"Beth! Beth get up" I groan and open my eyes.

"What do you want Bekah I'm sleeping" I moan covering my face up hoping she will just leave me be, I've gotten used to waking up in the afternoon.

"Me and you are going to find Elijah. Now up we have your husband to retrieve mumsey ." she tore away my duvet.

"Rebekah!" I yell and huff getting out of bed. Changing I tied my hair up into a messy bun and went to Sophie.

"Hello?...Seriously Marcel I had nothing to do with the attack on your guys last night" We made the pots clatter before waiting behind her. She grabbed a knife ready to strike but Bekah stopped her.

"Sophie Deveraux my brother Elijah told me about you. Know who I am?" she asked

"Yeah I know"

"Then you know we need to talk."

"Sophie" I nodded holding my daughter.

"yes Mama" I smiled at my daughter.

"Not you baby."

"So this is your daughter I heard whispers you might have one"

"Yes this is Sophia, Sophie, Sophia."

"Let's go to the cemetery we can talk there. Once we got there Rebekah was invited in and they began to talk.

"So if I had to guess knowing Klaus' history , Elijah has a dagger in his chest. I would ask Beth but being Klaus he's compelled her not to say anything."

"which reminds me, where is my necklace you took from me I would very much like it back"

"Can't do that if you war it then the magic that bind us is null."

"Fine I won't wear it but Elijah gave me it to protect me, I fell vulnerable without it."

"Anyway, the dagger is a magical object you're a witch. Do a locator spell, locate the dagger locate Elijah."

"I can't use magic its punishable by death. Marcel's rules"

"Marcel? What do you think I will do to you if you don't give me what I want?"

"Not much. I've been linked so anything you do to me you do to Hayley and Bethany." I sighed

"Told you they hex us."

"Luckily for you I care about Bethany, Mumsey 2 not so much. Otherwise I'd break your neck right here. So how did Marcel get so bloody powerful anyway. He wasn't like this when I left a 100 years ago."

Marcel has a way to tell whenever there is magic done in the Quarter. The how isn't relevant" I sat down on some steps putting Sophia on my knee

"I tell you what isn't relevant a coven of witches that can't do magic, Here's an idea move away"

"We practice ancestral magic this cemetery is filled with the remains of our witch ancestors. Without access to them we're powerless. If we run we're leaving our legacy behind. Our home our family." Bekah came and sat next to me I loped my arm through hers leaning my head on her shoulder

Well families over rated. I'm back in a city that's given me nothing but heartache. Searching for my best friend baby daddy who so happens to be my brother. Who also believes in another baby one I which don't care about."

"I find that hard to believe"

"As soon as I've returned Elijah to Beth I'm gone unlike my evil brother. Elijah deserves a family. And now he's missing proberly at the hands of Klaus himself and you were foolish enough to believe that Klaus could go against Marcel when everyone knows they have a history." I zoned out, before he was daggered he had told me the story.

"And that is why your plan will fail all you've done is brought together too long lost souls. Without Elijah in between them god knows what they'll do." Rebekah lead us away from Sophie.

"I'm going to take Soph to watch the band okay" Bekah nodded and I took her to the music she smiled as we watched the band. It was later that night when Sophia was asleep on my shoulder we overheard some vampire talking about a werewolf girl and getting her head. I shared a look with Bekah before taking off.

Bekah snapped one neck while I plunged my hand into one's chest and pulled out his heart.

"that is no way to treat a pregnant lady" Beck sighs. I look down at my daughter and she she's still fast asleep.

"Try doing that with a sleeping daughter in your hands" I grinned

"We do hate bad manners" both of us stated as I dropped the heart. Then looked at Hayley.

"Haven't got a tissue have you?" she pulled one out from her back and Bekah wiped most of the blood off. That's when pissed of Klaus arrived.

He took us back home and I washed and changed my daughter before putting her to bed all the while Klaus has a tantrum talking about his plan and everything

"Does anyone have any more questions. Go no because I have one. Hayley what were you doing in the bloody French Quarter, In the first place"

"Answer me" he yelled and Sophia started crying I picked her up and soothed her. Before going to the stairs.

"Do you mind taking you argument somewhere my daughter won't here. You yell one more time and I'll stake you." I growl down before going back upstairs.

"You want to know what i was doing? I was buying poison. So I could put your little baby out of its misery" I gasp a little she wouldn't would she? I heard choking and I went to see what was going on.

"Nik!" he was choking Hayley. Still holding Sophia I sped down and pulled Klaus off. Shoving him against the banister.

"She's pregnant with your child for crying out loud. All of this bluster about not wanting the child but as soon as she decides she tells you she's ready to get rid of it?" i shove him against the banister letting him go.

"Bekah sort them out while I put Soph back down" I did so and came back down.

"It's okay to care. It's okay to want something. That's all Elijah was trying to do, all he wanted for you. All we've ever wanted" Bekah told him.

"He wanted the same happiness for you that he was supposed to experience." Nik looked at us before sitting on the steps. We sat down next to him.

"I gave Elijah to Marcel" I sighed in relief

"What?"

"He was getting nervous. Bad enough one Original return to town but two? His crew was getting antsy. He wanted Elijah gone so I gave him a peace offering" I felt tears rise as I put my head on my legs and began to cry. I wanted my husband back, I wanted my family to be whole again

"You bartered our brother"

"I have a plan, gain Marcel's trust, dismantle is empire, honour Elijah's which that the babies be born. I am executing that plan the only way I know how. If you don't like it there's the door. See if I care." he got up and left i followed him.

"Nik?" he turned round to face me

"What do you want."

"I know what you think your doing is the right thing, but I need you to get Elijah back. He is everything to me and Sophia. I don't think I'll get to the end of this pregnancy without him." he stares at me

"I love you like a brother Nik, but sometimes you make it really hard. You have the best family of all who will fight and protect instead of using them and letting them help you push them away. I've lost my family form Mystic Falls because I stood for what I believed in a wanted, that was the Mikaelson's. Please don't let me lose another" he came over to me as I started crying.

"I promise you Beth, I will reclaim the city and get Elijah back in time for the birth of your child and mine." I nodded and he hugged me.

"Please Nik, I need him"

-------

I felt someone stroking my face, I open my eyes and Nik is sitting next to me.

"Hey" he smiled

"Hi"

"I sorted out Sophia, she's had her breakfast and is in her playroom, breakfast is beside you"

"Thank you" I sat up and grabbed my plate of bacon and pancakes.

"I am sorry you know" i looked up at him "For what I did to Elijah, I was thinking more about me taking back what I lost that the long term effect it had on one of the people I most treasure" he kisses my head.

"Enjoy your breakfast." I continue to eat and drink before going to take my stuff downstairs where Bekah was talking to Nik.

"Now because of you she has Elijah, who know what she could do to him?"

"Who has Elijah, I thought Marcel had Elijah" I ask putting my plate and glass on a nearby table

"A more than powerful witch named Davina I saw her and Elijah's coffin last night"

"Where is she?" Nik asks. Rebekah's face goes blank

"That clever bitch, I don't know"

"What's wrong" I asked

"She wiped my memory of the location. Marcel possesses a weapon bigger and more powerful than an Original and you handed our brother to him!" she yells. "How many times will Elijah forgive you? How long till his hope for your redemption dies"

"I did what I had to do. Marcel took our home" Nick roared back

"And our home is worthless without a family. We are finding Elijah whatever it takes. Are you going to help me?" she asks Nik

"Whatever it takes" he confirms
