"Okay, so remind me again why you're taking me here?" I ask Stefan as we sneak into Klaus' home. Stefan wanted more answers about 'The Five.' Apparently, Klaus called this hunter; whose name is Connor, one of the fives.

"Klaus probably won't give me answers unless you're there." he answers. "What does me being there going to do?" I play along with my lie. "Klaus would've let Elena die if he wasn't so interested in you."

"Oh, so you're going to use me as advantage?" I ask, crossing my arms. "Wha– no, no. I'm not doing that." he says and shushes me, "Shh, Klaus has his place surrounded with hybrids." he whispers once we got in. As if I didn't know that, I thought.

I nod, tiptoeing on the floor. "Wouldn't they catch my scent?" I ask him and he rolls his eyes, "Then put my jacket on to hide it." he does as he says and hands me his jacket once he takes it off. "Okay,"

He puts one finger up and points to one of the doors. I nod as he inhuman speeds over there and opens the door quietly, going in. I start to follow his actions when someone stops me, "Who are you?"

I look up at the man, one of Klaus' hybrids, who was holding my shoulder very tightly. I swallow thickly before standing up straight, "I'm Klaus' girlfriend, Maya," I lie, "you should expect me to be here more often."

The hybrid lets go of my shoulder and puts his hands behind his back, "Oh. Sorry, mam."

I nod confidentially, "Where is he by the way?" I ask, looking around. "He went to the mystic grill. He should be back any minute." he answers before scurrying off.

I let out a huge sigh of relief before walking to the room that Stefan was in. I open the door and couldn't find Stefan anywhere, but only to find a man chained up to a piece of wood. "Oh,"

I, then, feel a presence behind me, startling me.
"Hello," Klaus' thick accent says behind me. He walks over to the chained man and began to speak, "Looks like I'll have to beef up the hybrid security detail."

Stefan walks out of the shadows. "I was gonna take him, but I figured you went through such trouble to truss him up in your red room of pain."

"It's from the Inquisition. I thought it was a nice touch." Klaus smirks. "What'd you get out of Connor?" Stefan asks, stepping forward.

"Not enough." he answers, "He's mum about the Council fire and he's not saying anything about this greater evil we're all supposed to be shivering over. What brings you snooping?"

"Well, I can't say it in front of him. As I'm sure you've figured out, our friend here can't be compelled." Stefan replies. Klaus looks over to to Connor, "You're full of mysteries, aren't you?"

"I told you, I don't know anything." Connor spats. Klaus grins, "Thankfully, I know plenty."

Klaus walks out of the room and gestures for Stefan and I to follow him. "Shall we?" I let out a breath before walking up to Klaus as Stefan trails behind me. Klaus  shuts the doors to Connor's prison room and turns us.

"So, what's with the home invasion?" he turns his head to Stefan. "Damon said you knew something about this guy. Now, I should have figured out that you were up to something when you healed Elena from the werewolf poison without asking for anything in return." Stefan responds.

"I was feeling benevolent." Klaus shrugs, grinning. "You're never benevolent." Stefan crosses his arms, "Who is this guy? What's the Five?" he demands.
