"Mikael will you punish Finn?" Mother asked. Mikael smiled, grabbed Finn by the back of his shirt and dragged Finn to Finn's room. "Dahlia will you take Rebekah?" Aunt Dahlia dragged me to my room. There she sat down and I laid over her lap.

She smacked me once before smacking me again. Then she started up a rhythm. "You do know that had you not put yourself in their fight, that they might not have fought that much?" She asked me. I nodded.

"Yes Aunt Dahlia."

"And you do know if you hadn't inserted yourself into their fight that you wouldn't be in trouble right now?"

"Yes Aunt Dahlia." I yelped as the smacks became painful. Truth be told, I'd rather Niky be doing this… Niky doesn't tend to care that much. But when he does, it hurts! I first learned that back when I was going to school in Mystic Falls. He's signed me into school, pretending to be my father.

"Then you know what you did was wrong?" She asked. I started to cry as the swats became harder.

"Yes Aunt Dahlia." I cried.

"Then please tell why you did it?" The smacks were really hurting now.

"Because I don't like how Finn was treating Kol, making it look like Kol's fault! It just really makes me mad." I sobbed. Aunt Dahlia pulled me to my feet and hugged me as I cried. Unlike my brothers, I wasn't doing it to spite my siblings, I just wanted to defend my brother Kol from my brother Finn.

Soon she led me out of the room and I noticed Finn, Niky, and Kol were all being brought out as well. We were silent and the first to speak was Mikael.

"Well Finn?"

"Father-" Finn whined. But at the look Mikael gave him, he shut up. "Kol, I apologize for my behaviour. Can you forgive me?"

"Yes. And I mean it sincerely this time Finn." Kol replied. "I am also sorry." Kol said. "For lying about forgiving you earlier, and fighting with you instead of talking it out."

"Thank you. I do forgive you Kol." Finn said, giving him a sweet smile. Niky scoffed. We were silent again, and again Mikael was the one to talk.

"What about Rebekah?" He asked Finn.

"Rebekah, I'm sorry for my behaviour, can you forgive me?"

"If you can forgive me. I'm sorry for hurting you Finn."

"I forgive you, Rebekah." We smiled.

"And Niklaus." Mikael ordered. Finn grew obstinate at this demand. Though when Mikael made to grab Finn, Finn quickly apologized.

"I'm sorry Niklaus." Niky stared at him. Finn repeated himself. "I am sorry, Niklaus." Niky gave him a smile.

"Surprising to hear a real apology from you, Finn." Niky smirked. "I accept your apology."

"Isn't there something you'd like to say to your brother?"

"Ah! Yes. Finn, I apologize for fighting you."

"Thank you Niklaus. I accept your apology."
