Immortal Dilemmas

There wasn't any time to spare, their sister had to be warned about what had been tried to be passed for a law. The elections for the minister of magic had been running slowly, everyone was hesitant to show trust and faith in the system that was once so corrupt. The one candidate that the family is hoping to win is Kingsley Shacklebolt, a comrade in arms that had a sense of what was right. They didn't have to worry about him falling into someone's pockets. He's in the lead due to the family openly supporting him. However, there was one candidate that they were absolutely sure needed to be thrown into Azkaban, Perseus Parkinson. The Parkinson family had been allied with the Malfoy family for generations and it was widely known. The only reason that he was not a convicted death eater was that he wasn't deemed worthy enough to be one. Though his blood was pure, his core was weak, abilities near a squib. Pansy was lucky to have been deemed enough magic to enter Hogwarts. The man spouted off nonsense about him being a representative of keeping traditions alive. What was wrong was that he was trying to pass a law stating that it was required for witches and wizards, 16 and older, to be entered into a courtship that promised marriage or a marriage contract. To 'ensure' that there would be enough children to start the next generation and make up for all the lives lost in the last two wars, if a wizard or witch does not already have a spouse then the ministry will try to match them up. The family knew that the law was total bullshit. Thankfully, with Hailey being mated and married the law didn't affect her. But it did come out to the public that their "Chosen One" was wedded and they demanded answers. The family remembered with a scowl what brought them to having to warn their darling lioness.

 ~Flashback~

 The wizarding courtroom was usually a place of law and Order, but the scene unfolding was just plainly a screaming match. Kingsley was on one side with the order behind him along with the majority of the Wizengamot. Behind in parallel to him was a pug-faced man who could be no one else but Perseus Parkinson. Both were in the required, maroon-sanctioned robes of the court. Kingsley was keeping his head and showing a cool and calm face as one would expect with a parent scolding their child. Parkinson was the child, red in the face while making his point heard all over Britain. Behind him were what was remaining of the "dark faction", most were widowers or eldest sons that inherited the titles of the lord of their family through their Death Eater family member. Many of the young on this side were hesitant to be there but had no clue where else to go, they felt they would just be shunned if they turned to the 'light' but if they stayed in the 'dark', they would be playing a losing game. 

 "Magic must be preserved! There are limited solutions to how we can solve our dwindling population. It must be done every one of magic must marry and conceive to bring along the next generation. We have to make up for all that was lost from the wars!"

 "Forcing people to go along with your old ways is no way to solve that! People should have the choice of deciding who they are to marry and not be forced to make such decisions because it is required! We just survived a war for Merlin's sake, you will not force your ideals onto the people of Magical Britain!"

 "My beliefs aside there is not much else that can be done to solve the dwindling numbers of our community. Family lines are going to go dead if not done. Magic that comes from witches or wizards like Hailey Potter must be passed on to ensure our future!"

 "I advise you to keep our savior out of this! She has done enough for us, and we cannot expect her to do more! Especially to take part in such a farce of law!"

"Who else but she can lead us, who else but her can help make future generations? Her parents were exceptional in power, they got married and produced an heir of the highest caliber! Imagine what children she could produce with the right wizard! That child then can ensure that magic lives on!" 

 "I'm afraid~", a goblin, Griphook, that represented Gringotts had piped up. Might as well tell the fool why even if the law were to get miraculously passed, there was no chance they would be able to pair off Hailey Potter. "Even If you were to pass that 'law' Miss Potter would not fall into that jurisdiction."

 "Make your reason known! Why would she not?!", this can't happen Lucius was willing to overlook all the money that Parkinson owed him if he was able to become Minister or at least get the law passed. If he can't, he could wish his already crumbling estate goodbye. The Parkinsons owe the Malfoys more money than they have in their vaults, if he didn't win the election or get the law passed his family will have to give up their titles and vaults. Even then it wouldn't be enough to cover everything, and the Parkinson family would become magic-bound servants to pay off whatever was left. Griphook sneered at the desperation that the wizard was oozing, hysteria was also making itself known.

"To simply put, Hailey Potter is no longer eligible to become a bride to anyone. She has been bonded and mated for quite a few months now. Strange how you wizards only care for her condition and status when she could be used in your favor.", a string of gasps was let out through the courtroom. Mated?! But mating would imply that their savior had bonded with a creature! Mostly out of surprise from the 'light' side. Though there were a few young lords distressed about losing a chance with Lady Potter.

 "How dare you speak such lies! A respectable witch would never stoop so low as to 'mate'-", this was possibly worse than he could imagine. The reason why the 'dark' section was so against mating was that a mating bond meant that even if one-half of the pair was killed the other half would never want anyone else. They would only ever want their 'mate'. There was no way of conning a respectable witch to marry a proper wizard after killing off her 'mate'. The same as luring back a proper wizard to marry a respectable witch. If the mating case is true, he was so screwed. No, he cannot accept this. He was about to voice as such but was cut off by his competitor.

 "TAKE CARE OF HOW YOU SPEAK!! Mating has been an honored ritual for creatures that have for too long been seen as nothing of importance by like-minded individuals such as yourself! In case you are suffering from some sort of obliviating spell, allow me to remind you of how the Dark Lord was able to pull so many 'dark' creatures into his clutches.", Kingsley was often disgusted by how his kind would treat a mating bond. To him you marry/bond/mate to whoever you loved, the dark section believed that marriage was simply a tool to be used to better your family who cares about what feelings happen between the pair as long as an heir can be produced to carry the line. It was also due to the constant fear of what they couldn't understand that made them orchestrate creatures. The creatures there to represent their kind turned from sneering at Parkinson to showing mildly impressed faces towards Kingsley.

 "He lured them with power, that's all those foul-", Parkinson did not get to finish as he had to duck a spell shot from the light section. Ginny Weasley had to rub her shoulder as her mother had smacked it but shared a silent high-five with her brothers. It caused Aurors to chuckle and not even attempt to look for the culprit and glare at the ones that tried to step forward to look. Parkinson sent a glare and waved them off. He looked pointedly at Kingsley to get on with it.

 "He promised them equality, he promised the creatures that they and their mates would never have to fear of being hunted, separated, or used! Our world did everything to oppress those poor creatures and that's exactly what caused them to go over to him. We constantly talk of hiding from muggles because of how they treated us for being different than them, for having abilities that they did not possess, and because we had different traditions than they did.", how dare this little upstart bring muggles into this and how dare he compare their ancestors' pain to that of some lowly creature!

"THEY BURNED US AT THE STAKE THOSE CREATURES SHOULD BE THANKFUL!!", people were sure that if there weren't wards to prevent outsiders from listening, Diagon Alley would be hearing the screaming match.

"THANKFUL FOR US DOING THE EXACT SAME THING AS TO WHAT THE MUGGLES DID TO US !??!", many gasps occurred again at the revelation.

 "WE SHOULD HAVE BANDED TOGETHER TO MAKE A BETTER WORLD BUT INSTEAD WE DID AS THE MUGGLES DID TO US PERHAPS EVEN WORSE. We gave them a glimmer of hope that we could all coexist peacefully after evading the muggles, only for us to stomp on it and give them a stack of laws to limit them. We need to change; we have stayed the same for far too long and if it doesn't, I fear that we will just be repeating the same miserable pattern."

 "Be that as it may a creature mating with our savior could have no possible fruitful outcome, tell us Goblin what is the status of the supposed mate of Hailey Potter?", even if she is mated what matters if the young Malfoy provides her an heir, though the heir will not be widely accepted as it will not be made from marriage vows. He just needs to know if the creature is a weak one, but knowing Potter there is no chance that the fates would deem a weakling worthy of her.

 " A vampire.", Griphook replied. You could hear a pin drop in the room from how quiet it became and all of a sudden movement came to a large boom.

 "VAMPIRE!!!", it was as if the courtroom had spoken as a unit. Yells, whispers, and murmurs were taking up the courtroom. It was becoming too much until Amelia Bones rose with her wand to her neck casting a sonorous spell.

 "ORDER, WE WILL HAVE ORDER", it started to quiet down then Amelia asked respectfully to the goblin which did earn her a respected look. "Master Teller, is there anything about the state of Hailey Potter that should be known to this court?", the court did not need to know that Miss Potter had moved to America most likely in alignment with her magic to find her mate, even if unknowingly.

 "As it is I have already delivered information that this court has no business of knowing Miss Potter has done enough for this world, how she spends her days is her business.", he said with a slight sneer towards the 'dark' fraction. He had no clue why wizards insisted to label things. Parkinson seemed to have snapped out of his daze and started demanding answers and swaying some to his side.

 "HOW ARE WE TO GAIN ANOTHER HERO IF OUR SAVIOR CAN NOT PRODUCE AN HEIR ??!!", some gaped at his audacity to try and use their savior, but a few sheep could not help but murmur agreement. The Weasley boys in attendance had a look of fury on their faces and Ginny looked ready to claw his eyes out. Kingsley went to calm the masses.

 "That is not an issue whatsoever-", he was interrupted by one of the neutral lords.

 "I am sorry Kingsley, but it does pose a problem. What will become of the Potter and Black titles? Surely Miss Potter will want to hand them down one day? She often spoke of having a family and being with a vampire leaves very little chance of that happening. I even dare say that it's not even allowed.", he had the sense to look bothered by what he was saying but it was true, it was currently against the law to produce a halfling. And those that were produced were mistreated, it was no way to treat the offspring of their hero. Kingsley didn't waste time making a case. Hailey needed the law to be passed, those boys are everything to her.

 "Not if we change the laws! Who are we to say that a woman must rid herself of her child just because we fear the unknown? If we banish those laws, we can ensure that Miss Potter has at least one less thing to worry about when concerning making her family. We owe her that much.", the members of the jury looked side to side with each other before Amelia Bones came to stand and with her a piece of parchment to say which laws will be instated. Before she could say anything there was a change that no one was expecting to come from the courtroom that day. Nearly every newly appointed Lord and Ladies had moved from the 'dark' section to the neutral, it seemed Kingsley's words encouraged some change. Widows were looking at the young nobles in betrayal, but they refused to budge, it was time for a change. Their fathers and mothers had paid the price for their ways in no way were they to try and follow the same path.

 "We, the Wizengamont, do declare that halflings no longer are a forbidden race so we say it so mote it be. We do declare that laws over all creatures will be reevaluated to ensure tranquility, so we say it so mote it be. We do declare that bonding and mating are on the equivalence of marriage, so we say it so mote it be.", the scene was that of utter tranquility as magic had registered it and let the room give off a faint white glow until Parkinson disrupted it by crashing the courtroom doors open. At that, the order had joined together each silently cheering for the victory. No one had noticed that a beetle had flown out of the courtroom, they wouldn't have a clue until the next morning.

 Arthur was eating breakfast with his family and enjoying the chatter going around. The children wanted to head to America to inform Hailey of the wonderful news but as he was drinking his coffee, he read the Prophet. He spurted the contents out to the side and his family looked up at him in surprise and then shock at his next words. "THAT BLOODY SKEETER, JUST WHO THE HELL DOES SHE THINK SHE IS?!!", he said in a rage, it was very rare to see the Weasley Patriarch this upset.

 "Arthur!", Molly was about to ask what in merlin was wrong when he turned the paper around for the whole family to see the headline.

" SAVIOUR OFF THE MARKET?", the men of the family looked at the paper with fury as the women decided to read it despite being engulfed in rage. ' You heard it here my faithful readers it would seem Lady Potter is no longer on the market; it would seem that she was not swept off her feet like any respectable lady, but she had instead eloped and with a creature no less! This just in Lady Potter has been deemed mated to not just any sort of creature, but a dark one! A vampire! What does this entail for the future of the Wizarding World? It would have been deemed that Lady Potter is not allowed to have children with her mate, however, the Wizengmont wouldn't dare go against Lady Potter. Sources say, "I for one think it's blasphemous, a respectable Lady should be wed to a wizard, not some creature!" Others, " Love is love, it does not matter who or what they are as long as both are consensual and hold love for each other there is nothing wrong with the relationship presented, we owe it to Lady Potter to let her live as she wants." The wizarding world will be split but what side is correct, read more to find out!" At the bottom of the page is what also got the family's vision to be tinted with blood, "Read more on Page 4 to know about the scandalous history of Lady Potter with Heir Malfoy", that bloody Skeeter!! Arthur was trembling with rage that it was decided that Percy would be the one to read that section as he was very begrudgingly the only levelheaded one in the room. He read out loud with venom lacing his words, it surprised his family to hear him so upset, but then again this was their honorary sister and daughter.

"Lord Malfoy has recently come out with a statement regarding the ordeal over Lady Potter's new marital status, "It is completely inappropriate as she and my son, Draco, were to be wed in this year's time. They had an official courtship during their last few years at Hogwarts, how else do you explain Draco's willingness to risk his own life to help her? Draco is, of course, refuting to hide his pain over her leaving him for some eternal creature.", does Lord Malfoy speak the truth, this reporter will find out, whatever it takes we shall know the true Lady Potter.", in his head, Percy had come up with at least seven different ways of how to rid the Malfoy family of their lord, how dare that foul upstart to speak such lies about their sister. Anyone with half a brain should know that there is absolutely no chance that Malfoy and Hailey could feel anything than friendship toward each other. And bloody Skeeter! What right does that woman have to display Hailey's business out to the public and try to paint her as some Scarlett woman?! This would not do, they had to move it was due time for a visit, they hadn't seen their family members in nearly two months. Perfect time to kill two birds with the stone, or something along those lines. The family started conversing over the next steps of what to do not knowing that there was an eavesdropping charm that was placed on Arthur by the one and only... Perseus Parkinson.

~End Flashback~

When the family arrived, they were met with growling and surprised yelps before the magicals of the house came down to calm the situation. Apparently, Hailey had decided to house some...hybrids? And they finally got to meet the man that had knocked up their precious Hailey. At this thought passing through the family's head, Stefan felt a chill go up his spine. He looked to his new brothers to see them all grinning in an understanding of what had to be done with Stefan. Hailey had a lot of brothers; it came with the territory to get the shovel talk.

"So... you're Stefan?", Bill had asked once all the men had managed to drag him into a parlor room, pretty easy since Hailey was so excited to see the girls and they all decided to take a quick shopping trip with some coaxing from Fleur and Rebecca it was almost scary. Bill, along with the other Weasley men were intimidating. Along with what he's heard from his wife, they were not people to trifle with, Bill worked with ancient, nearly unhealable curses. Charlie worked with Dragons and had a very large build. Percy reminded him somewhat of Elijah, but he knew while he could be made an ally would likely not hesitate in causing harm. The twins very much reminded him of his new older brother Kol, the manic gleam in their eyes worried him. He was hoping to get some sort of protection from Ron or Remus, but they were leaning on the back wall with their arms crossed, an amused grins plastered on their faces, along with Arthur, the brood's father. He was shocked when Billy got rid of his grim face and placed a smirk on. He put his arm around Stefan's shoulders and led him to the one couch in the room. "Listen, mate, I have a creature beloved as well. I know that you would never EVER try to hurt Hailey willingly. Right?", the rest of the brood followed Bill's example of leaving their tense stances.

"I would rather scarf down vervain in sunlight than ever try to hurt Hailey.", Stefan stated in a no-nonsense kind of tone. The family looked pleased with his answer. They knew that a creature bond was sacred and that giving a shovel talk to Stefan would be disrespectful, especially as he was a vampire.

"And we know that, listen Hailey is the most wonderful girl we know. And we are not the only ones to notice this. What we want you to understand is that where we're from she is highly sought after not only for her looks but also for her high standing, we need to know if you are willing to do whatever it takes to keep her happy with you. She would do the same. Even if it means some blood on your hands.", Stefan felt his vampire rage over his mate being lusted after and wanted to shred anybody who dared to want to use her.

"I am hers just as she is mine, anybody that tries to take her will know that. I have no regrets in having to get my hands dirty over someone who dared to try and do so.", he was barely keeping the growling and hissing from his voice. He was met with warm smiles, the brood parted away as their Father came to shake Stefan's hand.

"Welcome to the family, son.", a golden glow emitted from their hands similar to what he remembered happened when Hailey and Klaus made those vows. He felt warm and oddly giddy. His brothers had busted in, and he was surprised to see Elijah and Finn holding his sons who were fussing and trying to squirm toward him, despite being two months old and told that they would age like normal kids he still felt his boys were growing too fast.

"My look how big they've gotten! I can see Hailey here and there, especially in Cedar. But Caelan definitely takes after his father.", Stefan went to his brothers as the panicked look on their faces was growing. He took the boys, and they stopped fussing. They must have just wanted him as their mommy had been taken hostage by her sisters. Stefan looked around to notice that the family was looking at him handle the boys. They all looked mildly proud and silently awed at the adorable picture Stefan made. Some of the Hybrids had decided to peek in and Stefan gave them a small smile. Stefan took in how much his family has grown, for so long he had felt so lonely. His only family hated him and there was no way for him to create his own. Since Hailey, he has never felt so complete. Every time he thinks of how she had unknowingly brought peace to his life he fills with warmth. She and he had certainly created a large family.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Unfortunately, unwanted forces were brewing. Parkinson had been able to get a lock in where the Weasleys had portkeyed. He was not going to leave this foul country until Potter became wed to Draco! He had brought Lucius along to assure it. Lucius, as a lord had forced Draco to stay locked in Malfoy Manor to stop him from interfering, the brat should be thankful for their dedication to providing him with a worthy bride. Narcissa while reluctant, stayed to watch Draco to ensure he wouldn't try to pull anything. Potter should be thankful that a pureblooded family was willing to take her in despite her foul half-blood status. Her father was a sore point to many of the wizards in their faction, he was a highly sought-after pureblood. Even Parkinson's wife had sent him a marriage contract only for her and others as well to take a hit in their pride when he decided to court a mudblood. The memories this brought were certainly taking hits to his pride. All they needed to do was lay low and perhaps imperious Potter to leave that creature for a proper wizard, such as Draco. They were discussing what exactly they should do when they were approached by some muggle, how she noticed them is unknown as they had placed 'Notice Me Not' spells. She had pale skin and hair that made Parkinson believe that she would have done well in impersonating a Malfoy.

"I believe gentleman that we both have a similar goal. I cannot do my noble work with the witch you want here, and you wish to take her away, shall we talk more in private?", she piqued their interest. Esther smiled sinisterly, as soon as that freak of nature left, she would be free to carry out as nature intended.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

They were not the only unwanted visitors, but another made herself known. Stefan decided that the boys should get a little outing and it was always amusing to see how people reacted to his usual cool facade brother's break face when his sons decided to look at them. He was enjoying his time at the park with everyone, Hailey had texted him saying that they would head over as soon as possible, and Rebekka had gotten the boys some clothes that she wanted to do a miniature photoshoot since they were at the park. His brothers went to go pick up the girls and they headed towards a very open field park. He chuckled and looked over to his brother in laws having tummy time with the boys on a wool blanket that they brought. When he suddenly felt arms wrapped around his neck, he didn't smell Hailey or even hear her yet, he thrust himself away from the offending appendages to see Elena looking at him with an amused surprised look on her face. But it soon turned to confusion as Stefan glared at her and decided to walk away from her and more towards his family. She grabbed his wrist and was soon pushed away, "I think I've told you before Elena, stop acting like we're together and just stay away from me!". Soon her doe-like expression turned to a very familiar one, a smirk that only screamed bad intentions. He sighed in annoyance, "Katherine.", she just fluttered her eyes as she looked over at him with appreciating gazes. He felt creeped out but Katherine either didn't care or didn't notice.

"Finally ditched my good girl self, Stefan?", she said as she tried to interlock their arms but was once again pushed off, she looked at Stefan with a pout. He sighed and looked over to his in-laws who were looking on and noticed his uncomfortable stance. Ron pulled out his phone and silently shot a text to his sisters. He had been told stories about this woman; it was people like her that made his mother equally protective of her sons as she was of her daughters. Women who knew better but still decide to seduce (take advantage) a younger man and use him, despite him being naive and young. Katherine Pierce was that and so much worse as she was a vampire and controlled Stefan, who at the time was still fairly young. He and his brothers looked at each other and knew this could get messy so they put a few wards to drive the muggles away from the park along with a few silent wards to not draw attention. Katherine was too busy eating Stefan with her eyes to notice the humans leaving the park.

"I did and I'm already taken. I'm making sure to stay away from manipulative doppelgangers.", Katherine looked at Stefan with a longing look, but she pushed it down she needed him to spare some information about the Originals, last she heard from one of her hybrid spies (they gave her information to lure her back) they were in New Orleans. But it would be nice if Stefan wanted a little reward for such valuable information, he certainly had gotten more attractive. He bulked up quite a bit and had a new mature aura around him, but she couldn't help but notice something was off, but she brushed it off. What could he have done that she hadn't already seen?

"I'm not here to fight I just want to talk...but if you want, we could do a little something after.", she said in what was supposed to sound like a sultry voice but to Stefan, it was like nails against a chalkboard. She made another move to try and lean on him when she was suddenly pinned down to the ground. Stefan had gotten tired of her advances and his in-laws were moving to come help, hopefully, they got something strong enough to tie up a vampire. Katherine was surprised that Stefan was able to keep her pinned down despite being older than him. She then felt a searing pain, she looked up to see some redhead pointing a stick at her, and a rope was coming out of it, every time she tried to break it, it would just get tighter and tighter. She heard a car approaching and was ready to turn on the waterworks and scream only to be petrified at who came out. She saw the entire family of Originals leave the vehicle. Then she noticed HER. A girl that had a beauty so unearthly that screamed she wasn't human, Katherine felt fury and jealousy grip her heart as the black-haired beauty ran to HER Stefan and started coddling him, she felt despair as she noticed Stefan melt in her touch with some rugrats with him. What the hell was going on?!

Niklaus looked down at Katherine as his brothers took hold of her, he looked to Stefan who was holding Hailey close to him along with the boys. Katerina had much to answer for, escaping him was already punishable by death. But to have used her powers to take advantage of his then-human brother was disgusting. He felt immense anger as she was throwing glares at his sister-in-law, they already had to deal with Elena. She was only safe because she was useful, but Katherine was of absolutely no use and therefore totally disposable. He and his brothers took satisfaction as Katerina finally had a look of horror done her face. His hybrids did good work acting as double agents. He gripped her face painfully and spoke with his voice laced with venom, "Hello Katerina, we have a lot to catch up on."

Chapter 16

Immortal Dilemmas

The first feeling that came to him once he awoke, other than his hunger, was anger. The first thing he actually had consciousness of hearing in nine hundred years was his brothers voice. He had sped towards his brother once he made an unceremonious fall from his coffin but was stopped when he started registering a very familiar scent. A scent he had thought was taken away by his brother long ago, a scent so oaky and of grounded herbs. Sage, he was about to speak but was cutoff when his brother decided to shove some sort of bag into his mouth. His initial reaction is to bite down as he did he was finally fed part of him was disgusted by how easily sated his vampire was because of blood. But the other part was happy to get rid of the constant burn and ache he had been feeling. He drained the bag of its contents, his throat was still burning, and he was about to speak but once again it seemed as his younger brother was determined to force feed him. It seemed that their sister was also force feeding their other brothers while his Sage looked on.

He was sat down on a strange leather bound couch and looked up expecting to see the usual superior smirk that rested on Klaus’s face. He was mildly surprised to see Klaus look upon them with a look of concern and cautiousness. From his mother’s constant muttering of how his siblings were monsters and becoming worse he expected Klaus to have turned his humanity off permanently. Klaus leaned down to examine his eldest brother which caused Finn to question what Klaus was looking for. “Well, big brother, I’m just trying to estimate how many more bags I’ll have to feed you in order for your skin to regain color.”, out of instinct Finn looked down to his hand and Klaus was correct. Finn barely had any color to his flesh. Nine hundred years without any nourishment, it was definitely going to take a while for Finn to be considered a healthy vampire. He looked back up back to Klaus with a glare to snap at him, to berate him, to insult him, and generally just say anything to get back at his brother for confinement of the last millennia. But he stopped before he could even start as his brother had a look of remorse on his face while examining his form, an emotion Finn had been sure that he would only ever see from his brother when he was human.

What in the world? His mother had stated that his brother had become the ultimate monster. He had heard from her that Niklaus had broken the bindings on him. But instead of being more monstrous if anything this is the most human he had ever seen his brother since their early years of vampirism. He looked over his brother questionably as if Klaus was a puzzle that needed solving. Klaus ignored the looks and focused more on feeding his brother, Finn was so lost in thought that he just drank whatever Klaus was giving him. Klaus knew in Rebekah’s eyes that he would need to talk to Elijah first but Finn was the first of his brothers and they had a very strained relationship.

He had talked to Sage beforehand and asked her, for the sake of his brother, if she could stay at the mansion for however long Finn would need. She of course agreed, but she had questioned Klaus, she never got to really know Klaus other than what Finn would tell her. Why now, why did Klaus decide to awaken his brother, her love, after nine hundred years? Why had he done so in the first place? From that she finally got both sides of the story. How after Klaus had found out that he felt that he wasn’t true brother, just the bastard that his siblings had to put up with for all eternity, he felt he needed control in order to not lose the only family he could have. How, Finn spoke of their family being abominations made him feel as if he was trying to abandon them. He couldn’t bear the thought of his eldest brother, any of his siblings, trying to find a way to end things.

He went about it wrong he knew that but Sage know knew. She knew that while he was trying to undo the curse to unlock what was wrongly taken away, he also did it in order to be strong enough to fend off Mikael. She asked why was he so being so open with her and why wasn’t he discussing this with his sister or pet Salvatore. “Because you are the most important person in the world to my brother. And you deserve to know you in-laws a bit better. My brother had grieved the loss of our humanity but with you it seemed that you were able to lift that burden. If anyone has any say in what should occur with Finn you should have some input as well. My sister didn’t have a strong bond with Finn so I’m afraid the only thing she knew was his love life. And I’m afraid my little brother, Stefan doesn’t exactly have the best relations with his own brother, but who could blame him.”, he ended with a smirk but Sage could see the anxiety rising in the hybrids eyes. With that she agreed that the first conversation he would need to have would have to be with Finn.

She came over to them and shared a tentative smile with Klaus. Finn looked shocked at how they were interacting. She gave Finn a kiss and hand squeeze. She knew if she didn’t coax him, he would never just talk with Klaus. She knew how important family was to Finn, if she could help she will. “Finn, I’m so happy to see you.”, Finn was elated to feel Sage with him. But his mother…why would she lie and say that Klaus had murdered Sage. She saw that he was in thought but they needed this conversation now, he needed to know. “Finn, we need to get you back to full health. But most importantly…you have a conversation with your brother that is long overdue.”, he looked shocked that she would say so. But he knew Sage was right and with her being alive did raise questions. If his mother had been willing to lie about Sage what else could she have lied about?

She left them to have some sense of privacy. He wordlessly gave his brother modern clothing to change into, perks to being a vampire changing doesn’t take long. Klaus had pulled a dining room chair for sit in and gestured for him to sit down. He did and noticed his brother had a smaller version of shears in his hand along with some sort of metal tool in his hand. “What is this for Niklaus?”, he couldn’t help but ask.

“I’m not sure if you’ve noticed Finn but it’s no longer common for men to have hair at this length.”, he had noticed Klaus’s hair being short. Such a strange thing to see. But they were to be talking why was his brother offering to cut his hair? He continued to stay still, might as well get it done with.

“I’m sorry…for everything. I’m not sure how I’ll ever make it up to you but I want you to know that.”, his brother apologizing? Something was amiss, since them turning Klaus had apologized very rarely. At most he would only see he did wrong two times before Finn had been daggered, he has no clue if Klaus even apologizes anymore. He could hear their siblings stopping in their tracks at Niklaus’s words.

“You’ll have to be more precise Niklaus. There are many grievances between us.”, he couldn’t help but say so in a clipped tone. He was again shocked when Niklaus had flinched at his response. That was not…Niklaus had only ever done so when they were human…and only when he was with father. What had happened to his brother? He could hear his siblings and Sage waiting for them at the other end of the grand house.

“I’m sorry that you had to put up with me for a century. I’m sorry that I had you daggered for nine centuries. I’m sorry that I’ve been such a terrible brother to you that you would readily believe that I had murdered the one person you wanted to live for. I’m sorry that you have me, a bastard, for a brother.”, Klaus had did it. He finally said to his eldest brother his biggest concern. He could feel his eyes getting misty but he blinked it away before his brother could see him in such a state. When he found out he was a result of his mother’s affair his reaction to everything was in fear. What if his siblings were to decide that as a bastard he had no right to call them his brothers and sister. He was afraid he would be abandoned and left alone.

“Niklaus! I may be furious at you for having me locked away for centuries but I would never be angry with you for having a different father. We were raised together, we played together, but it would seem that was out of the situation when I had dared disobeyed you!”, he never thought that Nik would have these thoughts. He always seemed so carefree and headstrong. Never for a moment did he believe that Niklaus was not his brother. He had already lost their youngest brother, he didn’t want to lose another over petty thoughts. But it still hadn’t excused that just because he felt differently on their curse that Klaus could just lock him away. He held his brother’s gaze when he looked up to meet them with a look of…disbelief? He was so caught up in their conversation he and Klaus didn’t take in that their siblings had stopped talking to listen in.

“You think I had you daggered for nine hundred years because you disobeyed me?! Finn, you had constantly gone on about us being abominations, about our family being monsters. I saw, I saw that everyday you dreaded still being alive. With Sage you got better. But then she disappeared, it was like we were starting to just get you back and then we started to lose you again. And I couldn’t bear it any longer! We already had lost so much family. Henrik, I still cry every year and reminisce him in the season of his death. Mother, her death will forever be on my head she was supposed to protect us but she never batted an eye when father raised a hand or whip to any of us. Then she sealed away what was essentially apart of my soul, Finn! And Mikael, I understand his need to kill me! I am the bastard of his wife that he was forced to raise! But the man who raised us, the man we called father he hunted us. We lost so much Finn, we couldn’t lose you as well, no matter how much you hate me, please don’t abandon them, please don’t try to abandon our family again.”, Klaus couldn’t hold back his tears any longer, he tried to take in shacky breaths to calm himself. While Finn got lost in thought, had his pain really been that visible and had it really hurt his siblings to such an extent. Niklaus may be a manipulative person but he would never make himself display that he was vulnerable. It was as if in the first time nine hundred years he was seeing his little brother again, without any of his armor. He sped to Klaus and felt him tense when he had gripped his shoulders. He brushed off the hurt he felt and met Klaus’s gaze. All this time he thought he was saving their souls and speaking the truth. He had hurt his family enough, he was done listening to mother.

“Niklaus, look at me. I’m sorry. I’m sorry for never seeing that I wasn’t the only one suffering. I’m the eldest yet I was never able to protect my younger siblings. I’m sorry for making you feel that I was abandoning you. I’m sorry that I left you to suffer on your own. But most of all I’m sorry that I didn’t try harder, to show you that even though we don’t share total parentage that doesn’t make you any less of my brother. I was there for your first smile, first words, first steps, and all your other first. You are my brother and I swear by the family name that I will try harder. I won’t abandon our family again.”, he next had done something that he hadn’t done since Niklaus was a child, he brought him in for a hug. It took a moment but eventually Klaus returned it and used Finn’s shoulder to quiet his relieved sobs. He felt Finn rubbing his back and used it to comfort himself to stop. When he stopped crying he lifted his head to avoid his brother’s eyes. He hadn’t cried in front of anyone in the last five hundred years.

“Can we keep it in the house that you had to comfort me and that I actually can feel sadness?”, he asked with a joking voice. His brother just rolled his eyes fondly. Then the moment was broken when the rest of his siblings decided that their one on one time was up. Elijah had heard everything and looked proud of his brothers, so did Rebekah. When he met Kol’s gaze he could see some anger but he gave him a tentative smile. Klaus didn’t know it but at his reconciliation with Finn had definitely strengthened their family bonds. He met eyes with Rebekah and she gave him a nod, hopefully his brothers won’t find current events too…strange. He gave one back and she took out her phone to send a text.

“Now I believe it be time for my brothers to get caught up with the times.”, Klaus said after clearing his throat and ignoring the heat he felt in his cheeks.

“The doppelgänger, Elena, is she proving to be trouble?”, Elijah as usual got straight to the usual root of the problem.

“Another doppelgänger? I had thought Katerina was the last of her line?”, Kol had remembered how infuriated Klaus had been. It was the first time he felt anger towards Elijah and remorse for Klaus.

“As it turns out brother she had a child out of wedlock before we met her. But the latest one has been a quite prominent thorn in my behind.”, Klaus said with an irritated growl in his voice. Elijah looked at his brother curiously. But Rebekah wanted to share the good news first.

“While you lot were indisposed Klaus and I added a few members to the family.”, she said with a very large smile.

“Few members?”, Finn couldn’t help but repeat. His brothers looked as curious as he did.

“Yes brother, you see as an alpha of my pack I felt that they became more to me than just some subjects. And of course there is Stefan.”, his brothers could understand the pack bit, werewolves were family oriented. But to Finn and Kol they wondered who Stefan was. For Elijah he almost let his calm mask fall at the mention of the younger Salvatore.

“The younger Salvatore? I had thought with his relationship with Elena he would be against you.”, Elijah remembered that he along with Damon would stop at nothing to protect Elena. Honestly, was quite annoying at times.

“Salvatore?”, Finn wondered what was his family’s history with them. It would seem only him and Kol were out of the loop.

“Katerina shared many qualities with Tatia including juggling brothers. I’m afraid that she made them immortal but luckily the younger was never actually attracted to her, Stefan.”, Klaus let anger seep into his tone. Katerina would have hell to pay for daring to take advantage of his little brother.

“Anyone that holds disdain towards that tart already earns a few points in my eyes.”, Kol never gave Katherine the time of day even though she had tried to gain his attention multiple times. He could always see a glimmer in her eyes of greed and if it wasn’t for Klaus he would have killed her when she kept insisting in her advances.

“Yes, the fact he could see past the blinds similar to what Tatia did is indeed a better man.”, Finn may not have shown it but he was protective of his younger brothers. Once he learned that some girl had dared to pin his brothers against each other for her affection he had wanted to drown her in the creek.

“Well, I took him under my wing and we have a new younger brother. Congratulations Kol.”, Klaus said with a smirk. He wasn’t disappointed with Kol’s reaction. Finn was twenty-seven, Elijah was twenty-four, Klaus was twenty, Kol was eighteen, and Rebekah was seventeen. After Henrik, Kol had become the baby boy of the family they were fiercely protective of.

“IM NOT THE BABY ANYMORE!! YES!”, Kol couldn’t help but shout. His siblings chuckled at his antics.

“I must say this is while delightful news is a big surprise.”, Elijah said once Kol settled.

“Let’s all sit down there is more you lot need to know about has transpired.”, he went on to explain his and Stefan’s history. He explained how Stefan was left to fend for himself against an emotional manipulative girl and how Damon was no help. His brothers burned in anger at Damon just ignoring his brother in obvious distress just to benefit himself. He gotten up to recent events like how the pack would help in finally dealing with Mikael when Rebekah got a text back.

“Why is that strange rectangle making a noise, sister?”, Finn is going to need a looong lesson in history. But it won’t take long, they do have forever.

“It notifies me when a message is ready to be read, Finn. No need for messengers anymore with these.” Rebekah calmly explained while showing him and opening her camera to show the other things it could do. He jumped a little but examined it.

“Man kind has truly evolved.”, Finn always thought it strange the new things humans would make but they always seem to follow a pattern. Rebekah took her phone back when it looked like her brother wanted to break it open to see the inside. She turned to Klaus after responding.

“Yes it has, Nik he said that he’ll be over as soon as he can.”, they thought it best to introduce them now before anyone else in Mystic Falls.

“Who? Stefan?”, Elijah hoped he guessed it right. He was inquisitive and wanted to know the full story of why Stefan had decided to switch loyalties.

“Yes, you see brothers other than Stefan sharing a bond with I, he has achieved something thought to be impossible…but first I must explain our recent discoveries.”, in order to explain their story Klaus has to explain the history of Hailey’s kind.

“Discoveries?”, Finn had always been the one to want to make discoveries and to have creations of his own. While Nik had painted, Finn had worked with wood and stones. He had made his siblings toys and had enjoyed it immensely at seeing their young faces light up.

“Yes, as it turns out there is another kind of magic users. A whole secret society and world filled with magic and they use wands!”, Klaus said flamboyantly. His siblings could see that his eyes light up at the sound of a world were they would be considered normal. But Kol’s eye’s sharpened at Klaus’s description, it couldn’t be.

“Wand wielders? But that’s not possible!”, Kol said in an awed tone.

“You don’t seem very shocked at this brother.”, Finn said while taking in his brother’s reaction. Kol was always the one that had a fondness for magic and witches.

“I knew of them but it can’t be! Human had hunted them out and burned them all! They’re extinct!”, as much as it pained Kol to say it was true. Wand wielders had been persecuted long ago and wiccans had been the ones to survive longer. But Klaus just shook his head to negate his brother’s thoughts, it brought some hope for Kol as he never got the chance to encounter a wand wielder.

“Not extinct more of endangered. They had gone into hiding, brother. And we have made a strong bond with them.”, Klaus said with a fond smile on thinking back about the new family in Mystic Falls. He handed Kol the items he had gotten from Hermione and Hailey.

“You have made allies with wand wielders?”, Kol was amazed even before they supposedly went into hiding wand wielders never had really communicated those outside of their community. The fact that Klaus made allies with them is astounding. He looked at the book and stick with awe.

“In a sense. I made a vow to them in our family name. You see a very powerful wand witch is Stefan’s mate, her name is Hailey.”, Klaus said with some pride in his voice.

“Mates? A witch and a vampire?! That’s impossible!”, Elijah said. Mates within the vampire race was rare enough as it is but an interracial mating bond was never heard of.

“Impossibility seems like a daily occurrence with Hailey Potter. As the mate of our youngest she is our sister-in-law. Which reminds me that I need to speak to a lawyer.”, Klaus said quoting his newest younger sister. Klaus had been doing some thinking and it would be best to have some lawful advice.

“For what Nik?”, Rebekah looked at her brother curiously as did the rest of their siblings.

“Just to see if it’d be possible to achieve an idea that’s been bouncing around my head.”, Klaus didn’t want to have the idea out and get everyone’s hopes up before they knew if they could actually achieve it. Kol wanted to get back on topic.

“I understand that her being a vampire’s mate is impossible but what else? You seem to be leaving something out.” Kol said looking over to his brother with inquisitive eyes, he truly did have an interest with magic. Just as he was about to answer the door bell ringed, no doubt Hailey’s doing.

“If you’ll follow me brothers to greet our guest you’ll see the other impossibility achieved.”, they all trailed Klaus in their vampiric speed. Sage had shown up to Finn’s side holding his hand also curious to see the impossible witch. When Klaus opened the door they were greeted to the sight of a beautiful young couple that had infants in tow. The girl had a beauty about her that could only be explained by her witch status. Her black hair made it seem her porcelain like skin and emerald eyes were glowing. The boy had a handsomeness to him and Sage could understand now why Damon had been so envious of his younger brother. His brown hair and tan skin made his eyes really stand out with their color of aqua. But the babies…

“Brothers and Sage meet the Potter-Salvatore’s. Hailey, Stefan, and of course nephews meet the rest of our family.”, Klaus said as he directed the happy family inside. He peeked over Hailey’s shoulder to smile down at the boys and they stared back at him with their adorable eyes wide. Sage, however, knew why the family is considered out of the norm.

“What? You have children but your so young?”, while not uncommon is was still a concern for Sage. What brought about the young witch to have children at such a young age. Finn didn’t understand Sage’s question.

“Is it no longer usual for someone of her age to not be wed and a mother?”, Finn said looking at everyone curiously. It was common for people as young as thirteen to be engaged as back then life expectancy was anyone’s guess.

“It hasn’t been common in the last century, but we are married.”, Stefan could understand Finn’s question. Back when he was human he would have had an engagement if it hadn’t been for the war despite his young age.

“Wait a minute…”, Kol got a closer look at the infants and at the couple. The scents, the similar features, but most importantly the bond.

“HOW?!!?”, Kol asked flabbergasted. His brothers did the same as him as they finally noticed what he had. It wasn’t possible! Klaus took maybe too much pleasure from seeing all their looks of shock. He went on to explain.

“Hailey and Stefan has truly done the remarkable. As a vampire and a witch they were able to produce offspring. Allow me to be the first to introduce Cedar and Caelan Potter-Salvatore. The impossible children made by the impossible mates.”, Klaus did not hide the pride or smugness from seeing his brothers and Sage do a fantastic impression of a gaping fish.

“It’s been my experience that impossibility is just another challenge.”, Hailey had to just add with an impish smile. Stefan shared it with her and put his arm over her shoulders. Bringing her closer and allowing him an easier way to look adoringly at his sons. It seemed that was enough to finally snap the others out of it.

“Children produced by a vampire? It not possible!”, Elijah couldn’t help but loose his usual calm composure. He had been awake the longest and had seen much more than his siblings. But a secret world and children from a vampire was just overwhelming.

“I’m afraid that your wrong on that, in my world it’s not as uncommon but it also helps that I’ve never been one to follow the norm.”, Hailey said with a smirk and looked to Stefan who also smirked at the end of her statement. Kol couldn’t help it any longer.

“If I may?”, Kol asked Hailey and Stefan. He stepped closer to them to peek at the children and held his hands out in question. Stefan let out a low growl at him but was quickly placated by Klaus and Hailey reminding him that this wasn’t a threat, this was family.

“Do you know how to hold him?”, Stefan answered and questioned. He sounded a bit strained but it was progress. A very valid question he thought, he wondered if the originals were ever able to hold a child during their vampiric years.

“Uhm…directions would be appreciated.”, Kol could feel his cheeks glow red in embarrassment. Stefan helped in showing him how to support Caelan. Kol couldn’t help but examine the new kind of hybrid. His brothers had flanked him and were as well looking over the baby.

“Amazing. Was your pregnancy similar to a normal one? Was it more painful?”, Sage asked while looking at the child that was still in Hailey’s arms, Cedar. Hailey answered with a smile. She handed Cedar to Klaus as she knew he had been secretly dying to hold the boys again.

“Thank you. My pregnancy was far from normal. My gestation was only for two and a half months. It was slightly painful as the twins are part vampire and they stronger than normal. And of course the biggest surprise was actually birthing twins.”, the vampires in the room were listening intently. They took turns asking questions which reminded Hailey of school children. But unknown to them a force was brewing, one so desperate and dark it was willing to do anything to rectify what it believed to have been a plague on this earth. A simple dream to a certain Wiccan left her message.

“Free me, dear one. Help me rise!”, the world was about to be greeted by an old spirit. One that would have to use force as her eldest was no longer of any use.

So I kinda had this story plot for a while but I have no clue how to keep it going or how to end it but I’m going to share it. This is a story for the ship WinterSpider btw, of course.

So basically it starts about right after Bucky had saved Steve from drowning. In my mind I’m like “ I do not care that this man is enhanced he literally had to pull a man that is made of pure muscle out of water and had just survived another epic battle, he has to be wounded, or tired in some way.” With that in mind I’m thinking maybe he made his way, by stealing a car, to New York where he runs out of gas and ditches the car and proceeds by foot. He keeps getting flashbacks of fights he got into when he was younger against a some guys from Queens. My idea is that with the flashbacks happening and with Bucky still being wounded he just curls up into a ball into an alley.

Peter was patrolling around the city , in his ‘onesie’ still trying to get over the fact that he now has super powers and still trying to grieve his uncle Ben, when suddenly his newly discovered super senses had made him aware of Bucky in a nearby alley. Peter having super senses could smell blood and hear Bucky whimpering in pain.

Now from there I have no clue as to how to build a relationship between them. I absolutely adore them as a couple but I keep coming up short as to how to actually build their relationship up.

But the ultimate climax of the story would be that Bucky had forgotten about Peter until after Civil War because his brain was just a little damaged. But then a new Big Bad is coming and they need all the help they can get. Peter was never recruited by Tony and Thanos was never a thing. But there is still a major villain coming. So plot twist here is that because Peter is the only one of his species, his DNA recognizes this and basically says “ We need more beings like us.” So Peter ends up as a teen ‘parent’(but technically mother since he births his kids) with James Buchanan Barnes (Bucky) as his baby daddy. Peter just believes that Bucky up and left him when in fact James just doesn’t remember. I’m going to ask that whoever makes this story please de-age Bucky a bit so that we don’t get the Cap’s Disappointment Eyebrows. But Peter does give birth to twin boys and he has to come clean with Aunt May because well you can’t hide the fact a teenage BOY is pregnant ,with twins no less. I kind of wanted to name them James Benjamin Parker and Grant Richard Parker. To at least have the boys have something of their father’s and to honor that poor little guy that his former love always talked about being sick and still getting in fights.

Anyways I got off track. The fact is they all needed to get together to help fight of the Big Bad. Peter gets recruited by Fury as I refuse to believe we would ignore a man that could bench press 40 tons (in comics at least). As seeing he wanted to keep his family safe, he agrees to fighting. Peter makes his way into a newly reformed SHEILD ,now called SWORD, meeting room to discuss battle strategy. He had to leave his kids with Agent Hill as his Aunt was just piled in work and Agent Hill said she would be honored of watch such adorable little bundles of joy. The babies aren’t that old maybe just about 6 months old and just love being near their mom. But once coming into the room Peter is suddenly pushed against a wall in the meeting room. With a feeling of someone’s hands on his shoulders he starts to panic and wonder why his spidey sense didn’t go off. When suddenly he looks up to find a very familiar set of blue eyes. But as soon as his mind catches up to him Bucky is being pulled away by Steve who is saying “Buck calm down! He’s not an enemy he’s just some kid!” And Peter is suddenly having to look over the God of Thunder shoulder to see if Bucky was either attacking him or just surprised by his presence that he just acted without thinking. I always wanted to see a fix where Peter has a brother-ish bond with Thor. But then Bucky said a few words that made the whole room freeze “ I know you.”

And of course there has to be possessive Bucky but a overprotective brother Thor to sort of block him. But you know Bucky just misreads it as a guy trying to take away his precious Peter. If these elements can be kept I give permission for anyone to use this plot idea. This could also be a NSFW story but it could also just imply that they did it. Just saying I like those gifs just as much as the next person.

Chapter 20

Immortal Dilemmas

“Guys, s-something’s wrong! We got to go! Something’s wrong with Hailey!” Stefan said with a pained and panicked face. Ron hadn’t felt fear like that since the war but it was definitely bringing back memories. The dread he felt when Voldemort screamed that Hailey was dead and the denial he felt until it came crashing down when he saw Hagrid with a tear stained face holding what was thought to be her corpse. Thank the deities that it was not her time yet! The same feelings were coming back, he looked around and saw the same worried looks on the others. He made a gesture and quickly grabbed Stefan’s arm and ran out of the grill into the back alley. He saw that his brothers had caught on to what the plan was. Stefan looked near catatonic but there wasn’t any time to spare, quickly wizards paired off with vampires and apparated back to the Mickaelson Mansion.

Stefan looked like he was getting worse, when they landed he had keeled over and was grabbing his chest in pain. Bill made a move to try and help him back up but Klaus was quick to stop him, Bill was about to ask him why he stopped him when a furious roar erupted from Stefan. The vampires were quick to jump in front and cover the magicals. Klaus had to suppress a shiver when Stefan had stopped screaming and looked dead straight at the mansion. His worse fear for his brother had happened, something bad happened to Hailey and now Stefan’s vampire had gone feral. Before he could bark at his brothers to help hold back Stefan, he had sped into the mansion. They all chased after him but the scene in front of him filled him with dread.

Stefan was hovering over a disturbingly still Hailey and Kol had a piece of broken furniture lodged in his chest. It doesn’t kill them but it still takes them out for a small period of time. He rushed over to pull it out, it shouldn’t take too long for him to wake up. Klaus and his brothers started to frantically look around, the boys…where are the boys?! That’s when a cry of anguish was let out by Stefan. They were all in shock and ran towards him. He let out a hiss when they came too close. He was holding Hailey close to his chest, one hand in her hair and the other around her back but she wasn’t holding him back, she was limp.

She wasn’t breathing. The magicals were suddenly back at Hogwarts seeing the scene all over again and the vampires were being filled with anguish and rage at the loss of their new family. Ron took in a shaky breath in and tried to not let loose the tears that were threatening to spill he had to remind himself the facts. Hailey is the Mistress of Death, even if she dies she won’t stay dead.

“Everyone calm dow-“ he tried to explain before things could escalate.

“How can we possibly be calm?!? Hailey is gone and the boys are missing!!” Klaus’s eyes were flashing from how angry he was and how his wolf was trying to break out and tear out the throat of who was responsible for it.

“SHES NOT GONE-listen there are some things we haven’t gotten to tell you guys yet-“ Ron was cutoff as Hailey sucked in a large gasp and started coughing. Stefan, who still had his feral face on and tears running down, scrambled to put her in a proper position. Kol was coming back as well and was being brought up by his brothers. Hailey was flailing around and trying to get up from the ground but Stefan wasn’t letting her.

“THE BOYS!! WHERE ARE MY BOYS?!? WHERE ARE MY BABIES?!?” She was looking around frantically still trying to get out of Stefan’s arms until Percy had grasped her attention by grabbing her shoulders and barely flinching when Stefan snarled at him. The others were still trying to grasp reality as Hailey still had her human scent.

“Hailey! You got to tell us what happened!” Ever the logical one Percy wanted to know the situation before acting. But what Hailey said threw whatever calm response he could possibly have.

“Katherine happened! She must of took the boys, we got to go!”, she tried to again leave her husband’s arm but was confused on to why he wasn’t letting her go. Kol let out a growl at hearing the woman’s name.

“You just came back from the dead! You shouldn’t be moving around too much! Not to mention, Hailey we don’t know where they went how can we possibly find-“ Elijah tried to reason with her until she pulled out her pendant and muttered a spell which unleashed two golden arrows pointing.

“Little treat MACUSA put in for me, now- LETS GO!” She screamed to everyone, they looked about ready to flash out and have the magicals hitch a ride but Stefan wasn’t moving. Stefan was just sitting with her on the floor letting out wounded growls when she tried to leave. His feral look had yet to leave him. Hailey finally asked her burning question.“What’s going on, why isn’t he talking and why isn’t he letting me go?”

“It’s his vampire, love. It went feral from feeling your death and now it’s likely he won’t be able to do muck other than hover over you until you can snap him out of it.” Klaus said with some trepidation. In theory a mate should be able to calm and coax a feral ripper, so far it seems possible. Hailey took Stefan’s face into her hands and forced eye contact, her face was filled with determination but also with panic.

“Stefan-Stefan, look at me! Katherine did this, she tried to take me away from you, but she didn’t but now she’s trying to take our boys! Stefan please we need to get our babies back! We have to!” Something flickered in his eyes. It started to settle down but his eyes were still blood red, the vampire still had major control. He nodded his head obediently. She reached up and wiped the tear tracks on his face away and nodded back. She looked to everyone. “Follow the arrows! They can shows us the way even with your speed involved! Let’s get the boys back!”

The arrows led them down a familiar path and then it made sense why. Katherine had gone to where she first met the Salvatore brothers, the Salvatore Estate now Boardinghouse. They barged in and found her sitting on the ground. “It never gets old seeing Stefan all sweaty, hot and bothered. Just like when we first met, right Stefan?” Katherine had an amused and cocky smirk on her face which looked misplaced because of how ragged she looked. It quickly dropped as Stefan answered her with an animalistic snarl. She had on the same purple Henley and jeans on when she was impersonating Elena at the park. But it was bloody and torn with her jeans stained of mud and grime. She was practically malnourished from how little she had gotten to drink and her hair was slicked and matted with grime. But what made everyone’s hearts jump was that she had the boys right beside her.

They were crying their lungs out and displaying their natures. Cedar was levitating and throwing everything and Caelan had his baby fangs in full display trying to bite at her. But with Katherine so close to them she wasn’t affected by the chaos as well as keep them a distance to avoid biting. Seeing her just sitting there and daring to taunt them had Hailey boiling and her magic was beginning to react to her emotions.

“Katherine Pierce! You worthless bint! GIVE ME BACK MY BABIES!” The smirk that had dropped from Katherine’s face had come back full force with Hailey’s shouting. What could a human or witch do to her, Katherine Pierce. She’s survived over five hundred years on the run, she could survive a little girls tantrum. Everything this girl had should belong to her! Getting to raise her children despite being young and having Stefan at her side to do it, THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN KATHERINE. It was as if an outside force was speaking as her subconscious, making her be impulsive and more angry like she had to do it. She ignored it and started leering over Stefan again. Her eyes started to travel and she flinched when he lot out a small roar In retaliation. She looked around her redheads with the weird sticks and the Originals, she smirked.

“I don’t know about that…they just have the perfect amount of their daddy in them. Especially this one, he looks so much like Stefan. Would you mind if I just keep him? You can have the other, I just hope that this one is just as much fun as his daddy was.” Hailey had frozen at the implication of what Katherine was intending to do to HER BABY. As if something had snapped, her head drooped and she started to walk towards Katherine. She walked despite the hissing and shouting from everyone and as if Stefan knew something was amiss he just let out a small whimper.

The smirk was slowly dropping from Katherine’s face as the feeling of dread was quickly rising in her. The lights were flickering and the air was becoming cold. Then an unearthly screech was heard in the distance causing everyone but Hailey to flinch. Instead she raised her arm and pointed a single finger at Katherine. She raised her head and caused her family to let out large gasps and be riddled with befuddlement. Her eyes, instead of white it’s had become black and her irises her glowing reminding the Weasleys of the Killing Curse. The screeching was getting closer and closer until it just stopped. Then all of a sudden the door had slammed open and the screeching had filled the house. Ron was quick to bark orders.

“Everyone against the walls don’t get close to those things!” He said while dragging Kol with him.

“What are those things?!” Klaus had been dragged to the wall by one of the twins. He was eyeing the Spector like things that were floating around the room. Every instinct in his body was telling him to run from those things.

“Dementors!”, as he said it the soul suckers had stopped flying around the room and came to a stop by standing behind Hailey, like dogs awaiting their masters orders to eat.

“Her.”, Hailey said simply but it left everyone with chills as her voice had changed to something unearthly. The Dementors charged at Katherine. They lifted her up by her arms and floated her away from Cedar and Caelan. With them so close to her and touching her Katherine was reliving every horrible memory she had. It didn’t take long for her to start begging.

“Please no! I-I’ll do anything I’ll leave you alone just let me go! I didn’t mean it!” She tried getting out of their grips but she couldn’t as she started to freeze in fear when Hailey Potter started to stroll towards her. She stopped momentarily when she got close enough to the boys. She picked them up and they calmed down almost instantly. She looked to the redheaded twins and they quickly scrambled up to get the boys from her. Once the twins were at a safe distance she turned her attention back to Katherine. In the corner of her eye she could see Stefan pelting himself over to the boys and frantically looking them over and nuzzling them when he deemed that they were okay.

“You didn’t mean it! You have evaded your crimes for too long!” Hailey’s voice had never sounded so bone chilling before even when facing off Death Eaters, that doesn’t compare to how angry she sounded at this very moment. She scoffed when Katherine started to form crocodile tears. And then started to explain herself that she was just jealous and just wanted some piece of Stefan. Hailey looked to the dementor on Katherine’s right with a raised eyebrow and I quickly put its corpse like hand over her mouth to shut her pleading up. Katherine was trying to get sympathy from anyone in the room with her wide fear filled eyes but she was just met with looks of disdain.

“Katerina Petrova in the name of Death, I sentence you to your own personal hell! May your last moments be filled with remorse as no rest will accompany you!” She nodded to the Dementors and it removed its hand while the other leaned in. All her manipulation tactics and persuasion powers proved fruitless when being sentenced to the Dementor’s Kiss. The vampires looked on in horror as a white vapor left Katherine’s body and was being sucked up by the Dementor. They let her go and they expected to having to hold her down but she just sat there like a husk. Breathing but looking so empty. The Dementors bowed to Hailey and flew out of the house. Everyone let out a breath they didn’t know they were holding. Stefan ran up to Hailey with the boys still with him, she gave them a faint smile…before promptly fainting. Fred was quick to conjure a very big bean bag for her to fall on. He knew that right now Stefan was in a very delicate mindset and anything could set him off. Not matter how worried he was for Hailey he could not risk it more by possibly pushing her mate too far.

Stefan made a wounded noise and climbed on the bean bag with her. Her arrange his family into a comfortable position. He was slowly coming back, the boys were rightfully tired and found a good sleeping place on their mama. Stefan was being lulled to sleep as well. As soon as Percy saw that they were asleep he put a silencing charm on them. They needed to plan out how they were going to move them back home without waking them up or drawing too much attention. From what he gathered this house was still being used by Damon so they needed to figure it out quickly. Speak of the devil and he shall appear.

Damon barged in with Elena both looked very irritated and with seeing them we’re about to begin interrogating when Charlie and Ron have had enough and hit them a Petrificus Totalus. They rubbed their foreheads when they both dropped like rocks into the floor. It was really turning into a long day.

As the the third tasked arrived Cho had started to notice that Potter and Cedric seemed to have become closer and closer. It made her stomach twist in unbearable knots and fury rage through her. She had to watch in undetected anguish as Potter and Cedric had walked hand in hand to the entrance to the maze and bid each other a good luck kiss. She felt like throwing up at the mere sight. The first spark of red lights had appeared and she had a hope flourish in her that Potter had given up or was horribly hurt beyond repair. But it had turned out to be Delacour. Then, a second flourish of hope appeared with another string of red lights, it was quickly crushed as it was Krum. That had left her dear Cedric against that chit, Potter. Some time had passed by until suddenly Cedric and Potter appeared in front of them. Only something was wrong with Potter. The sight of seeing Cedric holding Potter against his chest while caressing her head had send painful twist through her but she noticed something was off. Potter ….. she wasn’t moving! And she didn’t look to be breathing. A tidal wave of hope and happiness had taken over, Potter was gone! She was no longer in the way. In an instant Cho had come up with an entire plan to comfort Cedric and be his rock for his mourning of that chit until he would finally look to her with love.

Cedric was crying over Harriet’s body. She couldn’t be gone! He still hasn’t introduced her to his parents properly. He still needed to help her escape from her awful relatives. He still needed to properly apologize for taking Cho Chang to the ball instead of her. He still hasn’t told her how absolutely in love he was with her. They had arrived in the graveyard and while on guard he wasn’t really expecting such a disaster to take place. He had heard it too late “Kill the spare!”, he had seen a blast of green light headed towards him as he tried to protect Harri from the unidentifiable voice. But in a moment Harri had shoved him towards the opposite direction and had taken the hit herself. He had to watch as the same voice had shouted order again for him to be restrained and for the rat-like man to haul up his beloved’s body to a tombstone and cut her arm.

He had struggled with all his might until he saw the most horrendous scene unfold. A snake-like man had arisen and it was then that Cedric had realized who it was as He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named appearance was one that everyone in the magical community had learned to fear. A burst of strength surged through him as He-, Voldemort had started to pat and caress Harriet’s face. He had made a dash for her taking her wand and dueling Voldemort. He had faintly heard the Phoenix song play and he saw glowing images of people shoot from the wands connection. Each telling him to win until he saw them. James and Lily Potter, his girlfriend’s parents they had said for him the break the connection and take the portkey but to most importantly to take care of Harriet, much to his confusion.

He did as told and had grabbed the portkey and his young love’s body. And now he sits in front of the crowd sobbing. It wasn’t until someone had tried to take Harri away from him that he had taken notice of his surroundings. He screamed.

“Nooo, you can’t take her away please! I can’t leave her! Don’t touch her!”, he couldn’t abandon her not now. The suddenly a loud gasp had escaped from Harriet, and then came a sputtering of coughs. She was alive! “Oh thank Merlin!”, Cedric proclaimed after getting over the shock then proceeded to check her over seeing if anything could be a fatal wound and to be sure she was real. “Don’t ever scare me like that again!”, he said just to express how much anguish he was in, in the few minutes she had not been amongst the living.

“I’ll try not to, Ced.”, Harri replied a bit hoarsely. Afterwards he had pulled her into a bruising kiss, that she would later blush at but was cut off short by a shrill scream. From the stands arose Cho Chang ,a fifth-year Ravenclaw that Cedric had taken to the ball. Was she freaked out by her supposed corpse coming back to life?

“NO! Why didn’t you stay dead ?!?” She exclaimed before she had tried to run towards the surrounded couple with her wand drawn, only to be stopped by Bill and Charlie Weasley. She was still thrashing. Why hadn’t that chit Potter just stayed dead ?! She had to just go and do the impossible again, to ruin any chance that she could have with Cedric. She had caused tears to pour from his eyes, and she’ll be damned before letting that hussy get away with it and still be alive.

The couple looked in her direction startled. It soon turned to terrified and shock glances as Cho had started to proclaim her undying love for Cedric and swearing that they would be together as soon as she got rid of Potter. As Cho was being restrained she sobered up just enough to look in Cedric’s direction and see something that had utterly destroyed her. Her Cedric was still holding that abomination Potter to his chest and looking in her direction finally but not in love like she had dreamed but in fear, shock, and disgust. As she threw another death threat at Potter for stealing Cedric away, he had just pulled Potter closer to him. That haunting image was the last thing she saw before the elder Weasley brothers had put her out.

A scene I had in my head for my Harriet x Cedric fanfiction

(Who I imagine to be Harriet)

So ,just an idea, how about a new fan fiction?

I’m thinking the avengers are on a mission against Hydra who has started to dig into the realm of invading multiple universes. And as usual once the avengers think they have everything solved and have everyone already incapacitated, there’s that one stubborn agent who wants to hit the self destruct button (but accidentally just hit the on button). And so there’s a big blast and when everyone wakes up their in a different universe. A universe in which mutants are separated from normal humans. They are treated like second class citizens and like criminals. If you guys have ever heard of the Jim Crow laws, think of it like that. Mutants were given only the worst of everything and humans wanted them to not rise up to power. If a baby is born with the mutant gene they are disowned, even if it’s a dormant gene, and are sent off to the mutant section of the city. The mutants/mutates are given a small section of a city to reside in, the section is usually only made up of old broken down buildings. When babies arrive there are usually adults waiting to come and get them. The mutants have a system that in order to live they needed to rely on their powers, so as soon as someone starts to develop them they get sorted into what they could do to help their fellow mutants.

In this universe, Universe XY, the Avengers where comprised of humans that had technology that made them on par with a mutant. Instead of being a team for all of humanity, they were a team that was made to keep mutants in line. This universe’s Avengers only had Iron Man, Hawkeye, War Machine, Black Widow, Ant Man, and Wasp. So,when what looked like to be the Avengers landing in mutant territory, the mutants ran away and went into hiding which confused our normal Avengers a lot (Captain America, Iron Man, White Wolf, Black Widow, Dr.Hulk, Hawkeye, and intern Spider-Man). When Tony had tried to ask a kid, barely 11 years old, that was too scared to move where they were, he almost got his eyebrows scorched off. The kid he was talking to had a fight or flight response when , what could be considered to mutants, the Iron Terror started walking up to him. He was about to yell at the kid to be careful with his powers when suddenly a women had swooped in and stood in front of the kid with tears in her eyes.

She was bawling out, “Please have mercy, he’s only a child. He doesn’t know how to control it yet, if you have to punish someone punish me. I am responsible for him.”

And then like it just hits the Avengers like a tidal wave, these people were afraid of them. The mutants in hiding slowly come out and say the same thing as the women. Until suddenly, a group of people walk up to them, a very familiar group of people. The group had Steve Rogers, James Barnes, James Howlett, Victor Creed, Ororo Munroe, and  Anna Marie LeBeau.

I’m thinking of there being a huge misunderstanding, but eventually the Avengers explain that they were not the Avengers of Universe XY. The group of mutants were only convinced whenever Bucky and Steve had taken of their cowl and mask. So the mutants while still hesitant showed the Avengers to their home. And there the Avengers find a Peter Parker, one that has some exciting news to tell his friends and husband of two years. Peter Parker of Universe XY, 20 years old, husband of Steve Rogers, was ..... pregnant. In this universe a mutant man is fully capable of bearing children.

And of course as usual I have no clue how to proceed. I get frustrated at myself for coming up with an interesting beginning of a story but have no clue as to how to end it.

(I did not make this picture)

I FOUND IT

A while ago I was looking for a specific fanfiction about a female Harry Potter and Cedric and someone had commented that they had wanted to read it as well. It’s a cute little story.

It’s called Returned from War (Victorious) by Ellroy. ( in the tags they mentioned that they did not want their work to be reposted anywhere so I can’t add a link I think).

I do not own this and the person who did write this is awesome 🤩

Chapter 19

Immortal Dilemmas

Once she saw her, her first thought was to get the harlot far away from her family and make sure she never sees the light of day again but then what fun would that be? Klaus had the right idea of punishing her, but to what extent? From what she could gather this Katherine was hoping and betting on the fact that they would want to keep her alive in order to carry out her punishment for her crimes against the family. But what would befitting punishment of the oh so great Katerina Petrova? Then it occurred to her, Katherine’s greatest fear was death. But what the vampire didn’t realize death would be a mercy compared to all the horrors that the magical world had to offer. So the real question was, what from her world is a befitting punishment for the woman that ran from her destiny then used her powers to take advantage of innocents. Innocents that included her husband.

Being a Mistress of Death meant she had certain leeway’s along with responsibilities. Responsibility wise, death had told her that everyone had a course and it was her job to ensure that those that dared to try and leave that course had to face consequences. Or in more understandable words, punish and end those that try and escape death. Those like Tom and the Originals mother, those are the type of people that she would get rid of. A leeway was that as the mistress of death she had control over death’s creatures, to a certain extent. Dormentors we’re at her beck and call, they were what death used as grim reapers for those who had died with many sins over their head. Then a fun tidbit she had not known was that phoenixes were also a creature of death. They were the creature to lead those that had lived a life well. Thestrals and Banshees were also among the creatures, they were for signaling that death was to come or had came. Then of course there were vampires. If she uses Death’s influence then she can force vampires into submission, they would feel as if they could not disobey a word she says when doing so. She however had no idea she could do anything with death’s creatures until the day Katerina had tried to cause Hailey the worst pain that any women could have experienced.

The Mikaelson’s had decided to have Katherine locked up in the basement. Their plan was to only give her one blood bag a week to make her too weak to access her healing. The magicals had no history with Katherine so they were asked to leave her punishment up to the vampires. Hailey had begrudgingly agreed as it was not up to her in how her husband decided what to do with the tart unless asked but she made plans just in case. Last she heard Klaus had compelled her to stick her head out of the single window in the basement when it was daylight without her ring. When he had ordered that just when she was about to die to stick her head back in. She had decided not to visit the mansion when a ‘session’ was in progress as she didn’t want the boys to hear. Stefan had not yet taken part of a session due to the fact that Damon is once again being a nuisance. He had heard from some townies about Elena acting even more unhinged at a scene that happened in the park but that day Damon was with Elena discussing over how much a menace the Potter family had become.

So he was frequently pestering his younger brother about it as he knew it involved Katherine. Stefan could tell from the unhinged look in Damon’s eyes that he was still obsessed with Katherine. It made Stefan scoff in Damon’s face when he was interrogated in the Mystic Grill. It caused his other brothers, who decided to grab a drink with him, to start chuckling which caused them all to start laughing. Damon was infuriated but couldn’t do anything so just left the grill in a huff.

Hailey decided to pay the mansion a visit, Kol had texted her saying he missed his magical nephews. She still hadn’t gotten around to telling her in-laws about her status and her boys destiny. She and Kol got along pretty well, he was constantly asking questions that she was happy to answer and she loved seeing his reactions whenever he was reading a course book from Hogwarts. “So I’m to understand that Caelan is less magical than Cedar?” Kol asked after seeing the boys have a small tantrum at having to wait to be fed, they only calmed down after Hailey was able to find their blood infused bottles.

“Oh, um kinda? The boy’s both have magic but Caelan is more in tune with his vampire nature than Cedar and Cedar in turn is more in tune with his wizard nature. The boys are the first of their kind so it’s difficult to predict how it might affect them. So far they are pretty much the same when it comes to their diet but everything else is a bit different.” Hailey can’t say she has given it much thought. The boys sometimes even switch things up, the other day Caelan had the hiccups that caused Stefan’s hair to change colors in sync with it. A few days ago Cedar was being fussy about being held by his uncle Elijah when he wanted his mom to hold him and ended up trying to nibble on his uncle’s shoulder to get him to pass him to his mother. She apologized profusely at seeing Elijah’s pained face and bleeding shoulder.

Kol was just playing with his nephew’s foot while his sister-in-law was thinking. If he was honest with himself he was a bit jealous of them, a vampire with their magic intact. He mourned the loss of his magic but seeing it was always enough. With wand wielders magic seemed more free and beautiful. Just as he smiled at the thought Cedar giggled causing the grey henley Kol was wearing to become a bright neon pink which caused the baby to giggle harder making his shirt like a flash mob of colors following the baby’s laughter. He was amazed once again by how different wiccans and wand wielders were. Once the baby boy had gotten bored of the flashing colors Kol was left in a royal purple with wretched yellow polka dots. He was going to ask Hailey to spell his shirt back to normal but she looked very preoccupied with praising the baby for his accidental magic. He decided to flash upstairs to change at a human pace to give Hailey some alone time with the boys.

Then all of a sudden there was a crash and in a flash a very feral Katherine had appeared in front of Hailey. Her mouth was drenched in blood which made her extremely worried ,had Katherine been starved of blood to the point that she attacked someone in the pack? Kol had flashed down immediately but it was too late. Katherine had flashed to push Hailey hard to the far wall leaving the babies bawling for their mother and hostages to Katherine Pierce. When Stefan had felt a searing pain in his chest when he was just sitting in the parlor with some of his brothers he knew something was wrong…something happened to Hailey.

Chapter 3 of

Immortal Dilemmas

Thanks to Stefan using compulsion they weren’t asked for an ID to rent out a room for the night to see if they were adults. Hailey just brushed it off as her mind was clouded with desire. The desk clerk had been eyeing Stefan with lust which made her seethe and glare at her but also made her realize that Stefan is a very sought out guy. He probably has a decent amount of experience, unlike her. The most she had done with a boy before Stefan was hold hands and a peck on the cheek. She had never done anything like this before. She was worried that she would let Stefan down with her lack of experience.

While they were waiting for their key to the room Stefan picked up her irregular heartbeat and it showed that she was nervous and anxious. He turned to look at her and saw that she was biting her bottom in worry. He doesn’t like seeing her anxious, from what he could gather from what she has told him she has done enough of that in her life. He has completely stopped caring that his humanity was back on and that he had started feeling emotions since he met Hailey. With his brother he would have forced Stefan to turn it on again through torture; pain, anger, and just generally any negative emotion but with Hailey she was able to do it without trying. She was able to make him turn it on by overloading him with positive emotions; happiness, comfort, and… dare he think it love. With how she has made him feel this night, he wants to appease in any way he can.

“What’s wrong? Are you having second thoughts because, it’s okay if you are we can leave-“, he wanted to ensure her that she doesn’t need to do this and they could just leave and walk around to talk some more. He didn’t get to finish comforting her as she had silenced him in the best way, she had pulled him into a heated kiss to ensure him that she definitely wasn’t having second thoughts. She was the one to break the kiss though he desperately didn’t want to he had to pull back a little to get a clear head to hear what she wanted to say.

“I’m not having second thoughts, it’s just I’ve never done this and I’m worried that I won’t be able to satisfy you-“, and now it was her turn to be silenced by a kiss, but this one was more chaste and filled with comfort and understanding.

“Hey, you don’t need to worry about that. Trust me, with you there is no way I could be left unsatisfied.”, he said the last part a bit mischievously with an adorable smirk. Hailey is so beautiful, every part of her is effortlessly seductive to his eyes. When she was biting her lip earlier he had to hold himself back from ravaging her.

“Are you sure you aren’t put off by the fact that I’m a virgin and have no experience?”, she has had boys offer before but they were only trying to use her and it didn’t feel right to even think about kissing a boy before Stefan.

“The only thing that puts me off is the fact that boys from where your from didn’t try harder to be with you that and they probably didn’t have any decent taste if they gave up on you.” and he’s actually secretly glad that those boys gave up. He wanted to be the one who touches her first. Thinking about some guy touching her first fills him with anger, jealousy, and possessiveness. He hadn’t expected such a big reaction from his vampire on the thought alone of some guy touching her, he had to use every ounce of his self control to calm it down. He broke the kiss and leaned down to press their foreheads together and didn’t think when he spoke.

“Hailey if anything it actually makes me… glad that I’ll be the first one to do this with you. At least this way I hope I’ll be able to keep you from experiencing a trashy first time.”, he was worried that he would seem weird and he tensed up when Hailey looked up with with widened eyes into his, as if searching his very soul when she found it she smiled and pulled him into a hug. She pressed her head to the center of his chest and he put his arms around her waist and pressed his cheek on top of her head.

“Thank you Stefan. I still want to, if I’m being honest with myself I can probably only trust you with doing this. So please, let do this.”, she said with conviction. They broke apart from the hug a bit to look at each other and shared a smile and just as they were going to share another kiss the desk clerk came back with their key. Stefan took it without paying attention to the clerk’s obvious pining and held Hailey’s hand to lead her to the elevators. Stefan felt like he needed some sort of skin contact with Hailey, he hasn’t been able to keep his hands off her. Once they got on Stefan had once again pulled her into his arms to reclaim her lips Hailey had quickly pushed their floor button before they could get lost in each other. Stefan had a hand caressing her cheek and his arm wrapped around her waist. Hailey had her hand on his nape and her arm around his waist. Neither felt the bond between them turn more tangible and stronger just from their exchange kisses all they felt was their passion and desire growing. They both groaned when they reached their floor, disappointed that they had to wait but exchanged impish smiles. They walked for a short moment before finally reached their room.

*SMUT STARTING WARNING*

As soon as they were in the room with the door closed Stefan wasted no time in pulling Hailey pack into a heated kiss. But this time the kiss was different it was hungry, possessive, and filled with the promise for more. Stefan began to trail a kisses down Hailey’s neck leaving little love bites in their wake. Something in him purred in lust and affection with seeing her with his mark. Pride surged through him seeing how flustered Hailey was from his kisses, the pink highlighting her cheeks was such a good color on her. For Hailey something deep inside her preened in response to getting marked, it made her feel appreciated and protected. She felt as if she wasn’t doing enough and followed Stefan’s example when he pulled back to help her take off her battered hoodie. She surged forward to lock her lips on his neck and left three large marks. She felt intense satisfaction and immense pride in seeing Stefan panting and chasing after her lips after she was done. She soon found herself in only her tee and undergarments and Stefan was in similar attire. She was leaning back on the bed lips locked with Stefan leaning over her. They soon both removed their shirts. And Hailey froze when Stefan had looked at her nearly bare body. How could she forget that her body had multiple scars? Before she could haste her shirt back on Stefan had started to trail kisses on her scars. The action left delightful shivers running down her spine.

“So beautiful and perfect. So strong and pretty.”, he murmured loud enough for her to hear him. He was initially angry at whatever caused his beauty to have her scars but he noticed her heartbeat, he had to endure her that she was still so unfairly beautiful to him. When she heard him she felt the heat rise in her cheeks. How could Stefan make her feel so pretty and perfect with so few words?

He begun to take of his shirt leaving him in his boxers.Hailey had never seen a boy ,other than Ron while they were in the run and limited of space, shirtless but Stefan had the body similar to a Greek marble statue. His muscles were taught and his abs were drool worthy, not to mention the outline that she could see bulging from his boxers. He took off his underwear along with hers. They both took a moment to observe each other’s bodies more. Stefan had his taught and lean muscles on full display and his skin looked so smooth. She then started to trail her eyes down and she widened them in alarm. Pressing to his belly was Stefan’s thick manhood of eight inches. She was worried that it wouldn’t fit but was also fascinated by it. She then noticed Stefan’s hungry stare at her bare body. She felt shy and moved her arms to try and cover her breast but Stefan stopped her. He wanted a better look at Hailey’s body. She had a gorgeous hourglass figure. Her bust was a d-cup and her ass looked absolutely delicious. Her fair skin and scars made her look like a war goddess and so irresistible. Stefan still wanting to assure her that she was attractive pressed close to her on the bed. She felt his desire poking at her hip.

“Do you feel that sweetheart? Your so irresistible and perfect that you already have me so hard that it almost hurts.” he said trying to convey how badly he wants her. Hearing that it was hurting him made her try to relieve it.

“Will it feel better if I start to touch it? Do you need me to touch you Stefan?”, she said in a sultry manner. She reached down and trailed her small hand up and down his shaft gaining more confidence with every moan and groan he let out. She noticed pre-cum starting to leak from the tip and ran a finger over it and brought it to her mouth, it was a bit bitter but good. She took great pride in knowing that it drove Stefan wild. Stefan was never one to not repay his dues, so he started to trail his fingers on Hailey’s maidenhead. She gasped when she felt his fingers reach her wet folds. He gently teased and pinched her clit. He started to take his pointer finger and gently thrusted it in and out to help prepare her. It soon turn to two once she started moaning his name and became a bit faster in thrust when she started stroking his manhood faster. Stefan was losing his mind to the pleasure and felt that if he didn’t stop her, he would end up coming in her hand. But before he could say anything the fae like girl he had brought to bed had surprised him again.

“Babe, you won’t be able to be in me if we don’t stop.”, and he nearly came at the sound of her voice so hoarse from moaning. He took out his fingers and she moaned the loss of them in her. He then repaid her earlier action by sucking on said fingers to taste her.

“Lay down on your back.”, she didn’t argue with his chosen position as she wanted to be able to see him. Truth be told he also wanted to see her reactions and be able to easily access her neck to leave more of his marks. He lined them up before telling her something important and asking a very important question.

“Babe when I enter it’s going to hurt a bit as I’ll be breaking your hymen. I want to know if you want me to go slow or fast when I do it.”, he had to make sure she knew what was gonna happen before anything actually happens, as if she could read his thoughts she thought along the same lines and fell a bit more in love with his consideration for her.

“Fast,but please be gentle.” she answered but whispered the last part of it.

“Always.”, he said it as a promise and oath.

He thrusted in all of his length in fast but made sure to be gentle and stop when he felt he had broken through. With her hymen broken it had stained his manhood with her virgin blood unknowingly starting a ritual. While it had hurt it was definitely less painful than the basilisk venom. She dug her nails a bit into his shoulders and gritted her eyes and teeth. They were broth frozen until she experimentally squeezed the length inside her causing both Stefan and her to moan and Stefan to buck his hips a bit. He looked at her with a silent question in his eyes. She nodded and he started to thrust gently into her cavern. She started demanding for harder and faster and he did not disappoint. Soon enough she was screaming his name while he was groaning hers. He was getting close and from how she was staring to get tighter she was too. His vampire instinct had started to kick in he turned her over so she was lying on her stomach, he started thrusting in and out like an animal with the fastest speed he could do trying to maintain the image of human and get his cock as close to her womb as he can get. She started to plead with him and moan his name even louder. He brought her up so that the position was her back to his chest. He sucked on her neck and played with her breast as he got as far as he could inside her with this new angle. This was the tip over for Hailey as she had started to come around Stefan’s cock. Her climaxing caused Stefan to climax inside of her causing his (thought to be) infertile sperm to paint the insides of her barren (to humans) womb and for him to bite her nape enough to draw blood and complete the ritual.

*END OF SMUT*

They were both exhausted and basking in each other’s touch as they cuddled. They were just staring at each other in silence, anything that needed to be said has either already been or could be discussed tomorrow. Hailey had her hands caressing Stefan’s face and his hands were drawing circles in her hips. He pressed a kiss to her scar on her forehead and then a kiss to her lips. They were pressed together and eventually lulled into sleep.

*Stefan Salvatore’s Dream/Nightmare*

Stefan was in the boarding house sitting with Hailey cuddled up to his chest. Then it Damon speeds in and Hailey is gone from him.

“You really think you could have something with her baby bro? With you in the equation you’d just get her killed or with her hating you especially if she finds out what you are.”, Dream Damon said with the usual cocky smirk that turned into a sneer towards the end. He about to speeds towards him when it changes again this time it’s Elena standing in front of him with that judgmental and longing gaze he’s come to hate.

“Come on Stefan you know you would end up ruining her. Just like me. I was perfectly okay and normal before you showed up. I’ve lost so many people and have had to sacrifice so much. You really think she’ll still be with you when she hears what you do for Klaus?” he’s so close to snapping her neck when it changes again to Klaus this time.

“Come now Stefan, you bring this lovely creature with you and I’ll just end up using her to keep you in line. Not to mention she would slow you down, wouldn’t she, Ripper?” Dream Klaus said with the same infuriating smile as the real one. It changed again to his father.

“You think you deserve her. She’s human, monstrous scum like you should leave her out of your world. If you want what’s best for her you’d better let her go.”, his dream self at least ended up ripping out his dream father’s heart.

*End of Nightmare*

He woke up up with a cold sweat. He looked over to his side and saw that Hailey was still sleeping. She looked so innocent and peaceful. He reviewed his dream while he trailed his eyes over her. He couldn’t do that to her. He can’t drag her into his messy life and make her a pawn to use against him. She already means a great deal to him, he can’t make a human girl suffer for him being selfish. With his mind made up he moved quietly through the room to put on his clothes but before he left he left a loving kiss on Hailey’s head and written his phone number on the hotel complimentary cards and left it on the pillow near her head. He felt that he needed to be more sincere so he also left the daylight ring he’s had since he was a young vampire. He could always get another. He was lucky it was still late. He hoped she would contact him. If she wanted to keep in touch with him, he wasn’t in the right to deny her that was his excuse secretly he just hoped it could lead to them meeting again. With what he felt like needed to be done dealt with he stepped through and closed the door. With every step he took away from Hailey his humanity turns off bit by bit. By the time he was in his car his whole humanity was off as if he had never had them on in the first place. It was like the whole night before had never happened…but it did. He would always have the memories of Hailey with him and close to his heart and hopefully they can meet up again without having a threat hanging over his life, but for now he needed to continue like nothing happened… for her he was willing to do anything with or without his humanity.

*Hailey Potter’s Dream*

She was cooking something in Number 12 Grimmauld Place when she felt a chin on her shoulder and arms wrap around her waist. She looked to find Stefan smiling adorably at her. She was just about to speak when her dream changed. The kitchen became an endless black horizon. She swirled around to find out where she was. She froze when she heard somebody clear their throat to get her attention. She turned her head slowly towards the origin of the sound and she froze at the image. Standing in a black clothing was her godfather, Sirius Black.

“Sirius?…”, she asked with hesitation, this man looks similar to him but there was something off. He chuckled.

“Sort of pup, death needed a meeting with you and needed someone to be their… representative. I offered and they took me up on it.”, she could badly believe it but then again she came from a world where wands were mandatory at eleven.

“But… you… I’m sorry, Sirius for dragging you-“, she started with her apology but was quickly cut off.

“None of that pup, I gave my life for you as was my original job, I was meant to protect you. But if your real sorry about it…”, he started to trail off.

“What, what can I do to make it up?”, Hailey said she just needed to do something for him.

“Just first listen to the message death is going to give you, and don’t get too freaked out he going to be using he as a host… sort of.”, as soon as he said it the leather trench coat he was wearing propped the hood over his eyes. The voice that came out of Sirius’s mouth was not his but rather something inhuman about it.

“Hello my mistress. I see you’ve already made yourself aquatinted with a creature of mine. Barely a day as my new mistress, good to see you can get it done early.”, Death said through Sirius’s voice though it sounded raspy and hoarse, like he hasn’t had a chance to rest in a decade…though in this case it could be true. She also found it strange that Death was trying to crack a joke and lift the mood. Though what Death said caught her attention, when had she met a creature of his?

“Death, what…w-when had I met a creature of death?”she tried stammering out, she was a bit nervous though she may be it’s mistress, it’s still an all powerful force that no one can escape. Death didn’t hesitate to answer it’s newest master.

“Soon after you arrived in America mistress. You made yourself known to one of my creatures that has been on Earth for nearly two hundred years while his species has been there for a thousand. You went and got yourself a vampire lover barely a day into being the Mistress of Death.”, Death said with a hoarse chuckle towards the end. It made her freeze, lover? Until this very night she had never had one and Death did say on her first day. So that meant…Stefan is a nearly two hundred year old vampire?!? She lost her virginity to a vampire?!? She accidentally said that last sentence out loud. She felt her cheeks heat up in embarrassment but all Death did was send her a smirk. But then she remembered the prophecy that was written in the books, ‘As it is stated in the original tale a brother passed down his gift from death. However there will be a day in which a descendent will be in ownership of all three hallows making them the Master of Death. And they along with a creature of death will be able to bring the next heir of Death.’, she was the master and Stefan was the creature that meant…she brought a hand to lay on her stomach and looked to death with a silent question. They nodded in affirmation…she had the Heir of Death growing inside her. She burst into happy tears, she had thought she lost her chance in starting a family after acquiring the title, she’s so happy. But…how would she tell Stefan, she learned at Hogwarts on how there were different vampires in the world. Magical vampires in which only males had the ability to procreate but it was a one out of a million chance and the mother had to be a witch. Muggle vampires are all infertile or at least there was never a case of pregnancy, not till now. Death could read her thoughts, they needed to tell her about their creatures decision in keeping her safe.

“Mistress when you wake you will be alone in that room.”, Death said in a gentle manner. She snapped her head towards him in distress did Stefan just…use her. Death quickly amended her thoughts.

“Currently your lover has been entangled with very dangerous people, including his own brother. He’s in debt to one of the founding members of his species who would not hesitate to use or harm you to keep Stefan in line. With his brother he would try to use you the same way and likely try to use you as a sacrifice to keep himself, his brother, and his brother’s ex Elena alive. He had to leave in order to keep you protected, he didn’t want to in fact he left something next to you to try and never actually be apart from you. In fact his inner vampire was raging. He had made himself your mate by completing the ritual of claiming you.” Death said, Stefan was one of their favorites. They don’t need to explain themselves. With their explanation done it appeased Hailey, Stefan didn’t know she was a witch, a powerful one at that, and that she could protect herself. But the fact that he would put himself through being separated from his mate so he could protect her made her love him a little bit more. But she was still a bit miffed that he decided that on his own. There was also the little bundle of joy she would have to explain to him. Death got a mischievous smile and golden her an idea of theirs.

“Mistress, since you are upset with your lover how about you get back at him.”, while Stefan may be one of their favorites, Hailey was still their master and would always take higher priority along the incoming Heir. She looked at Death curiously, did Sirius’s body end up influencing Death? Death ignored the look she was giving them and told her of theirs.

“There will come a day while your child is still in infancy in which you will need to decide on a new place of residency. You will need to infuse you magic with an object and decide by chance. Only after your child is born can this happen. You will meet with him again. And absolutely bamboozle him and make him insanely jealous on the fact that someone had given you a baby. Only after he rages can you reveal the truth about everything.”, Death enjoyed a good soap opera. Hailey thought about it and it did sound hilarious. It would be a good start in teaching Stefan not to hold her out in decisions. She soon had a matching smirk and Death beamed at their mistress for doing their idea. It needed to be done this way or it could turn out for the worse. Their sibling Fate could be a real bitch if they don’t get their way. Death bid her a goodbye, Sirius pulled down the hood and revealed his troubled face though there was a hint of amusement on it.

“What’s wrong Padfoot?” Hailey asked him in amusement. He had a pout on his face in good humor.

“Me and your father agreed that you shouldn’t even date until you were thirty and now some pubescent vampire has gone and defiled you…I am so haunting him!” he said in a childish and endearing way. She felt that she was beginning to wake up.

“Thank you for coming to me Paddy and don’t be too hard on Stefan. I think…I think I love him.” Sirius just looked at her with an understanding smile and joyful eyes.

“Don’t worry pup I’ll just put the fear of the Black name in him. I love you pup make sure you head straight home when you wake.”, he told her in a mock parental way.

“I will and I love you too Padfoot.”, as soon as she finished saying her goodbyes she awoke.

*End of Dream*

As said so by Death she was alone in the room, she squashed down the disappointment she felt. She looked around to try and find what Death said Stefan left for her. She found the little card with his number, she’ll have to ask Hermione for help. But her heart skipped a beat when she saw that he had also left her his ring, the one he told her meant a great deal to him. She also just realized that she has been gone for hours and her friends and pseudo family must be freaking out over it. She quickly got dressed, tucked the card into her pocket, and transfigured a towel rack into a necklace chain for her to put the ring on it and wore it. It was too big to wear in her fingers and she didn’t want to lose it. She made good on her promise to Sirius and apparted back to the UK after concentrating. She landed in front of The Burrow, time to face the music.
