The Originals
3 day ago at the same day as the senior prom in Mystic falls.
Jane-Ann Deveraux and her little sister Sophie was walking in a cemetery in New Orleans.
"Don`t do this. What if I`m wrong about her?" Sophie looked scared and terrified.
"That`s the beauty of you. You`re never wrong. She`s the only way we`re gonna get to Klaus."
"Can`t we get someone else to do the spell?"
"Who? Half the witches don`t believe you, the other half`s to scared." Jane-Ann told her sister.
"Because they know we`re going to get caught Jane-Ann."
"We don`t have any other options, Sophie. Katherine Pierce gave us the last thing we needed and we`re doing this spell." Jane-Ann told her sister and held up a strain of golden hair.
That was the night I felt so dizzy.
Klaus and I walked in the street of New Orleans three days later. We just got here and now I wanted to see the spectacle that is New Orleans. I was awed the city was beautiful. Klaus and I were standing in the oldest part of the city, the oldest neighborhood, Bourbon Street in the French quarter. You could almost feel the magic in this place. I noticed a tour guide showing some people around the city.
"Welcome to the dark side of New Orleans. A supernatural playground. Where the living is easily lost and the dead stick around to play."
I watched as the group past us and walked further down the street.
"If the only knew." I mumble.
"Do you like it?" Klaus whispered in my ear. I grabbed a hold of his arm.
"Are you kidding me? I love it here! Why haven`t we been here earlier?" Klaus laughed a little at me and kissed me.
"I`m glad you like it. This is my home, Amy. I helped built this city." I could see the sparkles in his eyes.
"Then show me your city then." I told him as he led me down the street. We were looking for someone.
I loved the smells and the crowds of people going on with their lives with nothing to care about and nothing to lose.
Klaus walked over to a bunch of fortunetellers but he was looking for one particular. He scanned the premises and locked eyes on one even I could tell was the real deal. A witch. We walked over to her and he sat down.
"Good afternoon. Time for one more?" Klaus said with a smile.
"I have nothing to say to you." The witch looked terrified.
"Oh, that`s not very amiable is it? You don`t even know me."
"I know what you are. Half vampire, half beast. You`re the hybrid."
"I`m the original hybrid actually but that`s a long story for another time. I`m looking for someone, a witch. Perhaps you might be able to help me find her. Jane-Ann Deveraux."
Even I could see her shifting and acting strange.
"Sorry I don`t know." She lied.
"Well, that`s not true is it? You see, I know you`re a true witch amongst those sea of posers. So enough with the fabrications. I`ve got quite the temper." I put my hand on his shoulder to let him know not to terrify the poor woman even more.
"Witches don`t talk out of school in the Quarter. The vampires won`t allow it. Those are the rules. I don`t break Marcel`s rules." She was clearly scared. Not of Klaus but of this Marcel.
"Marcel`s rules. Where do you suppose I might find Marcel?"
After our talk with the witch, Klaus took my hand and brought me to an old pub with music blasting from inside.
"Nik. Who is Marcel?" I asked him as we walked inside. Klaus looked around a little bit and suddenly locked eyes on someone.
"Him." He simply said and pointed up at the little stage. An Afro-American man with beautiful features were standing on stage singing karaoke. Everyone around him was cheering him on and he loved the attention. He thought he owned the place. Klaus only looked at him like he`d seen a ghost. When Marcel was finished with his singing, he joined his friends to grab a drink. Then he looked over to us. I didn`t like it.
"Klaus." He said informative.
"Marcel." Klaus looked at little conflicted.
"It must be a hundred years since that nasty business with your papa." Marcel said and walked a little closer to us. I shuttered at the thought of Mikael.
"Has it been that long?" Klaus asked and took a few steps forward. I trailed not so far behind him. This place freaked me out.
"I recall he ran you out of town. Left a trail of dead vampires in his way."
"And yet how fortunate that you managed to stay alive. My father I`m afraid has been incinerated to dust."
When Klaus said that all of Marcel`s minions got up to protect him.
Klaus stood real close to Marcel now.
"If I knew you were coming back in town. If I`d had a heads up."
"What Marcel? What would you have done?"
"I would have thrown you a damn parade." Then they started laughing and hugging each other. What is it with men?
"Niklaus Mikaelson. My mentor, my savior, my sire. Let`s get you a drink." Klaus reached out for me.
"And who is this little beauty? Another pet of yours?" Marcel asked Klaus. I felt my anger boil.
"I wouldn`t say that if I were you." She doesn`t like that." Klaus warned.
"No, I really don`t so don`t ever say that again. I`m Amy Gilbert." I took out my hand for him to shake.
"Marcel Gerard and welcome to the French Quarter." He flashed his biggest smile. I didn`t like him.
We were brought out in the back to a private table and Marcel poured bourbon to the both of us. I only smelled mine and felt disgusted. I just put it down again.
"It`s good to see you." Marcel said and sat on the opposite side of the table.
"It`s good to be home. Although please tell me the current state of Bourbon street is not your doing?" Klaus asked him.
"Something`s got to drawn in the out of towners. Otherwise we`d all go hungry."
Klaus looked around and noticed something.
I see your friends are daylight walkers." Klaus stated.
"Yeah. I shared the secret of your daylight ring with a few friends. Just the inner circle though. Family."
"Tell me. How did you find a witch willing to make daylight rings?"
"I got the witches here wrapped around my little finger."
"Is that so? I`m looking for a witch by the name Jane-Ann Deveraux. She has some business with me." Klaus said.
"You`re looking for Jane-Ann? Then you probably want to come with me. Showtime." Marcel told him. They finished their drinks and stood up. Klaus took my hand and I stood up, I felt dizzy again.
"Are you alright, love?" He asked me concerned.
"Yeah. Just a little dizzy again, that`s all." Klaus put his arm around my waist and we followed the others outside. It was already dark out and vampires everywhere. For the first time, I felt a little unsafe with vampires around me. They were so many.
"How`s your family?" Marcel asked him.
"Those who live hate me more than ever but Rebekah and Elijah is quite fond of Amy."
"Don't forget. If you`re blood relation let you down, you make your own. You thought me that." Marcel said to him.
"What`s mine is yours as always." Some vampires suddenly stood on the roof. Scared the crap out of me.
"Even my nightwalkers, the riff raff." Marcel took a branch from one of the trees.
I took a good grip on Klaus` hand.
"I don`t like this." I told him.
"You`ll be fine love. No one will hurt you." Klaus gave my hand a squeeze.
All the vampires gathered around in a big huddle and cheered. A woman, who had her hands tied up, was brought forward to Marcel. She didn`t look scared just annoyed.
"Jane-Ann Deveraux! Give it up for Jane-Ann."
"Jane-Ann Deveraux. You`ve been accused of the practice of witchcraft beyond the bound of the rules set forth and enforced by me. How do you plead? Oh.." Marcel ran back to Klaus and me.
"Was that convincing? I studied law back in the 50`s. Hold that though." Then he turned to Jane-Ann again.
"Seriously. Jay tick tock. You know the drill. How do you plead?"
"I didn`t do anything."
"That`s a lie. You know it. I know it and you hate that I know it. It drives you witches crazy that I`m aware of your every move. That you can`t do magic in this town without being caught. So why don`t we cut to the chase. You tell me what magic you`re brewing." Jane- Ann looked over at us. Mostly at me. It made my stomach turn a little.
"If you just tell me, I`ll grant you mercy. I am a merciful man after all." Jane-Ann looked at me one more time before answering Marcel.
"Rot in hell you monster." She spat.
"I`ll tell you what. I`ll give you one more chance." Marcel said with an evil grin. I knew what was coming and buried my face in Klaus` shoulder. I didn`t want to watch it. I could hear the branch used as a whip, slicing her throat open. I could hear her fall on the ground and vampires cheering around me.
"Or not." Marcel said and started laughing. Klaus noticed me shaking and held on to me, stroking my hair. I wanted to get out of there. I didn`t want ti see her dead body just lying on the ground and nobody that cared about her at all.
Klaus let go of me to talk to Marcel and he was a little angry.
"What was that?" Klaus asked and grabbed Marcel.
"Hey, hey. Walk with me. The witches aren`t allowed to do magic around here and she broke the rules."
"I told you I wanted to talk to her." Klaus said and then they were too far away for me to hear them.
I walked up to Jane-Ann`s body. I felt so bad for her. She probably had her own family. All the other vampires walked away but Klaus stood behind.
"Are you ok, Love?" He asked me.
"She didn`t deserve this, Nik. Marcel only did this to show power and that`s wrong." I felt my tears threatening to escape.
"Come here, little wolf." Klaus held me in him arms.
I snuggle against him.
"Let`s go and find her sister. Shall we?" I nodded and let him lead me away from Jane-Ann`s body.
We got to this bare in the French Quarter. In the back, a girl on my age maybe a few years older stood chopping food and she was crying. She turned around when she saw us.
"You`re Klaus." She stated.
"I am and you`re upset. Sophie isn`t it? I assume this is because what I just witnessed with your sister on the corner of Royal and St. Ann?"
"Did you enjoy the show?" Sophie asked without any emotion.
"A little melodramatic for my taste. What did your sister want with me? Why did Marcel kill her?"
Sophie was about to answer when two vampires came in.
"I see you brought friends." Both Klaus and I turned around.
"They`re not with me."
"They`re with Marcel. That`s all that matters. I know you built this town but this is his town now. He killed my sister because she broke the rules. So I take to you in front of them, I`m next." Sophie went back to cutting food.
Klaus went over to the two vampires at the bar. I stood still.
"Hey, Sophie? I`m so sorry for your loss. I know how it is to lose a family member. I just lost my own brother. It`s not easy but you`ll get it. Somehow." I gave her a little smile.
"Thank you, Amy." She said. I then walked over to Klaus. Wait. How did she know my name? I turned around but she was gone. I shook my head and looked at Klaus.
"If either of you follow me again, you`ll do so without the benefit of a spine!" The bartender, a blonde-haired person came up to them.
"Sorry for the wait. If you`re here for the Gumbo, I`m about to break your hearts. We just ran out." Klaus only smiled at put a 100-dollar bill on the counter.
The oldest scotch you`ve got for my two friends here." The bartender took the money and walked to get it.
Klaus tightened the grip on the two vampires.
"Marcel wants to know what I`m up to, he can ask me himself." With that, he let them go and he grabbed my hand and took me out of there. I was still wondering how Sophie knew my name. What was I missing?
3- Person p.o.v
Sophie went out back in the alley behind the bar. She was a little pissed and hurt about her sister being dead. She lit a candle and allowed herself to cry for her sister. Then the door behind her slammed shut, making her jump. She knew she wasn`t alone. Then one of the vampires from inside stood in front of her.
"The doors works you know." She told him.
"Are you doing magic?" The other one asked appeared beside her.
"I`m praying for my dead sister. Go ahead. Pay your respects." Sophie turned around to walk back inside but one of them stopped her.
"Don`t make this a thing Sophie. The hybrid was looking for Jane-Ann and Marcel wants to know why."
"Oh, that sounds like witch business. I`d say ask her yourself but I guess you can`t since Marcel killed her." Sophie turned away from him and he attacked her but before he could sink his teeth in, he was gone. Both Sophie and the other vampire just stood there. Then they heard a loud thump. They looked down and saw a heart.
The vampire turned to take Sophie but was thrown against the wall and killed instantly. Sophie covered her mouth to prevent herself from screaming.
"I`m Elijah. You`ve heard of me?" Sophie nodded.
"Yes."
"So why don`t you tell me what business your family has with my brother?" Elijah asked her and stood in front of her.
Amy`s p.o.v
Klaus took me back onto Bourbon Street and we walked until we heard a lot noise. We walked in the alley and came to what seemed like a backyard of some sort.
"What is this place?" I asked him.
"This used to be my home." Klaus said quietly. I looked around. It was big and beautiful. I could imagine myself living here. There were vampires feeding off humans everywhere. This was against my nature.
"I don`t like being here, Nik. It`s making me uncomfortable." He looked at me.
"I really don`t want you to be here either but I have to figure this out." He told me.
Klaus looked around and found one of Marcel`s day walkers. He walked over to him. Leaving me alone on the dance floor. A vampire came up to me.
"What a pretty little girl you are and you smell divine. He touched my face and I felt disgusted.
"Now, don`t scream." He tried to compel me. I took his hand and twisted it around making him scream in agony.
"Touch me again and I will not hesitate to bite you." I whispered to him before I let him go.
I walked closer to Klaus.
"Where`s Marcel?" He asked one of the minions.
"Who the hell is asking?" He said rudely.
"I assume you`re joking?" Klaus was getting pissed off.
"I only answer to Marcel." Oh that boy really didn`t know what he was getting himself in to.
"Well then. In that case. Perhaps you`ll answer to this." Klaus grabbed his throat.
"You`re aware that a bite of a werewolf can kill a vampire, well as you can see I`m half werewolf so I`m going to ask you one more time. Where is Marcel?" Then Marcel appeared.
"Hey, I`m right here. Easy. Diego was just looking after me. Nobody harms my guys. Those are the rules." He said with a smile.
"I don`t care about your rules Marcel and I don`t need chaperons. Why are you having me followed?"
"Come here. I get it. Show of force. Let it go friend. For me." Marcel said to him.
"Fine. Why don`t you show me what you`ve done with the place? And explain exactly what you`ve been up to in my town." Klaus told Marcel.
"Follow me." Marcel brought us upstairs to the second floor. We walked out on the balcony that led out to the nightlife on Bourbon Street. Music and laughter filled the air. It was beautiful.
"Look at that skyline. That there is progress. More hotels, more tourists, more fresh blood. And the humans, I taught them to look another way." Marcel told us.
"And what of the witches? In my time, they were forced to be reckoned with and now, they live in fear. How do you know when they`re using magic?"
"Maybe I got a secret weapon. An ace up my sleeve. Something that makes me keep complete control of the magic in this town."
"Is that a fact?" Klaus asked.
"It might be. Maybe I`m just bluffing." Marcel take up something from a box and put it in his mouth. It burns a little but he doesn`t seem to mind.
"You take vervain." Klaus said.
"Burns like a bitch but I figured I should limit the number of things I`m vulnerable to. Don`t be mad about that chaperon thing. I told my guys to look out for you. That`s all, that`s what we do here. Look out for each other."
The two men looked down the street. Then Marcel noticed something.
"Mmh. New blood."
"The bartender. Walking alone at night. She`s either brave or dumb." Klaus said.
"You see. Brave I let her live. Dumb, she`s dessert." Marcel jumped off the balcony. I walked up to my boyfriend.
"I really don`t like that guy. But you seem to care for him." I told Klaus.
"I thought he died 100 years ago. It`s hard to see him still alive and taken over my city the one I helped built." Klaus said softly.
"Then we`ll get it back. With time I know you will." I told him and kissed him.
"I love you." I said.
Klaus held on to me.
"Love you too." We stood like that for a couple of minutes. Then Klaus stiffened.
"Good evening Elijah."
"Niklaus. Amy."
"Hello Elijah." I said to him.
"What an entirely unwelcome surprise." Klaus told his brother. I gave him a little nudge.
"And what an entirely unsurprising welcome. Come with me. The both of you." Elijah told us.
"I`m not going anywhere until I find out who`s conspiring against me." Klaus said to him.
"I believe I just found out that for you." Both Klaus and I looked at him.
We followed Elijah to an old cemetery.
"Well, this is creepy." I told them and clung onto Klaus` arm.
"What are we doing here?" Klaus asked.
"You want to know what the witches have in store for you. Follow me." Elijah responded.
We walked into a tomb. Just like the one when Alaric became a vampire. Sophie was standing inside waiting for us.
"Sophie Deveraux. What is this?" Klaus asked.
"He`s all yours. Proceed." Elijah said to Sophie and keeping me behind with him. Now I was scared.
"You know you`re famous in this town? Witches tell bedtime stories about the powerful vampire Klaus. We know Marcel was nothing but an orphan street rat until you made him what he is and now he`s out of control. He does what he wants, kills whom he wants. I`m gonna stop him and you`re gonna help me." Sophie said to Klaus.
"This is why you brought me here?" Klaus asked Elijah.
"Hear her out brother."
"I don`t need to hear her out. I assure you there`s nothing on this earth matter enough for me to waist even 30 more seconds of my time. Elijah what madness is this?" More witches came to view.
"You need to listen to us." Sophie said.
"Marcel may be able to prevent us from practice real magic in this town but as keepers of the balance we still know when nature has cooked up something new." Sophie looked at me.
"For example, I have a special gift of sensing when a girl is pregnant." Everyone looked at me. I was in shock.
"What?" Klaus said.
"Sensing when a girl is what?" I asked walking forward. I didn`t understand anything and now one said anything.
"What are you saying?" Klaus asked.
"Niklaus. The girl is carrying your child." Elijah said looking at the both of us.
"What?" I exclaimed. How could I be pregnant and not know it? I thought about it for a second. All my anger and eating habits. The dizziness. It all added up. I was pregnant.
I gasped when I realized it and looked over at Klaus. A strange feeling spread through my body and I knew for sure that I was pregnant.
"No. It`s not possible." Klaus said.
"Vampires can`t procreate." He was freaking out.
"But werewolves can. Magic made you a vampire but you were born a werewolf. You`re the original hybrid, the first of your kind and this pregnancy is one of nature`s loopholes." Sophie said.
Klaus looked over at me. His eyes were full of hurt. He grabbed my arm.
"You`ve been with someone else. Admit it!" He screamed at me.
"Nik! You`re hurting me." I said with tears in my eyes. Elijah made Klaus let me go and kept me behind him.
"I haven`t been with anyone else but you. You know that. You know me." I told him whilst my tears streamed down my face.
"My sister gave her life to perform this spell she needed to confirm this pregnancy. Because of Jane-Ann`s sacrifice, the lives of this girl and is now controlled by us. If you don`t help us take down Marcel, so help me. Amy won`t live long enough to see her first maternity dress." Sophie said.
"What?" I said in shock.
"Enough of this. If you want Marcel dead, he`s dead. I`ll do it myself." Elijah said.
"No! We can`t not yet. We have a clear plan we need to follow and there are rules." Sophie told us. I could see Klaus stiffen. I knew he was angry.
"How dare you command me? Threaten me, with what you wrongfully think will be my weaknesses. I won`t hear anymore lies." He said and started to walk away. I was standing there terrified.
"Niklaus!" Elijah said making his brother stop and turn around to face him.
"Listen." Everyone looked at me again, focusing on my abdomen, which I clung hard too.
Apparently, Elijah and Klaus heard something that I didn`t hear. Klaus` eyes went wide. He looked at me and I stared back at him. I didn`t know what to say. Then he turned to his brother.
"Kill the baby. I don`t care." Then he left us, me. I felt a stab in my heart when he told Elijah to kill the baby. How could he say that? It was a baby inside me. Him and me. Elijah looked at me with sadness. I broke down crying. This wasn`t happening.
Sophie tried to comfort me.
"I`m sorry about all of this. For what we`re putting you through." Sophie hugged me.
"I want to go home. I don`t want to be here." I told her.
"You can`t leave." She told me. I started to panic.
"Please! I need to go home to my friends and family. I can`t stay here."
"Sophie. I think it will be better for Amy and the baby if you let her go home to Mystic Falls for a few days. She needs to do this. She will be perfectly safe with my sister and her other friends. Her friend Bonnie Bennet is a witch as well." Elijah spoke up and ran after his brother. Sophie didn`t know what to do at first.
"Fine. You can go but only for a week. Nothing more and check in with me every day. I need to talk to Rebekah about this." Sophie said.
"Fine. Just get me out of here." I said still crying.
Sophie and her witchy friends got me out of there quickly. How could things change so much over just a day? This morning I was happy. Now I was still happy, sad, hurt and most importantly.
I was pregnant.
3- Person p.o.v
Klaus walked fast down Bourbon Street. He was freaking out. This wasn`t happening.
"Niklaus." Elijah called after him.
"It`s a trick Elijah."
"No brother. It`s a gift. It`s a chance it`s our chance."
"To what?" Klaus asked.
"To start over. To take back everything we lost. Everything that was taken from us. Niklaus our own parents came to despise us our family was ruined. We were ruined and since then all, you ever wanted. All that we ever wanted was a family." Elijah told him.
Klaus looked at his brother for a moment. It looked like he was coming around.
"I will not be manipulated." He told him and tried to walk away.
"So they manipulated you, so what? With them Amy and her child, your child live."
"I`m gonna kill every last one of them."
"And then what? Return to Mystic Falls as the hated one, the evil hybrid? Is it so important to you that people quake with fear every time they hear your name?"
"People quake with fear because I have to power to make them afraid. All this child will offer me, will it guarantee me power?" Klaus asked.
"Family is power Niklaus. Love loyalty is power. This is what we swore to another a thousand years ago; before life tore away the little humanity, you have left. Before ego, before paranoia, before anger created in this person before me. Someone I can barely recognize. This is my own brother. This is us, the Original family and we remain together forever. We should stay here and build up this city once more. I will help you and I will stand by you. I will be your brother. We will build a home here. So save your child. Amy loves you and you love her just as much in return. Think about what this will do to her."
Elijah told him.
"No!" Klaus said and walked away from Elijah.
Elijah picked up his phone and called Rebekah who just had talked to Sophie about Amy coming home.
"He`s doing what he does. Give him a chance of happiness and he runs in the opposite direction."
"Then let him run. The baby is better off without him."
"He`s not better off without the baby, Rebekah. Neither are we. And he`s certainly not better off without Amy. Without her, things will get really ugly for him."
"Darling, kind Elijah. Our brother rarely brings us anything but pain. In what point in your immortal life will you stop searching for his redemption?"
"I already found it. In Amy."
Elijah hung up the phone. He knew he had find his brother.
Amy`s p.o.v
I felt so lost. I am pregnant and alone for the moment, waiting for the departure of the plane. I need to go home for a while. I needed to think about what it is I want or I know what I want. I want Nik and I want this baby but he said that he didn`t want it. I looked at the sign and saw that it was almost time to board the plane.
Rebekah agreed to pick me up when I arrived. She was happy about being an aunt.
My phone rang. It was Klaus. I knew I had to take it.
"What do you want?"
"To say I`m sorry and that I love you."
"That won`t cut it this time. You told your own brother to kill my child. Your child!"
"Come on love. I am truly sorry. I need you here with me. I want to be a good father."
"How can I trust that? I have more than one person to look out for Nik."
"I know that and Elijah helped me see that. It just took some convincing."
"You see Nik, this is what I`m talking about. You had to be convinced to be happy about this baby and that`s not something I want this child to experience. A father who had to be convinced to love him or her. I need some time to think. I`m going home to Mystic Falls for a few days and I hope you`ll respect that.
I still love you so much and I want to be with you but I need some time to think by myself."
"I understand. I really do love you Amy."
"I know you do.
Bye."
I gave my ticket and walked onto the plane. I was crying so silently hard. Everything was a mess.
I know I love him and I know I`m going back to him but right now, I needed to go home to my own life in Mystic Falls. The problems in New Orleans will just have to wait. I have my own problems to deal with right now.
How am I going to tell the others about this pregnancy? I looked out the window of the plane
And I saw New Orleans disappear behind me.
So there you have it.
I want to explain why i wrote the ending like i did.
I want Amy to be in Mystic Falls when Jeremy and the others return from the dead. It`s the right thing for Amy. She needs to see her brother.
Other than that, i hope you liked the chapter and I will soon be back with more. No that I`m sick and can`t do much else.
Until next time!
