《Is This Hell?》Homecoming part 2

Nik led Elena into the finished Mikaelson mansion with Rebekah walking beside them. As they walked into what Elena assumed was the living room, they saw a coffin laying on the table.

"Nik?" Rebekah asked hopefully.

"I was going to wake up him before the party but something got in the way." Nik said, more to Elena than to Rebekah, then he turned fully to his sister. "Now that Mikael is dead, we can wake up the rest of our siblings, starting with Elijah."

Rebekah smiled brightly and walked over to open the lid of the coffin, she reached inside to pull the dagger out but stopped.

"You seem to be wanting to do this since I met you, so why don't you pull the dagger out?" Rebekah smirked at Elena.

"Together?" Elena asked with a teasing smile as she went to stand beside Rebekah.

They wrapped their hands around the dagger and pulled it out and with a small smiled Elena had an idea to speed up the process.

"Fang." She said to Rebekah.

"What?" Rebekah looked confused. "What for?"

"You'll see." Elena smirked. "Now, fang."

Rebekah, still looking confused, brought her vampire visage to the front and let Elena gut her wrist on her fangs.

Both Nik and Rebekah watched in confusion and fascination as Elena gently opened Elijah's mouth a little and let her blood drip into his mouth and throat. They understood why she did that when they saw how quickly Elijah regain the color of his skin and sat up.

Elena gave a pleasurable sigh as Elijah sat up and softly started to suck on her wrist. Both Nik and Elijah felt a stirring in their pants at the sigh and Rebekah started to smirk when she noticed her brother's reactions.

"Thank you, Elena." Elijah gave her a charming smile as he pulled away from her wrist.

"You're welcome." Elena looked away with a blush, and what was with her and blushing around Elijah and Nik?

Suddenly Elijah was up and punched Nik across the face, then he fixed the cuffs of his shirt like nothing had happened, "You deserved that."

"He did." Rebekah laughed and hugged Elijah.

"Rebekah." Elijah smiled as he hugged his little sister back.

"Mikael's dead." Nik spoke up as Elijah and Rebekah pulled back from each other.

"What?" Elijah turned to Nik with a look that demanded he explain everything.

Nik, Rebekah and Elena took turns explaining everything that had happened since Nik daggered Elijah.

"Are you sure I was only daggered for a few months?" Elijah asked as he looked at Elena.

"Yeah, I'm sure." Elena giggled.

Nik's phone rang and with a sigh he picked up. "Hello."

"Hello, Klaus." Stef's voice came from the other end.

"Stef?" Nik sounded confused as he put the phone on speaker.

"You and your friends ruined the plan to kill you!" Stef snarled loudly. "So now I'm going to take everything from you."

"What are you talking about?" Nik growled.

"I know that I can't take Elena, the woman both you and your brother are slowly but surely falling in love with." Elena blushed while staring at the phone in Nik's hand, while doing her best not to look at either Elijah or Nik. "She is too well protected. Not only by you but by her friends and family. So I took the next best thing."

"What did you take?!" Nik demanded to know.

"Seen your family lately?" Stef hung up with a laugh.

Nik looked at his phone for a second before he vamp-sped out of the room. He was back a few minutes later looking absolutely livid.

"He took the coffins with our family!" Nik snarled.

Elijah, Rebekah and Nik shared a look of determination and Elena walked up to the three of them. "I will do whatever I can to help you get them back."

XOXOXOX

Four days later, Elena walked into the Mikaelson mansion wearing black leather pants, black boots, a black flowy top, a forest green unbuttoned button up and her hair braided into a mohawk.

"I need your help." Elena looked between Elijah and Nik.

"Mine or Niklaus?" Elijah asked pleasantly.

"Either or both, doesn't matter." Elena looked agitated.

"What can we help you with, love?" Nik looked at her.

"I need to kill something but I can't do this in Mystic Falls, so I need one or both of you to come with me and Jeremy as we go on a killing spree." Elena told them.

"Why do you need our help with that?" Elijah raised an eyebrow in confusion.

"Well, technically I don't but I thought you two might need a bit of a let loose moment to." Elena shrugged. "Rebekah went shopping with Bonnie so that left you two alone. Now, are you coming or not?"

"How about we go to Porterdale?" Nik stood up with a smile. "It's a small town with under 2000 inhabitants where we can have a little bloody fun."

"Yay!" Elena did a little happy dance, not seeing both Klaus and Elijah looking at her with soft smiles.

"I'll drive." Elijah chuckled as he walked towards the door.

"This is going to be awesome." Jeremy looked happy as Elena walked out of the mansion with Elijah and Klaus.

Elena and Jeremy hopped into the backseat while Klaus took the passenger seat and Elijah drove. The ride to Porterdale took a lot less time than it should with Elijah driving, if the speed went lower than 100mph Elena would eat a plum, and she absolutely hated plums.

"So..." Jeremy looked at Elijah with bright eyes. "Can you teach me to drive like this?"

"The only reason I can drive like this is because of my supernatural reflexes." Elijah smiled at him in the mirror.

"Oh." Jeremy looked slightly disappointed.

"If you want to be turned, you just have to ask." Elijah told him.

"And if my brother isn't there to do it, I will." Nik spoke up.

"Can I think about it?" Jeremy asked hesitantly.

"Of course, you can." Elijah nodded with a reassuring smile.

"Lena?" Jeremy murmured softly.

"If being a vampire is what you want then I'll support you 100%." Elena did her best to side hug her little brother. "And I'll destroy everyone who tries to take your choice away from you. I shall rain down fire and blood."

"Thank you, Khaleesi." Jeremy chuckled but hugged back just as tightly.

"Khaleesi?" Nik turned around in his seat to look at them.

"Haven't either of you read 'A Song of Ice and Fire'?" Elena looked between the two brothers in the front seat.

"No, I have had other things to think about." Nik shrugged.

"I've been a tiny bit pre-occupied." Elijah raised a sarcastic eyebrow.

"Okay, spill." Elena demanded as she narrowed her eyes at Elijah. "How do you do that?"

"Do what?" Elijah asked, sounding slightly confused.

"Make your eyebrow convey that much sarcasm." Elena deadpanned.

Nik and Jeremy started to laugh as Elijah started to smirk, "That is a secret I'll never tell."

"Oh come on!" Elena threw her hands up, then she smiled sweetly. "Would you be up to negotiate for the secret, oh sensei?"

Elijah just smirked at her through the mirror as Nik and Jeremy finally calmed down from their laughter.

"Oh, you should give up. I've been trying for years to get him to tell me." Nik chuckled softly.

"Of course, he won't tell you." Elena huffed. "You're his little brother."

"What's that got to do with anything?" Jeremy wanted to know.

"There are things, beloved baby brother of mine, that an older sibling just doesn't tell their younger siblings." Elena hummed. "It's like an unwritten rule or something."

"Oh, so it's almost the same as the unwritten rule that states that a younger sibling is not allowed to tell older singling some things." Nik nodded with a teasing smile.

"Oh... okay, now I understand why." Jeremy agreed with Nik.

There was quiet in the car until all four of them started to laugh. After that they kept up the light banter and teasing until Elijah pulled in to a bar and parked the car.

"There are around thirty people in there right now." Nik said as they all got out of the car. "What do you want to do?"

Elena and Jeremy shared a look before Elena smirked darkly, "We order some food and then we eat, after that... well, who knows?"

The four of them made their way into the bar, all of them feeling the eyes on them but ignoring it. Elena smirked, of course they would look. First you have Elijah looking all gorgeous in a suit with a jawline made for biting, then there's Nik with his blue eyes, dimpled smirk and an aura of danger and lastly you had Jeremy with his broad shoulders, charming boyish smile and warm brown eyes.

"Good evening, gorgeous." The bartender said as soon as Elena sat down. "What can I getcha?"

"Steak, fries and a coke." Elena said simply, not really noticing the way the man was looking at her, but her three companions did and all of them glared.

"I'll have the BBQ ribs and a coke." Jeremy ordered coldly.

"Bourbon." Nik growled.

"Whiskey on the rocks." Elijah looked down on the man with a badly hidden sneer.

Elena ate her steak and fries when they arrived, stealing sips of Nik's bourbon, not seeing the smiles Elijah and Nik were sending her.

"I noticed when I was in Alaric Saltzman's body that you seem to have love for bourbon." Nik spoke up after a while. "When did that start?"

"I don't know." Elena shrugged. "I just know that bourbon is really good and that I seem to have a very high alcohol tolerance."

"High alcohol tolerance?" Jeremy scoffed. "Your tolerance isn't high, Elena, it's infinite! I have never seen you drunk, okay? I have seen you slightly tipsy, but never drunk and the tipsy goes away very quickly."

"What are you not telling us?" Elijah asked as he watched her bite her lip with a peculiar look on her face.

"Well..." Elena trailed off.

"Love?" Nik coxed softly as he put a hand on her arm.

"I can't get drunk or even tipsy anymore." Elena rushed out. "Not since the ritual."

"What do you mean?" Jeremy looked at his sister with worried eyes.

"I started to notice when me and Aunt Jenna had a girl's night and we were drinking." Elena played with the straw in her coke glass. "And while Jenna kept getting tipsier, I didn't feel anything, so I started to freak a little."

"What did you do?" Elijah placed a soft hand on the arm opposite the one Nik had a hand on.

"I went to the boarding house when I knew Enzo and Damon where gone and I drank four and a half bottles of bourbon in less than two hours." Elena tried to say it as quickly as possible.

"That could have killed you!" Jeremy gasped.

"Jeremy, it should have killed me." Elena looked at him with big eyes. "And it didn't even make me the slightest bit tipsy."

"I am so very sorry." Elijah looked down with shame written all over his face.

"Why are you apologizing?" Elena tilted her head as she turned to him.

"I gave you that potion to bring you back after the sacrifice." Elijah murmured softly. "I didn't know it would change you."

"I don't think it's only that." Elena said slowly. "I think it's a combination of different things."

"Of what?" Nik wondered, not even mad that his brother had managed to use the potion on Elena.

"The potion probably played a part but..." Elena turned towards Nik. "Have you ever heard the saying: 'A willing sacrifice is a powerful thing'?"

"Wait... are you saying...?" Nik faltered as he looked between Elena, Elijah and Jeremy.

"I don't know to which degree we are bound together but we somehow are." Elena looked him straight in the eyes. "How else would you explain you just knowing that I was in danger? Even when you were several miles away?"

"Is that why the hybrids are looking at you as if they were sired to you too but in a lesser degree?" Jeremy asked, having noticed the hybrids reaction to his sister.

"We should ask a witch we trust to see if they can feel the bond or even if they can figure out what is happening." Elijah looked thoughtful.

"Can we stop with the heavy stuff for a while?" Elena pleaded. "We did come here for a reason."

"And what would that reason be, beautiful?" An unwashed, smelly man asked with a leer from Elena's left.

Elena turned to him with a pleasant smile. "Murder."

"What?" The unwashed man asked with a frown.

"Murder," Elena repeated as she stabbed him in the eye with her fork and a few seconds later her knife went into the man's throat, severing the artery there.

The screams started as Elena looked up at her brother and the two Originals with a smile, blood splattered on her face, and after they had smiled back, the four of them went about their killing spree. Nik and Elijah had decided to let Elena and Jeremy have most of the fun while they picked off the ones that tried to run out of the bar.

Elena kept a hold on her steak knife, using it to stab people left, right and center, while a happy smile and a bright, tinkling laugh slipped from her lips. Every few minutes she would look up at her three companions to see what they were doing.

She admired the way Elijah killed so very gracefully, not getting a drop of blood on his suit, the way Nik savagely ripped people apart, his hybrid visage on full display, Jeremy and his way of breaking necks, just the way Damon had taught him.

"Having fun, little brother?" Elena asked as they walked together towards a woman trying to hide behind the bar.

"I haven't had this fun in ages." Jeremy chuckled. "And you, sister-mine?"

"Oh, the freedom and the weight lifting of my shoulders is amazing." Elena smiled brightly.

"Where do you think you're going?" Jeremy grabbed the woman as she tried to dart past him.

"Yeah, we're not done playing yet." Elena pouted. "Everyone else died too quickly."

The woman stopped struggling as she looked around the bar and when she saw that she was the only one left alive, she started to blubber with snot and tears running down her face.

"What should we do with you now?" Jeremy hummed as he played with a knife he had found on one of the bodies.

"Just let me go." The woman begged.

"Where's the fun in that?" Elena asked almost gently. "What's your name?"

"W... wh...what?" The woman sobbed.

"What's your name?" Elena repeated, sounding slightly annoyed.

"I would answer her." Jeremy spoke up. "She tends to get stabby when people ignore her."

"Sarah." The woman, Sarah, answered quickly.

"Aww, did you have to warn her?" Elena pouted at her brother. "I wanted to stab her."

"My apologize, sister-mine." Jeremy smiled at Elena. "But I think our Aunt would dislike us playing with the food."

"You're probably right." Elena nodded thoughtfully.

"You can't eat me!" Sarah screamed at them in fear.

"What?" Elena looked shocked for a second before she started to laugh. "Oh, don't be silly, we're not going to eat you."

"B... b... but h... he said that you s... sh... shouldn't play with y... your food." Sarah stuttered.

"No I said we shouldn't play with the food." Jeremy corrected.

"But..." Sarah looked confused.

"We won't eat you." Elena reassured and when Sarah started to slump in relief she smirked, gestured to Elijah and Nik and continued, "They on the other hand, might."

Elijah let his vampire visage come forward as he smirked darkly at the woman, seeming to enjoy letting go of his morals and rules for once, surrounded by people he knew wouldn't judge him for his savage side.

Nik followed Elijah's lead by letting his own hybrid face come to the front, loving having his older brother by his side at the same time as he had his cub and his mate. Wait...? Cub? Mate? What was going on?

He was knocked out of his little thinking session by the acrid smell of urine. "That is just disgusting."

"So uncivilized." Elijah muttered while sneering in revulsion as he smelled the piss.

"Eww." Elena gagged as she saw what the Original brothers where disgusted by.

"Seriously?" Jeremy asked with a nauseated look on his face.

"I'm not touching... that." Nik gestured to Sarah.

"I agree completely with my brother." Elijah nodded.

"I don't want to either." Jeremy looked at Elena.

"There might be something we can do." Elena said thoughtfully as she looked around.

"What chaos is brewing in your mind, love?" Nik asked with a smirk.

"Well, you or Elijah could just compel her to kill herself you know." Elena smirked. "But make it fun."

"What say you, little brother?" Elijah smiled darkly. "How shall we do this?"

"Make her break her own bones with a hammer?" Nik suggested.

"Start cutting of her own body parts?" Elijah hummed.

"Carve pieces of her own flesh away and put them in the fire?" Nik chuckled.

"I know." Elijah smirked and turned to compel Sarah. "Take the knife that Elena will put on the table and slit your own throat, slowly."

"Oh, that's a good one." Elena cackled as she put the knife in her hand on the table.

Elena watched, almost bouncing in place, as Sarah grabbed the knife and slowly slit her own throat. It was fascinating to see her do it and Elena assumed that the only reason she managed to slit the whole way, from ear to ear, was because of the compulsion.

"So..." Jeremy spoke up as Sarah died. "How do we get rid of the evidence?"

"That's the easy part." Nik laughed and threw an arm over Jeremy's shoulders. "We burn it down."

"The whole bar?" Jeremy asked in awe with eyes sparkling with excitement.

"The whole bar." Nik assured him.

"Epic." Jeremy breathed out.

The 'cleaning up' went faster than Elena had thought it would. Together the four of them poured alcohol and other very flammable substances all over the inside of the bar before Elijah set it on fire and they walked back out to the car.

They stood and watched as the bar went up in flames and it was as Elena looked at the happiness on her little brothers face that she decided that getting him a flamethrower for his birthday might be an idea.

As they made their way home Nik ended up driving with Jeremy in the passenger seat, asking him about all the torture and mayhem Nik had created over the years which Nik seemed to be delighted about. Elena on the other hand, ended up falling asleep cuddled up to Elijah in the backseat with a content smile on her face. Just before she fell asleep, she felt Elijah pull her closer and nuzzle her hair with a whispered "Mine."
