Chapter 55

"Genevieve, Celeste. I can't say it's a pleasure to see you again because its not" Klaus said.

Both women smirked and then Monique said "why have we been summoned? We are not your slaves that you can just call night and day"

"You have been summoned because we require information about a certain subject, a subject which requires you four and the rest of your coven" Elijah said.

"We want to know about your harvest ritual" Rebekah said.

All four witches smirked and Celeste said "four girls were sacrificed, two came back and the spirits decided that the others should die, while Genevieve and I return. There really isn't more to tell".

The next thing anyone heard was laughing and they all looked at Klaus. He stopped laughing after a moment and sneered "I hate being lied to and right at this moment I am restraining myself from killing all the witches in this town because of the information I have discovered. I don't care whatever deal you made with the original witch but it ends now". Klaus saw Monique and Abigail look at him curiously before looking at each other. Klaus smirked and said "I see that the younger witches of the community don't even know about the deal you and made. Did you tell them anything about the harvest?"

"We know enough, that we volunteered our lives because we had faith in our community and family that we would come back" Monique said quickly "if it wasn't for the fifth girl escaping then-" she was interrupted by Genevieve.

"Enough" Genevieve gave Monique a stern look that she was about to reveal vital information and Monique bowed her head in shame. Genevieve and Celeste glanced at each other for a moment before they looked back to the originals "you know?" Genevieve said while looking at Klaus.

"Yes" he took a few steps towards them so he was stood close to them "I will paint this world red with blood until I find her. It is in your best interest to tell me now or I will begin with yours".

Klaus said it so darkly that they all knew that he wasn't joking and he was determined to find her. The look he was giving Genevieve and Celeste made them nervous and they feared for there lives and that of the coven. They both glanced at each other, one last time, as if deciding on something and then Celeste said "we don't have her. As you know, someone interrupted our ritual and saved her. We lost many witches on that night".

"I know that but whom".

"Your son" Genevieve said and everyone looked at Marcel.

Marcel tried not to look at his parents as he said "so it is her?"

"Who else did you think it was?" Celeste said and smirked at the disappointed looks Marcel was getting off his family.

"Get out, now" Marcel sneered as he looked at the four witches.

Genevieve and Celeste both knew it was time to go and Genevieve said "it was a pleasure, Klaus".

"Hope to see you again soon, Elijah" Celeste said and looked Elijah up and down, which made Amelia grip Elijah's hand possessively. The four witches then left the house and as soon as they were outside, the two young witches were asking questions about what was really going on and what it had to do with the original witch.

"Marcellus" Caroline said and took a few steps towards him "why didn't you tell us?"

Marcel looked at his mother and instantly regretted not telling them because of the look in her eyes. He looked away and began to walk towards the front door as he said "I gotta go somewhere. Your rooms haven't been touched and you're all welcome to stay".

As Marcel walked past Klaus, who was closest to the door, Klaus gripped his upper arm and said "why did you keep it from us?"

Marcel hesitated and opened and closed his mouth before he finally said "papa, I'm sorry but I couldn't give you guy's false hope" Marcel managed to move his arm out of his grip "I'll be back soon".

"You're going to see her" Klaus stated as he knew his son.

"I have to see her..." Marcel glanced around and saw the desperation look on all of his family's faces and then walked away.


Nightfall was approaching and Marcel was stood across the road from a large white house and was looking through the downstairs window. He was leaning against the tree, in the shadows, as he saw three people inside. He had been watching them for a while but he didn't know how to approach them and tell the young girl the truth about her heritage. He felt a presence at the right of him and looked to see his parents walking towards him. He sighed and bowed his head in shame but then Caroline stood at the side of him and Caroline held his hand and squeezed it to show that she wasn't angry. Marcel smiled at her and then Klaus said "we're not angry with you, Marcellus".

"We just wish that you would have told us, that's all" Caroline said.

Marcel nodded and gestured to the window "that's her" Marcel said and both Caroline and Klaus looked towards the window. "The blonde is my girl Cami. She knows about Vampires and her uncle is a part of the human fraction, which is why none of the witches have attacked because then they would have to deal with the vampire and human fraction if she got hurt. The boy in there is named James" James was tall with pale skin, thick brown hair and green eyes "and I don't know much about him. Before the harvest, he came to me and said that his friend, your daughter, was in danger and I went to help. I knew the witches were up to something but I wouldn't have intervened if it wasn't for him. He saved her and she saved him. That night, James nearly got killed by one of the witches and that's the first time I saw her use her powers. She looked at the witch and a second later, the witch started to bleed from her eyes and she died" both Caroline and Klaus gave Marcel shocked looks. "My reaction was the same. James is extremely protective of her and the second she was safe, he wanted to get her as far from the witches as possible but all she said was that she was tired of running. I don't really know how they met as they came up with a cover story that she was abandoned by her parents and then a witch promised to help her with her magic and brought her here instead. They said it like they had rehearsed it and I think they did..." he looked at his parents as he said "the brunette is yours. I should have known that she was yours, she's a mixture of the two of you" Caroline smiled "she has moms blue green eyes, her light and compassion but she had papa's love for art and when it comes to people she loves, she is extremely protective and will do whatever it takes".

They both smiled and Klaus said "she paints?"

Marcel nodded "paints, sketches and moulds but she said that she doesn't mould often as sketching and painting are what she enjoys most. She's just like you and is really talented".

"What's her name?" Caroline asked.

"I don't know her real name but the one she told me is Davina. Davina Claire". They all looked towards the window to see James talking and Cami and Davina were laughing at him while they were playing cards.


After a few minuets of staring, James stood up and put a jacket on before he hugged the girls and left the house. They saw Cami pick up some plates from where they were playing cards, in the living room and Davina went upstairs. Marcel moved away from the tree and said "if you want to see her come with me now. If James gets back, I don't know what they have been told about the originals and I don't think it is good and he'll become protective". The three of them quickly walked towards the house and around the porch they could see numerous pendants. They both shot Marcel a look and he said "to keep the witches out" he then knocked on the door and waited for someone to answer. Caroline grabbed Klaus' hand and squeezed it as they were both nervous about meeting their daughter for the first time.
