《The Immortals》Alaric
Advertisement
Finding Klaus was the easy part. Stefan told Julie who was sent with Rebekah to collect him.
"You know, if you stay with us, you'll have to run for the rest of your life," Rebekah told her as they were driving.
"I know."
"You're sure my brother is worth it?"
Julie looked up at the blonde and nodded. "I'm sure."
Rebake smiled. "I'm glad to finally have a sister."
Julie smiled back. "Me too."
When they arrived at the storage, there were no trace of Damon.
"Damon!" Rebekah called. "Where are you?"
"Where is he?" Julie sighed.
"Damon this isn't funny!"
"This place is huge."
They kept walking, looking for the vampire. Suddenly, Julie was grabbed by someone and brought against a wall.
"Shh," Damon shush them as Rebekah was about to attack him. "He's here," he silently said with his lips.
"Julie, leave, now," Rebekah said.
"No way," she whispered back. "You need me here, I can help. And don't touch me again," she told Damon.
"Come with me, we'll get Klaus out, but stay silent," he told them.
He lead them to the storage and got the coffin. They almost made it to the car when they were stopped by Alaric. He appeared, vampire speed, in front of them. He tried to grab Rebekah but Julie managed to use the element of air to stop him. He was sent against a wall and the pressure made it so he couldn't move.
"Hurry, I don't think I can hold him for long," she told them. She had never used her power against someone as strong as Alaric and she could feel herself getting weaker and weaker.
"I will kill you," Alaric threatened.

The coffin was finally in the truck and Damon was behind the wheel, ready to go.
"Let's go Julie!"
Julie tried to trap him in a circle of fire but she was certain it wouldn't last. She hurried in the car and Damon drove away as fast as he could.
"He'll follow us," Julie said, out of breath and feeling exhausted.
"He'll follow us until he dies," Rebekah reminded her. "Are you okay?" she asked.
"Yeah, don't worry about me," she answered.
"Julie, you're bleeding," the blonde told her with a worried look.
"What?" she frowned. She brought her fingers to her nose and felt hot liquid. She looked at her fingers and they were read. "It's just a nose bleed," she said.
"He's just behind us, can't you do something?" Damon asked.
"What do you want me to do?" Rebekah replied.
"I wasn't talking to you!"
"Uh..." Julie looked out the window to try and see Alaric but she couldn't see anything. Her headache was getting stronger and stronger. "I...I don't know."
Rebekah bit her wrist. "Here, take my blood. Maybe it'll make you feel better."
Julie hesitated but drank anyway. "Thanks," she nodded, she did feel a little better. "Can you see him?" she asked.
"No," Damon answered. "But I'm sure he's clo... Damn it!"
The car suddenly went left. Damon had turned the wheel to avoid hitting Alaric who was in the middle of the road. Julie, Damon and Rebekah got out without a scratch.
Alaric jumped on the Original vampire and grabbed her by the hair and knocked her out. Damon tried to stop him but Alaric pushed him off against a tree. He walked his way to the back of the car, the stake in his hand, ready to kill Klaus. But as he was about to open the trunk, his hand caught on fire.

"Back off," Julie told him, out of breath. She was breathing heavily trying to concentrate. She knew if she failed at stopping him Klaus and Rebekah would die. "Back off," she repeated, waving her arm, using the element of air to send him away. He let go of the stake which she picked up quickly before she went around the car to find Rebekah.
"Wake up, Rebekah, I can't do this alone!"
"No, you can't," Alaric said.
She turned around to see him inches from her. She squeezed the stake hard in her hand ready to do what she had to do. But it never came to that. Damon appeared behind him and snapped his neck.
"He will be back, we need to leave, now!"
Damon put Rebekah in the back of the car and left. Julie was on the passenger seat, the stake in hand.
"So we have the stake now, everything didn't exactly go as planned but the result is still the same," she said nervous.
"You're one feisty thing," Damon told her.
"...Thanks, I guess..."
The rest of the drive went smoothly, Rebekah woke up a few minutes before they arrived in Mystic Falls. They met as planned in the forest where Stefan, Caroline, Jeremy and Elijah were waiting for them in case Alaric had managed to follow them.
As soon as Julie got out of the car she rushed towards Elijah.
"Are you okay?" he asked, worried, when he saw the blood on her clothes.
"I'm fine," she gave him a smile she wanted reassuring.
"We need to go, now," Rebekah reminded them. "We have the stake and Klaus and we need to be gone before Alaric arrives."
"She's right," Elijah nodded. "Thank you for your cooperation," he told Stefan.
Elijah got behind the wheel and Julie sat on the passenger seat next to him. Rebekah got in the back knowing something they didn't. She had called her brother to tell him what was happening and just like her he had no intention on running for another century. Now that their father was dead, they were free and if there was a way to kill Alaric then they would do just that. Kol was on his way to kill Elena and he was closer than his sister thought.

Dungeon Scholar
Girl meets dungeon. What could go right? A story of a good-hearted Scholar driven by her compassion and curiosity. She might be a little combat averse, but um, isn't that only logical? Love me a good grimdark, but sometimes I want to read feel-good fiction that isn't pure action, romance, or comedy. The plot and characters of Dungeon Scholar won't be all happy and fluffy, and the world will be more dungeons and monsters than rainbows and puppies, but overall the sweet moments should overshadow the bitter. Let's say three dollops of sugar for every pinch of salt, with lemon slices left on the saucers? Enjoy. Note: This is NOT a typical dungeon story. If you are here for the dungeon aspect, then fair warning this will seem incredibly slow-burn to you. The dungeon will eventually become the most important 'character,' arguably, or the second-most important narratively, but you might jump out the window in frustration long before that happens. At its heart, the story's core remains 'girl meets dungeon,' not 'dungeon meets world.' (To be clear, this does or will have a plot! It's just the more conventional story-like elements contribute to Rowena Loress's greater story, not the other way around; no conflict takes center stage until it becomes personally significant to her. Meanwhile, have some Slice of Life.) Updates every Friday Cover made using Waifulabs Written using 4thewords (referral code: UZJRY55368)
