This takes place after Elijah left and before Alaric's death.
I felt the need to write this before uploading anything else. It's still a bit of a mystery but I wanted to tie Aviaya to the Originals straight away before writing more about her. :-) happy reading.
Denver, Colorado.
Elijah went to a forest; knowingly that Kol was spending time around here. He walked towards a forest lake. He stood there in silence for a few minutes.
"Kol?" Elijah called out and hoped he was near. Elijah wasn't sure why he was searching out Kol. He knew that Kol was everything Elijah wanted to forget about himself, a reminder of his viciousness and his darkest place. He was tired, so tired of being righteous while hiding his darkest secrets.
"Brother, what brings you here?" a voice said quietly. Elijah looked up and saw his youngest brothers face with his signature grin. "We need to talk," Elijah said slowly and looked into Kol's eyes. Kol tilted his head and looked at his brother: "Well, go on," Kol snapped. Elijah squad down and folded his hands.
"There is something I have not told you, something I have been hiding for you for centuries," Elijah stopped talking when he saw his brother losing patience. Kol was about to open his mouth when Elijah interrupted him: "She's alive, Kol"
Elijah started impatiently at Kol while waiting for a response. Kol's grin faded and stared at his brother. His grin was changed into a emotionless expression.
"What do you mean she's alive?" he yelled at his brother and continued: "I've spend 950 years thinking she was dead! How could you not tell me? How?"
Elijah stood up and put his hands on Kol's shoulders and looked into his eyes and sighed with relief. It was finally out and there was no going back from here; they would be reunited and he feared what could come out of that.
"I had no right to hide it from you, I am sorry," Elijah said in a calm tone that always made Kol's wrath fade. "I had not seen her for three centuries before she suddenly appeared in Mystic Falls. Days after you left," Elijah let go of his brother and took a few steps back. Kol stood expressionless and had his eyes following Elijah's every move. "I cannot tell you why I did not tell you sooner, I have no reason," Elijah tried to analyze every move and expression Kol took. Elijah knew that Kol is acting on impulse and that he currently was a ticking bomb. Kol smirked at his brother and walked around him. He shook his head in confusion and laughed with insecurity: "Have she been avoiding me? How could she not find me? She knows that Niklaus' dagger was the only thing that could stop me," Kol turned around and watched the silence of the lake. He shook his head over and over. It was obvious that he didn't understand a thing. Elijah walked towards Kol and watched the lake with him.
"She has been searching for you for most of her life. She's been harassing Niklaus for centuries for daggering you the first time," Elijah laughed quietly before he continued: "I do not know what Niklaus told her but suddenly she stopped showing up. The last time she appeared was right after Niklaus daggered you in the early 1900's,"
"Aviaya," Kol whispered. "I have not said her name out loud for centuries," he sighed and looked at Elijah with wet eyes. "Tell me everything you know," he begged. They talked back and forth for hours. Elijah told him stories about Aviaya. Kol enjoyed talking about her and hearing about her. He especially enjoyed hearing about her harassing Niklaus.
"I will find her," Kol said firmly.
I'm already on to the next chapter. Which will begin the story instead of this jumping around;-)
