Chelsea's POV

I never thought my life would turn out the way it has. In my past I never thought I would be engaged to one of the Originals and have be pregnant as a vampire. It was still a surprise to me that I was pregnant, but it felt right. That could be my witch side, but I was happy... despite what has been going on around me.

After Klaus proposed, we ended up officially moving to New Orleans. It was during our original visit there that we learned that I was pregnant. According to Sophie Devereaux, the reason I was able to have children is because I was born a witch and Klaus a werewolf. She also said that her along with the other witches in New Orleans were more or less being controlled by Marcel. Marcel was turned by Klaus at least a couple hundred years before I was born. Marcel is also the self-titled King of New Orleans... although Klaus wants that title for himself since he helped build the town with his family. I wanted to help him, but I also wanted to help Sophie and the other witches. It felt partly my responsibility because I was also a witch, even though I didn't practice the same type of magic. I was stronger than them and could use magic without getting caught by whoever or whatever told Marcel about witches using magic.

It was a dangerous situation for us since I was pregnant, but I knew Klaus wouldn't let anything bad happen to me. I could protect myself, but I liked the fact that Klaus was protective of me.

I've stayed with Nik in New Orleans all summer. I spend most of it getting used to the city and knowing my way around. It did help that Nik knew where everything was and even though he wanted me to stay near the house, he's shown me almost the whole city. Everything was amazing, besides the fact that he was overprotective of me.

I had my arm through Nik's as we followed Marcel.
"The city of New Orleans... people of all stripes and flavors from all over the country come here to party on our streets." Marcel said to us as he showed us what he has been up to since Nik left. We didn't learn much about what he has done because I almost always convinced Nik to show me around the town. "Some are just looking for fun... some are looking for something a little darker, more dangerous. So, we invite them into my home and we give it to them. Then, at the stroke of midnight, everything changes, and it's time to feed." The three of us stopped and looked down at the party. At the stroke of midnight, all the vampires below us started to feed on the humans. I didn't say anything to Nik, but the scent of the blood was making me hungry. I think Nik noticed because he moved his hand a little to rub the back of mine. "This is how I keep my guys happy, the occasional, all-you-can-eat buffet. My night-walkers love it. I've got 'em working hard, trying to earn one of these daylight rings. They deserve to blow off a little steam. My day-walkers, the trusted few, they just like the party."
"What about the people you feed from?" I asked because I noticed Nik was looking at something. "You can't kill them all without someone coming after you." Marcel gave me a semi-impressed look.
"We don't kill 'em all. Too many folks go missing, tourism drops. So, we heal them with a little vamp blood, erase their memory, and send them on their way. No muss, no fuss." He said to me and even though I didn't say anything, I thought it was a good idea. 'What if someone had vervain?' I asked myself.
"I'm impressed." Nik said to Marcel, which brought me out of my thoughts.
"Nothing I didn't learn from you back in the day." Marcel said before one of the vampires he was closest to came up to him. I didn't listen to them because I couldn't help but think of Nik. I knew the type of person he was and I loved him, but I still didn't like the darker side of him. Although he didn't show it around me, I knew that it was still a part of him.
"I'm getting tired." I said after I yawned. "I think I'm gonna go home." I kissed Nik on the cheek and was about to walk away, but he picked me up and held me in his arms. I smiled and put my arms around his neck before realizing that he was also listening in on Marcel.
"I think I'm going to take my girl home mate." Nik said to Marcel, who looked at me.
"Tired already?" Marcel asked me.
"A little. I'm not used to staying up past midnight" I semi-lied. "Or it could be that I want him all alone." I gave a smirk to Marcel so he knew what I meant. I looked up at Nik and kissed him. He smiled at me and kissed me back. He pulled away and before he sped us away.

It took me a few moments to realize Nik sped me to his room. He moved his hands up my sides, under my tank top.
"Nik..." I whispered "...my jacket first." He looked in my eyes with a smirk on his face before quickly taking off my jacket.
"That's better." He whispered in my ear before kissing down my neck.
"I know a way to make it even better." I whispered before moving my hands down to his waist. We looked in each other's eyes and he knew what I was thinking.
"I love the way you think." I quickly loosened his belt and he took my tank top off.
"I love you." I whispered and I didn't worry about a reply from him. I knew he loved me. How we spend the whole summer proved it.

I slowly opened my eyes and looked out the window that was in Nik's room. The sun shined through the tree leaves and made the day look good. All of a sudden, I could smell eggs and ham. I lifted my head to see Nik walking in with a tray.
"Breakfast in bed?" I asked with a smile as I moved into a sitting position. "I must have done something good." He placed the tray below my knees and gave me a kiss.
"Anything for my queen." I couldn't help but smile. "And my princess." He kissed my belly and I knew he was talking about our unborn child. Over the summer I told him that I had a strong feeling that our child was going to be a girl. We both knew to trust my feelings, especially since they've rarely been wrong. I'm pretty sure he wanted a son, but he was just as happy with having a girl.
"You're going to spoil us Nik." I said as I cupped his face and kissed him.
"You're mine to spoil." He moved the tray closer to me. "Now eat. I'll be downstairs." I couldn't help but smile as he walked out of the room. I looked at the breakfast he made me and couldn't help but think that he's so nice towards me, despite what everyone else thinks of him. 'It was a good choice' I thought as I remembered before summer when I thought about moving with Nik or not. If I said I didn't want to, Nik would make an argument and I knew I would eventually say yes anyway. 'I love him' I thought before taking my first bite of the breakfast he made me. 'This is so good' I swallowed the food and could picture the other times he's cooked. 'He should teach me' I thought before eating the rest of the food.

I took my time eating the breakfast that Nik made me because I loved his cooking. When I was done, I took a shower and put clothes on before walking down the stairs. When I was half-way down the stairs, I could hear a car door close in front of the house. 'Who is that?' I asked myself before using my vampire hearing to listen in.
"Elijah, if not answering your phone is part of your clever plan to get me back to this godforsaken city, then well done. I'm here, and I'm worried. Now pick up before I kick in your bloody door." I couldn't help but smile because it was Rebecca and we haven't seen each other since before graduation. I sped to the door and opened it just before she could.
"Don't knock down the door Becca." I said and she looked a little surprised to see me. "I was wondering when you were coming." I hugged her before breaking away.
"I was expecting to see some kind of supernatural, miracle baby bump." Rebecca said after looking at my stomach. "Guess you're not showing yet."
"Thanks." I said with sarcasm. "You make me feel so loved." She must have known I was being sarcastic because she gave me a smirk. "I learned a spell that hides the baby bump, even though it's barely noticeable either way. That way I can go out without getting anyone suspicious."
"Where's Elijah?" I opened my mouth to tell her what happened to Elijah. I knew that if Nik was listening, he would get mad that I told Becca. She looked at me like she expected an answer, so I just tapped my ear so she knew why I wasn't saying anything.
"I don't know." I semi-lied and I knew Rebecca could tell. "He was talking to Nik the last time I saw him."
"Which means Niklaus has done something dastardly and Klaus-like. Klaus! Get out here and tell me what you've done with our brother, you narcissistic, back-stabbing wanker!" Rebecca shouted and I knew Nik heard her.
"Enough with all the shouting." Nik said as I turned towards him. He had come through the doors that were behind us. "Little sister, I should have known. I assume the six dead vampires were your doing?" Nik stepped towards us, mainly looking at Becca.
"They were very rude." Becca said to her brother. "Trying to victimize a poor, innocent girl just trying to find her way to the Quarter. So sorry, were they friends of yours? Oh, that's right, you don't have any friends."
"I do have friends." Nik walked up to my side and put his arm around my waist. "I have Chelsea." He kissed my head and I couldn't help but smile.
"A fiance isn't the same as a friend Nik." I said as I put my head against his chest. It was nice to have little moments with him, no matter what was happening around us.
"I have Marcel as a friend." Nik said to Rebecca. "You remember him, don't you? Yes, of course you do. He fancies himself the 'King of the Quarter' now, and he has these rules about killing vampires. It'll be fun to see what sort of punishment he comes up with for you." I didn't say anything because I knew no matter what went on between Nik and his siblings, he would still protect them.
"I don't care about Marcel or his rules." Rebecca said to Nik. "Elijah doesn't welch on deals. What did you do to him?"
"Perhaps he's on holiday..." I rolled my eyes because I knew what happened to Elijah, just not where he was "...or taking a long autumn nap upstairs. Well, go on. Take a look around." Rebecca started to go towards the stairs, but stopped when Nik spoke again. "You remember this house as well as I."
"I remember everything." Rebecca said before looking at me. "Why are you smiling?"
"I like learning about your history." I honestly said. Nik and his siblings lived for over 1000 years and seen so many thing, done so many things and it was interesting when I was able to learn about it.
"I remember how the drunken fool of a governor hid away all of our vampire sins in exchange for gold." Rebecca said after I decided to sit down. Nik decided to sit next to me and Rebecca on the other side of me. 'It feels like a family' II thought before Rebecca continued. "I remember the lavish parties the governor threw, as if to impress you. I remember finding a moment of affection with the governor's son, Emil. And I remember that even Elijah was happy." I couldn't help but smile at the fact that their whole family was happy. It was when they were still running from Mikeal, so it was nice to know that they were happy at one point. "Then when I wanted to turn him so we could be together, you killed him." I looked at Nik and sort of slapped him on his shoulder.
"Bad Klaus." I said, but I found myself smiling. He knew I was sort of kidding, even though I didn't like the fact that he stopped his sister from being happy with someone.
"Well, he wasn't good enough for you." Nik said after a few minutes to Rebecca.
"No one was ever good enough for me, Nik, you made sure of that. Now where is Elijah?" Becca asked him and then his phone vibrated. He took it out of his pocket, but I sneaked a peek. Marcel texted him, wanting to have a drink. I knew I couldn't go because of our baby, which meant I would have to stay in the house...or do stuff on my own. Nik stood up and started to walk towards the front door.
"Where are you going?"
"Drinks with Marcel." I said, knowing what the text said. Rebecca and Nik both looked at me before Rebecca looked at Nik.
"Elijah told me about your plan to take apart Marcel's empire piece by piece. I don't remember it involving you two drinking New Orleans dry together."
"I know you don't have many friends, Rebecca, but what some friends do when they get together is they drink." Nik said to Rebecca. "And when they drink, they tell secrets. Marcel has somehow found a way to control the entirety of witches in the Quarter, and I aim to uncover the 'how' so I might take it for myself. Finding Elijah didn't make my to-do list today." He started towards the door again, but stopped and turned towards us. "Oh, and welcome home, little sister." Nik said to Rebecca before giving me a small smile and leaving us together in the house.

I knew Nik knew what he was doing, but I was still worried about him.
"Fiance?" I heard Rebecca ask, which broke me out of my thoughts. "Since when are you guys engaged?" I held up my left hand to show her the ring Nik proposed with.
"He sort of purposed on graduation..." I said with a small smile because I could remember that day like it was yesterday "...then again over the summer when I visited my brother for my birthday." My birthday was over the summer and Nik and I sort of got into an argument the week before. I went to my brother's, who still lives in Mystic Falls, to get away for a little while. Nik eventually noticed I was missing and found out where I was. He spend my birthday with me, which was one of the best birthdays I've had.
"Happy birthday." Rebecca said to me with a smile as I lowered my ring.
"A little late but thanks."
"Where's Elijah?" She asked after a few minutes as she looked around. I listened in to make sure Nik wasn't in hearing distance, even with his hybrid hearing.
"The last time I saw him was upstairs..." I said when I was satisfied that Nik wouldn't be able to hear us "... before Nik daggered him a few months ago. I don't know where he took Elijah... but I think maybe in the house somewhere..." I didn't remember Nik taking Elijah's coffin out of the house, unless he did it when I was sleeping or away from the house.
"That means he's in one of the secret rooms." Rebecca said before standing up. "Come on..." I stood up and followed her.

After we found some flashlights, Rebecca said she was going to show me one of the secret rooms in the house. We were walking down an old spiral staircase that led underground, to an old basement room.
"The governor had lots of secret rooms." Rebecca said as we started to get closer to the bottom of the stairs. "I'll show you his favorite." We got to the bottom of the stairs and she opened one of the closest doors.
"Spiderwebs, eww." I said after feeling my hand get into one. I shook it off before looking in the room. "So this is where he put the coffins..." I said, forgetting that Rebecca could hear me. I knew he kept them close, but I didn't know where.
"He didn't tell you?" Rebecca asked me.
"I didn't ask..." I said as I started to walk towards the farthest coffin.
"This one's mine." I knew Rebecca was talking about the coffin behind me, but I just looked at the one in front of me. My mind knew who was inside it because they were the only other Original that was alive. Out the corner of my eye, I could tell that Rebecca shined her flashlight on the coffin I was standing in front of. "Why would he have that one?" She asked before I took a deep breath and opened it.
"I brought him back hours before Nik proposed." That day was clear in my head. It wasn't only because it was graduation and Nik proposed, but I was able to see my mom and Anna before the veil dropped again. Rebecca's footsteps brought me out of my thoughts and I knew she was standing beside me.
"...Kol. How?...Why?" Rebecca asked, clearly not knowing exactly what to say. The last time she saw him, he through a broken bottle at Matt's shoulder.
"I thought you guys needed your brother." I said with a small smile without looking at Rebecca. "And everything that Nik's done for me, I thought I should do something for him." I just looked at Kol's face. I liked hanging out with him, but I knew it was safer for him to have the dagger in his chest. "Practically everything is possible with Expression." I knew that if it wasn't for my access to Expression, I wouldn't have been able to bring Kol back to life. "Nik daggered him just after my birthday because Kol kept flirting with me." It felt weired to me because I actually missed his flirting, even though Kol knew I love Nik. "I would have undaggered him but I didn't know where Nik took him and plus you know his anger issues." I gave Kol a small smile, even though he couldn't see it, before I slowly closed his coffin.
"Elijah's isn't here, he must've stashed him elsewhere." Rebecca said as I stood straight from closing Kol's coffin. "Can you do a locator spell?" She asked me.
"I could try... I'm not sure it'll work on Elijah if he has a dagger in him." I looked at Becca. "I could just need a map of the city and a couple drops of your blood."
"Let's get to it." She said before the two of us walked out of the room. I stopped at the doorway and looked back at Kol's coffin before continuing to follow Rebecca before she could say anything.

We stood in the kitchen with a map that Becca found. It was spread out nice and flat over the kitchen isle. I looked up at Rebecca, who was standing next to me.
"All you have to do is let a few drops of your blood land on the map and I can do the spell." I said to her. She bit into her finger and let a few drops of her blood land on the map. "Here we go." I said before closing my eye sand taking a deep breath. When I opened my eyes, I focused my mind on finding Elijah. Rebecca's blood moved and thinned into a big circle that covered most of the city. "That's weird."
"What is it?" Rebecca asked with worry in her voice.
"I can't seem to find him." I just looked at her blood on the map. "That's never happened before. It probably has something to do with the dagger."
"Can you do a locator spell on the dagger?"
"I don't know." I said after a few minutes of thinking. "I've only ever tried to find people, not objects." My mind went through all the spells I knew. "I have an idea." I looked at Becca. "I'll look through my grimoires to help, but maybe you could try to find out if anyone has him." She nodded her head like she agreed to my plan. "I'll text you once I find something out." I gave her a small smile and watched as she left the room.

I couldn't help but wonder why I couldn't find Elijah with a simple locator spell. The Expression should have helped me, even if someone was trying to hide him. 'Maybe a witch has him' I thought, but that couldn't be true. The witches of the quarter weren't allowed to do magic without Marcel finding out about it. 'Maybe it's something else' I thought as I looked down at the map. 'Maybe a herb will help' As I cleaned the map of blood, I tried to think of what herbs would help my magic locate Elijah or the dagger inside him.

I went into the quarter and stopped at one of the shops that I knew sold herbs. It was also run by a witch, but one of them that didn't know who I was. When I asked for what I needed, it was obvious she knew I was a witch. Although I had a bad feeling about her, she didn't lie to me. I didn't try the locator spell...at least not right away. I couldn't help but do a little shopping.

I was still out when it was dark, so I sat down on a bench. After looking around and making sure that no one was around, I pulled out a map that I had bought. 'Maybe I can find him if I do the spell without anyone around' I thought before thinking of a way I could do a locator spell without putting anything on the map. My eyes closed as I took a deep breath. I was focusing my mind on finding the dagger that was in Elijah, but I heard some noises around me. I opened my eyes and stood up, ready to protect myself.
"Dumb move, trying to do magic in the quarter witch." I knew it was a vampire that said it because they appeared out of nowhere.
"Dumb move trying to threaten a witch." I said and stood, like I was going to physically attack them. When he started to move towards me, I focused on him and gave him an aneurysm. He clutched his head in pain and I when another one came to his side. He was affected by my magic as well. I kept focusing on them before Rebecca sped behind them. She snapped the neck of one and ripped the heart out of another.
"That'll teach you to mess with a pregnant lady." Rebecca looked at me with the heart in her hand. "I do hate bad manners."
"I had it handled." I said after stopping my magic.
"I couldn't let my pregnant sister-in-law defend herself."
"I'm not your sister-in-law yet Becca." I said before making sure all of my stuff was safe and in the same bag. "What are we going to do?" My mind couldn't help but flash to how Nik might react to Rebecca killing one of the vampires.
"Burn them." I was going to pick up one of them, but Rebecca stopped me. "Not you." She protectively said, obviously not wanting me to do it.
"Fine." I reluctantly said, knowing how stubborn and protective the Originals were. "Let's just hope we can get it done before Nik finds out." Rebecca picked up both of the bodies and I couldn't help but worry about his reaction.

I wasn't surprised that Nik found out about the dead vampire. I didn't say much because I knew how he could get when he was angry and he looked angry.
"This is why I told you not to do magic outside of the house." Nik said with anger towards me. "You know Marcel and the others won't take chances." Out the corner of my eye, I noticed Rebecca going towards the vampire that wasn't dead. "Leave him." Rebecca stopped and looked towards her brother. "You've done enough, don't you think? Leaving a trail of bodies like a road map to my door?"
"If I hadn't overheard this lot bragging about a witch possibly using magic, everyone here would be screwed." Rebecca yelled at Nik. "And don't give me that crap about having a plan. You've had all the time in the world to execute a plan, and no one's seen you do a damn thing! Elijah made a deal to protect your child, so that it could save you from your selfish, rotten self. But you obviously don't give a damn about the child or Elijah, because what have you done to honor it?" I stayed in my spot, not saying anything because I didn't want him to yell at me. I didn't know how far he would go when he was angry and I didn't want to find out.
"I have done everything. Let me spell it out for you, shall I? From the day Chelsea I arrived, Marcel hasn't trusted us." Nik said and I felt that his anger was mainly directed towards her. "From Day One, he's had his vampires ingest toxic vervain which, as you know, little sister, protects them from my mind control." I looked at the fire that was burning the dead vampire as Nik continued to talk to Rebecca. "I needed a spy, someone on the inside with me who Marcel would never suspect. So, I created a Day Zero and got there first. Marcel had just lost six vampires, thanks to your little murder spree, and he needed new recruits. So, I made the new one mine, before he'd had even a drop of vervain. And this one, I'm gonna drain him of vervain, compel him to believe his mates found religion and moved to Utah, so that he can explain to Marcel why he lost three more vampires tonight." It took me a little bit to realize that Rebecca was following Nik into the house.

I sped to the doorway of the house so I wouldn't be alone outside. Rebecca glanced at me, but I stayed silent even though I wanted to tell him to calm down.
"Does anyone have any more questions? No? Good, because I have a question. Chelsea, " 'Oh, no' "... what were you doing in the bloody French Quarter in the first place?"
"I was getting herbs and other things to help my magic." I said after taking a deep breath. "I wanted to find Elijah because someone decided not to put him downstairs with Kol." Nik looked a little surprised, but I knew he was still mad. "He is your brother and and a part of OUR family." It was clear that he was surprised that I said he was part of our family. Since I was engaged to Nik and having his child, his siblings were automatically added as a part of my family. He slowly sat down, but didn't look at anyone. I looked at Rebecca, who looked at me before slowly walking towards Nik. I stayed in my spot, even though I wanted to sit on the other side of him.
"I gave Elijah to Marcel." Nik quietly said after a few moments.
"What?" Rebecca and I both asked.
"Marcel was nervous. It's bad enough one Original returned to town, but two? His crew was getting antsy. He wanted Elijah gone, so... I gave him a peace offering." He glanced at me. "Another reason I daggered Kol." 'To keep him safe'
"You bartered our brother?" Rebecca asked with surprise in her voice.
"I have a plan. Gain Marcel's trust, dismantle his empire, honor Elijah's wish that that baby be born and above all, protect Chelsea." He glanced at me and I felt less nervous that he was going to explode in anger. "I am executing that plan the only way I know how. If you don't like it, there's the door. See if I care." Nik stood up and looked towards me before walking up the stairs. I looked at Rebecca, who was looking at me before I walked up the stairs. I went to my room instead of joining Nik in his because I felt that he still needed to cool down.

I couldn't go to sleep right away, so I went outside to sit on the porch. I noticed Rebecca was sitting alone, I decided to join her.
"Hey." I said, which made her look towards me. "Couldn't sleep either?" She just shook her head. "You know I could have taken those vampires earlier, right?" Rebecca just nodded her head.
"Family has to stick together." She said and I couldn't help but smile because she thought of me as family. "Even if you are engaged to my psychopathic brother."
"I don't know I'll get used to his anger." I said as I looked at the trees that were at the back of the yard. "How do you deal with it?"
"I don't know. After spending a thousand years with him, it's become normal." Out the corner of my eye, I could tell that Rebecca looked at me. "He's just protecting us," I looked towards him ", in his own weird way."
"Even though we have girl power." I said with a smile. Rebecca and I were both strong, in our own ways. "Do you think we can get Elijah back from Marcel?"
"If we do, Klaus can't find out. I don't want to end up back in that coffin." I looked at her for a minute before reaching into my coat and handing her something that I had wrapped.
"I did a little looking around the house earlier..." I said as I handed her what I took out from my jacket. She unwrapped it and saw that it was the two daggers that Nik had hidden "...they were under your coffin." She looked from the daggers to me. "I tried to do a locator spell with them, but it wasn't working and I wasn't going to put them back."
"Thank you." She said with a smile.
"Just don't tell Nik." I stood up and put my hand on my belly as I took off the spell that hid what baby bump I had. "I think Isabella needs her sleep."
"You've named her already?" Rebecca asked me.
"Not really. It's just one of the names I'm thinking of." I gave Rebecca a small smile. "Good night." She gave me a small nod before I went back inside and to my room.

I changed into a white pair of shorts and an oversized light green tank top before sliding into my bed. I put my arm over the big teddy bear that I brought from Mystic Falls. It was one at a carnival by Damon, who was sort of my boyfriend at the time. 'It was easier with you' I thought as I closed my eyes. I thought of both Damon and Klaus as I slowly fell asleep.

I could feel the sun's rays on my face as I slept. It was comforting as I tried to continue sleeping. I turned onto my back and heard some footsteps come into my room. When I felt someone sit on my bed, I knew it was Nik.
"I just wanted to help Becca." I said as I opened my eyes and looked at him.
"You're awake." He said as he brushed a strand of hair behind my ear.
"I didn't sleep much." I said as I gently grabbed his hand. "I think our daughter missed you." He gave me a small smile and then looked at my belly. "I know I did." I slowly sat up and kissed him. He looked at me with surprise in his eyes.
"How are you so calm?"
"I'm not exactly calm Nik." I said. "I'm just taking what I've learned from my last relationship. my brother's, and the things I've picked up from movies. Plus I know my mom's watching and she wouldn't want me mad that you just want to protect us." I slowly moved the hand I was holding to my belly. "We're a family." I could tell that he was holding back tears, so I scooted closer to him and kissed him. "It's new to me to."
"I love you." He said, which made me smile.
"I love you to Nik." I said before we both heard the front door open.

We both sped downstairs to see Rebecca standing in the house. I looked at her with worry because of the expression on her face.
"You were right." She said to Nik. "The girl, Cami... she's the key. Marcel likes her, and because of that I got to see the secret weapon of his that you've been going on about."
"What is it?" I asked before Nik got the chance.
"It's not a 'what', it's a 'who'. A girl, Davina." Rebecca said to me as she looked between me and Nik. "She can't be more than sixteen, and I have never felt power like that."
"A witch." Nik and I said as we looked at each other.
"She's not just any witch, she's something I've never seen before, something beyond powerful, possible more powerful than Chelsea," Rebecca glanced at me and I started to worry again ", and now because of you she has Elijah. Who knows what she could do to him."
"Where is she?" Nik asked. Rebecca opened her mouth to answer, but closed it with confusion on her face.
"That clever bitch. I don't know."
"What's wrong?"
"Her memory was wiped." I said, knowing that witches were capable of erasing memories.
"Marcel possesses a weapon bigger and more powerful than an Original, and you handed our brother to him!" Rebecca said with anger to Nik. "How many times will Elijah forgive you? How long until his hope for your redemption finally dies?"
"I did what I had to do! Marcel took our home!"
"And our home is worthless without family." Rebecca glanced at me again, knowing that I was part of the family. "I am finding Elijah, whatever it takes. Are you going to help me?"
"Whatever it takes." Nik said, agreeing with Rebecca. I nodded my head and slipped my hand into Nik's. He looked at me as I slipped my other hand into Rebecca's.
"Whatever it takes." I said, agreeing with the both of them.

~ I've been thinking of how I have to change certain parts to fit Chelsea so it will still work with the events of the show. (since she's not a wolf like Hayley).

~ I'm thinking about bringing Chelsea's very first boyfriend into the story as someone that's possibly in Marcel's circle. He's only been mentioned in previous seasons with Chelsea because I never thought about adding him. I thought that it might be a good way to add some drama in New Orleans.

~ I also want to have at least one chapter that has events from TVD season 5 (because of what happened in the 4th episode of TVD season 5.) Hopefully I'll have Chelsea's brother Dylan in that chapter as well.

~ I have a birthday chapter for Chelsea (that happens between the end of season 4 and this chapter) but I'm going to wait until the winter Hiatus to add it to this story. Some of the things in this story will be referencing that, so don't worry about being a little confused... hopefully it'll all be cleared when I post the birthday chapter (or chapters, depending on a few things)
~ I'm thinking of things that I'll reference later in the story, mainly TV shows, Movies, and other things that Chelsea (or any of the others) will/might like. If there are any things that you would like to reference, don't be afraid to share (:

~ I do have other stories, but hopefully I'll still be able to update this once a week (after each new episode of The Originals). It all depends on the number of helpful reviews and how much I focus on my other stories.

~ I also just got a job, even though I'll only have it for two months. I don't know when I'll be able to update this next, but hopefully within the next two weeks. My plan is to have this caught up with the show before the first big hiatus is over.

R&R 'till the next update
