After school Caroline and Audrey were starting cheerleading practice on the sidelines while the football players practiced on the field. Audrey was stretching beside Caroline when their coach walked up. "Has anybody seen, Dana?" The two girls shared a look before shrugging at their coach. Of course they knew where she was. Stefan had killed her.

"Sounds like you have an opening on the squad," Rebekah chirped, appearing out of nowhere. Audrey stood up with Caroline and crossed her arms at the blonde original.

"What are you doing?" Caroline hissed. Rebekah ignored Caroline and began to stretch. "Hey. Hey, you can't just come here and infiltrate all of our lives," Caroline scoffed as she stopped Rebekah from stretching.

"I'm only interested in yours," Rebekah remarked, smirking at the cheerleader. "Your popularity, your spunk," She glanced back at the football field. "Maybe even your boyfriend,"

"Rebekah, why are you doing this? Don't you have better things to do?" Audrey sighed. She didn't want to get in the middle of the two girls but she knew Caroline would do something stupid.

"I thought you'd be happy for me. We can finally start doing things together, since we're friends and all," She smiled at the brunette.

"Last I checked, friends don't throw each other into walls and almost kill them," Audrey said raising an eyebrow. Rebekah's face fell.

"I wasn't trying to hurt you. You jumped in front of your sister and I may have overreacted. I'm not used to being around humans," Rebekah explained. "I like you Audrey. I just hope you can forgive me,"

"Oh my god. An original is actually apologizing," Audrey teased playfully. "Now, if only your brother could do the same,"

"Please. Hell would have to freeze over for Nik to do anything of the sort," Rebekah sneered rolling her eyes at the thought of her brother. "He only apologized to me because he knows how I can be,"

"True," Audrey smirked, earning a glare from the original. When Audrey turned to talk to Caroline she noticed she was gone. Her eyes went to the football field where her best friend seemed to be yelling at her boyfriend. "Hey, lay off Caroline okay? This is her last year of school and it's already been pretty shitty,"

"I can't help that she's sparked my interest," Rebekah said innocently. When she saw that a group of guys were watching her, she decided to show off. She took off, doing a front handspring and landing in the splits. The guys cheered for her but her eyes landed on Caroline and Tyler. She waved flirtatiously at them. Audrey, who had been watching, wanted to lower the Originals ego a little bit. She took a running start before doing a roundoff back handspring, back tuck, and ending it with a full twisting layout. Years of gymnastics had given her the strength to do all of that, but because of her recent head injury she had major whiplash. The guys watching them cheered louder and Rebekah frowned at her friend. Audrey shrugged innocently.

"Sorry Beks, you just inspired me," She joked stretching her arms above her head. Rebekah smirked and stood up to nudge her.

"Go Elena, go Elena. Go, go, go, Elena!" Audrey cheered as her sister lifted weights. Elena laughed and tried to continue lifting but her sister was making it impossible.

"My hot little cheerleader is looking very-," Damon began as he walked into the room.

"Don't even finish that sentence," Audrey said cutting him off. He smirked at her as he continued his strides to the sisters. "But I will say that your sexiness is at an all time high today,"

"That's no fair. You can say sexy things about me but I can't do the same to you?" Damon fake pouted.

"I know how you were going to finish that sentence, Damon Salvatore," Audrey pointed out, narrowing her eyes at her friend. He challenged her glare with a teasing look. His eyes flickered to Elena who was ignoring the duo and trying to keep lifting.

"What? Are you going to bench press a vampire?" Damon teased walking to her side.

"Do you actually know what's happening right now? Stefan called me a human blood bag. He's a completely different person," Elena explained angrily. Damon ignored her and pressed down on the bar she was lifting. "Ah! What are you doing?!"

"Helping you out," Damon remarked.

"Damon!" Elena shouted trying to push the bar back up.

"Come on, Buffy!" Damon shouted back. Audrey covered her mouth to hide her laughter but she was failing miserably.

"Stop it!" Elena yelled, letting go of the bar. Damon held it up with one hand and placed it back on the rack. "Like one obnoxious Salvatore isn't bad enough," She slid to the end of the bench and sat up.

"You called. I'm here. What's your plan, oh warrior princess?" Damon asked in his usual sarcastic tone. Audrey smacked him out of reflex which earned her a playful glare.

"I want to lock Stefan up, at least until this Mikael guy comes, kills Klaus, and the compulsion breaks," Elena explained. Audrey's ears perked up at the mention of Klaus. They were going to kill him? She knew that was the plan all along but now that she heard it she felt uneasy. It's not that she didn't want Klaus dead too, she just felt gratitude towards him. She knew it was wrong but her heart had always been a moral compass and it was telling her she owed Klaus something.

"Compulsion or not, Stefan's high on human blood. Okay? A lot of it," Damon argued.

"You've gotten him off of it before," Elena pointed out. Damon rolled his eyes.

"This is different. It's not a stint in rehab, Elena. His humanity's gone. Light's out. No one's home," He replied. This time, it was Elena's turn to roll her eyes.

"Then do it for me, Damon. Every single time I look at him, I feel like I'm going to break. And I'm not going to give him the satisfaction," Elena explained, praying he'd finally listen to her. Audrey knew Damon had already caved. He'd do anything for the older Gilbert sister. Elena stood up, ready to leave when Damon takes her hand in his and brings it to his chest. "What are you doing?

"Feel that? It's a sternum. Solid plate of bone," Damon stated. He turned her around so her back was pressed against his front. "Right here, just below the rib cage, next to the spine, that's your way to a vampire's heart," Elena's breath hitched as his lips grazed her ear. "I'll do whatever it is you need me to do, Elena," Elena pulled away from him and turned to face him. "No one is going to hurt you. Especially, not my brother," Elena nodded and glanced at Audrey before exiting the room. When Damon turned to the younger sister, she was looking at him with a raised eyebrow and crossed arms. "What?"

"Was reality better than fantasy?" She teased.

"Awe babe, are you jealous?" He teased back. She flipped him off before following her sister out of the room.

When night came around everyone met back at the school for the bonfire. Audrey was dressed in booty shorts, a white, crop top, her leather jacket, and black heels. All thanks to her best friend, Caroline. "I look like I should be working the corner," She whined trying to cover herself.

"This was your plan, remember?" Caroline laughed at her friend. "Finish this off and you'll be golden," She handed Audrey a flask of flavored vodka, which Audrey gladly took. Her part in this fiasco was to keep Stefan on his toes. He was going to try to protect Elena and Audrey tonight so they were going to make his life miserable.

"I'm going to need more than this," Audrey groaned as she finished off he vodka. Her nerves were on fire. She was going to dance before the whole school and in order to do that she needed to be crazy drunk.

"All right, I'll lure Stefan away from the bonfire. Then when he's distracted...," She trailed off.

"I'll shoot him," Alaric finished.

"Can't Bonnie just ju-ju him or something?" Damon asked. Elena shook her head at him.

"I'm trying to keep Bonnie out of this. I don't trust that Stefan won't hurt her. Caroline, are you covered?" Elena asked turning to the blonde. Caroline was laughing at Audrey, as she tried to get every last drop from the flask, when Elena got her attention.

"What? Oh, yeah. I will make sure that the old Forbes jail cell is prepped and ready," She giggled.

"We're forgetting a key player here. Rebekah? Wherever Stefan goes, the blonde ponytail tends to follow," Damon said crossing his arms.

"What?! Why can't my job be distract Rebekah? She likes me," Audrey pleaded.

"No. You're going to stick to your part," Damon smirked. Audrey glared at him and threw the flask at him.

"This sucks! I basically have to do a strip tease in front of the school," Audrey complained. "This isn't who I am. Now, people are going to think-,"

"Little bird, don't worry. If anyone gives you a hard time, I'll kill them," Damon smiled. "Besides, you'll look hot as shit,"

"Damon's right. Stefan needs to be surprised and he won't expect you to do what you're doing," Elena said looking at her sister. Audrey whined as Damon chuckled. "Which is why Damon's going to distract, Rebekah,"

"What?! How? She's an Original. Last time I checked, we're out of daggers," Damon insisted.

"So then preoccupy her with your charm," Elena answered.

"Might have better luck finding the dagger," Alaric stated. Everyone but Damon began to laugh.

"Are you ever not going to be mad at me for a day?" Damon asked. Alaric shook his head and held his serious expression.

"Doubtful," He sighed. Tyler walked into the room with his newfound cheery attitude that was starting to piss everyone off.

"Sorry I'm late. What's going on?" He asked. When he saw Audrey trying to sneak some Ric's alcohol stash he sped over to her and picked her up.

"Tyler?! What the hell?!" She yelled.

"You shouldn't be drinking," He stated, bringing her over to the group.

"Says who?" She growled.

"Klaus wouldn't want you getting drunk," Tyler explained casually, as if it was the most normal thing in the world.

"Klaus can kiss my ass!" Audrey shouted jumping out of Tyler's arms. Everyone looked at him with confusion.

"Tyler? We need you to raid your mom's vervain supply. Enough to keep Stefan down for a while," Caroline said cautiously.

"You can't do that to Stefan," Tyler stated.

"Why not?" Caroline questioned back.

"Trust me, Tyler, it's in his best interest," Elena tried to explain.

"Yeah. It's not in Klaus's," Everyone shared a look when he brought up Klaus again.

"But Klaus is the bad guy, Tyler. You know, why are you acting like some freaky, hybrid, slave minion?" Caroline asked worriedly. A light went off in Damon's head.

"Uh-oh," He muttered.

"What?" Ric asked.

"Klaus made me who I am, Caroline. I owe him everything," Tyler snapped defensively.

"Oh, boy," Damon said again.

"Okay, can we cool it on the commentary, please?" Caroline spat at Damon.

"What's going on?" Elena asked looking between Damon and Tyler. Damon slowly got a vervain dart from Ric's desk as Tyler got more frustrated.

"I'm just going to go," Tyler mumbled, turning to walk away. Just before he got to the door, Damon sped at him and injected him vervain. Tyler immediately collapsed.

"What are you doing?!" Caroline shouted.

"He's been sired," Damon replied.

"He's been what?"

"Sired. He feels loyal to Klaus because Klaus's blood created him," Damon went on, kicking Tyler's body to see if he was really passed out.

"Loyal how?" Elena questioned.

"He'll seek acceptance from his master. It's really rare. But maybe not so much in hybrids," Damon tsk'd sarcastically.

"So how do I fix him?" Caroline asked hopefully.

"Get a new boyfriend,"
