Chapter Seventy Two: Guess Who

Elijah's POV: Syran showed up right in front of a huge crown of people, Hayley and I. He couldn't do anything about it since there were people around, but he knew who he was in front of, the vampire doppelgänger and another vampire. But I guessed wrong, he took out a stake and he was about to use it on Hayley, but there was no chance in hell that I was going to let the love of my life die. And since I cannot be killed I hurried in front of Hayley...

Hayley's POV: Omg! Elijah just got in front of me to stop the stake from killing me! Syran knew who I was and was trying to kill me right there on the spot in front of everyone, but Elijah saved me. I knew that since he's an original he wouldn't actually die, he'd just be out for a little bit, so I pulled the stake out so he'd wake up sooner. I was crying by his side waiting for him to wake up, meanwhile I could hear Syran announcing to everyone that vampires have returned to Saint Falls, but since Elijah couldn't stop me from doing this I took matters into my own hands. I walked quietly up behind Syran, so that he wouldn't hear me, and once I was behind him I got my vampire face on and fangs out, I licked my lips and watched the people freak out seeing the "poor little Hayley" as a vampire. But as soon as he turned around he didn't have enough time to grab another stake. I ripped out his throat without thinking twice. And with his blood running down my face and my neck I watched everyone scream...

Elijah's POV: I just woke up and what I saw was Hayley ripping Syran's throat in front of everyone! I don't regret jumping in front of her to stop from Syran killing her, but I wish I could've stopped her. Although I saw Kaylee and Caroline were the only ones not freaking out, Kaylee must've clarified everything for her so she wouldn't be scared. But I decided that if she was going to scare half the town then I was going to scare her. I put on my scariest vampire face and ran up in front of her. She was definantly surprised because she put on her no emotion face. Then she yelled at me saying not to scare her like that again, I found it very funny, Hayley on the other hand...not so much. But she kissed me in relief that I woke up so soon. Nobody complained about that! However I realized something, out of all the 500 years I've been alive, this was the first time I've ever got staked. I've daggered my siblings a bunch of times. But I've never been daggered or staked, and I'd do it a million more times to save Hayley's life. But then I got to thinking, the curse, then Hunters curse! Hayley would be stuck with it. And it didn't take long after Hayley was celebrating me being alive and Syran being dead for her to notice it too. She realized she killed the hunter and that's when you could see the terrified look in her eyes...

Hayley's POV: I just killed a...a Hunter! And I knew the curse wasn't just a myth because I started feeling really weird, like some sort of cold breeze as if someone was haunting me. Then I saw him, I saw Syran, alive, but that was impossible, he's laying dead right next to me...wait a minute, this is the hallucinations that I'm seeing as part of the curse. As long as I can remember that and keep that in my head the hallucinations will hopefully stay out...

Klaus's POV: Elijah, Hayley, Caroline and Kaylee came rushing into the house. I was wondering what had happened, so I asked Kaylee and Caroline (I obviously figured out that Caroline knew everything now) they told me that Syran was dead. I was really happy until they told me who killed him, it was Hayley...she killed Syran and now she had the curse to deal with! I didn't want to ruin whatever Elijah was doing so I sat in the living room with Kaylee and Caroline waiting until one or the other came out to tell us something...

Elijah's POV: I sat Hayley down on my bed and tried to keep her focused, I wanted her to focus on me because if she wasn't thinking about how she killed the Hunter than she wouldn't be cursed with it for very long. I know this because I had the curse once too. It eventually just went away but now I know that it was because another hunter took over. Anyway, she wouldn't just focus on me, she kept looking everywhere else and yelling or just saying weird stuff and saying to stop and leave her alone. This is the hallucinations talking to her. She has no control. Our best bet is to lock her up and hope we find another hunter soon...
