Wanda walked into the kitchen to find blood all over the counter. She sighed knowing who had done it, "Hayley!" the girl shouted throughout the house. The hybrid suddenly appeared, "What?" she asked, "I know vampires have cravings or what not, but could you not leave this when I'm trying to make myself something." the redhead said knowing that anything else she said would go through one ear out the other.

Hayley rolls her eyes, "Have Elijah or Kol take care of it." she said before speeding away, Wanda groaned before deciding to just starve. Kol appeared with a smile on his face "Would you mind cleaning up the mess in the kitchen, being the only person who doesn't feed on blood means I need a kitchen." Wanda complained.

Kol chuckled while leaning down to press a kiss to the girls lips, he pulled back after a moment "Consider it done, my love." he said before speeding away.

Wanda saw Elijah walk in and look bewildered at the dead bodies and blood everywhere, the Mikaelson looked at her while Wanda pointed to Hayley's room.

Kol was cleaning the counter when his phone rang, he looked down at his to see a message from an unknown number.

' Lafayette Cemetery '

The message read, Kol looked confused. He shoved his phone back in his pocket wanting to ignore it, but curiosity was getting the best of him.

The Original put down the rag before making his way towards the entrance, "Kol? Where you going?" Wanda asked from behind him, Kol turned around and walked towards the girl.

"I have to go somewhere, I'll be back soon." he said knowing he didn't want worry her if it was nothing. Wanda narrowed her eyes at him, Kol sighed "Just trust me." he said, Wanda sighed and nodded. Kol cupped her face with his hands before pressing a kiss to her forehead.

He let her go and sped away, towards the cemetery. 

Kol arrived but didn't see anyone, "If this is some sick prank, consider me not amused!" the vampire shouted, suddenly a girl with a brunette pixie cut walked out a man right behind her.

"Kol, it's been awhile." the girl said smiling as Kol looked confused as to how the witch knew him. "Who the bloody hell are you?" he asked.

"I am your mother." the girl said as Kol's eyes widened. "You jumped bodies?" the vampire said almost unbelieving. "I have taken the body of the fourth Harvest girl, Cassie." she said.

"Alright, well what do you want with me, mother?" he said almost mockingly, "Watch your tone when talking to our mother, Kol." the male who was next to Esther said. "Finn?" Kol said disbelieving.

"I have brought your brother back, as a witch." Esther said, "How-?" Kol started. "Kol, your brothers have always wronged you." Cassie/Esther said trying to turn her son against his older brothers.

"Where are you going with this?" Kol asked in a bored tone, "How many times have they struck a dagger into your chest?" The witch asked, Kol stiffened as he relived every memory.

"They even daggered you for a boy who wasn't their own flesh, cared for him more than you, their younger brother." Esther said, "We all know this now why are you telling me this?" Kol snapped.

"I want you to help me." the girl said, Kol laughed "Right after you tried to kill all of us?" he said.

"I just want to right my wrongs, son." Esther said, "Why should I help you?" Kol asked glaring at his poor excuse for a mother.

"Why would you defend you're brothers? I have watched from the otherside every time they would cast you away like a rag, they do not care for you." Esther told him, Kol narrowed his eyes but couldn't say anything because a part of him believed those words.

"I can give you back what was taken from you." the witch said making Kol listen with interest, "I can remake you into a witch, just like your brother." Esther said. "You're brothers will never truly care for you, they will dagger you again and again because you are uncappable of being loved as this monster." she said.

Esther held out her hand "Let me help you" she said, Kol looked at her held out hand and thought. He had almost given in when a certain girl flashed into his mind.

"I love you, Kol Mikaelson. Just as you are, and I wouldn't have it any other way." his redheaded girl smiled.

Kol smiled as he remembered the very night she spoke those words to him, he looked back at the witch, "I'd rather not, you see I have everything I need, mother" he said as he spat her name "I wouldn't betray that for anything." he smiled before speeding away.

Esther stood there furious with the outcome. "What do we do now, mother?" Finn/Vincent asked. "Keep an eye on his soulmate, I want you to know everything you can about her." the witch said.

"As you wish"

New Orleans, 1821

Kol is with Marcel in the courtyard of the compound, and has organized and compelled a group of men to act out Shakespeare for him. Marcel's lips are coated in blood.

"Please, let me go! Mr. Kol, I don't-I don't like this." Marcel pleaded, "Don't be absurd! Shakespeare should be experienced in the flesh! In truth, these aren't the finest actors, but we are in the colonies. Here!" gestures to the stage "Where were we?" Kol says.

"In venom to thy work!" one actor says. The actor takes a sword and runs another actor through with it. Marcel gasps in shock as the man falls dead to the floor.

"Exchange forgiveness with me, noble harlot-" actor 2 says but Kol stands up and shouts before walking toward Actor 2, "No! How many times must I tell you?" Kol grabs the top of the actor's head "It's Hamlet, not harlot." he sighed.

Kol snaps the actor's neck and drops his body to the floor. "Sometimes I don't know why I bother." he said. Elijah rushed into the courtyard, breathless.

"What have you done?" he asked his younger brother. "I was just introducing Marcellus to the theater. I thought you'd be pleased?" Kol said as Klaus walks into the compound going to check on Marcel.

"If the lad is going to be a vampire, he'll have to learn somehow, won't he? Come, I've already fed him my blood. All you have to do is snuff him, and voila. One of us. Well, that's what you want, isn't it?" Kol asked his two brothers.

Elijah grabs Kol in a choke-hold and shoves him backwards, where Klaus grabs Kol's arms. "Let him go, Elijah." Klaus said and Elijah reluctantly let him go.

"Thank you, Nik. At least someone knows the meaning of family." Kol smiled, "I told you before," Klaus turns Kol around to face him "Marcellus is family." he said.

Klaus daggers Kol once again while Elijah holds him down.

Kol awakes suddenly, breathing heavily. He looks to his side where Wanda laid sleeping, he smiled and laid back down pulling the girl towards him. The Mikaelson buried his head into the girls neck, inhaling her scent. He calmed down and went back to sleep.

Kol appeared before Wanda in a second, "Why don't we go have dinner?" the vampire asked while placing his hands on her waist. Wanda smiled "I'd love too." she said.

The two went walking towards Rousseau's when Wanda sees Davina and a boy surrounded by growling wolves. Wanda ran sending the wolves flying with her powers, she surrounded multiple wolves sending them flying against the wall. Suddenly a man came in and grabbed the wolf who lunged at Davina.

"Filthy dogs." the male spat, Kol grabbed Wanda pulling her back as he stood completely shocked and afraid at the sight of his father. They watched as Mikael ripped the wolves into pieces.

Davina is grabbed by a wolf and loses her bracelet making Mikael smirk. Wanda threw her magic at the wolf that threw him off of her.

"Well, now. What an interesting turn of events." Mikael smirks as he carries her away, Wanda goes to attack him when a wolf launches at her. Kol rips the werewolfs heart out "I don't think so." he growled.

Wanda looked to see Elijah struggling as his father tries to shove the white oak stake in his heart. Davina shouts at her "I need my bracelet. I can use it to control him!"

Wanda looks around and spots it she grabs the thing throwing it at the witch. Davina puts it on "STOP! Go back, NOW." she screamed, Mikeal sighs and speeds back to the church.

Kol was still shocked by the appearance of Mikeal, Elijah groaned while healing. Wanda was slightly confused at the man who had just rescued and attacked.

Kol looked back at the boy who is behind the counter, "Something to say?" he asked, "Not me. Not a thing." the boy said shocked.

Elijah limps still in pain from the white oak that almost killed him, the three appeared at the Mikaelson Mansion.

"It is worse than we thought. I met the witch, Cassie. I studied her, her presence, the way she carried herself. The fervor with which she voice her hatred of our kind. I looked into that girl's eyes, and, I swear to you, Elijah, she's just just guided by our mother. She is our mother." Klaus said clearly angered.

Kol straightened at the mention of Esther. "What is happening?" Wanda asks stunned and confused. "Niklaus-" Elijah starts but Klaus cuts him off.

"What? What could possibly be more important than the return of our mother?" Klaus snapped. "Our father. I saw him standing there in the flesh, as you do now. He was enslaved with some spell cast by Davina. He holds the stake. If she chooses to release him..." Elijah said.

Wanda was shocked at was just revealed, that was their father?

"Well, then there's only one question we need to ask, isn't there? Which of our parents do we kill first?" Klaus asked looking at Elijah then Kol but noticed the hardened look on his younger brothers face.

The three brothers and Wanda move to the courtyard where Hayley is leading in the Crescent wolves who aren't aligned with Cassie/Esther.

"Take any rooms on the first floor!" she said to the pack. "Are we running a kennel now?" Klaus asked, "I'll handle them." Hayley said.

"Our family is under siege. It is not the time for guests." Klaus said to her, "If they're not with us, they're with the witches. You asked me to step up. This is me stepping up." Hayley responded.

"Well, it seems I'm a good influence on you after all." Klaus smiled but Kol scoffed and walked away. Wanda walked after him and saw him sat on the edge of his bed with his head in his hands.

Wanda sat next to him and placed her hand on his knee, "If you need to talk I'm here." she gently said. Kol sighed before hugging her, the Original buried his face into the crook of her neck.

Wanda stayed there while running her hands through his hair to comfort him.

The two lovers found comfort in each others embrace.
