Chapter 17
Emilia, Emilia. The voice soft deep accented masculine voice played over and over in my head, the ground around me seemed to spin. I collapsed on the ground dropping the tea from my hand.
I opened my eyes, finding myself at the church Vincent held his ceremonies. I was in the ancestries plane, everything looked dreadful and dark.
I heard steps behind me."Glad you came, we need to talk."
I turned around, to see Davina. She looked the same, except for the darker clothing. She grabbed my hand, the spark of connection took us to another area. It was the church once again but I was physically here, I saw Hayley standing in the circle with me.
Davina looked at both of us."Now that you're here, we can talk without distractions."
"What am I doing here?"I asked, slightly nervous especially since the ancestry was here.
She sighed, chuckling."You're here because of what you are and that child, Hayley's here because she and Hope will be useful."She looked at my bump."The hollow was once a child expected to be so powerful as yours, the ancestry does not want that to occur once again."
My hands immediately dropped to my bump, protectively."What do you mean?"
"They will put a spell on your baby, he won't be able to unlock his magic till he's older."Her glance went toward Hayley."You're only one who can put her down, your blood."
Hayley furrowed her brows."Why me?"
"The Crescents were created by the hollow the night her mother killed her, the only thing standing between you and her is you. If you die, she will go after Hope."Davina responded, fearlessly.
Laying on the circle unconscious was Klaus, I knelt down by him."What did you do to him?"
"Don't worry,"Davina assured me."We will use him to put her down, Hayley needs to go find her now. Elizabeth, you're staying with me, your baby only feeds her power."
With a snap of the wrist, I was thrown back into the other plane. Klaus was there, a wave of relief washed over me. I ran into his arms, cupping his cheeks.
"What are you doing here?"Klaus frowned,"I'll destroy the whole ancestry if she hurt you."
I smiled, shaking my head."I'm fine, the baby is fine. She just needs me here to stay away from the hollow, but you're fine that's all I care for."
He leaned down, resting his forehead against my own."You shouldn't be here, Love."
"Klaus, I know I've been distant. I don't want to be, I love you I really do but I'm scared of the dreams."
"Elizabeth, look at me."Klaus held my face in his hand, forcing me to look at him in the eye."I will protect you from whatever creature goes bump in the night, darling."
I placed my hands around his neck, slamming my lips against him. He kissed me feverishly, pulling me tighter against him.
Why think separately of this life than the next, when one is born from the last?
That certainly was not Klaus, the voice belonged to the same man that invaded my mind. I pulled away noticing Davina was in here, she made Klaus disappear instantly. Standing by a pillar of the church with a small smirk on her lips.
"You're dreaming about him aren't you?"She said with her eyebrow raised up."I can help you find him, he's looking for you."
I looked at her confused."How do you know?"
"Why think separately of this life than the next, when one is born from the last? I can give you answers to it all, with one condition if you want your baby to survive."
"What do you mean?"I demanded.
"Your baby will die with you if you don't stop the hollow."She stated, approaching me."In time I will come for you, you will be the ultimate sacrifice to defeat the hollow. Think about it, I don't think you want her to harm Hope. Allow me to give you something in return for you."
I was bound to die anyway why not make it for the survival of Hope and everyone, I would be giving myself to the one that made sure I was created. For my son, I would do anything, and everything.
"You have a deal."
She placed her hand on my temple, closing her eyes. His face became clear, everything flashed into my mind like lighting. All these emotions I could barely explain, a baby in my arms that was not my own but he was. People who I did not know. Then there was the man once again, we walked through a garden laughing. The way looked at me, the feeling of it felt like my own because it was my own.
The memories stopped when she pulled her hand away, a wave of pitch blackness took over me once again.
The gardens were full of roses ranging from reds to blues, it was beautiful but no more beautiful than those hazel eyes shining against the sunlight. For a prince he less rigid than I thought, he was quite lovely to be around. He had been courting me for the last month, bringing me roses every time he came.
I laughed at his story."You know you don't have to get rose thorns on your hands for me, your company does quite enough."
He stopped his tracks, leaning closer to me. My heart began to beat faster and faster by second, the intensity of it all made me feel as if I were running on adrenaline."Then allow me to show you what I feel."
I didn't stop him, leaning in myself as our lips brushed against each other. His thumb brushed against the side of my neck, he kissed me gently but made my skin tingle nonetheless. He slowly pulled away, getting on one knee.
"Emilia, I would be more than honored for you to be my princess. I want you as my wife, as my partner and mother of my children. Marry me."
"No."
I opened my eyes, glancing around my surroundings. I wasn't at the church but in the middle of an old abandoned home, unable to leave a circle that had me trapped. I could see Selene standing there with a malicious smirk on her lips.
I clutched my bump protectively, I stood up meeting her own intensity."What do you want from me now? I'm no use to you anymore, I'm dying you know that."
"Tsk tsk you may not be used to me, but my partner in crime wants your baby. I figured why not hurry up the process, ever heard about rebirth?"She raised a brow, approaching me."Oh, wait you have, Emilia, isn't it."
"Tell me, how does it feel to love one but internally desire the other?"She inquired, taunting me."Certainly, you know their history, but again that ultimately does not matter as you're months away from your own death."
I wasn't stupid, I knew what they were going to do. My child was feeding the hollow enough power to be reborn, the only way to be reborn would be to sacrifice from something powerful. The degrees around me dropped instantly. The woman Marcel was involved with, appeared dragging an unconscious Elijah into the same circle I was in, her eyes were glowing an icy blue. He was bleeding from the back.
She stared at me, before glancing back at Selene."You brought her, she's more than I expected. Tomorrow night under the full moon Elijah Mikaelson will die and a new will be born, your child will be my greatest creation."

As you've all seen The Originals Finale, I will not take the same course of separating them. I would have but due to the sequel, it made no sense in doing so. There will be two stories more before we bring them back as regular characters. I was going to update yesterday and earlier today since I didn't yesterday but due to breaking my ankle Wednesday I've been on medication. Anyway, Enjoy this chapter. As Promised Baltor will appear soon and about those visions, they're clues to the future.
