《Kindred Spirits》Chapter 9
Advertisement
After everything that went wrong last night, they went to the hotel mainly for Zola, to get some sleep.
But now, Rebekah wanted to change and get some change of clothing.
"There has to be more to this dress." Rebekah states, astoundly.
"There's not, dear sister" Elijah says, drinking champagne along with Klaus and Stefan. Zola had gotten pushed into a dressing room to try some things out Rebekah had picked out for her.
Rebekah gets out of the fitting room to see herself and show the men in the store, well more like Stefan.
"So women in the 21st century dress like prostitutes, then. You know, I got dirty looks for wearing trousers."
"You wore trousers so women today could wear nothing." Klaus says sarcastically.
"And what is this music? It sounds like a cable car accident." Rebekah asks
"It's dance music."
"People dance to this?"
They all nodded, and Klaus groaned "Are we done?"
"And why are you so grumpy?" Rebekah questions, trying to make fun of her brother.
"I needed one thing from you for my witch to find out why my hybrids are dying, one thing. Your necklace. And you lost it." Klaus grumpily says, hating that his plans are somewhat ruined.
"I didn't lose it. It's just been missing for 90 years." Rebekah says, trying to ease the situation a little.
Meanwhile in the fitting room, Zola was trying on a nice summer dress Beks had picked out for her, but she didn't know if it suited her well.
"Zo, you are taking forever in there. Do you need help" Rebekah asked
"No"
"Then come out"
"I'm coming, I'm coming" Zola muttered, stepping out of the fitting room, only for Elijah and Klaus freeze upon seeing her. She also sees that Stefan wasn't anywhere in sight.
Zola looks at their reaction, and starts to feel insecure.
"Is it bad?"
"Bad? Zo you look awesome" Rebekah cheerfully says, going back into the fitting room to change into a different outfit.
"Sooo"
Klaus and Elijah finally snapped out of it, vamp-speeding to her.
"Love you look wonderful"
"Absolutely gorgeous"
Zola blushes while Klaus and Elijah kiss her cheek at the same time.
She kisses both of them on the cheek, and turns around to change, but Klaus stops her.

"Where are you going, love?"
"To change out of this"
"Leave it on Elskan"
Zola nods, and waits for Rebekah to come out.
Once Rebekah was able to find an outfit she liked, they headed to Gloria's bar to see if she could find the necklace.
Stefan walks into the bar to see Elijah, Klaus, Rebekah, and Zola at the bar. Zola is eating and he also notices Gloria doing something.
"You left us." Rebekah pouts, stealing bacon from Zola's plate. "Hey get your own"
"Yeah, sorry. Retail therapy was making my head explode."
"Tell me about it." Klaus grumbles, but Zola hits his arm. Klaus just rolls his eyes, and puts his arm on the back of her chair.
"What's she doing?" Stefan points to Gloria.
"She's failing."
"It's hard to find something when you don't have anything to go on." Gloria snaps back at Klaus.
"So use Beks, she wore for like centuries, right?" Zola tries to say but with food in her mouth.
"Elskan" Elijah scolds, cleaning her mouth with a napkin. "Sorry"
"See? Now that one offers a solution." Gloria points to Zola, as well as waving Rebekah over to her. "All right, give me your hand, sweetheart."
Rebekah hands her hand, and Gloria goes right into it, doing the spell over again.
"She's, uh, she's looking for the necklace, huh?" Stefan asks Klaus, and he nods. Zola once again notices that Stefan is acting weird. What is he hiding? Zola thought
"I found it." Gloria gasped, looking over to them
"So where is it?" Elijah asks
"It doesn't work like that. I get images. There's a girl with her friends" Gloria explains to them what she saw.
"Yes, a dead girl with dead friends, if I don't get my necklace back." Rebekah snaps, aggravated
"Well, I'll have to dive back in to get the details." Gloria states
"So dive." Klaus demands
"I need more time, and space. You're harshing my ju-ju" Gloria says after Klaus stands closer to her.
"We can wait." Klaus says
"I'm sure you can. But that's not what I asked." Gloria says back matching his intensity.
"Nikki, give her space" Zola says, finishing her food.
"Hey. Hey, you know, why don't we just come back later. I'm hungry anyway. I'll let you pick who we eat." Stefan tries to persuade them all, and it works.

They make their way to the warehouse after picking some girls up to feed on. Zola sits in between Klaus and Elijah, trying to block out what they're doing by listening to music on Elijah's phone.
"My girl's dead. I'm bored." Rebekah whines.
Klaus stops feeding, looking at Stefan
"You weren't kidding about being hungry."
" Yeah. It's been a long day." Stefan says, annoyed.
"Try being related to her." Klaus jokes, knowing he won't get hit because his mate is preoccupied.
"Niklaus" Elijah scolds him, dropping the body on the floor away from Zola's view.
"You're being mean." Rebekah whines, and she looks at Stefan, pouting "And why are you being mean? You used to love me."
"It's been ninety years, Rebekah. Give him a minute." Klaus mocks her but Rebekah just pouts and glares at him. "Why are you taking his side?"
"Because, my dear sister, I feel pity for any man who doesn't give you what you want."
"Will you stop making me out to be a brat? I am not a brat! Zola!" Rebekah throws her shoe at her, to get her attention. She shockingly looks up and sees Beks staring at her.
"Rebekah was that necessary" Elijah says, rubbing the spot the shoe hit her.
"Are you okay Beks?"
"They're bullying me, make them stop"
"Knock it off Nikki, she is your sister"
"Plus, you're no picnic, either. I mean, I've only spent one summer with you and I feel like I want to blow my head off." Stefan says, making fun of Klaus.
"You guys are children" Zola says, walking over to Rebekah, handing her shoe back to her.
Rebekah laughs, grabbing hold of Zola's arm.
"I need to go." Stefan says, walking away
"Where is he going?" Rebekah muttered to Zola
Zola sighs "Long story"
After realizing the dead bodies were making Zola uncomfortable, Elijah and Klaus took the bodies away, cleaning their mess and then went to check up on their witch while Rebekah and Zola stayed at the warehouse.
"So my brothers huh?" Rebekah asks, wiggling her eyebrows.
"What?" Zola blushes
"You know what. Tell me everything"
"There isn't much. I met Elijah first and then he came to my house with Klaus. They explain everything to me, and I mean everything to me. And they took me on this trip with them"
"You are being vague with the details." Rebekah glares at Zola, and she sighs
"I don't love them if that's what you asking"
Rebekah just raises her eyebrow
"Okay, I think I might be falling in love with them but everything is going really quick"
"That's because you guys are meant to be together. You'll be fine, plus with how I see everything. You have them wrapped around your little perfect fingers"
Zola laughs, knowing she does. Klaus wouldn't let just anyone hit him. That person would be dead in seconds
"So they told you everything?"
Zola nods, not understanding where this is going.
"Even about Klaus killing mother and our father chasing us for decades"
"Yeah, they wanted to be upfront with me."
Rebekah goes to say something but she looks behind Zola and sees Stefan
"You're back"
"Yeah, I am"
Rebekah elbows Zola, silently telling her to leave them alone. And she gets the message.
"Right well Imma go use the bathroom" Zola leaves, not knowing what she is coming back to.
Zola gets back, shaking her hands in the air to try to dry them, and she looks up to see Klaus throwing Stefan's body in a van while Elijah packs away their suitcases in the car.
"Are we leaving? And what happened to Stefan?" Zola asks out loud, confused. Klaus turns around and rushes to her.
"Niklaus!" Elijah growls
"Lijah, she is my mate as well. I won't hurt her" Klaus says, gently grabbing Zola on each side of her head which makes her grow tense. "Love, I need you to think. What could Stefan be hiding?"
"I..i don't know" Zola stutters out.
"He didn't tell you anything?" Klaus asks softly, not liking that he is scaring his mate.
Zola shakes her head to which he lets her go
"I'm sorry love, I didn't mean to scare you. He is hiding something from me, and I think I know what it is or where it is"
"It's okay. Stefan has been acting tenses or just weird in general ever since we left Tennessee" Zola states, after hugging Klaus trying to calm him and herself down.
"Yes, I now see that. And I have an idea where that thing could be" Klaus states, walking to the car to help Zola in. "We are going back to Mystic Falls"
Just what she needed.

Infinite Realm: Monsters & Legends
The world has ended, and those worthy of it have received the chance for a new life in a new reality. Zach grew in power and thrived in the post-Framework world. He became a respected leader, a shining example of what it meant to be good. But as the world ended, he had only one thought: to punish the monster that had killed the world long before the Framework ended it. Yet not even with his incredible power was he able to stand against the World Ender. His arrival in the new realty, the Infinite Realm, gives him the chance to grow stronger, to find the monster again—and make it pay. Ryun survived the chaos after the arrival of the Framework by pushing harder than anyone else. He grew in power until he became the most powerful being that had ever walked the planet; but he is hated by the world, called a monster by all others, the World Ender. As the world ends and he steps into a new one, where people stronger than him have lived for centuries, he finds himself lost and without purpose. The only thing that had mattered to him had been lost to him long ago. He truly was the monster that people considered him to be, and he now finds himself wondering if this new reality has a place for someone like him—but he had never been one for lying down and dying without a fight. One world fell to his power, and another might follow. Current schedule: Monday/Wednesday/Friday Join the Discord: https://discord.gg/ncC5Q7H A polished and edited versions of volume 1, 2, and 3 is avaliable on Amazon. Current Volume: 4 Infinite Realm is a story that will follow two main characters at the start, with a few more joining the cast a bit later. The story will be told in two different time periods: past and present up until volume 3. Past chapters take place in the past on Earth, and take form of flashbacks that follow the two as they struggle to survive and grow their powers in the world changed by the Framework. The main story is in the present. This story is a mix of LitRPG and Xianxia, and it will have Classes as well as Cultivation systems. There are two main characters, and a few others that are introduced later. The MC focus will change from volume to volume, with the first being focused on Ryun, and the second on Zach (we are currently in Volume 4). Other MCs will still have chapters dedicated to them, but the focus will be on the main volume MC.
