《Home | The Originals》Chapter 41: Happy Death Day
Advertisement
(We are skipping episode 19. I don't see her in the bombing at the bayou. Nix and Cami don't really have a good relationship for Nix to be helping out with Father Kieran.)
I arrived at the party everyone was having to say their goodbyes to Father Kieran. I thought it was disrespectful that they were drinking and having fun in his honor but what can I do, beside kill them all. I spot Nik sitting in the corner wallowing in a corner by himself with a shot glass in his hand, empty.
I walk over and sat next to him. "What's wrong?" I asked him but he didn't answer me.
Elijah came over and sat down with us bringing a bottle of bourbon with him. He pours Nik a drink and we watch as everyone dance around the place.
"Seems rather uncivilized—to laugh and dance around the body of a loved one." Nik said as he stalks everyone in the room having fun.
"I can guarantee that all of them are going to hell when they die." I said and Nik took a gulp of his full shot glass.
Hayley came over taking the last seat at the table. "I'll warn you, Hayley, Niklaus is in a spectacularly foul mood today." Elijah warmed her.
"Sod off." Nik said with an obvious discomfort over something.
"What's the deal with these moonlight rings? Oliver's trying to start a revolution every 5 seconds. People are scared, angry. And, frankly, I'm tired of stalling." Hayley asked Nik.
"Why don't you put the little runt in his place? If he keeps acting up like that then there will be no moonlight rings." I commented.
"It's a day of peace, Hayley. Try and enjoy it. In the meantime with all manner of unknown enemies conspiring against our family, you'll move back in with us." Nik said trying to persuade Hayley to come back to the Compound.

"Awesome." Hayley said sarcastically making me hide a laugh. "Then we can do that thing where you lock me in the tower, I escape there's drama, and then you two both realize that I'm very capable of looking after myself."
"The rings are in progress. I will live up to my word. We will find and punish whoever launched the attack on the bayou. And you will return to the Compound for your own safety. But right now," he grabs the bottle of bourbon, "I'm going to finish this bottle...and the next in the hopes of drowning the demon that has chosen today to haunt me." Nik lifts the bottle to the air. "Cheers, Mikael. Impeccable Freudian timing." Nik said and took a drink from the bottle.
I look at him shock. Why is he dreaming of Mikael. "Elaborate. Have you dreamt of our father?" Elijah asked him with a look of seriousness on his face.
"Go ahead. Have a good laugh." Nik said giving him the ok to make fun of him.
"I can assure you there isn't a piece of this that I find even remotely amusing, Niklaus, especially considering I've been dreaming of him, too." Elijah said and Nik looked at him surprised.
"What is going on?" I asked them but it went to deaf ears.
"If you are also seeing him..." Elijah looks to his left and I follow his gaze to Genevieve who walked in and she stares back at us but mostly at Klaus, "perhaps our elusive unknown enemy is orchestrating a further attack."
Nik looks to follow his gaze to Genevieve who smiles back at him. "Well, then what better way to punctuate a day of peace... than by killing someone?" Nik puts his hands up and wiggles his fingers in a way to wave at her. I roll my eyes and take the bottle so I could have a drink.

Elijah looks at me. "Phoenix, I'm going to be needing the keys to your shop." He asked me and I gave it to him with no questions asked.
"Please don't break anything." I told the brothers and they left.
I look at Hayley. "So you really going to give birth in a swamp?" I asked her.
She lets out a laugh before shaking her head. "Of course not. As nice as the werewolves are, I don't plan giving birth out in the open." Hayley said.
"Well, when you do give birth, I will be forcing our child's to be the best of friends." I said with a huge smile on my face.
"Yeah, and then you'll get pregnant again and my daughter will have a half sibling and more in the future." Hayley said.
I raised my eyebrow. "What makes you think Nik is going to get me pregnant again?" I asked her.
"Can you honestly say that you and Klaus haven't been in each other's bed every night since you guys started dating?" Hayley asked me. I looked down shamelessly because we have been in bed together every night. "Right, and since then, how many times has he pulled out?" She asked and my whole face fell. Nik never pulls out.
Hayley smiles at me in victory. "I expect your next child to be named after me." She told me. I flipped her off making her laugh and we switched topics because she was getting uncomfortable with me and Klaus sex life.

Margrave's Divinity (Rewrite)
Power always comes with a price. Seventeen years ago, obsidian towers thousands of feet tall erupted from the earth near the world’s population centers. Strange magic accompanied their appearance—powerful and inexplicable abilities granted to lucky humans, called Embers for the burning in their eyes. Lyle isn’t lucky, though. When the recently-unemployed college dropout finally manages to get his hands on a Cinder, he is utterly disappointed to find that he will never be an Ember like his father or brother. Before he even has time to process his failure, a strange Ember shoves him through a tear in reality and into the cave of a dragon, where the titanic beast claims to be an ancient goddess of myth and legend. She has a gift for him, but it comes with a warning. War is coming. --- Posting Thursdays and Sundays at 8am Central. Confused about the rewrite? See my letter to previous readers here.
