When Night Comes

The One Cure Wonder

Edited:

Caroline was in the Gilbert house with us. Talking on the phone to Elena about some situation.

She angrily grabbed her coat and began to walk out.

"Anything I can do?" He asked her.

"Nope." She said popping the p.

I chuckled and sat on the couch holding my stomach.

Klaus looked over at me with a smile.

"How are you feeling?" He asked. I shrugged.

He sat down next to me and put a hand over my stomach and than placed his ear on it.

"Have you thought of anymore names?" He asked. I sighed and shook my head.

"What about Wyatt Kol Mikaelson." He said. My heart dropped and I looked at him.

I couldn't hold back my smile and I kissed his cheek.

"I love that name." I said. He chuckled. "What about a girl?"

He got up and paced, placing a hand on his chin as if he was thinking.

"How about Chloe. I've always adored that name." He said. I smiled and nodded.

We hear the door open and Tyler and Caroline walk in.

"Food?" I question. Tyler looks at me before tossing the bag of food over to me.

He held the sword in his hand and I pulled the sandwich out and began eating it.

"Well if it isn't a little orphan Lockwood." Klaus greeted. " come to show how laughably and potent you are against me"

"I'm just trying to help my friends find the cure. Found this in your attic." Tyler says uncovering the sword.

"And you think finding the sword brings you closer to the cure?"

" tell me, I was playing around with the handle on the ride over and I found this."

"What do you think this is?" Klaus asked.

"It's called a cryptex. I've seen the da Vinci code." She reasoned. "You turn the different sides to the different symbols to get the translation on the other side and with the magic of the Internet, Elena sent over these. So now all we have to do is Cryptex away. If you happen to want to help, we went wouldn't stop you."

"Right. Well, might I suggest using the magic of the Internet to purchase an Aramaic to English dictionary from your nearest retailer."

" what's Aramaic?"

"It's a dead language. It hasn't been used since, like, biblical times." Caroline said. I smirked and just continued to eat my sandwich.

"Qetsiyah's native tongue, I'm guessing. You know, even if you had the best dictionary in the world, it could take days to translate, perhaps weeks."

He sat next to me on the table.

"In has so-teen-too-sea-ma-eet." He said in Aramaic.

"What does that mean?" Caroline asked. I looked up from my sandwich.

"If only you spoke Aramaic." I said.

They gave each other an annoyed look.

"I speak, you translate, love." He said to me. I nodded and brought my chair over closer to the living room.

Klaus spoke the sentence and I felt the words translate in my head.

"Requires a powerful witch and a hunter in full bloom." I said.

"What are you doing?" Tyler asked us.

" I don't need to tell you my reasons. Caroline, bring my sword over here." He said.

She brings it over and he sets it on my lap.

"Read it, my love." He said. I only nodded and looked down at the words.

"Silas rests on the far side, the means of his distraction at hand." I read.

I look at Klaus and he looks at the computer than went to the sword.

"Turn the cryptex to the right." She did and he told her when to stop.

" The top of the hill reviews a key to a nautical map. Turn it to the left. Now turn it to the left. Wait, there's something else." He says slowly.

He speaks the language and I gasp lightly.

"What? What does it mean?" She asks frantically. I look at her with sad eyes.

"There's only one dose."

"We need to call Rebekah and tell her what's going on. Don't tell her about the one dose." Caroline demanded.

I held my hands up in surrender. Klaus chuckles and wraps a hand around my waist, bringing me into him.

"Hello?" Her voice said.

"Hey, it's Caroline. We have the transition of the tattoo. We're emailing you the picture of the map and instructions right now." She said.

"Got it. Thanks."

"Actually it was me." Klaus said.

"Nik? It was you?"

"Why so surprised little sister?" He joked.

"Because you never wanted any of us to take it. You want to destroy any chance of happiness for any of us." She spit.

He sighed and I gave him a sad look.

"I've changed my mind. I think that you should be able to live and die however you want." He said. He gave me a proud look and I playfully rolled my eyes.

"You too, Nik. Is Rory and the baby okay?" She asked.

"We're fine." I say.

"Oh and one thing before we go, little sister." Klaus starts. We give eachother knowing looks.

"There's only once dose of the cure so you better hurry and-" Tyler and Caroline rushed to end the call before Klaus could get any further.

I let out a chuckle and watch the surprise on their faces.

....

"Wake up, love. We're free." I hear Klaus say. I groan and stand up rubbing the sleep from my eyes.

When we walked out we saw a crying Caroline. I turned to Klaus.

"I'm gonna talk to her. I'll meet you at home." I said. He hesitated but nodded.

I walked over to her and sat down.

"I'm sorry, Care. I really am." I said. She sniffled and leaned my head on my shoulder.

"I love him, Ror." She cried. I sighed and patted her head.

"I know you do." I sighed. "Tell Klaus to stop. Tell him to spare Tyler." She demanded. I scoffed and stood up.

"You aren't in any place to demand me to save your lover boy." I spat walking away.
