Klaus POV:

When I walk down the stairs I find Freya and Lorelei arguing.

"What's going on?" I ask

They stop and turn to me.

"We lost contact with Hayley and Elijah but I'm handling it and if your girlfriend would back off-" Freya starts

"Don't give me that Freya! I could've handled this myself but you guys wanted to send them on a suicide mission." Lorelei fires back

The two of them continue bickering and the conversation gets harder to track.

"Back up. You lost them?" I demand

Freya turns to me.

"Yes and I'm trying to figure that out! I can't get a location on them."

"Well we know they were heading to the company's headquarters we should start there. I'll have Rebekah come too."

"What about me?" Lorelei asks

"You're going to stay here and watch over Hope."

"Seriously they took Hayley and Elijah and you want me to babysit?"

I let out a growl of annoyance.

We don't have time for this.

I grab Lorelei by the arm and look her in the eyes.

"You're going to stay here and watch Hope. You will not leave the compound until I tell you you can unless you are in danger. Understood?" I say compelling her

She says she understands and I let her go and call Rebekah.

Rebekah's POV:

I'm sitting enjoying the cold bath when Marcel walks in with my phone which is buzzing. I thank him and take the phone.

"What is it Nik?" I ask

"Lorelei got attacked by hunters last night out in the bayou. Hayley and Elijah killed the hunters but they work for an extermination company. Hayley and Elijah took off to deal with it but we haven't heard from them in hours."

"They took them didn't they?"

"I can only assume."

"I need five minutes."

I hang up the phone and turn to Marcel. He grabs me a towel and we speedily get dressed and head out the door.

We meet Nik and Freya in a field just outside of the building's property.

"I'm going to go do an astral projection so we can see the inside of the building." Freya says

Freya walks off.

Nik is pacing back and forth.

"Nik try and calm yourself."

"They have our brother and the mother of my child!" He snaps angrily

"I understand but we don't know what happened. If we-"

"It doesn't matter what happened."

"If we go in carelessly they might kill them."

Klaus takes a long moment to consider this. He looks like he's about to say something when Freya returns.

"We don't want to be seen so we should go through the side doors on the left and back of the building and one of us should take the roof." She says

We rush into the building Marcel on the left, Klaus on the roof and I take the right. There's nobody stopping us.

It's abandoned.

Or it's a trap.

Klaus's POV:

I walk down the stairs into the building, turn a corner and run straight into a male security guard. He looks stunned for a moment then reaches for his walkie-talkie.

"Hello there mate. I'd like a word with your boss." I say

"Unfortunately he's not in today." The man says

His heartbeat increases.

He's lying.

"That's a shame. I can hear your heart beating away. Now if your honest I might let you live." I say as my face changes, showing my hybrid form

The man doesn't speak, just points to a room.

I burst into the room to find a man on the phone.

"Can I help you with something?" He demands annoyed

"Yes. You can."

I grab him yanking him over the desk and compel him to stop hunting wolves in New Orleans. Then I toss him against the wall, knocking him out cold.

I find Elijah with his neck snapped in the back of the building. I pick him up and head for the car that Freya brought.

Rebekah's POV:

I find a staircase to the basement. Everything is covered in a layer of dust. I scan around. There's plastic sheeting lying the floor. There's beakers, test tubes and bullets on a table.

I pick one up from one basket. It's engraved with the letters FEC.

A wooden bullet.

Capable of killing any standard vampire if you shot them in the heart.

I place that one back in the basket. The other bullet looks like a capsule.

I wonder what they plan on filling it with when a sound yo my right catches my attention.

I turn and spot Hayley in the corner of the room. She's strapped into a table with a mask around her face. The mask is pumping a liquid out of her.

Werewolf venom.

They aren't just going after wolves.

They are going after both species.

Lorelei's POV:

I'm grabbing Hope's paint when two witches appear out of nowhere. The paint scatters to the ground. Hope runs in.

"Are you okay?" She asks

Then she spots them.

"Hope honey go into your room." I say not taking my eyes off the intruders

She takes off.

I hear her set up a boundary spell and once I know she's safe, I get down on all fours and transform into a black wolf.

Then I lunge.

Rebekah's POV:

I walk into the compound and spot pools of blood. It's everywhere. I look around frantically but don't see any sign of anyone.

There's two corpses ripped apart and scattered around the foyer.

Klaus carries his brother to the couch while Marcel walks in carrying Hayley.

They'll both recover in a while.

Where are Lorelei and Hope?

Klaus notices the mess too, eyes wide.

"I compelled her not to leave unless she was in danger." Klaus says

"You compelled her?" I repeat, shocked

"We don't have time to discuss it. Help me search for them."

I hear a snarl and tense up.

Werewolf.

I whip around to see a wolf, black as the night sky.

Lorelei.

Her fur is coated in blood and every time she walks there's a trail of bloody paw prints where she had stepped.

She snarls at us.

Klaus speeds in front of me.

"Are you okay?"

She exhales.

"Is Hope okay?"

Lorelei moves towards the right and Hope walks in from where she was hidden, panicked yet relieved when she spots her dad.

Klaus turns her away from the mess and speeds her away.

Lorelei lays down, exhales again and closes her eyes.

Klaus's POV:

I rush Hope into her room before she can see the gruesome scene in the living room. I set her down on the bed.

"Are you alright love?" I ask

"Yeah. Lorelei protected me when the witches showed up." Hope says

"Good."

I want to ask her more about what happened but decide to let her be and give her some space. I leave, closing the door behind me.

I walk over towards Lorelei who lets out a growl. I stop moving. She looks behind her and realizing it's me, she relaxes.

"What did you see?" I ask my sister

"There were bullets on the table made out of wood and one that could hold wolf venom. They were draining it out of Hayley when I arrived. I didn't run into anyone." Rebekah says

" I found a security guard and the boss of the place. I compelled him to stop hunting for wolves in New Orleans."

" But if they know about vampires he could be on vervain." My little sister points out

Marcel and Rebekah decide they should stay at least for the night in case there are more problems. Lorelei heads for the bedroom and I sit down and wait for Hayley and Elijah to come to.

A few minutes later I hear the shower in our bedroom running. Lorelei returns dressed in a black two piece. She scans the room.

"Shit. That's a hell of a mess." She says

She moves to sit on my lap and we wait.

Hayley wakes first, Elijah a few moments after.

"What happened?" Hayley asks groggily

"Everyone's safe. That's all that matters." Lorelei says

She helps Hayley up and helps her to her bedroom.

Lorelei fills us in on what we missed. Elijah explains that he couldn't find Hayley and was jumped, then he woke up here.

I grab my jacket and head for the gate. Lorelei looks me.

"Where are you going?" She asks

" Well unfortunately compulsion may not have worked on the company's CEO so I am off to make sure I got my point across." I say

"Can I come this time?"

I gesture for her to follow and we take off into the night.
