I HOPE YOU ARE ENJOYING THE STORY SO FAR
Just as night began to fall, Klaus started to stir feeling fully at peace, than he remembered all he had to do that night, he could not believe the fact that he had actualy fell asleep with the task that awaited them all that evening, but he had to admit that hes baby vampire did give him a run for hes money when it came to tiring him out, although he also had to admit that the relaxation he felt came from deeper inside than just physical release, it came from the fact that after 1000 years with only hes siblings by hes side, he had finaly found somebody that sincerly cared for him,the words she had said to him engraved in hes mind forever, she was willing to stay by his side, accepting all hes past sins and hes flaws. The connection he had with her was unbreakable, never would he feel like this if it wasnt with her, but that ofcourse was ot a thing he would not admit to anybody, after all he had many enemys and hes feelings for Caroline were a weakness that could be used against him. She started to wake up and opened one eye looking up at him, he looked at her with her hair a mess allover the pillow and a sleepy sexy look in her eyes and she looked so enticing to him, she leaned in to kiss him softly and put her arms around him, loving the feeling that just being there with him gave her, she kissed him again and this time Klaus deepened the kiss and pulled her closer, and once again they both fell victims of the uncontrolable passion that enveloped their very beings, they would never tire of eachother, the hunger they felt for eachother, they both knew would last for as long as they lived, and being vampires that was eternity. Afterwards they both sat in Klauses tub and Klaus was surprised to find himself lathering her blonde locks and softly washing her back. She turned around and kissed him fiercly wishing they could stay for ever like this, but being the eternal responsable control freak she was, she knew they had to get on with the ritual, She kissed him a little longer and when she heard him slightly moan, she flashed out of the tub and into the shower to rinse her hair, then she blew him a kiss put on hes bathrobe and wooshed to her room to get ready, he was left there in the tub laughing at the way she teased him. Later on in the main room everybody was ready and going over last details. Stefan was sat very close to Rebekah, and Bonnie looked at him in a knowing way, he just shrugged, and even though she wasnt a fan of the original sister, she had to admit that Stefan had been to hell and back and deserved to be happy, even if it was with Rebekah, and she saw a change in him lately and she admitted begrudgingly it was thanks to Rebekah. Elijah was stood in the corner with Hayley, muttering to her and not hes usual calm self.
-"Bonnie I would like you to answer something for me"
-"Shoot"
-"Is it posible in anyway that Hayley can stay here protected from the amount of magic that is going to be released this evening"
-"No Im sorry but she has to be there, she is the source of the babys blood"
-"But surely if its just the blood we can take a vial of it without having to endanger her or the child"
-You dont understand, the baby is the main ingredient, for want of a better word, in this spell, and Klaus and Hayley are responsable for its existence and the unique cross of all known existing races, human and wolf from Hayley, Vampire wolf and witch from Klaus, They need to be there, along with you and Rebekah as your mother descendents and ofcourse Sophie and me to be guided by Esther through the whole ritual"
-"Well little wolf I advise you to stay by my or Elijahs side the whole time so I can rest assured that my child is safe"
-"Humphh father of the year"
Sophie was sat very quietly thinking that even with loopholes in spells and rituals, power never just dissapeared, like energy, it went from one place to another and being magic it went from one witch to another after passing through the earth, and once the Original Witch, regained her power from the imposters, she would have to pass it on to somebody, seeing as she was dead, and her being the only witch would be the one to absorb it, she couldnt believe the vast amount of power she would wield, and oh boy she couldnt wait, she would show them all. They all left for the site where Esthers remains were buried and at Bonnies instructions stood in a circle around the gravesite. Klaus saw Bonnie concentrating and looking into space...
-"I take it youre here mother, I just hope this isnt one of you plans to end us, because you will only fail, and I will find someway to make your purgatory seem like heaven compared to what you will experience in a diferent type of hell"
-"She said to tell you (Calm down Niklaus I am here to help you as you will soon see)"
Bonnie started to empty a sack of salt to design a pentagram on the floor above the gravesite, while she was calmly giving sophie instructions to make other symbols, two were the sign of vampires, where Elijah and Rebekah would stand, one was the sign for the hybrid, the other was the sign of the wolf and directly in the middle was the sybol of the witch. Caroline and Stefan just stood back and watched both admiring the way Bonnie took charge of the situation. Bonnie made everybody take their places handing each a dagger to cut thier hands with when the time came.
-"Shes telling me what you have to chant, Sophie you have to be sure to pronounce just as I do, and when THe blood is drawn you have to throw Celestes amulet into the centre of the circle. Are you ready?"
-"Yes lets do this..."
-"Repeat after me..dimitte me virtus a deceptoribus. Te spiritus, omnes recti merentis dare posse. libera manu mea, et sanguinem Filii mei offertur.. dimitte me virtus a deceptoribus. Te spiritus, omnes recti merentis dare posse. libera manu mea, et sanguinem Filii mei offertur.."
Sophie repeated the words and entered some kind of trance, repeating the same words over and over, all of a sudden the pentagram came alive in flames and under Esthers influence, Bonnie shouted NOW, each person cut their palm and let their blood flow onto their respective symbols and then Sophie threw Celestes amulet into the center of the pentagram and it exploded in mid air, its turqouise coulored stone falling in the center of the witches symbol, all felt a rush of power travel through them like nothing they had experienced before, Sophie came out of her trance, and all of a sudden an image appeared in the middle of the pentagram where the amulet had exploded, and their stood a cloudy image of Esther.
-"My children I am solely responsable for creating you and then I tried to end you, but now I have learned things and the fact that the spirits have allowed this child to exist means it will exist for some reason I have no knowledge of, for nature as made a miracle"
The three originals stood there mesmerized by the cloudy vision of their mother and the sound of her voice.
-Niklaus, I ask you to forgive me, I should have protected you from Mikael, from all the hurt you have suffered, for if I would have you would not have ever become so ruthless, but rest assured my beatiful blue eyed boy youre redemption will come and you will feel the love you were denied."
Klaus had tears in hes eyes at listening to those words.
-"My noble Elijah, you have been a father to youre siblings and I am very proud of the way you have always stood by them and kept them united against all odds"
-"My beatiful sweet Rebekah, My only daughter,I am so sorry, and just know this youre karma will change, you will fianly be able to feel at peace"
-"And now my last gift to you all before I finaly go to a peacefull resting place, after 1000 years of being trapped on the other side. Bennett witch come closer please. Bonnie moved closer and Esther beckoned her to enter the pentagram"
Sophie was just waiting impatiently wanting to recieve all that power that this so called Celeste had stole. Bonnie entered the pentagram and stood facing Esther who retrieved the stone from the amulet that had survived the explosion and touched bonnies forehead with her left hand and then with her right hand and holding the stone she touched Bonnies heart, and started chanting in a language not even the originals understood, Bonnie started to writhe and scream in pain, but nobody could move to help her, all were stuck in their positions, Caroline was trying so hard to move to get to her friend but all her attempts were for nothing, Stefan stood wide eyed and hayley and the originals seemed to be in a trance again, their hands still dripping blood. Then another image appeared in the Pentagram and Elijah even in his tranced state recognized her to be Celeste, but in her true form, just like when they had been together 200 years ago, Celeste was surprised to have been brought here and didnt understand what was happening, Esther took her hand away from Bonnies forehead and placed it on the Celestes heart, the three of them were linked and the three started to tremble, Esther still chanting and both Bonnie and Celeste sreaming in pain, then there was a flash of light and the flames of the pentagram soared higher. Then all of a sudden the fire just went out Bonnie fell to the ground her eyes completly white and Celeste fell too her eyes completly black, both were unconscious.
-" Do not fear, what I have done is gave Bonnie the recompensation she deserves for all she has done in the past, it seems that all the good she has done in the past, holds more weight with the spirits than the dark expression she used manipulated by Silus, Celeste also has what she deserves, after impersonating others and stealing their lives for two centurys, she will not be able to harm anybody again. The young Bennett witch as returned to her original self, she is once more a witch, and Celeste is now rendered powerless and is now the anchor. But I must warn you it is not over, your enemys are now weakened, but they have in their possesion a weapon that could make even you you Niklaus victim of the worst agony imaginable, barely conscious and feeling only pain..."
And all of a sudden she was not there, they were all left mesmerized in the smoke and ash that was blowing around them, Caroline was the first to react and she ran to Bonnie, who was still unconscious, Caroline could hear she had a normal heartbeat and figured she was just exhausted by the trauma of what had just happened to her. Klaus walked over to Carolines side and picked Bonnie up gently in hes arms, feeling a deep respect for the bravery of the young witch.
-"Lets all go home shall we, and celebrate our victory. Then tomorrow its back to business, I want that weapon and I want Bastiana and Genevieve dead"
Everybody was silent and followed Klaus home, Rebekah was silent and glassy eyed, she couldnt believe she had saw her mother again, and that her mother did afterall still love her. Elijah was fussing over hayley and her cut palm, that had started to heal already, her babys blood healing her mother from the inside. Stefan just walked by Rebekahs side and held her hand, looking at her and nodding, letting her know he was there if she needed him. They just left Celeste there on the floor in the middle of the fading pentagram. When they got home Klaus took Bonnie to her room and left Caroline there with her waiting for her to come to, then he went downstairs finding Elijah in the study quite shaken up. Rebekah had retired to her rooms.
-"So Elijah what do you think about all that occured this evening, I for one am still reeling at the fact that mother swooped in to save the day, last time we saw her she was plotting our demise"
-"I know I am surprised also Niklaus and I have to admit quite taken avack at all that happened tonight"
-"I take it you saw that Hayley was well before she retired"
-"Yes rest assured that both mother and child are fine,such a strong heartbeat the child has"
-"Yes I know she is going to be something else"
-"I also cant seem to discern what mother meant when she refered to the child as being the most powerful being to exist, that fact worries me intensly, you know she will be targeted by many until she is of an age that she will be able to harness that power and use it correctly"
-Yes Elijah, believe it or not, I also worry about my daughter, but I also know we will all protect her with our lives as a family, always and forever"
-"Another matter is fretting in my mind, the weapon mother refered to, if it can put you down Niklaus, it must hold a vast amount of power, and it has been astutly made, by somebody that knows there is no way to kill you, but by what mother said, the effects would be worse than death"
-Yes I know but in war you have to win various battles, one has been won, and now in the ones that follow we will also come out as the victors. I will not permit any pesky little ghosty witch to use any kind of weapon on me, when I get my hands on them, they will wish they never left the hell they were in because I plan to give them pain and agony and kill them slowly, I shall feed off them, break every bone in their bodies, then I shall heal them and start again and again until I am bored"
-I"m very sure youre vengeance will be very coulorful Niklaus"
They heard a commotion in the courtyard and both went out to see what was going on at such a late hour. And there stood Marcel with a conscious but obviously exhausted Davina cradled in hes arms.
-"I waited at the graveyard and I heard her stiring inside the tomb I ripped it open and there she was, but she seems to be in shock or something"
Rebekah appeared in the courtyard and she inmediatly took control of the situation.
-"Oh just bloody move you idiot, give her to me, the girl as been niether dead nor alive for the past two months, she needs warmth, and rest, uhhh males a such a useless race"
She took Davina out of Marcels arms and took her upstairs to the room she had stayed in before the harvest ritual went so wrong, she put her into bed and covered her in heavy blankets, left a lamp on next to the bed and sat on a chair next to her so that she wouldnt be alone when she awakened. Marcel was downstairs with Klaus and Elijah in the main room, Klaus served him a drink, and felt sorry for hes protegee sat there on a chair nervously stamping hes feet.
-"Calm down Marcel, shes back thats all that matters"
-"I had my doubts of Davina coming back, Celeste was rendered powerless but she did not die"
-"Elijah I think its logical reasoning that to be an anchor to the otherside she is in no way alive"
-"Bonnie was alive Niklaus"
-Bonnie croossed from the otherside and became the anchor and came back to the living, maybe Celeste being alive... she had to pass over to the dead to be the anchor"
-"Why do you guys think that Davina was the one to come back when you ended Celeste, I mean Davina was the last one to die out of the four girls that were sacrificed"
-"Well Marcel I reckon that each imposter took one of the girls places, and obviously my brothers choice in women has never been good, so Celeste being a manipulating evil bitch obviously took Davinas place, because as you well remember, at the time of her death Davina had an incredible amount of power, so much it was literaly pouring out of her"
-"Well I for one am going to rest for night for one does not know what to expect tomorrow to bring, Goodnight Niklaus, Marcel."
-"Goodnight Elijah sleep tight"
Said Klaus in quite high spirits seeing how things were turning out. Marcel left the main room and went to Davinas room and told Rebekah to go and rest.
-"I dont want her to wake up alone Marcel, after all the poor girl has been through"
-"I want to stay Rebekah, I want to be here when she wakes up, I didnt manage to keep her alive and now shes back I need to be here when she comes to."
-"But do you think you have good enough bedside manners to assist a traumatized girl back from the dead?"
-"Rebekah stop being so stubborn will you, I know all that happened tonight and I know you and that you are probably emotionaly messed up, you just dont want to sleep because its all to much to take in, seeing youre mother and all."
-Yes I admit you are right, and I also admit you know me even better than my brothers, who by the way have not even bothered to ask how I am, Nik is probably still just plotting on how he can rule the world and Elijah as always is by hes side."
-"Rebekah, just relax, accept the fact youre mother is sorry for the hurt she caused you, she did love you and even in death managed to save us all from whatever Celeste had planned for us."
-"Its just a lot to take in."
-"Hey go and find youre new boytoy and let Mr Salvatore keep you occupied, Im sure he can keep your mind of everything"
. She playfully punched him in the arm and laughed then she went to her rooms and there was Stefan sat reading on her bed.
-"You okay?"
-"Yes Im just still in awe by the fact I saw my mother"
-"You wanna talk about it?"
-"NO I dont just make me forget for tonight, Ill deal with it in the morning"
She moved closer to him and kissed him, in an instant she had forgot all her woes and was lost in the pleasure of having Stefan her in her bed to console sat anxiously by Bonnies side waiting for her to wake up, Klaus walked in to the room and asked if she needed anything, she said no that she just wanted Bonnnie to wake up, he left the room and went to hes own rooms, feeling lonely when he realized it was the first night in many he would sleep alone. Marcel was just like caroline waiting for Davina to wake up.
