn and see him making a weird face.

"This stuff is good." Damon says closing it carefully.

"Do you guys remember what she did to the pack with that woman who bit Rose?" Bonnie is the first to remember and then they all remembered it. Katherine had done a lot of stuff to try and show them that she is sorry.

She enhanced Jeremy and Caroline. It seems however that she has moved on from them. They discarded her at a critical moment. Suspected her, insulted her and then excluded her.

Bonnie doesn't know what the two she is walking with are thinking, she is looking at a vial of miracle medication supposed to help her mother regain her magic.

She clenched her hand almost shattering the small glass container. Separating from the two people she went straight to her mom's place and gave her the medicine. Bonnie didn't even sit down before leaving.

"Can you go with me?" Mike made eyes to Katherine who just shook her head.

"The idea is for all of you to make friends. If I go with you, you won't make new friends."

"Why? I think you are over worked and just don't want to admit it. The runes this afternoon took a lot out of you no? It's okay to admit these things. You can rest and don't worry about a thing. We have it covered." Mikel smiled at her leading her to her bedroom and tucking her in. He turned off her bedroom lights and closed her door.
