So I'm back. Should be studying to my next exam but I wanted to share this with you as well.
Enjoy.
I do not own The Originals, only my OC.

Cue The Rain
Klaus` p.o.v
I could hear the scream and the thud of someone falling down the stairs. I could feel and smell whom it was.
My Amy.
She was lying at the bottom of the stairs out cold. In that moment, I was terrified of losing her and the baby. I rushed over to her at the same time as every vampire in the Abattoir came rushing forwards. I was the one to pick her up, not wanting anyone else to touch her. Amy were still unconscious when I held her in my arms.
I looked up and saw her brother Jeremy and Kol. They looked terrified but then I saw Elijah and I knew that look. Why hadn't I seen it before? It was the look of a concerned man in love. I knew he was close to Amy but not this close.
"What happened?" Jeremy Gilbert asked me as I took her into our bedroom.
"She fell down the stairs and knocked herself unconscious." I told her little brother. I placed Amy on our bed and wanted to be alone with her.
"I know you're concerned about Amy but I need to be alone with her for a while." Jeremy didn't like this and I could understand that.
"I will come for you when she wakes up."
"I'm not leaving her." Jeremy was being stubborn but also afraid.
"Fine. You can stay but the rest of you, get out." I glared at my big brother. He reluctantly left us. How dared he have feelings for my Amy? Did she feel something for him as well?
I couldn't let those things matter right now.
"Is the baby ok?" Jeremy asked and brought me back.
"I can still hear her heartbeat. I think everything's fine." I told him without taking my eyes off her.
I was so scared of losing her. I knew I wouldn't survive without her.
Amy`s p.o.v
I woke with a gasp on my own bed. I sat up and was immediately in Nik's arms.
"Ssh. It's ok love." He told me.
"What happened?" I looked at both Nik and my brother.
"You fell down the stairs. But I don't know what happened before that." Nik told me. My arms went instinctively to my stomach.
"The baby is just fine. She's a tough one, just like her mother." He told me and I started to relax.
"What happened before you fell?" Jeremy asked me concerned.
"I haven't been feeling well tonight and I got dizzy and past out just as I was supposed to walk downstairs and that`s the last thing I remember." I told them as my tears streamed down my face.
"What caused this?" Nik cupped my face and stared at me.
"Jeremy, can I get a few minutes alone with Nik?" I asked my brother. Reluctantly, Jeremy got up and left us.
"It's been so stressful around here lately, it's not good for the baby. She gets worked up when I'm angry or upset and it's been a lot of that lately." I told him honestly.
"We're drifting apart again Nik and it's worse than before and you know it and I don't know how we're going to survive it. I feel so insecure, as if everything I do is wrong. I feel out of place."
Nik cut me off by kissing me a long and loving kiss. The kind that I have been missing and craving.
"I've been neglecting you haven't I?" He said and leaned his forehead against mine.
"I'm so sorry little wolf."
"I think we need some time alone together Nik. Away from this place. There's so much going on here right now that we forget what it means to be in love. I can't believe that I'm saying this but it was a lot easier when we lived in Mystic Falls."
Nik chuckled a little and kissed my forehead. Without another word, he picked me up from the bed.
"What are you doing?" I asked with a strange looked upon my face.
"I'm taking you away from here for the night." He told me.
"What about Davina? I can't just leave her here. I promised her that I would stay with her."
"The little witch will be fine. She has a lot of protection and she's sleeping now. We'll be back first thing in the morning." Nik said and opened the bedroom door.
He took me downstairs to his car.
"Where are you going? Are you ok?" Elijah, Kol and Jeremy came down to the garage. I could see the worry in Elijah's eyes. I felt a pang of guilt for what I did to him earlier today.
"Everything is fine. I am taking Amy away from here for the night. She needs some quiet time just for one night." Nik told them.
"Please take care of Davina. I'll be back first thing in the morning. I promise." I told Kol and he only nodded.
"We'll take care of her, I promise." Kol told me and closed the passenger door. Nik drove out of the Abattoir and down Bourbon Street.
"Where are we going?" I asked him.
"We're spending the night in our bed at the plantation for the night." Nik told me and kissed my hand. I felt relieved that we got this night together and alone but I knew that his or my phone could easily disturb us. We reached the plantation in no time. It was so quiet and I loved it.
"So, what do you want to do?" He asked me as he closed the door behind us.
"Honestly, all I want to do is to take a bath and then go to bed." I told him and leaned against him.
"Well, let me run it for you then." He said and kissed my forehead.
"I want to take a bath preferable with you." I said and smiled up at him.
"I think we can arrange that." He picked me up again, rushed me upstairs and started the water.
It was so nice being together like a normal couple for once. We got in the bathtub and Nik was sitting behind me. I leaned into his embrace. It felt so nice.
"How is our little princess feeling right now?" Nik whispered in my ear whilst he placed his hands on my stomach.
"She feels happy and hopefully sleeping. Almost like I am about to do." I told him.
"That's good. It sad that I haven't even felt her kick yet. You're 5 months pregnant now and I haven't felt it once." Nik actually looked sad.
"Well, hopefully you will soon." I told him and turned my head to look at him.
"I love you, Amy." It felt so good to hear him say that again. I felt like it's been forever since he said it like that.
"I love you too Niklaus Mikaelson." He kissed me tenderly and I felt my heart skip a beat. It was amazing that after all this time, every kiss still felt like our first kiss.
After some time in the bathtub, we got out and got ready for bed. I was seriously tired. It actually felt good to be back in my old bedroom and my old bed. I settled in under the sheets and Nik brought me as close to him as possible.
"Sleep well, little wolf." Nik murmured in my ear.
"Goodnight Nik." I told him with a yawn. I was at the verge of sleep when I suddenly shot up gasping.
"What's wrong? Is it the baby?" Nik asked worriedly.
"No. It's nothing wrong." I told him with a smile. I grabbed his hand.
"The baby. She's kicking." I told him with a smile. I knew Nik could feel it too.
"That's amazing." He whispered with tears in his eyes. He kissed me tenderly again.
"What are you thinking?" I asked softly.
"I am thinking that I am so much more in love with you right now. If that's even possible." I felt my tears trying to escape.
I kissed him.
"Well. Now that our daughter is awake and lively, what do you say to a little make out session?" I asked my boyfriend.
I didn't have to ask him twice.
I fell asleep feeling safe and secure for a change.
The next morning, we woke up early. We had to return to New Orleans. I didn't want to go but a part of me needed to be with Davina and I wanted to be there before she woke up.
Things between Nik and me were good right now. We really needed this little time together. Nik parked the car in the garage and we walked hand in hand back to the Abattoir.
Jeremy and Kol was the first ones to greet us.
"How are you feeling?" Jeremy asked me.
"Much better, thank you. How is Davina?" I asked back.
"She slept through the night Darling and she's still sleeping." Kol said.
"I should go check on her." I said.
"Allow me, sweetheart. You should go and get some breakfast." Nik said and kissed my forehead before leaving.
Jeremy ran upstairs to make scrambled eggs for me and I was stuck with Kol.
"So, did you get into any trouble while I was away?" I asked him.
"No, I stayed with Davina all night. She's actually a really nice girl. Once you get to know her." I could see the light in his eyes.
"Don't even think about it, Kol! She's only 16!" I glared at him. Kol started laughing.
"I'm sorry sweetheart. I was just messing with you." Kol wrapped his arm around my shoulder and we walked into the living room. Elijah was standing there with the picture of Celeste that Davina drew. Elijah turned to look at me and gave me a smile.
"Good to see you again, Amy. How was your night?" He asked me.
"Relaxing." I said simply and sat down on the couch. Elijah looked happy because I was happy.
"So, do you have a story for me?" I asked him.
"As the matter of fact I do." Elijah said and looked at the picture again.
"The Italians call them Strega. The Yoruba of West Africa call them Aje, meaning mother. Where my mother was from they called them Hexa, and here, we call them witch.
Over the centuries the vampires has fought against them and fought beside them, bedded them and burned them. As our enemy or allies, they have been forced to be reckon with. The magic of the ancestors anchors our city. There's never been one all-powerful witch, until Davina."
"Who's now tucked in safe and sound down the hall, under my protection." Nik came in after checking in on Davina. It made me feel better. Nik looked at the drawings.
"Celeste was quite beautiful and a potent of evil according to Davina." Nik said and it got me a little annoyed that also he though she was beautiful.
"Yes but maybe Davina was mistaken of what she calls evil for power. Celeste was really powerful in her day but she's been dead for 200 years. I don't understand why all these sketches now." Elijah said and sat down on the couch opposite of me whilst Jeremy came in with my breakfast.
"Why does any witch do anything?" Nik asked as he sat down beside me.
Suddenly I heard screaming from Davina's bedroom. She was angry with Marcel and she called my name.
"I should go and calm her down before she does something she can't control." I said and got up. Nik grabbed my arm.
"Be careful, please." Nik pleaded me. All I could do was to nod and at the same time, another item in her room smashed against the wall. Nik was getting annoyed.
"Young, old, dead or alive witches are a pain in the ass." I couldn't help myself and smacked Nik's head before leaving and it made Kol and Jeremy laugh.
I walked into Davina's room at the same time as she started to cough. She had trouble breathing. I tried to comfort her but got spooked when dirt and sand was coming out of her mouth. Suddenly Nik came through the door.
"What's all this nonsense?" When he saw the dirt coming out of Davina's mouth, he stopped.
"Bloody hell." He muttered under his breath. He looked at me.
"I know you care about Davina but I need you to get out of this room right now." He told me. I didn't want to leave her.
"That's not going to happen and you know that." I told Nik firmly. Suddenly, an earthquake began. Things were falling down around us and I was scared. Nik held me against him for safety. He grabbed me and we went outside. Everything was moving around. Rebekah came towards us.
"What the bloody hell is happening?" She asked.
"Davina." Nik simply said.
Then it got quiet again. Rebekah went to see how Davina was doing and Nik grabbed me to keep me with him in the living room.
Nik looked at all of us.
"This is madness. How can a 16 year old girl shake the entire French Quarter?" He asked.
"I've seen her rock the church but I've never seen something like this before." Marcel told us.
"How did you control her in the attic?"
"I didn't have to but I never killed her boyfriend." Marcel said coldly.
"Yes, we've been over this part all ready. The point is in her present state she's a useless tool against the witches." Nik said.
"She's not a tool, something's wrong with her." Marcel told the others.
"She has too much power that she cannot control, that we already knew." Elijah said.
I slowly got up. I wanted to see Davina and Nik didn't stop me. I was just going into her room when I saw Elijah was leaving. I knew where he was going so I approached him.
"You're going to see Sophie." It was more of a statement than a question.
"You didn't have to eavesdrop, I keep nothing from you." Elijah told me and started to walk.
"I didn't." I said and followed him.
"And I don't like keeping things from you either but if you're going to see Sophie then I need to tell you something."
Elijah stopped and turned to me. I knew that in a few moments time, he would be so upset with me and I was dreading this.
"Sophie called me and asked me for a favor, she kind of held my family as blackmail. They are bound by a curse to stay in their wolf form and she said she was the only one to break it and she wouldn't help me if I didn't help her." God! I was rambling. It didn't make any sense.
"Amy. Whatever this is, you have to tell me." Elijah said. This was going to be bad.
"Sophie wanted to find Celeste's remains, so Jeremy and I went through your journals and I found out where you buried her and I told her." I could see it on his face. He was hurt and it was my fault.
"I know it was stupid and wrong but I didn't know what to do. I should have just asked you."
Elijah didn't know how to respond to what I told him.
"Please say something." It came out barely as a whisper. I was preparing for him to yell at me but what he said next was even more heartbreaking.
"She wanted to be left in peace. When a witch's remains are consecrated, that power fuels the community. Celeste did not want her remains to be found. She made me promise to bury her where she would not be found. Not only have you violated my privacy, you have broken my promise to her."
I felt so terrible. What I've done to him was unforgiveable.
"I thought it was just bones Elijah."
"If you truly believed that. Why didn't you ask me where to find her?" With that, Elijah left me alone. I started to cry and the next I knew, Kol was standing in front of me with Jeremy coming behind him.
"Are you alright darling?" He asked me. All I could do was shaking my head.
"Just give Elijah some time he cannot stay mad at you for long." Kol told me and gave me a hug.
I looked over at my brother and he gave me a sad smile.
"I should've never insisting on you doing this." Jeremy said to me.
"Don't. I knew exactly what I was doing." I let go of Kol and walked back inside. I needed to see how Davina was doing.
I peaked my head in. She was not looking good. She was sweating and tossing around in bed. In spite of the minions warning me, I got into her bed and held her. She was all alone in this and she needed someone to lean on. Davina opened her eyes.
"Amy? Where were you last night?" She asked me weakly.
"I'm sorry. I got ill last night so I couldn't return." I told her as I stroke her hair.
"Oh. Are you ok now?" She sat up a bit.
"Yes everything is fine. How did Jeremy and Kol treat you?" I asked.
Davina gave me a small smile.
"They were arguing a bit and discussed you. You do know they all really care about you?"
"What do you mean?"
"Well Elijah and Kol sat in here yesterday, talking. They didn't know I was awake. They were talking about you. How good you are and how beautiful you are." I didn't know what to say.
"Amy, I think Elijah is in love with you. The way he was talking about you. It sounded like a man in love." Davina closed her eyes again and drifted off in an uneasy sleep.
Could it be true? No. Elijah wasn't in love with me, he couldn't be. Besides, I love Nik.
After a little while, I walked out of her room and to the living room where Nik and Rebekah were.
"How is she?" Nik asked me as I sat down beside him.
"She's sleeping for now but I think it's just a matter of time before she gets worse." I said worried out of my mind. Nik brought me closer to him.
Jeremy and Kol joined us when Elijah came back with Sophie. Well this was awkward.
Elijah sat down in a chair and he wanted answers from Sophie.
"You stole the remains of the very same witch Davina has been drawing for months. Care to explain about this startling coincidence?"
Sophie looked at the drawings.
"I can't. I didn't know about Celeste Dubois until I.." Sophie was interrupted by a scream and then the house started shaking again. I knew it was Davina. I needed to get up there to her. No one else even flinched whilst the house shook
"Was that Davina?" Sophie asked.
"Charming little habit she has developed." Nik said with a little annoyance.
"And the earthquake I felt today?"
"Also Davina and she's has been throwing up dirt." Rebekah said informingly. Sophie was terrified.
"Oh. We have a huge problem. I thought that we had more time but we need to complete the harvest, now!" Sophie said.
"Said the desperate witch. Conveniently." Nik looked a little smug.
"I'm serious. That earthquake you just felt, it's the preview of the disaster movie about to hit us."
"Why should we believe you?" Elijah asked.
"You've met Davina. You know her story. For months now, she's been holding all the power from the three girls who were sacrificed in the harvest ritual. A force that was meant to flow through her and back into the earth. One person was never meant to hold that much power. It's tearing her apart and it's taking us down with it."
Everyone looked at each other. This was really bad. Nik looked at me once and then looked at Kol and Jeremy.
"Keep Amy safe until I return." He commanded quickly and left in a hurry.
Great, Nik were overprotective of me again. Like I couldn't take care of myself.
"We should tell Davina what's going on." I said aloud.
"I'll do it." Rebekah said and got up.
"No! I'll do it. She should hear it from me." I told Rebekah and got up. Without saying anything else I got up and walked to Davina's room followed by Rebekah, Kol and Jeremy.
Davina looked up at me. She was so scared.
"Amy, what's happening to me?" I sat down on the bed and started to tell her what was wrong. She was starting to shake and I couldn't continue. Rebekah stepped forward.
"And then comes wind, and since the next one is more intense then the last, you could say you'll blow the roof of this place and after the wind, it's water and it will be pretty bad and the last one is fire. It will tear this city apart. To stop all of this from happening, they want to complete the ritual."
Davina looked at me.
"No!" She was terrified and it killed me.
"The witches said you'll be resurrected." Rebekah tried to calm her down.
"They're liars. They'll say anything to get what they want. Just like Marcel. Just like you." She told Rebekah.
"Davina you may think that I don't care about you but you're wrong. I know what it's like to have everything ripped away from you based on bad decisions. How do you think I became a vampire?"
Rebekah tried to give Davina some sedative but that got Davina all worked up and made the wind blew up outside. Rebekah were quick with the sedative and it made her calm down and the wind calmed down a little. I needed to get out of there. This was too intense for me.
I walked outside to get some air. So much for a non-stressful environment for my daughter. A witch apocalypse. I wanted to stay by myself for a while but Kol and Jeremy stayed close by me.
After about 15 minutes, Nik and Elijah came back.
"The sedated her too heavily." Elijah said to Nik as he picked up some of the chairs.
"Well, if this is her sedated, I'd like to see her otherwise." Nik complained.
"We agreed that Davina would be sacrificed. There's no need for her to blow off our roof in the meantime." Nik told his brother.
"No way. You're not touching her!" Marcel jumped down to them and hit Nik square in the face, making me angry and stepped forward.
"Alright, I'll guess I deserved that one." Nik told Marcel.
"Yes and you deserve this!" I told Marcel and was about to punch him when Kol grabbed me and held on to me keeping me from them. I struggled against him.
"Marcel no one wishes to harm that girl less than I but there is no scenario here. If we simply wait this out, she's going to die." Elijah kept Marcel back.
"According to Sophie, the witch that screwed over everybody here." Marcel snapped.
"The harvest was working before it was stopped. The non-believers like Sophie Deveraux come to have faith that these girls can be resurrected then I also am a believer."
Marcel walked up to Nik.
"I saved Davina from the harvest and now you want me to just hand her over?"
"Do you think I am happy about this? If the witches complete the harvest, not only will they regain their power, we lose our weapon against them. The earthquake I was willing to see as a coincidence but these winds. If Davina is not sacrificed every inch of earth that shook, everything blowing about now will soon be drenched in water and consumed by fire." Nik told him.
"Oh, now you care about the city." Marcel argued back.
"We should, we built it." Elijah said.
"And we all saw it burn to the ground, twice. I do not want that to happen again. Do I make myself clear?" Nik said firmly.
"Yeah." Marcel said and left us.
"You're not a people-person are you Niklaus?" Elijah asked.
"Nonsense Elijah. I love people. Just on my way to warn some of them. In case, the weather gets out of hand. Perhaps you want to tag along?"
"No, since Sophie Deveraux is consecrating Celeste's remains and though her actions is comprehensible, still I should pay my respect." Elijah said and walked to the gate. I needed to talk to him.
"Elijah, can I talk to you for a moment?" I asked but he cut me off and left without saying a word.
Nik could see that this was hard for me.
"I'll talk to him, little wolf. I love you." Nik said to me and kissed me before going after his big brother.
"Which one of us is the people-person again?" He was mocking his brother.
Jeremy touched my shoulder but I moved away from his touch.
"I need some time alone right now." I said to both him and Kol. I walked down to the basement and I let it all go and just cried. My daughter noticed my distress and moved around like crazy. I rubbed my belly.
"I'm so sorry little one. I promise you I will do better." I whispered to her mostly to sooth myself.
I don't know how long I was sitting there but then I remembered the wolves in the Bayou. They needed help. I had to try to help them somehow and the first thing that came to mind was food.
I found the food cellar and found a lot of food that I could provide them with and started packing it down into boxes.
I couldn't stop crying so I needed something else to do. I suddenly felt arms around me. I didn't know that Nik had returned.
"What are you doing?" He asked me softly.
"I was going to take these out to the.."
"If you say Bayou, I will chain you our bed and not in the kinky way!" Nik was angry.
"I can't just do nothing, Nik! Everything is falling apart here. Whatever I do, I can't save Davina. I can't do anything to stop this. The only thing can do is this and I can't handle this anymore!" I knocked over some tables, having a real tantrum. Nik actually looked scared for me. All he could do was to keep his arms around me, trying to calm me down.
I was having a mental breakdown and it didn't get any better when he told me that Marcel had taken Davina and ran off.
"Would you like to come with me? I want to show you something. Maybe this will ease your mind a bit." Nik told me.
I nodded into his chest and he picked up the boxes I had packed.
Nik drove me to St. Ann's church. I didn't understand why we came here. A man came towards us and something told me that this was Father Kieran.
"We haven't gone through the other stuff yet that you provided for us Klaus." He said as Nik gave him the box.
"This isn't from me. It's from her." Nik looked back at me.
"That's very kind of you.."
"Amy." I answered him.
"Ah. You're Klaus' girlfriend?" I only nodded.
"And these people are?" I asked.
"Father Kieran has given them shelter. He likes to do others good. But now I need you to be useful. Marcel and Davina have disappeared. I assume that because of the look on your face, you don't have them stashed up in your attic."
"Those days are gone." Father Kieran stated.
"Then energize your resources. I don't need to remind you how important it is for them to be found."
Kieran picked up his phone and left us. I looked around I have seen some of these people before.
"These people. They are werewolves aren't they? And the priest he said that you donated the food. You are helping them?" I asked him.
"They are not your werewolves. They're my clan from very far back. They have fallen upon hard times and that has brought out the philanthropist in me. What can I say, maybe it's Elijah's influence." I felt I threw that in my face on purpose but I didn't say anything right now.
"What did you mean when you said your clan?" I asked as we walked back to the car.
"The blood that runs in their veins, runs in mine and in our daughter." This was too much for me to handle.
"This family gets more complicated by the second." I told him and shrugged. Nik chuckled a little and kissed my forehead.
"I heard you had a fight with Elijah today. Word of advice when it comes to dealing with him, don't do what I do. Just apologize. He's a master in forgiveness. Now let's get you home safe." He said and opened the passenger door for me.
When we got back, I walked straight to my brother's room. I needed some alone time with him. But he wasn't alone. When I opened the door, he and Kol were playing Xbox.
"Really? There's an apocalypse out here now and you two are seriously playing Xbox? Unbelievable!" I exclaimed at the newfound friends.
They were about to answer but then Nik came and told us that Elijah wanted to talk to all of us. I came in to the living room, just as Rebekah said;
"After a thousand years, you've finally gone mad. Our own mother?"
"Yes our beloved mother whom Niklaus affectionately placed in a coffin in our basement. Not daggered but quite dead."
"Well she tried to kill us and Amy at one point." Nik said with a smirk.
"I say we put it to use and put it to rest once and for all. Now if we bury our mother on land owned by one of her descendants, she becomes a New Orleans witch and we as her family share that share that ancestor magic." Elijah explained.
"We are vampires, Elijah. We can`t practice magic." Rebekah said.
"Yes but we know someone who can. Sophie Deveaux. We just have to be a part of the harvest. As for our own property, not all of mother's descendants are dead." He said and brought out a piece of paper.
"The baby." I said with a shudder.
"The baby. According to this paper, we now own the plantation. If we bury our mother there and we consecrated those grounds, we could complete the harvest."
I didn't like the sound of this as all but it seemed like Nik and Kol did. I felt this was too dangerous.
"Am I the only one thinking?" Rebekah asked her brothers.
"Our mother was the most powerful witch in history. If we bury her, we hand that power to our enemies, to use against us."
"Concerning our circumstances I don't see we have any choice, Rebekah." Elijah said.
"I don't know why I bother. You two would just do what you want anyway." She said.
"No. Our decision must be unanimous." Elijah stated.
"This is not a democracy." Nik said annoyed.
"You're quite right. This is family." With that, the rain started to pour out side.
"Water." Kol stated.
"The next sign begins Rebekah." Elijah said.
"Kill a demon today, face the devil tomorrow. Count me in." Rebekah said.
Nik looked smug.
"Well. This is no family reunion without our mother. I'll fetch her." Nik left us and I felt like I didn't understand anything. No one explained to me what all of this meant for my daughter and me.
"Don't worry Amy. This will not harm your child." Rebekah said before she disappeared to try to find Marcel.
Nik came back shortly and we drove off to the plantation. He asked Jeremy to drive. Nik felt the need of sitting in the back with me.
"Nothing will happen with you, Amy. I won't allow it." He told me and kissed me tenderly.
I could see Elijah staring at us. He was jealous. I knew he was.
Father Kieran was waiting for us to perform the funeral. We all stood around the coffin in the rain. Nik kept his arm securely around my waist. He turned to Rebekah.
"Did you find them?" He asked her.
"Yes."
"Will he bring her?"
"He'll bring her." Rebekah said confident.
"Are you ready to do this?" Father Kieran asked us. Nik took out a knife and sliced his hand open.
"Always and forever." He handed the knife over to me and I did the same. When all of us had done it with the same knife, Father Kieran took the knife and threw it in the grave with the coffin.
"It's done." He told us and Jeremy came running out of the house. Why he had to go back there, I didn't know.
"We need to get back to the cemetery." Nik told us and all I could do was to nod. On the ride back, it hit me. Davina was going to die. I couldn't hold back the tears anymore. Nik didn't say anything to me and just kept closely to himself and kissed my head.
We reached the cemetery faster than I thought. It was raining more than ever before and all we could do was to wait. To wait and see if Marcel would bring Davina. I couldn't stop myself from trembling. I wasn't cold, I just couldn't stop.
With Nik in on hand and my brother in the other, I was able to keep me standing up.
Suddenly we saw flames high up in the air.
"Fire!" Sophie exclaimed. Slowly but surely, Marcel approached us with Davina in his arms. She looked so fragile.
Marcel placed Davina down by the other girls from the sacrifice and Sophie got ready to finish it all. Davina looked at me and it was torture. She wasn't crying anymore. Before I knew what I was doing, I ran towards her and hugged her tight.
"It's ok, Amy. I promise everything will be ok. We'll see each other again." She told me.
"I love you." I told her whilst crying.
"I love you too, Amy. You've been like a mother to me." Nik had to physically move me away from her. Very gently, I might add.
"Come on sweetheart. We have to do this now." He said softly. I walked with him and buried myself onto Jeremy's shoulder. I did not want to see it happen. It was hard enough to know that she was going to die.
Then I knew she was dead. I could feel it and the rain stopped. It made me cry even more. Sophie didn't waste any time. She started the rest of the ritual.
"After the harvest comes the reaping. The sacrifices made and accepted. We call upon our elders to resurrect your chosen ones."
Silence. Nothing happened. I dared to look up from my brother's shoulder. It was terrible to watch her lying there dead.
"We call upon our elders to resurrect your ones." Sophie repeated.
Nothing happened. It didn't work. Sophie broke down, pleading. Something went wrong. Davina wasn't coming back. I just knew it. I was about to hit the ground but Nik grabbed me and lifted me up. He then followed Marcel back to the Abattoir. He needed to get me out of there. Jeremy trailed behind with Kol.
When we reached the Abattoir, Marcel were furious and threw things around.
"Go to him Nik. He needs you right now." I said and wiped away my tears. He kissed my forehead and put me down. Jeremy and Kol came and I stood there with them.
"That won't bring her back you know." Nik said calmly.
"This is your fault. I shouldn't have let you anywhere near her."
"Marcel.."
"The city was fine until you came. We were fine, Davina was safe, and she was in control. If you hadn't get her worked up and killed that boy." Marcel shouted at him.
"My condolences that the girl is gone but don't lose prospective. We still have our community, the vampires of this town."
"I don't care about the vampires. She is dead. Do you hear me?" When Marcel said it like that, I started to cry all over again.
"Get me out of here." I told Jeremy and Kol. They brought me back upstairs and to my bedroom.
I was numb. This was so wrong. Jeremy sat beside me the whole time.
"I don't want to be here right now. I need to get away."
Jeremy took something out of his jacket.
"Funny you should mention that." I looked up and saw the plane tickets Rebekah gave me for my birthday.
"What do you say about going back to Mystic Falls for a little while and see our sister?" I didn't need to think twice about it.
"I'm in. Let's go and meet our sister." I told him.
Jeremy ran to his room and started to pack.
"What are you waiting for? Go pack your bags, you're coming with." I told Kol.
Kol gave me the biggest smile ever and went to pack his own bag.
Whilst I was packing my bag, Nik came up to our room.
"What are you doing?" He asked me.
"I'm packing. Jeremy, Kol and I are going back to Mystic Falls for a while. I can't stay here right now. I need to see my friends and my sister."
I was expecting him to object and telling me not to go but he didn't. He only stopped me and embraced me.
"I don't want you to go, little wolf but I think you'll need this right now. After everything that happened tonight. I think it's a good idea that you go back and see your friends and your sister."
I had to battle with my tears again.
"Thank you, Nik. I love you so much." I told him and kissed him for a long time.
We wished to leave as soon as possible. Therefore, Nik told us that he would give us a ride out to the airport. He took my bag and grabbed my hand as we made our way downstairs. Jeremy and Kol were already waiting for us.
Just before I walked down to the garage, I saw Elijah standing there. I looked at Nik.
"I need to talk to him before I leave." I told him. Nik only nodded and walked to the garage so we could have some privacy.
I walked up to Elijah.
"Are you leaving?"
"Yes. Jeremy, Kol and I are going back to Mystic Falls for a while. I can't stay here right now. With Davina being gone. I just can't."
He didn't say anything.
"Are you ready to forgive me yet?" I asked him.
"It's not that easy Amy."
"Elijah, it was wrong of me to read your journals I know that. I should have come straight to you. I shouldn't have told Sophie about Celeste. It didn't work anyway but after all that happened today, why can't we get past this?"
"Of all people, you should know why. During my fever in the Bayou, you were inside my mind. You know what Celeste means to me."
"Don't you mean meant to you?" I asked carefully.
"No. Do you even know how rare love is? In a thousand years I have found but twice and when I have, I have honored it."
I looked away for a moment. I had to be careful with my words around him now.
"I know what a promise means to you Elijah but you made it 200 years ago. I'm not saying that it wasn't wrong of me to do it but I would never choose the dead over the living. So why are you?" He still didn't answer me.
"I'm sorry Elijah." I told him and kissed his cheek.
"Goodbye." I said and started to walk to the garage door. He suddenly grabbed my arm and spun me around to face him.
Once again he was standing way too close to me and he was about to kiss me but instead he kissed my forehead.
"Goodbye Amy. Stay safe." Then he was gone.
I closed my eyes for a second. This was getting out of hand. I shook it off and walked down to the others. I got in the front seat of the car and let out a sigh.
"Everything ok, love?" Nik asked me.
"I hope it is." I said looking at him. He knew this was hard for me.
It felt good to be able to go back to Mystic Falls for a while and it felt good to be on the plane.
I looked over at Kol and my brother who was arguing about some stupid game. I could see he was excited to see Elena and the others. He looked over at me.
"Sure you're fine, Amy?" He asked me.
"No, I'm not fine but I hope I will be again." I told him honestly. Kol opened his arm so that I could move in closer to him.
"I'll make sure you'll feel better. I promise you Darling."
"Thank you. Oh and promise me something else. Please don't try to kill my sister whilst we are there."
Kol chuckled at me and hugged me tight.
"For you darling. Anything."
The memory of Davina dying lingered in my mind but I was determent not to start crying again. I was going back home for a while.
Home.
Mystic Falls, here we come…This was yet another emotional chapter. I'm actually sitting here on the train to go back home, crying whilst writing this. I hope you all liked it and I will probably have the next chapter up after my next exam, which is on Tuesday. Then I will embrace the 100th episode of "The Vampire Diaries." It will be fantastic!
Until next time!

*grapejuice101: I love the bond between Amy and Davina myself. I really do ;) Hayley will make an appearance later on. I just don't know when.
*Loving-The-Originals: I like that Kol is such a good friend to Amy but I still want him to be a little like the old self that I know he can be. I like Davina/Amy connection too. I know. Nik screws up all the time but he's trying so hard. I think Amy must be the most forgiving person in the world.
*High Gaurdian: Haha. I will let you know, the shoe really hurts:p I Love the friendship between Kol and Jeremy. Bonnie is coming back in the next chapter! Woohoo!
*Shakilove: Haha. I assumed you liked it then. Good to know more of your reads the story.
*Sleiwd: Kol is baaaaaack! I love it! They are amazing, I know! Haha Finn doesn't count in anything :P Thank you for saying that! I feel like the writing goes better and better. I will tell you a little secret. For a few days, I had a little writer's block but then I get reviews like yours and it gives me new inspiration! So thank YOU for that! and thank you for the late birthday congratulation!
*plotzmichellemp: Amy and the baby is fine. She fainted due to all the stress in everything that is happening around her. I hope you think this update was fast enough ;)
*Anna.B: Thank you so much!
I love the scene with the dress as well. I wanted to bring it in so that it was authentic. I think that she didn't want to hurt him but she felt like she had too. I have to say, writing her confession was actually a little funny with her all rambling on and not getting anywhere. Kol is a great friend and I just had to write in a moment with him and Jeremy bonding over an Xbox game. I just had to… haha! So I think those two will become even greater friends as the story develops. I felt so bad for Amy when Davina died. I could have written more about the comfort but I thought this was a good way to get over to "The Vampire Diaries" mainly because Amy didn't want to be around everything that reminded her about Davina.
About our Enzo; Omg! I thought I was going to die when I saw that! Why did they have to do it like that? God!
Elijah's reaction to the witch thing. Well. He was hurt and actually being kind of a jerk when she wanted to talk to him to explain herself but I thought in the end when she apologized, it was so sweet. I know the Klaus moments are full of tension. That's why I started the chapter with some alone Klamy time. I just wanted them to have some loving moments together before everything went wrong. I love the man in the suit as well. So Amy got ill because of the stress. I thought about Elijah or Jeremy to find her but I wanted Klaus to do it. Glad you like it and continue to read it.
*Nicole: Glad you like it! I haven't thought about anything regarding Kol's past. If you have some good ideas, please let me know. It would be interesting to know. Maybe you could help me with it?
I hope that the friendship between Jeremy and Kol will stand. It would be fun for the both of them to go out and do something like that and then get a pissed off Amy or something.
Regarding Rebekah and her secret about Mikael; I really don't know yet. I have to figure it out somehow.
I want to bring Genevieve into the story, I just don`t know if I want her with Kol. She`s a great character, I just don`t like her that much but that can change in the future!
