"He isn't going to answer me Marcel, I'm not going to get anywhere so I don't know why you want me to keep trying"
Violet had pulled the phone away from her ear and placed her head on the bar. It had been a rough couple of days for everyone with Cami being dead. Klaus had disappeared until they had another memorial for her. He avoided everyone including Elijah and Freya. Violet felt like he blamed she and Marcel for everything but he thought differently. Everyone had been so distant and hadn't seen Lucien or Aurora since. It was a concern if she took the serum but remembering Cami's life was more important.
She had called Klaus numerous times and she knew that he wouldn't answer. It was Marcel who wanted to know if everything was okay and that he wouldn't do something stupid. She had gone back to the bar to clean up the mess that Lucien had left. She groaned quietly hoping Marcel wouldn't hear and promised she'd call Klaus. After hanging up, she slid her phone down the bar and poured herself another drink.
"Is this a bad time to ask for a favor of some sort?" Davina had slipped through the door without Violet hearing her. She glanced at her before taking a drink. She did tell the young girl that she'd do whatever she needed after breaking the sire line but now was not a good time.
Davina had cracked the door and stared at the vampire. "I wouldn't be here if it wasn't important I just need your help"
Violet continued to drink and waited for an answer. Davina looked behind her and ushered in someone quickly. When she saw who it was she almost spit out her drink. She jumped up from the barstool shaking her head. "Oh no, I haven't seen a Mikaelson for" a while and I want it to stay that way"
"Look you told me if I need help with something I should come to you and I really need help with Kol"
Kol Mikaelson stood there scratching the top of his head and looking around. Besides Finn, he was the only Mikaelson she hadn't met but she was bound to cross paths with him at some point. She had seen pictures and heard stories but never had the chance to meet him, nor did she want to.
"He does have brothers Davina. I don't know where Klaus is but I will be glad to direct you to Elijah or Freya. I have this to clean up so if I could just have some space to myself"
When she fully turned around Davina saw the mess that was still on her. Violet had a few bruises and scratches on her from Lucien's mess. As a way of keeping her ripper side down, she hardly drank any human blood and began to drink animal blood. As nasty as it was, Violet wanted to keep herself in check. It was bad enough having to go to Cami's funeral banged up and getting curious glances. The wounds were getting better but were healing slower due to the blood. Kol had finally given her a look over but didn't say a word.
"You are a ripper so you'd be best to help me with what's going on. I'm sure Marcel hasn't said much about him so I'll let him explain it to you"
He glanced down at the girl before sighing. "Whatever the ancestors are doing to be is making me unstable. I'm not myself anymore, I just want blood constantly and I don't care who I have to take it from. I can't leave the city and I'm afraid that I'll hurt Davina. I know this bar prevents magic so I'll be safe here but I don't know how to keep it under control"
"If the witches are making you do this, there's nothing I can do. I'm a vampire, not a witch"
"Vincent's been helping me with a spell that I think might work on helping him break free from them. I just need to buy a little time so I wanted to see if he could stay here with you"
Violet's eyes trailed between the couple realizing what she was asking. After being attacked last, she really didn't want to be in the bar longer than needed. "So you basically want me to babysit an Original. Are you insane?"
Kol had shifted his weight and it made her realize how childish he seemed. Not just personality wise, but everything about him screamed young, troubled Mikaelson brother. She could tell that he didn't want to be there either but it was more out of desperation. Davina had given her puppy eyes and she had no choice but to budge. She just hoped she wouldn't have to be there all night.
A few hours had gone by and Violet was slowly picking up the mess herself. Kol went from table to table wiping them down and cleaning the chairs. He offered to help her but she wanted to stay away from family drama. They made small talk every once and a while and she realized she knew nothing about him.
"Do you think the spell is going to work?" He asked placing a chair on the bar.
"You and I both know that witches have their own way of knowing without us. I'm sure if it doesn't she'll figure something else out. She's head over heels for you; Davina does anything to protect the ones she loves so I have heard" It was strange for her to be watching him like a child who wanted a toy and couldn't have it. It made her wonder if that was what she was like.
He didn't say anything and when she looked at him, he seemed to be pondering something. "I've been dagger most of my life due to Nik not wanting me to go off the rails. I come back only to be killed time and time again. My Mother made me body hop and now I look at me…"He took a breath before continuing. "All I wanted was to be with Davina. Whatever the witches have up their sleeve…"
He stopped talking when Davina entered the room. She looked between the two as they just stared at her. "We still have a few things to figure out so Vincent said we'll pick it up tomorrow"
"Don't expect me to sleep here all night. I thought it was going to be done" Violet didn't want to sound bitchy but she was ready to go take a hot bath and climb into a warm bed. Davina hadn't said anything and just walked over to Kol. Violet glanced at the clock on the wall while picking up the flowers. She had heard them talking quietly but paid no attention to them. It reminded her of how Marcel and Rebekah used to act, always wrapped up in other another. Then again, she guessed it was young love.
She grabbed her back while throwing the flowers in the trash and proceeded to walk out. It probably wasn't a good idea to leave Davina with Kol but she wasn't it the mood for it. After Cami's death, Violet realized she didn't want to be in New Orleans anymore. Yes, it was home but there was always baggage that came with it. The fighting, the arguing, constantly on edge wondering if today was going to be the day she died. Georgia was so much simpler than that and she honestly missed it. As she started walking down the street, she remembered that she left her phone on the bar. Right when Violet turned around, she heard a scream and zipped back to St. James. Surely enough, Kol was vamped out and aiming for Davina's throat. The anscestors having been playing with her magic for quite a while and it wasn't like she could use it there.
Violet had slammed the door open and shut when made Kol look over surprised. She was unamused realizing that something was going to go down and she wasn't in the mood to fight. She couldn't take on an Original especially with their age nor did she care to. She looked at the phone thinking she could call Marcel or Elijah then it clicked, she should have called Klaus. It wasn't like Kol wanted her, he craved Davina but she couldn't let anything happen to the girl. Violet glanced at a bar and sitting on the counter was a bottle of alcohol. It was actually filled with vervain water just in case someone decided to pay her a visit again. Her best bet was to throw it at him, have Davina move quickly and zip out there with her and get to safety.
She tilted her head towards it and Davina nodded faintly. She didn't tell any of them but this wasn't the first time Kol had tried attacking her. Davina thought she'd have all of this under control by now and she for sure wasn't going to tell Marcel. The only people she could count on were Josh and Violet. Violet had said something to him in which Davina didn't make out and she made a run for the bottle. She tossed it to Davina who caught it luckily and slammed it into the side of Kol's face once he whipped around. She screamed as he yelled in pain running to Violet who threw her in front and ran out the door. She was making sure it was locked tight enough but then all hell broke loose.
Kol busted through the door and grabbed Violet by the waist. He drug her back inside the bar with such force that the girls were surprised no one could hear what was going on. Davina had stood outside trying to think of a spell to stop him but doubted anything could work. Her brain was fogged by shock that they both were lucky Marcel was there. Violet was let go after feeling herself pushed forward and heard him cry out. When she turned around, Marcel was slowly placing Kol on the ground with a silver dagger in his chest.
Davina had ran inside and hugged him thanking him he was there. She was concerned for Kol but knew with him being daggered, he was safe from the witches and she could do her spell. Violet had looked them over with relief that nothing got out of hand.
"What were you thinking? You know how Kol has been"
She didn't say anything and the room became silent. He dug his cellphone out of his jacket pocket to call Elijah and tell him about his brother. Davina had let go and looked over at Violet who was just staring out the doorway. She brushed her upper arm and once Violet looked at her; she went in for a hug. Taken by surprise, she slowly hugged her back wondering where that came from. As Marcel stood by the door waiting for a response, a tremendous rumble went through the air and everything began to shake. He quickly looked back at the girls and Violet held her tight not knowing what was going on.
The two vampires and the witch looked down at Kol and saw the dagger slowly pulling itself out of his chest by magical force. Violet looked at Marcel who rushed them out of the building and away from the crazy, blood thirsty Original.
