The Impossibility

Chapter 4

I told you guys I would be back with some more Hayley and Elijah fiction and here I am! I really hope you enjoy this! This is a storyline I have been messing around with for ages. I'm not sure how long it will be, 3 chapters maybe? Please read and review to let me know what you thought! Happy reading!

Can I just go on record to say that in this fiction season four never happened? Purely because I hate it. I hated the way that Elijah as a character was portrayed. I hated the fact that they showed him as an antagonist, the writers did an incredibly poor job this season. It is for this reason that I am ditching season five, I would rather read fiction written by fans, it is probably written better than what the writers write. Secondly, after the halfway point there was no Hayley and Elijah whatsoever. The writers just completely cut off one of the major relationships on the show. They killed off the Klaus and Cami relationship which I loved, sorry not a shipper of Klaus and Caroline, I am a hardcore Steroline shipper. Thirdly, I hated that there were zero scenes between Elijah and Hope. I think everyone forgets that Elijah was the only one that fought for Hope and her existence back in season one when all Klaus cared about was taking back New Orleans from Marcel. And finally, because I could go on for days about what I hated, was the way that they did the finale. Marcel compelling an original, are they serious? The end of always and forever. It doesn't matter how many times I watch it, I still cry. It gets to that final scene where they are playing 'Grace' by Rag 'n' Bone Man and Klaus leaves money for Elijah when he's playing and I'm in tears.

I could complain for days about what I hated about the originals last season, why don't you let me know what you guys thought in the comments?

DISCLAIMER – I DO NOT OWN THE ORIGINALS OR ANY OTHER FRANCHISES MENTIONED IN THIS FICTION

That afternoon, like she had first predicted, Elizabeth and Hope both got into trouble for delving into the family liquor supply. Klaus was eager to ground both girls, but after he spoke to Elijah, he realized that the hangover that both girls were suffering was punishment enough.

Much to the chagrin of her uncle Klaus, who thought that there were too many clothes in the house already, Elizabeth was going shopping with her aunt Bekah later that afternoon. The afternoon was going swimmingly, Elizabeth and Rebekah were just about to leave when the front door burst open and Marcel walked in.

"Marcel, what are you doing here?" Bekah asked, sounding slightly perplexed.

"She's awake, and she got out somehow." Elizabeth furrowed her eyebrows, moving to her mom's side when she walked into the room. The rest of the family soon followed and came down to the courtyard, probably hearing the alarm in Marcel's voice.

"Who?" Elizabeth asked, although she asked so quietly she was sure only her mother heard her.

"Aurora." Marcel spoke only one word, but it was clear that Aurora was a person that was disliked.

Elizabeth, who's hand was being held by her mother, felt Hayley take a step back. She was obviously taken aback by the news.

"How is she out?" Elijah spoke slowly, it was clear that he was not expecting the news.

"There is no way she got out of there alone, she was under a sleeping curse. She would have needed help." Elizabeth looked at her aunt Freya as she spoke.

"She's out for revenge. We took her out and now she's coming for revenge." Klaus spoke, his anger evident.

"Can someone please tell me what the hell is going on? Who is Aurora? And why the hell does she want revenge?" Elizabeth asked, she obviously had no idea what was going on.

Elizabeth's father came to stand at hers and her mother's side to explain the situation.

"Years ago, there was an antagonist of sorts that wanted revenge on us. There was Aurora, and her brother Tristan. Aurora wants revenge on us because she we locked her away for ten years and we sunk her brother to the bottom of the ocean. So once again, we're about to fight a war about family."

"What if she hurts you guys, I only just found you?" Elizabeth's eyes watered as she spoke, looking between her mother and father. She couldn't lose them so soon after finding them.

"She won't, not again, I promise." Elijah smiled softly and pulled Elizabeth into his embrace. The Mikaelson family had, had enough heartbreak over the years, this was a battle that none of them wanted to fight.

…

It had been two days since Marcel had burst into the compound to share that Aurora had indeed gone missing. Elizabeth was distraught, she hated the fact that her family were in danger once again, she couldn't understand why the Mikaelson's couldn't seem to get a grasp on happiness. It didn't help matters that her father as well as her uncle Klaus and uncle Kol had ran headlong into the battle, aiding in the search for Aurora as soon as they had heard the news. Her mother had reassured her that they would come back fine, but Elizabeth knew better. Although she had only been with her family for a short amount of time, something was crystal clear to her. The Mikaelson's were a family that were feared. Elizabeth understood her family had been through a lot, and that they got themselves involved with issues that were unnecessary, but they were her family and there was no way she could go back to living without them now that she had found them. Elizabeth had heard the stories of the battles that they had faced, she had heard everything from being chased by Mikael to her uncle Klaus seeking out the doppelganger to break his curse that prohibited him from being a hybrid.

But now that she was here, in New Orleans with her family, and Lizzie knew that it was only a matter of time before something came through the door to shatter it, and she was right. As soon as she had heard what Marcel had said, her heart had sunk. She hadn't known who Aurora was, but she could tell that she was to be feared because of the way her mother had reacted.

"What did she do that was so bad? What did she do to you guys?" Elizabeth had asked her mom and dad that evening as they all sat together in her father's study.

"She and her brother had a device called a Serratura. They wanted to use it to protect themselves. Once a vampire is trapped somewhere with a Serratura, it is impossible for them to leave. They wanted to lock your dad and his siblings away so that they could protect themselves. When Aurora and her brother Tristan first came to New Orleans, the sire lines were at war. So, if an original vampire like your dad was killed, the rest of his sireline would be killed." Her mother explained, "When someone got their hands on the last white oak bullet, she was keen to get it from them and she did. She took your aunt Freya, sending your dad and uncle Klaus on a wild goose chase to find her. We nearly caught her, but she…" Hayley trailed off, ducking her head. Elizabeth's eyebrows furrowed when her dad took her mother's hand, holding it tightly in his own.

"What happened? Did she hurt someone?"

"She nearly killed your dad. If Klaus hadn't stayed behind he would be dead." Her mom explained.

"Oh, mom." Elizabeth sighed, reaching for her mother's free hand.

"It's okay, baby. We will sort this out and we will win, just like we did last time." Hayley smiled a watery smile.

"We won't be able to win anything if we don't figure out who her accomplice is. This is going to be someone totally new, someone we probably haven't met before. Her old accomplices are gone, Lucien is dead and Tristan is rotting at the bottom of the ocean." Freya spoke with tension in her voice as she walked into the study, followed by her brother, Kol.

"What incentive would she offer someone to aid her escape? She hasn't had any communication with the outside world whatsoever since she was put under the sleeping curse nearly fifteen years ago." Klaus interjected into the conversation as he walked into the room, Elizabeth guessed that he had heard the discussion and decided to join.

"So, what's our next move?" Hayley asked, instinctively shifting closer to Elizabeth on the couch.

…

It had been five days since the Mikaelson's discovered that Aurora was on the loose. Everyone was on edge within the Mikaelson home. Her father had put his foot down, telling Elizabeth that she was not allowed to leave the compound until the issue had been resolved. So, Elizabeth and Hope spent their days in the Mikaelson compound, waiting for the family's newest threat to be vanquished.

Elizabeth had been sitting in the courtyard of the Mikaelson compound that afternoon when the front door burst open and her father hurried in, holding an unconscious Hayley in his arms. Elizabeth leapt up from the chair she was sitting in and rushed to her parent's side.

"What the hell happened? Is mom okay?" Elizabeth looked up at her father desperately. It was only now she saw the state he was in. His face was dirty and caked in blood, and his usually pristine suit was torn badly.

"It was an ambush. We were under the impression that Aurora had the help of one person, but we were wrong." Elijah looked down at his unconscious wife, who still lay in his arms.

"When your father spoke to the Strix, they had locked onto a location where Aurora may be hiding. When we went in there must have been three dozen vampires waiting to ambush us." Klaus spoke when he appeared at Lizzie's side. He was in the same state as her father, filthy and bloody.

Everyone looked down at Hayley when she shifted in Elijah's arms, her eyes opening slowly.

"I am going to kill that bitch." She said, her voice laced with anger.

"What? Little old me?" Everyone froze and turned towards the door. Sure enough, there she was. The red headed woman that had hurt her mother. Elizabeth's eyes flashed with anger as they turned gold, her werewolf instincts coming to the surface to protect herself and her family.

Aurora took one look at Elizabeth and realised who she was, Elizabeth was sure of it. Another thing she was sure of was that the next Mikaelson battle had begun.

It's a bad ending I know, but the next chapter will be the last. I have loved writing this, it has been a pleasure.

Lots of love,
