Off To New Orleans.

"Can I help you?" She asked.

"I am looking for Caroline Forbes." He told her. "I am at the right address, am I not?"

"Yes…" Caroline looked at him. "Who are you?"

"Elijah Mikaelson."

"Oh….."

She didn't say anything.

"Are you Caroline?" He asked.

"I am."

"Can I ask you a personal question?"

"You can," Caroline shut the door, and came out. "But you might not get an answer."

Elijah smiled. He could see why Klaus would like her. Fierce. Protective, but with class.

"Do you know Niklaus?"

"Klaus? Yes." She told him. "I do know Klaus."

"Tell me something…." He shook his head, "Why are you rejecting Niklaus?"

He asked.

"Well, Mr. Mikaelson." Caroline took a step down from the stairs. "That is not none of your business, is it?"

She tilted her head, and smiled.

"Listen to me…"

He took her arm and pulled her back.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" She asked.

Pulling her hand away.

A vampire….Interesting. Elijah thought to himself.

"Niklaus hasn't felt anything for anyone in nine centuries!" He almost yelled loudly.

"And I can't let you do this to him!"

"That is none of your business!" She shouted. "Let me go!"

"I can't do this!" Elijah yelled, "Not any longer!"

"What do you mean?"

"I am not spending any more time redeeming Klaus!" He yelled. "You might be the only person who can fix it!"

"You are crazy!" Caroline yelled back. "Crazier than Klaus!"

"Perhaps." Elijah shook his head. "You may be right about that."

Caroline came down the other stair, and started to walk ahead. Ignoring the lunatic standing before her.

Elijah zoomed towards her, and forced her into the wall.

"Sorry, Caroline." He whispered. "But this is for Niklaus!"

"Why….?" Caroline was scared. "What is?"

"You will accept Niklaus's offers." His eyes pierced into hers. "You will not break his heart!"

Her pupils dilated,

"I will accept Klaus's offers." She repeated like a robot. "I will go to New Orleans."

"You will forget that you ever knew me."

"I don't know you."

He let go of her arms, she gasped softly. Elijah Mikaelson disappeared at the end of the street as Caroline sank on the floor. She didn't know what to do.

She had no idea what happened. She automatically felt drawn to the mailbox, so she opened it.

A letter from Klaus. And….a first class ticket.

She looked at the letter...she smiled.

"I am coming to New Orleans, Klaus." She whispered. Looking at the ticket in her hands.

Caroline Forbes called Tyler.

"Hey, Caroline…" He replied pleasantly.

They had come to good terms since that. He was coming back to Mystic Falls. He had gotten off the revenge plans.

"I think I'll be back in three da…." He started to tell her.

"Don't." Caroline told him abruptly. "I am done with you."

"What?"

"I can't wait around for you anymore!"

"What?"

"I am done with you, Tyler." She said carelessly. "We are breaking up."

She was never that cruel. But the Mikaelsons were. If the Mikaelsons were involved, even the soft hearted ones became cruel.

He had been her first love, but she just didn't seem to care about him. At all.

And she told everyone that she was leaving Mystic Falls. Maybe, for good.

Caroline Forbes had no idea why she was going to New Orleans...Her friends didn't know why she was going to New Orleans. Stefan asked her multiple times, and he got the same answer every time….

"I have to go, Stefan. I just have to go."
