《Home | The Originals》Chapter 7: Charity Ball
Advertisement
I was walking around the party looking at everything. Angel was at the mansion with Hayley tonight and she was sleep so it gave me the opportunity to escape. "Hello, luv." I heard someone say and I turn around to see Klaus and Rebekah arm and arm together, both wearing black.
"You clean up nice." I said looking him up and down before I settle my eyes back on his face.
"Where's Angel? I thought she likes being able to touch you." Rebekah asked me. "She's sleeping. I have Hayley looking after her, maybe this will help her learn how to be a parent while I escape from motherhood." I answered receiving a smile from both of the siblings.
I went to the other side of Klaus and he wraps his other arm with mine and we just stand there and look at the performers dancing with hula hoops, snakes, silk ropes. My eyes then drift back to the crowd where I see Cami walking in wearing a white dress and angel wings on her back. She looks beautiful... but not as beautiful as me. "What's she doing here?" Klaus asked as he watches Cami looks around the party.
"What better way to distract Marcel than to put his very human, new girl in a room chock full of vampires?" Rebekah said as she let's go of Klaus arm and walks towards Cami to greet her.
"So, what did you do?" I asked him making look down at me. After 1000 years of being a hybrid I was still stuck at a 5'2 and it bothered me that I have to look up at my prey.
"I may have, technically, made someone break Marcel's rule." Klaus said looking at me evilly.
"Am I going to lose an employee?" I asked him but he only smiled at me. "Guess I got to put up a help wanted sign. I may not have liked Katie but I needed her to take care of my store while I be a mother." I said.

"Is He the infamous on-again/off-again?" I heard Cami say and that makes Klaus walk up to the two blondes, dragging me with him as well. "He's the brother, actually, and my sister is right. You do look stunning." Klaus said then looked down at me. "Both of you."
"Thanks. You clean up pretty well yourself." Cami said. "Well, don't be fooled, luv. I'm the devil in disguise." Klaus said with a very proud smile on his face.
I rolled my eyes and pulled my arms out of his. "Your ego is making me claustrophobic so I'm going to go see if I can dance with someone." I told the three and left from this small hurdle. Time flew past as this party continues but to me it felt like everything was just slow. I don't have much friends since I keep to myself and when I do talk to someone I'm usually threatening them at the end and they know to stay out my way. I finish up my drink and set it on a nearby table and start to head to the exit when someone grabbed my hand and yanked into their chest. I looked up and see Klaus staring down at me. "What are you doing?" I asked him as he makes us sway back and forth with the music.
"Is it a crime to dance with a gorgeous woman?" He asked me. "Flattery will get you no where, Klaus." I told him ignoring that I got goosebumps from his compliment. "Call me, Nik." He told me and I only nodded my head. "I'm not calling you Nick until I feel like it." I told him. He didn't say anything after that. We just enjoyed our peaceful silence. "I meant what I said, luv. You are gorgeous." He said breaking the silence between us.

I put my chin on top of his shoulders. "Thank you." I whispered for him to hear. We continue to just dance together, like it was just us two and there was no dancers, no people, and no drama. I looked around me and saw Marcel storming towards a very guilty Thierry. "Looks like your plan worked." I told him and he stopped dancing with me to see what I was talking about.
"Go home, Phoenix. I don't want you getting hurt when things get rough." Klaus told me and I nodded my head then walked to the exit.

Of Gods and Dungeons
March 16, 2021 - Hiatus note: I will come back to this story! I'm really struggling with it, though. It's been a number of years and I kind of forgot what the original outline was. I still remember the main path, but not any of the details, because I stupidly didn't write an outline. Progress is being made. I'd like a very decent sized buffer before I start posting again. Don't want to get hopes up only to immediately disappoint! ----- Amy Barnes, an aspiring chemical researcher, finds herself dying from cancer. One of her most desperate prayers is answered in a way that she'd never dreamed possible, and she finds herself living a new life as a dungeon. Warning: Violence, morbidity Cover: Taken from here, courtesy of www.pexels.com by photographer @tookapic. Author's Note: I've read some dungeon core stories on here, and they've tickled my fancy. I've thought up a whole story, start to finish, and thought it'd be a blast to put it into words. Other than the violent and morbid aspects, this story is suitable for children. Aside from the vocabulary, that is. I will avoid the temptation to have any cursing, sexuality, or gore. Excessive gore, I suppose - it is a dungeon story, after all. I’ll do a little research from time to time, but this story will not have a great deal of rigor. I’ve made Amy’s knowledge comparable to my own for that reason. There’s a few things she knows more about than I do, and a few things that she knows less about. Unlike me, she doesn’t have access to Google - it’s a non issue for her to be more knowledgeable than me, on occasion :P This story does not use the same magic system that I’ve used in either Sorcery in Boston or A Summoner’s Confession. This one is mostly intention based, and designed to be easier access for people who are more used to the idea of, “It’s magic, therefore it works” kind of thinking. Do note that Amy is, in most senses of the term, overpowered. This goes along with the usual dungeon core stories. She’s not more powerful than other dungeons per se, but she does have knowledge and intelligence that puts them to shame. I thought about doing this in a LitRPG style, but systems take balance, and I wanted this to be pure fun to write.This story was inspired from a few sources. Despite the title, it wasn’t really inspired by Of Mice and Men, though some of the themes match. Rather, I’ve taken inspiration from a few dungeon core novels on Royal Road Legends for the main idea. Many conventions of dungeon core stories have been perverted from the genre, however. I’ve taken my usual science-loving self to town to play around with the powers, and I can only hope you have half as much fun reading this as I have had writing it.
