''Because that is what Klaus does,'' Rebekah said as she and Maya walked into the bar where Marcel and his vampire's where discussing Klaus.

Realizing everyone was staring at them Rebekah tutted ''Don't mind us. We're fascinated by this story.''

''Hello, Tyler'' Amaya smirked as she made direct eye contact with the hybrid.

''Amaya'' He tensely greeted. ''Long time, no see''

''You two know each other,'' Rebekah asked eyes shifting between the both of them.

''Long story,'' Maya said as she and Tyler held intense eye contact.

''What Tyler was about to tell you is that my brother can use his baby's blood to sire more Hybrids. What you will all figure out is that vampires don't stand a chance.'' Diverting her eyes from the crowd Rebekah said ''So, Tyler, I assume you were trying to rally this lot into making sure the baby isn't born.''

Standing up Tyler said ''Yeah. You don't like it, go ahead and take your brother's side, but you know I'm right.''

Narrowing her eyes at him Maya said ''I believe you've mistaken our intentions.''

Stepping up Diego asked ''Alright. What's going on?''

Ignoring him Maya walked closer to Tyler until she was somewhat towering over her ''You're right, Tyler. Klaus is a crap enough individual as it is. The last thing he needs is to sire a superior species.'' Maya said before looking at Rebekah.

''Go on you can tell them.'' Rebekah looked at Marcel to continue.

''They're not here to fight us. They're here to help us.'' Marcel smirked.

''That's right, but first..'' Maya sped to Tyler and snapped his neck then took his previous spot on the chair leaving Rebekah to stand next to Marcel. ''Whew,'' She mumbled as she looked at the group. Some looked at her in fear, some in awe, and then some in anger and hatred. ''That is enough talk about harming that baby.''

''Klaus is the one we're putting a stop to'' Said Rebekah.

''What do you get, Josh,'' Marcel asked as his car pulled up.

''W-What do I got?'' He questioned in disbelief. ''Klaus wants some dagger from you.'' He said taking Rebekah aback. ''It's a test okay. He knows I'm working for you. I'm sure of it.'' The baby vamp nervously rambled.

''That bastard wants to dagger us again,'' Rebekah said glancing at Maya before looking at Marcel. Maya didn't have to worry about being daggered because when Hayley had given them the daggers that day she made sure to take hers and destroy them so Klaus could never try to use them on her again. ''He deserves everything he's gonna get'' Rebekah crossed her arms.

Maya had to admit that their plan to take down Klaus might work but she wasn't going to let it happen. Though she was still bitter she couldn't just leave the child fatherless. She was only in on it because she wanted revenge and this was the perfect opportunity to execute her plan.

Bending down to the car window Marcel said ''Relax. If he knew, he would have ripped your spine out through your nose by now.''

Josh looked at him in horror before sarcastically saying ''Oh, great. Now I fell totally at ease. What am I supposed to do?''

''Tell him you searched high and low but you couldn't find the dagger.'' Maya tutted in from the spot she was standing.

''Oh, I'm so dead.'' Maya shrugged at his words ''I mean you are the vampire voted most likely to die.'' She smiled sweetly at him making his look of horror get worse.

Shooting her a look Marcel said ''Then you tell him you saw I had it on me, that if he wants it, he'll have to come and get it, which won't be easy because I'm paranoid and I beefed up my posse.

As the jazz music played in the background Maya sat on one of the chairs in the compound wearing a black satin bodycon dress when Klaus suddenly walked into the compound.

''Hello, Nik'' She said and walked towards him seductively swaying her hips back and forth. Looking at her his eyes darkened in lust as his eye trailed over her body.

''What are you doing here Amaya'' He asked but she ignored his question as she simply walked around him like he was her prey.

''Oh, you know'' She shrugged and stopped behind him. ''Just the usual conspiring against you'' She said making Klaus's body turn to face hers but she was gone.

''Do you think this is gonna work?'' Rebekah asked when Maya came beside her.

Not wanting to ruin Rebekah's hope of putting down Klaus Maya smiled tightly and said ''We'll just have to see.''

Walking out of the shadows Marcel called out ''Klaus''

''You've been avoiding my calls,'' Klaus said suspiciously as his eyes never left Marcel.

''A little pissed off lately''

''Apologies for my behaviour can come later. You have something of mine. I want it back.''

Pulling the dagger out of his jacket and holding it in the air '', Sorry, but I can't do that.'' Marcel said then handed the dagger to Rebekah who had walked out of the shadows Maya along with her.

''What is this?'' Klaus angrily questioned once his eyes laid upon Rebekah and Amaya.

''Apologies for your behaviour? You don't apologize, Nik. You just act. I've had enough. We have had enough.'' Rebekah said when Klaus laid his eyes on her.

Walking towards them in amusement Klaus said ''Well, look at you, finally in possession of the one thing that can take you down. How does it feel.'' He asked Rebekah.

''Great'' Rebekah simply responded. Marcel whistled and an army of his vampires came out of their hiding spots.

''So this is it'' He asked amused by the whole situation. ''The evil bastard Klaus has gone too far, must be punished. And by his sibling and wife, nonetheless.'' Klaus maintained his amusement but Maya could tell that he was hurt. Good just what I wanted. She thought.

''And you, Marcel, is this your idea of a hit?'' He asked pointing to the crown while chuckling. ''I thought you better than this paltry excuse of a takedown." Marcel clenched his jaw in anger. ''You think you can subdue me with this!" He yelled.

''No, but I can with this.'' Marcel then whistled again making more vampires come out of hiding. They were now surrounded by vampires.

''Well... '' He said as all the vampires began surrounding them. ''Let's end this charade shall, we? Vampires of New Orleans do recall that I am an Original. A Hybrid. I cannot be killed. Eternity is a long time. How long do you think Marcel will stay in power? What if one of you lot were to release me, knowing I would be eternally in your debt. I would pity those of you who dared cross me. I can assure you your ends would be spectacular. To borrow a trick from an old friend. Whoever picks up this coin gets to live'' Klaus then dropped the coin on the floor.

''Now which of you magnificent bastards wants to join me?'' He asked raising his arms in the air.

''Anyone wants that coin, pledge allegiance to Klaus. Take it now. Go ahead the choice is yours.'' Marcel said stepping up. When nobody made a step to move Klaus opened his mouth to say something but Maya beat him to it.

''Okay, okay enough with the I'm the big bag Hybrid talk. Take him'' She signalled the vampires.

As they started to attack Klaus, Maya watched as he ripped out one's heart, and broke another's back. Then two vampires wrapped his hands in chains and started beating on him. He tried to fight back but they were too many of them. From the corner of her eyes, Maya could see Marcel and Rebekah smirking at the sight in front of them. One of the vampires started stabbing him in the shoulder. Another kicked him in his gut until Diego stepped forward and slashed him with a knife and punched him.

Maya knew that without her help the vampires may or may not have taken down Klaus. Either way locking up Klaus was not a part of her plan. So mumbling a little incantation under her breath she gave him more strength to defeat the vampires. Of course, she knew that Davina would sense it so she had a witch do a stronger spell to cover hers up.

As Rebekah started to walk toward Klaus with a smirk on her face it quickly went away when she saw Klaus look up with his Hybrid features on full display. Maya hated to admit it but he did look hot.

Those fortunate enough only got their neck snapped but the others received werewolf bites, their hearts ripped out or even their head knocked off their body.

"Marcel come and finish this!'' Klaus yelled in fury as he walked towards the middle of the compound.

But as Marcel went running forward Rebekah pulled him back and yelled ''No'' Maya narrowed her eyes at them from the chair she was sitting on. ''Take the coin'' She said in a panicked voice.

''What?'' He asked her in disbelief and confusion.

''He won't stop until everyone is dead, he will kill you, too.'' Looking at her brother fighting off the vampires she said ''End this pick up the coin.''

''Enough!'' Marcel yelled making Klaus stop in his actions. He then walked towards the coin and picked it up.

''Well, well, well,'' Klaus walked towards Marcel a slight smirk on his face. ''The great Marcel, self-proclaimed king of New Orleans, bowing before me."

''There'' He threw the coin to Klaus's feet. ''I hereby pledge my allegiance to you. You have the keys to my kingdom. It's yours.'' Marcel said in a defeated tone earning a smirk from Klaus as he tried to hold back his tears. Part of Maya felt guilty for what she had just done. She practically raised Marcel with Klaus. But she couldn't let guilt come in the way of breaking Klaus's heart as he broke hers so she ignored the guilt and acted like she wasn't the reason Klaus was able to defeat those vampires.

Klaus's eyes drifted to Amaya's in confusion and curiosity about why she would help but she simply winked at him before walking out of the compound knowing Klaus was going to follow her.

''Leaving so soon'' Amaya asked as she walked into Tyler's hotel room making his head snap to her. His eyes widened as he took in her appearance before they darkened in lust.

''What are you doing here Amaya'' He asked as they both held intense eye contact.

Ignoring her question Maya walked closer to Tyler until he was towering over her. ''You know...'' She trailed off ''A little birdie told me that you and Caroline broke up.''

''Oh yeah? And who told you that''

''Someone'' She said her fingers tracing patterns on his chest until he grabbed her hand holding it to his chest. Standing on her toes she whispered seductively in Tyler's ear ''Do you not want me anymore Tyler. Because I remember how badly you wanted me in the Appalachian mountains'' And that was all it took for Tyler to lose all control he had.

He roughly pushed her against the wall of his hotel room and smashed their lips together. He then continued to unzip the back of her dress leaving her in black lingerie. She moaned in pleasure as he started kissing down her neck leaving a trail of hickeys that would soon heal. While they continued to make out Maya ripped Tyler's shirt off his body leaving him shirtless.

The dark-haired brunette used her vampire speed to throw Tyler on the bed before climbing on top of him attaching their lips again.

As Tyler trailed kisses on her neck, she glanced out the window and saw Klaus standing outside with tears rolling down his face. She internally smirked. This was exactly what she wanted. Her plan had worked after all.
