Kol awoke as the sunlight blared into his eyes. Turning his head he saw Dawn; pushing her hair from her bare shoulders he kissed her neck. Moving his arms under the covers he wrapped them around her stomach and then rested his chin on her shoulders. She grumbled as she awoke.

"Is it morning already?" She stretched and then turned around to look into his eyes. He stroked her cheek as she smiled.

"I love you"

She kissed his lips before sitting up to see the damage. Furniture broken, dents in the wall and many of the feather pillows burst. She covered her mouth with her fingers, she didn't recall doing this much damage, but she guessed she was lost in the moment. She got out of bed and searched around the house naked, where did she put her clothes? Giving up on the search she grabbed one of Kol's shirts and put it on before returning to him. He smirked as she re-entered the destroyed bedroom of the cabin.

"What?"

"Nothing! Anyway we best get back; I cannot keep you captive forever"

She flopped on top of him and stroked his chest whilst he spoke. She buried her face into his neck and closed her eyes as he wrapped his arms around her.

"I wish you could…" He laughed at her and then kissed her forehead.

"Klaus isn't going to be happy about us destroying the cabin" She began to giggle and then pecked his lips before getting up again.

Tidying the house a little more they then got dressed and slowly walked back to the mansion, who knew how long it'd be before they were alone again?

Aluesa was in a deep sleep as they entered the house, her books opened and resting against her chest. As they walked into the room laughing she jumped out of her skin, the books falling to her feet.

"Aluesa it's alright it's just us" Aluesa rubbed her eyes as she stood up and stretched. "What's all this about?"

Using her powers Dawn returned the books to their rightful place and then rested against Kol's chest. Aluesa searched through the array of pillows and picked up her phone, putting it on loud speaker she played Elijah's voicemail.

"Elijah asked me if there was any ways of detecting magic, as this Marcel is trialling witches who perform spells. An entire city banned from doing magic, the supernatural city as well! But there was nothing, it must be a device of sorts? And it must be recently made? I'd guess it'd be similar to the Gilbert Device but I cannot be sure"

Dawn flopped onto the seat beside her and fell into deep and angry thoughts; who'd dare mistreat witches? This hatred of vampires that mistreated witches grew as she thought of her little brother. She looked towards Kol curiously.

"Kol didn't you live in New Orleans in the early 20th century?"

"Yes…until Klaus daggered me…why?"

She smirked cheekily as she stood up and began to walk towards the stairs.

"I think a little trip is in order…don't you?"

Annabelle lay flat on her bed; she was still waiting for death. Although she had been consuming small amounts of blood she didn't see the point. The door burst open as Dawn leapt onto her little sister.

"Guess whose back!" Belle wriggled as Dawn poked at her sides. "Get up and pack! We're going to New Orleans!"

As she walked back to the door her little sister stared in shock.

"How? What? Is Aluesa going?"

"I'll tell you on the journey…and no she's not. There's an anti-witch vampire there who needs some lessons on respect. Are you in?"

"What's in it for me?"

"Erm…New Orleans is the vampire city! We'll do what we used to in the good old days…party and feed excessively. Oh! And when I get what I want and it takes me to Amber…I'll let you do the honours."

Annabelle's mouth dropped at the possibilities of how to kill Amber, and the havoc she'd be allowed to create. Before Dawn could say another word Bell was packing; small towns weren't fun for vampires who liked to party.

"Isn't New Orleans where Klaus and Elijah are?" Dawn smirked at her sister and leaned against the doorframe.

"Yup. But they don't know where going there. I suspect that they've gone there for another reason, and I intend to find out. But that and finding the device is just between you, me and Aluesa"

Annabelle nodded in response but was too absorbed in the plans and aspects of making the entrance with her sister. Whoever this vampire was in New Orleans, he was in trouble, the two witch hybrids were coming.

Dawn returned downstairs and to her family, her parents knew of her return but decided to keep out of her way. They knew she had a job to do, and they didn't want to get in the way. George and Elizabeth were curled up in front of the fire as their eldest daughter continued to read grimoires.

"Me, Kol and Belle are going to New Orleans. There may be some leads to Amber there"

Aluesa put out her bottom lip as she wanted to join them, but her younger sister just smiled and shook her head.

"As much as I'd want you to be there with us I'm not risking your life! I need you to stay here and pop out some Cassadra witches" Aluesa threw a pillow across the room at her.

"Why are you suddenly all concerned about the fate of our kind?"

"Maybe because I met the original Cassadra!" Aluesa frowned with jealousy

"That's not fair!"

"Girls be quiet! Argue later when we cannot hear you!"

Their mother silenced them of the conversation but Dawn just smirked as her sister grumbled. With a few bangs on the staircase they knew Belle was coming down, she always made a racket when she was excited.

"I'll phone you when I get there. Can you try and find out who this Marcel is for me?"

"Yes whatever…" Replied Aluesa; still showing her annoyance that her sisters were going to New Orleans and that Dawn had met the original Cassadra.

Within minutes they were on the road, pumped with adrenalin as the prospects and dreams hit them. Despite the two women's enthusiasm, Kol however had mixed feelings. He was returning to somewhere he loved with the love of his life, but it was also the place where he was daggered. Deep down he couldn't wait to surprise his brother, and even have a break and let lose like he used to.

Let the blood commence.

A/N- Next chapter will be from my one-shot. Let me know what you think so far and what your thoughts on how the story's going! Also any suggestions on what they should do when they get there; whether it be letting lose and being true ruthless vampires or keep to their current subtle ways. Tell me what you think.
