013 —FLYNN'S MASTERPLAN

Flynn now sat next to Klaus who was drinking scotch in the bar room, he had tried to swipe some but the man was relentless. Elijah,Rebekah, Mikael and Freya soon walk in to join them to discuss their plan on what they were going to do about Dahlia.

"Well, that sounds like a bloody fiasco." Rebekah commented as she walked into the compound. "Where's Dahlia now?"

"She could be anywhere. Wasn't a trace of her left at the church." Elijah said sounding defeated.

"She's done with us for the night." Freya spoke. "No doubt she wants us to take some time to wallow in our defeat." She said bitterly knowing Dahlia.

"Defeat?" Klaus questioned as he downed his scotch before turning around to face them as he had been leant against his bar. "I disagree. we saw her face, we took her measure. If that's the best she's got, quite frankly, I'm unimpressed."

"Her aim was not to impressed us. She wanted us to reveal our sole weapon. And like fools, we did." Mikael spat annoyed at their ignorance.

"Am I hearing things, or did our brother just exchange words with our Father?" Rebekah asked incredulously, not expecting them to be in the same room without trying to kill one another.

Mikael smiled at his daughter. "Rebekah. I'd know that wicked tongue anywhere. What mischief have you gotten yourself into now? No doubt the bastard's doing." He asked referring to Klaus.

Klaus scowled angered at his Father's words. "Enough. My patience, like this farce of a reunion, is at an end."

Flynn who was still sat on a stool in front of the bar held up his hand causing them to turn to the boy.

He shrunk under their gaze. "Didn't want to interrupt your family uh reunion but uh it's looks like you've all got this handled, so I'm gonna go and uh find Rapunzel as you all seem to be preoccupied." He told them as he stood up to make his way out but Klaus stopped him.

"Flynn. You're not going anywhere, sit back down." He said not in the mood for Flynn's attitude.

"Oh yeah? Are you gonna stop me old man? I know where she is. I'm going." He replied squaring up the Hybrid.

Klaus fumed as he sighed deeply repressing his urges to throw the boy across the room. "Dahlia will be there."

"I don't care." Flynn shrugged, he knew the woman would be but all he could think about in the moment was Rapunzel and getting her back safely.

"You'll die." He warned.

"I don't care! I just want— I need her to be safe."

"Look, you help us take down Dahlia and then Rapunzel will be safe. Stick to the plan."

"Screw the plan!" Flynn said throwing his hands up in frustration. "How did that work out for you last time? Yeah Rapunzel got kidnapped and I got stabbed! So no I'm not sticking to the plan. I have my own plan, I'm going to go and get her myself."

Klaus sighed at the boys persistence, he knew he wasn't going to just back down anytime soon so instead he decided to just go with the hard truth and scare the boy into submission. "If you go you'll likely die and you're not going to want to die in the next 24 hours."

"Why not?" Flynn made a face confused as to why Klaus put a time range on it.

"Because my blood healed you and if you die you come back as a vampire." He explained

"Excuse me — sorry what?!" He screamed as he looked down at this body freaking out. "A a- vampire! Omg this is insane...am I going to die, I'm too pretty to be dead." Flynn whined as he ran a hand through his hair messing it up.

"So, sit down and stick to the plan." Klaus scolded him like a child as he pointed back to the chair Flynn was previously sat on.

Flynn begrudgingly sat back down, he didn't want to. Everything in him wanted to go and find Rapunzel he couldn't imagine what she must be feeling right now. But Klaus was right as much as he hated to say it, he couldn't be irrational and get himself killed in the process, they needed a plan.

"Agreed. There only is one question here— what exactly are we doing?" Elijah said asking the sensible question.

"This was not my plan." Freya replied furiously, as she had been planned this for so long only for it to blow up in flames literally. "You rushed it and made but a single weapon! Of course she took it from you! And now, we've lost what advantage we had and used up the very materials we needed to kill her." Freya took a breath. "Not the mention I have a daughter? That you drove away straight into Dahlia's awaiting arms so i would like to hear what your next plan is." Freya ranted as she pushed some stray hair out of her face as she pressed her palms to her forehead to try and relieve the stress she was feeling.

"It's a bit histrionic. Your materials are easily found. Let's take stock, shall we?" Klaus pointed to Freya. "There's an ample supply of your blood— no need for Rapunzel's as we now know you're related, Norwegian soil is hardly scarce... what else?" He pretends to think. "Ah, yes— the ashes of Dahlia's Viking oppressors."

"Only priceless relics gotten with great difficulty at a museum. Lost due to your worthless strategy!" Mikael spat at Klaus annoyed.

Klaus angrily vamp-speeds over to Mikael, pinning him to the wall and shoving the tip of the indestructible white oak stake into his chest. Mikael doesn't move or fight back, he doesn't show any sign of fear or discomfort he simply stares at Klaus as Freya tries to lunge forward towards Klaus but is held back by Elijah.

"NO!" She screams.

"If I feel even the faintest touch of your magic, Freya, I will end him with a flick of my wrist!" He promises before addressing Mikael.

"You don't seem surprised." He almost taunted, as he pushed the stake a little further, Mikael gasped as he felt it brush against his heart.

"Betrayal is in your nature, boy."

"No." Klaus denied. "I wasn't born like this. Her, you fight for, lovely Freya, the daughter you barely know. But there was a time where you knew me as your son! A time before all the disappointments, the revelations of betrayal." His voice shakes as tears begin to fill his eyes as he recalls his past childhood.

"There were moments where all you had to do was be my father! And even then, you despised me, didn't you?" He yells as tears fell from his eyes. "I want to know why." He demands seeking the answer to the question he has always asked himself countless times.

Mikael was surprised at Klaus' vulnerability as he never shows his emotions. He didn't really know how to respond to him. "I don't know. I just...did." His reply was honest and unexpectedly soft without any form of malice or teasing.

Klaus looked overwhelmed by this admission, as he and Mikael stare each other in the eyes for what felt like the longest moment. Elijah is still holding Freya back, but all three of them seem surprised by this uncharacteristic vulnerability from Mikael. Finally, Klaus forces himself to stop crying and glares at Mikael hatefully, seemingly coming back to his original emotionless self.

"Are those your final words?" He asks his Father.

Mikael hesitates for a moment as he looks towards Freya with affection and regret in his eyes. "Freya, I'm so sorry. I love yo—" He was cut off as Klaus plunged the stake into his heart, enraged at his tenderness towards a daughter he never even knew.

Mikael cried out in agony as Freya screamed. Elijah struggled with holding her back, he too seemed slightly upset at the scene but he didn't make any move in stopping his brother. Klaus backs away, looking conflicted as he watches Mikael reach out for them before falling to his knees and keeling over. After his body has fully desiccated, it goes up in flames as Freya continues to sob uncontrollably in Elijah's arms.

"NOOO-OOO-OOOO-OOOOO!" Freya continued to cry. She had finally reunited with one parent only to have him ripped away from her just as quickly.

Klaus turns to Freya and feigns as though he's not in the least bit upset. "Viking ashes indeed rare? All you really need is a burning Viking corpse." He said as he left the room without another word. Elijah kept a tight grip on Freya knowing that if he let go she would attack him out of anger and devastation. Rebekah and Elijah both stare at Klaus unhappily as he leaves, stunned as they take one last look at their Fathers burning corpse.

Flynn shuffled as he blinked multiple times trying to tap his head around what had just happened within the last minute of him standing there. He could feel bile threaten to erupt from his throat but he pushed it down as he looked over to the remaining Mikaelson siblings. He had to admit that he wasn't shocked at Klaus' actions, he did say he wanted to kill the man multiple times, it still felt weird to see it unfold though. It wasn't the first time Flynn had seen a dead body but he realises that it doesn't get any easier.

☆☆☆

Flynn was roaming around the quarter avoiding the whole Mikaelson family drama when he received a text from Josh asking him to "borrow" something off of Klaus. Flynn knew he could do it, it's what he's been doing his whole life but now a part of him actually felt strange...guilty even for doing it, but he shrugged off the feeling not wanting to admit where it came from. Instead, he easily broke into Klaus' office and swiped some magical shackles Josh needed for god knows what,  Flynn didn't really want to know the answer to that as his mind only went to one place... and it wasn't a very pleasant thought.

Flynn strolls into the building where Davina, Josh and another guy who Flynn guessed was Josh's boyfriend where gathered.

He holds up the handcuffs presenting them to the trio. "Got the goods, for whatever freaky stuff you guys are into, I'm not judging." He holds his hands up in surrender.

Josh rolls his eyes in frustration. "They're not for me, they're for Hope."

Flynn gave the boy a horrified look. "You want to shackle a baby!" He hissed. "Dude that's some dark shit. I don't think I want any part in this...God Josh! That's—"

Davina hit Flynn on the shoulder. "It's to conceal her magic idiot."

"Yeah I know..." He whined. "I was just teasing Dee." He then quickly looked back at Josh before back to Davina. "But I wouldn't put it past him using it for himself." He whispered to her knowing that Josh could still hear him.

"I could snap your neck?"
"Bet then you'd be stuck with me forever." Flynn placed his hands on Josh's shoulder as he batted his eyelashes.

Josh scowled as he pushed the boy off of him. "So the plan..."
