Chapter 9

Klaus only became distant by the second, what I knew was Elijah had tried to talk to him otherwise. I was distancing myself from him too, things were worsening. My strength was worsening in between hours, my skin felt on fire. I needed to find Vincent, I didn't want to give into the darkness.

I looked at the light reflecting from the balcony, it's as if the blue light was feeding me this power. The power meant for my baby, This darkness I was starting to feel was similar to her own. She wanted me to give in, she wanted me to become what she was. "Elizabeth?"

I turned around to Hope, her face was mortified."Dad!"

"Why are you afraid Hope? I'm not going to hurt you."I said in an overly cheery way, I was doomed once to become her."Your daddy won't help."

Right when I said that Hayley rushed in, catering to Hope who seemed to tremble. A sharp pain hit me in the abdomen as if something was being carved into me. The air dropped around me, it was cold and dark. "Elizabeth?"

I couldn't be here, I couldn't risk harming anyone. I rushed out of the compound pushing past Klaus in the process, I couldn't allow myself to die with the darkness. I bumped into to someone nearly falling to the ground, Marcel. "I thought you were all long gone."

He had me held by the arms, his grip becoming tighter by the second. "I need to find Vincent."

"I'll take you."

With his vampire speed, it took me less speed to get there, I found Vincent at his church reading a small book. "I need your help."

He looked confused, placing the book down. Lucky for me Marcel stayed outside, he didn't trust me. His hand extended to the bump, there was the marking of a snake on it like some tattoo. He didn't have to see more to understand,"You were in the circle, of course, they wanted to use your child."He murmured, he looked up at me."I can't fix it, it won't be long till you give into it. The power your child is feeding off is making the process faster."

"I'm going to die sooner than expected…"

He placed his hand on my shoulder, there was no easy way to tell anyone that."It's a possibility, although if it wants your child to be safe it will use you longer."He glanced behind me."I fear you're not the only one it's using."

Dread came over me, not him."Elizabeth, the Hollow wanted all three of you there because of your power. It won't stop till it gets what it wants, you and the baby growing inside of you."

"Why him?"

He motioned me to sit, I did as told."The ancestors knew this child would be special unlike Francis, many thought Francis was it but he wasn't. This child will be powerful, the first immortal witch. It's the perfect vessel for the hollow, I doubt it hadn't seen it coming."

"Is there any way of saving them?"I wouldn't leave my son without its father, I wouldn't allow Klaus to fall into the darkness.

His eyes fell into a gaze, his fingers tapping against the wooden benches."I don't know, without killing it I don't believe I can."

I felt hopeless, soon the darkness would take full control and I couldn't save them."Promise me if you find a way to save them, don't save me. Don't waste energy, save them. Klaus may not be your favorite person but I cannot leave my baby without a parent nor I can leave Hope without her dad."

I was already doomed to death, there was no reason to save me. I needed to get away from New Orleans for a few hours, if Klaus and Marcel were being possessed by the same thing God knows what could happen. I took the excuse of needing to use his bathroom for water, I fled to Mystic Falls.

I stayed for hours sitting alone in front of where once Damon's body laid, my phone rang. It was the only sound in this area, aside from the eerie feeling it had in the middle of the evening. I decided to answer it.

"Elizabeth come home, hiding will not help us."

"I could of hurt Hope, Klaus. I'm good as dead anyway, I don't want to hurt you. I-"

He raised his voice."It does not matter, I talked to Vincent. There will be a solution, no matter what I'm always here."

"No Klaus, There will never be one."I started to cry at that point."I once told you I feared to become her, I fear I already am. I don't want to die knowing you saw me like this, save yourself and Marcel. No matter what he did he's good inside, and when I become her nothing will matter to me."

I could hear his breathing against the phone."We promised ourselves something once, you can't give up now. There's always solutions to everything, do you not care for my intentions?"

breathing was becoming harder by the second, I was failing him."I once told you we would reach our happiness when the rivers go dry, they'll never go dry. It's this deep-rooted darkness in me, a darkness I don't want you to see. I want to kill you, every single nerve in my body wants to kill you."

"Do not allow it to take over."

"But it already has, don't come for me. Forget about me, of our child. It's not safe for Hope, my child will be her destruction once the Hollow takes over. I wouldn't be able to live with that, I'm sorry."

I ended the call before I could talk anymore, I had to disappear completely from them all. I got up walking toward t road, when I was pulled back into a peaceful darkness.

{~No POV~}

Baltor walked into the Mikaelson compound with a limp Bloom in his hands, A beautiful brunette walked toward him. By the description that must be the hybrid who bared Niklaus Mikaelson's first child, he placed her on the nearest couch.

Hayley glared at him, suspiciously."Where did you find her? The Mikaelson's have been looking for her."

Baltor bowed, being polite as he could be."I found her in Mystic Falls, do not worry I put a sleeping spell on her. I'm Baltor, an acquittance of the lovely Elizabeth."His eyes lingered on her, she was already starting to move.

It was rather odd, his sleeping spell was strong enough even for her. His hand reached for the bump, it was cold. Cold almost as ice, it was dark and cold.

"I'll go call Elijah."The brunette left the area, it gave him enough time to see what was wrong with her.

"The hollow."A soft small voice murmured.

He glanced up at the small redhead child he had seen before, what did she mean by the Hollow."The Hollow?"

She nodded, placing her hand on Bloom's head."Last night I saw it inside of my dad, in a dream. Today I saw it inside of Beth, it wants them all."

Baltor nodded at the child, focusing his energy on the woman he loved. She opened her eyes, a glowing blue. It was like if lights were reflecting her own eyes, it was an eerie glare. "Stay back."He warned the child.

"Bloom?"

He had been created from darkness, he had explored the darkness. Yet the darkness he saw in her was unlike no other, she made Selene look like a walk in the park. Her eyes closed once again, a sense of relief washed over him.

He heard foot steps marching into the compound."May I ask who you are?"

He glanced behind him to meet with the man who stole her from him, the man who owned her heart now. Whatever had happened last night seemed to be in the man, yet no one seemed to notice it like he did.

He walked toward the man, behind the blonde Mikaelson was another male."I'm an acquittance of Elizabeth, I found her in Mystic Falls."

Niklaus was about to approach, Baltor blocked his way. "Whatever happened last night is taking over your child, I fear it's too late to save her."

Klaus glanced behind at his brother, keeping himself together."Get Vincent."

{~Bloom's POV~}

I opened my eyes, sitting up confused at where I was. I saw Klaus standing there with Baltor,"Klaus."

I saw him push past Baltor, kneeling by me."How are you feeling?Love."

I pulled him into a hug, the feeling of his arms in that moment washed away every awful feeling. I wanted this to last forever, I wanted to run away from all this darkness. I pulled away from him, cupping his cheeks."I don't want to hurt you, I don't want to kill you."

He took my hands off his face, placing them on top of my baby bump."You won't, we will save our child even when the darkness consumes us."His words made my eyes tear up."You don't know how much I love you, no darkness will take you from me. I will not allow you to die on me."

I glanced at Baltor, mouthing a thank you.

I laid in my bed, closing my eyes. Everything was eerier quiet at the moment, Klaus was with Vincent discussing somewhere in the compound from what I knew.

"Give into it my shadow self, the hollow wants you."

That voice, dark and mine. Yet it wasn't mine, it was Selene's.

"Klaus hates you for choosing it's vessel before you, he will soon anyways. Remember he once wanted you dead."

I opened my eyes to find her standing by the bed, I don't if it was my mind or she really was here. The cynical smile on her lips, glaring into my own eyes.

"You aren't real."

"Oh but I am, I'll always be here."She leaned in closer."You'll give into it, better I'll make sure you do."

Her hand wrapped around my throat, pushing more weight on it till I could no longer breath. I gathered all my strength to push her off me, then I realized she was no longer there. She stood by the balcony, motioning me with her hand to come.

I got up approaching her, it wasn't that I wanted to. It was a magnet pulling me toward her, She took my hand. Her eyes gazing up into the night."Look up."

My eyes guide themselves up, automatically. It was the blue light, formed into the silhouette of man. Then I realized Selene wasn't standing before me, it was a woman's silhouette. She forced my mouth open, in very moment I realized what was going on around me. I couldn't run nor speak, it was as if I was being held down.

I heard small footsteps coming toward my room, Hope smiling holding a book."Elizabeth will you-" The book from her hands dropped.

I wanted to scream run, I wanted to run myself.

Cold blue smoke came out of his mouth, toward mine. Everything around became cold, then it stopped. The sensation going around my body was cold, dark and lonely. I could only hear the screams of Hope as I looked at her, before disappearing from her sight.

I updated again but I decided to do so since I want to catch up on the chapters of the story. I should be updating Wednesday again and Friday with two new chapters. If anything I'm about two chapters to write left before I'm done with Part Two and I can start editing the other story that comes after this one. Anyway, Enjoy.
