It was the night of a full moon and she knew this was her time, only chance, to get to her before he did. She stalked the bayou for hours and hours that waiting to get a glance of an emerging wolf. She would take any wolf at this moment, but she needed her. She needed their Queen.

Hayley change from wolf to human was either getting less painful or beginning to become a normalcy if her new life. A life filled with loneliness and a overall hopelessness. That life was also one without her daughter. The one thing that matter to her most. She was missing her whole life and was because of him. If she was just was able to get her hands on Klaus for a few minutes…..She sighed heavily. There was no point in wishful thinking. Elijah and even Freya tried desperately to find a way to end the curse, but there nothing. So, this was her new life. A echo of former life, as well as her more richer one, now replaced with a grimmer desolated one. Where her glimmer of hope had faded months ago. "For a queen you do surely give up quite easily." Hayley turned immediately, crouching instinctively with a low deep throated growl. The girl was her height, lean, black, and exotically beautiful. "Who are you? And what do you?" Hayley said, not breaking stance. If she tried something Hayley was prepared to ripped her throat and feed. She was incredibly ravenous and dying for just a taste. This would be easy. "Calm down, Hayley." I'm not here to hurt you. Actually… It's the complete opposite. I'm here to grant you your wish. I here to reunite you with your daughter, permanently." Hayley scoffed at. There was no way she was telling the truth. This could be a setup to kill her, ordered by Klaus. Hayley had enough and lunged. When a searing pain shot through her immobilizing her instantly. She screamed out in pain holding her head. The pain was far worse than the change. It felt as if her scalp was on fire and being stabbed repeatedly by tiny daggers. Hayley started pulling at her hair. Grabbing handfuls out with one pull. Then as quickly as it came it was gone. "Ready to talk like civilized people or do you want to keep up this feral act? Do you even know the difference anymore?" She asked, with more sincerity than she intended. Hayley took note of that and stood. She was stark naked, but somehow comfortable with this. She was always like this. The difference is she had fur the conceal what most would consider to be indecent, but Hayley liked it this way. There was nothing to hide, as well as nothing to fear. Which made her adversary weaker and more easier to take down.

The girl dug in the satchel she was carrying over her shoulder. Taking out a some clothes she tossed them at Hayley. "Get dressed and we'll talk. Hayley didn't know what to think her, but she knew one thing for sure. She wanted something. No one ever did anything out the kindness of their hearts. A hard lesson she learned time and time again.

"Are you going to just sit there all day? Get off your ass and help me get this house and order before your father returns. Hayley! Are you even listening to me?!" Her mother smacked her upside the head. She slowly removed the headphones and looked up. "You say something, Martha?" Hayley said monotonously. Her mother walked back and forth tidying up these. Getting it in order for her father's grand return from work. Like he didn't come home everyday at the exact same time. It was a cute little act they put on. He would come home exhausted and then be instantly cheered up by good cooked meal and a clean house. It was annoying, but sweet at the same time. "Didn't I tell you I hated when you called me that? Hayley?! Are you not listening?"

Back To The Present Day

"That's all I have to do?" Hayley asked, as she licked her bloody fingers and finishing up the blood bag, Cora gave to her. Cora smiled, and said, "Yes. Then I'll give you what you want. Deal?" Hayley studied her for a second. She skeptical of the whole thing, but she would be getting what she desired the most. Her pack would be able to go home after months away from their families. She would be able to reunite with Hope and get revenge on that bastard Klaus. Without hesitation Hayley replied, "I'm in."

Elijah had grew worrisome when dawn had started to arrive Hayley hadn't shown up to meet with him and Hope. He looked tirelessly throughout the woods for her and her pack, but sign of them ever being there was to be found. Hope had drifted off to sleep hours ago. He couldn't look anymore, so he headed back home. After laying Hope down in her crib, Elijah swiftly went to Klaus' room. "Where's Hayley? What have you done with her? Her pack?" Elijah said with such disdain in his voice Klaus could feel it. Klaus sat on his chair thumbing through a old war book. "I have no clue as to what you're speaking of. Isn't your precious child thieving girlfriend off prancing in the woods at this hour? Oops. I meant friend." Klaus said smirking. He was truly confused at what Elijah was talking. "She missed her one opportunity to see her child, which would only mean two things Elijah said, as he gather his thoughts. "What? I don't like being held in suspense. I'm sure she fine. Maybe Jackson got an owie and needed extra attention. You know how useless he is." Klaus quipped. Elijah sat down in shock at what his next words were going to be. "Something or someone stopped her from coming or…." He could bare the thought of existing in a world Hayley was no longer a part of. So he didn't even bother saying that last part. Klaus was angered by his brother's silence. It made him impatient and the grim sudden silence unbearable. "Or what? Finish your sentence, brother?" Klaus demanded. Elijah didn't bother giving his younger brother anymore of his time. He had to find Hayley. "I'm going to get Freya to do a locator spell." With that he was gone. Klaus could clearly hear asking Freya, who was just a few doors down, for her help and her gladly accepting. Klaus couldn't take this any longer. Hayley was playing games. This was all foolish nonsense. She couldn't possibly be de…..the sheer though shocked him to his core. He disliked her for what she concocted with his siblings and pack of dogs. To run with his child, taking her away from him and her home, was unfathomable, but….but he didn't hate her. Nor did he ever wish for her demise. She was too important to...Hope. As much as he hated to think about it he knew Hope missed her mother. She needed her and he would do anything for his child. In that instant Klaus was decided what he had to do. He had to find Hayley. Find her and bring her home to their daughter.

Cora loved the new apartment building she just purchased. It was a good fit for her and her family, plus the new additions. They would like it. The view was impeccable, right across the way from Niklaus Mikaelson.

Marcel was Klaus first visit. "You heard of anything going down in the bayou?" Klaus cut straight to it. He wanted to get answers and wanted them now. He didn't have time for any games. "The bayou? Would this be the same bayou where a very pissed off wolf clan roams? Who is also lead by a very very angry Hayley, who so happens to be the mother of you child? That bayou?" Marcel said, skirting around giving a clear statement, which infuriated Klaus. Moving like the speed of a bullet Klaus grabbed Marcel by his throat, slamming him so hard against the wall pieces of brick broke off and fell onto the floor. "I don't have time for you childish antics. So you either tell me what you know or I'll just break your neck and be on my way. My next visit being the lovely Davina." Klaus said smiling. Marcel could see he wasn't in the mood for this so he sighed. "Alright. I heard whispers of a new witch in town. One that's been stalking the bayou each full moon. I didn't think anything of til now." Marcel admitted, as he strained to move under the tight grasp of Klaus. "Are you going to let me go now? That's all I know." Klaus squeezed a bit tighter before dropping him on the ground. Marcel stood and straighten out his clothes. "Well that was helpful. Maybe I won't have to pay our little friend Davina a visit after all." Klaus said, beginning to walk out. Then he stopped. "Then again…" In one swift moment he turned back to Marcel and with one precise movement snapped his neck. "Next time I can do without the unnecessary bullshit." His eyes gleamed at the sight of his once friend lying immobilized on the floor. Then he was gone.

Hayley was growing restless. She was ready to go to Hope. Her feet was burning into floor as she paces back and forth in the woods. A day had passed and she was still human. So she was thankful for that, but her newfound appreciation for Core was diminishing as the minutes passed. "Hayley, calm down. She'll be here any moment." Jackson said from his spot next to a tree. He could sense the tension from her and did his best to give her, her space. She wanted to see Hope, he understood that, but he was a bit hurt she wasn't more excited to see him in the flesh for longer than a night. He pushed the selfish feeling to away and just let the feeling of being human and alive feel him with joy. "How do you know this? You've only know her for a few hours. She could be playing us. This spell she's about to do could be for other purposes. We don't know." Hayley snapped, letting her anger get the best of her. Jackson, sadly was just her latest casualty in her onslaught of heightened emotions. She of course felt bad, but not that much. She just wasn't ed to see Hope. She had no time for the little pick me up speeches. "So little faith in me Hayley?" Cora said, as she came from around a large old tree. They were on the outskirts of Louisiana. Just near Mississippi, straddling both states. Cora walked up with about thirty, maybe forty, people behind her. Hayley of course became defensive at the sight of so many glowing eyes. Wolves. They were all wolves. "What the fuck is this?" Hayley growled. Cora smiled at Hayley and her pack's shock. "Calm down. There's nothing to fear. I told you, you would be joint me in my fight. I just left you would be joining my pack. Made of wolves and witches. So let's start the spell, shall we?" Cora said, moving in between both packs. Jackson jumped up. "Fuck no. This is crazy. Hayley? You can't be thinking about combining packs? Who would be the alpha? And what do you gain from this? Jackson said, riling up his side. Cora knew he would be a problem. Hayley married him for the protection of her child, which is admirable, but was completely stupid. She's weaker because of him. She can't think as a leader, cause he's always there me to be her insubordinate sidekick. "Why don't you shut the fuck up and let your alpha think for herself? You ready, Hayley?" Cora said, directing to the alpha. She had the power, but she was still so young. Hayley looked over to Jackson who was obviously against the idea and at her pack, who were giving her a bunch of mixed feelings on it. She looked back at Cora, who was now impatiently waiting for her response. She took a step away from Jackson and looked straight at Cora. "I'm ready." And with that Cora smiled and started the spell. Tonight would be a irreversible and unforgettable one for the books. The night one of the strongest packs on this earth was created and who knew Cora just had to wait a hundred years for it to happen.

Klaus was becoming enraged at the little to none information he had gather. Talks of a old witch coming to town was all he could find out from witches to vampires. The wolves were less than helpful. A few deaths of their kind was enough for one to spill they heard that the witch had been in search of one of them. The one that went by the hybrid Queen. That sent Klaus in a bit of spiral. What did she want with Hayley? If not to slaughter the lot of them. Klaus's fear of Hayley's imminent demise was growing. He couldn't find her and that concerned him greatly. Just as he was going on another questioning mission to sweet, but sadly preconceived Davina Clare the sky was ablaze with a sharp dark scarlet hue. Even the moon was casted with this murky tinge. It was the color of…..blood, and in that instant the earth shook and blood rained down from the sky. It was as if the sky weeped a thousand years of sorrow and torment. Something Klaus had never once seen in the hundred of centuries he walked this earth. He was truly astounded. "Hayley?" He whispered to himself and he was off as blood fell to the earth bathing him and everything else in the beautiful rich liquid.
