Note: First part of the story comes from the show

"I'm not going anywhere, Klaus."

"Whoa, D, today is not the day," Marcel said.

He rushed down the steps to separate Davina and Klaus, but just as he reached them Davina twisted her wrist, snapping his neck.

"Actually," Davina said, "I think it is."

She stepped over Marcel's body and inched closer to Klaus. He chuckled.

"Looks like it's just you and me now, Klaus," she said.

Klaus shook his head and picked up a flower from the courtyard.

"You forget yourself."

He toyed with the flower in his hands.

"You're not as powerful as you once were, Harvest girl."

Klaus crushed the flower and smirked at Davina.

"Doesn't mean I can't still kick your ass!" She said.

Davina thrust her hand in front of her and threw Klaus across the room. The petals from his crushed flower gently fell to the ground as he crashed through the doors of the compound. Tiny shards of glass pricked him, causing him to bleed. Davina smiled as she walked toward him, but he sped away and knocked her against the wall. Drips of blood rolled down her forehead.

Klaus walked toward her and wiped a drop of blood away with his finger.

"Such hubris," he said. "And from one who bleeds so easily."

Davina shook her head.

"You talk such a big game, but you couldn't even kill Mikael when you had the chance! He was right about you, you know? You're weak."

Davina laughed, but Klaus grabbed her hair and bit her neck. She screamed until Klaus started convulsing. Once he fell to the ground, Davina wiped the most of the rest of the blood from her face. After feeling a hand on her shoulder she jumped back.

"It's impressive," Kol said. "What exactly did you do to him?"

"I channeled dark objects through my blood to poison him." She pointed to Kol's wrists. "How did you get free?"

"Oh, it's a long story."

Kol stopped to rub his wrists and then put his hand on Davina's shoulder again.

"Better question is, if he's not dead, then what are you going to do when he recovers?

"We have an hour, maybe less. Enough time to chain him, bleed him, and dump him in the river."

Davina approached Klaus's body, but Kol reached out to stop her.

"That's a bit harsh, isn't it?" He said.

"Since when do you care what happens to Klaus?"

"Kol is with us now."

Davina turned around. Marcel was up and rubbing his neck.

"We're going to be going up against Esther, assuming Klaus is upright," he said.

Kol shrugged his shoulders.

"Look, Nik is a pain in the ass, but well, she's a problem for us all," Kol said.

Davina stomped her feet.

"Klaus is the problem! I don't give a damn what happens to Esther."

"You will. Even if I have to make you give a damn."

Marcel zoomed in front of Davina and grabbed her arm.

"This isn't a one lady show. If we want to make the Quarter safe we all have to work together. I'm even willing to work with that slime ball."
Marcel's eyes wandered to Kol.

"Hey, I'm no slime ball!"

"Shut up, Kol. Davina and I need to have a discussion."

Marcel began dragging Davina to the gate.

"Kol, help me!"

"Mate, the lady doesn't want to go –"

"I said, shut up, Kol."

Marcel showed his fangs, and Kol backed away. He closed his eyes and started muttering an incantation, not noticing that Josh had arrived in the courtyard.

"I brought what you asked for, Marcel," Josh said, holding a small bouquet of flowers.

Upon hearing Kol's spell, Josh rushed toward him and shoved the flower in his mouth. As Josh threw the remainder of the flowers to Marcel, Davina opened her mouth in horror, giving Marcel just the window he needed to thrust them in. Kol coughed.

"Seriously, mate? Lobilia? You didn't need to put me out of commission. I can play nice," Kol said.

Marcel laughed.

"Somehow you and playing nice don't fit well in my head."

Kol stuck his tongue out at Marcel as Davina stomped on his foot.

"Marcel, how could you? I knew what I was doing!" She said.

Marcel picked her up, put her on his shoulder, and proceeded to carry her out of the Mikaelson estate after baring his fangs once last time at Kol.

"Any plan that involves snapping my neck is a clear sign to me that you don't know what you're doing."

"Kol! Kol!"

"D, Kol's not going to get you. He's too busy freaking out over the lobelia," Josh said.

Davina threw her head back and saw that Josh wasn't lying. Kol was alternating between chanting incantations and cursing.

"KOL!"

He looked up.

"I'll come for you, Davina. Just need to get my magic back. Mortal body you know, don't want to be around vampires without protection."

Davina turned around and started to cry. Josh wiped the tears off her face as Marcel continued to carry her to his place in Algiers.

"D, it's not so bad. The effects of the lobilia will wear off in a few hours," Josh said.

"But why, why did you have to drug me with lobilia?"

"Uhh…" Josh backed away.

"Please don't make me tell her," he whispered in a voice so low only Marcel could hear.

Marcel nodded to Josh.

"Sorry, Davina. You'll see when we get to my place," Marcel said.

The rest of the walk to Algiers was silent except for periodic sniffles from Davina. Once the trio was in Marcel's apartment, Marcel dropped Davina off on the couch, and he and Josh stood facing her with their arms folded.

"Young lady, can you imagine my worry when Josh called me and told me that you snuck out?" Marcel said.

"But Marc-"

"Or how about my worry when I saw you storming into Klaus's front yard picking a fight with him?"

"Marce-"

"Or my worry when I woke up, my neck as stiff as a street post, and I saw you with dried blood on your face?"

Davina looked down at the ground, but Marcel grabbed her chin and made her look at him.

"Do you remember what I told you a few weeks ago?"

"But Marcel, I won. I beat Klaus. Don't you see?" She said.

Marcel shook his head.

"I said, do you remember what I told you a few weeks ago?"

Josh turned around and started walking toward the door.

"Josh, no need to leave," Marcel said. "Since Davina seems to be having a memory lapse why don't you fill her in on how you felt when you discovered she was gone after you were talking with Aiden?"

Josh looked at Davina and frowned.

"Well, Marcel, I felt crappy and scared for Davina, which is why I called you."

Marcel nodded.

"I know, Josh. You see, Davina and I had a conversation about what would happen if she did something dangerous."

Davina's eyes widened.

"Marcel, don't! This doesn't qualify! I didn't need anyone to save me. I wasn't hurt!" Davina said.

"You weren't hurt? You had blood dripping down your head!"

The lights in the building rattled. Marcel walked over to Josh.

"Josh, since Davina won't tell you, I'll tell you. I told Davina that if she did something dangerous again, she would get a spanking with her pants down. What she did qualifies as something dangerous doesn't it?"

Davina hid her face in a pillow.

"Please, Josh. Just leave," she said.

Josh looked at Davina shriveled in the corner of the couch, and he instantly understood what Marcel had said about how difficult it was to spank her last time. Then he remembered how she had snuck out, no, taken advantage of Aiden to sneak out. His heart fluttered and his fingers were sweating so badly he had to get Aiden to dial Marcel's number.

"Please don't hate me," Josh said. "But what you did was dangerous, and as your friend I can't lie about that."

"My friend? My friend? You're supposed to agree with me!"

Marcel shook his head.

"Sometimes the hardest part of being a friend is telling your friend that she's wrong," he said.

He took his belt out from the loops of his jeans, and Davina jumped off the coach. She sprinted to the exit, but Josh blocked the door. She started to chant, and Josh stroked her hair.

"Why? Why isn't it working?" She said as she stomped her feet. She looked up at Josh and remembered seeing him clutching the lobilia flower at the Mikaelson estate.

"Damn lobilia flower."

Marcel zipped over.

"I knew this was going to be hard," Marcel said. "For both of us. Which is why I had Josh bring the lobilia after he told me you snuck out. You earned this spanking, Davina, and you're going to get it. I'm not going to watch you almost commit suicide again trying to murder Klaus and Josh isn't either."

Josh nodded.

"Sorry, D. Please don't hate me," Josh said.

Davina started crying into Josh's shirt.

Josh nodded at Marcel, and Marcel started to unbutton her pants. Davina struggled, but she was no match for Marcel's strength.

"Please, please, Marcel. Let me keep my pants on, and let Josh leave. I don't want to him to see me like this."

Davina tried to push Marcel's hand from her pants, but he refused to let go.

"I'm sorry, Davina, but your pants have to come down," he said.

Davina cried. "But Josh?" She said.

Josh reached out for Davina's hand and squeezed it.

"I'm going to stay here, D. I'll hold your hand so it won't be as bad," Josh said.

"But –"

"No more buts, young lady. You disobeyed Josh as well as me, so you should just be thankful he's not giving you a spanking too," Marcel said.

Davina cried more into Josh's shirt.

"Thanks, Marcel. Make me into a bad guy," Josh softly muttered.

Marcel looked at Josh pleadingly.

"Sorry, Marcel. I know this is hard on you too," Josh said again so only Marcel could hear.

At Marcel's instruction, Josh gently walked Davina back over to the couch. Once she was there, Marcel reached back toward her jeans and undid the button. She put her hands over his.

"Do you have to, Marcel?" She said between sniffles.

Marcel took a deep breath, and pulled her pants down. Josh squeezed her hand as Marcel positioned her over the couch.

"Are you ready, Davina?" Marcel asked.

Davina sobbed and squeezed Josh's hand back. Josh nodded to Marcel, and he brought the belt down hard across her butt. She shrieked, and Josh dropped her hand to cover his ears.

"Josh, please grabs her hands again so she doesn't reach back. My heart can't handle making this any worse for her," Marcel whispered.

Josh took about of Davina's hands and squeezed them to let her know he was there.

WHAP! WHAP! WHAP!

Davina's cries became louder and after a few more smacks from the belt she was almost choking on her sobs. The spanking felt worse than last time, and she couldn't tell if it was because Marcel was hitting harder or if it was because the spanking had started on her underwear. Marcel saw she needed some time to recover, and decided that now was the time to see if the lesson had snuck in.

"Davina, can you tell me why you are getting this spanking?"

Josh rubbed her back and she sobbed.

"I-I disobeyed Josh and you."

Marcel nodded.

"And why else?"

"Because I chann-chann-channelled dark objects through my blood to poison Kl-Klaus and that was dangerous."

"You what?" Marcel said.

Josh stopped rubbing Davina's back.

"I swear, Marcel," Josh whispered, "I know nothing about this."

Davina tried to get up but Marcel forced her back down.

"What do you mean you channeled dark objects?"

Davina sobbed.

"That-that's how I got Klaus to the ground."

Marcel rubbed his head and tried to breathe deeply, but his heart beat kept getting faster.

"Davina, you could have died! Worse, you could have been horribly cursed and then died! I'm having a witch doctor examine you after this," Marcel said.

"But-"

WHAP! WHAP! WHAP!

Surprised by the belt, Davina's hands flew to her bottom.

"Josh," Marcel whispered, "you were supposed to hold her hands."

Josh mouthed sorry and took her hands again. Marcel took a deep breath. He stepped forward, and thrust Davina's underwear down.

"NO, MARCEL! NO!"

Davina tried to get up, but Josh held her into position.

"It's okay, Davina. I promise I can't see anything," Josh said.

Davina sobbed and Marcel brought the belt down three times across her bare bottom.

Having the belt against her underwear felt like fire ants, but having the belt across her bare bottom felt like the Devil's Star.

WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP!

Marcel brought the belt down until he saw that Davina had completely stopped struggling. Then he quickly pulled up her underwear and turned away, angry at himself for continuing the spanking for so long. Josh helped Davina put her jeans back on and let her cry into his shirt.

"It's okay, Marcel," Josh whispered. "Think of Klaus's face when he saw Davina. She could have gotten seriously hurt."

Marcel turned around and nodded at Josh. He walked over to Davina and tapped her on the shoulder. Once she turned around, he hugged her.

"I'm sorry I had to do that, D, but you left me with no other choice. You could have died," he said.

He lifted her chin so she was looking him in the eyes.

"I will not allow you to die or endanger yourself. If you do anything like this again, you can expect to feel my belt against just your bare skin the entire time, and trust me that won't be pleasant for either of us."

"I pro-promise, Mar-Marcel," Davina said between sobs.

Josh hugged Davina and Marcel, and the three stayed together for the next few minutes as Davina calmed down and her cries turned into sniffles. Marcel told Josh and Davina that he was going to call for a witch doctor to examine Davina's blood, and he stepped out.

"So I must be the worst friend ever, huh?" Josh said.

Davina laughed.

"How is what I said funny? I just practically helped spank you. You must hate me."

Davina hugged Josh.

"I don't hate you, Josh," she said. "We've been friends for too long, and it was pretty bad of me to use Aiden like that to sneak out. I'm sorry."

Josh ruffled her hair.

"It's okay, D. Just don't do it again. It hurts Marcel a lot when he has to do this to you, you know."

Davina frowned and resolved never to let the people she loves hurt again. As soon as she killed Klaus.
