*Skipped Kill or Be Killed. That episode was more of a Caroline dealing with being Katherine's little minion and saving Stefan and Damon from her mom. Not really a place to put Claire and even the smaller parts wouldn't be worth it. So, onto Plan B.*

Claire walked up to the Salvatore house whistling to herself impressed. She waltzed up to the house and knocked on the door. She was slightly surprised but pleased to see Damon answering it. He looks at her curiously.

"What are you doing here, Shortcake?" He asked.

"I'm here to see my mom, heard you got her in the cellars. I want to talk to her." She said. Damon shrugged and let her in. He went to lead her to her mom but she grabbed his arm. He turned to her frowning his eyebrows once again. "Do you remember what I said in the Grill when I stabbed you with a pencil?"

"What are you getting at?" He asked. She gave him an identical smirk that she sent to Mason a few days ago. She gripped his arm tighter and started to siphon from him. He groaned lightly at fist before he fell to his knees.

"I told you I would do worse if you ever hurt Caroline again" Claire growled angrily. "You tried to kill her at the night of the carnival, you almost took my twin from me" She snapped gripping him even tighter. He yelled in pain. She let him suffer for a few more moments before letting him go. "Huh, guess this works on all supernatural beings" Claire nodded to herself relishing in the feeling of the power flowing through her veins.

"What the fuck?" Damon asked looking at her recovering a lot faster than Mason.

"Next time, I won't stop." Claire snapped. "You should go feed, you look a little parched." Damon growled and went to attack her. "Ah ah ah" She said shaking her finger at him. "I'm a lot stronger than you think" She warned. "Be a good little boy and skedaddle" She smirked smugly. Damon growled and quickly left.

"I have to say, Angel" Henrik said coming into view. Claire instantly lit up. "You are very sexy when you overpower people." He told her. She shrugged.

"I got back at him for trying to kill Caroline and I get to see you" She said walking up to him.

"How did you know it would work?" He asked her. She shrugged.

"I didn't. I figured if it worked on Mason it would work on him." She said stopping in front of him. Her arms draped around his neck and he gripped her hips. "If it didn't work then all he would know is that I grabbed his arm like a weirdo" She said shrugging.

"As much as I loved seeing you piss him off, please don't do it again" He pleaded. "Damon is unstable and unpredictable. I don't trust him around you and I don't need you pissing him off. I know you're strong but you're not trained. It would be easy for him to kill you and I can't have that." He said. She smiled at him.

"Well, I'll try to not piss him off until I have my knight here to protect me" She told him. He grinned in approval. "I love you" She whispered to him sincerely. His eyes lit up and he gripped her tighter.

"Screw it" Henrik whispered pulling her face to his going to connect their lips when he disappears. Claire whined.

"Damn it" She pouted. She released an annoyed sigh. "Get my hopes up why don't you, ghost boy?" She muttered as she went to go find her mom. Despite her teasing tone, she felt the ache in her chest increase. She jogged down the steps and smiled finding her. "Hey mom."

"Claire" She said standing up. "Did you know about Caroline?" She asked.

"Of course, we're twins" Claire told her. Liz huffed shaking her head. "Why are you acting like this mom?" She asked. "This is Caroline, it doesn't matter that she's a vampire."

"Yes it does" Liz said. "Caroline is gone, Claire."

"No she's not" Claire shook her head. "If anything she's more Caroline than she's ever been" She said shrugging.

"She a vampire" Liz deadpans. Claire shrugs.

"So, I'm a witch" Claire tells her. Liz frowns her eyebrows.

"You're a what?" Liz asked.

"A witch... A siphoner if we're being exact" Liz looked more confused. "I can't create my own magic so I take it from other supernatural creatures" She said. Liz averted her gaze. "What?" Claire asked noticing the awkwardness. "What is it?"

"Nothing, it's nothing" Liz shook her head.

"Mom" Claire growled gripping the handles. "What. Is. It." She snapped. Liz sighed looking at her.

"Did you know it's possible for twins to have two different parents?" Liz said. Claire frowns her eyebrows. "Or more specifically, two different fathers."

"What are you saying mom?" Claire asked stepping away from the bars. Liz moved closer.

"Noah South" Claire frowns her eyebrows never having heard that name before. Liz sighs and rubs her face. "Bill didn't leave me just because he's gay" She told her. "I cheated on him with Noah."

"Mom" Claire whispers shaking her head.

"He must have been a witch or something" Liz told her. Claire backs up to the wall and leans against it. Bill, the man who raised her, isn't her true father. Some man she's never heard about until now is. "I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier." Liz apologized.

"Where.. Where is he?" She asked looking at Liz. She gave her a sympathetic smile.

"He died a few years ago, Baby." Claire slid down to the ground trying to take in all this new information. "He got into a bar fight and it didn't end well for him."

Claire sat on the floor thinking about everything. Bill isn't her biological father. Noah South is and he's dead. It was two simple things that took Claire a long time to wrap her head around.

"Claire... Claire... Claire!" Liz shouted as she stood up and left the cellars. She got into her car and drove to the cemetery.

"Noah South... Noah South" Claire mutters walking past grave stone after grave stone. "Noah South... Noah South... No-" She stops when she finds it. "Noah South." She reads. "April 18th, 1970 - January 9th, 2005. Son. Husband. Father. Friend. You will be missed but never forgotten" She reads.

Her eyes then went to the words 'Father'. They couldn't be talking about her. They couldn't have known her. They never reached out. This would mean she has more family, more siblings.

"I really wish you were here, Henrik" Claire whispers.

"Hey, Baby" Claire wakes and jumps up. Caroline stands as well taking a few steps back.She frowned her eyebrows when she notices it's dark out. "You know, falling asleep in the cemetery, such an Elena move" Caroline teases. Claire smiles slightly before looking back at the grave stone. "Noah South?"

"My dad" Claire whispered. Caroline's head snapped to her. "Mom had an affair. He was a witch which is how I am" She explained. "He's a father, a husband... I have a whole other family out there that I never knew about and who knows if they even know about me... Who knows if he even knew about me."

"Who told you?" Caroline asked in complete shock.

"Mom" Claire told her. "After I told her I was a witch... How did you find me?" She asked looking at her.

"Mom told me you'd be here... Right after I compelled her." Claire gives her a small smile. "And it sucks because today we actually got along. She was there and we talked and it was like everything was normal. She accepted me." She muttered tears in her eyes.

"So, why did you compel her?" Claire asked softly. Caroline let out a large sigh.

"Because even though she accepts me she'll never accept the others." Caroline whispered. "It wouldn't be right." Claire smiled at her sister.

"Come here" Claire whispered hugging her sister tightly. "No matter what happens, we'll always have each other." Claire promised.

"BTBFF?" Caroline asked pulling away. She held her pinkie up and Claire smirked. She linked pinkie's.

"BTBFF" Claire nods and the two of them press their heads together. "I love you, Care-bear" She whispers.

"I love you too, Baby Face" Caroline smirked. Claire grinned and hugged her tightly again. "Come on, lets get going. I'm sure Madelyn misses her mother."

"Not as much as I miss her." Caroline smirked and picked her up before zooming home. "So" Claire said after putting Madelyn to bed. "I found out I have a dead dad, how was your day?" She asked Caroline sitting on the bed.

"Well, I'm making progress with Bonnie. I pulled Stefan out of a Vervain well-"

"What were you guys going at a vervain well?" Claire asked.

"Well we didn't know there was vervain in it" Caroline told her obviously. "And we were looking for the moonstone" Claire nodded in understanding. "So, I'm assuming that since you spent the day in a cemetery you didn't help set up the masquerade dance?" Caroline assumed.

"Sorry" Claire muttered sheepishly. Caroline shrugged.

"You get a pass, this time" Caroline said pointing at her teasingly. Claire smirked laughing a bit. "But you're still going right?" Caroline asked.

"Yep, I have Sarah coming over and I'm going with you." Claire reassured.

"Good, I don't think I can go through this without you." Caroline muttered still not completely confident about being around a big group of people. She knew Claire could keep her in check, keep her anchored.

"Yes you can. Caroline you can do this with or without me. You're a strong person." Claire said.

"No, I'm an insecure maniac" Caroline corrected her.

"Ok, an insecure maniac who would do everything she could to not hurt someone, to keep herself in control all the while looking out for her friends and family." Claire added. Caroline gave her a small smile. "Caroline, you're a kick ass person. You're gonna be just fine" She said confidently.

"Thank, Baby" Caroline muttered. Claire shrugged smirking. "Are you gonna try and find your.. other family?" Caroline asked. Claire sighed.

"I don't know." She said honestly. Caroline pressed her lips together and nodded. "Hey" She said nudging her sister. Caroline looked at her. "If I do look for them, you'll still be my twin sister. We shared a womb for almost 8 months and practically spent every second after that together" She said. Caroline smiled. "No matter what I find, that won't change. It won't change the fact that you're one of the two most important things in the world to me. I love you Caroline and I always will" She reassured.

"Aww! I love you too" Caroline cooed and hugged Claire. Claire smiled and hugged her back tighter.

"BTBFF?" Claire muttered. Caroline smiled pulling back. They linked their pinkie's.

"BTBFF" Caroline confirmed pressing her forehead to Claire's. The girls smiled at each other and giggled quietly to themselves.
