Chapter 20

Sara knew where she was the instant she opened her eyes. She was back in the great hall that'd become the embodiment of her confusion. The witch hated this place. She always left with few answers and even more questions. She was always frustrated, but they gave her just enough so she'd be grateful. It was the worst mental torture she could imagine. The floor was made of diamond, it was transparent and beautiful. White marble made up the walls, where there were not windows. Weeping willows and weeping cherry blossom trees decorated the entire room. There was no ceiling, but the canopy of the trees allowed it to seem as if there was. There was a stream running across the back right corner, around it and thought the hall roamed animals. It was a kingdom built into nature, something from a fairy tale.

However at the head of the room stood six thrones. Each occupied. The thrones she understood over the years and their occupants were the elements. Fire, Earth, Wind, Water, Spirit, and Death. Each had a balance, and each had a place. It always surprised her how death was her favourite. He had a sense of humour where as the others didn't and he was always the one pushing them to be honest with her. The others mostly thought she needed to be humble in their presence and be grateful for what they'd done for her, but she simply made sarcastic comments to which the dark man laughed.

"Yay, more." She said to them. There was more sarcasm in those two words than most would deem possible. "So what's up with the mind reading thing?"

Ventus spoke. "You will be able to read the mind of any, with time quite easily. However, you will have a connection, with those you are bound too."

"I'm bound to the Puppy?" She shook her head and laughed a little.

"Yes." The simple answer came from the man on the thrown of plants. He was generally the calmest and rarely reacted to her antics.

"Well isn't that great. What the hell does being bound mean?" She locked eyes with Thanatos, or death. They'd all latched on to a version of their name over the years. He liked the way the Greeks said Death, Thanatos. She tried to stare him down so he'd tell her. Of course, starring down death, ya smart. Good thing she knew these six men quite well. The man on the black granite throne had a dark sense of humour she could relate to. He was by far her favourite.

"You are not ready." Eldur, the man surrounded by fire told her.

She took a step towards him. "Like hell I'm not! I'm just guessing here, but I think it'll be important to know soon. And I do not want to hop back here anytime soon! So just tell me!" She calmed down and smirked at Death. "I do enjoy seeing your beautiful face, but can you tell your siblings to cooperate." She winked at him. The others looked at her irritated and incredulous. She was literally flirting with Death.

Kol walked into the room. His elder brother had not left since the girl was placed there. She was his best friend and he knew she'd be fine. This wasn't the first time he'd seen or heard of one of her comas. Still, he worried deeply about the affect this had on the rest of his family, especially Elijah. The youngest male had taken to bringing Elijah things, such as new clothes or blood bags. He had never seen his brother in such a state. He was normally so composed. It was disconcerting to witness him so shaken. It was as if the foundation their family stood on, now replied upon this raven haired girl.

"'Lijah?" The vampire in question shot awake, looking around franctically. His expression dropped subtly upon seeing it was Kol not Sara that had woken him.

"Yes Kol?"

Kol handed him a garment bag and a placed a cooler by the foot of the bed. "Just brought your things for today." His brown eyes landed sadly on the girl in bed. "How is she?"

Elijah nodded, thanking his brother. He took the garment bag before returning his attention to the witch. "No change as of yet. She did glow blue for a little while and mumbled 'Thanatos'. Do you have any idea about that?"

Kol chuckled lightly. "Thanatos is what Death likes to be called. He's her favourite. The others are pretentious apparently." He smiled fondly down to his friend. He remember the first time she told him of the gods. he hadn't believed her. Kol thought it impossible that there were such beings. he had been alive long enough to believe he had seen everything. It also seemed surreal that no other witch he knew or had heard of, had ever had contact with them.

Elijah had nothing to say. They both stood there watching the girl that had weaselled her way into their family. Neither knew when she had become so integral to their lives, but were glad none the less that she had. They just wished she'd wake up.

Thanatos obliged her with a smirk, causing some of his brothers to glare. "Bonds come in different shapes. Bonds of family, rarely noticed but strong as steel. Bonds of a soulmate, just as strong and easily noticed, like another limb. Bonds of friendship can grow and evolve, or be cut without major damage. The bond you have with, as you call him, the Puppy, is the bond of a familiar."

She stared at him in shock. "The hell? Like a witches familiar, like a cat?!"

"In a sense, yes. He is meant to protect you, and you to protect him. You can draw on each other's strength. H is meant to help you become stronger. You also have a bond with the eldest. You tied your lives together and as such if either dies, the other will be damaged. We have never seen this bond before and do not know what to expect. You used your blood, his blood and his family to link you. It is almost as powerful as the link to your familiar or future soulmate, the second eldest. Any of their deaths would cause you great pain and yours in turn would nearly kill them."

Sara didn't know how to handle this news. She sat there on the ground, where she'd collapsed, thinking, for what felt like an eternity. It very well could have been as time moved differently there than at home. "What does that mean if we're injured?" She finally asked.

Roho answered her, "Your soulmate will mend your heart, your familiar will protect you and strengthen your magic, and your shadow as far as we can tell will be effective in mending your body."

Sara did not look up, she did not speak, she simply thought about it all. "What am I?" Her voice sounded broken. It touched the ancient hearts of the men watching her. They'd grown very fond of her over the years, much like a niece to them. They would never admit this or allow any one to see it. Earth answered her, as he wished to bring her some peace. "You are the last of an ancient race. They were killed off, but we saw fit to imbue yourself with their abilities. You were worthy. You were needed."

Sara nodded and understood it was time. She sat for a moment, taking the deep calming breathes she needed to absorb what she had heard. It changed so many things. She would have never guessed that she'd be linked to two, potentially three of the Originals. It was an insane fate to accept. With how the blood spell worked on Finn it is not insurmountable to believe she may have a subtle bond with both Rebekah and Kol as well. Not to mention the consequences if Finn and Sage blood shared.

So many things had changed in such a short period of time.

None of which she was comfortable with.

Eventually, she accepted there was nothing more to learn here. Sara raised herself up. She nodded to each of the men in front of her, before turning and walking off. To her surprise a glistening silver wolf had been seated beside her the entire time she was on the ground. It walked beside her to the door, and nudged her hand with its head. There was probably something to be read into that. Although, there wasn't enough space in her brain to even start thinking about what it could be.

She pushed the door open and walked out. Her eyes flew open in the real world.

"Sarafina?" A voice beside her pleaded. There was worry and fear laced heavily in the one word. She turned her head to meet his eyes. She was struck by a sounded jolt of electricity and light shot out into the room. It decided quickly and wrapped around the two. Her eyes locked with Elijah and she pulled him forcefully towards her.

Their lips locked in a passionate kiss. They'd both been craving this moment. He adjusted himself so her was blanketing her. The sight before him took his breath away. Her eyes danced every colour imaginable and a few he'd never seen. The air around them crackled and reflected the colours in her eyes. With a flick of her wrist their clothes were on the floor. All that separated them were their undergarments. "I missed you, my dear." She whispered to him.

He thought he was alone in his feelings. He was so drawn to her it required tremendous willpower to not be touching her every moment of the day. He did not know how it came about, or why, but he could never leave her. Of that he was sure. "Do not leave me again."

"I vow to never leave you, if it is within my power to stay." She did her best to reassure him. It was obvious how shaken he was and she hated seeing him like this.

She pulled him to her and devoured his mouth with her own. She flipped them over so she could appreciate the man beneath her. His body was sculpted by God himself and she loved the way it felt as she ran her hands up and down it. She was reaching to undo her bra when the door flung open.

"Well I see you're both very much up. Get dressed!" Kol laughed while closing the door.

Sara collapsed onto Elijah with a groan. "It its wrong to kill him?"

"Yes!" They heard Kol shout from outside.

I'd like to thank heena6126 for the idea of seeing how some of them reacted while she was in the coma. I also need to thank everyone else for their amazing reviews. You are amazing guys, thank you!

I hope you enjoyed this chapter.
