Bonnie just dropped the girls off for their first day of school and about to go to the café for a snack while she attended classes, when she say the vampire that escaped her grip the day she met Amaka. She didn't know why he was attacking her, was it because she was a witch? was because she was Bennett ? She followed him from across the road where she was for a while observing him before deciding what she could do.
She crossed the road and continued to follow him watching him talking on the phone completely ignoring her presence, she wasn't angry merely amused at how he could act so non-chalant, this one must be Klaus-made, he eventually walked into an alley and she walked right into his trap.
"If you wanted me babygirl, you didn't have to stalk me," He said flashing his fangs and looking at her perversely. Bonnie just smiled and broke his kneecaps causing his dark green eyes to widen and him to fall groaning in pain.
"I'm going to fucking kill you," he growled,
"We'll see about that," she said melting his brains, "Now you may have a hard time remembering," she said but she felt a vampire creeped up on her she slammed to the wall and was about to burn him up when, she looked and see him and stopped, it was Marcellus, the black vampire from her dream, Klaus adopted son. He was even more handsome in person, his eyes widen, marcel was sure the witch was about to burn him alive, but something stopped her and he was glad for that, she nodded at him and he watch him turn back to Micheal, not a vampire he liked very much, he was a bit too arrogant at times, but he was the one the vampires that kept him up-to-date of what was happening in his city.
He watched the witch, her curls neatly in a one except for the two tendrils in front, she was absolutely beautiful and her magic that surrounded his body, was powerful at first it was harsh, lashing out at him for touching her, but when she saw him, he felt this warmth surrounded his body almost has he was protected, he had never felt this sensation before that's how he knows she wasn't a New Orleans witch.
"As I was saying before I was interrupted, you may not remember me, but you might remember another girl same green eyes as mines, skin a bit darker, her hair more kinky and was in two afro-puffs am I jogging your memory," The vampire was bleeding through his noses, he felt a bit disoriented all his senses blinding him, he felt like he was transitioning again, but he nodded he remembered the girl, he even remember their last run in, he didn't remember this.
Marcel watch as she let the vampire heal,
"Good, why were you after her?" she asked, the vampire spit at her shoe.
"The little bitch stepped on my foot and walked away without saying nothing, she needs to know her kind no longer runs this city," he said angrily.
"Do you mind telling me who does?" Bonnie asked, pretending to think "It wouldn't happen to be a vampire with blonde hair, blue eyes a bit temperamental and moody?" Marcel listened as the witch described Klaus.
"Yes vampires run this city," he said, Bonnie laughed and put him on his knees with her magic.
"Klaus, isn't exactly a Vampire though," Bonnie said "and I don't take kind into vampires attacking kids, especially when they're my family," Bonnie lifted his chin and looked him in his eyes.
"Do you understand?" she asked, the vampire eyes started to bleed, but he nodded, he just needed the little bitch to let him go, he'll get her back another time. she smiled and release him and he went rushing leaving Marcel to his own bearings, Marcel watch as the vampire scream from the burn on the sunlight, his head whipped back to the witch who sole focus was on him, he wiggled to see if the he would be free from the wall. thinking he was next.
"I would like you not to attack me when I release you alright?" she said, Marcel nodded. She let him go, he fell to his chest.
"Sorry," she said offering her hand to help him up. he looked at her hand like it was the plague and pushed himself up.
"So you're Marcellus right?" she asked watching the vampire, Marcel froze at that name, very few people knew him as Marcellus, he thought back to the way she described Klaus, she smiled as she did it, like she knew him personally, that's the only place she could have gotten that name.
"Its actually Marcel," he said bitterly. Bonnie nodded
"Well I'm Bonnie, Bonnie Bennett." she said flashing her a smile, she started to walk out of the alley. Marcel eyes widen, no way she could be right?
"Bonnie Bennett you wont happen to be from Mystic falls," he asked, he had heard a Bennett who had almost killed Klaus but never heard about her again, he thought she was dead.
"Yep, though I avoid telling people that," Bonnie said glancing at him.
"What makes me so special," he joked, if she lived to almost kill Klaus and survived, he prayed he stayed on her good side.
"Me and you will be very good friends," Bonnie said stopping to look in his eyes.
"I don't think-" Marcel started
"Maybe we have to form a bond," she dropped her head and think, "you can fight right?" She asked looking back at him, every time she looked at him, he felt like he looked into the eyes, his heart stopped a little, god she is beautiful.
He nodded "But I don't see how?" she tapped his shoulder
"Good you can help train me and I'll help you," Bonnie said "I'll owe you a favour how about that,"
before he could answer, Klaus appeared out of nowhere. Putting his arm around Bonnie shoulders, he expected her to react violent but she seem even more relax, Klaus looked at Bonnie and smiled and then back at Marcel acknowledging him.
"Why are you here?" Bonnie asked him, the two of them started to talk like he wasn't here, Marcel watched how Klaus interacted with Bonnie, like she wasn't the witch responsible in almost ending his life. He looked at her like she was one of his art pieces, like there was no-one else there but her, the way he spoke with her was a way he did when he was once a child, when Klaus last loved him. are they together? how did that happen? the witch seem too stubborn to work for someone like Klaus willingly?
"My hybrids told me you a vampire attacked you? Was it Marcel?" he asked looking at his son, then inspecting Bonnie injuries
"Nope if you look somewhere around here, you see dust and ring laying nicely on it." Bonnie said with a smile. "so your hybrids saw?"
"Yes and they said you told them not to interfere unless you are dying," Klaus said annoyed.
"Well that is why they are here?" bonnie said, Klaus rolled his eyes. "Anyways before you rudely interrupted me, I was talking to Marcel here," she turned back to Marcel.
"So Marcel, do you agree?" Bonnie asked blinking her pretty green eyes at him.
"Yeah," Marcel said, he would be a fool to turn down a free favor from her even though he knew her motive had to be beyond her learning to fight. Bonnie nodded
"Also that witch Davita, I think is her name," Bonnie said perplexed she really couldn't place the girls name, "She's been trying to contact this ones brother, tell her try again tonight," bonnie said with a smile. pulling Klaus away to the café, leaving Marcel wondering how she knew that Davina was unable to talk to Kol.
Bonnie ate her croissants has Klaus stared at her making her uncomfortable,
"Look if this is about me killing one of your vampires, He attacked Amaka so I wont have any regrets killing him," Bonnie said looking him in his eyes.
Klaus chuckled, "That's not it," Bonnie looked at him funny
"Why are you looking at me then? and don't say something corny like I'm beautiful."
"Beautiful is too simple to describe you," he stated causing Bonnie to groan and roll her eyes.
"why do you need to speak with Elijah?" he asked after a while, Bonnie shrugged
"I need his knowledge for something," Bonnie said
"and I can't help with that, I might know a bit more than him," Klaus said
"Nik, you'll find out when you bring him okay!" Bonnie said and then she changed the conversation asking about Hope. he go to ask her again but decided against it whatever it is she genuinely needed his brothers help.
When he saw her off to her classes with a kiss, he headed to the bar that Finn told him she was at. He never thought he'd see the day where Finn was actually useful, the little deal he made with Aurora came in handy because his family would know where she was but not anyone else.
It helps that noone knew he was a Mikealson, obviously Bonnie wouldn't help them beyond her visions and he didn't want her involve in much anyways this was something his family cause years ago. Her, Hope nor Hayley should pay for their mistakes.
So having Finn be a witch, the witch community accepted him more than they ever did Freya. It would help Bonnie too cause Finn constantly sang her praises. Would Elijah end up the same way when she spoke to him?
She somehow was able to win over the most distrustful of them all, that was a feat.
Everyone felt thr shift in energy when Klaus walked into the bar with his one of his hybrids, Noone was able to determine his mood or why he was here. They followed his movements until he stop in the booth where the ancient red head vampire said.
They watched as a creepy smile spread across his face as he greeted her, they watch her eyes widen at his appearance.
"Niklaus," she said frozen in place, he was even more handsome than ever, when was the last time she laid her eyes on him maybe just before he went into hiding. How did he know where I was? Is the spell not working? Aurora blinked to clear her head, she cleared the her throat unsure what to say to the man infront of her.
"I'm suprised you came to New Orleans and didn't come to see me." Klaus said sounding sad.
Aurora swallowed. " I'm sorry darling, I'm visiting my brother no time to do a tour with all my old lovers." She said playfully with a nervous laugh. But she was just met with Klaus deadpan look.
"Your brothers are here too? I'm suprised you guys escaped my city wide inspection." Klaus said
"I just arrived, I don't know about the others," Aurora said, she had heard about Klaus rounding up visiting vampires, somehow Tristan and Aya was out of town when Klaus made that verdict and well. Klaus demanded they meet before he gave them back. His brother was fearful that one of the vampires would spill their plan of de-siring, though very few of them were privy to the plan two of them who knew were caught.
They were one other of Rebekah sires here too but noone cared about him, Rebekah turning vampires were rare but they were not cherished. Most the women turned directly by an original were by Rebekah and most use to be here lovers.
"So Lucien is here too?" Klaus asked, Aurora stayed silent, she didn't know how to answer this question, Her brother was sure that her ex was being genuine with her because he wanted his blessing to date Aurora again and Trsitan believe he was using it against him.
Aurora didn't know how he spends years pretending to be Elijah even now and he couldn't see pass this and look for Lucien true agenda, he would never ask for permission. He was always a taker feeling the world owed him for the terrible treatment in those finals days before he was force to pretend to be Klaus.
Her silence confirmed that Lucien was intact here but he was somehow able go constantly escape Klaus grip but soon enough he'll have sit down with the Vampire and smile in his face like he planned to smile in Klaus.
" Do you mind passing my invitation towars them too for dinner," Klaus said.
"It's been awhile we've all been together in one city willingly," Aurora found herself nodding.
" Hope you enjoy your stay, New Orleans have a way of stealing your final moments," Klaus said with a teasing smile.
"Are you talking from experience?" Aurora asked she'd be a fool if she didn't hear about all the times he almost died, how he lost his daughter and how the city constantly rebels against him. He was simply a vampire trying to rule a city without a queen.
Klaus give her smile, one similar to the one that made her fall in love with him, hearing his ideas, his promises all over again, how he was going to fulfill them until she was force to break his heart.
"Don't go saying things like that, I'd hate to responsible for those moments," he said lowly in her ear. Sending chills across her body, she was not only scared but surprisingly turned on.
In a blink of an eye, Klaus was gone, she wasn't sure how she would tell her brother Tristan about her run into Klaus after she told him she had everything handled.
Being closer to him annoyed the hell out of her, she loved her brother but his over protectiveness was a bit much, he wanted to control her movement.
Sometimes she wondered what was the difference between him and Elijah. They were both controlling was that what they were trying to do become the Mikealsons. They would be the most powerful vampire if they were able to get rid of them.
What would that mean for her? Would they be any different from their sires? Would she be ant different from hers?
They all wished to control and compel the world to their bidding and they needed the family out of the way.
She really hope things worked out for her, her mind was already broken when she turned but being Rebekah for so long, made it worse her therapist that her brother paid for all told her she was a child trapped in a woman's body. She didn't think that was possible because the desires she had was far beyond a child.
Do children want to survive? Do children crave improvement? A life without illness? Do they know the struggles she has?
Aurora sat in that bar pondering and what her next move should be, until her phone rang it was her brother, the moment she answered he order her go come immediately. His tone leaved no room for arguments. Is it becauseI saw Klaus?
The strix were put out of commission klaus offered her something that wasn't table before negotiations plus they could get moving with their plan, she was useful.
Tristan paced waiting of his sister and Lucien to come, he had send one of the few vampires remaining to fetch the psychic but she was found dead, no foul play somehow in this city of magic she died of natural causes.
This threw in wrench in their plans, damn everything did, they had not predict pissing off Klaus this early and him, having his hybrids rounding up the few strix vampires that they allowed in the city, everyone was looking down at him to fix this problem but didn't know there is no reasoning wirh Klaus's logic?
Lucien walked in putting Tristan in worse mood, though he was a bit regretful of his treatment to the vampire, he needed to be knocked down a notch or two he walked around with unearned confidence, any power he acquired during the centuries were completely unearned, all from bullying and little finesse.
"Why have you called me Tristan?" Lucien asked " have you already fucked something up?" Earning a glare from him.
Lucien laughed and tapped Tristan back, "be calm brother whatever it is I'm sure it can be resolved now tell me." Lucien often called Tristan brother to remind him of the time they were trapped being the Mikealsons, Lucien saw him as less not even that. He wasn't even the cockroach he smashed beneath his shoes, they were far too resilient something that Tristan never was.
Lucien wanted to break Tristan like he tried to him do long ago.
" we are waiting on Aurora first," Tristan said, Lucien raised his eyebrows at him
" you are letting her get involved?" Lucien asked
" you didnt give me much a chance did you? You all but tell her our plan." Tristan said irriated, he down his glass of brandy and went to look out the window waiting for Aurora appearance, Lucien would have love to take this moment and just pulled his heart of his chest, but he couldn't act rash not anymore, he needed to stick to the course of things.
He waited by the door, watching as Aurora walked through her the door, the way her silk dress moves her body reminding him of their time together, she jumped when she saw Lucien waiting there for her,
" I thought I was meeting Tristan here," she said accusingly. Don't worry love you won't have to care for him much longer. He flashed her one her panty-dropping smiles.
" he's inside we are waiting," she walked in and threw her purse on the table and pour herself a drink and turned to watch her brother.
" Well what is it spill it out!" She said to him tired of the silence.
" Lucien's psychic is dead," Tristan said, causing Lucien to grit his teeth, why the fuck he'ssaying it like that?
"That sucks because Klaus invited us to dinner," Aurora said causing Lucien head to snap to her. That's why she's so agitated, did he threatened her?
No Klaus like him had a weak spot for the redhead. Lucien stood there thinking knowing the two of them were totally clueless on what to do next. He could find someone else to replace the psychic but he wanted it to be someone he could control more easily maybe a human would they believe them?
Not that it matter, he planned to make it a reality, turning them against everyone, the exact message of the vision the psychic fabricated. It being a human wouldn't make much difference.
Yes he'll find a easy human to manipulate.
" I'll fix it, you guys just find out when the dinner will be," he said he took Aurora hand and kissed it, smirking at Tristan as he did that and walking out the room.
