No One's POV

"Elijah," Brooklyn gasps slightly about an hour into their drive back towards Mystic Falls.

"What is it?" Elijah looks over towards his mate in the passenger's seat with a worried expression on his already tense features.

"Drive faster." She urges, seeming to lose her breathe for a moment as if sensing something change in the atmosphere or air, magic itself trying to warn her of the imbalance to come.

Aaron is standing outside the Mikaelson mansion with a sever look on his face when Elijah and Brooklyn pull up in the circular drive, flanked by Ryan and Kaylee, the Hampton twins, Brooklyn's Gamma and Delta, and Finn who looks anxious and restless.

"Aaron," Brooklyn greets immediately as she slides out of the Escalade, already getting down to business. "What happened?"

"You need to see you this," Is all Aaron replies, his head bowed in difference to Brooklyn as his Alpha and leader of his coven, leading her into the Mikaelson mansion.

"No." Brooklyn simply replies, seeming to understand the implied words and the things left unsaid.

"We were too late," Aaron continues. "We couldn't stop the spell." He informs.

"NO!" Brooklyn screams, not needing to know the details for the lingering effects of the spell hung in the air like a bad taste; her magic let lose around her, the foundations of the Mikaelson mansion beginning to shake and the skies darkening, her immense amount of power flickering in her eyes.

Aaron, Ryan, and Kylee automatically bow, their inner wolves growling softly as they bow to their Alpha, eyes cast down as Brooklyn's powers darken the sky outside and make lightning flash in the sky, her anger, rage, and hurt echoing like a tangible tinge in the air.

"Aaron, handle the witch." Brooklyn snarls, spitting out the name witch as if it had offended her, her eyes flicking with molten gold. "Make sure she can't break out this time… I have a Hunter to find and a Scooby gang to hunt..." Brooklyn says with such a fierce viciousness Aaron couldn't help but mirror it back.

Aaron confidently strides (his sister would call it his murder strut for when he got in that mode most people knew not to fuck with him) with Kaylee and another pack member towards where the Scooby gang had clustered after they had taken down Niklaus, all of them clustered at the Petrova doppelganger's house, celebrating the take down of the Original Hybrid; Aaron was disgusted, they didn't know what they had done, what they had done to his sister, and furthermore, what they could have done to the supernatural world, thankfully, this time that is, the desiccation spell was temporary and he could be revived.

The crown is getting heavy,
But they've written my name in the stars.
For diamonds and castles,
I've dealt blood and greed and scars.

Eyes tinged gold, Aaron blasted open the door to the Gilbert house, strutting into the house, the two other pack members flanking him, one of which was Kaylee, he had left Ryan with his sister, after all, a General didn't send all her best soldiers.

"Hello Scooby gang." Aaron snarks with as much disdain as he can muster, his tone practically dripping with haughty superiority.

"Hey!" Elena cries, jumping and looking startled.

"You don't get to talk right now." Aaron flashes his eyes, daring the doppelganger to make a move against him. "As much as I'd love to deal with you… Petrova. I'm here for you… Witch." Aaron turns his attention to the Bennett Witch.

I've been climbing up all these mountains for so long,
And I've been building up all these kingdoms for so long.
But I will never run when destiny comes,
I'm dipping my hand in gold.

"What- what did I do?" Bonnie stutters, before finding her voice, turning her chin up slightly, even daring to have the audacity to act like she didn't know.

"What didn't you do is more the question?" Aaron snarks. "That bracelet was meant to teach you control… We give those to toddlers, teenagers… Witches and warlocks that need to be taught control and have the potential to be better… My sister is a benevolent and compassionate leader and you squandered your opportunity. Because of what? Your pride? Your blind loyalty?" Aaron sneers.

"I did what I had to! What was right!" Bonnie defends.

"As I said before, Bennett Witch…" Aaron rolls his eyes. "Go back to your books." He snarls, his magic beginning to swirl in his eyes.

"You can't do anything!" Bonnie screams.

"Watch me." Aaron replies calmly.

It's good to be king.
It's good to be king.
It's good to be king.
It's good to be king.

Gold swirls in the air as Aaron begins forming the very bracelet that Bonnie had broken once already before he wraps it around her wrist again.

"This one you can't slip so easily." Aaron warns as it lights up around her wrist like a live wire. "Parlor tricks aren't going to work either." He says as he watches the Bennett Witch attempt to summon a small flame in the palm of her hand, the very spell that she had used to break the band before.

"Pull a stunt like this again and we'll strip your magic completely. Will it be worth the sacrifice then?" He questions, and with that final word he and the other two wolves sweep out of the Gilbert house.

Like a conqueror.
Like a conqueror.
It's good to be king.
Like a conqueror.
It's good to be king.
Like a conqueror.
