Rebekah's POV
As I drove quickly to get to the clinic, I kept looking over at Kayla, her eyes closed. She was breathing heavily, clutching her forehead.
"Hey? I have no time to take you to the hospital. You alright?" I asked, watching the road and passing around slower cars.
Kayla lets out a moan and looked at me with her light green eyes. "Yes, I'm fine. I just have a headache from the fall. Just keep driving."
She then pulls her hair up in a bun and examined her cut on the forehead in the mirror. She lets out a pained hiss as she touches the cut.
"Have you ever had a seizure before?" I asked, curiously. I knew that she was a witch, from what Klaus had told me so far.
She shook her head, then looked at me. "It has never happened to me before. I have had visions before but never had a seizure that was caused by a vision….I feel like that they're getting worse. I don't know what Klaus told you, but I—"
"I know that you're a witch. We kinda don't like the witches right now." I let out a scorned chuckle, passing another car.
Kayla was silent, pursing her lips in her thoughts before she decided to say something.
"Look, I know that I'm a witch, but I just learned about that recently. Like I just learned recently that there are vampires, werewolves, and hybrids….just like your brother, Klaus. And trust me right now… I don't like vampires too, considering that one of them killed my birth mother."
I look back at her in shock. "What?"
"I know. That was exactly my reaction when I found out. Look, I won't hurt you or anyone else… but your brother, Klaus? I don't trust him…. And I will hurt him if he goes after me…trust me on that. Wait! We're here!"
I look at the sign "Clinic" and we pulled in next to an empty car.
Kayla and I got out of the car quickly, running in the clinic.
It was empty.
Kayla started to run out of the back door, which was open. I chased after Kayla. "Hey! Wait!"
I call out after her.
"Damn it!" I let out a growl as I chase Kayla.
Omniscient's POV
The men who raided the clinic are still looking for Hayley in the woods behind the clinic, and they pass her, not seeing that she is hiding behind a tree. She runs up to them and kicks the first man she encounters in the gut before knocking him down to the ground. She jumps and kicks the second man down as well as she snaps his neck. A third man tries to attack her, but she grabs a knife from his hands and cuts his neck with it as she spins in the air. When a fourth man lunges toward her, she grabs his shotgun and knocks him to the ground, and kills him as she kicks him and beats him in the head with the butt of the shotgun.
As Hayley crouches into a defensive position on the ground, her eyes flash werewolf-gold as she looks around for any more threats. A large, burly man descends upon her before Hayley can react; his neck is snapped from behind by Rebekah, who has just arrived with Kayla.
Kayla was trying to catch her breath from running.
"Have to say, I'm impressed," Rebekah says, looking at the bodies around them.
"How did you find me?" Hayley asks, checking out Kayla.
"Your text got me halfway, Kayla here did the rest. Who are they?"
Kayla nods at Hayley and lets out a shudder as she stares at the dead bodies. She doesn't do well with the dead bodies.
Hayley shook her head. "Witches. Warlocks. Whatever."
Rebekah looks back behind her. She notices more men with flashlights in the distance heading toward them.
Rebekah looks back at Kayla and Hayley. "There are more of them. Run!"
Hayley reluctantly heeds her warning, which causes Kayla to grab her arm and they ran together.
Rebekah muttered to herself, "If I had a dollar for every mess my family has got me into…"
Rebekah gets shot in the heart with two arrows, which temporarily neutralize her and she falls to the ground. They both see her go down and watch in horror.
Hayley screams out, "Rebekah!" as Kayla lets out a horrified gasp.
All the sudden, Hayley is shot in the shoulder with an arrow, which seems to be coated in something that causes her to pass out and begins to fall to the ground but Kayla caught her in her arms in time.
Kayla tried to shake Hayley awake, but it wasn't working. She started to panic when she saw the men running towards them with the flashlights and the arrow bow. Kayla then knew that she had to protect Hayley and herself.
She quickly took a large vial of salt out of her bag and started to sprinkle something around them, to make a complete circle.
She looks up and realized that they were getting too close. She sat down next to Hayley and grabbed her into her arms.
Kayla took a deep breath and started to say something. "Phasmatus Ignitium Dos Ex Salvo, Phasmatis Ignitium Dos On Salvo, Phasmatis Ignitium Dos On Salvo!"
Kayla looked down at the line of salt as it sparked then burst into flames, which rushed around them in a complete circle. She lets out a relieved sigh and watched as the men begin to back away from the fire.
One of the men decided to try cross the fire, which causes Kayla to panic and prepare herself to say a spell.
"Ex Spiritum In Tacullum, En Terrum Incendium, Phasmatos Salves A Distum!"
Kayla knew that the spell worked because the flames begin to increase to the point of where the men had to back away due to the intensity of the flames. She couldn't see them anymore, but she could hear the men talking.
Kayla's POV
"Kayla… let Hayley go and we won't hurt you. After all, you are one of us," One of the men said and I shook my head.
I put Hayley down and control the fires down to the point where I can see them.
"No, I won't! You'll kill her. I'm not you at all! What kind of witches would kill an innocent girl?!"
One of the men lets out a laugh, like what I had said to them was so funny.
"Hayley is not innocent, witch. She's carrying a child…a child that would kill all of the witches."
I frown at them, looking back at Hayley then back to them. "You're lying. How could a child kill all of the witches?"
Another man came forward and stares at me. "Because she is carrying the hybrid's child. That child will be the world's first born hybrid."
It dawned on me that this is the Hayley, the woman who is carrying Klaus' child.
"You mean Klaus' child? Klaus, the original hybrid?"
The same man nodded. "Yes, Kayla."
"But why kill Hayley?"
"Because she is protecting her child and she killed our guys tonight. She deserves it."
I stare at them coldly. "I would never be like you guys…. I refuse. I am still protecting Hayley, regardless."
The same man steps backward, and all of them stares at me coldly. They were planning to kill me then because one of them raises his arrow bow at me.
"One last chance. Give us Hayley and we'll let you go."
"No!"
"Too bad. You would make a fine witch for us. Goodbye, Kayla."
We heard this loud howling from the forest and we looked into the woods suddenly. I saw a couple of yellow eyes peeking out in the darkness and suddenly, they burst out at the men.
I let out a scream and increased the fires around me to protect me and Hayley.
I could hear the men screaming in pain and their body parts being taken apart. I held Hayley in my arms as I continued listening to the bloody battle and kept whimpering as I wished that it would stop soon.
The screaming stopped suddenly and I let out a gasp, looking up slowly. The flames were still high so I focused on the flames without having to say a spell and brought it down slowly.
There were six werewolves watching me while baring their teeth at me. I put down Hayley gently and stood up slowly with my hands up.
"I….I won't hurt you guys. I…I'm protecting Hayley," I say, swallowing back my fear as I stare at them.
As I stare at them, six of them stopped growling at me and bow their heads down at me as if I was their Queen.
"W-…What?" I whisper to myself, confused about their reaction to me.
They then look up at me and ran off into the woods. I let out a shuddering sigh as I couldn't see them anymore.
I decided that we were safe enough to get the hell out so I wave my hand at the flames with a spell, "Suctus Incendia"
The flames went out, leaving the trail of smoke and I sat down, examining Hayley.
Her shoulder didn't look too bad, but I was concerned for her and the baby.
"Hayley, can you hear me?" I say, wrapping my scarf around the arrow that I grabbed from my bag. I didn't dare to try to take the arrow out of her shoulder because I was afraid that it would hurt her worse or cause her to get pissed off at me, which I didn't want in that case.
I heard something snap in the woods and my heart jumped into my throat, looking back at the woods.
"If you're here, please go away. I don't want any trouble. Please."
A blonde woman came into the sight, walking towards us. "I'm not going to cause you harm, I promise. We want to help you," she says, sitting down in front of me.
For some reason, I felt the calm presence from her and knew that I could trust her somehow. "Okay…. Who are you?"
"I'm Elizabeth," she says, smiling at me softly. "Oh dear, this looks bad. We can help her if you let us. You can come with us if you want to. We saw what you have done for Hayley tonight and we appreciate it. She's part of us after all."
I paused to think then nod to Elizabeth. Elizabeth smiles, then lets out a soft whistle. A man came out of the woods and walked to us. He nods at me and I nod back. He then picks up Hayley and started to carry her.
Elizabeth and I stood up and started to walk towards into the woods.
Omniscient's POV
Rebekah awakens in the woods of the Bayou after passing out from being shot in the heart with an arrow. She pulls out the arrows with a groan of pain and sits up to find five bodies surrounding her, all of which look as though they were mauled. Rebekah looks around in horror when she doesn't see Hayley and Kayla.
"What the hell?"
Rebekah gasps for breath as she pulls herself to her feet. "Hayley? HAYLEY?"
She looks around and discovered a burned circle on the ground. There were still smoking coming up. They must have been appeared when Kayla cast a spell. She looks around one more before moving on to find Hayley and Kayla.
Few minutes later
Rebekah is walking around and looking for clues as to where Hayley and Kayla could be. She sees the doctor passed out on a floor next to the used syringe. Suddenly, Klaus appears.
"Wow! You abandoned your quest for power to help out your family! Having an off day?" Rebekah retorted to Klaus.
"Who took her, Rebekah?" Klaus asked calmly.
"I don't know."
"What do you mean, you don't know? And who killed her attackers?"
"I don't know! I had an arrow in my heart. If it wasn't Hayley who killed them, then-"
Rebekah was cut off by wolves howling in the distance. Klaus looks at her and raises his eyebrows.
"Lovely. Maybe her cousins will know where she is," she says, walking out.
Klaus follows her outside, speechless. When they exit the building, they see Hayley stumbling with Kayla holding on to her, coming toward to them. Hayley's clothes were tattered and dirty while Kayla's clothes was covered in blood and dirt.
They both look dazed and exhausted as Klaus and Rebekah run toward to them.
"Hayley! What happened? Tell me what happened?"
Kayla lets go of Hayley, passing Klaus and sat down on the porch, resting her head in her hands. She felt so weak and sore.
"I can't remember," Hayley says groggily.
Klaus anxiously examines Hayley for any wounds.
"You've completely healed. There's not a scratch on you."
Hayley lets out a soft chuckle. "One of the perks of being a werewolf, remember?"
"No, not that fast," Klaus shook his head, scratching his head.
Rebekah runs over to Hayley and wraps an arm around her protectively.
"Leave her alone!"
Rebekah thinks for a moment as she walks with Hayley. "It's the baby. The vampire blood—Klaus' vampire blood—in your system. It can heal any wound."
Klaus turns and stares at her incredulously.
"Your own child healed you," she says to Hayley.
Klaus smiles at the thought as Rebekah turns the subject back to Hayley.
"How did you escape? Outnumbered, unarmed? Those men were ripped to shreds!"
"I—I don't know... All I know is that I woke up and here is Kayla watching over me….Kayla?"
Kayla looked up from her hands, staring at them. "All I did was to cast a spell… which prevented those… witches to kill Hayley. They tried to convince me to give her to them, but I refused. The next thing that I know, there was a bunch of wolves killing them. I… I don't have any ideas how we escaped, but… we were lucky."
She chose to leave out Elizabeth and the werewolves bowing down in front of her. It was still processing in her mind and she didn't want to tell them, not yet.
"She's right. I…I think it was the wolf. I think it's trying to protect me."
Klaus angrily points to Hayley. "The witches were supposed to protect you! When I get my hands on Sophie Deveraux—"
Rebekah interrupts Klaus, "It wasn't Sophie—"
Hayley had the final word. "It was Agnes."
Kayla looks up quickly at the mention of Agnes. "Agnes?"
Hayley looks at Kayla, nodding.
"Just great… great," Kayla whispers, shaking her head.
"Fine! Agnes, Sophie, it's all the same to me! I'll slaughter the lot of them!"
"Excuse me, you're talking about me too," Kayla pipes up at Klaus, staring at him coldly.
"I saved your girlfriend and your child, so you should be damn grateful that I didn't let those guys get Hailey. It could have been worse, trust me. So watch what you say, Klaus or you'll regret it," she says angrily.
Rebekah and Hayley looked at each other, noticing the tension between Kayla and Klaus.
"Or I'll regret it? What the hell are you going to do to me, love? Huh?" Klaus asked, staring at her coldly and was also smirking at her.
Hailey walks to the porch and sat down next to Kayla, feeling exhausted. Kayla just smiles at Klaus, focusing on her power.
Klaus suddenly felt himself sweating and was feeling very uncomfortable. Rebekah notices the sweat rolling down on his face and looks back at Kayla. "What are you doing, Kayla?"
Kayla lets out a soft chuckle. "Oh…. I'm boiling Klaus's blood. Doesn't it feel good, Klaus?"
Klaus lets out a soft growl as he struggled to stand. Kayla lets it go and Klaus felt good again, no longer feeling the bad effects.
"Now, that was my warning. Next time, I'll do much worse," Kayla says, leaning back on her hands.
Klaus growls again and was about to go after her when Rebekah stops him with her hand against his chest. "Not now. If you want to slaughter the whole witches, you can do it later. We do need Kayla….she is the only witch that will protect Hailey. I trust her… Now, you can let Elijah do it if you want to."
Hailey looks up quickly at them. "Elijah? Did you find him?"
Rebekah smiles at Hailey. "He's been in touch, and he has a plan. All he asks is that we take care of you."
Hailey smile back at her. "Hey, so…. Can we go home now? I'd really like to sleep for a few days…"
Hailey and Kayla stood up. Klaus nods with a smile at Hailey. When Hailey goes to walk, her knees buckle as she stumbles and starts to fall, but Klaus zooms over to catch her before she hits the ground and scoops her up in a bridal-carry in his arms.
"Ohh, I've got you, love. I've got you." Klaus whispers as he carried her toward their car.
"Hey, I'll take your car back to my house. You can pick it up in the morning," Kayla says as she walks with Rebekah.
Rebekah nods and gave her the car keys then walks off to Klaus' car.
Kayla jumps in Rebekah's car and starts it up, then started to drive back home.
St. Anne's Church
Davina is touching Tim's broken violin in her bedroom, still upset from tonight's events. She turns sadly toward her wind chimes in her window, and uses her magic to telekinetically make them play the song Tim played for her. She is startled when she hears a floorboard creak, and turns toward the sound. She walks toward Elijah's coffin when she suddenly hears Elijah's voice as he stands behind her, looking gray from not feeding for so long.
"It's all right, Davina. I don't mean you any harm, though I do think it's time we had a talk."
Davina is at first surprised, but after a moment, she smiles at him, and he smiles at her in return.
