I left Nik to sort out the Hunter and i went and meet bekkah at her house and we drove to the grill and Matt was working she placed car keys on the counter infrount of Matt
“What's that?” he asked  her
“The key to your new truck. It's parked outside, payed for, insured, everything but a big red bow.” Bekkah told him smiling and Matt scoffed
“If that's your idea of an apology, you should probably give it to Elena. She's the one that you killed.” Matt informed her and she looked miserable
“You're trying too hard.” I heard nik say and we looked at him
“ Last I heard you were leaving town, forever.” Rebekkah said
“Well we was” He got up and walked towards us “but then I thought to myself how can I when my sister, clearly so desperate for love and affection, is left here bribing the help. And also if Bell here so am i” he said
“What do you want Nik? I thought I was dead to you.” She asked him
“Things change Rebekah. I've stumbled upon something I think might be of interest to you.” Nik informed her
“Doubt that.” She said
“ No? Well, what if I told you the brotherhood of The Five still existed.” Nik informed her and i was just stood there watching them banter
“What?” bekkah asked him
“You see, and like that bygones. Come on love, work to do.” He said to bekkah
“We don't have anything to do. There is no we. I don't care about The Five and I don't care about you.” She said and nik shrugged
“ As you wish.” Nik said and left me and bekkah stayed and we had some drinks.

We went into the house and bekkah followed we walked in to the room and connor was chained up and he was groaning
“You feeling alright, mate? Are the shackles too tight? Welcome home, sister.” Nik said and he turned and looked at us
“Is this a trick? How do you know he's one of the Five? Where's his bloody tattoo?” Rebekkah asked
“Oh, the tattoos aren't visible on this lot like they were on the last. Let's eat.” Nik said and i looked at him Nik walked out of the room and we followed him we all sat around the table and a girl served us food
“Thank you, my lovely.” He said and the girl walked off  “I could kiss the Council for burning up all the vervain in town. They made my life so much easier. Rebekah, love, eat your veggies.” Nik said to her and i shook my head at her
“ I'm not eating until you apologize.” She declared
“ For which indiscretion? There have been so many.”nik stated
“You broke my neck.” She said
“ You threw away Elena's blood so I can't make any more hybrids.” He argued back
“Because you took me for granted.” She shouted back
“That's what big brothers do, sweetheart!” he explained and i rested my hands on the table and my head in my hands
“Let me just name the million other people I'd rather be having dinner with right now. Isn’t this entertaining bella and think you have to live with this for the rest of your life” he said and i glared at him
“ Alright, fine. I'm sorry. I often forget how delicate you are. Forgive me?” he asked
“I'll take it under consideration.”  She said and i sighed
“Finally” i said and she scowled at me
“ Okay, good. Now, why don't you tell me about Rebekah's hunter?” Stefna asked
“Right, Alexander. Nice chap foregoing the obvious issues.” Nik said “He was looking for creatures of the night which is why we felt quite safe around him wearing our daylight rings.He told us about a wepon that can kill all vampires”
“So, that's what this is about? A weapon.” Stefan asked
“Not just any weapon.” Bekkah said
“Rebekah, love, don't get ahead of the story.” Nik told her smirking
“How is a weapon the answer to all my prayers?” Stefan asked them Rebekah and Nik looked at each other, but don't say anything.
“Okay. Why don't we just skip with the theatrics and get right to the point?” i asked them
“ Not quite yet Love, because in order to find this weapon, we need to solve the puzzle. Which seems to have disappeared” he stated
“What puzzle?” Stefan asked Nik raises his eyebrows.
“The tattoo. What is it?” Stefan asked him
“ A map. Leading us to its treasure.” Nik stated to him
“ Fat lot of good a tattoo's gonna do, if we can't see it.” I said and took a sip of wine
“We can't, but someone else can.” He said and turned to a girl “Why don't you tell the hybrid to bring him in, love?” Nik asked and the girl walked out
“ You see, the hunter was so eager to get to the bottom of his mystery tattoos that he mentioned there was only one other person that can see them.” Nik told us  hybrids walked in to the room. He had Jeremy in his grasp. Stefan super speed out of his chair towards Jeremy. Nik rushed past Stefan and stands between him and Jeremy.
“ I wouldn't. Lucky for us, young Jeremy here, is a bit of an artist.” Nik said
“I'm not helping you with anything.” Jermey declared The hybrid grabbed Jeremy's hand and took his ring off. He tossed it to Klaus who caught it. He held it up for Jeremy to see.
“Oh, I'm afraid you are.” Nik said and the hybrids took Jeremy to a different room
“So, tell me more about this tattoo.” Stefan said
“My sister's suitor was unwilling to tell us anything. Rebekah, however, was more than willing to investigate. Isn't that right?” Nik asked her and she looked down ashamed
“ My sister's boyfriend threw a slumber party that night. He and his brothers put us all down in our sleep. Elijah, Kol, Finn, and me.”  He said and looked at bekkah
“How was I supposed to know?” she asked him and he raised his glass
“Cheers, to my sister's uncanny ability to choose men.” He said and i shook my head
“Nik” i said and Stefan looked confused
“ I thought the daggers didn't work on you because of your werewolf side.” Stefan said and nik smirked
“They don't.” He said “ i killed them all when i woke and he promised Rebekah something Go ahead, Rebekah. Tell him. Tell him what the hunter told you the tattoo leads to. What is this great weapon that could bring about the end of the vampire species?” Nik asked
“ A cure. He said there was a cure.” Rebekkah stated Nik got up and Stefan followed him.
“There is no cure for vampirism.” Stefan said
“ He's telling the truth, Stefan.” Rebekkah said
“ Then why wouldn't you have searched for it, found it?” Stefan asked and me and her got up and walked to the parlor where nik was pouring hiself a drink
“Because when the hunters drew their final breath that night, the marks disappeared from their body, the map was gone, the brotherhood of the Five extinct. For nine hundred years, there was not a whisper of another hunter, until our friend in there showed up in town.” Nik said to us
“ Well, now we have the map, what do we do next?” i asked
“We don't do anything. You can't be trusted, little sister. You'll be blabbing this secret to the first boy who calls you pretty. I mean, it's pathetic, really, isn't it? How she continues to hand her heart to any man who shows her a hint of affection. You'd think she would have learned by now from the endless cycle of disappointment and deception.” Nik said to her
“ But, I haven't, instead I stayed with you and let you leech every moment of happiness from my life! You know, at least I fared better then Finn, Klaus left him daggered because he was tired of his judgment.” Rebekkah said
“ No, Finn was a dullard. He was more interesting lying in a box.” Nik staed to her
“You want the cure for Elena, don't you? So you can go back to mass producing your hybrids. That's why you brought Stefan here, because you knew that he'd help you even though he hates your guts! You know what? You can shove your cure.” Bekkah said and she walked out of the house and nik smirked and turned to Stefan
“ Well, I hope you got what you wanted out of her before you chased her off.” Stefan stated
“ She never would have told me what I needed to know. But she'll tell you.” Nik said to him
“ What do you need me to find out?” Stefan asked him and i shook my head and sat down
“The map is useless without the tool to decipher it.” Nik stated to Stefan
“The sword.” Stefan said
“ She knows where it is. And you're gonna get her to tell you. You have a chance to save Elena from the very thing that is going to destroy her. You can call it a deal with the devil, if you like. But you know you won't walk away from it.” Nik declared and Stefan nodded and left we walked in to the room were Jeremy was drawing
“Nice lines. Now, if you could just hurry it up a little bit.” Nik told him Jeremy got up and handed the sketchpad to Nik and Jermey  looked at him
“I'm done.” He said and nik looked at the sketch and then at connor
“ What is this?” he asked
 “It's the tattoo.” Jeremy stated Nik turned around and grabbed Jeremy by the throat.
“I've seen the tattoo, you impertinent punk. There's more to it.” Nik said
“That's all of it. He says every time he kills a vampire it spreads.” Jeremy chocked out Nik threw Jeremy back into a chair. He turned and looks at Connor.
“ Nate!” he shouted and nate walked in “Tell the girl to take Jeremy home.” He said and then pointed to connor “Keep this one alive at all costs.” He said and we left the room and i followed him to the car to the boarding house and i heared Rebekkah talking to Stefan
“ I buried him. Even after everything. I laid him to rest in the place where we were to be married. What kind of hopeless fool does that? Oh, but that's what you wanted to know, isn't it? Because I buried him with his sword.” Bekkah said and we walked in to the room
“I'm sorry, little sister, but you're right.” He said and bekkah turned around and face him as i went and stood next to Stefan he pulled out a dagger and white oak ash which i just realise he had and i was shocked “You really are a hopeless fool.” He said and dipped the dagger into the ash
“Niklaus Don’t” i said and bekkah tried to run past him but Stefan stopped her
“Im sorry, Rebekah.” He said and she looked hurt and he turned to Klaus
“Go right ahead. Laugh at the girl who loved too easily. But I would rather have lived my life than yours, Nik. No one will ever sit around a table telling stories about a man who couldn't love. Do it. Look me in the eye and do it, you coward!” she shouted and i had tears streaming down my face and he avoided her eyes
“Do it!” she shouted and he stabbed her and bekkah body started to desiccate and tears wouldn’t stop coming down my face Stefan covered up Rebekah's body, which was lying on the sofa, with a blanket. Klaus came back into the room.
“ I have a plane waiting. I'll get the sword. My hybrids will keep an eye on Connor. You put Rebekah somewhere where no one will find her and make sure Jeremy forgets everything he heard today.” Nik told him and he handed Stefan jeremys ring
“I'll take care of it.” Stefan said
“No one must know about the cure, do you understand? Not Damon. Not Elena. Nobody. If this gets out, it could mean all our deaths. So, if you tell anyone, I'll erase each and every memory from the lot of you…” Nik threatened him
“I won't say anything.” Stefan declared
“It's just you and me and bell in this, Stefan. Some secrets are stronger than family.” He said and he looked at me.
