House of Night, Mystic Falls.
"Niklaus, you don't want to provoke these Vampyres, they may have the means to destroy a whole line, so do be pleasant." Elijah said to his brother.
Klaus saw Caroline before he could say anything back to his brother. He missed her, he saw the bright, beautiful smile that he loved so much. But why was she here? He thought.
"Caroline."
She turned around to come face to face with her former flame.
"Klaus." She said. "What the hell are you doing here?!"
"I assume you're here to learn about the House of Night?" Elena said.
"Yes, Ms. Gilbert. That's right." Elijah responded.
"I guess Katherine hasn't said anything." Elena said to Caroline.
"Oh, she has said enough, but my dear brother here made her a little angry, so she refuses to speak about anything we don't already know. Katerina is a piece of work." Klaus smirked at his brother.
Elena noticed Elijah's discomfort. "So, how are you, Elijah? Have you heard anything about them at all?"
"We know the basics, so everything that Katerina has learned over the years, but that is all." He responded.
Just then, Zoey, Stark, Aphrodite and Darius walked out to greet the Mikaelsons.
"Merry meet, Klaus and Elijah Mikaelson. I am honored to meet you. I am Zoey Redbird, the High Priestess of this House of Night, and a member of the North American Vampyre High Council." Zoey said.
"Nice to meet you as well, Ms. Redbird. I am Elijah, and this is my brother Niklaus. But I do believe you've already heard of us." He says suspiciously.
"Yes, I've briefly learned about you in some of our forbidden books. As a High Priestess, I need to know this stuff-"
"And as the sire of a line, I need to know what it is that you want to do with co-existing with us vampires." Klaus interrupted. "We've been separated from each other for many years, never had a House of Night where many vampires from our sire lines existed, what is your intention?" He tried compelling her.
"I am not a vampire from your sire line and I also am not human, so you wouldn't be able to compel me. You can always just ask. The Original High Council and the North American High Council are not associated. We respect their rules, and the members, but they do not interfere in our work. We just want our kind to learn about yours. The more they know, the better. I believe this could finally be peace between us." Zoey said with her head high. She was nervous, but she didn't let it show.
"Very well, but-" Klaus was interrupted by Elijah.
"What my brother means, is that we have nothing to worry about here." Elijah looked at Klaus. "Thank you for your time."
Klaus and Elijah walked away. Caroline couldn't stop looking at him. She missed him, and she felt she didn't need to be mad. She rejected him after all. She couldn't have expected him to stay forever and wait. He was Klaus Mikaelson after all.
"Care, are you ready?" Elena asked.
"Yes, thanks for today Zoey. We had fun teaching." Caroline said.
"Yeah, we will see you tomorrow." Zoey smiled at the girls.
Once they were far enough away. Aphrodite asked, "are the Mikaelsons really a threat?"
Zoey looked at her. "We need to stay on guard. The Mikaelsons are older, they are stronger and more brutal. Elena and her friends seem to be trustworthy but-"
"But not that Katherine chick." Aphrodite said.
"Yeah, I mean Elena, Caroline, Damon, and Stefan seem okay. But Katherine is something else. She's dangerous as well." Stark said.
"Agreed." Darius said. "She was quick enough to reflect Stark's arrows, and he never misses."
"So, I guess we have to look out for Katherine Pierce and the Mikaelsons." Zoey trailed off. "We should call a meeting as well, can you get everyone, Stark?"
"Yes. I will grab everyone. Where are we meeting?"
"In my office." Zoey said. "Let's go."
High Priestess Office, House of Night, Mystic Falls
"Are you planning on telling everyone about my vision?" Aphrodite asked.
"Yes, they need to know." Zoey responded.
"Are you going to eventually tell the Mikaelsons?" Aphrodite asked.
"I should. It would be a good way to start an alliance with them, especially since they are a part of it." Zoey said. Once she was done the crew walked in.
"Hey Z!" Stevie Rae said.
"Shaunee, Shaylin! You guys are back from the tour." Zoey looked at Shaunee Cole and Shayline Ruede. "Hey Kramisha!"
"Hey Z!" They all said together.
"What's up with the meeting?" Damien asked.
Zoey looked at Aphrodite, and she returned the look.
"Yeah, what's going on?" Stevie Rae asked, she was worried.
"Aphrodite had a vision. It was the death of my circle." Zoey said. She couldn't meet any of their eyes.
"What? How? Is it by those rogue vampires?" Shaunee asked.
"No, Shaunee. It was by Neferet." Aphrodite said.
"That can't be, she's gone." Stevie Rae said.
"Someway, somehow she gets out. I'm not even sure what the cause of your death was. It was exactly like when Cordelia poisoned the Mikaelson vampires, you guys just dropped." Aphrodite said. "The Mikaelsons also fall with you. They don't die, but they become trapped, their family falls. Whatever it is, we have to make sure you guys are alright, and we have to let the Mikaelsons know, one way or another." She turned to Zoey and continued. "After you left, a few more things started to become clear, and this vision will happen if we don't make the alliance with the Mikaelsons."
"I guess we will need to convince them, someway and soon.. The Mikaelsons returning to Mystic Falls just proves that this vision will come true sooner rather than later." Zoey said.
Is it better to have Neferet return now? Or later? I was thinking of adding the Trinity (Lucien, Aurora and Tristan) to this story.
