As I'm walking back through the Bayou aftery latest talk with the small pack I plan to give moonlight rings to, I smell a vampire. Odd. All Marcel's guys know the crescent pack runs out here as wolves all month. None of them would be dumb enough to come out here.
I blur toward the place I feel the vampire ready to see who it is.
_
Arriving at the camp o can smell two familiar scents. One is Hayley. The other…. Tyler Lockwood?
'That's right!' I think to myself as I stand on the edge of the encampment' I remember Tyler Lockwood coming to New Orleans in the earliest season to try and stop Klaus's baby from being born.
My inner monologue is cut short when I hear Hayley scream. I blur to the cabin to see Tyler inject the werewolf experiment with Hayley's blood before snapping his neck. 'Jeez. The guys definitely gotten more brutal.' I think to myself while listening to Tyler speak.
I remember this scene. Where Tyler tested the theory about Hope being able to create Hybrids.
About an 15 minutes later, the guy Tyler killed wakes up with a shock before stumbling around the cabin eventually falling down outside.
"You're okay," Tyler tells him as he sits up.
Looking up at Tyler his voice changes and I can feel the wolf on the surface. No doubt his eyes are beginning to change, "I'm Better than okay."

As I watch the two to back inside I begin to prepare.
Tyler grabs the knife to finish the job before Dewayne steps in, "stop it!"
"Why do you care?" Tyler asks. "You got what you wanted."
"Dewayne he's going to kill me," Hayley speaks up, "and he'll kill you too. He said hybrids are too dangerous to live. You need to stop him."
"Shut up!" Tyler says before making a move towards her. He's stopped by Dewayne grabbing his shoulders, turning him around, then throwing the older hybrid toward the wall of the cabin.
After a quick scuffles ensues, Tyler rips his heart out. I see Hayley fly out the cabin.
I decide it's time to make my move. In an instant I appear before Tyler. "Funny seeing you here Tyler. Even funnier to see you plotting to kill a child. An unborn child." I say with my red eyes burning.
"What do you know! That baby is evil, and I'll kill it if it's the last thing I-"
He's cut off when klaus appears before him. "Thank you Zach. But I think I'll handle this one." The original says with his hybrid eyes glowing.
I wave him off. "Be my guest, he's your beta." I say to him leaning against the wall while they have their little tiff.

After klaus returns to the cabin he begins eyeing Dewayne's corpse. I decide to give voice to what he's already figured out. "Yea, that's a hybrid. I thought you couldn't make more of those?" I ask him.
"I can't." Was all he replied with. Before either of us can speak again we hear Hayley and Elijah return.
We walk outside and klaus speaks while dragging Dewaynes body. "This appears to be the body of a hybrid." Klaus said.
"How?" Elijah asks.
"I don't know. All I do know is I didn't sire him. Maybe you can shed some light on this Hayely?"
She went toward him aggressively, "As if you didn't already know," only to be stopped by Elijah.
I feel Klaus' mode shift. "Ah, aren't you two fast friends. Come on then, what horrible accusations have you decided to levy against me?"
Elijah speaks, "Tyler Lockwood brought Hayley here to test a theory, that your child's blood could be used to create hybrids. He claims you knew this. Furthermore, you planned to create an army."
"Of course. I mean why else wouldn't show any Interest in my own flesh and blood? A heartbroken little crybaby points his finger at me and my own brother falls in like EAGER to believe it. How quickly you assume the worst. Especially when it comes from her," Klaus says with a look at Hayley.
"Oh spare me your indignation. When have you ever demonstrated any concern for Hayley or her child beyond your own selfish pursuits? And what was it you said to me? 'Every king needs an heir,'"
"So you doubt my intentions, well, I can't say I'm surprised. Standing next to the noble elijah how could I be anything but the lesser brother? A liar. A manipulator. A bastard." I can tell he's hurt by Elijah's actions, even if he won't show it the right way.
Klaus steps off the porch we're standing on and walks face to face with his brother, "that's all I am to you isn't it, and to Rebekah. And judging by the way Hayely hangs on your every word, it's clear she feels the same way. No doubt my child will, as well."
Elijah seems to finally understand his mistake, "Brother if I-" he begins to speak only to be cut off by an angry Klaus.
"We've said all that needs to be said, brother." Klaus said the word with disdain.
He throws his arms out wide and steps back before looking to me, then back to his brother and baby momma. "I'll play the role I've been given." He says before blurring back to his brother and biting him on the neck.
After wiping the blood from his mouth he speaks. "You two enjoy eachother company. You'll have much to bond over when the Hallucinations and Dementia set it. Consider that bite my parting gift to you both." He says before walking away.
When I know he's out of earshot I speak to the duo still In front of me. "He's right you know?"
Both of them turn to look at me. "for hayley I can see why youd be a bit skeptical of Klaus' intentions. He hasn't given you much reason."
I look to the older original, "but you," i begin shaking my head, "you've been the only one who believed in him, yet now here you are betraying him because of something his enemey said?"
I don't give them a chance to respond. Instead I leave them to stew in my words and Klaus' own.
I have things to do today. I'd been getting some ideas about biting injured vets and making them part of my pack.
I pull out my phone and see a text from Derek.
found one. Tennessee. Former special opporations, has back problems. age 30. Could be worth checking out.
I smile. this idea came to me a few nights ago while i was hunting. Why not go turn some people who were actuallh fighters? That's what Marcel did. Just turned all the guys in his company. An ingenius idea I can't believe I hadn't thought of.
Time to begin building my army.
