Nefarious Presumption

Chapter 27:"We are the definition of cursed."

"Where is the bloody bastard?" Torsten demanded to know.

"I don't know he's looking for Rebekah and Marcel, he said he thought they were at the cemetery." Cami rushed. Torsten then sighed sternly as he nodded to her disappearing. Once he made it to the cemetery his eyes gazed around trying to hear for anyone, any of his siblings he found the voices of Elijah and Rebekah and he turned trying to exit but was pushed back. Grunting he landed on the ground rubbing his head.

"Rebekah! Rebekah! Cherish the breath in your lungs! It'll be your last." Klaus shouted through the cemetery. Torsten got up and ran towards where he saw Rebekah his eyes wide.

"Come on sister, we need to hide you." Torsten ushered her forward as his hand was on her lower back pushing her forward.

"How am I sure you aren't going to betray me again?" Rebekah demanded to know her eyes narrowed.

"Because despite all I have done...I would never wish for you to die Beks." Torsten muttered as he pushed her forward and as they made their way through the cemetery they came to a crossroads and sae Elijah standing there.

"Elijah" Rebekah breathed out.

"What are you doing here? Rebekah, you should be on the other side of the world by now." Elijah whispered gravely as Torsten and Rebekah walked up closer to Elijah.

"We all know that wouldn't have been far enough." Rebekah quivered with fear.

"I hate to interrupt but he stole the white oak. We need to run." Torsten muttered as he felt a presence behind him and they all turned to see Klaus in the distance.

"Get away from her" Klaus shouted with fury. "She's mine" Klaus growled as his eyes darkened and Elijah followed in suit gripping the tunde blade and Torsten stood in front of Rebekah and his eyes darkened as well ready to fight for Rebekah's life.

"Beks maybe you should leave." Torsten suggested.

"Don't move!" Klaus shouted.

"We're stuck here." Rebekah bit back her voice shaking.

"Nik you aren't really going to use that on family are you?" Torsten asked taking a bold step forward unimpressed with the lengths his brother would go to just to prove a point.

"I am just watch me. I stole if from Torsten just for you sister." Klaus grit through his teeth.

"Get out of his sight, your presences here only serves to anger him." Elijah pointed out to Rebekah.

"Leave him to us Beks." Torsten ordered and Rebekah disappeared from his sight.

"Now I'm asking you brother to brother, we end this nonsense now." Elijah demanded sternly as Klaus stepped forward pointing the stake at the two brothers in front of him.

"You two would side with that traitor?" Klaus spat with pure hate.

"Niklaus...there are no sides, we need to keep our family united, we have lost enough of our family as it is." Torsten pointed out sternly.

"We cannot leave this cemetery how long do you think you two can defend her?" Klaus asked and in that moment Torsten glanced over at Elijah disappearing to go and find Rebekah before Klaus could. Once he made it to Rebekah his hand gripped her and pulled her into a crypt.

"Come on Beks; let's get you away from his sight. Are you okay?" Torsten asked with a sigh as his eyes didn't leave Klaus.

"Marcel wants us to run; I don't know if I want to live my life looking over my shoulder again." Rebekah shared her voice shaking and Torsten sighed pulling her into a tight embrace.
