Suddenly Tyler ran through the door. Everyone turned to him confused.

"Ah, good, you're here. It was just getting depressing." Rebekah said irritated.

"What the hell is going on?" Tyler asked.

Everyone turned to Rebekah who began to speak. "Listen to the rules carefully. Stay in the building, no vamp-running in the hallways."

"Vamp-running from what?" Caroline asked what they were all thinking.

Rosa looked at Rebekah and then to Tyler. Rebekah began to speak once more as she also looked at Tyler. "Turn."

"What?" Elena asked.

"He can't. He'll lose control." Caroline stated.

Rebekah rolled her eyes. "That's the whole point. I've exhausted all your knowledge. Now I have the professor to help me find the cure, you're just competition. Whoever finds it first gets to decide what to do with it. Use it, share it, destroy it, save it. I want that to be me."

Rosa smirked and walked closer to Rebekah. "So, you want to take the cure. How cute. Little Rebekah wants to be human. Do you really think anyone will let you live once you're human?" Rebekah backed away slightly and looked away from Rosa.

"Tyler, you will turn and kill them." Rebekah said angrily. She looked at everyone, "Start with Rosa."

"Agh! I can't fight this!" Tyler screamed in pain. His breathing became heavy as he fell into the floor. He tried to pull himself over the table, but couldn't. They watched in horror as Tyler's bones began to break. "Get out of here!"

Rosa nodded and grabbed onto her friends hands. "Go—go!" Stefan told them.

The four of them begin to run down the hallway, Stefan shutting the door.

"That doors not gonna hold him."

Rosa rolled her eyes, "No shit, Elena." Everyone looked at her. Elena looked shocked, Caroline sighed. She had learned to expect this behavior from Rosa. Stefan smirked slightly, but quickly remembered the situation their in. "What? I'm mean when I'm scared."

They began to hear loud bangs coming nearer. They all began to run when they heard some doors burst open. Stefan aliases the door behind them. He takes the fire axe and sticks it in the door handles.

Tyler continues to bang into the door, making both Caroline and Rosa back away slowly as Stefan and Elena think of ways to block the door.

Suddenly, a loud thud takes place and the door opens slightly. Stefan and Elena run over to the door, trying to push it closed. Rosa was about to help when Stefan shook his head.

"He's going after you, Rosa. You need to get out of here."

Rosa scoffed, "Stop being so noble for like 5 seconds. We are all getting out of here together."

Rosa looks around and sees a locker door hanging out. She pulls it off the hinges and hands it to Elena who then sticks it through the handles.

Rosa watches curiously as Stefan and Elena back away from the door slowly. Then they charge toward it, shutting it harshly. It shuts with a bang and it then becomes quiet.

"Rosa, we have to go!" Caroline said as she pulled her friend out of the room.

"No! We can't leave Stefan and Elena."

Caroline sighed. "They'll be fine, okay. Right now, Tyler wants to kill you. So we need to get you, out of here." Rosa was hesitant, but reluctantly she agreed and the two ran down the hall.

After running through the school, the two girls make there way to the gym. Suddenly Rosa sees Tyler lying on the floor, naked.

"Uhm...Caroline."

Caroline's eyes widen. "Tyler!" She runs over to him, grabs the table cloth from one of the tables and wraps it around him.

"I'm so sorry." Tyler said as Caroline helped him stand.

"What? No, it's not your fault." Caroline assured him.

Rosa stood there awkwardly as the two talked. She knew that Tyler was angry with her right now, because of his mom.

"Yes, it was. This whole thing...it's all my fault."

"No..." Caroline said quietly.

Suddenly Tyler began to cry which made Rosa looked around the room uncomfortably. "I should have saved her." He said.

"Oh, stop crying. So you tried to erase all your memories of Elena and now you two are in this weird awkward hate thing. I saw a naked Tyler Lockwood cry." Rosa complained to Stefan as they sat in her car.

Stefan looked at Rosa a land sighed. "Are you going to call Klaus?" He asked.

Rosa was taken aback by the question. Why would she call Klaus? Not after what he did. She shook her head and decided to move on.

"Relationships suck." She told him.

Stefan smirked. "They definitely suck." Rosa could tell he had something else he still wanted to say. She looked at him and smiled softly. "I'm sorry about before."

Rosa nodded. She never really forgave him, she just decided it didn't matter anymore. "I needed a friend and Caroline off having sex or something with Tyler."

"Well, I appreciate it anyway." Rosa smiled at him. "I'm going to find that cure for you."

Rosa shook her head and scoffed. "No, you are going to find it for Elena."

"No, I'm done with that."

Rosa nodded. "Sure...if you say so." Stefan glared at the girl, but she sighed. "Okay. Find it for me to give to Elena. Then use whatever's left for Rebekah so I can kill her. Then you and me can go ride off into the sunset or whatever weird things people do."

Stefan began to laugh and nod. "Sure Rosa. Whatever you want."

Rosa sat on her bed, waiting fir Jeremy to pick up. At the last ring he finally answered. "Hey, Rosa." He said emphasizing her name.

"Hey. I really needed to talk to you. Are you busy?"

There was a long pause and Rosa could have sworn she heard Damon say something. "No, I'm not busy. Why? What's up?"

"Well, I miss you. Also, Rebekah had Elena spill all her Damon loving secrets to Stefan and me and Caroline. Then she compelled Tyler to turn and then kill me and then the rest of them."

Jeremy said nothing. "Hang up." She definitely heard Damon's voice that time.

"Why are you with Damon?"

"Helping with my vampire killing thing. Remember?"

Rosa sighed. "How could I forget? The root of all my problems. You don't even want to know what Klaus did. God, he is such an ass!" Rosa shouted through the phone.

She heard Jeremy snicker slightly. "He definitely is. He's also standing right in front of me. He seems to think your relationship is going great."

Rosa didn't say anything for a minute. Why would Klaus be with Jeremy? What could he be doing? "Tell him to think again. I'm not really into the whole psycho mom killer thing at the moment. Bye."

The phone beeped as she pressed the bright red button. Only a few minutes later Rosa's phone rang. She looked at the caller ID, not recognizing it. But she knew who it was.

She held her finger over the glowing green button. She hadn't talked to Klaus since she found out he killed Tyler's mom. And she really wasn't in the mood to talk to him now, but for some reason she let her finger fall on the screen and the ringing stopped.

She didn't say anything so Klaus immediately started to talk. "Please don't be angry with me." He said. It almost seemed like he regretted it. "You wouldn't understand." Almost.

"Okay then, please enlighten me on why you killed Carol Lockwood." Rosa said angrily.

Klaus' breath slowed as he thought of an excuse. "You wouldn't understand." He repeated.

"You're right. I don't understand and I never will. Why can't you just try to be good? Why can't you be good for me? So we can be together."

Rosa didn't know why she cared so much. That was a lie. Of course she knew. Klaus was her soulmate. Her person. She was in love with Klaus Mikaelson. Rosa knew that no matter what Klaus does she'll always be in love with him.

"I've been trying to make this work. I really have. But you keep screwing it up."

Klaus frowned. "I promise I'm done. This was it. My last revenge. Now I just need to get the cure and leave Mystic Falls for good." Rosa sat up in her bed and looked out the window. "And I want you to come with me."

Klaus Mikaelson wanted Rosa to leave Mystic Falls with him. To go somewhere else. Somewhere away from her house, her friends, family. Her memories.

"No."

"No?"

"No. I can't leave. Especially not with you. Klaus I can't handle this anymore. My life sucks. Everything is ruined and you only make things worse. Maybe...maybe if you didn't kill Tyler's mom—"

Klaus' voice began to raise. "So our relationship is over because of the hybrid."

"The hybrid has a name. Tyler is a person and he's my friend and he's Caroline boyfriend and you're a jerk. How could you not care. The people's lives that your messing with and torturing are my friends and family. So how could you think that I would leave all of them to go be with you?"

Klaus didn't respond. What was he supposed to say to that? "Rosalina, I promise this was it. I'm done harming those you care about."

"Oh really? Then why are you with Jeremy?"

"I need his hunters mark to find the cure." Rosa sighed. "You should come."

She scoffed. "Why did you do it? Everything was so good and you just wrecked it. Why did you have to do it? I was happy. Why can't you let me be happy?"

"Rosalina, I would really rather talk in person. I want to see you."

"Well that sucks cause I don't want to see you. Bye." She said.

"No. Do not hang up—" She heard Klaus shout right before she hung up.

Dear Jenna,
It's been a while. I thought I was over your death, but I'm not. I've been missing you a lot lately. My life has turned to a big stinky pile of shit. I made the mistake of letting Klaus into my life. Thinking that I could trust him and actually be happy with him and  it's not working. He keeps messing it up and I keep forgiving him like an idiot. I just really wish you were here so you could tell at me and tell me how stupid I'm being. Just come back from your peace for like 5 seconds and fix my life. I really need it. I love you.
Bye,
Rosa.
