Anna was downing an entire bottle of champagne as Rebekah shopped for clothes.

"There has to be more to this dress." The blonde deadpanned.

"There's not." Klaus told her.

"So women in the 21st century dress like prostitutes, then. You know, I got dirty looks for wearing trousers." Rebekah said as she looked in the mirror.

Anna snickered, "Times change, Bekah."

"I can see that. And what is this music? It sounds like a cable car accident." Rebekah scrunched up her features in disgust.

"It's dance music." Stefan told the vampire.

"People dance to this?" the girl asked.

Stefan nodded his head, Anna sighed as she took another sip from the bottle.

"Are we done?" Klaus impatiently asked.

"And why are you so grumpy?" the blonde asked her older brother.

"I needed one thing from you for Anna to find out why my hybrids are dying, one thing. Your necklace. And you lost it." Klaus muttered in frustration.

"I didn't lose it. It's just been missing for 90 years." Rebekah retorted.

"I'm going to get some fresh air." Anna spoke as she set down the bottle and walked out of the store.

The girl leaned against an alleyway waiting for a vampire to pass by. Annalise smirked to herself when she saw Stefan.

She vamp sped towards the vampire grabbing him by the neck and throwing him onto the ground in the alleyway.

Stefan groaned as Anna approached him, "What do you know about the necklace?"

"What are you talking about?" Stefan faked being confused.

"Oh come on, everyone can tell your hiding something Stefan, with the difference that Rebekah and Klaus are giving you the benefit of the doubt, I on the other hand couldn't care less about you. So start talking."

Stefan panted as he stood back up, "I don't know anything about that necklace." he lied.

"Bullshit" Anna said as she broke the vampires knee. Stefan yelled in pain.

"I swear! I swear I don't know anything." the vampire panted, lying through his teeth.

Anna kicked the vampire back with her foot. "You best not be lying to me Stefan, because if you are, Klaus won't be your only problem to deal with."

The girl left the vampire there and walked back to her two friends.

Anna found the two Mikaelson siblings in Gloria's bar yet Gloria was nowhere to be seen.

"Let's all take a seat in the back, I can try to perform a spell to locate the necklace." Anna told the two.

Klaus grinned.

The three surround a table when Stefan walked in.

"You left us." Rebekah said.

"Yeah, sorry. Retail therapy was making my head explode." Stefan sighed.

"Tell me about it." Klaus muttered.

"What's she doing?" Stefan asked, looking at Anna who was muttering a spell.

"She's failing" Klaus sighed dramatically.

"Very hard to find something when you have nothing to go on. Now shut it Nik or a pencil will go through your eye." Annalise snapped.

Stefan chuckled, "That goes for you as well, bunny eater." Anna added making Klaus laugh.

"Use me. I only wore it for a thousand years." Rebekah told the brunette.

"See? Now Bekah is actually helpful unlike the two of you."

Anna looked at the blonde, "Now give me your hand Beks." she said holding out her own.

Rebekah gave the heretic her hand.

"She's uh, she's looking for the necklace, huh?" Stefan said more saying than asking.

Klaus nodded.

Anna dropped Rebekahs hand and looked at Stefan and Klaus.

"I found it"

Rebekah grinned, "So where is it?"

"It doesn't work like that Beks. I get images. There's a girl who appears a bit blurry so I can't see her face with her friends." Anna told them.

"Yes, a dead girl with dead friends, if I don't get my necklace back." Rebekah huffed.

"Well, I'll have to dive back in to get the details." the heretic said.

"So dive, little one." Klaus told the girl.

"I would need more time Nik, and space."

"Fine, just don't take the whole day." The hybrid told his friend.

"Hey, you know, why don't we just come back later. I'm hungry anyway. I'll let you pick who we eat." Stefan suggested.

Anna really disliked the vampire.

Anna served herself a glass of whiskey, the girl sighed.

She remembered the movie she watched about people wanting to find immortality. The girl found it funny how people could wish such a curse upon themselves.

That was something she envied in humans, their humanity.

Her humanity was ripped away from her. For years she hated herself for it, but it wasn't the girls fault what happened.

Klaus slid into the seat next to her, "Drinking your sorrows away?"

"I'll finish the spell Nik, don't worry." Anna sighed.

"The spell can wait a bit, are you alright love?" Klaus asked with genuine concern for his friend.

Annalise smiled to herself. "Thank you Nik. I'm fine."

"Well if ever need to talk, you know i'm here little one." the hybrid told her.

"I know." she smiled.

"Where's Rebekah?" the girl asked.

"With Stefan I presume."

Anna stood, "Let's go, I don't trust him."

"Whatever puts you at ease." Klaus said and stood as the two walked to the warehouse.

The two walked inside where Rebekah and Stefan stood in front of each other.

"What's going on?" Klaus asked the two.

"Something's wrong. He was asking about Michael. He's not with us, Nik. I can sense it." Rebekah told her brother.

"Ah finally, I thought I was going to have to write in big letters for you two." Anna crossed her arms.

Stefan looked panicked, "She's wrong. Klaus-" but he couldn't finish as Anna snapped his neck using her magic.

"I've been wanting to do that for awhile." she smiled.

Annalise yawned as they passed the welcome back to Mystic Falls sign.

"I want to sleep." the heretic whined.

"We're already here, be patient." Klaus said from the drivers seat.

"Yeah yeah." she pouted.

"I'm starving." Rebekah also complained.

"If you two would quit your whining, we would get there much quicker." Klaus told the two girls who both rolled their eyes.

"I forgot how much of a nightmare you two are together." the hybrid muttered.

"Heard that" the two voices synced making them laugh.

The truck came to a sudden stop.

"Anna, you go to the school and wait for me there." Klaus told the girl.

Anna groaned, "Already"

"Yes, now go on." Klaus said.

Sighing, the girl got out of the truck and made her way towards the high school.

Here we go again.
