Day 5 [Klaus/ Steven/ Daniel]

Prompt: Worst way to find out your girlfriend is pregnant (kidnapping)

Klaus

The sight of police cars, and all the flashing red and blue lights clouded Klaus's vision. This... this couldn't be... surely this wasn't your apartment, right?

Klaus barely made it up to the front of the blockade around the doors, only for his worst suspicions to be confirmed. His heart sank faster than a stone in water, this couldn't be happening, right? Right!?

"Sir! Stay bac--"

"Klaus!" Daniel Law strode right over in a huff, "This is your girlfriend's place, right?"

"Yes it is Detective."

"Then you'd know more about if anything is missing." Daniel wasn't gentle about pulling Klaus into his worst nightmare, "Better to tell if this was a random attack or a targeted one."

Klaus tried to swallow the lump in his throat as he stepped into the torn-up living room. Everything was scattered about the floor, and apart from the empty feeling in the pit of Klaus's stomach it truly looked as if you were the only thing taken from your apartment.

Something clicked under Klaus's shoe. At first, he thought he had broken it completely, but there were only a few tiny plastic shards missing. Klaus had a feeling those shards were in the sole of his shoe but the plastic object had his full attention.

"What is it?" Daniel was peering around Klaus's arm, "Something finally out of place?"

Klaus just wordlessly picked up the pregnancy test he had stepped on. Upon further examination, his blood ran ice cold. Everything around Klaus stopped registering, nothing but this small piece of plastic in his hands was even real to him.

Whoever kidnapped you, had two reasons to be absolutely terrified when Klaus would inevitably break down their door.

.

Steven

As soon as Steven was finished with his work, he headed straight for your apartment. He had seen the numerous texts from you but he still had yet to read them all. He just knew that talking in person about whatever this was would be much better.

But the way the apartment was quiet was just too eerie for Steven's taste. Sure he knew you were likely fast asleep, but there was a feeling of unease hanging in the air tonight.

Steven took his time going through the whole apartment, flipping lights on as soon as he entered every room. And by the time he swept the whole place, it became crystal clear that you weren't here. Steven checked his phone to make sure you weren't just at his apartment tonight.

Steven felt something in the pit of his stomach, not a single message on here about being at his apartment but...

"I went to the doctor and found out I'm pregnant."

If anyone else were to see Steven, it would look like his very shadows were twisting and manifesting into clones of himself. However, this was simply his goon squad showing up, being given the orders to search for you wherever you were.

Steven would make sure that whoever did this would be buried in ice and shattered into dust.

.

Daniel

Daniel was hoping this was just someone getting the address slightly wrong, that you were completely safe and that it was actually someone else's house being robbed. But in this god-forsaken city who could really say.

For once there was nothing on the radio as he pulled into your driveway. His stomach turned as he looked at the front door wide open, something you'd never do. This was going to be bad.

Standing in the middle of scattered papers, broken decorations, and other random debris from what looked like your junk box, Daniel could only breathe as he tried to calm his nerves. Other officers were combing through the main parts of the house. It would be up to Daniel to check the bedroom and bathrooms, even professional officers weren't comfortable with this situation.

What Daniel did find was your phone sitting on the bathroom sink, next to a pregnancy test. It was clear that you were a random victim, and the most likely thing was that you were in here when the house was broken into. And interrupted the purp while he was searching for valuables, then forced into a car ride to escape quickly. Given there wasn't any blood or a body to speak of.

Daniel's hand gripped the bathroom counter until his knuckles turned white. All he could do right now was hope you were okay, that and maybe ask for help.

God, he hated the idea of asking them for help. But this wasn't a normal situation.

Day 3 [Dog/ Raju/ Aligula]

Prompt: "Why'd you save me?"

Dog

Things weren't looking good in the slightest. This city could be relentless and Dog was only ever able to get out for instances that had the city practically under siege. He just wanted to go see you for a change, was that really too much to ask.

Though he was thoroughly shocked to see you in the middle of all the action, using a frying pan as a weapon and shield of all things. It was a bit mesmerizing to say the least, until you hurled the cook ware right at him.

Of course, Dog was more than capable of dodging it, but he didn't realize what you had really been aiming at. A large creature was knocked back with a frying pan in its face.

"Why did you save me?" Dog blurted out, "I'm suppose to be saving you!"

"Can't we discuss this later?" You nearly yelped as he scooped you over his shoulder, "Ya know, when there aren't a hundred-something monsters running around?"

"Right right, sorry."

.

Raju

The pain both of you were in, despite the razor-sharp fangs digging into your neck, draining your vitality, sinking in deeper for what felt like the 12th time already. Raju was frozen in disbelief, not wanting to believe his eyes, hoping desperately that this was all a terrible nightmare.

"You won't be able to move for a moment my dear," The tall figure behind you cooed, "Unfortunate side effects of becoming what your ex considers just a monster."

The hand gripping the cane was in serious danger of becoming pure white, even as the loud crack of splintered wood and bone rang through the silence. Raju didn't even begin to think of using flame and wind to destroy the blood breed in front of him. Thankfully this one wasn't Elder class, but that didn't make your transformation any less painful.

The shrieks that would haunt Raju's every waking moment as well as his nightmares. Unable to do more than watch, he refused to accept that you would change any. And you woke up safely tucked in bed. Unable to move due to Raju's limp form covering your body.

"Raju?" He stirred sleepily, head raising just enough that you were confident he could hear you, "Why did you save me? I'm a... a..."

"Shh." Raju petted your head, gently stroking your face, "You're better than that brute I put down. Far stronger a person than most."

.

Aligula

Everything seemed to be going just fine, all your calculations were sound and the vials on the counter were perfectly measured out. It was just a matter of the clingy, pink-haired girl on your arm. You couldn't ignore her forever.

"C'mon baaaaabe!" Aligula whined, "Can't this waaaait? I neeeeeeed you!"

You let out a long sigh, "You always neeeeed me. Just a few more minutes and I'll be done. I promise."

Aligula huffed and stormed off a little, pouting like a spoiled brat again. It wasn't like this would take forever, and what Aligula didn't know was that this was something for her specifically.

After pouring the final vial into the bowl, you stood back. This thing would be a slimy mess at first, nothing that a good shake wouldn't solve. And just before it could shake the gunk off its fur, the creature tried to lunge at you.

Of course, you'd forgotten the pacifier gene. You always seemed to do that.

But Aligula was quick to defend you, throwing an instant fire starter at the little monster. Leaving you only slightly dazed after tripping on your coattails.

You blinked slowly, "Why... why'd you save me?"

"So you can keep cuddling me!" Aligula stamped her foot, grabbing the collar of your coat and dragging you off, "And since I saved your life, you can't get out of it!"

"But I made that creature for you, it was just about to become a cute little fluff ball!"

"No excuses! Cuddles!"

Little Out of It [Klaus x Reader]

Requested by Anonymous 😢

Klaus had long since spotted the symptoms of his wife's decline. Symptoms of postpartum depression, something Klaus was hoping would be short lived. He thought he had proper preparations, thinking the same issues would arise as they had after the birth of their older daughter.

Sadly, where you had once ate until you were sick, Klaus was now attempting to coax you into eating. Even if it was simply a bit more than last time you attempted to eat. Keeping you company despite your withdrawal, attempting to keep your daughter from thinking you didn't love her anymore. Countless explanations dancing around explaining what depression was to a seven year old. Making sure that your infant son wasn't without parental interaction, as that does lead to complications in development.

Of course Gilbert was a large help with some of these things, namely in getting you to eat something. But Klaus was still running himself ragged. He wanted so desperately to help you, and yet he could feel himself cracking.

Though his determination refused to let him give up. The last thing Klaus wanted to do was give up on the love of his life, the woman who had given him everything he wanted in life.

Klaus settled into the bed behind his wife, curling his arms around you tightly. Hiding the small frown when you shrank in his embrace. He wasn't entirely sure how much longer he could hold back his own tears, it was heartbreaking to see how badly this affected you. Klaus just wanted this to pass, he knew it wouldn't last forever, that you weren't usually like this. If only there was something more he could do to help you in this mental state.

"Klaus?"

The low hum from Klaus sounded a little more distant than normal, especially as he was reluctant to loosen his grip around you. Even though you were trying to roll over to face him.

"I know this is a lot on you. I'm sorry."

A large thumb swiped at your tears, "Shh, this isn't your fault Liebling. I'll be okay."

"But it isn't right for you to bear all this..." The look in your eyes struck Klaus so much harder than it should have, "Especially with you caring for both our children. I... I haven't made things easier. I want to shake this but..."

"Shh, easy Liebe." Klaus pressed a soft kiss to your forehead, "I'm right here, I'll always be right here. I know you'll make a full recovery."

"I love you. I need you to know that." Your voice sounded smaller against his chest, but Klaus was going to comfort you, "I love you so much. I love our kids, I just... I just."

Klaus gently rubbed his chin across the top of your head, nuzzling ever so gently as he was known for, "I know Liebling. I make sure our children know. Things will get better mien Schatzi, I promise."

You were torn between low energy and the soft comforting gesture of Klaus rubbing your back. Just before you fell to sleep, you heard the deep rumbling of Klaus's voice.

"Ich liebe dich, mien Hertz"

Day 1 [Klaus/ Steven/ Femt]

Prompt: "You lied"

Klaus

If only Klaus had kept his mouth shut. If he had approached the situation differently. If he hadn't done that in the first place.

And now here you were, walking out the front door because of his actions.

You hadn't gotten explosively upset and Klaus was grateful for that. But you were still leaving on a sour note. And there wasn't anything Klaus could do to stop you, this meeting was instrumental to your career after all.

But if only Klaus could come with you, things might smooth out faster, wouldn't they? And yet, your last words rang through Klaus's mind as if to deafen him.

"You mean to tell me that everything I thought was a lie?" That aggravated sigh, "That the only reason you asked me out was a love potion?"

Even stating how the potion worked hadn't helped, not when you were upset. Klaus could only hope that you would return in a better mood, or perhaps even text when you got there safely. He would always worry, even if everything about his life was on shaky ground.

.

Steven

Steven didn't know what to say at the moment. His lover was sitting in disbelief over what they just witnessed. It was disheartening to say the least.

While he hadn't kept it secret as to the fact that he was dangerous, he never did explain why he was dangerous. And that hadn't really come up until tonight. When his split second decision to protect his work, his friend, and you all in one fell swoop had taken a turn for the worst.

Steven desperately hoped that this was just the adrenaline and fear.

"Why?" You finally spoke between shaky breaths, "Why would you lie like? To me?"

"[Name], I wasn't lying. I just-"

"You lied by omission Steven! That..."

You trailed off, looking away. Backing away from Steven and his open arms.

"That's the same as lying." You sighed, "Sure I have my secrets too. But it's not like I'm covering up the existence of other people in the apartment."

"[Name], it's not like that. I can't explain it without putting you at risk." Steven kept trying to step closer, "I would never lie to hurt you. I want to keep you safe, that's all."

"Then why didn't you tell me you had a spectral squad in the house?"

.

Femt

You looked down at the city in abject horror. What had you done? And why had Femt of all people perpetuated this?

"You alright dearie?" The familiar half giggle over your shoulder, "You seem a bit pale."

Your mind churned, processing what you were seeing, "You lied to me. You said these things were harmless."

"Hm? Did I?" Femt tapped his chin, "I'm pretty sure there was a little something about they wouldn't harm you. But I never said that these giant pig-creatures were completely harmless."

You turned on your heel. Facing the typically sweet man... or was he just, sweet to you? Had he been using you this whole time? Lying and manipulating you to do this?

"Oh don't give me that look dearie." Femt slid an arm around your shoulders, "It isn't the end of the world. It's merely a game. And trust me, you'll get use to those Libra goodie-goodies spoiling the fun."

You pushed Femt's arm off, stepping away from him, "This... This isn't fun Femt. You lied to me about what you do. You used me to hurt innocent people. Games shouldn't come with a death clause."

Femt frowned, the reality of the situation setting in. Just how upset you were over this. He could either dig his grave deeper, and keep you around out of fear. Or he could try to salvage the moment. Both solutions would take work in the long run...

Though the look on your face spelled it out very clearly.

Day 9 [Klaus/ Zed/ Raju]

Prompt: "I've made better choices, I have to admit"

Klaus

Having woken with a splitting headache, Klaus was not the least bit surprised to find himself in the hospital. He was grateful to be waking up at all, though the pained faces he saw twisted his heart in knots. From his close friends and teammates, Klaus half expected their misconceptions of having caused Klaus's injuries. What he wasn't expecting was you standing there like a ghost.

For once, Klaus couldn't read your face at all. He was able to placate everyone else and convince them he would bounce back easily. Telling them what they already knew, what they wanted to hear. But you were the last person to move at all. Refusing Steven's offer to go home just yet.

While Klaus was overall delighted to have a few moments alone with you, part of him dreaded what might come next.

"[Name], Liebling." Klaus reached towards you as you sat, same glassy stare, "I've made better choices I must admit."

Klaus couldn't bring himself to chuckle, not even half-heartedly at his own poorly executed joke. But seeing you not even react to his touch was deeply concerning to Klaus.

"Please, what's wrong Shatzi?"

"This." That cold and distant tone didn't suit you at all, "Seeing you like this isn't right. People like you don't get hurt, not like this. All these tubes and wires and--"

Klaus gently covered your mouth with his thumb. He knew what you meant, he agreed with you on some level, and yet...

"Liebling, this is the unfortunate underside of my job." He tried to coax you into looking at him, "I may fall, but I know I've done everything in my power to protect the people I treasure most. I struggle towards the light no matter how badly it might break my body. No matter the hell I have to go through, the fact that I'm protecting you, ensuring that you can go on and live whatever dreams that you'd fancy. I--"

"Can you stop that?!"

Klaus blinked, confused. You were unable to keep everything from spilling out. Klaus was the one hurt, you should have been strong for his sake. But you just couldn't take how he was talking at the moment.

You finally met his steady gaze, "You're injured. But you're still trying to comfort me. Where is the limit of your... of your..."

"Liebling--"

"Why do you have to be so perfectly selfless?"

You finally snapped, unable to get a full sentence out due to your crying. Hiccuping incomplete thoughts and apologies, trying to hide from Klaus but not really. Klaus knew you didn't mean to lash out like that, he understood just how it hurt you to see him like this.

To see that he just didn't falter even after nearly breaking every bone in his body.

.

.

Zed

There was too much going on at the moment. Zed was trying to ignore the blood staining his tank top, the way your breathing was slowing down from over his shoulder, and the words coming out of your mouth as he carried you through the dense jungle.

"I've made better choices..." You were struggling with breathing, "I have to admit."

"[Name], save your strength. We're almost out."

"I don't regret what I did back there." You needed to get this out, you didn't know if you would make it out, "I did what I had to do. Because I love you... I'd do it again in a heartbeat."

"I love you too sweetheart." Zed huffed a little as he climbed over a large root, "But please save your energy. We're almost out of here."

"Zed..."

The panic Zed felt as your head dropped against his shoulder was paralyzing. Everything was spinning in his mind, even moving forward felt wrong somehow. But he had to get you to safety, to someone who could help you.

Raju

Floating just at the foot of your hospital bed was something Raju never wanted to see. He knew you were a fang hunter, injuries would happen. But this time it was just too far. All these machines hooked up to make sure you were okay. He couldn't stand seeing you like this.

You were so weak looking and he hated it.

Raju almost fell out of the air when you stirred. Floating so close to you he might as well be on top of you. His glowing eyes burrowing into your soul.

"I've made better choices I have to admit."

No response. Raju just hovered there, blinking and watching your every move. Every slight wince as you moved and breathed. You couldn't brush any of this under the rug, Raju was worried and pissed.

"What were you doing to end up like this?"

Raju's voice was practically knives as he spoke. You knew why he wanted this information.

"It was a demon beast, a natural one." You said slowly, "Klaus mentioned it was handled before I passed out from the pain killers."

Raju sighed in a strained way. Weighing his options, what did he really want at the moment?

You were pleasantly surprised when he settled carefully around your shoulder. Stroking your hair slowly and just breathing. There wasn't anything he could say in this moment, nothing he could really do. Just sit here and make sure you were safe.
