Two weeks later

I have been working on my powers and spells ever since I found out that I am a witch. This morning, I went outside and checked on my garden that I have been working on for about a month now and discovered that a small amount of flowers had died due to dehydration.

I let out an annoyed sigh and scratched my head for a second. I then smile and went back into the house and came outside with my Grimoire.

I sat down on my knees in front of the dead flowers and opened the book, looking for the spell until I found what I wanted.

"Okay… Flower Revival Spell: A spell that channels Nature to and the Ancestors to revive dead flowers," I read out loud. Then I studied the words that I needed to say in order for the spell to work.

I closed it and set it aside. "Okay…" I cleared my throat and focus to relax.

Once I was able to relax, I closed my eyes and held my hands over the dead flowers.

"Belle la vie a cette fleur, maintentant." I then opened my eyes and saw that the flowers were still dead.

I let out a scoff. "Okay… I'm going to try again."

"Belle la vie a cette fleur, maintentant. Belle la vie a cette fleur, maintentant, Belle-"I stopped when I heard crinkling from the flowers and I opened my eyes, letting out a soft gasp.

The dead flowers came back to life. I touch it softly and let out a giggle. "Well….that really worked!"

I pick up my Grimoire and went back inside the house and put the Grimoire back in a safe place where no one could find it.

I then got ready for work.


At Rousseau's Bar

Omnificent POV

Kayla and Cami were working together, chatting about something when Klaus enters the restaurant. Kayla froze when she saw Klaus and told Cami that she was going into the kitchen to grab something. Cami nods, letting Kayla go into the kitchen while wiping down the bar.

Klaus smiles at Cami. "Hello, Cami."

Cami smiles back before her compulsion suddenly kicks in, and she frowns in confusion as she remembers everything that she was compelled to forget.

Cami was exasperated by this. "How is it that when you came up to me, and no one else is around, I suddenly remember that you just told me you're a vampire, and you're mind-controlling me? And then you leave, and then I go back to thinking you're just some hot guy with a cute accent and money to burn on your sprawling memoir?"

Amused, Klaus leans in and answers in a low voice. "Well, that's how compulsion works, love."

"Yeah, but what's happening? Is it hypnosis? Are my neurons being shut down somehow?"

"You're always the curious scholar. Let's talk about Marcel," Klaus says, gesturing at the bar. Cami and Klaus sit together. "You said you have a little information for me."

"He's bringing someone to the music festival tonight. A girl he's mentoring. Apparently she's going through a hard time. Rebelling against authority, anger issues, that sort of thing. I guess with my psych degree, he figured I could set her straight, but I said no."

"I'm going to go ahead and insist that you change your answer to Yes."

Cami stares at Klaus for a moment and frowns. "You're going to force me to do this, aren't you? Why even bother with politeness?"

Klaus sighs in frustration. "Because I like you. I like the way your mind works. Under different circumstances, I think we might be friends. However, I don't have the luxury of passing up tonight's opportunity. You see, in addition to being Marcel's rather potent secret weapon, this girl, Davina, is holding my brother captive. In other words—"

Klaus compels Cami. "The girl needs your help. Call Marcel. Tell him you'd be happy to oblige."

Kayla walks back in when she saw Klaus compelling Cami. She watches Klaus as he finished compelling Cami and he looks at Kayla.

"Well, hello, Kayla. How are you?"

Kayla forced herself to smile politely to Klaus. "Well, I'm fine. How about you, Klaus? The last time I saw you when Marcel threw the party."

Klaus smiles back at Kayla. "Yes, It was….what have you been doing for the last two weeks?"

Kayla pulls her hair up in a ponytail and leans against the bar towards to Klaus. "Oh…nothing really. Well, actually, I have been reading up information about the supernatural creatures."

Kayla leans back and smiles as she watches Klaus' face fall. "Isn't that interesting, Klaus? Me, learning about the supernatural creatures? I just found it so interesting. "

Cami notices the tension between Kayla and Klaus. "Is everything okay?" Cami asked as she stood up and walks back to behind the bar and stood next to Kayla.

As they continue to stare each other, Kayla breaks away and looked at Cami. "Okay, everything is fine, Cami. We are just chatting, right, Klaus?" She says, looking back at Klaus.

Klaus kept his temper as he smiles politely at Kayla. "Yes, everything is fine, Cami. I'll see you soon, Cami."

Cami nods as Klaus walked away and her memory of being compelled melted away.

"Well, Kayla, I gotta call Marcel and let him know that I'm fine with watching his girl tonight."

Kayla was surprised. "Oh, I thought you didn't want to babysit his girl?"

"Well, I just changed my mind; I think it would be nice to see Marcel after what happened at the ball."

Kayla nodded. "You like him…." Kayla teased and Cami laughs, hitting her with a towel but Kayla skipped away, giggling.

"Stop it now, Kayla!"

Kayla laughs again and grabbed the tray with the beers on it. "Back to work!"


Dauphine Street Music Festival

It's night time now. Davina smiles broadly as she walks down Dauphine Street in a white sundress, looking at all the people and listening to the music. Marcel and Davina walk into Rousseau's, which is teeming with people drinking and listening to a brass band play up front.

"So, it is everything you hoped for?" Marcel asked, amused at Davina's happy face.

Davina shakes her head enthusiastically and giggles. "Yeah!"

Davina spots a young boy yelling for a friend near the bar, whooping for the band members.

"So, we should probably go over the rules." Said Marcel and Davina lets out an annoyed sigh, turning back to him. "I won't talk to anyone about anything. I won't say anything about witches, or vampires, or Originals, or you."

Marcel nods at Davina and smiles, and she smiles in embarrassment in return.

"You said you weren't going to hover!"

Marcel looks at her incredulously, and Davina laughs.


Rousseau's Bar

The young boy Davina was watching earlier is on stage with another band, playing a fiddle. Davina continues to watch him intently. Over the bar, Marcel keeps an eye on Davina as he chats with Cami.

"It's good to see you. I was worried you thought I was some hothead after that display at the Masquerade."

Cami smiles pleasantly at Marcel. "We all have our hot-headed moments!"

Cami shrugs. "Anyway, I'm almost done here until clean-up, so the two of us girls can hang out if you need to schmooze, or whatever."

Kayla gets back to the bar and was counting her tips when she notices Cami and Marcel. She smiles at them, shaking her head. She knew that Cami had a huge crush on Marcel and hoped that it would work out between them….it would be much better than her dating Klaus.

Davina leans over to butt into their conversation. "You know, he was supposed to stop hovering like, ten minutes ago."

Kayla covered her laugh with a towel when she overheard Davina.

"See what I mean? Authority issues! I'll go talk to the mayor-he actually knows how to show some respect!" Marcel says exasperatedly to Cami.

Cami laughs as Marcel walks away and nods to Kayla. Kayla notices that Davina has been watching the boy for a while and Cami noticed it too.

Cami watches Davina staring at the boy and smiles as she approaches her.

"Soooo, what's his name? Hot guy with the fiddle?"

Davina smiles shyly at Cami. "Tim."

Cami smiles encouragingly to Davina.

Davina continues on. "I knew he would be here, he always performs at these kinda things."

"How long have you two known each other?"

"Since we were ten." Davina replied and Cami looks at her expectantly, and she continues. "I had to leave school, and I didn't get to say goodbye. So, I was just hoping to talk to him tonight."

The band finishes their song, and all the patrons of the bar whoop and applaud them. Davina continues to smile and watch Tim play.

Kayla came over to them. "Hey, Cami, I'm off. Are you sure that you'll be fine by yourself? I can stay and help with the clean-up?"

Cami shook her head. "No, you go home. I will call you if I do need your help. Hey, before you leave, I want to introduce you to Davina. Davina, this is my friend, Kayla. Kayla, this is Davina."

Davina turns to Kayla and smiles shyly at her. "Hi."

Kayla smiles at her. "Hello. I hope you're having a great time….and I see that you like the boy."

Davina started to blush and Kayla lets out a chuckle.

"Don't be embarrassed! He's a good looking boy, after all. Anyways, have fun and I do hope to see you around soon."

"Me too, Kayla. Thanks!"

Davina turns back and continued to watch Tim.

Kayla hugs Cami goodbye and walked off.


St. Anne's Church

Kayla's POV

After working at the bar all day and I was still wired up from the festival. As I walk down in the French quarter, I happen to notice the church in the neighborhood and stopped suddenly. As I stare at the beautiful church, there was a sign standing there. It was called St. Anne's Church and I realized that I hadn't been in a church for a long time. I felt peace from just looking at the church and wanted more so I decided to go inside.

As I walked inside, it appeared that it was very run-down inside despite what it had looked like outside. As I walk in the worship room, there was a priest who was cleaning up the mess. He briefly looks up at me before going back to what he was doing.

"Church is closed. If you want your horror fix, go take a ghost tour." He announces, not even breaking his chores.

I frowned at him. "Excuse me?"

He stops and stares at me. "I'm sorry. I thought you were one of those people who wanted to see the inside to get their horror fix."

He started to walk down to me. "I'm Father Kieran by the way."

We shook hands. "I'm Kayla Henderson. I'm sorry; I don't know what you are talking about."

"Henderson? Are you related to Sarah Henderson?"

I let out a chuckle. "Yes. She was my mother."

He had a somber look on his face. "I'm sorry about your mother. It was terrible. I knew your mother….we were childhood friends and also dated briefly in high school."

I smile softly at him. "Oh…That's good, I guess."

He lets out an awkward laugh.

Father Kieran sighs deeply as I notice a red stain on the nearby wall. I realize that it was blood and understood immediately what he meant by the horror fix.

I look back at him. "What happened here?"

He sighs again. "St. Ann's used to be the heart of the neighborhood. It's been abandoned for a while now…. Since the night of the massacre."

My eyes widen at his mention of the massacre here and I decided to touch the pew bench, which triggered the vision of the massacre.

A young, blond seminary student in the church, who murders several other seminary students by beheading them with a scythe, before ultimately killing himself in the same way, despite Father Kieran's pleas.

I let out a sharp gasp, coming back to the present. I realize that I was covered in a light sweat and felt dizzy. Father Kieran was busy, telling me what happened.

"Nine seminary students were killed….by one of their own…hey, are you okay?" He stopped suddenly when he noticed the look on my face.

"I need to sit down," I whisper and he immediately helped me to sit down on the pew bench, sitting down next to me as I sat down and closed my eyes to try to calm myself down.

"Do I need to get you some water?" He asked and I shook my head, folding my hands together.

The dizziness went away and I was able to look at him.

"I….I know what happened here now. It was your nephew…wasn't it?"

He was taken aback. "How…how did you know? It wasn't mentioned in the newspaper."

"I…" I let out a soft chuckle. "I get visions when I touch a certain object or a person, etc and it can show me the past or the present. I touched the pew bench and it was able to show me what happened here and I saw the whole thing. It's like….he just went crazy. I'm so sorry."

He nodded, leaning towards to stare at the altar. "You're a witch, aren't you?"

I didn't even try to deny it. "Yes… I just found out recently though. Apparently, my grandmother chose to raise me as a normal girl. She never told me about the witchcraft, the vampires, and the werewolves. I almost lost my…mind when I realized that they're real…not just legends."

He chuckles, nodding. "That can happen to anyone…. Why did you come back here?"

Father Kieran leans back against the pew bench, waiting for my response.

I let out a heavy sigh, leaning back. "The day that my granny died, she told me about what happened to my mom and that she didn't really die in the car accident…..that she was murdered." I say, looking at him.

He nods, folding his hands. "How did you feel about that?"

"I feel like that I'm in a confessional with you, Father," I said, chuckling. He smiled at me.

"I… when I first found out about my mom, I was confused. I was lost. I couldn't understand why she would tell me the truth about my mom's death. Was it guilt? I don't know. Was it….that she wanted to have peace so that she could go easily? Maybe. But it made me angry to find out about it. I had…all these emotions going through my mind that I had no time to deal with because I had to deal with my granny's death and her memorial service, then moving down here and now I am….dealing with being a witch, which I kind of don't know if I want to be a witch. I have no idea…I feel like I am on a train that just keeps going and it won't stop. That's exactly how I feel about it now."

The only thing that I do want to do is to find the son-of-a-bitch who killed my mom, just like you want to find out why…your nephew did it."

He stares at me then nods. "I still think about that day… about why he did it. It didn't make sense to me at all."

"I don't think it made any sense to anyone else, Father," I said, staring at the crucifix over the altar. Father Kieran clears his throat. I look back at his face from the crucifix.

"I'm going to leave you alone while I clean up this place. I'm trying to get it back in shape…"

I nod, giving him a soft smile. "Understandable, Father. I'll just sit here and think about anything. I just feel…at peace here, which is strange but that's what I feel now."

Father Kieran nods slowly at me then stood up. He then walks back near the altar and starts to do his chores again.

I sat here for a while, just watching Father Kieran cleaning and kept thinking about my grandmother. I could hear the music playing faintly in the background.


I started to get drowsy so I decided that I needed to go home so I stood up and almost stumble over as I felt a sharp pain hitting me suddenly in the head.

I grabbed my head with my hands, letting out a whimper. "No! Not now, please!" I whisper, falling down onto my knees on the aisle.

I could hear Father Kieran running to me.

"Kayla, what's wrong?"

Father Kieran touches my shoulder and I let out a sob, tortured by the pain.

"Oh god, no!" I let out a scream, the vision finally taking me over.


Dr. Paige sets the medicine cup on the table and starts preparing something. A group of intimidating-looking men walk into the clinic and whisper something unintelligible to Agnes. Hayley turns around to see Dr. Paige preparing syringe, then the doctor lunges at Hayley to inject her with it. Hayley grabs her arm and pushes it away from her, head butts the doctor to disorient her, and then stabs the syringe into the doctor's neck, causing her to pass out onto the floor. When the men in the lobby see what happened, they run toward the door, but Hayley manages to shut and lock it before they enter. One of the men rattles the doorknob as Hayley struggles to open the window to escape. When they finally get in, Hayley has already escaped and runs away from the clinic.


I let out a loud gasp, opening my eyes to Father Kieran holding me in his arms while Rebekah stood over us.

My ears were ringing and everything was in slow motion. "Hey, is she okay?" her voice distorted as she asked him.

He shook his head, responding back. "I don't know, we may need to take her to the hospital," his voice is distorted too.

I fought back against the nausea, letting out a pained gasp when I touch my forehead. My fingers were covered in blood as I move my fingers back from the forehead.

"Hey, don't touch your head. You hit your head when you had a seizure," his voice was slowly coming back to normal as I look up at him.

I let out a whimper as I tried to sit up, but he was trying to prevent me. "No, no, no, you need to rest. You hit your head pretty bad."

"I'm fine," I said, finally sat up. He passes me his napkin and I held it against my forehead to stop the bleeding.

"What happened? I asked him, still staring at Rebekah.

"You had a seizure. I tried to catch you from falling, but you managed to hit your head on the ground pretty good. I think we need to take you to the hospital."

"What?" I look at them in confusion. "Seizure? I don't…." I paused, remembering the vision. "Oh my god! Where's the…uh…the clinic?"

Rebekah looks at me in confusion while Father Kieran looks at me in surprise.

"You mean the Bayou clinic?" Father Kieran asked and I nod.

Rebekah let out a gasp. "Oh my god, Hayley!"

"Rebekah…they're going to kill her." I said to her and she started to leave quickly.

"Hey!" I call out at her and she stopped. "Let me go with you. I know what to do,"I said, standing up. She hesitated at first, then nods at me.

I gave the napkin back to Father Kieran. "Thanks. I'll see you around."

I ran out with Rebekah.


I am finally back, people! Sorry for being gone for a while, but I got every busy with finals and projects so I had to focus on them. Now I am happy to say that I will be walking in my graduation this coming week, so I am quite excited even I do have about two more classes to take this Summer but I am glad to be able to walk with my classmates in the graduation because If they didn't let me walk, I would have to wait until next Spring to walk in the graduation so that wouldn't be fair at all.

Anyways, I am putting this one up tonight and I am hoping to put another part up by tomorrow. Happy Mothers' day to all the mothers today and I hope you will get to enjoy your lovely Sunday! :)

I would like to thank my new followers:
