Chapter9
"Who's we? You and this so called coven? I want no part in your smoke and mirrors business, besides it impossible to procreate with a witch."
"Who says I am one, I'm a werewolf," she turns to the man behind her,"This is Mai he's been shunned, I have no other help."
"Then why are you here? Wasting my time? I have nothing to offer. This pathetic squandering will get you nothing from me."
"Niklaus-"
"No Elijah," he turns to Ingrid.
"How dare you come to me, Klaus Mikaelson, with these deceitful accusations, something you perceived to draw comparisons to my childhood, a bastard, a weakness."
"Klaus I just want him back."
"Then go on, fetch."
The room goes quiet and Haley slowly gets up, removing a sleeping Hope from the scene.
He's now moving around, pacing, "Impossible, the timelines fail to coincide, I resigned in Mystic falls years ago, he should be a child. This boy had to be in his adolescent years ".
"Not if magic has anything to do with it, the witches who performed it used sacrificial magic, they used it that same year in twenty twelve. Killing thirteen witches and werewolves for thirteen years. Tale Sound familiar?"
Hayley and Klaus eye one another.
" I've heard the many tales of sacrificial magic but this one in particular sounds like that of one, Raina Cruz. The hunter who once beared the phoenix stone sword, cursed to kill the undead. Her ancestors and anyone affiliated with her ceased long ago."
"No one affiliated with her performed the spell, the "GIZA COVEN" made a accord with the my pack long ago. Looking to remove the original who once slayed our ancestors, and rained devastation and death upon on us all. They tweaked it naming it the "Nativity spell" . Not a spell that gives the user additional lives but Grows a sacrificial seed from birth."
Klaus cringes at the sound of her every word.
"Well that was a mouthful. How strange is it that I'm the minaous villain in every story, every town. Sure you've got the right guy?"
"So you don't remember, year 1930".
"I'm sorry that was a bad year for me. Lots of booze, dodgey behavior , lots of women, Deaths," he smiles. "My recollection of that year is a little foggy sweetheart." His grin widens, proud.
"Look Klaus, I'm not looking for my child's father, I'm looking for help to find him. We can become need him gone, I need him back, let's help each other, to me its nothing more than a biological accident."
"There's one problem with that, I don't believe you, Any women can say that she's carrying my child, any man for that matter, not to mention it's extremely rare case with Hope. She is my first and only child. A pure blood."
"Not as pure as Ezra," she rips off her necklace off, slamming it on the table
"How did you get this?" She remains silent. "Answer me!" He slams the necklace down onto the wooden table.
It was the same necklace that Ansel had, the necklace of Klaus' werewolf ancestors, the neck of the Pacific Wolf Tribe.
"It's mine! You had one identical to mines when you were born, or at least you should have before you were turned. I'm done trying to prove to you he's yours. Do you want him out of you life or not?"
"You think that little trinket can provide some sort of valuable weight? Mikael the deranged beast, my step father hunted my original pack to a standstill, until they ceased to exist. Mothers,fathers and children dead at the hand of him. Only a few remnants remain, and something tells me that's not you. How does one like yourself get mixed up with the coven of Giza? The reside in Egypt, however my original pack does not."
She smiles, "They've either joined other packs or spread out to rebuild, either way it wouldn't matter. My family departed from the pack way before your father came along".
"Done, we'll accept your terms". They both quickly look to Haley who said it.
"Thank you Ms Marshall."
"Its Haley, and look if any of this is true I want my daughter furthest away from the situation as possible. An older evil Hope is not something I want to take on. So there's my vote".
He quickly turns to Hayley, "I'm sorry, you said that as if you actually had a hand in the matter, he turns to Ingrid, " this is not done."
"Not even remotely finished,should we not be so eager to accept your grand master plan, what should happen then?" Elijah says'.
Everyone jumps at Elijah's voice, he hadn't spoke in a while.
"Ezra will run wild, and Niklaus will fall, so will anyone affiliated with him."
Klaus cracks a smile.
"Laugh all you want Niklaus, but with the last piece of the white oak still out there our son, or anyone is a threat."
"Including you," he points out once more. " and say (our ) again and i'll be tempted to be sure you never murmmur the word again.
"The white oak is somewhere you or anyone else can find it. I have to admit though clever play, bringing the white oak into the picture."
"We shall accept your terms at the moment."
"You can't be serious Elijah".
"I am, the child is still none the less a threat. He's attacked you before, who's to say he won't do it again."
"Elijah I do, all I ask is that my child is retrieved safely". Ingrid adds
Elijah looks toward Klaus and Hayley. "Agreed."
"But if you even breathe the wrong way, I'll know my brother has foolishly misplaced his trust. You might not want to get too comfortable love, Elijah can be foolish but if anything happens to him, something far worst will happen to you. Your insides will be outside by morning. Who knows perhaps I may be feeling a little sympathetic and feed you to your son."
"Always a pleasure Klaus, I'll see you in the morning. We can look (scout)for him from the quarter to the bayou. "
"Where do you think your going, No no no, a special guest as yourself as you say the mother of my child. you'll stay put right here with us,"
He gets closer to her ear.
"They say keep your friends close,and well your enemies, those enemies who dare used their tongue to speak ill of you, those enemies who dare to cross you and conspire against you ….. those enemies you turn them into a unpleasant cautionary tale."
