"Welcome to New Orléans the birthplace of jazz music and the home to the Original Family."

After a very long drive Klaus and Caroline finally made it to the city of New Orléans, "So this is the ever so amazing city you've always wanted me to see."

Caroline had to admit New Orléans was a beautiful place, but something felt off about this town as if something life changing was about to happen. Brushing the feeling away, Caroline and Klaus continued to walk father into town. She just wanted to enjoy her time away from the drama of Mystic Falls.

"So tell me how does the all mighty Klaus Mikealson spend his friday nights in New Orléans?"

A smirk grew across Klaus' face, "Well sweetheart there is this one place I would love to show you, but before that we need to make a few stop."

We walked up to what seemed like an old, rundown church in the middle of the town. I guess the saying is right "looks can be deceiving" because the inside of the church was beautiful. The stain glass window's were covered in beautiful mosaics, "Klaus what are we doing in a church?"

Klaus didn't even have enough time to answer the question because as they both rounded the corner a tall man standing behind the altar came into view. Standing next to him was a much younger girl with blonde hair that doesn't look much different from Caroline's.

Klaus finally spoke startling the pair, "Father Kieran Sorry to interrupt this little family confrontation but we have a few things to discuss."

Angrily the blonde girl steps away from the podium and storms in to Klaus, "Wow your pretty brave for showing your face here, and I see your still getting excited from tormenting innocent people," the girl eyes Caroline up and down.

Klaus just laughs but Caroline is a little offended by the attitude this girl was giving off.

"Um excuse me who are you?"

"I'm the girl Klaus has compelled to forget her life for the pass three months."

This is not how Caroline planned to spend her time in away from Mystic falls. She came here to get away from the drama not to be sucked into more like a vacuüm cleaner.

Scoffing, Caroline turns around and begins to head out of the church only to be stopped in her tracks, "Klaus I did not come here to deal with the drama you created for yourself."

"Sweetheart just liste-."

"No Klaus I'm not going to listen. I don't want to deal with this, so when you learn how to stop being a dick to everyone you meet then you can come and find me. For now just leave me alone."

Caroline walked around Klaus not once looking back to see if he had followed her.

When she finally made it outside she took a deep breath taking in air around her. Klaus was right about about one thing, New Orleans is a beautiful city. Night had fallen and the streets of the Quarter where lit up with bright lights. Weirdly this town made Caroline feel, as if she was a small girl lost in a big city. She walked along the sidewalk taking in the music playing in the Quarter. It was all soothing but in the back of her head Caroline felt like someone was following her. The first person that came to her mind was Klaus but knowing he had to talk to the priest it couldn't have been him.

Stopping dead in her tracks Caroline swiftly turned around, her hair blowing in the wind, and was brought face to face with... no one.

Taking a deep breath Caroline turned around and continued walking even though the feeling of being followed never left. Little did she know someone was behind observing her every move.


"Can you please just make it all go away..."

Gently Elijah pulled Hayley into a hug, "Hayley me compelling you to forget about the kidnapping is not going to help you in your healing process."

Tears begin rolling down her face and she buries her face into Elijah's chest. Crying softly as he whispers soothing word into her hair, "Hayley I love you with all my heart and I am going to help figure out what is wrong with the child," he lifts her head and gently kisses her forehead, "Now go get ready we have meeting with a witch I-."

"Really Elijah, another witch?"

Elijah smiles because he remembered what happened the last time Hayley encountered a witch, "Don't worry I've known this women for a long time... well since we've come back to New Orleans."

The pair shared a laugh and then went inside to get ready for the meeting with an old witch. Hayley's nerves were getting the best of her, but not from having to meet and old witch, from learning the fate of the baby inside of her.

Hayley and Elijah both made there way to the SUV parked outside and when they made it to the car Hayley hesitated to get in, "Is everything okay?"

For a second Hayley just stood there thinking of all of the worst possible outcomes that could occur after the meeting. She was brought back to reality when a hand was softly placed upon her shoulder. Turning around she was brought face to face with Elijah, so close she could his breath brush across her lips, "I'll be right there by your side."

Hayley nods and the both pull away from each other and climb into the truck. After about ten minutes night had fallen and the arrived at an old cottage deep in the bayou.

"This place gives me the creeps and why are we in the bayou." Elijah led Hayley to a door in the back of the cottage. After a few knocks the door swung open to reveal a little old woman.

She spoke in a language Hayley couldn't understand, "Alors, c'est le loup?" Eyeing Hayley up and down the woman gave a disapproving look that made Hayley feel a little self-conscious.

"Suivez-moi et rester à proximité."

Elijah was the first one to react which gave Hayley the impression that he could understand what the women was saying. Hayley followed close behind Elijah as they entered to small cottage. It looked exactly like the outside old and warn down with a minimal amount of furniture.

And the deeper they walked into the house the more Hayley was put on edge.

The women led them into the kitchen and started giving direction, "Parier sur la table pendant que je collectionne quelques herbes."Listening to this women talk is as hard as learning how to read, "Elijah what did she say?"

The women exited the kitchen as Elijah began to speak, "She said to lay down on the table while she goes to collect herbs for the ritual."

Hesitantly Hayley made her way over to the table in the middle of the kitchen. Quickly she slipped her shaky hand into Elijah's, he rubbed the back of her hand lightly in reasurance that he wasn't going anywhere. She looked directly into his eyes and a smile appeared across her face.

It was all short lived when the women returned carying a knife in her right hand, "Je vais avoir besoin d'un peu de son sang."

Slowly slicing the flesh on Hayley's hand blood started to drip into a bowl filled with herbs and as the blood stooped the women spoke again, "Bon maintenant la tenir fermement à la table. Cela va faire mal."

Elijah layed Hayley flat on the table and the women began spreading the mixture upon Hayley's body. When finished Elijah grip tightened around Hayley's shoulders and the women began chanting in a non-understandable language.

A sharp pain shot up from Hayley's feet into her stomach making her yelp in agony. The was excruciating as f someone was jamming knives directly into her stomach. Droplets of sweat rolled off Hayley's brow as she began moving around uncomfortably on the table.

"Tenir son encore!"

Elijah's tight grip increased causing Hayley to let out a piercing scream. The women's eyes rolled in the back of her head as she continued to chant. After what seemed like and eternity the chanting stopped and the women returned to what she considered normal.

Staring in the direction of Elijah the women finally spoke, "Grossesse accélère ... Le gène de loup non déclenché ... doit tuer pour devenir un loup."

The pain had finally wiped away from Hayley's body and her breathing return to normal. As the women left the room she immediately started questioning Elijah about everything the women had said. They had finally got there and answers but he just didn't know how to tell Hayley what he just heard...
