While you Hope have been sucking face with Frodo when not training, hanging out with my sister or fighting off the monster of the week. Another thing since I now have your undivided attention Jo you promised a twin's day and that was before we killed the Oni which was 6 months ago roughly. A lot has happened since then but each time I have brought it up or blocked off a day for us you have either forgotten or asked to reschedule. You're not off the hook either Mikaelson since it's partially your fault my sister is lacking in being a decent sibling. You both would know what I have been reading for the past week if either of you had bothered to simply ask or even look up from your own little bubble of self-importance! Now I am off to do more research that doesn't involve dark magic, or your weird friendship being waved in my face," Lizzie says in an irritated annoyed tone before storming out of the twin's room /p

We had long promised when we were little to each other that no matter how many friends or significant others came we would always have our twin bond and when that was taken away it was our twin days. The twin bond the best comparison would be a sire bond except it was not created out of gratitude or love and we couldn't force the other to do what we wanted. But the bond allowed us to always find each other and if one of us was physically hurt we would be able to feel it even if it was as small as a paper cut. The twin bond allowed us to feel each other's magic and if we were lucky if one of us got a boost in magic the other would get a boost. There was a downgrade in the sense that if one of us was drained the other could feel it and our magic would slowly try to help the other. My bio mom told me that no other twin in the Gemini coven had a twin bond like Lizzie and me. Then again none of the other twins throughout the history of the Coven were both siphon witches. If anything, one twin might be a siphon witch while the other twin would have been born a regular witch." Josie explains before being cut off by a question /p

Hope asks curiosity in her tone /p
p style="border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 15.12px; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'GNU Unifont', Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; vertical-align: baseline; list-style: none; margin: 1.286em auto; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5; color: #2a2a2a;""My Uncle Luke and Aunt Liv were regular witches, but they were only born to take the position of head of the coven away from my Uncle Kai if he were to have beat my bio mom in the Merge. Uncle Kai was a siphon witch, and he was locked in a prison world at age 22 before doing the Merge with my bio mom who was a regular witch. He ended up escaping and completing the Merge with Uncle Luke since they were both 22 at the time. Uncle Kai became the head of the coven and since he was angry at the coven, he killed himself killing everyone in the coven. The Merge makes you the head of the coven but also links you to every member of the coven so if you die everyone goes with you. The exception being kids under the age of 2 and if you are a siphon witch who drank vampire blood right before the coven leader died. Uncle Kai killed himself with vampire blood in his system so while he came back to life and still had full access to magic and all the powers granted to the leader of the Gemini coven everyone else died. Siphon witches who die with vampire blood in their system become hybrids called Heretics. They have all the regular vampire abilities and weaknesses, but they can still perform magic. Uncle Kai became a Heretic and was not happy that Lizzie and I survived the death of the coven. When he escaped yet another prison world, he came for us. We were 8 years old at the time and Aunt Bonnie was able to lock Uncle Kai into another prison world with our help. Once Lizzie and I complete the Merge the victor will have the power to destroy the prison world that holds Uncle Kai ultimately killing him. With Uncle Kai gone the only other blood relative that is of Gemini blood is Valerie Tulle she is the only other still living Heretic. But getting back to your original questions, Lizzie and I lost our twin bond at age 10 when she was kidnaped." Josie explains /p

The breaking of that bond was cold and sharp and then I noticed I couldn't feel Lizzie anymore like she just disappeared. I don't know what happened exactly, but she came back with a broken hand covered in blood and forever changed. Rumor, was she killed the guy who tortured her before my mom and Aunt Bonnie found her to rescue her. Lizzie became paranoid and thought that everyone could be the enemy after losing the twin bond. I asked her multiple times what happened, but she didn't want to talk about it. I just wanted some space and to get her to focus not so much on trying to be my protector. When she noticed that I liked you I lied to her and then to solidify the lie I anonymously posted her mental health diagnosis in the common room where anyone could see it and read it. I regretted it immediately but by then it was too late. I took it down, but it was out, and everyone started to call her evil or crazy. To get back at them she became an icy bitch to everyone."

For all of Lizzie's outward appearance she doesn't actually let a lot of people in. No one sees her the real her, the one that would do just about anything to get me to smile or laugh when I was having a bad day. I haven't seen that version of my sister since before the twin bond was broken. I mean she shows glimmer of it every now and then especially when we have our twin days. So, when you offered friendship, I jumped on it I mean I still had a little crush on you, and I knew Lizzie would not try to win you over with the lies I unintentionally spread. When I finally came clean about the lie's god, she was so furious I thought for sure she would never forgive me. But she surprised me by forgiving me and encouraging me to win Miss Mystic Falls. I could see the version of my sister that I loved so much returning and especially with how she saved us from the triad soldier guys. When you jumped into Malivore I was lost. Penelope sold my sister out to the enemy. I feared that all the progress that she had made to be a better person would go out the window when she came back from being tortured. To some extent I was right, but I was also wrong because then we all got our memories back of you. Lizzie went out of her way to bring Landon back so that he could give us a straight answer. While I didn't exactly approve of Lizzie getting together with Sebastain, she gave me all the space I have asked of her and gotten me cookies every now and then since Landon broke up with me. She's right to be mad at me. I have doubted her on many things but when it really comes down to the important stuff, she keeps her word, and her actions speak even louder."

When the Croatoan revealed that Lizzie knew about how to kill Malivore I was angry at her. Then when I next saw her, I told her to go retrieve Landon. I never even told her thanks for bringing Landon back. Once you and I made up its kind of how Lizzie described I was caught up in having my best friend back and having Landon back I forgot about her. I also didn't like that Lizzie got together with Sebastain but more for the fact he toyed with her emotions and still she went out with him. God are we terrible people Josie?"

Also to answer Hope's question I died more than 3 times. Let's see shot with both an arrow and a gun. The arrow was because she just wanted to hear me scream in pain. The gun shot actually killed me. I was stabbed to death similar to how I killed the Hobbit. I had my neck snapped and I was beaten to death with a crowbar joker style. Ryan was a fan of DC comics, specifically Batman. Oh this one was super painful and I am glad we don't live in the dark ages burned alive. Safe to say I hate the smell of burning flesh. Another painful one I do not wish on anyone Game of Thrones skinned alive can safely say I hate torture dungens. Oh and the final one I got my literal heart ripped out of me. No clue how the ring helped me grow back a heart but hey it regrew all my skin and beautiful long locks of hair so guess I can't complain much. Why are you all looking at me with shock?

Josie was in the middle of talking with Professor Vardemus when she got transported to a prison world courtesy of Alyssa finding the ascendant and being influenced by the Necromancer. Lizzie had just finished cleaning her new self-inflicted wound when she was transported to the same prison world as Josie. The twins find Alaric is there and that Alyssa stole the ascendant from Alaric's old office now Professor Vardemus's office. Hope gets a gut instinct that something bad just happened to Lizzie and rushes to find her. MG figures out that Alyssa sent the twins and Alaric to the 2018 Prison World. Hope and MG rush to figure out how to save the twins. Kai tricks Josie and Sebastian tries to force Lizzie to become a Heretic. Josie breaks the sand clock, the Mora Miserium becoming Dark Josie to get everyone out of the crumpling 2018 Prison World. Sebastian sacrifices himself to make sure Josie could leave the prison world. Hope chains Kai in the stables as she goes to run and rescue Landon from another monster. Once out of the 2018 Prison World Alaric finds Kai and decapitates him with a sword. Emma suggests a group therapy session by use of the Chambre de Chasse therapy box. /p

Hope acknowledged the fact she wasn't that great of a friend to Lizzie after Landon came back. I know the Cerburus monster was earlier in season 2 but I wanted Lizzie to reveal to the super squad the fact that she died multiple times. Josie and Hope's attempt at apologizing to Lizzie was a disaster but hey at least they found out that Lizzie was working with a god to break the Merge curse. Jen asked Lizzie out and said she would wait for Lizzie. Lizzie struggles with her identity and the hurt that Josie's words inflict. Lizzie also feels so much guilt for Dark Josie happening. I wanted Hope to wake up without Landon kissing her awake like a fairy tale. Sorry I skipped through Lizzie reuniting with Sebastain and Josie meeting up with Kai Parker. Another thing is I liked Jen from season 4 and really just wanted Lizzie to have a friend that wasn't a dick to her or was over the top in love with her like MG. I also found it strange that MG still hated Sebastain but never admitted to Lizzie that he liked her romantically. I also skipped all of season 3 because most of it was slow and kinda boring in my opinion. I mean season 3 built up to Hope dying and becoming a fully activated tribrid just to kill Malivore possessed Landon at the very beginning of season 4. Another thing I found the Necromancer annoying and also didn't feel like giving him a redemption arc. Sorry to you Ted fans or Necromancer fans./p
