Chapter 33 Blood

Harry walked down the damp hallway way with his light at the end of his wand. He had overheard a couple of the other wizards talking about capturing the new experiment that Cornelius Fudge was showing the others. Harry's curiosity got ahold of him and decided to venture down the dungeons and find out what Fudge did.

He got to the end of the hallway and looked through the little window, he almost dropped his jaw from what he saw. Harry rushed out of the hallway and ran into Kingsley. He told him what he saw and that they needed a plan to save them.

"You contact Luna Lovegood while I figure out a way to save him." Kingsley said, he rushed to his office to figure out how to save them.

Harry arrived at his office and got out his mirror. "Call Luna Lovegood," He said with panic in his voice. "Luna, you need to come back to the Ministry, there is something you need to see."

2 weeks earlier…

Hermione has been at Salem, Massachusetts for quite some time now, knowing that Elijah could either be on her tail or Klaus caught his brother and was trying everything to get him back to normal. She was hoping the latter.

And Hermione was one of those people that did something to occupy her mind while it was racing, she decided to walk around Salem. She found the town quite quant. Very witch themed but it was something that she enjoyed looking at.

She came across the accused witches' graves and decided to leave roses, the magical roses that would never wilt or die. It was perfect. She said a silent prayer and said her goodbyes.

As she was walking back to Klaus' house, she felt like someone was watching her, she looked over her shoulder and found no which was odd to her. She kept her guard up until she made it to the hybrid's house safely. She knew the ward was up so nothin could pass through without getting shocked.

Hermione said a quick 'hi' to Crookshanks and went to the living room to clear her thoughts. She had a feeling it was Elijah, she just knew it was him.

Hermione jumped from her set when she heard a knock at her front door. She gripped her wand and walked slowly towards the door. She looked through the peephole and saw a familiar blond standing in front of her door, Hermione smiled and opened her door.

"Hello, Luna." Hermione greeted.

The blond witch smiled at her pushy brunette best friend and waved at her. "Hello Hermione." She replied. "I love the house, good thing there is no windchimes. You know those-"

"Those don't protect the muggles," Hermione smiled and nodded. "I know, Luna, I know." She moved to the side and let waved her in. "Come in."

Luna walked in with her bags floating behind her. She looked around the vintage home with a smile. "Quite quant to be Niklaus' home." Luna commented. "No Nargles in site."

Hermione looked around outside to find no one standing there only to shut and lock the door behind her. "Thank the Gods for that, but yes Klaus does have a taste for his homes." She said. "Tea, Luna?" The blond witch nodded as she looked over the copious amount of books that riddled his home.

As Hermione was magically making the tea and Luna was petting Crookshanks, they didn't notice the dark figure standing in the backyard staring at the lonely witch through the window. The figure growled and narrowed their eyes at her. They were hoping for the right moment to get the witch once and for all.

Hermione walked into the living room with Luna sitting on the sofa staring blankly into space. "Luna, I have to ask, where is Finn?" She asked.

Luna looked to Hermione and said, "He had to stay back and help Niklaus and Kol find Elijah. He hasn't been seen since being with you and at that café."

Hermione sighed and shook her head. "You might think I'm crazy, but it feels like someone has been watching me."

Luna furrowed her brows and titled her head. "Do you have a ward around the house?" She asked.

Hermione nodded. She stood up and looked out the window, looking past the shadowed figure hiding behind the tree. "I do! But it just feels like someone has been following me all week and, and it scares me Luna."

The blond witch stood up and beside her best friend, she laid her hand on Hermione's shoulder. "It might be him." She muttered.

Hermione nodded. "And that's what I'm afraid of. Has Freya figured out a way to bring Elijah back to his normal state?" She asked.

Luna shook her head. "No. She and the Parker twins are working on it, but nothing so far."

"Whatever Dahlia did to him, she ruined him." Hermione muttered. "She opened up something that triggered his past and now he can't escape it."

"I agree. She along with those Sisters are causing enough problems as it is. They are still after Davina." Luna said.

Hermione rubbed her rubbed eyes and shook her head. "This is insane, our kind is nothing like this!" She exclaimed. "They aren't hell bent destroying one another, unless it's Umbridge and the now dead dark lord, but these witches are just…" She sat on the couch and brushed away her frustrated tears. "I just want my Elijah back, I want things to go back to the way things were and not running for our lives because of these ugly hags that want revenge!"

The witches covered their faces when a vase exploded. They looked to each other and Hermione shook her head.

"I'm tired, Luna," She said. "I'm so tired of all of this." Hermione sobbed and rushed into the kitchen. She hated to cry in front of people, she hated to show emotions sometimes, but Elijah was hers, and she wanted to help but he is after her and she wanted to be safe from him.

Luna walked into the kitchen to see Hermione sitting on a stool that sat in front of the island. "Hermione," She whispered.

The said witch shook her head. "No, Luna, just I've had enough of this." She said. "Of these witches who think they are better than anyone else."

The blond witch sat next to her best friend and squeezed her shoulder. "We will figure out a to bring Elijah back, don't worry."

Hermione smiled and sipped her tea. "Ever the optimist, Luna." She said.

Luna smiled at Hermione. "Not optimistic, I just know things." She sipped her tea.

Hermione chuckled and shook her head. "Oh, Luna. But I have looked through some books about what Elijah is going through and I haven't found anything yet. I might ask Draco if he has anything in his library since mine is running low lately."

Luna nodded and started to pet Crookshanks while thinking about the Mikaelson boys trying to find Elijah and bring him home.

"Now, let's go explore Salem. I've heard their shops and museums are quite unique." Luna said. Hermione nodded and guided her friend out of the house and into the streets where they had spent the majority of the day.

Somewhere in New Orleans Finn was speeding down the street trying to find his brother. He, Klaus, Kol and Rebekah had split up to other parts of the country to see if they could find Elijah in any of his many house from New York, Seattle, Dallas and finally Miami; but nothing!

Finn had told Klaus that maybe Elijah had finally come home to New Orleans, so the hybrid agreed to let the second oldest go home to find Elijah, but he wasn't there either.

The upgraded Original rushed down the street but stopped when he looked back and found two men in black suits following him down the street. He furrowed his brows and rushed away to an ally way.

When he looked back, they were gone which made him breath out a breath of relief. But when he looked back, they stood right there in front of him. He growled at them and rushed towards them.

The men in black were faster and blasted him into the brick wall. They put their wands away and apparated him to the Ministry for some experimentation.

Hermione walked into the living room, where Elijah is sitting by the fireplace, and she stops in the doorway.

"What are you doing here? How did you get in here?" She asked.

Elijah looks up at her with a blank expression. He stood up from his stop and stood in front of his mate, his witch. To him, her eyes were narrowed to show him that she wasn't scared but he heard her heartbeat and knew she was terrified of him. He walked towards her and felt her wand poking him in his chest, he knew that she wouldn't do anything to harm him, but she was brave and a beauty to be seen.

Hermione messed with her wand and pointed it at his chest. "Elijah, you're gonna have to talk to me, sweetheart. I can't help you if you don't tell me how to fix you."

Elijah looks at her quizzically but remains silent. He was confused on what she meant. "And what is it?" He asked.

Her heartbeat was going to crazy, she stood tall and said, "I want to know why, why did she do this to you."

Elijah is completely stunned speechless, and Hermione, feeling awkward, starts speaking rapidly as though she's very anxious about this ordeal.

"I want to know where Elijah Mikaelson went!" She screamed. Hermione's power got so out of hand that she plasted him across the room. He hit a bookshelf that collected not only dust, but books fell on him. "I want to know where the man I fell in love with went, what the hell did Dahlia do to you?"

Elijah stood tall and dusted himself off. He turns toward the window, and Hermione walks closer to him.

"Elijah…" Hermione began.

"She had opened my mind to traumas that I have hidden for so long," He said. "I had killed a girl from my village long ago, I had thought that my mother had killed her to turn my family, but she didn't, I had killed her out of cold blood."

Hermione looks overwhelmed, especially since Elijah had just told her a sin he had done long ago.

Hermione shook her head and rubbed her thumb over her wand. "I don't know what, I should just—"

She turns to leave, but Elijah rushes after her and grabs her by the arm to turn her toward him. He reaches around her waist and pulls her toward him so he can kiss her passionately, a kiss which Hermione returns. After a moment, he pulls away.

Elijah quietly said, "I love you, Elskan. I'm sorry about what has happened, I'm sorry for the guilt and fear I have caused you. I want things to be the way they were, but life for us Mikaelsons has never been easy. My paranoid brother to my sister who has a tends to find men who are wrong for her. My family is a mess, my love. But my wish is for you to be happy and to know that whatever I can do I can come back to you as I once was."

She stares at him in confusion as Elijah gently brushes a lock of hair off of Hermione's face with his fingers before cupping her face in his hands to look her in the eye.

"This is my wish for you. I wish to leave for a while, leave and get my head back on track and then I will come back to you, to my family." He said. "I need to know what Dahlia and the Sisters did to me, but I will return to you once I know that I will not harm you or anyone else near and dear to us."

Elijah lightly brushed away her tears as Hermione slowly reaches up and caresses Elijah's face with her hand. They stare at each other for a long moment before they both lunge for each other and start kissing even more passionately.

Elijah picks her up and wraps her legs around his waist before vamp-speeding them against the bookshelf, where he pulls off Hermione's jacket. Hermione unknots his tie and rips his shirt open as he pulls down the straps of her dress, and eventually moves them over to the coffee table, where he lays Hermione so they make love.

He thrusted himself into her as carefully as possible…but when she gripped the crisp white shirt into her hands, Elijah lightly stroked her hair before he cradled her face in his hands.

There was no avoiding the pain the witch would feel and he knew it as the Original brushed her tears away. "I'll be gentle, Love." Elijah responded as he took it slow with her.

Hermione felt the pain ease off and be replaced with pleasure as they kissed and moved together in a rhythm perfect for them…and Hermione's eyes closed as she tilted her head back.

Elijah felt her trembling under him as they finished together and he gently removed himself from her, pulling off the condom and seeing drops of blood on it before he threw it away and held Hermione…and they kissed after saying "I love you.", the two falling asleep as they held each other.

Finn awakens to find that he is in a dungeon that had barred doors. He's suspended by his wrists, which are bound by chains. He looks around the room, taking note of the dozens of lit candles surrounding him. He growled when he saw a fat man surrounded by two others.

"What do you want? Why am I here!?" He exclaimed, trying to move towards them but the chains held him back.

The fat man named Cornelius Fudge was smirking like a cat who just ate his mouse. "Oh, just a little experimenting from the so called Ultimate Original Vampire. A beast that roams this earth! A beast that I will prove that is a monster among men." Fudge got in his face and whispered, "A beast that needs to be put in his place."

Finn narrowed his eyes at the fat man and growled at him, ready to attack him but the chains proved him that he couldn't. He heaved at the fat man and roared at him. "When I get out of the chains you will be sorry, fat man!"

Fudge shook his head and looked the young wizards who looked very scared. "We have methods of shutting the weak up." He charmed a bucket of water to appear over Finn's head.

Once he made the bucket fall Finn screamed bloody murder. The wizards looked at Fudge in a confused manner. "Vervain, it's the monster's weakness." He said.

When the bucket was finally empty Finn let out a gasp and asked, "Why are you doing this?"

Fudge fixed his jacket and said, "To show that Looney Lovegood that monsters are right under her brainless nose." And he walked away.

Finn growled and roared to the sky, declaring that he was going to get the man for what he has done. The older Mikaelson had thought silently on how he was going to get out of the chains and kill him, he had to tap into his family killing tendencies. He had to know how to take care of the problem once and for all!
