@tetheredtoelena  vengeance knows no mercy

He had burned their home to the ground and left her. She had forgiven him for everything but it didn’t matter. She didn’t matter. Jeremy Gilbert was who he was. He returned to New Orleans and Klaus Mikaelson. And Madeline returned to Hawaii. It was always a naive thought to think that would be the end of her ties to him. That one day everything he had ever done wouldn’t come back to haunt him. Actions had consequences. Sometimes they just took longer to catch up with you then others might.

Hawaii had been peaceful. There she felt like maybe she could start a new life. She could never walk the beaches without thinking of him, of the day he proposed, and passing by the spot where they got married but they were some of the happiest memories of her life. And whatever pain she felt she could handle as long as she remembered those. It took some talking with her Mom and a little convincing but Madeline finally decided to make the permanent move to Hawaii. She just needed to go back to Mystic Falls first and grab what little things she had that weren’t burnt down in the house fire and say her goodbyes.

She died within three days of being home. They came for her just as she was leaving the Grille after catching up with a couple of friends. And she didn’t have to ask herself why. The answer was all too obvious. Death was supposed to be peaceful. And for a few moments she supposed it was. She got to see her parents and everyone else she had every lost. They were finally together again. Until she was being pulled away and she couldn’t reach them and everything became black. When she woke again it was Mary’s face above her and she was… alive? It was slightly disorienting for a day or two and she argued with her mother but finally Madeline pulled herself together. She knew what she had to do.

The vampire was on the next flight that day to New Orleans and didn’t find it as hard as she expected to find Jeremy. When she laid her eyes on him he was already covered in blood, a scared looking vampire in front of him who looked like he might just die from fear alone. Clearly news traveled fast. Walking up behind the vampire, whose height hid her from Jeremy’s view, she was quick to snap his neck and watch as he dropped to the ground before her gaze returned to the man in front of her. “Hey babe. You miss me?”

He had been christened in their blood, arising anew from the ashes of his crumbled life. Madeline was dead, and there wasn’t a place in hell that could keep a vampire safe from him. Just the right combination of reckless and calculated, Jeremy had made his way through the red stained streets of New Orleans, leaving no room for mercy– no survivors to crawl back to their boss. Klaus would know, of course he would. And while his instincts screamed that there was something terribly wrong about causing all this carnage without seeing retribution, blind vengeance drove him forward, hunting down every last one of his former fellow soldiers.

This one, this one was a nobody– a fresh recruit who had barely cut his canines on an enemy yet. No discrimination. They’d all fall. And he’d toyed with this one, having already ripped out his vocal cords a couple blocks back to, well, send a message. But before he could finish, Jeremy watched as the young half-throated vampire’s head snapped all the way around until the undead being was no longer facing him. He fell in an unceremonious heap, as the youngest Gilbert allowed himself a moment of shock.

The surprise quickly changed into fear, followed by grief-fueled rage. That voice was too convincing– her face, almost unrecognizable. A snarl of denial curled his lips as empty hands furled into fists, robbed of their kill. “So rather than face me and end this, this is what our immortal hybrid king does?” His eyes flicked over the shadows surrounding them, voice raised, looking for the perpetrator. This one he’d enjoy killing second only to the man who gave the order. “Sends a witch to disturb the dead?”
