I met Mikael for the first time when Damon dragged me to the Salvatore house. Elena was sitting on the couch awkwardly with Rebecca across from Klaus. Stefan looked at her but couldn't meet her eyes. "So this is the witch." Mikael said snidely "You don't look like much." "Be grateful. I don't have a blade in my hand. I could slice your throat before either baby vamp could touch me." I said back Rebecca stared wide eyed. Mikael looked like he wanted to get angry but the look in my eyes must have given him pause. I'm not afraid. I'm not like his children. I will defend myself even if it means I have to kill. "You are going to help them convince Klaus that I am dead and lure him back to Mystic Falls." Mikael said as if I had no choice "I refuse. I told Damon this was an idiotic plan and I stand by that. If you want Klaus to kill you be my guest. I won't give him a reason to come for my head." I said Mikael sped towards me to grab my throat. I simply flung my hand out. Mikael was sent flying. I calmly stood and lit a fire ball in my hand. "I hear that being burned alive is an excruciating experience. Would you like to be my Guinea pig so I can find out if that rumor is true?" I said coldly Rebecca looked like her eyes were just short of popping out her head along with everyone else. Mikael look apoplectic. He stood up slowly. "I don't care if you are the original big bad. I merely came to see what Damon wanted from me. My curiosity has been satisfied. You were once the worst of the worst, Mikael. I have no fear of you because I can kill you at my own leisure." I said confidently "I am immortal." Mikael snarled "Not without your head. Not without your heart. Not without blood. There is no such thing as an immortal. It is the one thing Mother Nature made sure of. Now I have things to do and a Homecoming to prepare for. Care will simply bite my head off if I don't show and I still need a dress." I said and headed for the door Mikael learned his lesson and let me leave. Once I was in the car and half way to the Grill, I called Klaus. "Well well what is my favorite Gilbert calling me for?" Klaus said as he answered "I'm calling to warn you because the next phone call you get is not going to be a good one. Mikael is here in Mystic Falls and trying to lure you back here. They've got Rebecca conflicted. She's knows about your mom's death but I believe I've calmed her down enough that she can see sense. I think she's hoping you'll rescue her at this point." I said as I pulled over on the side of the road Klaus had gone silent. "Why are you warning me when obviously everyone else wants me dead?" He asked "Because I've been where you are, Klaus. I still am. You at least have your family to love you if you play your cards right. My so called family wants to use me as a weapon for their own plans. Everyone needs somebody Klaus. I can't save myself but maybe I can save you." I said solemnly and then gave a sad chuckle "Think of it as good karma for the next life because this one is bound to kill me sooner rather than later." Klaus had gone silent again before changing the subject. "Have you met him?" He asked "Yea. He doesn't like me though I did get to throw him into a wall and nearly set him on fire. I'll send you the video if you wish. Good luck, Klaus." I said after sending the video as Klaus began laughing I had three days until homecoming and I was getting worried about finding something to wear. The following day though a large box was at the door with my name on it. I gasped at what was inside.
