《Kindred Spirits》Chapter 18
Advertisement
Zola turns around just in time for Tyler to raise his stake, ready to kill Zola, but she puts her hand up, freezing Tyler in front of her and Bonnie who started to take out her stake from inside her purse.
Zola's urge of violence starts to show, the lights flickering badly. Zola clicked her tongue, and destroyed the stakes in their hands, putting it on fire.
Tyler looks down at the stake, shocked to see it in flames, and then to Zola with fear, when he starts to scream out in pain. She had let the spell go down, and watched Tyler fall to the ground, holding his head in pain.
"So what was the plan huh? Kill me to get to Klaus and Elijah. Weaken them to get a better shot at destroying them" Zola spat, walking slowly away from her spot. Her eyes brighten up in intensity, making Bonnie and Emily kneel on the ground.
"Please Zola. We're sorry just please don't-" Zola cuts her off by doing something she, herself, didn't think she can do. She rips Tyler's beating heart out of his chest.
Bonnie screams out in grief, expecting Tyler's skin to start to decay and go grey but instead he is sitting on the floor, holding his chest. He can feel the emptiness of where it should be.
They both look up to Zola's hand to see Tyler's heart glowing, still pumping. "As long as it stays in my hand, he lives. But I can easily let go of it"
Zola starts to let the heart go, letting Tyler skin start to grey over and him groaning in pain. She grips it again, walking towards Bonnie "Or you can do the spell that's needed to unlink my family from each other."
"But I was gonna-"
"Don't bullshit me BonBon. You were gonna wait until the right moment for Tyler to come in and take out the one thing that can take out two originals. Weren't you?" Zola pushed, wanting a reaction from the witch "You were never gonna do the spell. Well now you have to do it, or would you rather me just let Tyler die"
Bonnie shakes her head, desperate for her friend to live "I'll do it"
"Good because they are right on time"
The Mikaelson family come speeding in, well 4 out of 5. Rebekah holding Damon, Elijah holding Sage and Klaus holding Finn.
"Elskan, what happened? Are you okay?" Elijah asks, confused of what happened in the short time they were gone.
"I'm perfectly fine but Tyler now not so much. Long story short, Bonnie here tricked you Nikki. She was never gonna do the spell. She was gonna wait until our guard was down just for Tyler to come in and kill me. Two birds with one stone" Zola said, getting up from her crouched position to look at Damon.
"What are you guys planning?"
"Nothing"
Emily scoffed, getting up from her kneeled position "There are 12 white oaks. It was distributed amongst themselves, ready to take you guys out at any point"
Zola sighs "So 12 white oak stakes huh?"
"How-"
"Unimportant, get your brother to bring them all. Or you just might find yourself without a girlfriend. I think Nikki won't mind losing his blood bag" Zola looked questioning towards Klaus who is admiring his mate with how fierce she is looking.
He wouldn't be embarrassed to say it's kind of turning him on.
"What is wrong with you?!" Damon yelled, shocked that Zola is acting like this. The same Zola who used to be scared of her own shadow "They changed you"

"No, you changed me. I didn't start to get those 'nightmares' until you and your brother came into town, bringing a whole bunch of trouble with you. So really, you changed me. They just helped me find myself. Call your brother" Zola snapped, walking away from the room, trying to get in control of her magic that is seconds away from killing everyone in that room, minus her mates and remaining Mikaelson.
She walks into the family room, with the heart still glowing in her hand. Emily followed her, hoping to help ease her mind.
"You are doing good. This is what's needed to show these fragile children. You have all the power in the world, and you need to show them that you are not to be messed with nor your mates" Emily placed her hand onto Zola's shoulder even though she can't feel it anyways.
Zola nodded, turning towards the doorway when she heard footsteps approaching. Elijah and Klaus enter, looking at her concern.
Zola sighs, starting to let the anger go and what is left is just pure pain. She starts to cry, throwing herself at them, hoping to receive comfort and she does.
"Love, what you did back there was amazing. No need to feel bad. Really they deserved it, just wished you weren't trying to kill Tyler. Only have so many hybrids left with Stefan killing them and having to send them away" Klaus complained, looking at the heart in her hand.
"He isn't sired anymore so really it wouldn't even matter" Emily muttered to Zola, then disappearing. Giving her space and privacy.
Zola scoffs, shaking her head "Apparently, he wasn't sired anymore"
"How?"
She shrugged, moving around so Klaus is in front of her and Elijah is behind her. She rested her head back onto Elijah's shoulder, reeling in her feelings.
"Do you think I'm a monster now? I mean I literally ripped his heart out and still holding it" Zola muttered, feeling somewhat disgusted with herself. Elijah gripped her hips while Klaus placed his hand on her face, making her look at him.
"Love, if you think this is monstrous then I don't want to know what you think of me"
Klaus leans down closer to her, brushing his lips against herself "Plus, that was a major turn on for us. Seeing you all fierce, ready to put someone in their place"
Zola blushes, moving her face into his neck, trying to hide from the world. All this with the heart in her hand.
But they don't stay like that for long, Rebekah comes into the room "Damon called Stefan, I gave him until tonight. Right before Bonnie does her spell. Said she needs the full moon for yet"
"No she doesn't. But it's whatever. She just better hope my fingers don't start to cramp up"
They did in fact cramped up, resulting in her almost dropping the heart. She scared Bonnie and Tyler who looked like they had shitted her pants.
The Mikaelson family, Bonnie, Sage, Damon and Tyler are now in a big room, that originally Rebekah had ready to torture Damon.
"Kol texted, said he hates us for making him miss the fun. Boring back in Denver" Rebekah relayed, texting her brother back.
"Denver but that's where" Bonnie started to say but widens her eyes, knowing Jeremy is in trouble. "Jeremy"
"Come on, you're after Little Gilbert now" Damon groaned, trying not to move his hands that are stuck in bear traps.
Zola shrugs, looking towards Klaus who looked back at her, feeling caught
"So he was my intended leverage against Bonnie but this works way better love"

"Well it worked. Stefan, glad to see you here with a big bag hopefully filled with those stakes" Rebekah called out "Wouldn't want anything to happen to poor Lockwood or your brother. Or really anyone, Zola said everyone is fair game."
"Everything is in there, just please let them go" Elena tried to reason, walking in from behind Stefan with the rest of the Scooby gang. Rebekah groaned, walking away from them to Zola.
Or rather behind her. The most protected place to be.
"Not until after the spell is done. Once the spell is done, we trade. Which to be honest, is a fair one." Zola states, playing around with the heart.
"Zola please. I know we don't talk much but don't kill Tyler" Caroline pleads, eyes locked to the heart in her hand. Zola ignores her, turning to look at Bonnie.
"What are you waiting for? Let's get this done"
Bonnie nods, moving towards the table which has all of the Mikaelson blood and a paper present with all the names of the Mikaelson siblings. She pours all their blood onto the table and started the spell.
Once finished, Zola walks towards the table to see a tree representing the family.
"Is it done?"
"Yes" Both Bonnie and Emily state, and Zola nods.
"Now that the spell is done, give them back" Stefan declared, trying to sound firm but even Zola can hear the slight waver in his voice.
"The stakes first"
"I'm not stupid"
"I can beg a differ"
"Zola" Alaric says, practically whimpering her name to get her attention "Please"
Zola looks at him hard for a few moments, studying him. Trying to get any feeling from him "Bonnie first while Stefan and Rebekah exchange Damon for the bag"
Everyone seems to be okay with that, nodding.
Rebekah grabbed Damon, practically throwing him into Stefan's arms, and quickly grabbed the bag, speeding behind her brothers counting the stakes. Bonnie runs straight into Elena's arms, sobbing out of fear.
"Now Tyler Zo" Alaric demanded, well tried but he was met with several growls. Loudest ones coming from her mates.
Zola looks towards Tyler and nods, letting him stand up and run to Caroline.
"My heart" Tyler gasped out in pain
Everyone turned their attention to Zola who had walked all the way to the fireplace without being detected. Scooby gang shuffled forward alittle ready to intervene but one look from Klaus and Elijah, made them step back. Well all but one.
Caroline takes the opportunity with everyone's attention on Zola and vamp-speeds. She almost made it to her before she was thrown into the air. Caroline lands onto her back.
"Emily"
Everyone sees the woman standing right in front of Zola, with her hand out and glaring at the blonde vampire. She then disappears, right back to the other side.
"Nice having all this power. Truly it is. I made Emily a personal door, well did. She closed it permanently. She really is big on fate." Zola turns around, gripping the heart tighter in her hand. Tyler whimpered in pain, holding his chest harder.
"Zola please, just give it back and we will leave" Caroline pleads, grabbing Tyler into her arms again.
"Goddamn it Zola. What are you playing at here? You won okay. You have all the stakes and you obviously have the power. You won" Alaric insisted "But this isn't you. You don't just go around killing people. Now please stop before you do something you regret."
"Well let's see How many stakes are there Bekah?" Zola calls out.
"There's 12" 11
"Good but I feel like I'm missing something" Zola states, shaking her head "Uh right, Father. Come"
Alaric looked at her wary but she pointedly glared at Tyler, squeezing the heart harder making him groan out again.
"Okay, stop" Alaric walks, stopping in front of her.
"I'm going to ask you a very important question" Zola states, bringing the heart up playfully examining it. "Did you know that they were planning on killing me to get to Klaus and Elijah?"
Alaric looks shocked and betrayed "No.. I-I. I promise you Zola. I wouldn't do that. No matter the differences I wouldn't kill you"
"No you wouldn't but that isn't what I asked."
"Zola I swear on my life, I didn't. You are my daughter" Alaric tries to walk closer to her but Zola steps back "I see what I have done wrong. I should've just let you be, let you decide for yourself. Maybe we would be able to bond but I ruined that didn't I?"
Alaric tries again but this time she lets him. He grabs into a hug, holding her tightly against her. "I'm all you have left. And I know now that I need to be there for you, like I should've been before. I love you ZoZo"
Tears start to gather in her eyes, she steps away from him "All I have?"
She shakes her head, putting her free hand onto her eyes. Covering teary eyes in pain.
"All I have?" She exclaims, laughing angrily.
"All I have is 11 stakes where I am supposed to have 12" Zola hissed, and the Scooby gang looked around, defeated. "Where?"
"We don't know. I had blacked out and the other me hid it. Zo please" Alaric pleaded, watching his daughter start to become more and more frustration.
"Then why lie? Not tell the truth"
"How did you know there wasn't 12 when Rebekah told you there was?" Elena fired back, trying to turn the tables onto Zola.
"The spirits told me" Zola laugh out in frustration "The spirits been way more truthfully than any of you lately"
Zola then went back to glaring at her father, ripping her hand away from her face
"And for your information, I stopped 'having' you, the minute they" She points at the group in front of her, in angry and pain "they came into our life"
Zola starts to tremble, looking distraught "Did you forget that I am holding a beating heart in my hand? So if I can do that, don't you think I can get into someone's mind so easily as yours to find everything you are saying right now is pure bullshit"
"You don't care about me anymore. You don't think about me as your daughter but rather the enemy. And most importantly, you don't love me anymore" Zola cried out, looking down to the heart in her hand. "You were the only thing keeping me here, you know. I mean guess you didn't"
Alaric tried to speak out but Zola stopped him, locking eye contact with him "I guess I can consider myself an orphan seeing as both of my parents are dead to me right?"
Zola painfully laughs out, walking forward to Tyler. She crouched down and put the heart back into his chest. She looks up to Caroline "Wouldn't want you to feel how broken a heart can get"
Zola turns to her mates, getting approval from the two people she needed it from. She walked away from Caroline, letting her cry out.
The Scooby gang is brought to tears and grieving screams when they see Matt fall down with a thud, his heart no longer beating. Elena runs over to him, pulling him into her arms, crying out.
"Why?" Alaric whimpers to his former daughter, who is grabbing her mates hand and pulling them out the house.
"I didn't need just her but all of you to feel that feeling. Because if you ever try to kill my mates again, I will kill Elena next. And I'll make it hurt" Zola calls out over her shoulder. "Get me that damn stake. Or next, it will be Bonnie who dies. The spirits are just wishing to get their hands on you Bennett, so take this as a warning"
What they didn't see was the tears that finally fell. Grieving out for what she lost.
The love from her father.
But her mates are there to catch her when the feeling becomes overbearing, making her knees buckle. She cries out in how much emotional pain she is in.
Her pain even brings pain to the spirits that are surrounding her.
To Rebekah, Finn and even Sage.
This truly broke her but Elijah and Klaus will be there to put her back to pieces, no matter how long it takes.
