The Mikaelson Compound :
Hayley POV :
She was having a terrible day , a very terrible one . first she had to go to the bayou playing host to at least five new packs , tolerate oliver gabs without smashing his teeth in and keep reminding herself that in the end he is loyal to the pack above anything else and that he has reasons to hate vampires even though his anger is misplaced on the wrong vampires .
Just because Klaus has raised Marcel and then Marcel went to torment them Does not make him an accomplice in their suffering , and just because Klaus has promised them a mean of power that she does not approve of by the way doesn't turn him into their master and she and them by extension their puppets .
And now she had to deal with the three living Mikaelson's siblings ganging up on her , oh joy , oh bliss .
" Look it's not a big deal , here or there it will be the same " . she tried to Reason with the three but was stopped by Rebekah .
" don't even think like that sweetheart , this is your first time giving birth ... " . that you know of dear Bex , " you could easily have complications need blood transfusion risk infection , and let's not forget that Hope will need to have care and checkups immediately " . Rebekah returned passionately .
" so you see Hayley , you giving birth in the Bayou is not ideal for you or Hope " . Elijah finished for his sister .
" no child of mine will be born on the swamps , If you insist on this madness I will trap you in the compound " . Klaus threatened with a low growl that made her blood boil .
She turned to face the three as she halted on her effort to reach the library , " excuse you , did you just threaten me Klaus Mikaelson . how about I retaliate , if you even dare to try it you will have to trek the Bayou high and low to see your daughter birth " . she hissed furiously and he took a step back raising his hands in a calming gesture .
" calm down love , I will never ... You do know that what you propose is not reasonable don't you love ? " . he asked her curiously .
" you won't be saying that if you saw half the Werewolves population of the country at my door , all here to witness Hope birth " . Hayley Groaned and sighed tiredly .
" deep breath Hayley " . Rebekah reminded her sternly and she took a deep breath , letting her guide her to a chair to sit .
She noticed Marcel , Davina , Bonnie and Kol watching the spectacle from the second floor balcony in obvious interest .
" look I think that , I may give birth earlier than what my doctor had appointed for me , so you may want to kick start your preparation for the ritual . and if I want to appease my guests and relations at the same time I may need to spend the next few weeks there with them and you Klaus need to go there show yourself and make allies " . she informed them seriously .
Klaus face reddened in anger , Rebekah didn't look pleased even Elijah has a frown on his face , " seriously , is there no way for you to stay here and rest the last few weeks of your pregnancy ? " . Rebekah asked her with a frown .
" I can't , politics won't let me no matter how much my back is killing me . this munchkin has been more active than usual and let me tell you if anyone God above , just one more person ask me when I will pop my pup I will kill them with my own hands " . she rumbled back agitatedly .
" go a head love , but please calm down your blood pressure is already high as it's " . Elijah reminded her soothingly and she took a deep breath to calm down .
" is that why you prepared that bag , you already made up your mind " . Klaus stated calmly , too calmly for her liking .
" actually , yes . I know that you will all be busy the next few weeks . the city is in the brink of war all waiting for the others to make the first move all the while preparing themselves even my wolves are . Marcel gave his men to look after and talk sense into . you two have been running between the humans and witch's playing ball , Rebekah will have to take care of all the preparation for Your brothers return " . she stated seriously pointing at everyone of them .
" which leave as nearly alone in the house with only the girls for company and emergency and as much as I love them , I prefer to spend the last two month's of my pregnancy lessening work for me later " . she told the now silent and contemplating three . " Bex would you please drive me there my back is killing me ? " . she finished with a plea to the blonde original , Rebekah looked at her two Brothers questionly the two shared a look before nodding in agreement .
" you will call twice a day " . Klaus Demanded from her and she nodded in agreement . " I will " .
" you will call any of us if you need anything ? " . Elijah asked her seriously , " I promise " . she returned equally as serious .
" you can all come and see me anytime , I promise " . Hayley reminded them with a smile .
" fine , let me change and I will take you there " . Rebekah surrendered with a huff before stumping off to her room .
" I will be OK , we will be fine . I promise " . she said softly patting Klaus Arm in assurance .
A few minute's later , Elijah has James put her bag in the car and she herself was busy saying goodbye , Marcel was easy he reminded her to take care and call him if she need a break from the Mikaelson's hovering .
Davina and bonnie not as easy , " I can't believe you are leaving me here all alone with them " . Bonnie complained with a pout .
" you can come and see me anytime , You will like it there . and I know that you are getting fond of them so this pout won't work on me " . Hayley returned with playful pinch to her cheek .
" more like I'm getting used to them , they grow on you like a fungus " . she mumbled back while hugging her fiercely before pulling back and patting her pump , " bye little cuz , behave for your Mommy " . she whispered gently to Hope before joining Finn on the chairs in the courtyard .
" don't tire yourself okay , and say hi for girls for me " . Davina ordered her while hugging her tightly . " and don't forget to call , I will miss you so much " . she whispered tearfully .
She rubbed her back soothingly and whispered back , " I will too , and I will call you everyday " .
She moved on to hug Elijah who repeated his words of earlier extracting another promise from her , Kol and Finn were easy too the two only asking her to take care of herself which left her with hardest and most important Mikaelson ..
She turned to Klaus who has on his usual cool expression that was never good to see , she took his hands in hers and squeezed them tightly and he returned the gesture ," don't do anything reckless , you can come and see us anytime you are welcome there " . she reminded him worriedly and he just pulled her silently to his embrace , squeezing her tightly before letting her go with a sigh , he nodded to Rebekah who nodded back some kind of understanding between them going there .
He opened the door for her and helped her to her seat , he patted her cheek softly before taking a step back . Rebekah turned the car and she could only wave back at them ignoring the pinching sensation in her chest .
They reached the Bayou forty minutes later , Rebekah driving as carefully as she can . she parked the car and carried her small bag for her as they made their way to the main house ignoring the wolves especially the forgein alpha's inquisitive Gaze's .
Eve , Jackson and Mary were waiting for them in the porch probably already informed of their arrival by one of scouts .
Jackson smiled welcomingly at them not hiding his curiously , " I thought I will stay here for a few weeks , if you don't Mind having me " . she told the three with a smile .
She watched with amusement as their faces lit up with joy and Jackson hurried to take her bag from Rebekah while he said , " it's your home , you can stay as long as you want " .
" we already have a room prepared for you " . Mary told her happily .
Jackson who moved to take the handle of the bag found that Rebekah was not passing it to him , she was glaring at him before shifting her glare to Mary and Eve in turn before Returning it to Jackson . " Bekah !? " . she asked her curiously .
She just smiled at her reassuringly before Returning her dark Glare to the three and saying sweetly , " we will come to cheek on her , she better be safe and well taken care of or woe bitid you . and God help you if she has a scratch on her we will make the massacre of twenty years ago look like a child throwing tantrum beside what we would do to you " . she finished with a meaningful look to Mary who paled silently but nodded in understanding .
Satisfied with the elder reaction she gave Jackson the bag with a glare before pulling her into a hug . " I will come see you soon " . she promised her gently .
" you better or I will be mad at you , take care of your Siblings " . Hayley returned with a smile , Rebekah pulled back before rubbing her pump gently , " bye bye little love , aunty Bex will miss you " . she cooed softly and her smile widened when Hope kicked back at where her hand is .
" I will take that as I Will miss you too " . Rebekah declared with a laugh and with one final hug to her she disappeared .
She turned to the three watching wolves , and asked them , " I was promised a room !? " .
" follow me , I will show you to your room " . Jackson waved her with a smile already brushing off Rebekah's threat unlike Mary and Eve , she followed him happily inside .
The Bayou :
Eve shack :
Hayley and Jackson were going through the financial and deeds documents that Mark and the Mikaelson's dug out for them , they were trying to form a plan of who will get their properties back and what to do to help the poor wolves who wouldn't .
" half of our properties weren't even taken by Marcel , it was all grabbed by the Correa family using illegal means " . Jackson Growled angrily with a hand to his forehead .
" it's okay , what was taken illegally can be salvaged illegally too " . Hayley said calmly not lifting her eyes of the documents on her hand .
Jackson turned to her inquisitively and she elaborated calmly , " once upon a time the labonair used to rule the underground of this city , our pack controlled everything across the river . it's written in the treaty once we are organized and trained we will get back our power in the underground in return we cover for the vampires and they do that for us " .
" you mean your vampire side of the family are willing to give us half the city ? " . Oliver who came behind them asked her incredulously .
" they are willing to return what was taken from us , half the city is ours to Begin with . the Correa family had picked after us and are now Reaping the benefits . why give that to stranger's when you can give it to Kin ? " . Hayley answered him gently after putting down the documents and gesturing him to join them .
" so we are Kin now ? " . he asked her with wave to her extended baby pump .
Hayley took a deep breath and clasped her hands on the table before looking oliver in the eyes and annunciating every word , " look Oliver I know that you suffered a lot in the past years , and for some unknown reason you think I had it better than you and that make you dislike me " .
" Hayley ... " . Jackson tried to interfere sensing the charge in the air .
" you mean that you didn't have it easy and good !? " . Oliver asked her with a scoff of disbelieve as he touched the hem of her long sleeved designer maternity dress .
Jackson flung his hand off with a warning growl , " watch it oliver " .
Hayley patted his hand calmly and Thankfully not taking her eyes from Olivers who shoot Jackson an apologetic look , " you know I spent the first five years of my live in a sorry place they call orphanage , being one of the younger kids shielded and protected from the cruelty of the world by older children , I spent most of my formative years alternating between surviving on the street and jumping from one foster family to another . I activated my Curse at thirteen by accidentally killing a friend and since then I was surviving alone trying to learn who I'm , and Why I'm different than other kids !? " . she told the two gaining Their attention , they stayed silent listening to her tale with clear interest .
" I have done many awful things to survive , I let twelve of my friends die so I can find my pack and who my parents were ? . I was nearly killed by one of earth most infamous evil Bitchs in existence , that how I meet Klaus . he saved my life we ended up in one nightstand and a daughter in the way , I spent my first week in my city imprisoned in a catacomb by Witch's . nearly got killed three times by them so you can come and pick on me for being a spoiled princess " . Hayley finished with a glare at the Guiltily squirming oliver .
Jackson was watching her with guilty and sad eyes , " you may think me blind and ignorant but I know everything that is happening in and out of the Bayou " . Hayley said calmly as she arranged the documents infront of her before turning to have oliver a cold smile . " and everything my wolves are getting into , don't cross me oliver I'm not above putting you down in your place " . Hayley finished and gestured to the door .
" you have no place in here , this is a meeting between the leader's of the pack , return to your duty " . she ordered him , and didn't look away from him until he left the room .
She turned to Jackson not giving him the chance to comment on the confrontation she gestured to the paper's in his hands , " let's continue , we need to go over all of this before dinner " . she urged him .
But Jackson was still looking at her with conflicted eyes , " what was that at the end ? , you think oliver is up to something ? " . he asked her apprehensively .
Hayley looked at him sadly and nodded , " not only oliver , part of the pack are not happy with how we settled things with the other factions . they want Revenge and control over the city and are willing to ally with unconventional and hidden enemies to achieve that " . she informed him and he rubbed his eyes in shock and overwhelming tension . " you should watch your back Jack , our enemies have their eyes on this pack and we are obstacles to them " . she advised him .
He looked at her questionly , " what enemies ? , Witch's , vampires . which one !? " . he asked her urgently .
" wolves , other lines . old enemies grappling for power " . she corrected him with sigh .
Jackson looked away thoughtfully , and Hayley looked down to the sheets infront of her absentmindedly .
French quarter :
Bonnie POV :
Bonnie sighed for the umpteenth time as she shred a meal with the Mikaelson's , Marcel was away with his men hitting Bar's or the fighting pit's according to Elijah displeased comments .
Three weeks had went since Hayley left for the Bayou , and her absence was felt deeply by her . especially at meal times were the family and her and Davina are gathered Together .
She can see it in Rebekah's pouts and worried glances to the solar room and Hayley's bedroom , the two were close as thief's and Rebekah was hit with her absence the most at least obviously as she looked lonely and bored all the time .
Elijah was more absorbed in work , he spent more time with Klaus , Marcel and their vampires outside , doing only God know what .
And the less said about Klaus the better , in the past months she forgot how temperamental and scary the Hybrid is . all she had saw from him is smile's and sarcastic comments and tender gesture's around Hayley . now he is always on edge and spent hours in his Atelier or Hope nursery . she suspected Hayley's room too but has no evidence .
The only time she saw him Happy or calm was when Hayley called him , which serve to further confuse her why he didn't go to visit her even once , when his two siblings and Davina had done so twice a week and he always entorgate them the moment they returned .
She took a bite from her steak and lobster with asparagus , trying to finish her dinner and excuse herself to the library with Finn for their lesson .
She jumped in her seat and shared a wide eyed look with Davina who too was startled by the sudden ringing of the phone ,everyone turned to Klaus who gas his phone in his hand and looking at it with a worried frown .
" Niklaus !? " . Elijah and Finn asked their brother worriedly .
" Hayley is calling " . he answered them warily as he stood up from his chair .
" why aren't you answering then , she must be calling to assure us that she is well " . Rebekah stated with a wave of her fork .
" the thing is sister , I just got off the phone with her before dinner . and now she is calling " . Klaus replied with a tight expression .
In a flash Elijah was on his feet and making his way to the door , they all followed after them . " answer her then , you can't just storm the bayou without knowing what is going on " . Finn ordered Klaus who nodded and answered the call , they all gathered around him to listen .
" finally , I was about to disconnect the call " . Hayley complained with a tired sigh .
" my apologizes love , what is the matter ? . do you want me to come to you ?" . he asked her worriedly .
" actually I do , but tomorrow . I need you and Elijah in the Bayou " . Hayley answered him .
All of them shared a look , especially Klaus and Elijah who asked her , " are you in trouble Hayley ? " .
" oh , Elijah , hi . I'm not in trouble not yet , but I feel like something going to happen tomorrow , I can't remember what it's important really , really important . so I thought better be save than sorry " . Hayley answered him with a disgruntled and annoyed tone .
The four Mikaelsons Brothers shared a look and they turned to Kol who has a thoughtful frown on he waved his finger at his brothers in a gesture she couldn't understand , " we will be there as early as possible Darling , rest assured . did you have Dinner yet ? " . Klaus replied before asking her worriedly .
Hayley laughed as she answered him , " I did , I'm trying to fall a sleep , I will see you in the morning " .
" we will be there , Good night " . Elijah replied with a smile that widened at Hayley sleepy return , " night " .
" what is this about ? " . she asked Elijah and Finn worried for Hayley .
Elijah sighed and answered her Truthfully , " usually Hayley has clear vision on what will come especially for important events , this is not the first time she forgot or missed something important happening " .
She did hear of this visions from Kol and Finn who were discussing them and their limitations and factors that affect them , " OK , that is worrying . what can make Hayley forgot her visions ? " . Davina asked Kol worriedly .
" Hayley herself is able to see this vision due to her connection with Hope , they are two persons in one body . Hayley gas once mentioned that her ancestors are using Hope and this vision to commune with her . they are the most suspect to tamper with her memories or visions " . Kol answered them as he paced around the courtyard .
" why would they ? , I thought that they are in our side !? " . Rebekah asked her brother's uncertainly .
" the ancestors are in our side as far as Hope being born , but they themselves have plans . plans that they are willing to manipulate and use Hayley to achieve " . Klaus stated with icy eyes .
" anyway , we have no other choice but to go to the bayou " . Elijah stated calmly and Klaus nodded in agreement .
She shared a look with Davina and Rebekah who all have the same worried expression , Hopefully Hayley and Hope will be fine , and nothing big happen tomorrow .
THE BAYOU:
Hayley and Eve are in her shack , where Eve is helping Hayley prepare for giving birth like she insisted she do for the past week .
" you know that I'm still in the eight month right !? " . Hayley asked her from her place on the matters in the ground .
" not all women gave birth at their due date , especially first time " . Eve explained to her before reminding her , " breathing exercise " .
Hayley took a deep breath , Eve nodded in satisfaction , " That's it . Inhale and release " .
" I'm not giving birth here , no matter how much you argue with me . this pumpkin will be born in the quarter " . Hayley told her calmly .
" Honey , the werewolves have been having babies out here since before you were born . Stop worrying the two of you will be fine here " . Eve argued with her adamant on her giving birth here .
" let's agree to disagree " . Hayley cut her off as Eve helped her up .
" let's go and see what is the commission is about ? " . Hayley ordered her as she fixed her black dolmen top over her black jeans and black lace up boots , the only color is from her Burgundy open pocket Cardigan .
The two made their way outside and Hayley's face brightened at the sight of
Klaus and Elijah on all their expensive and formal attire surrounded by casually dressed wolves .
Elijah was the first to spot her and gave her bright smile , " Hayley , Good morning " .
Hayley made her way through the gathered wolves to the two and hugged Elijah in greeting , " Elijah , thank you for coming " .
Elijah kissed her cheek before looking into her eyes and returning with , " anything for you , at least you are well from the last time I saw you " . he quibbed with a smile .
She narrowed her eyes at him , " surprising right , I'm still alive and good today which is three days after your visit " . she returned playfully before turning to Klaus .
Klaus was examining her carefully she rolled her ryes at him before turning around in a circle , " see all in one piece " . she teased him and he rolled his eyes at her .
He pulled her into a gentle hug that she returned and buried his head on her neck taking on her smell , his body relaxing immediately . " hello , sweetheart " .
" hi , miss me !? " . she asked him playfully .
" very much " . he hummed with a kiss to her temple .
Hayley took their hands and pulled them toward the main house , " come on , I will introduce you to the alphas who are visiting here with their packs , you never stay long enough to meet them " . she accused Elijah who shoke his head at her mirthfully , before turning her look to Klaus , " and you never visit to even see me , let alone make acquaintance " . Hayley said with pout and Klaus looked away guiltily .
" you wanted to stay here , if I visited I would have taken you with me " . Klaus stated firmly .
" how are the girls , and you know Who's ? " . Hayley asked the two eagerly .
" they all miss you " . Elijah answered her and she beamed , " I miss them too " .
The wolves around them went back to their works and Jackson and oliver made their way to them , Jackson with a calm expression unlike oliver grim one .
Hayley smiled at him and called out , " jack , look who is..." . she trailed off when Klaus halted his steps and turned to the tree lines followed by Elijah the two having a frown on their faces .
A moment later The loud roar of a motorbike approaching was heard clear by all present , Jackson reached them and asked confusedly , " What the hell ? " .
The driver of the motorbike rides into the encampment and stops a few feet's from them , Hayley's face twisted in Horror as she shouted at the wolves near him .
" step back , get away from him " . she ordered them , and the wolves gave her confused looks . " now " . she roared and they scrambled to obey her moving away from the man letting Jackson and the Mikaelson's and her approach him .
" are you the one in charge ? " . he asked her gruffly .
Jackson gave him a scrutinizing look before answering him , " Who's asking ? " .
" you are not a wolf , what is a human doing in the Bayou ? " . Klaus Demanded from him suspiciously .
The man didn't answer only tightened his hands on the motorbike handles with a smirk , Elijah was the first to Notice something off about the man , and reflexively tackled him off his bike and into the woods , just as the motorbike exploded throwing Everyone backwards from the blast .
Screams filled the air as shock was overtaken by fear and pain , Klaus who was blown off Groaned and straightened himself off he only saw Jackson and oliver in the ground injured .
His eyes widened in horror as he shouted , " Elijah !? , Hayley !? " . he called as he looked around at the two most important people to him hear unconcerned with the other wolves around him .
Elijah picked himself up off the ground . His clothes and skin were all singed and covered in ash . It took a moment for Elijah's ears to heal enough to hear anything . " brother " . he called back to Klaus as he made his way to him .
Klaus sighed in Relive when he saw him up and moving and the two turned to look around , wolves were running around helping the few injured ones inside some trying to put off the fire .
They couldn't find Hayley mid the chaos until they heard Oliver call out yo her , " Hayley , are you okay ? " .
Hayley Groaned and got up shakily she hurried over to where everyone else is . She looked around her with wide horrified ryes her breathing irregular and she looked on the verge on panic attack , " Hayley " . the two Mikaelson brothers called out to her worriedly as they speed to her .
Elijah took her shaking hands on his and called out to her , " Hayley , calm down . everything will be fine . no one is dead we will heal everyone , please breath " .
" why ... I ... How could I ... I forgot about this ... But ... Oh god what is wrong with me ? " . Hayley cried hysterically .
Klaus hugged her and turned to his brother . " I will take her inside and calm her down , look around for leads " . Klaus informed his brother who nodded in understanding his concerned gaze still on distraught Hayley .
Klaus carried Hayley inside with the help of Eve who run off to bring her some herbal tea , as the wolves followed Elijah's orders and brought his elders to him yo heal them he gave each a few drops of blood from His palm and nodded in satisfaction when their injuries began to lessen .
He noticed a little boy was standing next to a severely injured man , Elijah handed him to Clarisse who had hurried over to help . " take him away from here " .
Elijah kneeled next to the injured man. Elijah lifted his shirt to find chemical and heat burns on his abdomen and chest , " Wolfsbane " .
" It must have been in the gas tank , would he make it ? " . Jackson who came behind him asked .
And Elijah bite his hand again feeding the man his blood , " he will make it " . he said as he passed him to Jackson who helped him inside with the help of Oliver .
Inside the shack :
Klaus was kneeling infront of Hayley who was sited in a chair , talking Hayley into regulating her breathing he had her hands in his chest as the two synchronised their breathing , " common love , breath in ... Breath out " .
" I I ca.. Can't ... I Ca..nt Breath " . she stuttered with wide eyes .
" yes you can , give me a deep breath ... Now love . inhale ...yes , just like that . now exhale " . he urged her gently but firmly .
" I forgot ... For... How can I ...wh..." . Hayley cried fearfully .
" Hayley look at me , shh ... Calm down love . you are fine , you will be fine . you need to calm down " . he cooed to her brushing her hair gently and squeezing her hands in his .
Hayley looked at her shaken hands with tearful eyes , " I can't stop sh-shaking. Wh-why won't it st-stop " . she asked him fearfully .
" that's just the fear darling , it will stop soon Your body just needs to get it all out . Just relax breath , clear your mind and it'll pass " . Klaus whispered to her soothingly .
Hayley followed his instruction and ten minutes later she calmed down and leaned tiredly on Klaus chest , her face red and her her cheeks damp with tears , " you are alright love , see . the shaken stopped and your breathing even out " . he said gently as he peppered her head and temple with kisses .
" I don't know what to do Klaus , I'm so scared " . she confessed to him with lost terrified eyes .
" don't be , you have me and Elijah even Kol and Finn will do anything to protect you and Hope . I know that you came to tryst and relay on those visions , but I want you to remember even without them and the advantages they give us we will not be trampled by our enemies " . he assured her seriously . " if it push comes yo push , I can always go in full Klaus Mikaelson on them and show this city my vicious side " .
Hayley slapped him on the chest warningly , " no psychotic tantrums , we are starting new with new reputation " . she warned him with a glare .
Klaus chuckled amusedly as he patted her back , " I'm only pointing all our options , now . don't worry or over think , we got you love " . he stated with a tender kiss to her nose .
She smiled at him and hugged him tighter pressing her face to his chest and mouthed a quite , " thank you " . over his heart , he replied by a kiss to her head .
Moments later Elijah entered the Room and bent over to examine her , " how are you Dearest ? " . he asked her worriedly .
" I'm better now , sorry for worrying you . and Thank you for helping us " . Hayley answered him with a grateful smile , Elijah just smiled at her and pressed her kindly .
" will this be enough insensitive to return to the abattoir ? " .
The two Mikaeslons waited for her reply with clear interest , she bit down on her lower lip and shoke her head at them Elijah's shoulders dropped and fire ignited in Klaus eyes , " I want too , but I can't leave them after this . especially at time like this , I already failed them by not taking action and helping " . she reasoned apologetically .
" you can't stay here either , it's not save . you should understand that the guy was working for someone " . Klaus reasoned back . " they tried to assassinate you once already " .
" I think there is more to this than meet the eyes , I just can't remember what ..." . Hayley informed the two with a rub to her temple .
The two brothers nodded thoughtfully , " I have the same though , this was too direct too simple " . Klaus hummed thoughtfully .
Elijah nodded in agreement and waved to the outside where oliver was railing the wolves up , " and it paint the vampires as the proprietors , exactly what our enemies would want " . he finished for his brother .
Just then James made his way to Klaus and reported calmly , " sire , we searched around after the first explosion , to try and Gather trails or evidence as you ordered "
" Did you find something ? " . Klaus Demanded him curiously .
James hesitated before answering , " we found nine Hidden explosion's in the clearing , Amanda burned out the circuits disabling them just on time . the wolves are disposing of them as we speak and are searching for any other hidden one's " . he replied carefully .
The two Original's turned to Hayley worriedly , and Relaxed once they noticed that instead of panic or fear her eyes shone with ruthless fury .
" I want you to show those bombs to our friends in the underground , I want to know , who made them ? , and for whom ? . I want information as soon as possible " . Klaus ordered him and the vampire speed off with bow .
" you brought Amanda and James here ? " . Hayley asked the two incredulously .
" as precaution , we were not sure what type of emergency you need us for and if we will need witchly intervention , good thing we did " . Elijah answered her calmly and she nodded .
The three of them made their way out to converse with the wolves . they found Jackson and oliver fighting , " Look , we can't just let them get away with this " . oliver argued heatedly .
Jackson turned to him and called out coolly , " We don't even know who's to blame " .
Oliver scoffed before pointing at Klaus and Elijah and shouted back , " The hell we don't ! They were the one responsible And if we don't fight back , they'll just do it again and next time their precious wolf won't be here for them to spare us " .
Hayley's and Jackson's eyes were on fire Hayley was about to make her way to him , but was stopped by Klaus who pushed her gently to Elijah who tucked her protectively to his side . he made his way to Jackson who was glaring the defiant and angry oliver to submission .
" great show you put for us here , you are right . we only care about you because of Hayley and my child if not for them I would have either killed you all or run you off after all your pack have centuries long feud with my on . but here I'm feeding and supporting you wasting my money and political capital fighting for your ungrateful hide's , thinking of ways to empower you . if I want you dead I would kill you myself , if Marcel want you dead he would hunt you down like he did more viciously than before . you did this to yourselves and we are once again forced to come to your aid " . he said with calm derogatory tone with his hands behind his back .
" what have you and your people done for me and Andrea but exhaust us ? , you may not know but you don't even register as a threat in the other factions radar . there is only one person of importance living in this swamp " . he stated with finger pointed at Hayley , " don't go and inflate yourself worth needlessly , I would find out who is behind this and once I did ... " . he trailed off with a chilling smile .
" you Kenner's , follow us . we need to talk " . he ordered Jackson and Mary and waved the elders in .
The Bayou :
Hayley accepted the herbal tea from Eve with a small smile and a quite ' thank you ' , " what are we waiting for ? " . one of the Elders asked .
" an important guest , you wanted prove that the Vampire's are not behind this . I'm bringing it yo you " . Klaus stated calmly as he passed her a pastry that Amanda prepared and brought with them .
She looked around the shack nervously , the two Mikaeslons Brother's occupied her two sides . across from her is Jackson with Mary and the Elders to his left and right with Eve , Clarisse and Alpha Clark , Alpha Blake and Alpha Osborne who represented the other alpha's and their packs wolves in the Bayou who nearly died today .
" I heard about the turbulent political climate in New Orleans , it never crossed my mind that it's this serious " . alpha Valerie started calmly with a sip from her teacup .
" turbulent is a word to describe it , we never thought that it will spill to the bayou and to you by extension " . Elijah explained apologetically .
The three alpha's shared a look before alpha Clark replied , " we understand the circumstances were against you , but we would like to remind you that we are guests here and it will not reflect will on us to involve ourselves in your conflicts . it will break the rules of our Specie " . he stated apologetically to Hayley and Jackson who smiled understandingly .
" we know that , and we don't expect you to fight our fight's . thank you for keeping to our agreement " . Jackson returned calmly .
The three alpha's smiled at him with relive and slight guilt .
" I heard you are all here for my daughter ? " . Klaus cut in , with his usual domineer . " what do you want with her ? " . he demanded curiously .
This time it was Jeremy's turn to answer and he did so with a shrug , " nothing but to see her , you should understand that if your daughter is truly as unique as the ancestors claim she is , that she will one day assure a new age for us where we will all be united as one " .
" you do realise that you are putting too much pressure and expectations on a child that isn't even born yet " . Elijah warned them with a displeased frown .
" it's not the child that we have our expectations on , it's her parents that we Hope that will do their best to Ally us all together " . alpha Clark countered with a smile to the two confused patents .
" what !? " . Hayley asked him confusedly , just as Klaus leaned in with bright calculative eyes as he demanded , " please , explain to us what you mean by that ? " .
The three alpha's exchanged a look before turning to the curious wolves and vampires in the room , alpha Osborne took it upon Herself to explain , " we asked around about you before coming here , trying to understand you a little you can say . one of the rumors we heard was that prior to your return to this city and your subsequent saving of Andrea from the Witch's you were nothing but strangers , now seven months later you are as close as ... Good friends " .
" what does that have to do with anything ? " . Jackson asked her incredulously .
" this child had already achieved piece for your pack , it allied your main line with earth mist powerful family . it linked you with other of the seven original bloodlines , with Andrea's mother relation to the Barry's line through her mother that I'm sure they will be Happy to know their granddaughter had survived . now you have connection through three powerful lines , we are here to offer our alliances to you on the condition that you two unite the seven Original's line and our entire species Together " . alpha Clark stated calmly with his fingers interlaced infront of him .
silenced filled the room as everyone stared at him with wide overwhelmed expressions , " do you even know what you are proposing ? " . one of the elders asked him with a trembling voice .
The three alpha's smiled at him confidently , " why them ? " . Elijah asked him curiously .
Alpha Blake turned to Klaus with a smile as he addressed him , " a thousand years ago your father was a very respected wolf he was an outstanding man and a very powerful alpha , his leadership and reputation has gained him the title of a king of wolves . and if he lived long enough to marry his children off like he planned for them he would have managed what the ancestors had long wanted and united our specie under one leadership " .
Klaus listened to him with clear intrigue , as the others waited for him to continue with curiosity and fascination , " his death had put an end to century long plan's your grandfather's and great grand father and his father has invested on and excited carefully , they had planned to join their line with the labonair line to give ligemacy to their claim . it also started our feud with vampires which lasted until now . with your name and reputation your family power and your daughter as symbol for a new start , the assuring of a new age and a symbol of Hope and prosperity just as the ancestors intended her to be , that will be incentive enough for you to give her a better future " . Alpha Clark continued passionately .
Everyone looked shocked and overwhelmed by the three alpha's word's and deep in thought over them , especially the two Mikaelson brothers . Hayley looked the alpha over with a frown and demanded cautiously , " and you will just pass off your title and power this easily !? , forgive me if I can't believe that " .
The three alpha's gave her a patronizing looks , " definitely not , but for our survival and our lines future we are willing to share , think of it as seeking a greater power " . alpha Clark stated with a smirk and conniving glint in his eyes .
The three stood up before making their way to the door , " think about it , we will come to you again once the little princess is born " . Alpha Blake said before the three left with a respecting nod .
Hayley exchanged apprehensive looks with the two Mikaeslons brothers and Jackson , but before they can discuss the new development James lead Marcel in followed by a furious oliver .
The crescent wolves jumped to their feet's , Hayley gave Klaus an angry glare but he only smirked at her and ignoring the hostile glares and growls of the crescents he waved him to sit across from . " marvel , excellent . just on time , Come on in. Have a seat. I'd offer you a drink , but I can't grantee that it won't be poisoned with vervain " . he welcomed him happily .
Marcel rolled his eyes at him and replied with his own smirk , " you would love that won't you " . before the smirk was wiped off as he urged him . " well come on , get on with it , the sooner I'm done with this the sooner I can leave this place unscathed " .
" how did you get in here ? , why are you even here if not to seek death at our hands ? " . Jackson demanded hatefully .
Marcel looked him over before he nodded to Hayley , " I'm here cause Klaus asked and I wanted to check on Hayley , the quarter is already buzzing with what Happened two hours ago , my friends here warned me that someone is trying to blame me for things that I didn't do like they did before " . he gestured to Klaus who's smirk widened in return .
By now Jackson was foaming in the mouth as he splintered the table with his fists he tore the arm of his chair and gripped it as stake in his hands , " You want to talk ? , then you talk and I will stick this into that black pit you call a heart " .
Hayley moved and placed a restraining hand on Jackson shoulder halting him halfway from where Marcel was seated watching them with a calm expression , " Marcel , were you and your men behind today's attack ? " . she asked him softly .
" oh , he damn well was and you know it . kill him jack don't listen yo his Bullshits and lies " . oliver Growled angrily .
" shut up oliver " . Hayley growled warningly , before turning back to Marcel , " I'm warning you , if you don't answer me Truthfully I won't stop him from killing you " . she addressed Marcel with a steely glimmer to her eyes .
" you can't be serious , are you really going to lesson to his lies !? " . oliver shouted in disbelieve .
" I'm curious to hear what he have to say , after all he knew better than to come to our home and expect to leave it alive , there is a reason behind his confidence " . Hayley answered him curiously .
" yeah , the two pricks behind you for that matter " . oliver sneered at her , before he took out a hidden stake from his Jacket and moved towards Marcel with obvious killing intent .
He was stopped by Mary who strained him with the help if Clarisse , " well , talk then " . Jackson ordered him agitatedly .
But Marcel didn't turn to him he was staring at Hayley with a secretive smile as he commented , " you are one tough girl . a lot like your dad in that way.Oh, yeah . I knew him . I knew your whole family curtsey to Klaus behind you . In fact , if you knew them like I did , you'd know just how many enemies they have . Back in the nineties , it was the Crescent wolves who took over the city . Or , tried to . Theylivedto throw down , and they were good at it , too . They didn't care who they killed as long as they got morepower ".
"So the Crescent curse was your way of stopping them ? Howheroic " . Hayley asked him surprisingly calm .
Marcel waved at wolves around them meaningfully , "It was either that or kill them all , and I'm not big on indiscriminate slaughter . See, I have this thing aboutkids " .
HAYLEYlooked back at Klaus before Returning to him with a knowing look of her own , "So I'veheard " . she returned still as calm as before .
Marcel chuckled as he leaned back on his chair and pointed at her as he spoke , "Oh , you did more than hear about it ,AndreaLabonair. You're living proof of that " .
Silence filled the room and was cut by Eve and Clarisse incredulously shouts of , " what !? " .
"Tell me something , Marcel . Did you kill my parents ? " . Hayley asked him expressionlessly .
Marcel shock his head at her with a sympathetic look , " There wasinfightingamong the wolves . Your folks were laying low . Somebody turned on them . I honestly don't know who . I got there afterwards , found you in yourcrib " . he told her sadly .
" why !? , why did you give me away to father Kieran and then to Foster family ? . you could have used me as a leverage over the wolves " . Hayley asked him with real curiosity .
Marcel gave her his soft smile that he reserved for his close family and friends , " because you were innocent of all of that mess , and you are still so . you are with a child for god sake " , he answered her Truthfully , " lookthe guyon the bike ? The bomber ? Word around is , he had a gambling problem . Owed money to thecasinos...moreimportantly , to the humans who run them" . he informed them with a sigh , he gave Klaus a nod who returned with a thankful one , " I'm out of here Guy's , call me if you need me " .
He stopped by the door and gave Hayley one last smile , " I'm glad that you are safe Hayley , do call the girls before they storm the bayou " . he left with those last words .
Klaus gave the surprised wolves a pointed look before following after him with a kiss to Hayley's cheek , " just call if you need me love , I will look around for answers I promise " . he whispered to her softly and she nodded tiredly .
Elijah followed with a soothing smile and a kiss to her other cheek , " you should rest , we will take care of this . whoever is behind this will not get away " . he promised her and she smiled at him Thankfully .
Hayley stood in the silent room for a few minutes after they left looking distractedly at the floor before leaving the room without a look back followed closely by a worried Eve .
The two Kenner's and the elders exchanged apprehensive looks but none if them spoke or noticed a furious and determined oliver leave .
He walked passed them into a secluded area and took out his phone , with a look around he dialed a number and once the call was answers he whispered coldly , " the plan didn't work , Jackson is not making a move neither are the others . I have a few of them already agreeing with me give me time and everything will be set for our plans " .
A pause and an answer from the other line he answered with a look to the shack , " I'm not backing down not after all of this , I'm ready to take things into the next stage . let's give them war " . he hissed vehemently .
