Chapter Two: Gather Up The Killers
Nobody's Pov
Everyone reluctantly did as told.
None of them wanted to stay here but they had to admit that they were curious to know if this witch lady was telling them the truth or not.
And considering they can't really leave, they have no choice but to obey.
They just hope that none of this was a waste of their time.
The Miyagi-Do students sat together while the Cobra Kai students sat together.
Johnny, Carmen and Rosa sat together.
Chozen and Mike sat near them and kept on checking on their students to make sure they were alright.
Silver sat near his students while observing the place and the witch closely.
Amanda tried grabbing Sam and Anthony so they could sit with her but they both pulled away from her.
Sam glared at her, a scowl plastered on her face, before walking over to sit with Miguel.
Anthony shook his head at his mother before going to sit with his teammates.
Amanda frowned and looked down, trying not to cry.
She felt someone hold her hand and turned to see it was Chozen who was offering her a small smile.
She knew he was trying to offer her some comfort.
Amanda smiled faintly at him and allowed him to pull her down to sit on an empty seat next to him.
As soon as everyone was seated, and all was silent, Gertrude snapped her fingers and the screen began to turn on.
The screen turns on and we're given a nice view of beautiful white house in the woods, nothing but birds chirping could be heard.
The camera pans inside the house and we head into one of the bedrooms.
Inside the bedroom we still a little girl around the age of 7 sitting on her bed as she colored in her book.
Almost everyone looked at the screen either in confusion or annoyance.
They were supposed to be watching Daniel so why were they watching some random kid?
Johnny gritted his teeth in annoyance and looked over at Gertrude.
"Hey, witch lady, what the hell is this?!" Johnny yelled.
"Yeah, you told us we were going to be watching Daniel. Not some little girl" Mike added.
Everyone voiced out their agreements causing Gertrude to sigh in annoyance.
"Can you all just be patient and watch? It's not that hard" Gertrude rolled her eyes.
Everyone either glared or scowled at her.
Amanda opened her mouth to say something only to stop when Chozen placed a hand on her shoulder, rubbing it comfortingly.
Amanda closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths, feeling herself calm down.
She reopened her eyes and nodded at Chozen, thanking him, causing him to nod back at her.
Everyone put their attention back on the screen and the episode resumed.
Footsteps are heard and the camera pans over to the door where we see a figure leaning against it.
The figure is wearing a blue shirt, black jeans and black boots.
The figure is revealed to be Daniel Larusso.
Almost immediately gasps filled the theater as the scene paused on Daniel.
The Miyagi-Do students eyes were wide open and they were staring at the screen with shock.
"Oh my god" Miguel gasped, his hand coming up to cover his mouth.
"Holy shit" Hawk muttered, still not taking his eyes off the screen.
"Dad...he's alive. My dads alive. Oh thank god" Sam breathed out in relief.
Her eyes began to water and before she knew it tears were streaming down her face.
She looked at Anthony and saw him looking at the screen with relief in his eyes and tears were streaming down his face.
But he didn't care and Sam didn't either about her own tears.
All they cared about was their dad and that their dad was alive.
After all this time thinking that something had happened to their dad, that there probably was a slight chance of him being dead, they were proven wrong.
Because their dad was safe, he was alive, and that's all they cared about.
Amanda covered her mouth with her hand, tears of her own streaming down her face, and quietly sobbed.
She was in the same boat as her kids.
Because Daniel, her husband, the man she loves, was alive and safe.
After all this time thinking that something bad had happened to him, more than that stupid ponytailed bastard beating him up, she was relieved to be proven wrong.
Chozen, who had a small smile on his face and tears gathering his eyes, placed a comforting hand on Amanda's shoulder.
He looked over at Johnny and Mike and saw the relief in their eyes and the smiles on their faces.
He knew that they were glad that their friend was alive.
Kim Da-Eun and the Cobra Kai students didn't react when seeing Daniel Larusso.
They were either staring at the screen blankly or weren't paying attention at all.
Surprisingly, the only two people that actually gave a reaction were Tory and Silver.
Tory would never admit this out loud but she was relieved that Mr. Larusso was alive.
When she learned what Silver had done to him she was worried but that worry grew into fear when she learned that Mr. Larusso disappeared.
She was honestly scared that Silver had done something to him to take him out of the picture.
Even after she learned that he had nothing to do with his disappearance she was still wary of him.
But here is proof that Silver had nothing to do with Mr. Larusso disappearing or getting rid of him.
And that was a huge relief for her.
Silver, on the other hand, was completely angry at seeing Larusso safe and alive.
When he learned that Larusso had disappeared the day after he left him in Stingray's apartment, beaten and defeated, he was genuinely shocked and confused.
But happy because he thought that after the beating he gave Larusso he learned his lesson.
And that made him not only leave him alone but made him leave everything behind and never look back.
He personally didn't care where Larusso had gone or if anything were to happen to him.
He was just glad that he was out of the picture.
But, seeing that he's safe and alive and actually doing well irks him.
Because he expected to see Larusso miserable and at his breaking point.
Looks like that wasn't the case.
Daniel watches the little girl color in her book with a small smile on his face as he crossed his arms over his chest.
More footsteps are heard and the camera pans over to a woman that stands next to Daniel.
The happiness and relief most people felt at seeing Daniel was now replaced with curiosity and confusion at seeing this unknown woman.
Although, some of the guys had to admit that the lady was beautiful.
Gertrude, realizing everyone wanted answers, extended her arm out towards the screen.
"Everyone, I'd like for you to meet Hayley Marshall. She's the one that found Daniel at Stingray's apartment and took care of him. She's also his best friend" Gertrude explained.
Everyone, with the exception of Silver and the Cobra Kai students, smiled at that.
Sam and Anthony were relieved that Hayley had been there to help their dad since they weren't.
They were happy that their dad had someone like Hayley in his corner.
Johnny, on the other hand, had a small frown on his face.
He would never admit this out loud but he thought that after he and Larusso put their differences aside he earned the best friend title.
Looks like he was wrong now that the witch lady told him that this Hayley woman is his best friend.
Amanda was frankly relieved that Hayley had been there for Daniel that day.
She was relieved that this woman had helped her husband and took care of him.
"What about the little girl?" Robby asked, raising his hand slightly.
"That's Hope. She's Hayley's daughter" Gertrude told him.
Robby hummed and nodded as did everyone else.
Once everyone quieted down the episode resumed.
All of a sudden a vehicle is heard from outside causing the three of them to perk up.
"Is that her?" Hope asked, clearly excited.
"Let us check" Hayley told her daughter.
"Stay inside, sweetie" Daniel sternly said.
Hope nodded and went back to coloring while Hayley and Daniel left her room and made their way downstairs.
When they head downstairs Daniel opens the front door and lets Hayley get out first.
"Always a gentleman" Amanda smiled softly.
Her husband was always a gentleman to her before and after they got together.
The smile on her faces changes to a frown and a sigh escapes her lips.
This makes her miss him even more and seeing him onscreen doesn't help when all she wants is to see him in real life.
Daniel steps out of the house, closing the door behind him, just as he and Hayley see a truck pulling up.
The truck comes to a stop and the door to the driver seat opens up.
The camera pans to an old woman, Mary, getting out of the truck and closes the door.
When her eyes lock onto Hayley and Daniel a smile appears on her face.
"Well, now, aren't you two a sight?" Mary asked.
"You're sure no one followed you?" Hayley asked.
"I've been avoiding trouble since well before either of you were born" Mary said.
Daniel chuckled at that causing Mary to smile at him before pulling him into a hug. Daniel smiled and hugged her back.
Everyone raised an eyebrow at Hayley's words, looking at the screen curiously.
Why was Hayley asking that Mary woman if she was followed or not?
Why does it sound like she's hiding from someone and doesn't want to be found?
More questions were in all of their heads and they knew that they were going to be left unanswered.
Daniel and Mary pulled away from the hug as Mary patted his cheek before looking at Hayley.
"Now, where's that little girl?" Mary asked.
She tries to make her way to the house to get inside but Hayley is quick to stop her.
"Did you find it?" Hayley asked.
Mary sighed causing Hayley to give her a pointed look.
"Mary, please. After all this time, I am this close to getting them back. I found a cure for Freya's poison and with Danny's helped we got a witch to siphon Rebekah's hex" Hayley explained.
Everyone either did a doubletake on her words while some blinked as they tried to comprehend what was said.
"I'm sorry, but what the hell is she talking about?" Miguel asked, confused.
"Yeah, what the hell has this woman been doing?" Mike asked.
All eyes turned to Gertrude, waiting and expecting answers.
Gertrude, of course, ignored them causing everyone to glare at her in annoyance.
But they knew it wouldn't do anything so they just turned their attention back to the screen.
"So you're really gonna do it? Cure 'em and then wake 'em up? Did you ever stop to think Hope might be better off without 'em?" Mary asked.
Daniel frowned while Hayley sighed in annoyance.
"I made a promise" Hayley told her.
"To who? To Elijah?" Mary asked, raising an eyebrow at her.
"To my daughter. I promised her a home where she would feel safe and protected by the people that love her" Hayley explained.
Daniel nodded and placed a hand on his best friends shoulder.
"And I made a promise to Hayley and Hope. I promised to be there for them since day one. I promised that I would help my best friend on this quest and I intend to keep that promise. After all, it's the least I can do after Hales saved my life back in Los Angeles" Daniel added.
Hayley turned to her best friend with a small smile causing him to return the gesture.
A few people couldn't stop themselves from smiling at the two best friends.
They could tell how much Daniel cared for Hayley and it's clear he's grateful for all that she has done for him since day one.
Hayley sighed before turning back to Mary.
"Mary, she's a Mikaelson, too. She's inherited all of their enemies and a power that Danny and I don't understand. She needs someone to teach her to control it. Danny and I can't do this on our own" Hayley said.
Mary glanced between the two of them and sighed.
"You told me to wake the Mikaelsons you needed to find all seven werewolf packs. You found five and with Daniel's help you found the sixth one. The last one, the Malraux, I thought they'd been killed off" Mary said.
"Wait, hold up, did she just say werewolves? And Hope having powers?" Bert asked.
"Please tell me we're not the only ones that heard that?" Nate asked.
Everyone glanced at each other and realized that they all heard the same thing.
None of them misheard anything.
"Alright, what the hell is going on?" Carmen asked, getting fed up.
Again, all eyes turned to Gertrude and she restrained herself from inflicting pain on everyone.
"Oh my god, please just watch. I promise I will explain everything later" Gertrude groaned.
Everyone either huffed or scoffed but did as told since they didn't have much of a choice.
Not when it's clear Gertrude won't tell them anything and she's the one that's basically in control.
She dug her hand into her pocket and took out a piece of paper and showed it to Hayley and Daniel.
"According to this, there might be one left" Mary told them.
Hayley tried grabbing it but Mary stopped her.
"Hayley, you looked for five years. You found nothing even after Daniel joined you and started helping you. Suddenly, I get word of a lead. What if someone else found it, too? What if it's a trap?" Mary asked.
Hayley and Daniel glanced at each other before looking at Mary.
"If it is, we'll be ready. No matter what" Daniel told her.
Hayley nodded before taking the paper from Mary.
Mary sighed but nodded and the three of them started heading to the house to get inside.
Everyone glanced at each other, confusion and worry plastered on their faces.
What did that Mary woman mean by walking into a trap?
Why did she make it sound like that whatever Hayley and Daniel are doing is dangerous?
And why did Daniel sound like he was ready to fight in this potential dangerous situation?
Questions were running through their heads, tons of them, but there weren't any answers for them.
The scene changes to the next day and the camera pans over to Hayley and Daniel who are closing up the back of a large truck.
They turn around and walk over to Mary and Hope.
"Do you guys have to go?" Hope asked, upset that her mom and uncle are leaving.
"We do. But we'll be back very very soon" Daniel told her.
"And we won't be alone" Hayley added, smiling.
Hope smiled at that, knowing fully well what her mother meant.
Hayley walked towards her daughter and embraced her in a hug which Hope eagerly returned.
The mother and daughter duo pulled away from their hug as Daniel walked over to them.
"Your mother and I will call you every night before bed, ok" Daniel smiled.
"In the meantime, you listen to Mary. Deal?" Hayley asked.
Hayley brings her two fingers to her lips and kiss the tips of it and before holding them out to Hope.
Hope repeats what her mother did and they press their fingers together.
"Deal" Hope nodded with a smile.
The mother and daughter duo smile at each other and embrace each other in another hug.
Everyone couldn't stop themselves from smiling at Hayley and Hope.
They had to admit that their mother and daughter relationship was very cute.
Amanda remembers having that kind of relationship with Sam when she was a little girl and they still had it as she grew older.
But now their relationship has been strained after Daniel disappeared and with Sam blaming her.
And it breaks her heart.
When they pull away from their hug Hope turns to Daniel and embraces him in a hug.
Daniel laughs before hugging her back, leaning down to kiss her head.
They pull away from their hug as Daniel curls his hand into a fist and raises it.
"Remember, be brave and stay tough" Daniel smiled.
"Always" Hope giggled, curling her hand into a fist and raising it.
The two of them fist bump before embracing each other in another hug.
Everyone smiled at the interaction between Daniel and Hope.
Everyone, the ones that knew Daniel, knew just how good he is with kids and how much he adores them.
It's obvious that he would end up forming an amazing relationship with Hope.
Sam, on the other hand, had a small frown on her face as she shifted in her seat.
She remembers how her and her dad had that kind of relationship when she was a little girl.
Even as she grew older they still had that kind of relationship, she always considered herself a daddy's girl.
But, now, seeing her dad interact with the daughter of his best friend made her a little jealous.
They pull away from their hug as Hayley and Daniel turn around and walk to the truck.
Mary walks with them and starts giving them some advice.
"Keep your guard up. Stay moving. If either of you smell trouble, you run" Mary told them.
They stopped next to the truck just as Mary knocked on the truck a few times.
"Those folks back there, they had plenty of life. What you, Hayley, need to do is stay alive for your little girl. Daniel, the same goes for you" Mary added.
Hayley and Daniel stop walking and turn around to face Mary.
"Everything I do is for her" Hayley sternly said.
"One way or another, we're coming back for Hope and we're coming back with the rest of her family. Nobody is going to stop us" Daniel added.
With that the two of them get into the truck with Mary and Hope watching them.
"What the hell is Daniel and his friend planning?" Mike asked, confused.
"I don't know but something tells me we're going to find out" Johnny shrugged.
The scene changes to a bar and the camera pans inside.
We see Hayley and Daniel sitting together as they watched a group of women talking, laughing and having drinks.
A woman from the group with curly black hair gets up and walks over to the bar to get more drinks.
Hayley and Daniel glance at each other before getting up and walk over to the woman.
Amanda frowned, confused as to why it looked like her husband and his best friend were stalking that woman.
More importantly, why did they leave their home in the woods to go to a bar?
What exactly where those two doing?
When they reach the bar they stand next to the woman.
"You look like you're having fun" Daniel commented.
"What's the occasion?" Hayley asked.
"I just finished my residency, which makes me an official ER doctor" the woman told them.
"Congratulations" Hayley and Daniel said in unison.
"Thanks" the woman smiled.
"Does it help with the guilt, given what you are?" Hayley asked.
"What did you say?" the woman asked, confused.
"Keelin, you need to listen to us" Daniel told her.
"How do you know my name?" the woman, Keelin, asked in shock.
"We got it from a friend. She said your grandma's maiden name was Malraux" Hayley told her.
Keelin scoffed and goes to leave but Hayley and Daniel stop her by grabbing her arms, pulling her back.
"You both better back off. Right now" Keelin warned, her eyes flashing yellow.
"I wish we could" Hayley told her, her eyes flashing too.
Daniel nods and lifts up his shirt to reveal a dagger he had tucked in his jeans.
Everyone's eyes widened at seeing the way Keelin and Hayley's eyes flash in some sort of gold color.
Not only that but they were shocked to see that Daniel, of all people, carried a weapon with him.
"Why did their eyes flash that way?!" Miyagi-Do and Cobra Kai students asked.
"Why the hell does Daniel/Larusso have a dagger with him?!" Amanda and Johnny asked.
Instantly, all eyes turned to Gertrude and demanded for some answers.
Unfortunately, Gertrude just blankly stared at them and told them to continue watching.
Everyone glared at her with a few scowling but knew that they weren't going to get anything out of her.
Reluctantly, they did as told.
However, Demetri began recalling a few books he read in the library based on supernatural beings.
As the information from those books began to resurface he started getting a little worried yet intrigued.
He had some theories but he couldn't be certain that he was correct until he saw more.
"We need a favor. Five minutes. Outside. We can explain" Hayley said.
"We're only asking for five minutes and we'll leave you alone" Daniel added.
Keelin's eyes go back to normal and she looks around before letting out a sigh and nods her head.
Hayley and Daniel nod and with that the three of them walk to the back door to leave so they can talk.
As they walk outside Keelin takes the opportunity to elbow both of them in their face, causing them to stumble, and takes off.
She runs while jumping over a few things and jumps over a fence.
A few people were impressed by how fast Keelin was and seemed to have some good skills.
Johnny had to admit he was impressed and maybe a little jealous considering he can't do much given his old age.
Yet, this woman who is probably around the same age as him can do all of that with ease.
As she lands on the ground she turns around to leave but stops when she sees Hayley and Daniel standing across from her.
"Do not do that again" Hayley told her.
"I'm not going without a fight" Keelin said.
"Would you relax? We're not here to fight you. We need you" Daniel told her.
"You're the last of your pack. That makes you special for reasons that are too complicated to explain" Hayley added.
"I don't care about your problems" Keelin scowled.
"You should. Because there are others who know how important you are. And they will come for you" Hayley said.
"Look, I have a life, a career, relationships. Someone tries to take that, they're gonna have to kill me" Keelin said.
Daniel sighed, annoyed, and opens his mouth to say something but stops when he notices the expression on Hayley's face.
"Hales, what's wrong?" Daniel asked, worried.
Hayley glanced at Keelin before looking at Daniel, leaning closer to place her lips to his ear.
"There's people inside. They're looking for her" Hayley whispered.
Everyone either frowned or narrowed their eyes at the screen.
"Ok, is this woman being targeted or something?" Robby asked.
"Yeah. Is she running away from kidnappers or something?" Miguel asked.
Gertrude snorted in slight amusement.
If only something as simple, yet still dangerous, as kidnapping could explain all of this.
Daniel frowned at that and looked at Keelin to see her looking at them with confusion.
Daniel looks back at his best friend just in time to see her nodding at him.
Daniel sighed but nodded back and looked at Keelin.
"I'm sorry. We don't have time for this" Daniel told her.
Before Keelin can react Daniel spins around and lifts his foot and strikes her in the face.
Keelin yells as she makes contact with the wall and the strong impact knocks her out.
Everyone jumped at the unexpected action from Daniel and their eyes widened in shock.
Hell, Silver himself looked shocked at seeing Daniel knock out that woman.
"Why the hell did he do that?!" Amanda yelled, her eyes wide in shock.
Why the hell did Daniel just knock Keelin?
Why the hell did Daniel and Hayley need Keelin in the first place?
What problems did Daniel and Hayley have that they need Keelin?
Keelin starts falling but before she hits the ground Hayley catches her.
"Nice one" Hayley grinned.
"Thanks. I didn't want to use violence but she was being difficult so it was necessary. Now, lets get out of here" Daniel said.
Hayley nodded and quickly throws Keelin over her shoulder.
She grabs Daniel by the arm and speeds them away from the place.
Nothing but loud screams were heard from everyone in the theater.
Hell, Silver and Kim Da-Eun screamed too.
Everyone was currently staring at the screen with wide eyes as they tried to comprehend what had just happened.
Hayley literally sped away while carrying an unconscious Keelin and holding Daniel's arm.
She didn't run like any normal person would've.
She literally sped away.
It was almost as fast and unnoticeable as lightning.
"What the hell was that?!" Mitch yelled.
"I agree with penis breath! What the fuck was that?!" Johnny yelled.
Carmen was clinging onto him like he was her lifeline while Rosa was staring at the screen with wide eyes and her jaw touching the ground.
Johnny was trying his best to calm his girlfriend down but it was a little hard.
Especially when he too was freaking out and wondering what the hell he just saw.
More and more questions were being thrown but no answers were being given.
When they realized that their questions weren't being answered everyone immediately quieted down.
Instantly, all eyes turned to Gertrude who was leaning against the wall with her arms crossed over her chest.
Upon feeling all eyes on her Gertrude let out a sigh before turning to everyone.
"I want everyone to listen to me closely. And I want you all to know that everything I say is true" Gertrude sternly said.
She took a deep breath before continuing.
"As you all know, I'm a witch. However, you must know that there are tons more witches out there. In fact, there are more supernatural beings out in the world. Witches, werewolves, vampires and hybrids" Gertrude explained.
Silence.
Silence filled the theater room.
Nobody spoke nor moved.
Everyone just stared at Gertrude, trying to comprehend all that was said to them.
They barely believed Gertrude when she told them she was a witch.
They only believed her fully after she showed them proof.
But they didn't want to believe that werewolves, vampires and hybrids exist.
"Wait, when Keelin and Hayley were flashing their eyes in that golden color were those vampire or werewolf eyes?" Demetri asked.
Everyone looked at him either weirdly or with disbelief.
Was he actually believing this?
If someone were to actually ask him this out loud, Demetri would say yes.
Because he knew that his theory was correct just based on those books he used to read and seeing those flashing eyes from Keelin and Hayley.
He just needed more proof and after seeing Hayley speed off like that.
It all just added up.
Especially with everything else that was being talked about.
"Yes, that's correct" Gertrude nodded.
"Unbelievable" Demetri breathed out.
He leaned back against his seat as he tried his best to process everything.
And he wasn't the only one.
Everyone else in theater too tried to process what had just been said.
"Wait, so that means that Keelin and Hayley are..." Mike trailed off.
"Yes. They are werewolves. Well, Keelin is" Gertrude said.
"What does that mean?" Chozen asked, confused.
"It means that Keelin is only a werewolf. Hayley, on the other hand, isn't. She's a hybrid" Gertrude said.
"And what's a hybrid?" Johnny asked, furrowing his eyebrows together.
"A hybrid is a werewolf and a vampire" Gertrude revealed.
Once again, silence filled the room.
Everyone was staring at Gertrude clearly speechless.
Hell, Silver and Kim Da-Eun were speechless too.
Amanda was feeling various emotions at the moment as she processed everything that had just been said to her and everyone else.
It's bad enough that she and everyone else have to deal with this stupid karate war thanks to Cobra Kai and Terry Silver.
But now, apparently, the supernatural exists and are out roaming around the world.
But what hits her the most is the fact that Daniel, her husband, is friends with a supernatural being.
And he's apparently on a mission with this supernatural being to do god knows what.
Holy mother of...
Gertrude stared at everyone and rolled her eyes before resuming the episode.
The scene changes to an old warehouse and the camera pans inside.
We see Keelin, who's currently restrained to a chair, waking up after being unconscious for a few hours and let out a groan.
"Relax. We're not your enemy" Daniel calmly said.
"If we left you where you were, you'd be dead already" Hayley added.
"Let me guess, we're on the run from vampires? You have the same stink they do" Keelin asked, a disgusted look appearing on her face.
"I'm special. I'm a hybrid. Half-vampire, half-werewolf" Hayley told her.
"And, apparently, Larusso is friends with you" Johnny muttered.
He really didn't know what to think of the woman now that he's aware of what she is.
And he's not sure how to feel about Daniel being best friends with her.
Amanda, having heard him, slowly nodded her head.
Because she too doesn't know how to feel about her husband being friends with someone like Hayley.
Not after everything she just learned.
"What about your friend?" Keelin asked, gesturing to Daniel.
"I'm human but don't mistake me as weak. Because I can fight, I assure you of that. And thanks to Hayley, I can fight with weapons. I don't use them all the time but I do keep them on me just in case" Daniel explained.
"And considering that we saved your ass, you should show us some respect" Hayley said.
"How do I know you weren't the ones that led them to me?" Keelin asked.
"Does it matter? They know who you are and they want you dead" Hayley said.
"The only way to survive is to do exactly what we tell you" Daniel added.
"It's not like I have a choice" Keelin scoffed.
"Ok, by what do they need her for that they had to strap her to a chair?" Sam asked, confused.
What exactly was her dad and his best friend planning that involved kidnapping and restraining someone?
What exactly do they need her for?
Hayley takes out a mask and when Keelin notices it she tenses and leans back in her chair.
"Hey, look, I don't know what kind of pervy stuff you're into, but I am not that kind of girl" Keelin said.
"This is a device to extract your venom" Hayley told her.
"And before you ask, yes, it will hurt" Daniel bluntly added.
"Why are you doing this to me?" Keelin asked, tugging at her restraints.
Hayley hands the mask to Daniel and makes her way over to a table where we see a white sheet covering something.
Once the sheet is removed we see that it had been covering some coffins.
Hayley opens one of the coffins and the camera pans inside where we see a beautiful blonde woman peacefully asleep.
Everyone's eyes widened at what they were seeing.
"Uh...who is that?" Robby asked, a little confused and concerned.
Why the hell did Mr. Larusso's best friend have a coffin with a literal woman inside of it?
"The woman inside the coffin is Freya Mikaelson. She's a witch" Gertrude explained.
"So like you then?" Robby asked.
"Yes but she's more powerful" Gertrude said.
Robby's eyes widened at that and he wanted to ask more questions but Gertrude looked away from him.
The Keene boy sighed before turning his attention back to the screen.
"I'm trying to save my family" Hayley said, not taking her eyes off Freya.
Daniel sets the mask down and walks over to his best friend and places a hand on her shoulder.
Daniel lets out a sigh before turning to Keelin.
"Keelin, the people in there are dying. The only thing keeping them alive is a sleep spell, and the only one that can cure them is her" Daniel explained.
He points to Freya and Hayley nods as she turns to look at Keelin.
"She's a witch, and she left me instructions on how to wake her up early. The only thing I'm missing is your venom. Once she gets on her feet, I can give her the ingredients I got. And, with any luck, no one has to die" Hayley added.
"So if I give you what you want, will you let me go?" Keelin asked.
"Yes" Daniel nodded.
"You have my word" Hayley nodded.
Everyone couldn't help but notice the sincerity in her words.
While they aren't sure if they can trust her they do trust and believe Daniel.
Mainly the ones that are closest to him because they know that he's someone that keeps his word.
Some time has passed and once Hayley and Daniel had enough of Keelin's venom they used it to fill a vial.
"You got my venom. When do I get to go?" Keelin asked.
"As soon as we know it works" Daniel told her.
"And when will that be?" Keelin asked.
Hayley bent down and grabbed a bag and stood up, setting it down on the table as she began rummaging through it.
"Believe me, you'll know when you see it" Hayley said.
Keelin looked over at Freya's coffin and tilted her head as she scanned her up and down.
"You have to wake up sleeping beauty, right? How do you do that?" Keelin asked, curious.
"You know, you ask a lot of questions" Daniel chuckled.
"Reminds me of you when we met" Hayley smiled.
"Not my fault you perked my curiosity and I wanted to learn more about you" Daniel shrugged.
Hayley laughed and nudged his arm causing him to laugh as he returned the gesture.
A few people couldn't help but smile at the interaction between Hayley and Daniel.
Sam and Anthony were happy that despite the fact that their dad is friends with a hybrid and is on a possibly dangerous mission he looked happy.
And that's really all that mattered to them.
Even though they really wish their dad was with them.
Hayley took out a syringe that held the antidote that would help them wake up Freya.
Hayley walks over to Freya's coffin and stares down at her. She glances at Daniel and he nods at her causing her to nod back.
Hayley looks back at Freya and takes a deep breaths before stabbing her in the chest with the syringe while pressing down on the plunger.
All of a sudden Freya's eyes snap open and with a gasp she sits up from her coffin.
Everyone either jumped or screamed by what they saw.
Hell, Silver and Kim Da-Eun were startled by what they saw.
"Jesus!" Kenny yelled, his eyes wide.
"That scared the crap out of me" Kyler breathed out, a hand on his chest.
"Pussies" Miguel muttered with a small grin.
Demetri and Hawk heard and couldn't help but snort in amusement while nodding their heads in agreement.
Robby too heard and merely chuckled before clearing his throat.
Daniel's eyes widen with relief while Keelin's eyes widen with shock.
"Freya!" Hayley yelled, pulling the witch into a tight hug.
Freya didn't hesitate to hug her back and as the two of them pull away Daniel walks over to them.
"Are you ok?" Daniel asked.
Freya looked at him and her eyebrows furrow together in confusion.
"Forgive me if I sound rude but who are you?" Freya asked.
"The name is Daniel" Daniel greeted with an awkward smile.
"Don't worry, Freya. Danny is trustworthy. He did help me after all" Hayley told her.
Freya nodded, a faint smile on her face, before her expression turned serious.
"Did you get the ingredients?" Freya asked.
Hayley and Daniel nod and gesture over to the table where the ingredients are.
"Good, I need to begin. If I can't turn all that into a cure, Elijah and Kol are going to die" Freya said.
Hayley looks worried at that while Daniel helps Freya out of her coffin and watches as she rushes over to the table.
"Uh, witch lady, who are Elijah and Kol?" Tory asked, curious.
"Elijah and Kol are Freya's brothers" Gertrude told her.
"So, they are witches too?" Robby asked.
"No. They're vampires. Original vampires" Gertrude told him.
"What do you mean by original vampires?" Hawk asked, raising an eyebrow at her.
"It means that they, along with their other siblings, are the first generation of vampires. They were turned many years ago" Gertrude explained.
This made everyone's eyes widen and their jaws dropped to the ground.
Hell, Silver and Kim Da-Eun looked speechless themselves.
"Are you fucking serious?" Johnny asked, trying to process that information.
"Dead serious" Gertrude nodded.
"Holy shit" Johnny breathed out.
"Wait, did you say other siblings?" Mike asked.
"Yes. The Mikelson siblings consist of Freya, Elijah, Klaus, Rebekah and Kol. As you know, Freya is a witch. While Elijah, Rebekah and Kol are original vampires. Klaus, on the other hand, is the original hybrid" Gertrude explained.
Everyone remained silent as they took in the information that was given to them by Gertrude.
If they were shocked before they were definitely speechless right now.
Silver, on the other hand, was intrigued.
He never thought that supernatural beings exist until he and everyone else were brought here.
It all felt unreal.
And he was intrigued and wanted to know more and more about these supernatural beings.
And maybe, just maybe, get his hands on one of them and take advantage of their whatever power they have.
It could definitely benefit him in so many ways.
Amanda buried her face into her hands and groaned loudly.
Just what the hell was Daniel thinking when he got involved in this nonsense?
Freya grabbed everything she needed and moved to an empty spot on the floor and began to draw out a circle in salt, placing the seven different venom's around next to lit candles.
"How much longer do we have?" Hayley asked.
"Maybe an hour. Assuming they live that long" Freya told her.
"Do you have everything we need?" Daniel asked.
"Venom from the seven packs, along with Klaus's blood. Infused by my magic and magnified by the dark objects. It's going to take all of my strength and more than a little luck, but it should be enough to fashion a cure to save my brothers" Freya explained.
"Should? What do you mean should?" Hayley asked, narrowing her eyes at the witch.
Freya opens her mouth to say something when Hayley furrowed her eyebrows together and turns her head to the side.
Daniel watches as his best friend, with her enhanced hearing, hears something approaching.
"We got company" Hayley said.
Everyone's eyes widened at that and could feel some worry growing in them.
They had a feeling that they had been followed, possibly if there were people tracking Keelin, and they were found by those people.
They knew that Daniel can take care of himself and, from the looks of it, Hayley can too.
But what happens if there are too many people for them to take on?
What happens if Hayley and Daniel get overpowered?
"Hayley, Daniel, let me go, please. If it's vampires, they're gonna kill me" Keelin begged.
"They must have been tracking her" Freya said, glancing at Keelin.
She then looks at Hayley and Daniel with desperation in her eyes.
"Hayley, Daniel, I need more time" Freya told them.
Hayley pressed her lips together and nods before looking at Daniel who looks at her.
"Get your dagger out and get ready" Hayley ordered.
Daniel immediately takes out his dagger and lets Hayley grab his arm and speeds them out to the front of the warehouse.
When they got there they saw three black SUV's parked in front of them.
They hear footsteps and turn around to see a large group of vampires, some with weapons in their hands, walking towards them.
Everyone's eyes widened at the large group of vampires that came into view.
And it's the fact that some of them are wielding weapons and look ready to kill.
"Holy shit" Hawk breathed out.
"This isn't bad. Not bad at all" Demetri sarcastically said.
He yelped in surprise when he was hit upside the head by Miguel and Robby.
He looked at them and winced when he saw the glare that they were both giving him.
They gestured over to Sam and Anthony and he saw how pale their faces were and how wide their eyes were in fear.
Oh.
Right.
He forgot that it's Mr. Larusso, Sam and Anthony's dad, that's in the same place as those vampires.
"Sorry" Demetri muttered, fiddling with the hem of his shirt.
Miguel glared at him while Robby shook his head.
Amanda tensed and clutched her chest.
Nothing but fear was building up inside of her at seeing those vampires.
And her husband was in the same room as those blood sucking monsters.
She knows that Daniel can fight, she knows that he can take care of himself, but fighting vampires is different than fighting regular people.
There's a chance that Daniel will get hurt or, worse, killed.
Chozen, despite the fear he was feeling, placed a comforting hand on Amanda's shoulder and tried to calm her down.
Mike's full attention was on the screen and bounced his knee up and down anxiously.
"Larusso" Johnny muttered, his jaw clenching.
He knew that Daniel can take care of himself and can definitely take on more than one person.
Hell, he took down those stupid hockey players because they were talking about Amanda inappropriately.
But this is different.
Those were vampires.
And vampires have powers, or abilities, and they are definitely stronger.
Johnny would never admit this out loud but he's dead scared that Larusso is going to get killed.
Silver raised an eyebrow at what he was seeing and couldn't stop the small grin from appearing on his face.
He would definitely like to see Danny boy and his little friend take on those vampires.
He knows that they might put up a good fight for a while but they don't stand a chance.
It's two against twenty or more by the looks of it.
They all stopped walking as a man, who looks like the leader, steps to the front.
"Took a long time, but we finally caught you" the man said, his eyes on Hayley.
"Or maybe we stopped running" Hayley said, gesturing to her and Daniel.
With that Hayley sped in front of one of the vampires and grabbed him by the neck and lifts him up.
Daniel heard something and turned around just in time to see a vampire speeding towards him.
Everyone screamed with a few people jumping in fright.
"Dad!" Sam and Anthony yelled, their eyes wide with fear.
"Daniel!" Amanda screeched, her eyes wide with fear.
"Larusso!" Johnny yelled, half standing up from his seat.
Daniel brought his dagger up to the vampire and stabbed him in the chest causing the vampire to cry out in pain.
Daniel pulled his dagger out and kicked the vampire and watched as he fell to the ground.
Another vampire sped towards him and Daniel quickly moved out of the way, making the vampire speed past him, and got into a fighting stance.
The vampire snarled at him and sped towards him, again, but Daniel used his dagger to slice him in the face causing the vampire to scream in pain as he stumbled back.
Daniel put his dagger back where it was and looked around. He spotted a metal pipe on the ground and quickly grabbed it. He ran at the vampire and struck him in the head with the metal pipe.
The vampire fell to the ground with a loud thud, unconscious and bloody.
The worry and fear everyone felt was now replaced with shock and relief.
Not only that but there were a few people cheering at seeing Daniel fighting off those vampires easily.
"Holy shit" Mike breathed out, his eyes wide.
"What he said" Chozen nodded, agreeing with Mike.
Johnny kept quiet, merely nodding his head, as he kept his attention on the screen.
Amanda felt like she was going to have a heart attack and Carmen was doing her best to calm her down.
Sam and Anthony were in the same boat as their mother with Rosa doing her best to calm them down.
Especially when it's clear that their father was going to be fine.
Silver, on the other hand, raised an eyebrow at seeing Danny boy fighting those vampire.
Especially when he made it look so easy.
But what sparked his curiosity was the fact that Danny boy wasn't using Cobra Kai or even Miyagi-Do style to fight.
He was just fighting the way he wanted to.
Not to mention he looked like an expert when using that dagger.
Daniel cringed a little at seeing the blood on the metal pipe and tossed it to the ground.
He got his dagger back out and made his way towards Hayley after she took down three vampires.
The two of them watched as more vampires surrounded them and were ready to fight.
Hayley and Daniel got into a fighting stance and when they glanced at each other they nodded.
Everyone sat at the edge of their seats, anxiety building up inside of them.
They wanted to see how Hayley and Daniel would take down the rest of those vampires.
A vampire sped towards Daniel and he swiftly took his dagger back out and stabbed the vampire in the chest causing them to cry out in pain.
Daniel pulled his dagger out and headbutted the vampire and they fell to the ground. He turned around to see two vampires ready to speed towards him but before they could do so he sprinted towards them and tackled them to the ground.
Daniel sat up and threw many punches at the vampires before using his dagger to stab them in the chest.
Nothing but cheers were heard from the Miyagi-Do students and even from the Cobra Kai students.
They're all aware of how good of a fighter Mr. Larusso is.
They know that he can take care of himself against anyone or anything.
But seeing him, along with that best friend of his, fight off those vampires like it was nothing shocked and impressed them.
"Yeah! That's my dad!" Sam cheered, a grin plastered on her face.
"Awesome!" Anthony cheered, a grin of his own plastered on his face.
He always knew his dad was cool but seeing him fight against vampires, of all things, made him badass.
Chozen and Mike were staring at the screen with wide eyes.
They were shocked and impressed by not only Daniel but by Hayley as well.
Amanda was still in a state of panic, with Carmen and Rosa trying to calm her down, but she too was impressed by her husbands skills.
Even though all she wanted was for him to stop fighting and go somewhere safe.
"That son of a bitch" Johnny muttered, chuckling.
He really shouldn't have underestimated Larusso.
Especially when it's clear that no matter who or what he's up against he's more than capable of taking them down.
Once they were knocked out Daniel stood back up and turned around just in time to see Hayley grabbing the arm of a vampire and sunk her teeth into their arm viciously.
Hayley released the vampire, letting them drop to the ground, and her and Daniel watched as they writhed in pain.
The man from earlier stepped forward as he glanced at the fallen vampires.
"Ooh. Your bite is nasty and your friend is quite the fighter" the man hummed.
"Why thank you" Daniel smiled.
"But you're both outnumbered. Give up now and we'll end this quick" the man suggested.
"Like hell he will, asshole!" Sam yelled.
"Sam!" Amanda yelled.
Sam ignored her mother and kept her eyes on the screen with a glare on her face.
Anthony was in the same position as his sister.
If there's one thing they knew about their dad is that he doesn't give up.
"I have a better idea" Hayley said, her eyes flaring gold.
Hayley dropped to the ground and her bones began to break. The man watched in confusion while Daniel took a few steps back.
Hayley soon transformed into a large grey wolf and lunged forward and tore into the mans throat, his screams filling the air, and ripped it out and that instantly killed him.
Daniel watched with a small smirk on his face.
"Holy shit!" everyone yelled.
"She turned into a wolf! A real wolf!" Kyler yelled.
"No shit, dumbass. The witch lady literally told us what Hayley is" Tory rolled her eyes.
Kyler sent her a glare which Tory glared back at him.
"Hold on a second, did Hayley just kill that man?" Amanda asked with wide eyes.
"Yes" Gertrude nodded.
Amanda's jaw dropped with many others having the same reaction as her.
Hell, Silver and Kim Da-Eun looked surprised by what they saw and heard.
"Why the hell are you saying it like it's normal?!" Mike yelled.
"Because it is" Gertrude shrugged.
Everyone either stared at her with wide eyes or blinked at her.
"Killing is not good. Not the right way" Chozen sternly said.
"I agree. No matter what you should never kill anyone!" Carmen shrieked.
Gertrude scoffed at that and crossed her arms over her chest.
"The life of supernatural is dangerous. Whether you're a witch, a vampire or a werewolf you're going to get yourself in trouble. Especially when you make enemies and they aim to kill you. In the end, there's only two options. Kill or be killed" Gertrude sternly said.
Carmen frowned at that but said nothing since she didn't know what to say.
Nobody in the theater knew what to say.
Everyone glanced at each other and slowly came to the realization that, unfortunately, Gertrude is right.
They know that vampires and any other supernatural beings are dangerous.
They know that they won't hesitate to kill anyone that comes their way.
From what they saw, those vampires that came for Hayley and Daniel were ready to kill them.
And they knew that it was either kill or be killed and, well, they knew what Hayley and Daniel decided.
Or, at least Hayley.
From what they saw it looked like Daniel was just aiming to injure the vampires and knock them unconscious.
He wasn't aiming to kill any of them no matter what their intentions were.
And they were a little comforted knowing that he wouldn't stoop down that to level.
Silver, on the other hand, couldn't help but relate to the 'kill or be killed' situation.
After all, it's what he and many others had to consider during their time in the war.
A bit of time has passed and the camera pans to the vampires that are either lying on the ground, dead and covered in blood, while others were bloodied and unconscious.
The camera pans over to Daniel and we see him leaning against the hood of an SVU as he wiped the sweat that was dripping from his forehead.
He heard noises and turned around to see a vampire struggling to stay standing, trying to escape, and he sighs before walking towards them.
Daniel places his hand on the side of their face and slams them into the car and watches as they get knocked out and lets their body fall to the ground.
Everyone winced at what they saw but said nothing.
Amanda frowned, wondering why her husband didn't just let the vampire leave.
Especially since they were trying to escape when they knew that there was no point in trying to fight him or Hayley.
Daniel turned around just in time to see Hayley transform back into her human self and quickly adverts his eyes when he sees that she's naked.
Hayley looked at the dead and unconscious vampires but she hears noises and turns around to see a few vampires getting up.
Hayley extended her arms out and threw them a challenging expression.
"You want more? Come on!" Hayley yelled.
"We can do this all day!" Daniel yelled.
He took his dagger out and, despite how tired he was, got into a fighting stance.
"Classic Larusso" Johnny chuckled, shaking his head.
Larusso is someone that has always been ready to fight no matter what situation he was in.
Not only that but he wasn't someone that gave up easily.
And that's something Johnny will always respect him for.
Just before the vampire can do anything as some unknown force started taking them down one by one.
Hayley and Daniel watched in confusion as they watched the vampires fall to the ground, all of them now dead.
All of a sudden someone comes up from behind Hayley and Hayley closes her eyes in realization.
The camera pans to the person that's behind Hayley and we see a man in formal clothes.
"Everyone, I'd like for you to meet Elijah Mikaelson. Hayley's lover" Gertrude introduced.
Nothing was said from anyone and they just nodded their heads.
Although, a few people couldn't help but blush at how handsome Elijah looked.
Elijah wraps his jacket around Hayley and Hayley doesn't hesitate to turn around to face him.
She doesn't hesitate to cup the sides of his face and kiss him on the lips, passionately and desperately.
Elijah and Hayley kiss each other for a few minutes before breaking away. They embrace each other in a tight hug.
Daniel watches them with a small smile on his face as he puts his dagger away.
A few people couldn't help but smile at the reunion between Hayley and Elijah.
It's clear, from what they have seen so far, that those two have been separated for five years.
And it's clear that during those long five years they have missed each other more than anything.
Now, Elijah is awake and Hayley has him back.
They have each other back and they are never letting each other go again.
Silver rolled his eyes while Kim Da-Eun looked away.
She always hated seeing affection, especially amongst lovers.
Amanda stared at the reunion between Hayley and Elijah with a look of sadness and longing.
She wanted that with Daniel the day she and the kids returned home.
But she never got it because Daniel had disappeared.
She wants nothing more than to reunite with Daniel, given how much time has passed, and kiss him and hug him while promising to never leave him again.
Something she never should've done.
The scene changes to outside of the warehouse and the camera pans over to Elijah.
We see him standing in front of a fire and we see that he has burned all of the dead bodies of the vampires.
The camera pans over to Hayley, who's wearing clothes she took off from one of the vampires, and Daniel as they walk out of the warehouse and towards Elijah.
Hayley stops and stands next to Elijah while Daniel stands next to Hayley.
"And they say romance is dead" Elijah said.
"I'll take it" Hayley shrugged.
Daniel nodded and Elijah turned to him with a curious look.
"Forgive me, but I don't believe I know you" Elijah said, tilting his head.
Daniel awkwardly smiled before looking at Hayley for help.
Everyone couldn't help but laugh at seeing how awkward Daniel looked.
Amanda giggled softly since she knew her husband could be awkward when it comes to meeting new people.
Which makes her wonder if he felt awkward around Hayley when they met.
Hayley laughed and shook her head as she placed her hand on Daniel's shoulder.
"Elijah, meet Daniel Larusso. He's one of my best friends and he's been helping me on my mission to get the ingredients in order to wake you and the others" Hayley smiled.
"In that case..." Elijah trailed off.
He held out his hand for Daniel to shake.
"Please to meet you, Mr. Larusso. I'm Elijah Mikaelson" Elijah smiled.
Daniel sighed in relief before shaking Elijah's hand.
"Nice to meet you, Elijah. Hayley has told me all about you" Daniel smiled.
"All good things, I hope" Elijah chuckled.
"Definitely" Daniel nodded.
They pulled their hands away just as Hayley grabbed Elijah's arm and he rolled up his sleeve.
"Your infection's gone" Hayley commented.
"You, along with Daniel, saved us. All of us" Elijah said.
"No, all the credit goes to Hayley. She's the one that did everything while I was just her assistant" Daniel shook his head.
Hayley sighed and smacked Daniel by his shoulder.
"Danny, stop that. You're not my assistant. You never have been. You're my best friend and you've helped me more than you'll ever know. And for that I'll always be grateful" Hayley told him.
Daniel's eyes softened at that and he smiled at his best friend.
Hayley smiled back at him and nudged his arm causing him to laugh and return the gesture.
Everyone smiled at the interaction between the two best friends.
Johnny glared slightly as he grumbled under his breath.
He would never admit this out loud but he was a little jealous of the friendship Larusso formed with that hybrid lady.
Especially when he thought that they would have something like that after setting aside their differences.
"I guess Kol and Rebekah couldn't contain their hunger" Elijah said.
"Elijah, after all this time, I..." Hayley trailed off.
Elijah nodded in understanding and said, "me, too".
Hayley smiled at him and Elijah turned around and grabbed her hands.
"Now, please tell me how is my niece?" Elijah asked.
"She's amazing. She's healthy. Happy. She's the perfect little girl" Hayley laughed.
"And she made us promise that one day she'd get her family back. All of them" Daniel added.
"A child after my own heart" Elijah smiled.
"Then there's just one person left" Hayley said with Daniel nodding.
Elijah remained silent and stared forward before looking at Hayley and Daniel with a serious look on his face.
"Let's go get him" Elijah told them.
As the screen turned black, indicating that the first episode was over, everyone remained silent.
Honestly speaking, none of them knew what to say after what they just watched.
Learning that Daniel is alive was mainly what they were looking forward to.
Especially when most of them thought that he was somewhere alone and hurt or, worse, dead.
But they were glad that wasn't the case.
However, they never expected to learn about supernatural beings and the fact that they actually exist.
And they sure as hell never expected Daniel to not only befriend one they never expected him to get involved in that life.
And they sure as hell weren't expecting to see how much Daniel has changed.
And they had only watched the first episode.
There's more to go and they know that they are going to be more intense than what they had just watched.
And they didn't know if they were ready to see what would be happening.
---------------------------------------------------
Hey guys! How are you all doing?
I know it took a while but I finally posted this book.
What do you guys think so far? Are you excited for more?
And are you excited for Klaus x Daniel later on?
Now, let me start off by saying that while Daniel is going to be involved in the supernatural drama, mainly drama that revolves around the Mikaelson's, he isn't going to be killing anyone.
Because despite the new life he's in, he doesn't see himself killing anyone whether they're vampires or whatnot.
Which is why during the fight scene he was knocking those vampires out rather than killing them.
Now, this could change later on or it could remain this way.
I still have no idea.
But, one thing I can say is that Daniel won't be invested in karate anymore and he won't be obsessed with Miyagi-Do styles.
With that being said, see you guys in the next chapter.
Have a good day. Bye!
