Before you start reading this chapter, I want to say this if you never read my other stories or looked at my conversations page... STOP ASKING ME TO UPDATE! This stopped for a while and I appreciated it but now? It's starting again. That's seriously annoying, like writers have a life outside of wattpad. 

I have had a lot going on this month which is why I had to take a step back from writing. The other reason, I have been updating every month ever since I joined wattpad which was over late 2019 and at some point, I'm going to have to take a break! 

If you say, can't wait for the next update or looking forward to it, that's fine. But I swear if I see another comment telling me to please update or update soon, especially on stories that clearly say "On Hold", those comments are getting deleted. I'm not joking because I'm getting tired of it. I am doing the best I can so stop pressuring me!

Same outfits from last chapter!

"Pleasure meeting you again but in my own body this time." Klaus smiles and holds his hand. "Thank you for saving me-"

"Yeah, it's not a pleasure to meet you pup. And technically I wasn't saving you. I was protecting Alaric. You did steal his body." Celine smacks his hand away, shocking Klaus and causing Anthony to cover up his laugh with a cough. "Now can we get to more important things? Anthony, due to you being here, you already know about what the connection is between you and my daughter."

"Yes, ma'am." Anthony nods. "But if you know about it, why haven't you-"

"I knew about it way before the two of you even knew. All the witches did... So I thought it was best that it be talked about between you two. It's your relationship and you two should decide what you want, not let others decide for you... I'll go along with whatever my baby girl wants. Now go on and talk to her, I need to talk to your father."

"Thank you, Ms. Bennett." Anthony smiles.

"Call me Celine." As soon as Anthony gets up from his seat, Celine grabs his wrist. "Boy, you treat my daughter right. Otherwise, I'll get my broom."

Anthony nods and gives her a small smile. "No need to worry. I could never hurt her."

Celine stares at him for a moment before letting him go. After he leaves, she turns back to Klaus.

"Well...this isn't how I thought our introduction would go-"

"Shut up. Your son came here for my daughter but you came here for the doppelganger. Now let me warn you, pup. You better not throw a temper tantrum if things don't turn out your way. Otherwise, you will end up on that pool table over there and be saying hello to that cue stick. Do you understand?" She asks but doesn't receive a response. "Uh, are you going to answer me? Your son has more manners than you."

"You just told me to shut up. You know for saying my son has manners but you are being quite rude-" 

"I'm being rude?" She scoffs. "You come into my town unannounced. You stole my friend's body-"

"I prefer to say borrowed." Klaus smirks which falters at the glare she throws at him.

"I had to stop my niece from making another stupid decision and beat up Elena's sidepiece. And lastly? You give me no notice of having our kids meet! So whose really the rude one, huh? Now do you understand what will happen if you-" She gives him an intimidating stare while slowly standing up.

"Alright, alright! I understand!" He puts his hands on her shoulders which she smacks away before sitting back down. "Look, I would never do anything that would jeopardize my son's relationship with your daughter... He's waited so long to finally meet her in person." He says before shifting his focus over to the kids.

"So this mystery guy you've had dreams of since you were kids... Why did you guys ever tell me about this?" Jeremy asks.

"...Because you're you. Is that enough of an explanation for you?" Eun Mi replies with a sweet smile.

He sighs. "...You're infuriating."

"You love me!" Eun Mi teases him while pinching his cheeks.

"Stop it!" He pries her hands off of him and takes one of her onion rings, eating it for himself.

"Did you just... Did you just eat my onion ring?!" She yells before taking some of the whipped cream from her milkshake and wiping it on his nose.  

Kathleen giggles at her friend's antics. "To be honest, he only appeared in my dreams. I thought he was just a part of my imagination."

"Yeah but what's he doing with Klaus? The same guy trying to kill my sister." Jeremy says while cleaning his nose.

"...I think Klaus isn't all that bad. While he was in Alaric's body, he made me a promise that no one would get hurt. Bonnie is still alive and I think that it may all be thanks to Anthony."

"You know me so well." They all look up to see Anthony standing nearby them. "I'll tell you everything."

"We'll leave you two to talk." Jeremy says before grabbing Eun Mi's hand and standing up from their seat. "...If Kathy thinks you're not a bad guy then I believe her... Don't mess up." Jeremy tells him, receiving a nod in return.

"Before I go..." Eun Mi takes her sunglasses from the back of her jeans and puts them on. "What are your intentions with my best friend?" She asks causing Jeremy to cover her mouth and drag her out the restaurant. "Wait, a minute! He has to be interrogated and I need another hot wing! Let me go, you monster!"

Anthony laughs while taking a seat. "Eun Mi and your mom are just as you described them."

"It would be good for your own sake to never piss them off. Now are you going to explain to me how you're here and tell me about your relationship with Klaus?"

He lets out a deep sigh. "Kathy, I think I should start off by saying this... You've always known me as Anthony but my full name is Antonius Tobias Mikaelson. Klaus is my adoptive father."

"Wait... So when I told you about the supernatural drama in my life; finding out vampires and werewolves exist, finding out I was a witch and even Elena being a doppelganger... Did you ever tell Klaus?" She questions him with narrowed eyes.

"Only some things but not the part about the doppelganger... I never told him."

"Why not?"

"Because..." He sighs. "Because I didn't want to use you or make you think it was your fault and end up blaming yourself. Word got around that the Salvatore brothers hanging around with a Katherine lookalike. When he found out and questioned me about it, I explained myself and he wasn't mad. But it's not like he can ever get mad at me, he loves me too much." He says the last part with a grin. "We've been best friends for years, Kathy. I know what you've been through and didn't want to put you through anymore pain."

She stares at him for a moment until picking up a onion ring. "...Take this." He gives her a confused look before taking it. "You get one point for being honest."

"I'm always honest with you." He says with a smirk before eating the onion ring. "Now about how I'm real. Back to when we were kids and our dreams of each other had gotten frequent, my dad took me to a witch and don't freak out when I tell you this but we're actually soulmates."

"...Excuse you? Soulmates? You mean the kind where two people are meant for each other and destined to be together? That type of soulmate?"

"Yep." He nods.

"Well..." She sighs. "I guess Mimi is going to be jealous."

He chortles. "That's what you have to say? You know you're taking this in very well."

"We grew up together, Anthony. I know you well enough to know if you're lying to me or not. Besides from what you've told me, it makes sense to why we're connected... You've always been the only one to understand my need for buttercup cakes." She tells him making him laugh.

"...It's really good to finally see you in real life, Buttercup." He says with a big smile.

"The feeling is mutual... We'll talk more about the soulmate thing another time but for right now I need you to stand up." She tells him as she gets up from her seat.

He gives her a confused look and proceeds to stand. He is then surprised when she wraps her arms around his waist.

"What's this for?" He asks as he hugs her back.

"...I'm glad that you're here... You'll still make me buttercup cupcakes, right?"

He laughs. "Have I told you that you're even more gorgeous in person?"

"Hey, don't start thinking that compliments will work on me."

"Uh, you sure about that?" He asks with a grin. "Because in our dreams, I specifically remember you always blushing whenever I called you cute, beautiful, adorable-"

"Shut up!" She says before hiding her blushing face against his chest.

He laughs once more. "Okay, okay. I'll stop teasing you... By the way, I'll give you as many hugs and cupcakes as you want."

Unknown to the two, their parents with them with a smile.

While drinking a blood bag, Katherine hears someone unlocking the front door. When she turns around, she sees Alaric entering the apartment.

"Look who's dumb enough to come back." She rolls her eyes before placing her blood bag on the living room table.

"Well, somebody had to invite him in." He nods his head back, gesturing to Damon. "Would you like to come in, Damon?"

As soon as Damon enters, Katherine vamp speeds, tackling him against the wall.

"What are you doing?! Are you trying to get yourself killed?!" She snaps.

"Actually, came here to give you this." He takes out a vial. "Vervain. Your salvation."

"Don't need it. I'm good here." She tells him after letting him go and earning a confused look from him.

"Uh... I got it from here, Ric."

"You sure?"

"Yeah, only one of us needs to get blamed for this. Get back in the house. Keep Elena from handing herself over."

"...Okay."

After Alaric leaves, Katherine sits on the couch as Damon still stares at her with confusion.

"So what exactly would you guys get blamed for?" She asks before sipping on her blood bag again.

"Before we get to that, why don't you want this?" He asks, jiggling the vial. "You could get out of here."

She shrugs. "I could but why not wait till everything is over with?"

"...You're already on vervain. How?"

"Because of me."

Both vampires see Anthony entering the apartment and closing the door behind with a smirk on his face.

"You're that kid who was with Klaus earlier."

"And you're Damon Salvatore. I would say it's nice meeting you but from the things that I've heard about you and your brother, I don't like either of you." Katherine laughs and Damon glares at him. "Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Antonius but most people call me Anthony. You don't need to know what my connection is with Klaus just yet. Since you're here, that means you're trying to stir up trouble again. Let me guess. Trying to give Katherine vervain so that she could leave because you believe she's the vampire that Klaus will use in the sacrifice." Anthony states as he walks towards Damon.

"Smart kid."

"Thank you. I've been told I got my brains from my dad." Both Anthony and Katherine chuckle. "But you don't need to worry about Ms. Pierce here. She's not Klaus' target... I'm sure that you're looking for the werewolf too."

"Well..." Damon smirks. "Dead werewolf equals no ritual. So if you would kindly tell me where they are, I very much appreciate it. What did he promise you, huh? I can give you a better deal than that hybrid freak-" Damon is cut off when Anthony wraps his hand around his neck.

"Would you like to know something? Usually my attitude depends on who the person is and you're in a very bad spot right now. So listen to what I'm about to tell you because I'm not going to repeat myself... You're not going to find the vampire or the werewolf. Klaus is getting the doppelganger right at this very moment... There's no stopping it because the sacrifice is happening tonight. So don't cause any unnecessary trouble."

Anthony throws Damon across the room while Katherine is watching the scene with an impressed look on her face. The front door opens and they see Klaus coming in.

"I wasn't aware you'd been invited in." Klaus says to Damon.

Damon groans as he gets up. "Where's Elena?"

"I've heard about you. The crazy, impulsive vampire in love with his brother's girl... I knew one of you would try to stop me. It was a just a 50/50 guess on who."

"Where is she?!"

" I sent her off with with my witch." Klaus answers.

"I've come here to tell you that you have to postpone the ritual."

"Didn't we already have this conversation back at the grill? And by the looks of things, I'm sure that Anthony here just reminded you." Klaus chuckles.

"Yeah but now it's time for plan b." Damon vamp speeds behind Anthony and grabs his neck.

"Damon, don't be stupid!" Katherine yells.

"If you move, I'll snap his neck. This kid is important to you, isn't he? Any chance he may be the werewolf? Or something else? Either way, if you don't let Elena go-"

Klaus begins laughing maniacally causing Damon to glare at him.

"What's so funny?"

"...You got the werewolf part right but I'm not the one being sacrificed." Anthony answers for him as his eyes begin to glow a golden orange color...

Plot twist! Instead of Tyler biting Damon, I had Anthony do it!

Aww! If you remember from the first chapter that Kathleen told Anthony if he was real, she would give him a big hug and tell him how glad she would be to have him there and she would want buttercup cupcakes.

We stan Jeremy respecting the oc's decisions and a protective Eun Mi!

So Anthony vs Damon? Whatcha think? I think that was really my favorite part to write this chapter. 

I always planned on Anthony being a werewolf but I will say that he is a hybrid as well but I'm still deciding what else. Any suggestions?

I wanted Caroline to appear but she and Matt were busy helping Tyler with his transformation. There were a few more things that I wanted to fit into this chapter but it wasn't working so I'll wait another time.

Another thing, I think some of you should not be supporting Celine and Klaus romantically, considering their kids are the main couple of the series.
