Trixie was looking over a few maps and outlines of the whole city limits as Elijah was tapping a pencil on the desk watching over her shoulder. She was trying to map out where they could start to find the old witch house and he had just back from talking to his warlocks that were none too happy with him when he informed them that they had another witch helping them. Apparently Klaus had their daughter/sister and with Trixie helping they thought Elijah would go back on his word in helping to get her back for them. Now Elijah was concentrated on mapping out where to start looking, to see if Trixie could feel the pull again, to find the witch burial ground so Bonnie could do what she needed to do. Even though they didnt know a thing about what Trixie was really doing.
"Stefan called, your warlocks are pissed man." Elijah looked up from the desk to Damon and Katherine who just walked in to them. When Elijah had left for that short time, Trixie went ahead and started mapping while Damon and Katherine had a bit of a tussle in the living room again about why she was there. Trixie didnt understand why Damon couldnt see that Katherine was just trying to prove to Trixie that she was still a good person. Well no matter what she tried to do to prove it, Trixie didnt care anyways, but Damon needed to quit fighting with her all the time because she was getting tired of it.
"Why? What happened?"
"Stefan went to talk to them, to see if they might know where the house would be. Jonas got pissed saying that if you didnt need him because of the new witch then Stefan didnt need to come to him fer help either. Apparently Stefan ran his mouth about helping Elena and Jonas figured going after her would change your mind on who helps to fight Klaus."
"So hes going after Elena now cause Stefan was stupid?"
"Yeah."
"Why didnt you just say that doufus! God Elijah, what are we going to do now?"
"Im not sure. We need to go and intercept him though."
"I got an idea." They all turned to Katherine who was smiling as Trixie leaned against the table and watched Damon shake his head at her.
"This has got to be good." Katherine hit Damon on his arm and as Elijah motioned for her to continue Katherine went into a plan to get Jonas to follow Elena home, where Katherine would take her place somewhere in the house and deal with them like a vampire does. Elijah agreed but as he did he glanced to Trixie and frowned.
"If we do this Trixie, I am going to count on you to be my witch in the plan."
"I understand and you know I can protect you a lot better than any other witch or warlock. I'll do it. Just be careful you two, we do need you still you know." Trixie eyed Katherine and Damon as he shook his head and she smiled evilly to her. Damon grabbed Katherine arm and rushed out of the boarding house to go to Elena's to help out, leaving Elijah and Trixie alone as she continued to glance over the woods on the map. Elijah was wondering where else there was an old building back then when they found Trixie in Mystic Falls but after he marked one more spot, the Old Lockwood property, Trixie smiled and pointed to another spot right next to it.
"The cellar?" Trixie eyed Elijah as she sighed and turned the map around 180 degrees. She looked again and as she found the front of the house instead of the back she pointed to another spot and smiled.
"No, it was a few blocks down away from the front of the house, the cellar was around the back. Sorry, wasnt seeing it from your view. So now what?"
"I will go and see if everything is alright at Miss Gilbert's house then we will take Bonnie out to the spot. We only need her to get the powers than we will prepare for Nik's arrival."
"Elijah, why exactly did you decide to kill him?" Elijah glanced to Trixie and as he sighed he sat in a near by chair. She leaned up against the table as Elijah pinched the bridge of his nose.
"Trixie, its complicated and it happened after you left darling."
"Ok? I can keep up pretty good."
"Fine, you do remember how he had Finn int he coffin and was threatening us as well right?"
"Yeah, Kol swore he was going to leave for the last time before I left. Why?"
"Well, Kol never left after you Trixie. Its the biggest reason why he never found you after you ran. He took Nik's brute anger and payed the price. I ran, I didnt stick around but Rebekah wasnt so lucky either. He let her up and around a few years later but as far as I know now, shes in her coffin with my two brothers. I want them back and he has swore to me he will never take me to them. WIth him still alive Trixie, he keeps moving them and I will never get an upper hand to finding them. Once he is dead, I can find them, undagger them all, and we will finally be able to live like a family." Elijah gave a crooked smile as he glanced to Trixie and she nodded. She understood him completely whenever he talked about his family, she lived with them for so long, and she was agreeing with him. They needed to be found and undaggered. Elijah smiled finally as he got up and patted Trixies shoulder, heading towards the door.
"Where are you going?"
"To the Gilberts. I need to make sure everything is taken care of. When we are done we will come get you and head on to the witches house. The sooner we get prepared the better." Trixie nodded as Elijah smiled and walked out the door to go see what his other two warlocks were doing to mess up his plans. Trixie sat on the table now as she ran her hands over the blue prints and frowned. she actually remembered that night wonderfully, the night she left them all, the night she thought her best friend and crush was going to stay with her. But just like Damon it was a foolish thing to think and she was alone all over again.
"I promise Trixie! Nik will not make me stay ay longer than tomorrow. After you get to Florida keep running straight up north. I will meet you somewhere in New York. Maybe at the Statue of Liberty. Give me three days behind you and we shall meet there."
"Im trusting you Kol."
"I swear Trix. Dont you trust me?"
"You yes, him no." Trixie stared into the chocolate brown eyes of Kol as he pleaded with her to just listen to him for once. She had been running with Klaus and his family now for almost 50 years and being the new century in 1900 she knew it was a sign for them to have their own new life. Klaus was all talking about ruling the New Orléans area but as he gathered people from all over and continued to stretch his vampire followers Kol and Trixie were getting more and more uncomfortable with how short of a leash Klaus kept them on. Kol, a could be ripper if given the chance, and Trixie, the elemental witch that could take anyone down, were Klaus's two most favorite people to use when things didnt go his way but Trixie was against using her powers to harm. When she talked to Elijah he agreed and they all together decided to leave Klaus and let him keep his new vampires for company. Elijah was going to leave right after Kol and Trixie, to make it seem like he was hunting them, and Rebekah said that if Klaus turned his anger on her she would soon follow.
"I swear, I will keep him from coming to find you and as soon as I can I will follow. I wont let you down."
"I know Kol. You were always trying to prove that to me but I know! I just dont know what this is going to do to him! I have been with him since I was changed. He trusts me...just wont listen to me."
"He wont hurt you or follow you, I swear. Please Trix." She looked up as Kol held her by her shoulders and was begging her to believe him and to trust his choices. She sighed as she nodded and he hugged her tight. She smiled as she wrapped her arms around his neck and hugged him back briefly before someone cleared their throat and made her gasp. They turned to glance at Klaus standing in Trixie's doorway smiling at them.
"Oh dont let me bother you darling. I was just wondering what was keeping my brother here for our little boys night out."
"You mean our scouting to make sure everyone is doing what you want?" Klaus sneered at Kol as he sighed and turned back to Trixie. She nodded and as he waved his brother off and Klaus left he smiled to Trixie. She gripped his shoulders tight as she heard Klaus calling for him from downstairs but Kol chuckled a bit as he placed his hand over her heart.
"Kol." He shook his head as he glanced to the floor and she understood that Klaus was probably listing right now. She sighed as Kol pressed his forehead against hers and sighed himself. He hated to say goodbye to her so suddenly after finding out they were perfect for each other but he knew she wanted to be rid of his brother and this was the only way to do it without him following them. She had a tear fall as she pulled back and tried to hide it but he saw and as he turned her to face him and wiped away another she smiled.
"I'll be back with you soon." He winked as she nodded and he kissed her, slowly and tenderly, before taking a deep breath and vanishing into the Louisiana night with Klaus. She glared outside of the house they were in when she felt someone behind her and turned to see Elijah. He smiled as he motioned for her to follow him.
"Take this trail here, it will lead you to a town near Alabama. there will be another witch there that knows me. Give her this and she will help you get to Florida. From there it is up to who Kol has set up for you. Remember, he will be no longer than three days behind you. If he doesnt show..." Elijah frowned as Trixie shook her head and pouted in a childish manner.
"If he doesnt come, I will track Nik down and demand an answer. If he did anything Elijah, I will kill him. Somehow, someway I will kill him if he takes this from me too." Elijah nodded, knowing she was for real, and as he hugged her tight she smiled and vanished herself towards the town of Mobile Alabama. She was rushing to get as far away as she could before Nik found out but Elijah knew it would only be a matter of time. He sighed to himself as he held a necklace out to look at. He prayed she wouldnt notice the one thing she cherished missing but as he turned to go back inside he had no time to think before he heard his brothers coming back early. Elijah took the necklace, put it in an envelope and on the outside wrote Kol's name. He quickly put the envelope under Kol's pillow and rushed to the living room where Klaus and Kol were coming back in, Klaus already angered beyond repair.
"How dare they try to join up and overpower me. TRIXIE! I shall show them, they will burn until I see fit and then when they beg for me to let them follow under my power I will have them drowned. Trixie! Come here love, I have work for you!" Kol glanced to Elijah and as Klaus caught the exchange he paused, sniffed the air suddenly, then vanished around the house. Kol frowned as Elijah patted his back and smiled briefly.
"Brother?" Elijah and Kol turned to Rebekah who was watching Klaus as he glared at the wall flexing his fists.
"Where is she?" Rebekah and Elijah exchanged a look but before anyone could say a word Klaus had Kol by his neck up against the wall and was growling in his face.
"Nicklaus! Leave him be! Whats going on!"
"Where is my witch brother!"
"With any luck, far from you." Kol glared at Klaus as he grinned a bit before taking out a silver dagger and slamming it into Kol's chest, growling more as he turned to glare at Elijah. Rebekah was screaming at him as she fell beside Kol's body.
"What did you do that for! What the hell is going on!"
"Trixie's missing, where is she Elijah?"
"Honestly, I am not sure. She said she was going to take a walk. Thats all I know." Klaus roared like a lion as he rushed to Trixies room and tore it apart from ceiling to floor. Elijah touched Rebekah's shoulder and gave her a look that told her what really happened. Klaus moved from Trixies room to Kol's and as Klaus ripped it apart as well Elijah took that as his cue. He handed Rebekah a note as he vanished out the front door before Klaus came back carrying the envelope Elijah had put under Kols pillow. He threw it at his sister who was in tears about her brother.
"Nik! Whats going on!"
"Shes gone! Trixie left us, she just left. All of us! There read it! The note to Kol, she told him in there she had enough and was leaving. Even returned his necklace. I swear when I find her I will kill her."
"Brother no! Shes of no threat! Leave her be Nik. Please. Please let Kol up too brother, if he had nothing to do with it why punish him?"
"He did Rebekah. I know he did and he shall stay that way until I see fit. Are you with me sister or against me?" Rebekah wiped her tears away as she nodded and sighed, slowly putting both the envelope Elijah put under Kol's pillow and his note he handed her inside her dress before she stood and watched Klaus dragging Kol's body to the coffins, in the basement, where Finn was too.
"Two down brother, how many more until you stop?" She wiped another tear before going to her room to read the note Elijah gave her about how and why Trixie fled. After she understood, she burned the note and put the necklace around her neck for her brother whenever he was undaggered. It hung next tot he necklace her mother gave her and as she started to brush her hair she wondered to herself, why didnt she run with them?
