The Five Part One
The next day, Klaus and Kiara sat at the bar in the Mystic Grill, sipping on bourbon.
Kiara was wearing a top with a brown leather jacket, a jean and some boots.
The siphon girl letting out a laugh as Klaus whispered sweet nothings in her ear. Kiara nudged the Original as she noticed Rebekah walk into the Grill, the female Original watched as she walked over to Matt who stood working at the bar.
"What's that?" Matt questioned as the Mikaelson placed a set of car keys on the counter top.
"The key to your new car. It's parked outside, paid for, insured, everything but a big red bow." Rebekah smiled.
" If that's your idea of an apology, you should probably give it to Elena. She's the one that you killed." Matt said as he walked away.
"You shouldn't try that hard to apologize to that stupid mortal." She heard a voice said, turning Rebekah's attention as Matt was walking away from them, a scowl formed on Rebekah's lips.
"Last I heard you were leaving town, forever. Taking one of my best friends with you." Rebekah snapped back, flashing the Parker girl a quick smile before her face turned sour again as she face her friends.
"Well I was. But then I thought to myself how can I when my sister, clearly so desperate for love and affection, is left here bribing the help." Klaus stated, shrugging his shoulders as he pulled Kiara, nearing his sister.
"We decide to wait a little to go to New Orleans well until I'll graduate my college." Kiara informed.
"What do you want Nik? I thought I was dead to you." Rebekah asked her brother.
"Things change Rebekah. I've stumbled upon something I think might be of interest to you." Klaus told his sister with a smile.
"Doubt that." Rebekah scoffed.
"No? Well, what if I told you the brotherhood of The Five still existed." Klaus spoke.
"What?" Rebekah asked.
"It's true, Rebekah."Kiara says, nodding.
"You see, and like that bygones. Come on love, work to do." Klaus instructed.
"We don't have anything to do. There is no we. I don't care about The Five and I don't care about you." Rebekah replied.
"As you wish." Klaus responded, before walking away, with Kiara in tow.
Later on, at the Mikaelson Mansion, Klaus opened a door. In the room, Connor was chained up to a piece of wood. He walked in and stands next to the hostage.
Klaus said "Looks like I'll have to beef up the hybrid security detail."
" I was gonna take him, but I figured you went through such trouble to truss him up in your red room of pain." Stefan stated with a shrug, gesturing to Connor.
"It's from the Inquisition. I thought it was a nice touch."Klaus explained.
Kiara walked into the room, smirking at Connor.
"So what did you get out of him?"Kiara asked.
"Not enough. He's mum about the Council fire and he's not saying anything about this greater evil we're all supposed to be shivering over."Klaus said.
"What brings you snooping?" Kiara asked Stefan.
"Well, I can't say it in front of him. As I'm sure you've figured out, our friend here can't be compelled." Stefan responded.
Klaus says, looking at Connor "You're full of mysteries, aren't you?"
"I told you, I don't know anything." Connor told him.
"Well I happen to know plenty." Klaus says.
Klaus and Kiara walked out of the room and gestured Stefan to follow them.
"Shall we?" Klaus asked.
Stefan stared at Connor for a few more seconds and followed Klaus and Kiara.
Klaus shuts the doors to Connor's prison room and turns to Stefan and asked "So, what's with the home invasion?"
"So, what's with the home invasion?"Klaus asked as his hand curled around Kiara's waist.
" Damon said you knew something about this guy. Now, I should have figured out that you were up to something when you healed Elena from the werewolf poison without asking for anything in return."Stefan says, crossing his arms over his chest.
"I was feeling benevolent." Klaus shrugged in reply, an innocent smile played on his face.
"You're never benevolent. Not to anyone who isn't Kiara." Stefan retorted.
"What jealous, Stefan? O know how close you two were in the twenties..." Kiara teased the vampire.
"Who is this guy? What's the Five?" The young vampire questioned relentlessly, cutting off the siphon girl's teasing.
"So many questions."Klaus commented.
"It's a good thing I have nothing to do today, except get answers out of you." Stefan replied with a strained smile as he sat down.
"Fine. You might actually be useful in persuading my sister to cooperate. Kiara don't want to get involved."Klaus relented.
"I'm telling you just to leave her alone, Nik. If she wants no part in it, you can't force her."Kiara says pointedly as she sits down on a chair.
Klaus took a seat on the chair besides Kiara's, his hand going to her left thigh crossed over her right leg.
Klaus counted "Yes, well, that is no longer an option. "
"So, the brotherhood of the Five was a group of highly skilled vampire hunters. We crossed paths with them in the 12th century Italy. My siblings and I had followed the Normans as they conquered the South. Feeding, turning people as we went. But with the bloodshed came exposure. Rebekah, in particular, grew close with one of them."Klaus dives off into the story, his eyes glistening in reminiscence.
"So these hunters have been around for nine hundred years?" Stefan pressed.
Klaus shrugged "Apparently. Though our friend in the other room is the first I've seen since then. Kind of makes you wonder what they've been up to all these years."
Kiara remarked, sipping on her milkshake "Five down to one. Not well, it seems."
Stefan queried "And Rebekah had a thing with one of them?"
Klaus corrected "Oh, she didn't just have a thing. She fell in love with him. He told her all his secrets.""
Stefan huffed " And what's that?"
Klaus demanded "Get Rebekah over here. She's being stubborn and hateful."
"Wonder why?"Kiara remarked sarcastically.
Klaus shoots Kiara a look, only getting ignored in response. He rises to his feet and said " I need to make peace with her. I want her to give me some very important information about the hunter which she won't do, unless she believes we've made up."
Kiara scoffed "Brother of the year."
Klaus amended for Kiara's sake as he didn't want her angry with him "Naturally the former is far more important."
"And what's in it for me?" Stefan asked, getting to his feet and glancing back and forth between Kiara and Klaus, shocked at how the Original hybrid seemed to give in to the siphon.
Klaus says " Just get her here and I'll tell you. Oh, and Stefan, trust me when I say this; that hunter in there holds the answer to all your prayers."
