21'  Après Moi, Le Déluge Part 2

꧁꧂

Rebekah helped Wanda get up to her room, with Kol trailing behind, worried for her. Wanda sat on the edge of the bed still dazed by what she saw. Rebekah sat next to the girl "What happened Wanda?" she asked worried.

Kol leaned against the doorframe, "I... I don't know what happened or even what I saw." Wanda shakily responded. "What do you mean saw?" Kol gently asked, not wanting to push her. "When I went into Davina's mind to sleep her, i-it's like it triggered something in my own mind." the girl said.

"I saw my own universe" Wanda said looking at Rebekah and Kol, "I saw my team... fight" she said remembering the visions she saw. "What do you mean?" Rebekah asked not catching on.

"It was like I could see what happened in the reality where I'm from" Wanda explained, she got up "My team, the Avengers, broke up. Something to do with the accords and what happened in Sokovia, he wanted revenge on us. To break us up." Wanda at this point was rambling but Rebekah and Kol were glad they were vampires.

"He set bucky up, and now Tony hates Cap." Wanda said, "I saw them fight" she said looking at the two siblings, "Barnes killed Tony's parents and Cap knew..." Wanda's eyes widened as she remembered a part of the vision.

"Tony and the council blame Steve for my disappearance." Wanda said. "Ok... so basically using your powers to sleep Davina caused you to see what was going in your world?" Rebekah repeated.

"Yes" Wanda said starting to feel slightly dizzy, "Yeah, ok, so not weird." Rebekah muttered, "Wanda, are you okay?" Kol asked seeing her get dizzy, "Yeah... yeah I-m fi-" she started but her sight went black.

Kol watched her pass out and quickly caught her, bridal style. He laid her on the bed and looked down at her, he gently kissed her forehead and smiled. Rebekah cleared her throat, "Let's go, let her rest." the blonde said walking out. Kol walked away and took a final glance at her, he had accepted their special bond, he just had to wait for her to do the same.

Rebekah comes back after striking a deal with Sophie, she goes to check up on Wanda but she's gone. "Wanda?" the blonde calls out, she looks on the floor and saw a sedative syringe on the floor next to her bed, she ran to Davina's room and sees the guard with their neck snapped, she sped in and the little witch was gone too.

Rebekah was upset Marcel took Davina, but that he took Wanda too, that made her furious. She phoned Elijah knowing full well Kol was with them.

"Rebekah" Elijah speaks into the phone.

"He's taken them."

"Woah, who?"

"Wanda and Davina, Marcel took them!" Rebekah said.

"He took Wanda!?" Rebekah heard Kol shout.

"I'm gonna rip his bloody head off his body!" Kol was fuming.

"And you wanted to run off and start a life with this backstabber." Klaus said into the phone.

"Says the man who was shacking up with him not two seconds before all this went down. Ok, We need to divide and conquer if we're gonna stand a chance of getting them back. He could have gone anywhere." Rebekah said.

"Well, I'm here with Sabine. Perhaps we could try a locator spell?" Elijah said, wanting to find Wanda.

"I'll talk to the priest. They might even be at the church. It's the last place we'd think to look for them, right?" Klaus said.

"Ok. You check the church, I'll check everywhere else." Rebekah said.

"Kol, you're with me." Klaus said before Rebekah hung up.

Wanda felt her head pounding when she woke up, she was tied to a chair with her hands completely bound. Wanda tried to conjure up her powers but her head was spinning and she couldn't concentrate.

"You're awake" she heard a voice say. "Sorry about all this, I just knew you would help Klaus get Davina back and I couldn't have that." the voice said again but she now recognized it as Marcel's.

Wanda's vision was blurry so she couldn't see him well. Wanda was finding it hard to breathe. "A little birdy found out for me that you could get hurt any way a human can, probably the balance for having those types of powers." Marcel said.

"W-Why... are y-you doing t-this." she choked out feeling her throat dry, "You would help the Mikaelson's get Davina back, I'm not gonna kill you I just need to stall for now." he replied.

"Plus once I have Davina completely safe and secure I'll give you back." he said walking away.

Wanda didn't understand why she was getting worse by the second.

Klaus, Hayley, and Kol walked into the church, Kol kept clenching his fists. If he didn't like Marcel then, he definitely despised him now.

"We still haven't gone through all that you've already provided, Klaus, ah you brought the other Original." father Kieran said as they walked in. "Well, this newest bit isn't from me." Klaus said.

"Oh? That's very kind of you...?" Kieran said looking at Hayley.

"Hayley. And these people are?" she asked looking around, "I asked Father Kieran to give them shelter. He suffers from an incessant desire to do good. But now I need you to be useful. Marcel and Davina have disappeared, along with a person dear to me and my family. I assume from the stupefied look on your face they haven't sought refuge in your attic." Klaus said.

"No. Those days are gone." Kieran responded, "Then energize your resources. I don't need to remind you how important it is they be found." Klaus told him.

Kieran nodded and left the church, "These people, they're werewolves, and the priest, he said that you donated the food. You're helping them?" Hayley asked slightly surprised, as she was also trying to get her mind off of Wanda's disappearance since she was terrified for her.

"They're not your werewolves. They're my clan. From very far back. They've fallen upon hard times, and their plight has brought out the philanthropist in me. What can I say? Must be Elijah's influence." Klaus spoke.

"What do you mean your clan?" Hayley asked even more confused, "The blood that runs in their veins runs in mine. And in our child's." Klaus told her.

"This family gets more complicated by the second." Hayley muttered, "Listen, Hayley, word of advice when dealing with Elijah. Don't do as I do. Just apologize. He's accomplished in many things, but he is a master of forgiveness." Klaus said.

Kol would have made a remark by now, but having the girl he loved, taken, had him in a pissy mood. "Can you two finish your heartfelt conversation later, and focuse on finding Wanda, I don't care who we have to kill." he said frustrated.

"We will get her back, my dear younger brother not to worry." Klaus told him.

"Plus I imagine Elijah is also doing what he can to find her." Hayley said to the younger Mikealson.

Rebekah, Elijah, Klaus, and Kol were in the Abattoir, "It's taken 1,000 years, but you've finally gone mad. Our own mother?" Rebekah almost shouted at him.

"Yes, our beloved mother, who Niklaus has affectionately placed in a coffin in his basement, not daggered but quite dead." Elijah said.

"She did try to kill us all." Kol remarked, "Well, I say we put her to use and put her to rest once and for all. Now if we bury our mother on land owned by one of her descendents, she becomes a New Orleans witch, and we as her family share in that ancestral magic." Elijah explained.

"We're vampires, Elijah. We can't practice magic or own property for that matter." Rebekah reminded.

"Yes. With regard to practicing magic." Elijah stated.

"And as for owning property Not all of our mother's descendents are dead." The older Mikealson said, "The baby" Klaus said.

"The baby. The parish tax assessor's office is just steps outside of the quarter. Hayley now holds the title to the plantation. So if we bury our mother there and we consecrate those grounds, we can finish the harvest ritual." Elijah explained.

"You're a bit of a mad genius, Elijah. Count me in." Klaus smirked, "If it means we get Wanda back, I don't care what is done." Kol said.

"Am I the only one thinking? Our mother was the most powerful witch in history. If we bury her, we hand that power to our enemies to use against us." Rebekah said,

"Given our circumstances, I hardly see that we have a choice, Rebekah." Elijah said, "I don't know why I bother. You three will just do what you want anyway. Just get Wanda back." Rebekah told them.

"No. Our decision must be unanimous." Elijah said, "This is not a democracy." Klaus stated. "You're quite right. This is family. Water. The next sign's begun. Rebekah?" Elijah said to the blonde.

"Kill a demon today, face the devil tomorrow. Count me in." Rebekah said, wanting Wanda back.

"Well, this is no family reunion without our mother. I'll fetch her." Klaus said walking away.

Rebekah and Kol walked into the Garden, "So much for your grand schemes of using Davina for revenge." Thierry said.

"Survival first, plots to overthrow my brother second. Where would Marcel hide something precious to him?" Rebekah asked.

"You think I'm just gonna offer that up so you can leave me here to rot? Water runs downhill. You think I have to have drowned before to know how much that will suck." Thierry spat.

Kol walked up to him, "Fire kills vampires, Thierry. You think burning to ash will be pleasant?" he spat as Rebekah pulled him back.

"Look. I am not forsaking you. I promise to live up to my end of the deal. I'll get you out of here when all of this is done. Just tell me where Marcel would go." Rebekah said.

"There's a place by the docks." Thierry said, Kol was gone in a second.

Rebekah sighed, "Yeah no, don't worry about me! I'll catch up." she complained going after him.

The two siblings arrived at the docks, "You get the witch, I'll look for Wanda, keep your boyfriend out of my sight or I won't hesitate to rip his heart out in front of you." Kol told his sister then was gone.

Rebekah sighed shaking her head and went for the witch.

Kol checked every place until he found a room that was locked with vervain on the handles, he ripped the handle off ignoring his burning skin and walked inside. He sees chemical fumes on a counter and looks back at a girl strapped to a chair.

He runs over to Wanda and rips the ropes off her, Wanda felt her hands loose pressure, she weakly looked up and by the feeling she got, she knew it was Kol.

"K-Kol?" she whispered, "I'm here my love, I'm here." Kol said he bit into his wrist offering it to her which she drank, he picked her up bridal style holding her close to him, Wanda buried her head into his chest, his embrace felt like home to her.

Kol placed a kiss into her hair and sped them home, he placed Wanda on her bed. He went to walk away but a hand grabbed his stopping him.

"Can you stay?" she softly asked, scared he would say no. Kol felt his insides melt at the sight, he nodded and slide into bed next to her slipping his arm around her. Wanda placed her head onto his chest snuggled closer to his side.

Wanda knew she didn't deserve him, especially after how she had treated him. "I'm sorry" she whispered before letting sleep take over.

"For what, angel?" he asked but he looked down and saw her sleeping, he smiled and closed his eyes. He knew the Harvest was taking place but he could honestly care less, having her in his arms was all that was important to him, his siblings could do it without him.

He tightened his arms around her, and had the best sleep he'd had in awhile.
