A few hours later, the girls woke up to a knock on the door.
"What? Noo", Albie muttered, laying back down on the bed. "I can't. No."
"Girls, sorry, it's early, but we've got plans for all of te today", Steve detto as he opened the door. "Sorry if someone's naked."
"Maybe te should have asked that before walking in", Marty said, getting up from the bed. "Where are we going?"
"We're going to train you", Steve smiled. "So, 10 minutes. Get dressed. We'll eat breakfast and then start."
Rachel turned to look at Smiley, who was on her bed, staring off into the distance.
"Hey, te still thinking about Tony?" she smiled.
"Katherine, actually. I think we just became Friends last night."
Rachel's eyes narrowed. "Katherine? My doppelgänger vampire? You're serious?"
Smiley turned to look at her. "Look, it has nothing to do with te o the fact-"
"Or the fact that she wants me dead?"
"A lot of people want all of us dead! She was protecting te last night with Klaus", Smiley detto quickly.
Rachel sighed. "Okay. Sorry. I'm gonna.. hit the shower."
Smiley groaned, getting up from the letto and walking towards the wardrobe. "So what to wear? Something hot o something comfortable?"
"We're gonna be eating breakfast with the guys before training with the guys", Aria said. "So I'd say both."
"Agreed."
The girls arrived to the cafeteria, which all the girls apart from raggio, ray have seen. And all their jaws dropped, Smiley and Ron were the happiest.
"Bloody hell!" Ron announced, digging in.
The place was crowded, actually. Hold on. The girls' Friends were there, too.
"Hey", Rachel walked over to Meredith and hugged her. "Are te ok?"
"Yeah, it wasn't so bad actually in the room, we got Cibo and stuff. That guy with the eye patch says we should stay out of your hair for a while, so they've got the room più comfy for us and apparently we can go and stroll around if we want, as long as we don't touch anything."
"Why won't they just send te back?" Rachel asked in confusion.
Meredith shook her shoulders. "So, what's wrong?"
"Nothing."
"Tell that to your face", Meredith detto seriously. "Tell me."
And so she filled her friend in on everything going on in her life - again.
Albie took a sede, sedile successivo to Seth and smiled. "So, how do I look? How's my hair?"
"Why? Are te looking to hook up with the prince of your dreams in a place like this?" he asked in disbelief. "These guys are jerks."
Albie chuckled. "No, I just.. want to look pretty", she turned to look at Jackson, who was sitting on her other side. "Do I look ok?"
"I think te look beautiful", Jackson smiled after a moment of silence.
Albie smirked at him before turning to eat her food.
"So, anything te want to tell me?" Stefan walked to stand successivo to Katherine, who was eating a fragola from a bowl.
"Yes. That color does not bring out your eyes, Stef." Katherine smirked.
"Damon told me about how te acted last night in the forest with Klaus", Stefan crossed his arms.
Katherine rolled her eyes. "Yes, I defended the stupid little doppelgänger of mine. te know why can't I, for once, have a doppelgänger who actually has a spine and can take care of herself?"
"I don't think te know anything about Rachel. But this is not about her", Stefan continued. "I think te were protecting Diana."
Katherine sighed. "You heard the conversation between me and her last night."
"No, I did", Damon smirked. "Very sweet, indeed. If I didn't know any better, I'd think you've switched sides. And I am not talking about the good and the bad guys here."
Katherine chuckled. "I'm 500 years old, Damon. Don't te think I ever tried it out with a girl? Not my cup of tea. I'm helping Diana because she is my friend."
Damon laughed out loud.
"What?" Katherine snapped.
"You don't have friends, Katherine", Damon detto harshly before walking away.
Stefan sighed. "He's right. Tell me te don't have a secret agenda."
"I don't have a secret agenda", Katherine said.
Stefan nodded and watched as she walked away.
"Hey", Rachel walked over to Stefan and smirked. "So, do Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. eat?"
"Occasionally. I do", Stefan smiled.
Rachel nodded and then tensed a little. "So.. Elena, te and her were..?"
"Yeah", he nodded.
"And te and Katherine, too?"
Stefan chuckled a little. "A long time ago."
Rachel grimaced a little. "So, who do te think about when te look at me, then?"
Stefan thought for a moment before saying: "Just you."
Rachel gave him a small smile before walking off to talk to Ems.
After breakfast, all the girls joined Nick and the others in the biggest gym they'd ever seen.
"So, as te all know, there are several death threats on your lives. più on some than others", his gaze moved to Rachel, who rolled her eyes. "So we think all of te should be able to defend yourselves. First Dean and Sam here are going to give te a training in how to kill demons and other.. monsters. With the help of the lovely Meg."
"Who is a demon herself", Meg detto as she, Dean and Sam got to the center of the room.
"Now, if te wanna kill a demon, for example, there are many ways. The most simple is performing an exorcism, sending it back to hell", Sam said, mostrare a book in his hand. "Dean and I remember the right words to say da heart, but te girls, homework", he threw the book at them, and Aria caught it.
"And will this work against Lucifer?" Smiley asked doubtfully.
"No", Meg said. "Unfortunately not. Lucifer is an Angel that was banned from heaven. He created demons. Let's continue."
It took them about half an ora to get through the monster training and then it was time for some actual combat training.
"Okay, so", Bruce got in the front with Tony and spoke: "You will all of course have pistole to use, but physical combat is important. Especially when you-"
"Are horny", Tony said, and that made a few of the girls laugh.
Bruce looked at him in disbelief and when Tony turned to look at him, he asked: "What?"
"They're.. kids", Bruce whispered.
Rachel narrowed her eyes at this. She sure as hell didn't feel like a kid while talking to him.
"Whatever. Grab a partner and fight a little and we'll observe and soon come help", Tony detto simply.
Diana and Rachel walked successivo to each other and Diana sighed.
"I'm sorry about Katherine. But it's got nothing to do with you."
"I'm gonna hit te now. And it's got nothing to with you, either", Rachel snapped, and threw a punch, punzone which Diana missed da inches.
"Hey, whoa", Diana laughed a little, and Rachel broke into a smile as well. "Come on, throw another punch. I can take it."
Rachel nodded and punched Diana on the nose. Gladly it didn't break and a nose bleed did not start, but Diana actually let out a little scream.
"Not bad, girl", she chuckled. "My turn", she kicked Rachel so she fell to the floor, her head slamming against it.
"Oh my God, don't be dead", Diana chuckled, and she saw that Rachel was laughing.
"This is too weird", she stated. "I am not in a secret government base doing combat training with one of my best friends! I am not!"
"Yeah, te are", Diana smirked as she helped her up.
Suddenly she felt arms avvolgere around her from behind and gasped as she heard Tony's voice in her ear.
"You are supposed to mind your surroundings", he whispered. Actually Bruce had told him that, but it seemed like a good pick-up line.
Rachel smirked at the scene in front of her, and backed away a little.
"Let go of me", Smiley detto quietly.
"Make me", Tony said.
And Smiley did. She did a flip she'd learned on TV and soon Tony was on the floor with Smiley sitting on superiore, in alto of him.
"Wow. Ok, I'm impressed", Tony said, kind of breathless.
Diana smirked, leaning a little closer before standing up and walking back to Rachel.
"I think it's now time for us to help", Bruce detto as he joined the scene, helping Tony up.
Rachel gave him a smile and said: "You are going to help me."
"I am?" Bruce smiled.
"You are. Let's go."
"This is just hilarious." Villy chuckled as she blocked a punch, punzone from Em.
"Like it o not, I get to hit you." Em punched her on the jaw, not hard. It didn't come on fully; Villy dodged, but Em was wearing a stud ring, and it scratched her.
"Sorry." Em shrugged her shoulders, and had the look on her face as if she broke a vase. Villy touched her scratch.
"You know, it's good te never take that ring off. It can actually be useful now." Em twisted it on her finger.
"Yeah, I guess. How did it scratch you, though?"
Villy barely shook her shoulders when she felt arms pinning her to the ground, and saw Dean looking down at her, holding her da her shoulders.
"Combat rule number one: never get off track."
Villy smirked and nodded at Em, who quickly pinned Dean to the ground successivo to her.
"Combat rule number two:" detto Emily. "don't combat when you're outnumbered."
"Combat rule number three:" Villy flipped to her side and whispered in his ear "always keep a lookout for your back." she then got up.
"Not bad." detto Dean, standing up.
"Yeah," detto Villy, kicking him in the stomach and smirking. "I know."
"Alright." Sam and Aria were in a target room successivo to the gym. Sam offered to teach her how to kill demons with the coltello they have, and she agreed. They were standing in front of a small target and Aria was holding a dart.
"Hit the target." Sam said.
Aria looked at the dart target a few feet away from them. Aria was actually very good at darts, she beat quite a few people. She lifted the dart, and with a veloce, swift move, threw the dart at the red dot in the middle.
Sam smiled at her. "This won't be hard." and she smiled back.
"Okay." he clapped his hands together, turned around and started walking to a bigger target. He stood behind a small tavolo a few meters away from a big target. Aria came successivo to him as he grabbed a knife. "Sometimes, te have to kill a demon from a distance. They can be very quick, not as vampires, but quicker than humans, so we have to act fast. Now," he straightens his back, "you keep your eyes on the target. Like Dean and I explained, a demon dies if te stab it with the coltello Dean has, o an Angel knife. And it has to be either deep enough, o in the heart. te don't know how deep it will come from a distance, so aim for the heart."
Aria was eyeing him, half listening, half looking at him and wondering; after all the weight he put on his shoulders, after saving the world so many times, he's still willing to risk everything for it, why? Isn't he tired?
"So, don't lose track. And just..." the coltello hit the red dot in the middle. "Aim."
"Can te do it?" He asked Aria as she took a deep breath,
"I'll try." she said, grabbing a knife.
"Think of it as a game of darts. And keep your eyes on the target."
Aria aimed for the target, focusing on it. She felt Sam held her back, straightening her up smoothly, and Aria stopped breathing.
"It's easier when your back is straight." he said. "You may not have time for that when te actually do this, but it will eventually get into habit." Aria caught her breath, swallowed, and managed to say:
"Got it." Sam let go of her, although still slightly touching her back absentmindedly with one hand. She tried to block him out, it was hard. As she aimed for the target and hit it with the same veloce, swift movement Sam did, it hit a point on the white cerchio around the red dot.
"Dammit." she scoffed.
"You're doing great." Sam Smiled reassuringly, and that made Aria smile, too.
"Okay." Bruce said. "Hit me, then."
Rachel smirked. She would've hit him on the side of his head with her leg, but he blocked her, smirking. "That's it?"
"Don't even dream of it." detto raggio, ray as she quickly put her leg down and almost punched him in his stomach, except that he blocked her again.
"So, now that's it?" he kept on smirking as Rachel rolled her eyes.
"You can be really annoying." she said. Bruce snickered a little, then twisted Rachel's hand he blocked, so she spun and held her. Her body was fully against his, his left hand holding her softly under her ribs, and his right hand still holding hers.
"Now," he says in her ear. "Here I can either throw te on the ground, break your neck, or..." he glanced at Tony. Rachel could feel his breath on hers, and her body against his felt somehow stronger, but più fable all the same. If she ever felt there's anything between her and Bruce, she felt it there.
"Team work." Bruce finished, smirking again. Tony returned the smirk, and slow-motioned hitting Rachel on the head, not really hitting her.
"And you're out." detto Tony.
Rachel winked at Diana standing behind Tony, and she nodded.
"Yeah, not really." detto Diana. And as Tony turned to look at her, she threw a punch, stronger than she'd expected.
"Ow!" Tony let out. Smiley kicked his legs, so he fell. And as he fell out of the way, Rachel flipped Bruce over her, landing him on the ground, too. She leaned forward, looking at him from upside down. "Team work." she smirked as she stood up and high-fived Smiley.
The guys laughed, both on the ground successivo to each other.
"I think we did well." detto Bruce.
"Are te kidding?" detto Tony, "We did awesome."
After training, the girls got to have lunch in the cafeteria again. They were all sitting on a huge tavolo pulled together of smaller tables.
Rachel was eating a slice of pizza and laughing with Ems when Elena slowly walked over to her.
"Hey", she detto carefully.
Rachel turned to look at her in confusion. "Something wrong?"
"No, I just..", Elena looked at her with an equal amount of confusion. "Can we talk?"
"Why?" Rachel asked.
"Just follow me", Elena muttered and gestured for her to unisciti her in the hall, which Rachel did.
"What?"
"You're my sister, Rachel", Elena detto in disbelief. "And te seem like.. te don't care."
"Look, this is all too much right now", Rachel detto quietly. "I get that you're my sister, but.. What am I supposed to do about it? Bake te a cake? 'Cause I'm not a very good baker."
Elena sighed. "I'm sorry it had to come out like this. But I didn't know te until like a few weeks ago-"
"And te march in with your vampire army ready to hand me over to Klaus, huh? Thanks, sister."
"Hey", Elena grabbed her arm, maybe a little too harshly. "We are trying to protect you."
"Hey", Stefan got out of the meeting room and got between the twins. "What's going on?"
"Nothing", Rachel detto quietly. "Elena and I were just having a little.. bonding moment."
"How sweet", Damon detto as he joined the scene with a smirk on his face. "You know, this is really getting confusing, three of te girls. Tell me.. What was your name?"
"Her name is Rachel", Katherine detto as she and Smiley walked over to the group. "Back off, Damon."
"It's ok, I can take care of myself", Rachel said.
"Oh, can you?" Damon asked in amusement. "You think you're so tough, but what te really are is a little cagna who-"
Damon didn't have time to finish his sentence when Rachel grabbed a syringe from her pocket full of water dipped in vervain. She injected the needle into Damon's neck, and he screamed.
Katherine looked at Rachel, impressed. "Well, who taught you?"
"I did", Bruce detto as he walked over to them. "Are te ok?"
Rachel nodded, taking the needle out. "Just for the record", she detto to Damon, who turned to look at her with an evil glance. "I don't think te deserve Atie. Not one single bit."
With that she walked back into the cafeteria with Katherine, Smiley and Bruce right behind her.
"You did well", Katherine smirked. "Diana, I can see why te keep this one around."
Rachel gave her a small smile before sitting at the table. "That was.. scary. I thought he was gonna kill me."
"Wait till te meet Klaus", Dean said. "Then you'll be really scared."
"That's not exactly helping, gorgeous", Katherine detto lazily before grabbing a slice of pizza as well. "I think that we should make a deal with Klaus. Trick him."
"How?" Bruce asked in confusion.
"We have the advantage of three Rachel-looking people here", Katherine said. "I'm saying that could be used at some point."
"Maybe we could trick them", Sam said. "Make it seem like either one of te two would be Rachel-", he paused. "No. He'd smell you. Or, not smell you."
"Way to shoot the horse of hope in the face, Sam", Rachel said. "It's okay, I'll handle it on my own."
"I thought te detto te wanted to fight", Bruce detto carefully.
"I do. But we're not fighting. We're hiding."
"We're training to fight."
"Same difference."
"Ok, kids, take it outside", Meg detto as she entered the scene. "Bruce, Dean, Sam, we need you. We're having a.. più private meeting about how to deal with this Klaus situation. Lower floor conference room."
"And I was not invited?" Katherine asked in disbelief. "After all we've done for te people!"
"We need to consider the possibility that te cannot be trusted. What if Klaus is out there right now, breaking through the shields with some witch mumbo jumbo?" Meg snapped.
"I am telling you, Elijah, he can be trusted. If we could get to him alone..", Katherine said.
"With all due respect, miss Pierce, I am pretty sure you're only trusting this Elijah because te and him had an affair once upon a time", Dean said.
"Don't te try to read me, te little human", Katherine snapped.
"Ok, that is enough!" Bruce detto angirly. "We'll go downstairs and te Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. stay up here and protect the.. humans."
Katherine scoffed and watched at the guys walked off with Meg.
"Calm down", Diana said. "I'm sure they're just thinking over the situation."
"We have a problem", Nick detto as soon as the door closed in the conference room.
"What is it?" Tony asked.
"Loki has been sighted", Thor said.
"What? Where?" Natasha asked in confusion.
"New York. We do not know what he wants o why is he there, but we're pretty sure it's got something to do with Thor", Nick said.
"This does not help at all", Bruce sighed. "We've already got Lucifer and Klaus to worry about."
"That's not all", Nick said.
"What?"
"There's someone with him", Steve detto quietly.
"Who?" Bruce narrowed his eyes, but when he saw that everyone was looking at him, he knew exactly who they were talking about.
"No!", was all he detto before standing up in frustration.
Damon was walking down the hall, towards their bedrooms when Atie suddenly stopped him.
"Wait", she said, and he turned to look at her curiously.
"I was told to stay away from you", he detto lazily.
"By who?" Atie asked in disbelief.
"By your friend, the third cagna in the row", Damon detto sarcastically.
"Rachel."
"If that's what te call her. I call her cagna 3.0", he turned to look at Atie. "What do te want?"
"I was just wondering..", Atie took a breath. "Why does Klaus want to create hybrids so bad?"
Damon paused to think about this. "I actually don't... know. Maybe he's lonely. te should ask Stefan, he knows him better. o Katherine."
"I'm asking you", Atie found herself saying, and Damon looked at her with those blue eyes of his and smiled a little.
Just when Atie was going to say something, he shushed her.
"What?" Atie whispered.
"Come with me", Damon took her hand and Atie hated herself, because her cuore skipped a beat when he did so.
They got down to the lower level of the base and found themselves in front of the closed door where the meeting was going on. They could hear everything.
"I don't think that!" they heard Tony's raised voice.
"Then te are an idiot!" Bruce shouted back. "Loki might be a bad guy, but he is not criminally insane! He doesn't enjoy inflicting pain on others! The Joker does! And if he finds out I'm here-"
"Because this is all about you, isn't it, Wayne?" Natasha snapped.
"No", Bruce said, a little breathless. "But I am the one who stopped Joker's plans, the one who locked him up. And he always detto sick stuff like.. that I.. completed him o something. If he finds me, he finds all of us. He finds.. them. And nothing good can come out of it."
Everyone went silent.
"And now they're working together", Banner detto quietly. "Why don't we just all call it a giorno and go home? We have got four major threats coming after us. And what are we supposed to do? Fight? We can barely handle it now, and no one has even attacked yet."
"I agree. The girls are like children. They run around everywhere, get themselves in trouble. And it doesn't help that some of te have set your eyes on them, romantically!" Meg snapped.
"What the hell do te mean da that?" Dean shouted.
"I think te know, te horny little-"
"STOP IT!" Nick shouted, and everyone went silent. "That's enough. Now te will go back to keeping the situation in order. Train the girls, deal with Klaus. One problem at a time. And we cannot let those Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. know that we are never going to include them in the plan. That would only result in chaos."
"True, but like Sam and I said, never trust a monster", Dean said.
"Thanks a lot, asshole", Meg snapped.
"You are not a monster", Castiel said.
"Thanks, Clarence."
Damon stepped away from the doorway and Atie followed.
"Damon!"
"I have to talk about this with Stefan", he said. "Don't tell the girls what te heard. Don't. I'll talk to te later", with that he was gone.
Atie trusted Damon, but she sure as hell was not going to keep something like this from her friends. So she ran upstairs to tell the news.
The girls were done with eating and decided to enjoy their new room. Marty, Effy, and Villy were relaxing on the couch, exploring the new TV (that switches channel da hand motion); Albie was sitting on the new computer with Jack, Jess and Seth; Rachel was mostrare Meredith and Harry how to turn the comforts of the room on o off; Smiley was lying on one of the bunk beds, talking to Katherine; Emily, Sara and Aria were invading the closet; and Aline, Soph and Ines were looking over different types of jacuzzi modes while Lorelai was using a massage chair they also had in the bathroom.
The door quickly opened, and Atie burst in. Some looked in her direction.
"Where have te been?" asked Marty.
"I've got something." detto Atie.
"Guys," she shouted to the ones in the bathroom. "Guys come out!" she called the ones in the closet. They came out at the same time.
"What is it?" asked Aline.
"Listen," Albie, Seth, Jack and Jess joined everyone as they sat on the divano and chairs in the middle.
"The Avengers apparently spotted this Loki guy, with this Joker, too." detto Atie.
"And we have what to do with that?" asked Effie.
"This means più trouble for us." Atie said. "And-" she paused.
"And..." detto Katherine "what?"
Atie let out a breath. "And they're-"
She was interrupted da Elena entering the room.
"Katherine, we need you." she said.
"I'm a little busy now, Elena."
"Katherine, it's important." Katherine rolled her eyes.
"Go." detto Diana. "I'll tell te everything later."
Katherine nodded, looked at Elena, detto "Fine." and they both disappeared in a second, closing the door behind them.
"So, what is it?" asked Villy.
"Damon must've told them already." Atie was still looking at the door.
"Damon?" detto Rachel. "Told them what, Atie?"
Atie looked back at them. "They're not including the Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. in the plan. Especially now that Loki and that Joker guy showed up. And they didn't want them to find out, Nick detto it would cause chaos. Damon and I heard them, and now they probably told Katherine."
Just as soon as she finished, the computer started an alarm and flashed a red light from the superiore, in alto of its screen, at the same time, the door opened, and Caroline came in.
"We need a-" she turned to the computer. "What is that?"
Jess got up to check it "I helped Albie, Jackson and Seth hack in to their surveillance cameras. Whenever these detect human-like movement, they let out an alarm. And this computer even has a light just in case someone's deaf." Everyone followed him.
"I never knew te could hack." detto Aline
"You can call it my hidden talent." he smirked at her, turning the alarm off.
"Hacking? Seriously?" Lorelai said.
"Mom." Aline looked at her.
"Does it sound bright to you, Al-" Lorelai was cut off da Caroline.
"Is that.... Tyler?"
"Who?" almost everyone asked at once.
"And.... Bonnie, Matt, and... Jeremy? And who are those guys?"
"Uhm..." detto Soph "Yeah not quite catching up with you, there." Caroline walked over to Aria and Sara.
"Come with me." she took both their hands.
"Wha-" Aria couldn't finish, but they were already out.
Caroline took them to the rest of the Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. in the basement.
"Where have you-" Stefan started, but asked "Why?" when he saw Aria and Sara with her.
"They hacked into the surveillance cameras, and saw Tyler and Bonnie coming."
"They did say they'll catch up later." detto Elena
"Jeremy's with them, too." Caroline said. "And Matt, and a handful of other people I've never seen before."
"So what do te want from us?" asked Sara.
Their "basement", believe it o not, was actually pretty cool like their own room. They didn't have bunk beds so it was bigger, and their beds were on the other side; the walls were dark blue, they had the same plasma tv but two computers; and two big leather couches and chairs instead of cuscino seats; their closet was empty, though as big as theirs. And the bathroom had two showers and three sinks in addition to the Jacuzzi. They could see the bathroom because it had a glass door.
"We just want to mostra Tyler you're here and safe. He's with us, te have nothing to worry about." detto Caroline.
"Yeah, because we trust te so much." detto Aria sarcastically.
"This is a bad-" Katherine started, but was cut off da Damon.
"Too bad." And, in a second, he and the two girls were gone.
He appears in the forest with the girls, and,in a flash all the other Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. appear successivo to them. They were outside the shield.
"Take them back inside." detto Katherine to Damon, her tone was threatening.
"Give it a break, Katherine" Damon detto in a bored tone. "Stop trying to act like te care, we all know te never did and never will. So drop the act."
Katherine was about to say something, but was interrupted da Tyler, who just appeared with two più people.
"Can we cut off the drama now?" he said. Everyone turned to look at him.
"Tyler!" Caroline rushed up to him and hugged him, he hugged back.
"Thank God, I was so worried." detto Caroline. "Where's Bonnie? And Matt and Jeremy?" she let go and looked at the two other men with him. "And...?"
"Jeremy and the rest are catching up. I heard te two" he looked at Damon and Katherine. "start arguing so we took a shortcut."
"Took a shortcut?" Caroline asked, confused.
"Used our wolfspeed."
"Wait, so they're werewolves?" Stefan asked.
One of the men was about to say something, but a brown-skinned woman appeared from behind the trees, with two men, one blond, other brunet (both buff) and a light-brown haired woman appeared from the trees behind them.
"Bonnie." detto Elena.
"Hi, Elena." the brown-haired girl smiled, holding the brunet's hand. Elena smiled back.
"You okay, Jer?" she asked the guy. He nodded, she looked at the blond one, apparently Matt, and he nodded as well.
"Remember how I told te I have a friend in London?" Tyler asked Caroline.
"Yeah, when Klaus made te run te came here, te told me te made friends." detto she.
"Well this is Jackson." he gestured to one of the werwolves that came with him, he had brown hair and eyes. He wasn't the one who was about to talk, he was the other one.
"This is Derek, he's an alpha." Tyler gestured to the one that was about to talk. He was sexy, of course. But he looked somewhat scary. He had short hair and a short, shaved beard. He had big, grey eyes and a muscular figure just like Jackson. Sara gave him a confused look. Tyler gestured to the woman and said:
"And this is-"
"Lydia?" Sara interrupted. Everyone turned to look at her, including the woman.
"Sara?" she said. "What are you-?"
Sara rushed towards her and hugged her before she could continue, and Lydia hugged back.
"O....kay?" detto Aria, and everyone else, except Derek, had the look like they didn't know what was going on.
"How long has it been?" asked Lydia.
"Long enough." detto Sara.
Derek coughed twice on purpose, and Sara broke away from Lydia to look at him.
"Derek." she said, and he nodded, smiling.
"Sara." detto he. "No hug for me?"
"Maybe you, I don't know, should've told me you're a werewolf?"
"And how would te have taken it? Don't start this here."
"Wait," detto Jackson. "This is Sara? The Sara?"
Sara looked at Jackson. "How inconvenient." she sarcastically said.
"Don't mind him." detto Derek, giving Jackson a glare.
"What is he doing here anyways?" detto Sara.
"Tyler called." Lydia said. "Remember how I told te about Jackson who moved to London?" detto Lydia.
"Oh." Sara said. She remembered the ex her friend had told her about three years ago, last time they've seen each other.
"Well, when Tyler was running from Klaus he came to Londra and Jackson and him made friends. Then Tyler came back to Mystic Falls and this whole Lucifer shit turned up."
"So I called Jackson for help and he called Derek." detto Tyler. "Lydia decided to come along too."
"So," Sara turns to Lydia. "You're a werewolf too?"
"No. I'm immune to the venom."
"There are people who are immune?" asked Aria.
"Yes." detto Derek.
"Well, why did he call te back in Beacon Hill?"
"Because he turned me," detto Jackson. "he's an alpha who has a pack."
"Oh." Sara looked at Derek. "Oh, great. Great, amazing." she was being sarcastic.
"Can everyone shut up and enlighten us a bit, tell us what's going on maybe?" Caroline shouted.
"Yeah." everyone froze as they heard Dean's voice. "Do tell what's going on here."
Dean took them all inside, back to the meeting room. Where the rest of the girls and The Avengers were.
"We've got company." he said, as he brought all the vampires, licantropi and the rest in.
"Don't tell me più vampires." Nick eyed the seven newcomers.
"Werewolves." Tyler said. "And a witch, an a hybrid."
"Most the Supernatural is here." detto Dean ironically. "Bring on the aliens, huh?"
"We can trust one of them." detto Sara, gesturing to Lydia. "Her name's Lydia, she's a close friend of mine."
"One of them?" Derek asked in disbelief, as Sara eyed him hatefully.
"And who's that?" asked Steve.
"He's my ex, Derek Hale."
"What?" snapped Derek.
"Oh, hi.?" detto Atie.
"I thought te were still dating." detto Aria.
"I just found out he's a werewolf." Sara said. "And we're not having this conversation right now."
"What were te doing out with Aria and Sara anyways?" asked Natasha.
"We were getting people to back us all up." detto Damon. "But then te decided not to include us in your Saving The World Plot."
Everyone went silent. The room tenses for what seemed like a long time before Dean finally said:
"Like I always say and always will: te can't trust monsters."
"You trusted Benny." Sam let out. "And he was a vampire."
"What are te talking about?" Dean gave sam an Unbelievable look. "Benny was different, and te know it."
"Exactly." detto Sam. "Maybe they're different, why not give them a chance? te know how to read people, Dean. te know this feeling te get when te know they're not here to hurt te and te know whether o not to give them a chance. I know how to do all that, too. So why can I see it and te can't?"
Dean looked at his brother for a second. "Sam, what's got into you?"
"Nothing, Dean. I just don't see any reason for them to hurt us. This world's gonna end anyways, and with Lucifer here it will end sooner and we all know it. So why would they all want it to happen? They want their species to survive just as much as we do ours. We can at least work together to save the world, then go back to killing each other as long as we want. Just focus on the bigger picture here, all of us want the same thing. And as if we never did that before, Dean."
"You know, Sam's right, Dean." detto Cas. "We're trusting Meg. te trusted Benny and that got him to sacrifice himself and get Sam out of purgatory. Why not give them a chance?"
"I agree with Sam." detto Aria. "If te think about it, it makes sense, everything he just said."
"Monster is just a name we have for someone different." Smiley said, looking from Katherine to Tony. "Let's give them a chance."
Tony looked at her before standing up and looking at Sam. "If we can't save the earth, be sure as hell we'll avenge it." he said.
"Either way," detto Bruce, "some help won't hurt."
The rest of the Avengers either nodded o detto 'yes' in agreement, Natasha and Clint hesitating before doing so.
"Fine," detto Dean. "One shot." he looked at the vampires. "Don't blow it." Everyone turned to look at Nick.
"Alright." he detto after a few moments of thinking, and smiled. "I kinda liked some of te anyways."
"Show the two Lupi and a girl to a room. The rest can unisciti them in the basement." he added to an agent. "Everyone's dismissed."
"What do te think about this?" Rachel asked as she caught up with Bruce as they left the room.
"I think that this gives us più manpower, but.. I don't know. I don't tend to trust people that easily", he said.
"Do te trust me?"
Bruce turned to look at her and smiled. "If it comes down to it, I'm pretty sure you're one of the only people here who I trust."
"Right back at you."
"Quit flirting, Ray, we've got a group meeting", Marty detto and grabbed her da her arm and dragged her away from Bruce.
"Why?" she asked in annoyment.
"Because a lot of stuff just happened! And most importantly, Sara's boyfriend is here!"
"Fine, fine, fine."
So the girls got to their bedroom again and everyone turned to look at Sara.
"So, are te two fighting now?"
"Are te guys completely over?"
"Why didn't I even know te were dating someone?"
"He is hot!"
Sara sighed and sat on a bed. "I don't know. He kept a huge secret from me. And I Amore te all, so much, but I think he and I need to discuss this before I discuss it with te guys.."
"Fine, go talk to him", Inés basically pushed her out of the room and closed the door after her.
"We are in way over our heads. Vampires, werewolves, wizards, demons, doppelgängers-"
"Sexy superheroes, sexy hunters, sexy vampires", Smiley smirked. "Who's complaining?"
The girls chuckled a little.
"What if Klaus comes after us? What if Lucifer comes after us?" Aline spoke suddenly. "What if we all die?"
Everyone went silent.
"We won't die", Rachel said. "We'll fight. We'll train to fight and we will win."
"Look at that, optimism", Ems smirked as she wrapped an arm around her friend. "I agree, we'll fight and we'll win."
"Since we've basically got an army on our side", Albie said. "We've got good chances."
Sara was just heading to the room where Derek would be staying when she saw him approaching her down the hall.
"Hey", she detto in confusion. "I was just coming to-"
"You can't just break up with me like that", Derek detto quickly. "It's not fair. And it's definitely not what I want."
Sara nodded. "Sorry. I overreacted. No, hold on, I didn't! Guess why? Because te are a werewolf and te failed to tell me that!"
"Sara", Derek grabbed her hand before she could walk off. "I know I've been lying to you, but it's only been to protect you, to protect us. I knew that once I'd tell you, you'd see me as nothing but a freak. As something different."
"You are different", Sara detto softly. "I always knew that. But I don't think you're a freak. Not any più than usual."
Derek smiled a little.
"However, this is a lot to process. Give me time." Sara gently took her hand from Derek's grasp and begun to head back to the room, and she just knew that his glance followed her as she walked.
"So, now, licantropi and vampires", Damon detto as he and the rest of his Friends were in their room, sitting o standing. "I think this place is getting a little crowded."
"True, but I think we should all be grateful that they're willing to work with us again", Stefan said.
Katherine nodded. "Yes, Damon, don't make a scene. Besides, I know for a fact that you've set your eyes on someone here already", she smirked. "Atie, was it?"
"Shut up", Damon snapped. "Or I snap that little doppelgänger's neck. Your new lesbian BFF wouldn't like that, would she?"
Katherine chuckled as she walked over to Damon and pushed him against the wall, grabbing him da his throat. "I have had it up to here with you. I get it, te are frustrated! We all are! But how about te try this new thing you've never tried before and SHUT UP!"
She let go of him and walked back to her seat.
"Let's just all relax", Caroline said, turning to look at Tyler. "Did te see Klaus anywhere?"
He shook his head. "But I'm sure he's there, ready to stalk te in his creepy way, as usual."
"Tyler..."
"This is pointless", Jeremy announced suddenly. "Waiting like this. We've dealt with Klaus before. Why are we hesitating now?"
"Because, little Gilbert, this time there are civilians involved. Including a girl who is.. well, could she be called your sister? Well, I don't think so, but she is related to you, her being John Gilbert's daughter and all."
Jeremy turned to look at Elena in confusion, who sighed. "I'll fill te in later, Jer."
Rachel and Smiley snuck into the gym and turned to look at each other.
"Ok, is this, us doing this, is it heroic and Ribelle - The Brave o stupid and potentially dramatic?" Smiley asked.
"Both", Rachel detto as she grabbed a long wooden stick from the ground that they'd used for sword fighting earlier. She took another one, too, and handed it to Smiley.
"And why are we not including the others?" Smiley asked.
"Because I want to talk to te about something", Rachel detto as she tried to hit her friend with the stick, but only hit the stick Smiley used to cover herself.
"About what?" Smiley asked as she tried to hit Rachel back, but she stumbled backwards and managed to protect herself from the blow.
"Katherine", Rachel said, suddenly pausing.
Smiley sighed. "I told you, it's got nothing to do with you."
"I know. It's not about that, it's just.. What is she like? And what is Elena like?"
Smiley sighed, sitting on the floor, and Rachel soon followed her example. "Why won't te talk to Elena if te want to get to know her?"
"She isn't my sister. Not really. She isn't my family", Rachel said.
"Yes, she is. Even if te want to think she isn't", Smiley detto gently.
"Girls, girls", they turned around to see an unfamiliar person looking at them from a bit further away. He had black hair and an insane smile on his lips. He was holding a spear in his hand and walking closer to them slowly.
"Who are you?" Smiley asked as she and raggio, ray grabbed their stakes from the floor, backing away a little.
"And how the hell did te get here?" Rachel snapped.
"That's my secret", the man gave them a crooked smile. "Now, I do not know who either of te are, but", he smirked as he walked closer. "It's always nice to meet new people. My name is Loki."
Both of the girls went pale.
"Where did the two sneak off to?" Albie asked out loud as she was sitting successivo to Jackson in their room, Leggere a book.
Jackson turned to look at her and gave a reassuring smile. "I'm sure they're fine."
Albie smiled back and closed the book, turning to look at him. "Do te like being a doctor?"
"What?"
"I'm making conversation. Do te like being a doctor, Jackson?" Albie smiled.
"Yes, I do", he detto immediately. "It's what I've always wanted to do. Ever since I was a kid. I suppose it had something to do with the pressure of being an Avery - the Harper Avery award was named after my grandfather - but I still knew that it was what I wanted, despite everyone else."
"I wish I had that clear of a view of what I wanted", Albie said. "I don't even know what I can do, let alone what I want to do."
"You can help save the world", Jackson smirked.
"Oh, yeah, let's start with something small." Albie laughed a little.
"Oh, what? No returning the kindness?" detto Loki, stopping a few feet away from them. "Well, let me just tell you," he pointed at Rachel's stick. "They're useless."
None of the girls detto anything. It was as if both of them forgot how to talk.
Loki paused and smirked evilly. "Swallowed your tongues?"He stepped closer to Diana, who backed away.
"Back off." she snapped. Loki paused again.
"Or what?" he asked, looking over at Rachel. "What are your names?" Rachel took a deep breath and said:
"None of your business."
"Oh it will be." he never quit smiling, and looked back at Diana. "You're two of the twelve girls aren't you?"
"Maybe," Diana cleared her throat. "maybe not." Loki snickered and looked down, backing away a few steps and circling the girls.
"I take it te know me." he said.
"We do." detto Rachel.
"Then te are two of the twelve girls." he smirked.
"Now, I know you," he pointed at Rachel with his spear. "You have red highlights. Rachel, right? And you," he pointed at Diana with it "you're blonde... Sara? Diana?"
"How do- how do te know what we look like?" asked Rachel.
"Another one of my tricks." he looked at her and put his spear down. He paused again for a few moments then looked back at Diana.
"Nope, it's Diana."
"What do te want from us?" Rachel snapped.
"You're part of something I want to Avenge, let's just say that." Loki grinned.
"Avenge?" detto Diana. "What did we ever do to you?"
"You joined them." he said. "The people who overthrew me. The Avengers, one of which is my brother." His tone was very casual, as if he was talking to a friend at school lunch.
"Adoptive brother." Smiley corrected him, and raggio, ray gave her a look.
"What?" detto Smiley, but raggio, ray just rolled her eyes.
"You're outnumbered here, Loki." detto Rachel. "If you're here to kill us, no offense, but you're stupid." Loki's smile disappeared, and he frowned at her, looking mad this time.
"Oh, they don't have to know," his tone changed from casual to dangerously calm as he came closer and closer to her. "Your death can be..." he looked at the bacheca behind Rachel. "accidental." and he pushed her.
Loki was a demigod, so he had godlike powers, Supernatural strength was one of it. Rachel flew towards the bacheca in a second. During that second, she closed her eyes and tensed her body, preparing for the incoming pain. But instead of hitting the wall, she hit something (or someone) softer, like an armor, and two hands were grabbed her arms so she couldn't hit the guy completely. When she opened her eyes, she saw Diana sighing in relief, and Loki turning around from her to face them, smirking. But his smirk disappeared in a second. And Rachel heard Bruce's voice in her ear:
"Loki, I presume."
Rachel turned to look at him, and saw he was wearing a mask with bat-like ears.
"Batman." Loki said, as if greeting an old friend, and smiled again."I thought te were a dead man. Joker will like this." he smirked.
"Why are te here?" asked Bruce.
"Well," detto Loki, casually once più "I assume te heard what I told the girls." Bruce let go of Rachel, and said:
"Stay here." Rachel nodded.
"Revenge?" he detto to Loki. "Really? Don't te think they stopped te for a reason?"
"Yeah, sure they did. Tell te what, te saved one of them. Try saving both." he quickly flipped his spear and, not looking away from Bruce, stabbed Diana with it. She gasped from pain and bent down, as Rachel screamed:
"No!"
"Oops," detto Loki, looking at Diana. "My bad. Did that hurt?" he twisted the blade, and Diana let out a scream.
Bruce rushed towards him, but before he reached him, Loki was grabbed da something and thrown about five meters behind Bruce. Tony was in the air in front of Smiley, lowering down, he was wearing his red and yellow iron armor and mask.
"Maybe te should do that to your own dick once in a while." Tony detto humorously, landing in front of Diana. Bruce turned to face Loki as he got up.
"I'm guessing the whole party will be here soon." Loki was panting a bit, but smirked when he looked at Rachel.
"Don't even think-" Bruce was halfway successivo to Loki when he detto that, but Loki successivo to Rachel, holding his spear and aiming for her throat. But he suddenly fell, right on the spot, into a hole that opened in the ground.All three of them looked over at Smiley, and saw that she was holding a switch under a floorboard, panting and smiling with triumph.
"Found the emergency exit." she said, before collapsing on the ground.
The three of them went pale. They couldn't say anything before Loki appeared in front of them again.
"Shame," he said. "She was a nice girl." He looked over at Diana. "Maybe she's not even dead ye-"
He was overthrown da a figure, rolled onto the ground, and pinned. The figure was Thor.
"Brother." detto Loki. "What a lovely surprise."
"Do te know how stupid te are to come here alone, Loki?" detto Thor.
"Hmmm.... nope. Not really." Loki smiled. Thor held his hammer out , but Loki blocked it with his spear before he could hit him. Then, Loki pushed, and both the hammer and Thor were off Loki, and he dodged Tony's blasts as he approached Rachel.
"You're as they say, tough shit, aren't you?" he asked her.
"Tougher than te think." she said, kicking him unexpectedly in the area. He gasped, just like Diana did when he stabbed he. Then Bruce tackled him, then pinned him to the bacheca successivo to Rachel.
"Tell Joker I say hi." detto Bruce, punching Loki twice on the face. Loki smiled at him through bleeding nose and mouth and laughed.
"Oh, I will." he said, very quickly taking his spear and hitting Rachel, who is now standing successivo to Bruce, hard on her head with its tip, so she passes out. This happens in a matter of seconds. Bruce looks at Rachel, then starts suffocating Loki.
"You're going to wish te never did that."
Loki couldn't breathe, but he took out his spear and aimed for Bruce, only for it to be blasted out of his hand da Tony.
"Yeah, tell me about it." Tony said, placing his hand on Loki's stomach and blasting it. Loki would've screamed, but he couldn't breathe. Bruce and Tony were pushed aside da Thor.
"Let me deal with him." Thor detto as Loki gasped for air. Thor pinned his brother da his shoulders to the wall. And Loki started laughing again.
"You know I came here to mostra te that te have no chance."
"We stopped te once." Thor said. "We'll do it again."
"Oh no, but te see, things changed since last time we met, brother. My spear, for example, it was upgraded, if te haven't noticed how different it looks."
"What are te saying?" snapped Thor.
"You couldn't save two of them from me. How do te propose saving ten più of them from all of us?" And, with that, Loki pushed Thor away and disappeared. Just in time for the rest of the avengers to appear.
"Took te long enough!" Tony shouted at them in frustration.
They took both the girls upstairs to the secondo floor, where they had a medical center in one of the rooms. Katherine, Caroline and Meredith saw them.
"What's going on?" Katherine asked as she followed them into a tent with Meredith and Caroline.
"Loki." answered Natasha.
"He's here?" snapped Caroline.
"You didn't hear anything?" asked Clint.
"We can turn the vampire hearing on o off whenever we-" she paused as she saw Diana's injury. "No."
"She's still breathing." detto Natasha. "We need a doctor."
"I'm a doctor." detto Meredith. "Let me-" she paused as she saw Rachel's head bleeding. "Oh, no, Rachel." she looked at Caroline. "Call Jackson. Our Jackson, the one that came with us. He's also a doctor, he'll help. Quickly!" Caroline nodded and disappeared.
"We don't need a doctor." detto Katherine. "Vampire blood can heal humans, let me heal them." she detto as she rushed towards Diana.
"Only through my dead body." Tony blocked her way.
"She's dying, genius, both of them are. And they're the last people I'd want to hurt even if I did want to hurt anyone here, did we o did we not make a deal?"Caroline appeared with Jackson and Albie.
"Where are they?" detto Jackson.
"Let me heal her." Katherine detto to Tony. "Both of them." she looked over at Bruce as he exchanged looks with Tony, and Tony backed away. Katherine leaned in front of Diana, bit her wrist and tilted Diana's head up.
"Come on," she said. "Drink, come on." She drank, but the wound didn't heal.
"What's going on?" detto Caroline. "Why isn't she healing?"
"I don't know." detto Katherine. shocked, but still trying to feed Diana her blood, shouting:
"Come on!"
"Loki detto his spear was upgraded." detto Thor. "Maybe...."
Katherine pulled her wrist away and faced Meredith, saying:
"Heal both of them, for both our sakes." Meredith nodded.
Fifteen minuti later, the tent was empty but Meredith, Jackson, and of course, Rachel and Diana. Everyone else were outside, waiting.
"I just can't believe it." detto Sophie "They might...." she placed her face in her hands.
"Don't say that." detto Emily, rubbing Sophie's shoulder. "Have hope. They'll be okay." Sophie smiled at her.
Meredith came out, and Bruce and Tony got up the quickest.
"It's bad." detto Meredith said. "Diana was stabbed as far as her spine, a lot of internal and external bleeding, so she Lost a lot of blood. And Rachel was hit in the middle of her head… also a lot of internal bleeding, più than external, and perhaps a serious head trauma. I'm surprised how are both of them still alive, actually." She took a deep breath, tearing up, before slowly adding "Both their conditions are fatal."
Everyone just stood there, pale faced, shocked and hoping this all is just a bad dream.
"How did this happen?" Bruce was the first one to speak, though his voice was breaking.
"He did 't hit Rachel that hard. He hit her hard, but not to the point of this. And he didn't stab Diana that deep, either. Just with the point of the spear."
"The spear." Tony realized. "Upgraded."
"So, what do we do now?" asked Banner.
"We save them." detto Bruce. "I'm not backing down."
"Neither are we." detto Villy.
"Another reason to get blood bags." detto Katherine, and everyone nodded.
The group decided to divide their missions. Stefan, Katherine, Damon, Barton and Natasha would go out to the nearest town and nearest hospital to get bloodbags. Caroline, Elena, Meredith and Jackson would monitor Rachel and Diana's stability 24/7, and try the vampire blood one più time if things got worse.
The others were supposed to plan a strategy to take down Loki, and the girls were supposed to be waiting.
Meredith sighed and got out of the medical center to talk to Bruce and Tony, who she knew were waiting outside.
"Rachel needs surgery. Now", she said. "And so does Diana."
"What are te gonna do?" Bruce asked immediately.
"Rachel has a lot of bleeding in her brain, and I need to drill a hole to relieve some of the pressure", she said.
Bruce buried his head in his hands, muttering something about how it was his fault.
Tony turned to look at Meredith, waiting.
"For Diana I can't know what organs were damaged da the spear before I get in there and do damage control", she said. "But at this point.. It would have been better if the vampire blood had healed them."
"Yeah, I'll say", Tony detto weakly and watched as Meredith walked back into the medical center.
"I am going to kill Loki", he announced.
"Get in line."
Katherine travelled around the hospital, grabbing a few blood bags. She couldn't help but to worry about Diana, and even Rachel. She'd finally made a friend, and now she could die.
"Katherine", Elena walked over to her.
"What?"
"I just found my sister. She can't die", Elena said.
"That's why we're here", Katherine snapped.
"Could Klaus' blood heal her better? Heal them better?"
Katherine turned to look at Elena.
"Klaus can heal a werewolf bite! He is special", Elena said, grabbing onto Katherine arm. "Tell me it would work."
Katherine sighed, actually feeling compassion towards her doppelgänger. "Klaus can heal a werewolf bite because he is a hybrid. It's got nothing to do with injuries like this."
"It's worth giving it a shot, though", Stefan detto from the doorway, and Katherine turned to look at him in surprise.
"They can't die. Elena's right", he continued. "We have to reach out to Klaus."
"His blood won't work", Katherine insisted.
"Then te can tell us te told us so", Elena detto before following Stefan out of the room and out of the hospital.
Katherine groaned, shoving a bag full of blood bags and then following them.
"What if they die?" Aline asked softly. The girls were in their room, no one saying o doing anything.
"They won't", Ems said.
"What if they do?" Albie suddenly asked. "What happens then? Because if they die, then-"
"Then we have to leave", Sara detto suddenly. "We can't stay here. They detto they'd protect us and look at what's happened! Klaus, Lucifer, Loki and god knows who are coming here anyway. We're sitting ducks!"
"We have to trust them", Aria detto quietly. "We have to trust that they know best."
"Why?" Atie asked suddenly. "Because te think the Winchesters are cute o something?"
"Shut up!" Marty raised her voice. "We are not going to turn against each other, not now! Our Friends need us, so let's just sit down and pray for whatever god it is that te all believe in."
"Wait!" Caroline got off the phone and stopped Meredith from starting to prep Rachel into surgery.
"What?" she asked.
"We have one più idea", Caroline said. "Klaus' blood. It's a long shot and it probably won't even help, but they think that if I go and negotiate with him-"
"He'll just negotiate a deal to get access to Rachel's blood", Bruce detto as he and Tony walked into the medical center. They both stopped in their tracks as they saw the women they cared about lying helplessly on hospital beds, unconscious.
"It is a shot", Meredith said. "And it is a risk I am willing to take. Bruce", he turned to look at her. "Rachel is my best friend, has been for years. And she would want this, she would want te to try. She would be willing to give all her blood to Klaus in exchange for Diana's life, if that's what it takes."
"But it will not be what it takes!" Bruce raised his voice. "You have no idea how long it took me to find her. Find someone who I care about unconditionally, and who actually, for once, sees me just as me, not as the Batman."
"Bruce", Tony grabbed his arm, but Bruce shook it off, shaking his head. "No. I'm staying right here."
Caroline nodded. "I'll go meet the others outside."
"It will not work", Castiel said. They all turned to look at him. He'd appeared in front of them like he'd been there all along. "Niklaus cannot save them. But I can."
Tony took a breath. "You're an angel."
"Yes", Castiel detto it as if it was an obvious thing. "Shall I?"
"Will they have any permanent damage?" Bruce asked.
"No, I don't think so."
"THEN WHY HAVE te NOT ALREADY DONE IT?"
Castiel looked at Bruce in concern before walking over to Rachel's letto and placing his palm at the superiore, in alto of her head. There was a bright light for only a secondo and then it was gone. Nothing seemed to have changed, but Castiel seemed to think it was all ok, for he moved towards Diana and did the same for her.
"It is done", he said. "It might take them a while to wake up. And Loki's spear, it is special, I deducted a light resistance as I healed them, so it is possible that.. some injury will be left to be dealt with."
"Like what?" Tony asked.
"There is a chance that Rachel will be fuzzy about details of her life. For a while."
"She'll lose her memory?" Bruce asked angrily.
"I don't know. We'll see. And as for Diana, it'll be hard for her to walk for a while. But other than that, I think they will be fine."
"Thank you", Meredith detto gratefully.
Castiel nodded and left the room.
"Should te call the others off from talking to Klaus?" Tony asked.
Caroline sighed. "They're already there. I'll go and try to shoo Klaus off, but once he's called...", she didn't finish her sentence, just ran off in her vampire speed.
"You guys can stay here with the girls while we go tell the others", Jackson detto as he and Meredith left the room.
"All this for two girls", Tony detto quietly as he sat successivo to Diana's bed.
"They're pretty special girls", Bruce said.
"Yeah", Tony nodded.
Meredith was walking to the girls' room, when she saw them walking the opposite direction towards the center.
"Cas told us the story." detto Soph "We just want to be there when they wake up." Meredith nodded and gestured the girls to follow her, but Bonnie appeared in their way.
"What Cas told you," she said. "It's somewhat true. But his blade is even more… special than he thinks."
"What do te mean?" asked Meredith.
"When he told te Rachel might have her memory erased and Diana won't be able to walk for a while, it's way più than that."
The girls tensed and all gave her the same scared but curious look.
"More than that, in a somewhat good way." Bonnie continued. "Loki's spear, it's not what he calls upgraded just like that. He used a witch to do it."
"And how do te know that?" asked Meredith.
"I can tell just da looking at their wounds. Anyways,"
Bruce and Tony sat in silence. Less than a minuto has passed, but it felt like forever for both of them.
"Aren't they supposed to wake up now?" Bruce detto impatiently, looking over at Rachel.
"Apparently." detto Tony. Bruce sighed.
"You know," he said. "I meant it, when I detto I cared about her. I don't know, I've known her for less than two days, and I still care for her that much for some reason. Maybe it's because she sees me for what I actually am, not my mask and armor. But she has this… this gravity that just keeps on pulling me towards her. And if anything happens to her…" he trailed off, holding back tears now.
Back with the girls, Bonnie continued.
"when a witch uses her powers on an object, she enchants it."
"I hear you." detto Tony quietly back in the tent, looking at Diana. "When Pepper and I broke up, I thought everything I ever fought for was over. I nearly died for her countless times." He looked back at Bruce. "But I never felt this for her."
"She bewitches it."
"What?" whispered Bruce, looking helplessly at Tony.
"This. This attraction, gravity you're talking about. I never felt that for her." He looked at Diana once more. "But with her…" he trailed off, and started tearing up, too.
"Certain objects, very rare objects, can store the witch's powers."
"When it comes to it," detto Bruce. "We'll be the ones who kill that son of a bitch."
"Loki used the powers to make the his spear stronger, but it's one of the objects which stores the powers. When he used it to kill Rachel and Diana, the powers were channeled. it was going to work as he planned, but then Cas saved them, they weren't going to die anymore."
"What are te saying?" Meredith asked.
"Hell yes." Tony looked at Bruce. "I want that bastard's head on a stake."
"Cas saved them, they're alright now, with witch powers inside them."
Diana bolted upright and gasped for air. Tony and Bruce Flinched and turned to look at her, but couldn't sposta after what they saw. Her eyes were fully red, they met a Demon with red eyes not a while ago, his name was Crowley, but that couldn't possibly be the case.
"Wh-what's happening?" Diana looked around, everything was in red, as if she was swimming in a pool of blood. But then her eyes closed shut, and when she opened them again, everything looked normal. She looked at Tony in confusion.
"What are you-" she felt blood rising up her throat before she could finish, and she started choking.
Tony rushed to her and patted her on her back as she leaned forward, she didn't choke but started vomiting the blood out.
Bruce looked at them for a few seconds, slightly confused, slightly relieved, but then his glance went to Rachel, who was still unconscious.
"Rachel-" he was cut off da the sound of her gasping when she bolted up. Rachel's eyes were yellow, Sam and Dean told them about a yellow-eyed demon, but they killed him long ago.
"What's- what's going on?" Rachel saw everything in yellow, as if swimming in some kind of acid. Then, her eyes closed and reopened just like Diana's, and she started vomiting blood all the same, and Bruce, just like Tony, patted her on her back.
The Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. and the rest of the gang were negotiating with Klaus just outside the shield again.
"And how do te know my blood will heal them?" he asked.
"We don't." detto Elena. Klaus looked at all of them and smirked.
"So you're willing to risk everything to save something you're not even sure can be saved."
"We'll do anything for them not to die." detto Stefan.
"Oh, but I'll kill your doppelgänger anyways and te all know it." Caroline appeared before anyone could say anything more.
"Never mind, Klaus, they're healed. Thank you, though." Katherine looked at her.
"How?" she asked.
"Cas."
"Castiel." Klaus said. "The angel, right?"
"Yeah." detto Caroline. "Now can we go back to dealing with Lu-"
Klaus held up two blood bags to her.
"My blood." He said. "Just in case anything happens." He smiled at Caroline.
Caroline hesitated before taking them.
"So, when am I meeting the girls?" asked Klaus.
"You're not." Katherine snapped.
"Of course I am." Klaus looked at her and smiled. "Like I said, one, Ines, is tempting."
"How do te know her name?" Damon asked.
"Again, like I said," Klaus smirked at him. "I have a witch." And then, he disappeared into the woods.
The girls and Jackson stormed into the room just in time for Rachel and Diana to recover themselves.
"Oh my god." detto Sophie as she noticed the two huge puddles of blood on the floor.
"It's fine." detto Tony, wiping Diana's mouth. "Everything's fine."
"What happened?" Rachel looked at Bruce. "Loki hit me and then-"
"And then te got better." He smiled at her.
"But, he didn't hit me hard… though it felt hard…"
"He didn't stab me deep either, but it felt deep alright." detto Diana.
"Loki's blade is special." detto Bruce. "Well, te can say it was upgraded."
"There's one più thing," detto Albie.
"Help me up." Diana told Tony, standing up.
"No, don't walk." Tony said, supporting her. "You can't- ouch!" Diana had placed her hand on his shoulder for support, but it somehow burned him. She jerked it away, jumping up and standing as if she was never stabbed.
"What the-?" she looked at Tony's arm, his skin was bund in her palm's shape. Tony looked at her in confusion, covering his burn with his hand. Diana was looking at him with the same confused look in her eyes. She looked around and saw a mirror. When she walked up to it and placed her palm on the glass, it steamed then popped in a couple of seconds.
Rachel, and everyone else, flinched at that, and a chair in front of Rachel's letto blew into pieces. Everyone flinched again, and looked at the now destroyed chair. No one could find any figure of speech, they were all dumbstruck, looking at Rachel and Diana.
"Did…" detto Rachel "Did I just do that?" She looked over at a wooden piece of the chair that fell successivo to her bed. She focused and concentrated on it, and in less than a second, it blew into tiny pieces.
"The witch powers." detto Bonnie. And everyone turned to look at her. "Loki's blade was bewitched, it's one of the objects that stores the witch's power and it passed to-"
"To us?" detto Diana. "So we're witches now?" she touched the end of the plastic on Rachel's bed, but when she looked over, it didn't burn. She looked at Rachel, then back at her hand. She focused on it, and it burned. She focused on reducing it, and it stopped burning. She could control it, just like Rachel could control her whatever that was.
"You're not witches." detto Bonnie. "You just have these… Supernatural powers." She turned to look at the rest of the girls. "And I'll channel them to you."
Rachel blinked once o twice before burying her head in her hands. "What the hell does that mean?"
"It means that I can give all of te powers", Bonnie explained.
"I think this is enough for now", Tony detto as he observed the shocked look on Diana's face.

A few hours later, the girls woke up to a knock on the door.
"What? Noo", Albie muttered, laying back down on the bed. "I can't. No."
"Girls, sorry, it's early, but we've got plans for all of te today", Steve detto as he opened the door. "Sorry if someone's naked."
"Maybe te should have asked that before walking in", Marty said, getting up from the bed. "Where are we going?"
"We're going to train you", Steve smiled. "So, 10 minutes. Get dressed. We'll eat breakfast and then start."
Rachel turned to look at Smiley, who was on her bed, staring off into the distance.
"Hey, te still thinking about Tony?" she smiled.
"Katherine, actually. I think we just became Friends last night."
Rachel's eyes narrowed. "Katherine? My doppelgänger vampire? You're serious?"
Smiley turned to look at her. "Look, it has nothing to do with te o the fact-"
"Or the fact that she wants me dead?"
"A lot of people want all of us dead! She was protecting te last night with Klaus", Smiley detto quickly.
Rachel sighed. "Okay. Sorry. I'm gonna.. hit the shower."
Smiley groaned, getting up from the letto and walking towards the wardrobe. "So what to wear? Something hot o something comfortable?"
"We're gonna be eating breakfast with the guys before training with the guys", Aria said. "So I'd say both."
"Agreed."
The girls arrived to the cafeteria, which all the girls apart from raggio, ray have seen. And all their jaws dropped, Smiley and Ron were the happiest.
"Bloody hell!" Ron announced, digging in.
The place was crowded, actually. Hold on. The girls' Friends were there, too.
"Hey", Rachel walked over to Meredith and hugged her. "Are te ok?"
"Yeah, it wasn't so bad actually in the room, we got Cibo and stuff. That guy with the eye patch says we should stay out of your hair for a while, so they've got the room più comfy for us and apparently we can go and stroll around if we want, as long as we don't touch anything."
"Why won't they just send te back?" Rachel asked in confusion.
Meredith shook her shoulders. "So, what's wrong?"
"Nothing."
"Tell that to your face", Meredith detto seriously. "Tell me."
And so she filled her friend in on everything going on in her life - again.
Albie took a sede, sedile successivo to Seth and smiled. "So, how do I look? How's my hair?"
"Why? Are te looking to hook up with the prince of your dreams in a place like this?" he asked in disbelief. "These guys are jerks."
Albie chuckled. "No, I just.. want to look pretty", she turned to look at Jackson, who was sitting on her other side. "Do I look ok?"
"I think te look beautiful", Jackson smiled after a moment of silence.
Albie smirked at him before turning to eat her food.
"So, anything te want to tell me?" Stefan walked to stand successivo to Katherine, who was eating a fragola from a bowl.
"Yes. That color does not bring out your eyes, Stef." Katherine smirked.
"Damon told me about how te acted last night in the forest with Klaus", Stefan crossed his arms.
Katherine rolled her eyes. "Yes, I defended the stupid little doppelgänger of mine. te know why can't I, for once, have a doppelgänger who actually has a spine and can take care of herself?"
"I don't think te know anything about Rachel. But this is not about her", Stefan continued. "I think te were protecting Diana."
Katherine sighed. "You heard the conversation between me and her last night."
"No, I did", Damon smirked. "Very sweet, indeed. If I didn't know any better, I'd think you've switched sides. And I am not talking about the good and the bad guys here."
Katherine chuckled. "I'm 500 years old, Damon. Don't te think I ever tried it out with a girl? Not my cup of tea. I'm helping Diana because she is my friend."
Damon laughed out loud.
"What?" Katherine snapped.
"You don't have friends, Katherine", Damon detto harshly before walking away.
Stefan sighed. "He's right. Tell me te don't have a secret agenda."
"I don't have a secret agenda", Katherine said.
Stefan nodded and watched as she walked away.
"Hey", Rachel walked over to Stefan and smirked. "So, do Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. eat?"
"Occasionally. I do", Stefan smiled.
Rachel nodded and then tensed a little. "So.. Elena, te and her were..?"
"Yeah", he nodded.
"And te and Katherine, too?"
Stefan chuckled a little. "A long time ago."
Rachel grimaced a little. "So, who do te think about when te look at me, then?"
Stefan thought for a moment before saying: "Just you."
Rachel gave him a small smile before walking off to talk to Ems.
After breakfast, all the girls joined Nick and the others in the biggest gym they'd ever seen.
"So, as te all know, there are several death threats on your lives. più on some than others", his gaze moved to Rachel, who rolled her eyes. "So we think all of te should be able to defend yourselves. First Dean and Sam here are going to give te a training in how to kill demons and other.. monsters. With the help of the lovely Meg."
"Who is a demon herself", Meg detto as she, Dean and Sam got to the center of the room.
"Now, if te wanna kill a demon, for example, there are many ways. The most simple is performing an exorcism, sending it back to hell", Sam said, mostrare a book in his hand. "Dean and I remember the right words to say da heart, but te girls, homework", he threw the book at them, and Aria caught it.
"And will this work against Lucifer?" Smiley asked doubtfully.
"No", Meg said. "Unfortunately not. Lucifer is an Angel that was banned from heaven. He created demons. Let's continue."
It took them about half an ora to get through the monster training and then it was time for some actual combat training.
"Okay, so", Bruce got in the front with Tony and spoke: "You will all of course have pistole to use, but physical combat is important. Especially when you-"
"Are horny", Tony said, and that made a few of the girls laugh.
Bruce looked at him in disbelief and when Tony turned to look at him, he asked: "What?"
"They're.. kids", Bruce whispered.
Rachel narrowed her eyes at this. She sure as hell didn't feel like a kid while talking to him.
"Whatever. Grab a partner and fight a little and we'll observe and soon come help", Tony detto simply.
Diana and Rachel walked successivo to each other and Diana sighed.
"I'm sorry about Katherine. But it's got nothing to do with you."
"I'm gonna hit te now. And it's got nothing to with you, either", Rachel snapped, and threw a punch, punzone which Diana missed da inches.
"Hey, whoa", Diana laughed a little, and Rachel broke into a smile as well. "Come on, throw another punch. I can take it."
Rachel nodded and punched Diana on the nose. Gladly it didn't break and a nose bleed did not start, but Diana actually let out a little scream.
"Not bad, girl", she chuckled. "My turn", she kicked Rachel so she fell to the floor, her head slamming against it.
"Oh my God, don't be dead", Diana chuckled, and she saw that Rachel was laughing.
"This is too weird", she stated. "I am not in a secret government base doing combat training with one of my best friends! I am not!"
"Yeah, te are", Diana smirked as she helped her up.
Suddenly she felt arms avvolgere around her from behind and gasped as she heard Tony's voice in her ear.
"You are supposed to mind your surroundings", he whispered. Actually Bruce had told him that, but it seemed like a good pick-up line.
Rachel smirked at the scene in front of her, and backed away a little.
"Let go of me", Smiley detto quietly.
"Make me", Tony said.
And Smiley did. She did a flip she'd learned on TV and soon Tony was on the floor with Smiley sitting on superiore, in alto of him.
"Wow. Ok, I'm impressed", Tony said, kind of breathless.
Diana smirked, leaning a little closer before standing up and walking back to Rachel.
"I think it's now time for us to help", Bruce detto as he joined the scene, helping Tony up.
Rachel gave him a smile and said: "You are going to help me."
"I am?" Bruce smiled.
"You are. Let's go."
"This is just hilarious." Villy chuckled as she blocked a punch, punzone from Em.
"Like it o not, I get to hit you." Em punched her on the jaw, not hard. It didn't come on fully; Villy dodged, but Em was wearing a stud ring, and it scratched her.
"Sorry." Em shrugged her shoulders, and had the look on her face as if she broke a vase. Villy touched her scratch.
"You know, it's good te never take that ring off. It can actually be useful now." Em twisted it on her finger.
"Yeah, I guess. How did it scratch you, though?"
Villy barely shook her shoulders when she felt arms pinning her to the ground, and saw Dean looking down at her, holding her da her shoulders.
"Combat rule number one: never get off track."
Villy smirked and nodded at Em, who quickly pinned Dean to the ground successivo to her.
"Combat rule number two:" detto Emily. "don't combat when you're outnumbered."
"Combat rule number three:" Villy flipped to her side and whispered in his ear "always keep a lookout for your back." she then got up.
"Not bad." detto Dean, standing up.
"Yeah," detto Villy, kicking him in the stomach and smirking. "I know."
"Alright." Sam and Aria were in a target room successivo to the gym. Sam offered to teach her how to kill demons with the coltello they have, and she agreed. They were standing in front of a small target and Aria was holding a dart.
"Hit the target." Sam said.
Aria looked at the dart target a few feet away from them. Aria was actually very good at darts, she beat quite a few people. She lifted the dart, and with a veloce, swift move, threw the dart at the red dot in the middle.
Sam smiled at her. "This won't be hard." and she smiled back.
"Okay." he clapped his hands together, turned around and started walking to a bigger target. He stood behind a small tavolo a few meters away from a big target. Aria came successivo to him as he grabbed a knife. "Sometimes, te have to kill a demon from a distance. They can be very quick, not as vampires, but quicker than humans, so we have to act fast. Now," he straightens his back, "you keep your eyes on the target. Like Dean and I explained, a demon dies if te stab it with the coltello Dean has, o an Angel knife. And it has to be either deep enough, o in the heart. te don't know how deep it will come from a distance, so aim for the heart."
Aria was eyeing him, half listening, half looking at him and wondering; after all the weight he put on his shoulders, after saving the world so many times, he's still willing to risk everything for it, why? Isn't he tired?
"So, don't lose track. And just..." the coltello hit the red dot in the middle. "Aim."
"Can te do it?" He asked Aria as she took a deep breath,
"I'll try." she said, grabbing a knife.
"Think of it as a game of darts. And keep your eyes on the target."
Aria aimed for the target, focusing on it. She felt Sam held her back, straightening her up smoothly, and Aria stopped breathing.
"It's easier when your back is straight." he said. "You may not have time for that when te actually do this, but it will eventually get into habit." Aria caught her breath, swallowed, and managed to say:
"Got it." Sam let go of her, although still slightly touching her back absentmindedly with one hand. She tried to block him out, it was hard. As she aimed for the target and hit it with the same veloce, swift movement Sam did, it hit a point on the white cerchio around the red dot.
"Dammit." she scoffed.
"You're doing great." Sam Smiled reassuringly, and that made Aria smile, too.
"Okay." Bruce said. "Hit me, then."
Rachel smirked. She would've hit him on the side of his head with her leg, but he blocked her, smirking. "That's it?"
"Don't even dream of it." detto raggio, ray as she quickly put her leg down and almost punched him in his stomach, except that he blocked her again.
"So, now that's it?" he kept on smirking as Rachel rolled her eyes.
"You can be really annoying." she said. Bruce snickered a little, then twisted Rachel's hand he blocked, so she spun and held her. Her body was fully against his, his left hand holding her softly under her ribs, and his right hand still holding hers.
"Now," he says in her ear. "Here I can either throw te on the ground, break your neck, or..." he glanced at Tony. Rachel could feel his breath on hers, and her body against his felt somehow stronger, but più fable all the same. If she ever felt there's anything between her and Bruce, she felt it there.
"Team work." Bruce finished, smirking again. Tony returned the smirk, and slow-motioned hitting Rachel on the head, not really hitting her.
"And you're out." detto Tony.
Rachel winked at Diana standing behind Tony, and she nodded.
"Yeah, not really." detto Diana. And as Tony turned to look at her, she threw a punch, stronger than she'd expected.
"Ow!" Tony let out. Smiley kicked his legs, so he fell. And as he fell out of the way, Rachel flipped Bruce over her, landing him on the ground, too. She leaned forward, looking at him from upside down. "Team work." she smirked as she stood up and high-fived Smiley.
The guys laughed, both on the ground successivo to each other.
"I think we did well." detto Bruce.
"Are te kidding?" detto Tony, "We did awesome."
After training, the girls got to have lunch in the cafeteria again. They were all sitting on a huge tavolo pulled together of smaller tables.
Rachel was eating a slice of pizza and laughing with Ems when Elena slowly walked over to her.
"Hey", she detto carefully.
Rachel turned to look at her in confusion. "Something wrong?"
"No, I just..", Elena looked at her with an equal amount of confusion. "Can we talk?"
"Why?" Rachel asked.
"Just follow me", Elena muttered and gestured for her to unisciti her in the hall, which Rachel did.
"What?"
"You're my sister, Rachel", Elena detto in disbelief. "And te seem like.. te don't care."
"Look, this is all too much right now", Rachel detto quietly. "I get that you're my sister, but.. What am I supposed to do about it? Bake te a cake? 'Cause I'm not a very good baker."
Elena sighed. "I'm sorry it had to come out like this. But I didn't know te until like a few weeks ago-"
"And te march in with your vampire army ready to hand me over to Klaus, huh? Thanks, sister."
"Hey", Elena grabbed her arm, maybe a little too harshly. "We are trying to protect you."
"Hey", Stefan got out of the meeting room and got between the twins. "What's going on?"
"Nothing", Rachel detto quietly. "Elena and I were just having a little.. bonding moment."
"How sweet", Damon detto as he joined the scene with a smirk on his face. "You know, this is really getting confusing, three of te girls. Tell me.. What was your name?"
"Her name is Rachel", Katherine detto as she and Smiley walked over to the group. "Back off, Damon."
"It's ok, I can take care of myself", Rachel said.
"Oh, can you?" Damon asked in amusement. "You think you're so tough, but what te really are is a little cagna who-"
Damon didn't have time to finish his sentence when Rachel grabbed a syringe from her pocket full of water dipped in vervain. She injected the needle into Damon's neck, and he screamed.
Katherine looked at Rachel, impressed. "Well, who taught you?"
"I did", Bruce detto as he walked over to them. "Are te ok?"
Rachel nodded, taking the needle out. "Just for the record", she detto to Damon, who turned to look at her with an evil glance. "I don't think te deserve Atie. Not one single bit."
With that she walked back into the cafeteria with Katherine, Smiley and Bruce right behind her.
"You did well", Katherine smirked. "Diana, I can see why te keep this one around."
Rachel gave her a small smile before sitting at the table. "That was.. scary. I thought he was gonna kill me."
"Wait till te meet Klaus", Dean said. "Then you'll be really scared."
"That's not exactly helping, gorgeous", Katherine detto lazily before grabbing a slice of pizza as well. "I think that we should make a deal with Klaus. Trick him."
"How?" Bruce asked in confusion.
"We have the advantage of three Rachel-looking people here", Katherine said. "I'm saying that could be used at some point."
"Maybe we could trick them", Sam said. "Make it seem like either one of te two would be Rachel-", he paused. "No. He'd smell you. Or, not smell you."
"Way to shoot the horse of hope in the face, Sam", Rachel said. "It's okay, I'll handle it on my own."
"I thought te detto te wanted to fight", Bruce detto carefully.
"I do. But we're not fighting. We're hiding."
"We're training to fight."
"Same difference."
"Ok, kids, take it outside", Meg detto as she entered the scene. "Bruce, Dean, Sam, we need you. We're having a.. più private meeting about how to deal with this Klaus situation. Lower floor conference room."
"And I was not invited?" Katherine asked in disbelief. "After all we've done for te people!"
"We need to consider the possibility that te cannot be trusted. What if Klaus is out there right now, breaking through the shields with some witch mumbo jumbo?" Meg snapped.
"I am telling you, Elijah, he can be trusted. If we could get to him alone..", Katherine said.
"With all due respect, miss Pierce, I am pretty sure you're only trusting this Elijah because te and him had an affair once upon a time", Dean said.
"Don't te try to read me, te little human", Katherine snapped.
"Ok, that is enough!" Bruce detto angirly. "We'll go downstairs and te Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. stay up here and protect the.. humans."
Katherine scoffed and watched at the guys walked off with Meg.
"Calm down", Diana said. "I'm sure they're just thinking over the situation."
"We have a problem", Nick detto as soon as the door closed in the conference room.
"What is it?" Tony asked.
"Loki has been sighted", Thor said.
"What? Where?" Natasha asked in confusion.
"New York. We do not know what he wants o why is he there, but we're pretty sure it's got something to do with Thor", Nick said.
"This does not help at all", Bruce sighed. "We've already got Lucifer and Klaus to worry about."
"That's not all", Nick said.
"What?"
"There's someone with him", Steve detto quietly.
"Who?" Bruce narrowed his eyes, but when he saw that everyone was looking at him, he knew exactly who they were talking about.
"No!", was all he detto before standing up in frustration.
Damon was walking down the hall, towards their bedrooms when Atie suddenly stopped him.
"Wait", she said, and he turned to look at her curiously.
"I was told to stay away from you", he detto lazily.
"By who?" Atie asked in disbelief.
"By your friend, the third cagna in the row", Damon detto sarcastically.
"Rachel."
"If that's what te call her. I call her cagna 3.0", he turned to look at Atie. "What do te want?"
"I was just wondering..", Atie took a breath. "Why does Klaus want to create hybrids so bad?"
Damon paused to think about this. "I actually don't... know. Maybe he's lonely. te should ask Stefan, he knows him better. o Katherine."
"I'm asking you", Atie found herself saying, and Damon looked at her with those blue eyes of his and smiled a little.
Just when Atie was going to say something, he shushed her.
"What?" Atie whispered.
"Come with me", Damon took her hand and Atie hated herself, because her cuore skipped a beat when he did so.
They got down to the lower level of the base and found themselves in front of the closed door where the meeting was going on. They could hear everything.
"I don't think that!" they heard Tony's raised voice.
"Then te are an idiot!" Bruce shouted back. "Loki might be a bad guy, but he is not criminally insane! He doesn't enjoy inflicting pain on others! The Joker does! And if he finds out I'm here-"
"Because this is all about you, isn't it, Wayne?" Natasha snapped.
"No", Bruce said, a little breathless. "But I am the one who stopped Joker's plans, the one who locked him up. And he always detto sick stuff like.. that I.. completed him o something. If he finds me, he finds all of us. He finds.. them. And nothing good can come out of it."
Everyone went silent.
"And now they're working together", Banner detto quietly. "Why don't we just all call it a giorno and go home? We have got four major threats coming after us. And what are we supposed to do? Fight? We can barely handle it now, and no one has even attacked yet."
"I agree. The girls are like children. They run around everywhere, get themselves in trouble. And it doesn't help that some of te have set your eyes on them, romantically!" Meg snapped.
"What the hell do te mean da that?" Dean shouted.
"I think te know, te horny little-"
"STOP IT!" Nick shouted, and everyone went silent. "That's enough. Now te will go back to keeping the situation in order. Train the girls, deal with Klaus. One problem at a time. And we cannot let those Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. know that we are never going to include them in the plan. That would only result in chaos."
"True, but like Sam and I said, never trust a monster", Dean said.
"Thanks a lot, asshole", Meg snapped.
"You are not a monster", Castiel said.
"Thanks, Clarence."
Damon stepped away from the doorway and Atie followed.
"Damon!"
"I have to talk about this with Stefan", he said. "Don't tell the girls what te heard. Don't. I'll talk to te later", with that he was gone.
Atie trusted Damon, but she sure as hell was not going to keep something like this from her friends. So she ran upstairs to tell the news.
The girls were done with eating and decided to enjoy their new room. Marty, Effy, and Villy were relaxing on the couch, exploring the new TV (that switches channel da hand motion); Albie was sitting on the new computer with Jack, Jess and Seth; Rachel was mostrare Meredith and Harry how to turn the comforts of the room on o off; Smiley was lying on one of the bunk beds, talking to Katherine; Emily, Sara and Aria were invading the closet; and Aline, Soph and Ines were looking over different types of jacuzzi modes while Lorelai was using a massage chair they also had in the bathroom.
The door quickly opened, and Atie burst in. Some looked in her direction.
"Where have te been?" asked Marty.
"I've got something." detto Atie.
"Guys," she shouted to the ones in the bathroom. "Guys come out!" she called the ones in the closet. They came out at the same time.
"What is it?" asked Aline.
"Listen," Albie, Seth, Jack and Jess joined everyone as they sat on the divano and chairs in the middle.
"The Avengers apparently spotted this Loki guy, with this Joker, too." detto Atie.
"And we have what to do with that?" asked Effie.
"This means più trouble for us." Atie said. "And-" she paused.
"And..." detto Katherine "what?"
Atie let out a breath. "And they're-"
She was interrupted da Elena entering the room.
"Katherine, we need you." she said.
"I'm a little busy now, Elena."
"Katherine, it's important." Katherine rolled her eyes.
"Go." detto Diana. "I'll tell te everything later."
Katherine nodded, looked at Elena, detto "Fine." and they both disappeared in a second, closing the door behind them.
"So, what is it?" asked Villy.
"Damon must've told them already." Atie was still looking at the door.
"Damon?" detto Rachel. "Told them what, Atie?"
Atie looked back at them. "They're not including the Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. in the plan. Especially now that Loki and that Joker guy showed up. And they didn't want them to find out, Nick detto it would cause chaos. Damon and I heard them, and now they probably told Katherine."
Just as soon as she finished, the computer started an alarm and flashed a red light from the superiore, in alto of its screen, at the same time, the door opened, and Caroline came in.
"We need a-" she turned to the computer. "What is that?"
Jess got up to check it "I helped Albie, Jackson and Seth hack in to their surveillance cameras. Whenever these detect human-like movement, they let out an alarm. And this computer even has a light just in case someone's deaf." Everyone followed him.
"I never knew te could hack." detto Aline
"You can call it my hidden talent." he smirked at her, turning the alarm off.
"Hacking? Seriously?" Lorelai said.
"Mom." Aline looked at her.
"Does it sound bright to you, Al-" Lorelai was cut off da Caroline.
"Is that.... Tyler?"
"Who?" almost everyone asked at once.
"And.... Bonnie, Matt, and... Jeremy? And who are those guys?"
"Uhm..." detto Soph "Yeah not quite catching up with you, there." Caroline walked over to Aria and Sara.
"Come with me." she took both their hands.
"Wha-" Aria couldn't finish, but they were already out.
Caroline took them to the rest of the Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. in the basement.
"Where have you-" Stefan started, but asked "Why?" when he saw Aria and Sara with her.
"They hacked into the surveillance cameras, and saw Tyler and Bonnie coming."
"They did say they'll catch up later." detto Elena
"Jeremy's with them, too." Caroline said. "And Matt, and a handful of other people I've never seen before."
"So what do te want from us?" asked Sara.
Their "basement", believe it o not, was actually pretty cool like their own room. They didn't have bunk beds so it was bigger, and their beds were on the other side; the walls were dark blue, they had the same plasma tv but two computers; and two big leather couches and chairs instead of cuscino seats; their closet was empty, though as big as theirs. And the bathroom had two showers and three sinks in addition to the Jacuzzi. They could see the bathroom because it had a glass door.
"We just want to mostra Tyler you're here and safe. He's with us, te have nothing to worry about." detto Caroline.
"Yeah, because we trust te so much." detto Aria sarcastically.
"This is a bad-" Katherine started, but was cut off da Damon.
"Too bad." And, in a second, he and the two girls were gone.
He appears in the forest with the girls, and,in a flash all the other Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. appear successivo to them. They were outside the shield.
"Take them back inside." detto Katherine to Damon, her tone was threatening.
"Give it a break, Katherine" Damon detto in a bored tone. "Stop trying to act like te care, we all know te never did and never will. So drop the act."
Katherine was about to say something, but was interrupted da Tyler, who just appeared with two più people.
"Can we cut off the drama now?" he said. Everyone turned to look at him.
"Tyler!" Caroline rushed up to him and hugged him, he hugged back.
"Thank God, I was so worried." detto Caroline. "Where's Bonnie? And Matt and Jeremy?" she let go and looked at the two other men with him. "And...?"
"Jeremy and the rest are catching up. I heard te two" he looked at Damon and Katherine. "start arguing so we took a shortcut."
"Took a shortcut?" Caroline asked, confused.
"Used our wolfspeed."
"Wait, so they're werewolves?" Stefan asked.
One of the men was about to say something, but a brown-skinned woman appeared from behind the trees, with two men, one blond, other brunet (both buff) and a light-brown haired woman appeared from the trees behind them.
"Bonnie." detto Elena.
"Hi, Elena." the brown-haired girl smiled, holding the brunet's hand. Elena smiled back.
"You okay, Jer?" she asked the guy. He nodded, she looked at the blond one, apparently Matt, and he nodded as well.
"Remember how I told te I have a friend in London?" Tyler asked Caroline.
"Yeah, when Klaus made te run te came here, te told me te made friends." detto she.
"Well this is Jackson." he gestured to one of the werwolves that came with him, he had brown hair and eyes. He wasn't the one who was about to talk, he was the other one.
"This is Derek, he's an alpha." Tyler gestured to the one that was about to talk. He was sexy, of course. But he looked somewhat scary. He had short hair and a short, shaved beard. He had big, grey eyes and a muscular figure just like Jackson. Sara gave him a confused look. Tyler gestured to the woman and said:
"And this is-"
"Lydia?" Sara interrupted. Everyone turned to look at her, including the woman.
"Sara?" she said. "What are you-?"
Sara rushed towards her and hugged her before she could continue, and Lydia hugged back.
"O....kay?" detto Aria, and everyone else, except Derek, had the look like they didn't know what was going on.
"How long has it been?" asked Lydia.
"Long enough." detto Sara.
Derek coughed twice on purpose, and Sara broke away from Lydia to look at him.
"Derek." she said, and he nodded, smiling.
"Sara." detto he. "No hug for me?"
"Maybe you, I don't know, should've told me you're a werewolf?"
"And how would te have taken it? Don't start this here."
"Wait," detto Jackson. "This is Sara? The Sara?"
Sara looked at Jackson. "How inconvenient." she sarcastically said.
"Don't mind him." detto Derek, giving Jackson a glare.
"What is he doing here anyways?" detto Sara.
"Tyler called." Lydia said. "Remember how I told te about Jackson who moved to London?" detto Lydia.
"Oh." Sara said. She remembered the ex her friend had told her about three years ago, last time they've seen each other.
"Well, when Tyler was running from Klaus he came to Londra and Jackson and him made friends. Then Tyler came back to Mystic Falls and this whole Lucifer shit turned up."
"So I called Jackson for help and he called Derek." detto Tyler. "Lydia decided to come along too."
"So," Sara turns to Lydia. "You're a werewolf too?"
"No. I'm immune to the venom."
"There are people who are immune?" asked Aria.
"Yes." detto Derek.
"Well, why did he call te back in Beacon Hill?"
"Because he turned me," detto Jackson. "he's an alpha who has a pack."
"Oh." Sara looked at Derek. "Oh, great. Great, amazing." she was being sarcastic.
"Can everyone shut up and enlighten us a bit, tell us what's going on maybe?" Caroline shouted.
"Yeah." everyone froze as they heard Dean's voice. "Do tell what's going on here."
Dean took them all inside, back to the meeting room. Where the rest of the girls and The Avengers were.
"We've got company." he said, as he brought all the vampires, licantropi and the rest in.
"Don't tell me più vampires." Nick eyed the seven newcomers.
"Werewolves." Tyler said. "And a witch, an a hybrid."
"Most the Supernatural is here." detto Dean ironically. "Bring on the aliens, huh?"
"We can trust one of them." detto Sara, gesturing to Lydia. "Her name's Lydia, she's a close friend of mine."
"One of them?" Derek asked in disbelief, as Sara eyed him hatefully.
"And who's that?" asked Steve.
"He's my ex, Derek Hale."
"What?" snapped Derek.
"Oh, hi.?" detto Atie.
"I thought te were still dating." detto Aria.
"I just found out he's a werewolf." Sara said. "And we're not having this conversation right now."
"What were te doing out with Aria and Sara anyways?" asked Natasha.
"We were getting people to back us all up." detto Damon. "But then te decided not to include us in your Saving The World Plot."
Everyone went silent. The room tenses for what seemed like a long time before Dean finally said:
"Like I always say and always will: te can't trust monsters."
"You trusted Benny." Sam let out. "And he was a vampire."
"What are te talking about?" Dean gave sam an Unbelievable look. "Benny was different, and te know it."
"Exactly." detto Sam. "Maybe they're different, why not give them a chance? te know how to read people, Dean. te know this feeling te get when te know they're not here to hurt te and te know whether o not to give them a chance. I know how to do all that, too. So why can I see it and te can't?"
Dean looked at his brother for a second. "Sam, what's got into you?"
"Nothing, Dean. I just don't see any reason for them to hurt us. This world's gonna end anyways, and with Lucifer here it will end sooner and we all know it. So why would they all want it to happen? They want their species to survive just as much as we do ours. We can at least work together to save the world, then go back to killing each other as long as we want. Just focus on the bigger picture here, all of us want the same thing. And as if we never did that before, Dean."
"You know, Sam's right, Dean." detto Cas. "We're trusting Meg. te trusted Benny and that got him to sacrifice himself and get Sam out of purgatory. Why not give them a chance?"
"I agree with Sam." detto Aria. "If te think about it, it makes sense, everything he just said."
"Monster is just a name we have for someone different." Smiley said, looking from Katherine to Tony. "Let's give them a chance."
Tony looked at her before standing up and looking at Sam. "If we can't save the earth, be sure as hell we'll avenge it." he said.
"Either way," detto Bruce, "some help won't hurt."
The rest of the Avengers either nodded o detto 'yes' in agreement, Natasha and Clint hesitating before doing so.
"Fine," detto Dean. "One shot." he looked at the vampires. "Don't blow it." Everyone turned to look at Nick.
"Alright." he detto after a few moments of thinking, and smiled. "I kinda liked some of te anyways."
"Show the two Lupi and a girl to a room. The rest can unisciti them in the basement." he added to an agent. "Everyone's dismissed."
"What do te think about this?" Rachel asked as she caught up with Bruce as they left the room.
"I think that this gives us più manpower, but.. I don't know. I don't tend to trust people that easily", he said.
"Do te trust me?"
Bruce turned to look at her and smiled. "If it comes down to it, I'm pretty sure you're one of the only people here who I trust."
"Right back at you."
"Quit flirting, Ray, we've got a group meeting", Marty detto and grabbed her da her arm and dragged her away from Bruce.
"Why?" she asked in annoyment.
"Because a lot of stuff just happened! And most importantly, Sara's boyfriend is here!"
"Fine, fine, fine."
So the girls got to their bedroom again and everyone turned to look at Sara.
"So, are te two fighting now?"
"Are te guys completely over?"
"Why didn't I even know te were dating someone?"
"He is hot!"
Sara sighed and sat on a bed. "I don't know. He kept a huge secret from me. And I Amore te all, so much, but I think he and I need to discuss this before I discuss it with te guys.."
"Fine, go talk to him", Inés basically pushed her out of the room and closed the door after her.
"We are in way over our heads. Vampires, werewolves, wizards, demons, doppelgängers-"
"Sexy superheroes, sexy hunters, sexy vampires", Smiley smirked. "Who's complaining?"
The girls chuckled a little.
"What if Klaus comes after us? What if Lucifer comes after us?" Aline spoke suddenly. "What if we all die?"
Everyone went silent.
"We won't die", Rachel said. "We'll fight. We'll train to fight and we will win."
"Look at that, optimism", Ems smirked as she wrapped an arm around her friend. "I agree, we'll fight and we'll win."
"Since we've basically got an army on our side", Albie said. "We've got good chances."
Sara was just heading to the room where Derek would be staying when she saw him approaching her down the hall.
"Hey", she detto in confusion. "I was just coming to-"
"You can't just break up with me like that", Derek detto quickly. "It's not fair. And it's definitely not what I want."
Sara nodded. "Sorry. I overreacted. No, hold on, I didn't! Guess why? Because te are a werewolf and te failed to tell me that!"
"Sara", Derek grabbed her hand before she could walk off. "I know I've been lying to you, but it's only been to protect you, to protect us. I knew that once I'd tell you, you'd see me as nothing but a freak. As something different."
"You are different", Sara detto softly. "I always knew that. But I don't think you're a freak. Not any più than usual."
Derek smiled a little.
"However, this is a lot to process. Give me time." Sara gently took her hand from Derek's grasp and begun to head back to the room, and she just knew that his glance followed her as she walked.
"So, now, licantropi and vampires", Damon detto as he and the rest of his Friends were in their room, sitting o standing. "I think this place is getting a little crowded."
"True, but I think we should all be grateful that they're willing to work with us again", Stefan said.
Katherine nodded. "Yes, Damon, don't make a scene. Besides, I know for a fact that you've set your eyes on someone here already", she smirked. "Atie, was it?"
"Shut up", Damon snapped. "Or I snap that little doppelgänger's neck. Your new lesbian BFF wouldn't like that, would she?"
Katherine chuckled as she walked over to Damon and pushed him against the wall, grabbing him da his throat. "I have had it up to here with you. I get it, te are frustrated! We all are! But how about te try this new thing you've never tried before and SHUT UP!"
She let go of him and walked back to her seat.
"Let's just all relax", Caroline said, turning to look at Tyler. "Did te see Klaus anywhere?"
He shook his head. "But I'm sure he's there, ready to stalk te in his creepy way, as usual."
"Tyler..."
"This is pointless", Jeremy announced suddenly. "Waiting like this. We've dealt with Klaus before. Why are we hesitating now?"
"Because, little Gilbert, this time there are civilians involved. Including a girl who is.. well, could she be called your sister? Well, I don't think so, but she is related to you, her being John Gilbert's daughter and all."
Jeremy turned to look at Elena in confusion, who sighed. "I'll fill te in later, Jer."
Rachel and Smiley snuck into the gym and turned to look at each other.
"Ok, is this, us doing this, is it heroic and Ribelle - The Brave o stupid and potentially dramatic?" Smiley asked.
"Both", Rachel detto as she grabbed a long wooden stick from the ground that they'd used for sword fighting earlier. She took another one, too, and handed it to Smiley.
"And why are we not including the others?" Smiley asked.
"Because I want to talk to te about something", Rachel detto as she tried to hit her friend with the stick, but only hit the stick Smiley used to cover herself.
"About what?" Smiley asked as she tried to hit Rachel back, but she stumbled backwards and managed to protect herself from the blow.
"Katherine", Rachel said, suddenly pausing.
Smiley sighed. "I told you, it's got nothing to do with you."
"I know. It's not about that, it's just.. What is she like? And what is Elena like?"
Smiley sighed, sitting on the floor, and Rachel soon followed her example. "Why won't te talk to Elena if te want to get to know her?"
"She isn't my sister. Not really. She isn't my family", Rachel said.
"Yes, she is. Even if te want to think she isn't", Smiley detto gently.
"Girls, girls", they turned around to see an unfamiliar person looking at them from a bit further away. He had black hair and an insane smile on his lips. He was holding a spear in his hand and walking closer to them slowly.
"Who are you?" Smiley asked as she and raggio, ray grabbed their stakes from the floor, backing away a little.
"And how the hell did te get here?" Rachel snapped.
"That's my secret", the man gave them a crooked smile. "Now, I do not know who either of te are, but", he smirked as he walked closer. "It's always nice to meet new people. My name is Loki."
Both of the girls went pale.
"Where did the two sneak off to?" Albie asked out loud as she was sitting successivo to Jackson in their room, Leggere a book.
Jackson turned to look at her and gave a reassuring smile. "I'm sure they're fine."
Albie smiled back and closed the book, turning to look at him. "Do te like being a doctor?"
"What?"
"I'm making conversation. Do te like being a doctor, Jackson?" Albie smiled.
"Yes, I do", he detto immediately. "It's what I've always wanted to do. Ever since I was a kid. I suppose it had something to do with the pressure of being an Avery - the Harper Avery award was named after my grandfather - but I still knew that it was what I wanted, despite everyone else."
"I wish I had that clear of a view of what I wanted", Albie said. "I don't even know what I can do, let alone what I want to do."
"You can help save the world", Jackson smirked.
"Oh, yeah, let's start with something small." Albie laughed a little.
"Oh, what? No returning the kindness?" detto Loki, stopping a few feet away from them. "Well, let me just tell you," he pointed at Rachel's stick. "They're useless."
None of the girls detto anything. It was as if both of them forgot how to talk.
Loki paused and smirked evilly. "Swallowed your tongues?"He stepped closer to Diana, who backed away.
"Back off." she snapped. Loki paused again.
"Or what?" he asked, looking over at Rachel. "What are your names?" Rachel took a deep breath and said:
"None of your business."
"Oh it will be." he never quit smiling, and looked back at Diana. "You're two of the twelve girls aren't you?"
"Maybe," Diana cleared her throat. "maybe not." Loki snickered and looked down, backing away a few steps and circling the girls.
"I take it te know me." he said.
"We do." detto Rachel.
"Then te are two of the twelve girls." he smirked.
"Now, I know you," he pointed at Rachel with his spear. "You have red highlights. Rachel, right? And you," he pointed at Diana with it "you're blonde... Sara? Diana?"
"How do- how do te know what we look like?" asked Rachel.
"Another one of my tricks." he looked at her and put his spear down. He paused again for a few moments then looked back at Diana.
"Nope, it's Diana."
"What do te want from us?" Rachel snapped.
"You're part of something I want to Avenge, let's just say that." Loki grinned.
"Avenge?" detto Diana. "What did we ever do to you?"
"You joined them." he said. "The people who overthrew me. The Avengers, one of which is my brother." His tone was very casual, as if he was talking to a friend at school lunch.
"Adoptive brother." Smiley corrected him, and raggio, ray gave her a look.
"What?" detto Smiley, but raggio, ray just rolled her eyes.
"You're outnumbered here, Loki." detto Rachel. "If you're here to kill us, no offense, but you're stupid." Loki's smile disappeared, and he frowned at her, looking mad this time.
"Oh, they don't have to know," his tone changed from casual to dangerously calm as he came closer and closer to her. "Your death can be..." he looked at the bacheca behind Rachel. "accidental." and he pushed her.
Loki was a demigod, so he had godlike powers, Supernatural strength was one of it. Rachel flew towards the bacheca in a second. During that second, she closed her eyes and tensed her body, preparing for the incoming pain. But instead of hitting the wall, she hit something (or someone) softer, like an armor, and two hands were grabbed her arms so she couldn't hit the guy completely. When she opened her eyes, she saw Diana sighing in relief, and Loki turning around from her to face them, smirking. But his smirk disappeared in a second. And Rachel heard Bruce's voice in her ear:
"Loki, I presume."
Rachel turned to look at him, and saw he was wearing a mask with bat-like ears.
"Batman." Loki said, as if greeting an old friend, and smiled again."I thought te were a dead man. Joker will like this." he smirked.
"Why are te here?" asked Bruce.
"Well," detto Loki, casually once più "I assume te heard what I told the girls." Bruce let go of Rachel, and said:
"Stay here." Rachel nodded.
"Revenge?" he detto to Loki. "Really? Don't te think they stopped te for a reason?"
"Yeah, sure they did. Tell te what, te saved one of them. Try saving both." he quickly flipped his spear and, not looking away from Bruce, stabbed Diana with it. She gasped from pain and bent down, as Rachel screamed:
"No!"
"Oops," detto Loki, looking at Diana. "My bad. Did that hurt?" he twisted the blade, and Diana let out a scream.
Bruce rushed towards him, but before he reached him, Loki was grabbed da something and thrown about five meters behind Bruce. Tony was in the air in front of Smiley, lowering down, he was wearing his red and yellow iron armor and mask.
"Maybe te should do that to your own dick once in a while." Tony detto humorously, landing in front of Diana. Bruce turned to face Loki as he got up.
"I'm guessing the whole party will be here soon." Loki was panting a bit, but smirked when he looked at Rachel.
"Don't even think-" Bruce was halfway successivo to Loki when he detto that, but Loki successivo to Rachel, holding his spear and aiming for her throat. But he suddenly fell, right on the spot, into a hole that opened in the ground.All three of them looked over at Smiley, and saw that she was holding a switch under a floorboard, panting and smiling with triumph.
"Found the emergency exit." she said, before collapsing on the ground.
The three of them went pale. They couldn't say anything before Loki appeared in front of them again.
"Shame," he said. "She was a nice girl." He looked over at Diana. "Maybe she's not even dead ye-"
He was overthrown da a figure, rolled onto the ground, and pinned. The figure was Thor.
"Brother." detto Loki. "What a lovely surprise."
"Do te know how stupid te are to come here alone, Loki?" detto Thor.
"Hmmm.... nope. Not really." Loki smiled. Thor held his hammer out , but Loki blocked it with his spear before he could hit him. Then, Loki pushed, and both the hammer and Thor were off Loki, and he dodged Tony's blasts as he approached Rachel.
"You're as they say, tough shit, aren't you?" he asked her.
"Tougher than te think." she said, kicking him unexpectedly in the area. He gasped, just like Diana did when he stabbed he. Then Bruce tackled him, then pinned him to the bacheca successivo to Rachel.
"Tell Joker I say hi." detto Bruce, punching Loki twice on the face. Loki smiled at him through bleeding nose and mouth and laughed.
"Oh, I will." he said, very quickly taking his spear and hitting Rachel, who is now standing successivo to Bruce, hard on her head with its tip, so she passes out. This happens in a matter of seconds. Bruce looks at Rachel, then starts suffocating Loki.
"You're going to wish te never did that."
Loki couldn't breathe, but he took out his spear and aimed for Bruce, only for it to be blasted out of his hand da Tony.
"Yeah, tell me about it." Tony said, placing his hand on Loki's stomach and blasting it. Loki would've screamed, but he couldn't breathe. Bruce and Tony were pushed aside da Thor.
"Let me deal with him." Thor detto as Loki gasped for air. Thor pinned his brother da his shoulders to the wall. And Loki started laughing again.
"You know I came here to mostra te that te have no chance."
"We stopped te once." Thor said. "We'll do it again."
"Oh no, but te see, things changed since last time we met, brother. My spear, for example, it was upgraded, if te haven't noticed how different it looks."
"What are te saying?" snapped Thor.
"You couldn't save two of them from me. How do te propose saving ten più of them from all of us?" And, with that, Loki pushed Thor away and disappeared. Just in time for the rest of the avengers to appear.
"Took te long enough!" Tony shouted at them in frustration.
They took both the girls upstairs to the secondo floor, where they had a medical center in one of the rooms. Katherine, Caroline and Meredith saw them.
"What's going on?" Katherine asked as she followed them into a tent with Meredith and Caroline.
"Loki." answered Natasha.
"He's here?" snapped Caroline.
"You didn't hear anything?" asked Clint.
"We can turn the vampire hearing on o off whenever we-" she paused as she saw Diana's injury. "No."
"She's still breathing." detto Natasha. "We need a doctor."
"I'm a doctor." detto Meredith. "Let me-" she paused as she saw Rachel's head bleeding. "Oh, no, Rachel." she looked at Caroline. "Call Jackson. Our Jackson, the one that came with us. He's also a doctor, he'll help. Quickly!" Caroline nodded and disappeared.
"We don't need a doctor." detto Katherine. "Vampire blood can heal humans, let me heal them." she detto as she rushed towards Diana.
"Only through my dead body." Tony blocked her way.
"She's dying, genius, both of them are. And they're the last people I'd want to hurt even if I did want to hurt anyone here, did we o did we not make a deal?"Caroline appeared with Jackson and Albie.
"Where are they?" detto Jackson.
"Let me heal her." Katherine detto to Tony. "Both of them." she looked over at Bruce as he exchanged looks with Tony, and Tony backed away. Katherine leaned in front of Diana, bit her wrist and tilted Diana's head up.
"Come on," she said. "Drink, come on." She drank, but the wound didn't heal.
"What's going on?" detto Caroline. "Why isn't she healing?"
"I don't know." detto Katherine. shocked, but still trying to feed Diana her blood, shouting:
"Come on!"
"Loki detto his spear was upgraded." detto Thor. "Maybe...."
Katherine pulled her wrist away and faced Meredith, saying:
"Heal both of them, for both our sakes." Meredith nodded.
Fifteen minuti later, the tent was empty but Meredith, Jackson, and of course, Rachel and Diana. Everyone else were outside, waiting.
"I just can't believe it." detto Sophie "They might...." she placed her face in her hands.
"Don't say that." detto Emily, rubbing Sophie's shoulder. "Have hope. They'll be okay." Sophie smiled at her.
Meredith came out, and Bruce and Tony got up the quickest.
"It's bad." detto Meredith said. "Diana was stabbed as far as her spine, a lot of internal and external bleeding, so she Lost a lot of blood. And Rachel was hit in the middle of her head… also a lot of internal bleeding, più than external, and perhaps a serious head trauma. I'm surprised how are both of them still alive, actually." She took a deep breath, tearing up, before slowly adding "Both their conditions are fatal."
Everyone just stood there, pale faced, shocked and hoping this all is just a bad dream.
"How did this happen?" Bruce was the first one to speak, though his voice was breaking.
"He did 't hit Rachel that hard. He hit her hard, but not to the point of this. And he didn't stab Diana that deep, either. Just with the point of the spear."
"The spear." Tony realized. "Upgraded."
"So, what do we do now?" asked Banner.
"We save them." detto Bruce. "I'm not backing down."
"Neither are we." detto Villy.
"Another reason to get blood bags." detto Katherine, and everyone nodded.
The group decided to divide their missions. Stefan, Katherine, Damon, Barton and Natasha would go out to the nearest town and nearest hospital to get bloodbags. Caroline, Elena, Meredith and Jackson would monitor Rachel and Diana's stability 24/7, and try the vampire blood one più time if things got worse.
The others were supposed to plan a strategy to take down Loki, and the girls were supposed to be waiting.
Meredith sighed and got out of the medical center to talk to Bruce and Tony, who she knew were waiting outside.
"Rachel needs surgery. Now", she said. "And so does Diana."
"What are te gonna do?" Bruce asked immediately.
"Rachel has a lot of bleeding in her brain, and I need to drill a hole to relieve some of the pressure", she said.
Bruce buried his head in his hands, muttering something about how it was his fault.
Tony turned to look at Meredith, waiting.
"For Diana I can't know what organs were damaged da the spear before I get in there and do damage control", she said. "But at this point.. It would have been better if the vampire blood had healed them."
"Yeah, I'll say", Tony detto weakly and watched as Meredith walked back into the medical center.
"I am going to kill Loki", he announced.
"Get in line."
Katherine travelled around the hospital, grabbing a few blood bags. She couldn't help but to worry about Diana, and even Rachel. She'd finally made a friend, and now she could die.
"Katherine", Elena walked over to her.
"What?"
"I just found my sister. She can't die", Elena said.
"That's why we're here", Katherine snapped.
"Could Klaus' blood heal her better? Heal them better?"
Katherine turned to look at Elena.
"Klaus can heal a werewolf bite! He is special", Elena said, grabbing onto Katherine arm. "Tell me it would work."
Katherine sighed, actually feeling compassion towards her doppelgänger. "Klaus can heal a werewolf bite because he is a hybrid. It's got nothing to do with injuries like this."
"It's worth giving it a shot, though", Stefan detto from the doorway, and Katherine turned to look at him in surprise.
"They can't die. Elena's right", he continued. "We have to reach out to Klaus."
"His blood won't work", Katherine insisted.
"Then te can tell us te told us so", Elena detto before following Stefan out of the room and out of the hospital.
Katherine groaned, shoving a bag full of blood bags and then following them.
"What if they die?" Aline asked softly. The girls were in their room, no one saying o doing anything.
"They won't", Ems said.
"What if they do?" Albie suddenly asked. "What happens then? Because if they die, then-"
"Then we have to leave", Sara detto suddenly. "We can't stay here. They detto they'd protect us and look at what's happened! Klaus, Lucifer, Loki and god knows who are coming here anyway. We're sitting ducks!"
"We have to trust them", Aria detto quietly. "We have to trust that they know best."
"Why?" Atie asked suddenly. "Because te think the Winchesters are cute o something?"
"Shut up!" Marty raised her voice. "We are not going to turn against each other, not now! Our Friends need us, so let's just sit down and pray for whatever god it is that te all believe in."
"Wait!" Caroline got off the phone and stopped Meredith from starting to prep Rachel into surgery.
"What?" she asked.
"We have one più idea", Caroline said. "Klaus' blood. It's a long shot and it probably won't even help, but they think that if I go and negotiate with him-"
"He'll just negotiate a deal to get access to Rachel's blood", Bruce detto as he and Tony walked into the medical center. They both stopped in their tracks as they saw the women they cared about lying helplessly on hospital beds, unconscious.
"It is a shot", Meredith said. "And it is a risk I am willing to take. Bruce", he turned to look at her. "Rachel is my best friend, has been for years. And she would want this, she would want te to try. She would be willing to give all her blood to Klaus in exchange for Diana's life, if that's what it takes."
"But it will not be what it takes!" Bruce raised his voice. "You have no idea how long it took me to find her. Find someone who I care about unconditionally, and who actually, for once, sees me just as me, not as the Batman."
"Bruce", Tony grabbed his arm, but Bruce shook it off, shaking his head. "No. I'm staying right here."
Caroline nodded. "I'll go meet the others outside."
"It will not work", Castiel said. They all turned to look at him. He'd appeared in front of them like he'd been there all along. "Niklaus cannot save them. But I can."
Tony took a breath. "You're an angel."
"Yes", Castiel detto it as if it was an obvious thing. "Shall I?"
"Will they have any permanent damage?" Bruce asked.
"No, I don't think so."
"THEN WHY HAVE te NOT ALREADY DONE IT?"
Castiel looked at Bruce in concern before walking over to Rachel's letto and placing his palm at the superiore, in alto of her head. There was a bright light for only a secondo and then it was gone. Nothing seemed to have changed, but Castiel seemed to think it was all ok, for he moved towards Diana and did the same for her.
"It is done", he said. "It might take them a while to wake up. And Loki's spear, it is special, I deducted a light resistance as I healed them, so it is possible that.. some injury will be left to be dealt with."
"Like what?" Tony asked.
"There is a chance that Rachel will be fuzzy about details of her life. For a while."
"She'll lose her memory?" Bruce asked angrily.
"I don't know. We'll see. And as for Diana, it'll be hard for her to walk for a while. But other than that, I think they will be fine."
"Thank you", Meredith detto gratefully.
Castiel nodded and left the room.
"Should te call the others off from talking to Klaus?" Tony asked.
Caroline sighed. "They're already there. I'll go and try to shoo Klaus off, but once he's called...", she didn't finish her sentence, just ran off in her vampire speed.
"You guys can stay here with the girls while we go tell the others", Jackson detto as he and Meredith left the room.
"All this for two girls", Tony detto quietly as he sat successivo to Diana's bed.
"They're pretty special girls", Bruce said.
"Yeah", Tony nodded.
Meredith was walking to the girls' room, when she saw them walking the opposite direction towards the center.
"Cas told us the story." detto Soph "We just want to be there when they wake up." Meredith nodded and gestured the girls to follow her, but Bonnie appeared in their way.
"What Cas told you," she said. "It's somewhat true. But his blade is even more… special than he thinks."
"What do te mean?" asked Meredith.
"When he told te Rachel might have her memory erased and Diana won't be able to walk for a while, it's way più than that."
The girls tensed and all gave her the same scared but curious look.
"More than that, in a somewhat good way." Bonnie continued. "Loki's spear, it's not what he calls upgraded just like that. He used a witch to do it."
"And how do te know that?" asked Meredith.
"I can tell just da looking at their wounds. Anyways,"
Bruce and Tony sat in silence. Less than a minuto has passed, but it felt like forever for both of them.
"Aren't they supposed to wake up now?" Bruce detto impatiently, looking over at Rachel.
"Apparently." detto Tony. Bruce sighed.
"You know," he said. "I meant it, when I detto I cared about her. I don't know, I've known her for less than two days, and I still care for her that much for some reason. Maybe it's because she sees me for what I actually am, not my mask and armor. But she has this… this gravity that just keeps on pulling me towards her. And if anything happens to her…" he trailed off, holding back tears now.
Back with the girls, Bonnie continued.
"when a witch uses her powers on an object, she enchants it."
"I hear you." detto Tony quietly back in the tent, looking at Diana. "When Pepper and I broke up, I thought everything I ever fought for was over. I nearly died for her countless times." He looked back at Bruce. "But I never felt this for her."
"She bewitches it."
"What?" whispered Bruce, looking helplessly at Tony.
"This. This attraction, gravity you're talking about. I never felt that for her." He looked at Diana once more. "But with her…" he trailed off, and started tearing up, too.
"Certain objects, very rare objects, can store the witch's powers."
"When it comes to it," detto Bruce. "We'll be the ones who kill that son of a bitch."
"Loki used the powers to make the his spear stronger, but it's one of the objects which stores the powers. When he used it to kill Rachel and Diana, the powers were channeled. it was going to work as he planned, but then Cas saved them, they weren't going to die anymore."
"What are te saying?" Meredith asked.
"Hell yes." Tony looked at Bruce. "I want that bastard's head on a stake."
"Cas saved them, they're alright now, with witch powers inside them."
Diana bolted upright and gasped for air. Tony and Bruce Flinched and turned to look at her, but couldn't sposta after what they saw. Her eyes were fully red, they met a Demon with red eyes not a while ago, his name was Crowley, but that couldn't possibly be the case.
"Wh-what's happening?" Diana looked around, everything was in red, as if she was swimming in a pool of blood. But then her eyes closed shut, and when she opened them again, everything looked normal. She looked at Tony in confusion.
"What are you-" she felt blood rising up her throat before she could finish, and she started choking.
Tony rushed to her and patted her on her back as she leaned forward, she didn't choke but started vomiting the blood out.
Bruce looked at them for a few seconds, slightly confused, slightly relieved, but then his glance went to Rachel, who was still unconscious.
"Rachel-" he was cut off da the sound of her gasping when she bolted up. Rachel's eyes were yellow, Sam and Dean told them about a yellow-eyed demon, but they killed him long ago.
"What's- what's going on?" Rachel saw everything in yellow, as if swimming in some kind of acid. Then, her eyes closed and reopened just like Diana's, and she started vomiting blood all the same, and Bruce, just like Tony, patted her on her back.
The Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. and the rest of the gang were negotiating with Klaus just outside the shield again.
"And how do te know my blood will heal them?" he asked.
"We don't." detto Elena. Klaus looked at all of them and smirked.
"So you're willing to risk everything to save something you're not even sure can be saved."
"We'll do anything for them not to die." detto Stefan.
"Oh, but I'll kill your doppelgänger anyways and te all know it." Caroline appeared before anyone could say anything more.
"Never mind, Klaus, they're healed. Thank you, though." Katherine looked at her.
"How?" she asked.
"Cas."
"Castiel." Klaus said. "The angel, right?"
"Yeah." detto Caroline. "Now can we go back to dealing with Lu-"
Klaus held up two blood bags to her.
"My blood." He said. "Just in case anything happens." He smiled at Caroline.
Caroline hesitated before taking them.
"So, when am I meeting the girls?" asked Klaus.
"You're not." Katherine snapped.
"Of course I am." Klaus looked at her and smiled. "Like I said, one, Ines, is tempting."
"How do te know her name?" Damon asked.
"Again, like I said," Klaus smirked at him. "I have a witch." And then, he disappeared into the woods.
The girls and Jackson stormed into the room just in time for Rachel and Diana to recover themselves.
"Oh my god." detto Sophie as she noticed the two huge puddles of blood on the floor.
"It's fine." detto Tony, wiping Diana's mouth. "Everything's fine."
"What happened?" Rachel looked at Bruce. "Loki hit me and then-"
"And then te got better." He smiled at her.
"But, he didn't hit me hard… though it felt hard…"
"He didn't stab me deep either, but it felt deep alright." detto Diana.
"Loki's blade is special." detto Bruce. "Well, te can say it was upgraded."
"There's one più thing," detto Albie.
"Help me up." Diana told Tony, standing up.
"No, don't walk." Tony said, supporting her. "You can't- ouch!" Diana had placed her hand on his shoulder for support, but it somehow burned him. She jerked it away, jumping up and standing as if she was never stabbed.
"What the-?" she looked at Tony's arm, his skin was bund in her palm's shape. Tony looked at her in confusion, covering his burn with his hand. Diana was looking at him with the same confused look in her eyes. She looked around and saw a mirror. When she walked up to it and placed her palm on the glass, it steamed then popped in a couple of seconds.
Rachel, and everyone else, flinched at that, and a chair in front of Rachel's letto blew into pieces. Everyone flinched again, and looked at the now destroyed chair. No one could find any figure of speech, they were all dumbstruck, looking at Rachel and Diana.
"Did…" detto Rachel "Did I just do that?" She looked over at a wooden piece of the chair that fell successivo to her bed. She focused and concentrated on it, and in less than a second, it blew into tiny pieces.
"The witch powers." detto Bonnie. And everyone turned to look at her. "Loki's blade was bewitched, it's one of the objects that stores the witch's power and it passed to-"
"To us?" detto Diana. "So we're witches now?" she touched the end of the plastic on Rachel's bed, but when she looked over, it didn't burn. She looked at Rachel, then back at her hand. She focused on it, and it burned. She focused on reducing it, and it stopped burning. She could control it, just like Rachel could control her whatever that was.
"You're not witches." detto Bonnie. "You just have these… Supernatural powers." She turned to look at the rest of the girls. "And I'll channel them to you."
Rachel blinked once o twice before burying her head in her hands. "What the hell does that mean?"
"It means that I can give all of te powers", Bonnie explained.
"I think this is enough for now", Tony detto as he observed the shocked look on Diana's face.
