"So I'm confused. If we were such great friends, why do I only know you as the hybrid d*ck who sacrificed my girlfriend on an altar of fire?" The Salvatore asked Klaus. "Huh?"

The blond smiled in amusement and replied, "All good things must come to an end."

The hybrid was brought into another flashback.

"You compelled me to forget." Stefan concluded.

Klaus had a serious expression on his face as he looked at his drink. "It was time for Rebekah and I to move on. Better to have a clean slate."

He drank the rest of the alcohol in his glass. The demigod continued eating her wings.

Stefan was confused. "But why? You shouldn't have to cover your tracks...unless you're running from someone."

"Story time's over." Klaus said firmly, ending the conversation.

The vampire rose from his seat. "I need another drink. A real one."

Stefan left and the hybrid picked up the bottle of alcohol. He refilled his glass.

Percy could tell he was upset. "Do you want a wing?" She offered.

Klaus shook his head. "No, thank you."

Someone leaned on the bar next to them.

"I see they've opened the doors to the riff raff now." The original commented.

Percy looked over to see Damon Salvatore.

He responded, "Oh honey, I've been called worse."

Klaus chuckled. He played with a mini umbrella that came with this drink. "You don't give up do you?"

"Nope." The sea green eyed girl answered for him.

Damon replied, "Give me my brother and Percy back, and you'll never have to see me again."

"Well, I am torn. You see, I promised Stefan I wouldn't let you die, but how many freebies did I really sign up for?"

"I think there's definitely more freebies left." Percy stated as she wiped her hands on a napkin.

"I don't know, love." He turned his attention back to Damon. "And clearly you want to die, otherwise you wouldn't be here, so..."

The raven haired vampire replied, "What can I say? I'm a thrill seeker."

Klaus's hand shot out to wrap around Damon's neck.

Percy was out of her seat and between the two within seconds. The demigod's hand grabbed the hybrid's arm. "Let him go." She said through clenched teeth.

"I don't think I will." Klaus continued, "Oh, dear, what was that? I'm a little boozey. So you'll forgive me if I miss your heart the first few tries." He tried to stab Damon with a toothpick.

Percy grabbed the mini umbrella and threw it. She forced Klaus's hand off of Damon. The demigod stood in front of the older Salvatore, blocking the hybrid from him.

"I can do this all day."

Damon spoke up from behind her. "Forget Stefan and Percy. I'm so much more fun."

"No, I'm way more fun." The demigod pouted.

Klaus sped around the demigod and threw the Salvatore in the air. He crashed into a table.

The blond broke a leg off of the chair, making a makeshift stake.

Percy once again intercepted. She kicked the stake out of his hand. The hybrid made a movement towards her and she swiftly twisted his arm behind his back.

"Are you having fun?" Percy asked him as she chuckled.

Klaus responded, "Tons, love." He yanked his arm from her grip. The hybrid sped to pick up the wooden stake again.

Suddenly the stake burst into flames. Klaus threw the stake to avoid getting burned. He looked back at Gloria. "Really?"

"Not in my bar. You take it outside."

The original glared at Damon. "You don't have to negotiate your brother's freedom. When I'm done with him, he won't want to go back."

Stefan, Percy, and Klaus were driving back to the warehouse.

The demigod convinced Damon to take the puppy back to Mystic Falls with him. She wasn't able to give Rudy enough attention and Percy remembered Caroline mentioning how much she wanted to have a puppy.

The demigod figured Rudy would be better taken care of with the Forbes girl.

Still, Percy was going to miss him and his adorable brown eyes.

Suddenly the demigod's monster senses picked up.

"Klaus, stop the car."

The hybrid looked over at her with furrowed brows. "Why? I-" His words cut off as he looked at something behind her with shock.

Percy glanced out the window. The minotaur was standing near the side of the road near a bunch of trees.

"What the bloody hell is that?" Klaus asked, freaked out.

The demigod unbuckled her seat belt and opened the door. The hybrid grabbed her arm. "Stay here."

Percy rolled her eyes and yanked her arm from his grip.

Jumping out of the car, she yells out, "Meathead, it's been a while."

The minotaur charged at the demigod.

"Percy!" Klaus shouted out, wanting her to return to the car. Both the vampire and hybrid exited the car.

She ignored him and pulled out her sword. "You might want to move the car."

"Why?"

Right before the minotaur could crash into her, Percy moved to the side. It ran into the car causing the vehicle to skid across the street with a huge dent in it.

"Hey, Meathead, over here." She ran to a spot away from Klaus and Stefan.

The minotaur rushed at her again. At the last moment, Percy rolled to the side.

"I think you missed." She called out.

The minotaur got frustrated and galloped toward the sea green eyed girl again.

Once again she moved to the side. "You are just too slow."

She was having fun. Percy hadn't gotten to really fight in a while. The thing at the bar wasn't very exciting.

The monster grew furious. It barreled toward the demigod. This time he was faster.

Percy remembered when the same monster once grabbed her mother. A similar rage took over as the memory resurfaced.

She wondered if she could do the same move she did years ago. Rushing forward, she used the creature's head to jump off of and turned midair, landing on its back.

Her actions were done with ease. The precision and naturalness of Percy's movements were otherworldly. She had the grace of an angel, yet when put in the right situation had the capabilities of the devil.

Her eyes glowed a bright ethereal green as she ripped one of the horns off the monster.

The minotaur let out a pained sound. Percy did an perfect flip off of the being and plunged the horn into its chest.

The monster dissipated into dust.

Percy grinned. Not even a drop of sweat or any sign of exhaustion was on the demigod.

The horn she ripped off was left behind on the ground. Percy picked it up and jogged back to Klaus and Stefan.

The pair were in shock. Their eyes continued staring at the space where the monster was previously standing. They were completely and utterly baffled. The scene they just witnessed mystified them.

Klaus came out of his shock first. "How...?"

Percy shrugged. "That was nothing." She flicked her wrist, dismissing it.

"But-" Stefan started. He didn't know how to finish the statement. They were both impressed by her agility and still in shock from seeing the monster.

Apparently, being supernatural themselves, allowed them to see through the mist.

The sea green eyed girl laughed. "Let's go."

•••••••

The three arrived back at the warehouse. Stefan stayed outside the warehouse while the demigod and hybrid walked in.

"You fight those things often?" The hybrid questioned.

Percy shrugged, "Meh."

She was looking forward to meeting Rebekah. They approached her coffin to see it was empty.

"Dun dun dun."

Klaus looked around. "Rebekah..."

"It's your big brother. Come out, come out, wherever you are."

Something sped past Percy. The original stabbed the hybrid with the silver dagger, causing him to gasp.

"Go to hell, Nik!" Rebekah exclaimed.

Percy laughed and automatically knew she would get along with the original.

Klaus removed the dagger from his chest and dropped it on the floor.

"Don't pout. You knew it wouldn't kill me." Klaus said as he looked at his sister.

Returning his gaze, she replied, "Yeah, but I was hoping it would hurt more."

"Oh, I love her. Your siblings are fantastic!" Percy completely understood the wish to stab Klaus with a dagger.

Rebekah turned to face the demigod. She walked over and sent her a smile. "And who might you be?"

"I'm Percy." The demigod replied with a grin.

"Rebekah."

"Elijah was right. You are the coolest."

The original looked confused but a bit happy to hear the sea green eyed girl's statement. She wasn't expecting to hear that when she first woke up. "You know Elijah?" She spoke softly.

Percy nodded. "Yeah, we were becoming friends but then this one decided to shove a dagger in his heart." She pointed to the hybrid.

"But seriously, you all have amazing genes. It's like a family of models." The demigod couldn't help but comment.

Rebekah was stunning.

The female original stuck her hand out. "I'm sure we're going to be great friends."

With a wide smile on her face, the raven haired beauty responded, "Definitely."

Rebekah was glad to hear her response. She didn't have many friends.

Nik rolled his eyes at the two. "Great. You're befriending another one of my siblings."

Percy and Rebekah turned to look at him. The hybrid noticed the glare from his sister.

"I understand that you're upset with me, Rebekah...so I'm going to let that go. Just this once." He said referring to his sister stabbing him with the dagger.

Percy crossed her arms. "You shoved the dagger in her first."

Nik rolled his eyes. He brought his attention back to his sister. "Brought you a little peace offering." He looked back at the doorway. "You can come in."

Stefan walked into the room.

"Stefan?" She asked softly.

Klaus strides to the Salvatore. "Now you remember," he compelled.

Stefan looked at Rebekah in a different way. "Rebekah." He seemed glad to see her. As if in a trance, he began walking towards her.

Klaus called out, "Stefan."

The vampire turned around. As he looked at the original, he remembered his friendship with him. They were like brothers.

Emotion was clear on his face. "I remember you." He spoke in a gentle way.

"We were friends."

Aww.

Klaus corrected him. "We are friends." The hybrid moved toward Stefan and placed his hand on Stefan's shoulder.

The Salvatore was lost in his thoughts.

Klaus redirected his focus on Rebekah. "And now the reason you're here. Gloria tells me you know how to contact the original witch."

"The original witch?" She questioned sounding annoyed by the question.

"What do you have that Gloria needs?"

The female original brought her hand up to her neck. When she didn't feel her necklace she looked down in panic.

Rebekah spoke, "Where's my necklace? What did you do with it? I never take it off!"

"I don't know. I didn't touch it."

The original was distressed. "We need to find it, Nik. I want it back."

The hybrid grew frustrated. "Tell me that's not what she needs, Rebekah!" Agitation and annoyance dripped into his voice

Rebekah moved past him, heading towards the coffin. The demigod sent him a look before helping Rebekah search for her necklace. Rebekah threw the coffin when she couldn't find the piece of jewelry.

Dang.

Thank you for reading!

This chapter is dedicated to @Pjo4life010206 and @gentletealflower for giving me the idea of the fight between Percy and a Greek monster (the minotaur).

Any thoughts or suggestions?
