The temperature seemed to have dropped ten degrees as Evangeline left her car and approached the Salvatore Boardinghouse. She felt like she was going to regret going there she knew that Elena was going to be there and as much as she didn't wish to speak to her, much less beg for her help, her life literally depended on it. The hard part was going to be getting the doppelganger to speak to her alone.

Evan knew that if her brothers overheard her trying to convince her to help with another ritual, they would never allow her to participate. That was the only issue. The female Salvatore had a plan for everything else but that. But, on the bright side, there was no sign of Damon's car so she only had to deal with Stefan, much easier and much less opinionated and obnoxious about things.

Taking another deep breath, Evan raised her fist to knock only for the doppelganger to pull open to the door in that exact moment. Wide eyed, Evan quickly put a finger to her lips to get the doppelganger not to say a word, praying that the girl would listen. She didn't know if it was the puppy dog eyes she gave or Elena's being prone to doing things that the Salvatore brothers hated but the doppelganger nodded and Evan backed up so that she could close the door behind her.

Once they were a good enough distance from the home, Evan finally spoke.

"Look, I know you probably hate me for a lot of things but I wouldn't come here if it wasn't important" The curly brunette heard the girl's sporadic heartbeat and knew she needed to act fast.

The straight-haired girl sighed, "Look, whatever Klaus sent you about, I want nothing to do with it"

Evan felt slightly offended that the girl thought that Klaus used her as a puppet but she held her tongue because arguing about her superiority would just waste time.

"It's Bonnie's mom, right? You two are on the outs because she's a vampire from my brother's trying to save your life again"

The Gilbert looked appalled, "How the hell did you know that?"

"Connections" also known as Anastasia White, "It's a small town Elena, it's hard not to know what's going on around here...it's Alaric too, isn't it? The history teacher with the ring problems"

Anastasia caught Evan up with what was going on with Elena and her Scooby gang was dealing with so that she knew what she was up again. The White witch also gave Evan her secret weapon that was going to hopefully stabilize the deal with Elena.

Elena rolled her eyes, "It's not that simple"

"I never said it was" Evan responded, "I just simply summarized it from the lack of time"

"You sound like him" Elena spat, sounding completely disgusted.

It was Evan's turn to roll her eyes, "No, I sound like myself, you're just trying to find a reason to dislike me"

"I don't need to find one, there's plenty" Elena snapped back, attempting to open the driver's door to her car but Evan stopped her.

"Elena, look" She began blocking the brunette from the door, "I know you don't like me because I'm with Klaus but you of all people should at least understand where I'm coming from even a little because he is my mate and you know that. He and I are literally prophesized to be together and again, you know that."

The Katerina-look-alike paused for a second, obviously irritated with the truth before rolling her eyes again, "Whatever, it doesn't make him less of a bad guy"

"And I'm not here to convince you that he isn't a bad guy Elena" Evan reminded.

"Then what are you here for?"

Evan sighed, "Before I say anything, I just need you to listen. I would not come to you if I did not desperately need your help"

The doppelganger wore disdain on her face but Evan knew that she would be willing to at least listen to what she had to say.

"Alright...let's meet at your place and we can talk there, you don't even have to invite me in, we can talk on the porch"

"Fine"

~*~*~

The entire drive to the Gilbert Residence, Evan felt like she was preparing to do a presentation in school because she had gone over what she was going to say to the doppelganger at least fifty times. The Hybrid woman wasn't nervous but she was just anxious and she hated the fact that her life was in the hands of a teenaged human. For a short moment she began to blame coming to the town for her troubles but she knew that she would have been in the situation no matter what. Klaus was her mate by destiny, she would have ended up in Mystic Falls whether she liked it or not.

Elena was the first to get out of her car, then Evangeline. The Gilbert teen took a seat on the steps and the Salvatore woman stood for a while before joining her and sighing.

"There's another ritual..." Evangeline began, avoiding the eyes of the teenager.

Elena's eyes widened immediately, "What?! No—No, I don't care about whatever you're about to say just go! I will not be put through another—"

"Elena! Just listen!" Evangeline exclaimed, quieting the teen, "I understand completely that you don't want to do the ritual, hell I don't even want to do the damn thing but the process of Klaus and I's mating comes from three parts that are three rituals. His was the most brutal, which you know of course"

Elena looked at the ground, "No one is dying because of the two of you"

"That's the thing" Evan said, "No one you care about is going to die. You don't even have to be sacrificed"

"Okay..." Elena trailed off looking at the hybrid woman suspiciously, "What's the catch?"

"The 'catch' is nothing, all we need is your blood, that's it" Evan said simply, "The second part of the ritual is that I have to drink the blood of the doppelganger as well as the blood of each being that I am a hybrid of and that will cure me of the impending doom that is being a hybrid, unus ignis mix"

"So what happens if I don't help you" Elena asked and Evan expected that question exactly and knew it was time for the ultimatum.

"Then I will die, most likely by the end of the year and Klaus will most likely meet his doom by his own hand because of the loss and as amazing as that probably sounds for you, there is one problem..." Evan paused just to rile up the human.

Elena waited for a few seconds, basically bouncing from her spot on the porch but once she realized the hybrid wasn't going to continue speaking she burst.

"What?! What's the problem?"

"If Klaus dies, every vampire that was created from his blood dies as well and the vampires created from their blood will die also, it will just be a chain of deaths...pretty unsatisfying and mentally scarring" Evan said with a disgusted look on her face.

"So..." Elena questioned not understanding why it mattered.

"My brothers were created from Katerina's blood and her creation is tied to Klaus, therefore, if my mate goes down, my brothers are going down with him"

Elena's jaw dropped and her eyes began to water, "You...you're lying"

"I'm not" Evan said in a solid voice, "I would not lie about that just to get my way Elena"

The brunette shook her head, "Yes you would, look at who you're destined to be with. Klaus does that all the time!"

Frustration ran through the Salvatore woman's veins at the comparison, "Again, Elena he's my mate not my master! I make my own choices and I don't lie to get people to do what I want! I am telling you the honest truth whether you want to believe it or not"

Elena looked away, not saying another word.

"Look, I know it's a lot to think about so I don't need the answer to day but I will need to know by sunset tomorrow. Just think about it Elena, if Klaus and I are able to fully become mates, we want to leave. We have no reasons to stay in Mystic Falls and we just want to spend the eternity together. We're in love, surely you know what that's like" Evan paused, watching the young girl's expression soften.

"When I met him, he was the last person I would be interested in but we were drawn together. Spending those weeks with him in order to try to save Damon showed me a side of him I never would have seen before and I legitimately fell in love deeply, for the first time in my life. We just want to be happy and if we can finish this ritual, we can be. Don't look at it as helping out the evil, conniving Klaus and his mate but just being responsible for saving thousands of lives by allowing me and the mate bond to neutralize a man who knew nothing but torture for the past thousand years"

~*~*~

Niklaus Mikaelson opened the door for his mate before she could even turn the handle and brought her into his arms. He could hear her nervous heartbeat before she put the car in park and his wolf was screaming at him to calm her down and he was successful. The warm affection made her heartbeat slow back to its normal pace as she sighed into his chest.

The pair backed into the mansion and closed the door, slowly breaking the hug as they approached the couch where Evan took her place in Klaus's lap and laid her head on his shoulder.

"I tried Nik, I really did" Evan murmured as Klaus wrapped his finger around a small curl that had freed itself from her bun.

"I know, love" The hybrid man said softly, kissing his mate's forehead lovingly as their inner creatures howled in contentment.

"With that little piece of information I gave Elena, I'm sure they're all running around like maniacs because they've realized they can't kill you...they really hate you, Nik" Evangeline informed with a bit of amusement in her voice.

The hybrid shrugged, "Yes but you don't, therefore they are tremendously irrelevant"

His woman broke into a smile and shook her head, "Wow Nik, as important as I feel please don't let them know that that's your standing until after the doppelganger makes her choice"

Klaus chuckled and pulled her closer to his chest, "I thought you loved me for my personality"

"I do" Evan said pecking his lips, "But they don't...where's Rebekah?"

Klaus sighed placing his hand on his mate's lower thigh and squeezing it to diffuse the frustration coming on to him, "Trying to find leads on the white oak tree that we seemed to miss"

"And I assume she's not keeping you updated?" Evan said, shifting her position on his lap and massaging his scalp in a way that always soothed him.

"You know my sister and her reckless and naïve ways" The man leaning his head forward a bit and closing his eyes, "Dear Angel, I believe if I did not have you I would be ripping off heads at this point"

Evan sighed and rose to her knees, hovering above her man while gently leaning him back onto the couch, "Well you have me and we have Anastasia, who is going to be able to take care of everything in regards to the ritual and I have a good feeling that we'll have Elena too"

The man smiled at his woman, she was beautiful and she was his light...his optimism. Klaus put his hands on Evan's waist and brought her back down to his lap, capturing her lips with his. She responded immediately, clenching her curly locks in her fists as she kissed him back with equal pressure. They felt their stress releasing through the kiss and their bodies heating up.

As Klaus readjusted their positioning, laying his mate beneath him, Evangeline could feel what felt like fire coming up her throat. She pulled away immediately and began coughing, pushing Klaus away and speeding to the nearest trashcan as she felt her throat disintegrating under the flames rising from her lungs.

By the time she was outside of the door she could barely walk or see through the tears filling her eyes as she coughed uncontrollably. The felt the heat rising then the steam and then she was screaming. Her screams shook not only the mansion but the wolf inside her mate.

Klaus fell beside her, taken over by his wolf and as she screamed his bones broke. Fire erupted from the woman's oral cavity as fur broke through the man's skin. Her eyes lit on fire, her eyes elongated as well as his. He grew wolfish canines and she adopted lethal fangs.

For the first time, Evangeline's skin changed from smooth and honey brown to brownish red and scaly as she grew claws and she felt her back breaking as wings tried to break through her skin.

Within moments, Klaus became his wolf and Evan became her dragon.
