Chapter 34: Ch. 33
Mystic Falls Interlude (Night of the Sacrifice) (The events of this segment are happening during Klaus and Vali's brawl through the forest.)
After watching his half-brothers tumble off into the woods in a blur of fur and claws Elijah moved over to Elena's lifeless body and picked her up bridal style. He took a moment to feel sympathy for the poor teenage girl that bore such a close resemblance to two of his past loves before flashing away from the sight of the ritual.
He arrived at the Gilbert House in no time at all, and handed the body over to a grim faced Grayson Gilbert as Miranda sobbed in the background. Grayson couldn't help his anger, despite the fact that he knew the man before him was ancient and powerful, "So this is what he needed her kept safe for. This is why he came to Mystic Falls. She was always going to be sacrificed, wasn't she?"
Elijah played with his suit's cuffs for a moment as he considered how best to respond to that. Putting one hand in a pocket, he gestured at Elena with the other, "She is not dead. Not permanently anyways. The ritual is complete and my brothers are unbound. However, Vali told me her death is not part of his plans. She will recover by the morning."
Miranda's tears are stopping as she processes this and Grayson looks stupefied. Elijah finishes giving his advice quickly so he can depart, "When she wakes up, all compulsions put on her will be gone. She will be distraught. You should try to be nearby."
Grayson swallows thickly and nods in thanks. Elijah is gone in a flash and the Gilberts close their door to the dark night.

Mystic Falls (A few days after the ritual)
Richard, Mason, and Tyler Lockwood had been called to the forest by the werewolf pack that had been living near Mystic Falls for almost five years now under Vali's orders. The ritual had supposedly happened only three days ago on the night of the full moon.
The wolves unfortunately could not be there given exactly what happened to werewolves on the full moon, but the Lockwoods had expected their curse to break during the night if the ritual was successful. It had not and that left them all feeling confused, worried, and more than a little angry. They were expecting the wolves in the forest to be in the same state, but as they approached the Pack's normal camping site, they found a huge party going on.
Richard was the one to take the lead as the Alpha caught sight of them and sauntered over, a grin on her face. He frowns at her grin and gestures at the party before asking, "What is this?"
The Alpha blinks, smile faltering only a bit before raising an eyebrow, "What do you think it is? We're celebrating Mayor. Hope that's not against any of your town's silly rules."
Mason steps forward, being a bit more level headed, "So then it worked? You wouldn't be celebrating if the ritual wasn't successful right?"
The Alpha turns to him, smiling, "Of course it was successful, you doubted Vali? He would have settled for nothing less than the curse being broken, and it has been."
Mason smiles back, clearly happy with the news, "I'm glad to hear that, we all are I'm sure. I suppose we expected the transformation to revert after the curse was broken, but we ended up spending the entire night as wolves."
She blinks again, and her smile falls from her face, "You don't… right. You three need to come with me."
Any relief the Lockwoods had begun to feel was erased by her sudden disquieted attitude as she led them through the party to a large circus tent and motioned them inside. In the tent they found a group of five of Vali's archivists, all working with what seemed to be two sources of blood. The Head Archivist looked up and frowns, "We are not ready yet Rylla, you know the turning will not happen until after the sun sets."
Rylla shakes her head and points with her thumb back at the Lockwoods, "Not here bout that, I get the whole time thing. I invited these three to the party tonight to celebrate and participate, but it turns out they don't know all the facts. Figured you could tell it better than me."
The older woman looks to the three men with a piercing gaze, "Of course, the Lockwoods. Tell me, what did Master Vali promise you concerning the Curse?"
Tyler looks confused while Richard frowns severely in thought. Mason, having received the pitch last responds promptly, "He promised that he'd break it. That after it was gone, we'd have the choice whether we shifted or not."
The archivist smiles grimly, "And you do have a choice to make now. The Curse of the Sun and the Moon was, to put it simply, a myth."
Richard snarls, stepping forward, "What? What does that even mean?!"
His outburst causes Rylla to step inbetween him and the archivists, holding up her hands, "Hey, hey. Freak out once you hear everything."
The Head Archivist continues easily, not even phased by Richard's threatening posture, "The Curse of the Sun and the Moon was created several centuries earlier by Master Vali's brothers, Lord Klaus and Lord Elijah, in an effort to focus both the werewolves and the vampires on helping them break the real curse. The real curse was put on Master Vali and Lord Klaus alone by the Original Witch. It bound their werewolf halves and left them weakened and no longer whole."
She pauses to make sure the Lockwoods are listening, before she finishes, "That is the curse that was broken three nights ago on the Full Moon. And the choice before you now, that many of the werewolves outside have already made, is whether you are ready to control your own transformation… by becoming a hybrid."
Mason blinks at that, clearly not following the explanation that well, "What? Like Vali? How does that work, he said he couldn't turn werewolves."
He receives a grim smile in reply, "He could not while cursed. With the Original Witch's magic undone, he can now make as many hybrids as he wants. This is what you are offered. As a hybrid, you will never have to turn into a wolf again, you will be stronger than most vampires, and your bite will be poisonous to them. You will live forever."
Mason looks to the female Alpha's who's been watching the entire exchange, "And you've agreed to this? Everyone outside has agreed to this?"
Rylla scoffs, turning her chin up, "Of course, we were raised with the knowledge that our generation would be the one who would ascend to join Vali. This party is one of many taking place across North and South America as we speak, and by the end of the night, there will be thousands of hybrids. If I could, I would ascend tonight myself, but I have to wait."
Tyler finally speaks up, brow furrowed, "Why do you have to wait?"
Rylla coughs, suddenly seeming less like a powerful Alpha and more like a blushing schoolgirl, "We have been told Vali may be able to have children now that the curse is broken. I am hoping to put forth my name for consideration, and we are not sure if hybrid females will be able to have children."
All three males look rather disturbed at that, so the Archivist jumps in again, "You have until the sun sets to decide. We will begin once it is dark and if you do not wish to gain control over your curse, you must be gone by then."
Rylla nods, "Thank you Archivist." She then turns to the Lockwoods and begins to browbeat them out of the tent, "You've got a couple hours to decide. For now, feel free to enjoy the party! You have just as much right to be here as we do."
She then leaves the Lockwood males to their own devices. Richard and Mason turn to one another and Mason frowns, "What are we going to do? Controlling our transformation is one thing… becoming half vampire is another thing entirely."
Before Richard could answer his brother, Tyler spoke up, "I'm taking it. Being an immortal hybrid can't possibly be more painful than being forced to break every bone in my body every full moon."
Mason frowns at his nephew, and opens his mouth to reply only for Richard to interject with a nod, "I am as well. Carol is already a vampire, and I don't wish to force her to watch me grow old. I don't want to be forced to watch her stay the same while I wither away and die."
Richard smiles grimly, "This is the best case scenario for all of us."
Mason narrows his eyes at that, "I'm not so sure… I have to think about this."
He walks away and Tyler turns to his father, "He'll take it. He has to. Anything is better than being trapped by this curse."
Richard frowns as he watches his younger brother's retreating back, "We can only hope so."
In the end Mason did do it, sticking around when the sun had set and everyone was gathered in the center of the camp. Lined up, one by one the werewolves drank from a goblet of Vali's blood. To the side mats had been laid out, and those who drank removed their tops and lay down upon them. As they did so, the Alpha came around and slid a knife into the heart of each one in a single motion.
The entire thing felt less like a ceremony and more like an assembly line to the Lockwoods, though those around them seemed much more invested in the ritualistic elements than they were. Halfway through the pack drinking Vali's blood, those who drank first began to wake up and were offered different blood entirely, in a much smaller quantity.
Everyone was treated to the sight of these newly made hybrids drinking the blood and stabilizing, their sets of dual fangs coming out and their eyes turning a gold black. Once they were done, they went back to partying, and within two hours, everyone who would turn was turned and reveling in their new found freedom.
The archivists packed up and quietly left as the now hybrid pack celebrated long into the night. The Lockwood males ended up splitting, Mason and Richard wishing to head home to their respective significant others, while Tyler stayed, eventually finding a young brunette named Hayley that peaked his interest.
She'd apparently been orphaned too early to even remember her parents, and her adoptive family knew nothing about the supernatural. When she accidentally killed someone while drunk on a boating trip, her curse triggered and she transformed the first time in the middle of her living room. She was kicked out at the age of thirteen, only to almost instantly be picked up by Rylla and raised by the pack they were now partying with.
Her story was almost tragic, and he was glad he'd had a support structure after he triggered his own curse. She'd apparently tried to run away from the pack more than once in search of her birth parents, but could never quite manage to get out from Rylla's thumb. Hayley seemed to consider her more of an older sister than a jailor though from the way she talked.
After exchanging stories and life experience for hours, it was only to be expected when clothes flew off and Tyler found himself experiencing rough hybrid sex for the first time with a willing partner who was just as fast, strong, and durable as he.

Katerina was a combination of annoyed, frustrated, and horny by this point. Vali was gone now, and she'd never thought he'd just leave her behind once caving into Elijah and letting her go outside the hundred foot tether she'd been on for a hundred and twenty years. But here she was, finding herself alone in Vali's Mystic Falls Mansion with nothing to do.
Well, she wasn't entirely alone. The place was still staffed with vampires who treated her more like a guest than a pet thankfully. But they were all boring when compared to her Master or even Elijah. Throwing herself onto her bed chest first in a fit of frustration, she groaned as she thought of the road trip she was missing out on.
But she hadn't been invited along, and she wasn't going to invite Vali's anger by intruding on whatever he, Klaus, and Elijah were doing now that the curse was broken. She definitely didn't want to draw Klaus' attention to her either. Flopping onto her back she sighed, staring up at the ceiling for several long moments.
Eventually her thoughts turned towards the other day, when Vali had dragged her into a random storage closet, bent her over, and pounded her until she reached not one but four screaming climaxes. Her hands moved over her body and she soon found herself placing a hand under her shirt and down her pants, massaging her breast as she ran her fingers up and down her slit, whimpering.
A few minutes later she was naked and pushing three fingers into her wet entrance as she called Vali's name out. Her thumb worked at her clit and her free hand played with her nipples until each was rock hard. No matter how hard she worked, she couldn't truly replicate the feeling of Vali's hands on her body, of his cock inside her…
It was thinking about that that finally set her over the edge, causing her to open her mouth in a silent scream as she climaxed with thoughts of Vali in her head. She lay back panting, eyes half-lidded as she found herself pouting. She hoped her master came back for her soon. She already missed him. Coming to a decision, she got up off the bed and began getting dressed. She'd go find Vali and watch from afar until whatever family business he was taking care of was done with. Then she'd be there, ready to satisfy his needs.
