Lorenzo Augustine ran Rome, it was his territory. No one dared mess with him as had a reputation for being pure evil. He's been known to use the rack straight out of the inquisition, a coffin of nails, removing fingernails one by one and his old favourite, as well as the head crusher. Enzo was medieval in his methods. He loved using the old classics and hated using modern torturing devices because he described them as 'boring'. He had an American wife called April who he repeatedly cheated on and he had a 10 year old son called Leonardo who he actually loved.
When he heard that his precious 'territory' had been violated by Klaus Mikaelson who was an old foe. Enzo felt angry and revengeful so he ordered an attack on his premises. When he discovered that they'd escaped him, his anger turned to rage as he'd been wanted to use to rack on Klaus. Enzo was now determined to find Klaus.
…
Back in America Meredith was about to go on trial and was chatting with her lawyer. A man called Mr Barnes who was highly recommended. Kol had paid for his lover's legal fees as well as his own. Bonnie was due to be called up for the trial so she was in the court room sitting next to Finn. The case of the pregnant criminal had attracted a lot of media attention. A lot of people sympathized with her because of her condition. That she's only committed the crimes for love and devotion for the father of her child. Other journalists had been much less sympathetic and painted her as a whore who deserved to be put away for a long time.
Meredith was now four months pregnant and looked tired when she came into the court room. She was dressed in smart clothes but her face looked lifeless. The thought of losing her baby filled her with dread. She wanted to be its mother and look after it, take it on its first day of school. Play with her child and watch it grow up. It broke her heart to know that she'll never get to do any of those things. When Bonnie had been called up to testify she went straight to the stand and took the usual oath. First, Meredith was questioned by the prosecution who looked like a stern, no nonsense kind of lady.
"You are Agent Bonnie Bennett of the FBI?" she began.
"Yes" Bonnie nodded.
"You investigated Meredith Fell's involvement in Tatia Petrova's death"
"I did" Bonnie replied.
"Can you please tell the court what you found out" the prosecution demanded.
Bonnie took a deep breath and began.
"Fell was having an relationship with Kol before the Empire collapsed" Bonnie began, "We can confirm this through phone records, witnesses and the fact that a large amount of money was moved from Kol's account to hers on her birthday"
Meredith looked like was listening intently but she knewthere is no hope . She knew she'd never be able to keep the baby.
"Before Tatia Petrova died she gave a false tips to the FBI which caused a distraction, allowing Kol back into the country" Bonnie continued, "She said that she'd been threatened by a woman who, and I quote had: 'brown hair, white skin and good looking. She looked in her late twenties'. She also said that this woman was with Kol. Fell later bailed Tatia out of prison when she had no reason to and set fire to her house a day later. When she was arrested, she was with Kol and Rebekah Mikaelson in a safe house"
"Do you think Miss Fell bailed Tatia out so Kol could kill her?" she asked.
Meredith was looking at her with pleading eyes.
"Kol has admitted he killed her but he didn't mention Meredith but due to the evidence I think it's very likely" Bonnie answered honestly.
"The prosecution rests" she stated smugly as she sat down.
Mr Barnes got up to question Agent Bennett.
"What kind of woman is Miss Fell?" he began, "You've had the chance to observe her on many occasions. What do you think of her character? Of a woman who has had no previous convictions and is well liked"
Bonnie waited a few moments before answering.
"I think that to her core she is a kind woman" Bonnie told the court, "But we cannot blame Kol for her behaviour. She knew what she was doing was wrong and she did it anyway"
"But she was pregnant with the man's child and completely in love with him" the lawyer argued, "Have you even been in love?"
Bonnie was struck by that question. She opened her mouth to answer it but just shut it again.
"Then how can you judge this woman who on top of that also wanted to be with the father of her child?" he pressed.
"A crime is a crime and she still helped him commit it"
"But a crime of passion" he corrected, "Do you think that it was easy for her to commit this crime for man she loves? NO! It most certainly wasn't. She chose to leave her whole life behind for this man; she risked everything just for him. Do you not think she deserves a little courtesy for that kind of bravery?"
"She was selfish" Bennett replied calmly, "It is a grave crime to take someone's life and she took it for her own happiness"
"Says the woman who's never been in love" he said in a mocking tone.
Other character witnesses were brought fourth who were all saying that Meredith was a good woman. It was also admitted that she was hiding Kol in her apartment before it burnt. The jury watched with interest as the procedure took place. Finally it was time for the verdict. When the jury came back in, the court were eager to hear what they had to say.
"Do you find Meredith Jayne Fell guilty of accessory to murder of Tatia Petrova and harbouring the criminal, Kol Mikaelson as well as the arson of her own flat?" the judge asked.
"Guilty of all charges" one of them announced.
A loud gasp could be heard around the room.
"Meredith Fell" the judge began, "I am certain that you acted purely out of love and devotion to the man who got you pregnant. On the one hand this is admirable but not when it comes down to the taking of a life. You knew what you were doing when you assisted Kol Mikaelson in his plan to kill Tatia Petrova. It is therefore now my duty to announce your sentence. You will serve 10 years in the United States Penitentiary, Hazelton. Take her down"
...
"WHO DO YOU WORK FOR!" Marcel yelled as he pushed the bullet deeper into her wound.
Elena screamed out in pain but Marcel just continued. She was on the floor in some basement that she didn't recognise. Elena still couldn't believe that Caroline chose that monster over her! She was even willing to take the bullet for him. It was disgusting! Elena knew Caroline must be mad at her for lying but it didn't need to come down to that. And then she just left her with some gangster.
"TELL ME!" Marcel probed.
Elena just shook her head.
Marcel slapped her instead casuing her cheek to go red, raw.
"I'll never tell you" Elena chuckled as blood came out of her mouth.
Suddenly he got a call from Klaus.
"Is that the whore WHO LEFT ME TO DIE!" Elena shouted as Marcel connected.
"I hear that the prisoner is not coperating" Klaus drawled sarcastically.
Marcel snorted.
"Yeah, she's not saying anything" he sighed.
"CAROLINE HE'S TOUTURING ME! NOT LIKE YOU CARE!" Elena hissed.
Marcel left the basement so they wouldn't have any more interuptions.
"Enzo's back" Klaus said.
"Enzo!" Marcel gasped, "That phsyco"
"Me and Caroline have left Italy and gone west" Klaus informed him.
"Ok" he nodded, "What do you want me to do with Elena?"
"Kill her" Klaus stated like it was obvious.
When Marcel got back to the basement, Elena was no where to be seen. He swore loudly at his stupidity but another call interupted his thoughts. It was his 10 year old adopted daughter, Davina. In his anger he felt himself smile as he answered her call.
"Hello sweetie, what is it?" he asked.
"I can't find the bread" she told him, "Where is it?"
"Where's Camie? Your Nannie?" Marcel wondered.
"In the toilet" she answered, "So where is it?"
"It'll be in the cubboard near the sink"
He heard rustling from the other end as he waited for her to speak.
"Found it" she exclaimed.
"Don't worry, you'll get used to the new home soon" he promised, "How are you settiling in?"
"It's weird living in New York, it's so busy" she confessed, "When are you joining me?"
"Not for a mouth or so, I'm afraid but I'll be there" he vowed, "How's school?"
"Great, my art teacher loves me already" she beamed.
"I'll see you soon sweet heart"
...
Klaus and Caroline were in a small hotel in the south of France. It wasn't a third world hovel like the last few. It was remote and quiet which was just pefect for Klaus and Caroline. They'd been on the run for about a mouth now. Never in the same place for too long. Caroline hated being on the run but she loved being with him. On one a lazy afternoon they'd spent it on the sun deck. Soaking the french sun in they're skin which gave them a 'sun-kissed' look.
"Are you sick of being on the run?" Klaus asked her.
Caroline turned her head around to face him. Her blonde hair catching the sun; making it look like a halo.
"Yes" she nodded.
"There may be a way of staying here"
Caroline looked suprised.
"How?" she gasped.
"I've got a contact who can give me a new identity" Klaus explained, "If I go out in public with a diguise then none will recognise me"
"But we will be found sooner or later" Caroline pointed out.
"Caroline" he said with mock hurt, "I'm suprised you have so little faith in me"
...
Kol and Rebekah's trials were pretty much an open and shut case. They both got life and prison sentences on opposite sides of the country. Kol was in a high security, federal prison for men in San Francisco. Rebekah was in a high security, federal female prison in Philadelphia. Elijah had disappeared off the face of the earth and there was some reports of Klaus in Europe. Bonnie Bennett was in a coffee shop near her work sipping a moca. She knew she wasn't going to give up. She will have all the Mikaelson's in jail, even if it kills her. Above her the news was playing on an old tv behind the bar.
"Kol and Rebekah Mikaelson have been given life today as the man hunt for them is at an end. We still have no idea where Klaus and Elijah are as they are still at large"
Bonnie rolled her eyes in impatience. The fact that they'd gained two and lost two was something the press had contantly reminded them. Suddenly her phone started ringing. It wasn't from anyone she knew. Bonnie answered the call and placed the phone to her ear.
"This is Lorenzo Augustine" the man began.
The Italian monbster?
"I know something you might want to hear" he boated.
"And what is that?" Bonnie asked.
"I know where Klaus Mikaelson is"
Her heart suddenly started beating ten times faster.
"If your not lying" she played it cool.
"I'm not" he promised like it meant something, "Well to be more percific, I know where he was"
"Where?"
"Rome love. Where else?" he smiled.
And with that he hung up.
Enzo placed his phone on the side and turned back to his mistress.
"How did it go?" Katerina Petrova asked.
"Good" he told her, "Hopefully that'll put them on his trail"
"Well" she began in a flirtatious tone.
Suddenly they heard the sound of his wife coming in. Enzo swore and his rolled his eyes.
"Don't worry" he assured her, "She'll behave. She knows better then to to defy me"
Katerina smiled and contined to make out with him. When this was happening April had been putting the food away after a shop. When she heard the familier noises coming from her husband's bedroom she began crying. She did this every time and Enzo didn't even notice.
...
Five mouths later...
"Push!" the midwife cried as Meredith was giving birth.
She was in the hospital ward of the prison so at least she didn't need the worry about hospital bills. Meredith pushed with all her might until the baby finally came out of her; her last part of Kol. This was the moment she'd had been dreading, the moment where her child would be seperated from her.
A cry echoed around the room as new life came into the room. The midwife held the baby in her arms and was smiling at the new mother.
"It's a boy" she beamed.
Happiness flooded through her system but suddenly it was bitter sweet. This baby will grow up to be a stranger to her. With that thought she suddenly started crying. The boy already had streaks of brown hair and chocolate brown eyes. A true Mikaelson.
"Can I name him?" Meredith asked, hopefully.
"Sure" the woman nodded.
"Mikael" she chose.
"Mikael it is" she agreed, "Do you want to hold him?"
Meredith knew that if she held him then she'd never let him go.
"I can't" Meredith sobbed.
The midwife looked sympathetic and took him away. Leaving her to her tears.
...
Caroline and her boyfriend were walking though the villiage square, hand in hand. They were out in the open in a southern french villiage; they're new home. They'd been living there for four mouths. Caroline had gotten work in a hospital and Klaus or 'Ryan Evans' had gotten work in an art gallery. To the rest of the villiage they were a sweet couple from the west who loved each other.
Klaus now (in public) had black hair with green eyes and a short beard. This all came off of course when he was in private but he wasn't complaining. He had everything he'd dreamed of, freedom, the girl of his dreams and a baby on the way. What could be more perfect?
