I felt my heart hurt as he said those words, I didn’t want him dead. I never want him dead buy if I didn’t do as he asked, it might seem like a way of me saying that I want him dead.
“Alright then, I’ll do it but let me assure you that I didn’t want to do it at all, ” I said as I reached with my hands shaking at the center of his body, his heart.
As I touched it, he suddenly stopped moving and I paused, not knowing what to do next.
“Klaus? Klaus?” I called him to be sure if he was just staying stiff for me or if it was the hand in the chest that made him suddenly stop moving but I didn’t get any response from him.
I reached for his heart and it wasn’t beating at all anymore and I suddenly became scared.
No, please, no, let nothing happen to him please.
I reached for the chain at his legs and tried to see if I could break it but it was hard to break and my chest was hurting me the more I stood by him and watch him bleed out.
Ignoring the sharp pain in my chest, I used my power and broke the chains apart as that was the only way to see if that was what was holding him to act lifeless but he fell to the floor obviously unconscious.
My chest kept on hurting me but I ignored it as all I kept on thinking about was how I told Klaus that j didn’t what to touch his heart, how I tried to warn him
“Klaus, Klaus please wake up. Please…” I pleaded with him, tears falling off my face as I kept on trying to hear the sound of his heart beat.
I reached for his legs but he was still not breathing and moving.
I heard the sounds of footsteps as they came and I immediately knew who it was before they showed up.
Emma and Brook!
As they approached, I immediately grabbed the little insect which I had brought out from Klaus’ heart and shove it into a corner of the room as I didn’t want them to see that I finally brought it out
Especially Emma, I didn’t want her to know that I knew what she was using against Klaus to sip him from healing.
“Well well well, what have we got here,” Brook said as soon as he walked in and looked around the room.
I knew that the situation was a bit suspicious as I stood in front of Klaus with his blood on my hands and on my body but surely they knew better than to accuse me of trying to harm him, don’t they?
Why would I?
“Klaus is not breathing, please help me Brook, ” I said, reaching for him.
Emma smickered and looked at me before turning to face Brook who also burst into laughter at the sight of me.
“You look so pathetic right now standing in front of the dead body of someone you killed and asking for our help,” Emma mocked.
I knew that she wasn’t going to try and help me in any way at all but the words that came out of her mouth hurt me badly especially as she knows that I would never want to harm Klaus.
“Stop saying that! You know damn well that I would never hurt him! I didn’t mean for any of this to happen I only wanted to save him from the torture you guys out him through. Besides, he’s not dead, I know he isn’t.”
” That’s sweet of you to continue to think that you can decieve yourself as well as us. Rain, admit it, you wanted to kill him all along. You suddenly grew hungry for blood and saw him here, that’s why you harmed him. Don’t worry we understand, ” Emma said, laughing at me.
What was she saying?!
I felt the tears fall off my eyes again and to this time, I didn’t try to stop it as it suddenly occured to me that Klaus might actually be dead.
“Please.. please Brook. Save him please, you know I would never want to hurt Klaus, he’s my.. ”
” Yes, Rain. I know what you’re about to say. He’s your brother that’s why you would never hurt him right? But what if you were blinded by anger? Afterall you were mad at Rex for not showing up even after he promised to come. Maybe you wanted to pour out your anger on someone but it suddenly became clear to you that it was your brother you had harmed and not someone else.”
I stared at him in shock as he said those words to me. How dare he try to gaslight me into thinking that I actually harmed Klaus by my own free will?! He knows more than anyone why I can’t hurt anybody as of the moment.
“What do you mean? I can’t harm him.. he.. ”
“You can’t harm him because he’s your brother? Try another excuse, Rain, we’ve heard that already, “Emma interrupted me, Rolling her eyes and laughing.
” No, silly! You know it more than I do. You told me yourself didn’t you? I can’t harm anyone because I get a sharp pain in my heart anytime I try to!”
I was sobbing uncontrollably now but I didn’t want to give in to them, at least not now.
I looked up at Emma and Brook, expecting them to say something after I had mentioned the fact that I can’t harm anyone but they both ignored me and kept on laughing to themselves.
“His lips are blue and his eyes are white. He’s obviously not breathing so he’s definitely dead,” Brook said, staring at Klaus closely.
” You killed your brother, Rain, remember this,” Emma said laughing.
I sobbed harder especially as they didn’t want to believe the fact that I had nothing to do with his death.
“I didn’t mean to please, I’m sorry. Please save him. Do something please! Bring him back, help me!” I pleaded with them but they kept on laughing at me and pointing at my hands.
“Why should I save him?”
“Exactly! What are we going to do with him if we save him? He wasn’t useful to us anyways so why should we save him? You helped us by killing him as he was only a liability to us, so thank you,” Emma said as she looked down at Klaus’ body smiling.
I glanced down at my body and I was covered up in Klaus’ blood, it made me suck so bad that I suddenly wanted to throw up and shake my body away but there was nothing coming out and I was still in shock staring at his body.
I suddenly shivered in fear as I realized that he was actually dead. Klaus was gone and it was all because of me! It was my fault!
I heard the sound of another footsteps coming and I rolled my eyes at the fact that they are all suddenly drawn to this place as though they were called.
The door opened and a curious Alaric peeped his head in and his eyes widen in shock as the sight before him and I could tell by the look of his face also that he probably thought the same as Emma and Brook; that I killed Klaus all just because his blood was all over my body.
“What happened here?” He asked , looking around.
“Guess what? Your dear friend here just murdered her brother, “Emma said , smiling at him but I was too focused on the fact that I was feeling weak and I was feeling like throwing up.
I was feeling light headed and I couldn’t lift myself up.
“No way. I don’t think that’s… ”
“Just have a look at your friend’s state. Go, take her to her room and take care of her. She looks horrible,” Brook said as he watched Alaric move towards me and pull me up.
As Alaric pulled me up from the ground and tried to carry me out of the room, I heard Emma laughing and murmuring to Brook, though loud enough for me to be able to hear it.
“Guess she’s not that useless afterall seeing as she helped us to get rid of Klaus. We might consider her as useful.”
I couldn’t open my mouth to say a word against her as Alaric carried me out of the room and I was weak.
We got to my room and he opened the door, placing me on the bed.
“Emma would order that they bring new dresses for you to wear. What happened? I couldn’t hear Klaus heartbeat again. What did you do to him?”
My lips quivered.
” Nothing. I mean it. I only opened his chest that’s all,” I managed to utter.
” I’m really sorry for your loss. I brought blood for you so you’ll regain your strength back. You know you have to be strong for your kids. Klaus wasn’t the only family member that you have.”
Really!! I just knew him.
He had been looking for me for years.
It took me centuries to know about us.
