《Home | The Originals》Chapter 13: Darkness

"Rebekah, why are you here?" I asked her as she walks in my store frustrated.
"Sophie got stabbed with a dark object and Elijah sent me here so I can get the herbs for her to slow the fever down." She said as she goes through my shelves.
"Oh, well have fun. I'll be in the back taking care of Angel since business is slow." I told her and she just continues with her search.

I came back to the mansion late at night just to see Marcel leaving. I furrowed my eyebrows and sped in the house in front of Hayley. "What was Marcel doing here?" I asked her.
"He wanted to come by the house to take a trip in memory lane. He also said that he wished me a happy pregnancy." She told me and I sigh in relief.
"Well, at least nothing worst happened other than him showing up." I said and she nodded her head. She walked towards me and start playing with Angel who was messing around with her rattle. I smile at the two just thinking Hayley will be a great mother when I felt something go threw my chest. I gasp in pain before I felt hands grab my head and twisted it, snapping my neck. Last thing I heard was my baby crying out for me as we was being dragged.

Elijah walks into the mansion before stopping in his place. He notices how eerily quiet it is. "Hayley." Elijah yelled out but received no answer. "Phoenix!" He yelled again only getting silence. Elijah gets his phone and dials Rebekah's number. "Good-bye means good-bye, Elijah." Rebekah said as she drives out of the city.
"Are they with you?" Elijah asked.
"What the hell are you talking about?" Rebekah asked.
"Hayley and Phoenix are gone. Where are they?" Elijah said.
"What?" Rebekah said shocked.
Klaus then walks into the room where Elijah was. Elijah turns around to see Klaus holding onto a rattle that he knows belongs to Angel. "Marcel was here." He told Elijah as he tried to keep his composure but you can see that he was worried about a certain mother and her daughter.

Note: Slight edits to early chapters (and removal of one chapter - previously chapter 2) have been made 2/2/21 The city, my city, had once been alive in a way that was hard to describe. Thriving, active, hopeful. Vibrant. But life, as I had come to learn, sometimes possesses only the most tenuous of grasps. Finally, in the end, it became my city - mine alone. I was, after all, the only one left. Worse, it was entirely my fault. There was red in my ledger that could never be wiped clean. Not while I still lived, anyway. This story follows Eran, a man who became the opposite of everything he had ever wanted to be; in a world where superpowers began to appear in a rare few, his lack of control over his own power relegated him to the role of a terrible villain - the Reaper, named so for the countless lives that he absorbed and made his own, each only furthering his deadly lack of control. Gone mad with guilt and isolation, he strove for a single heroic act - his own demise. Death was less permanent than he hoped. Centuries later, he woke to a changed world and in a body not his own. Unfortunately, his power came with him. Yet this time, things would be different. This time, he had a chance to bring it under control. He could never truly make up for the things he had done; he could never achieve redemption. That wouldn't stop him from trying to be a hero.
