HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI

The next day, the thunderstorm was over and everyone resumed their regular daily lives.

The little boys and girls children are back at the schoolhouse.

And the teenage demigods and demigoddess had returned back to the Camp Orasani.

All of the farmers had resumed their harvesting and taking care of the barn animals.

The city streets are occupied with vendors and the vendor markets.

HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI / MEDICAL INFIRMARY

The Six Handmaidens Assistants, Eve
Lisabeth, Iliana, Zana, Mirea and Danai are helping Nurse Giannis to attend to the wounded and injured from the damage caused by the thunderstorm last night.

[Christy Outfit]

Christy is sitting on a medical bed with her denim jacket laying on her lap.

A Handmaiden Assistant, Danai, is gently patching up Christy's left back-side shoulder with small bandaids after taking out the shard piece of glass.

Christy is on the phone with Trinity, reassuring her youngest daughter that she's okay.

"I'm okay, Trinity. I'll be home soon." Christy reassured her on the phone.

"Okay. Just checking on you, Mom." Trinity said. "Love you."

"Love you too, sweetheart." Christy said, and hangs up her phone. She glances at Danai. "You're almost done, Danai?"

"I'm done, Christiana." Danai said, putting a last small band-aid. "You're good."

"Alright." Christy said, and puts back on her denim jacket. "Thanks, Danai."

"You're welcome." Danai said.

And Christy gently leaps off the table. She and Bassea exchange looks at each other.

"Hey, Bassea." Christy greeted her.

"Hi, Christiana." Bassea greeted her back with a small smile.

"I'm gonna head back to New Orleans." Christy said. "You already know what to do in my absence."

"Yeah, I do." Bassea said.

"Okay." Christy said, and teleported herself away in golden dust.

FRENCH QUARTER CAFÉ

Later that day, Christy, Luna and Trinity are sitting at a table with their plates of single cheeseburgers, fries and chocolate vanilla milkshakes.

"Dad was really worried about you, Mom." Luna told her Mom. "He barely slept last night until Trinity and I convinced him."

"Your father has things weighing on his shoulders, but every time, something is handled or dealt with, that weight has been lifted off his shoulders." Christy said.

"I feel like we should do something for him, you know, should him how much we appreciate him, how much we love him." Trinity said.

"Your father knows how much you two love and appreciates him." Christy said to her daughters.

"Yeah." Luna said.

"By the way, how are you, Mom?" Trinity asked.

"I'm fine." Christy reassured her youngest daughter. "I'm okay. Nothing I can't handle."

Christy, Luna and Trinity exchange small smiles at each other and continues eating their food and sips on their milkshakes.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

Later that day, in the study, Christy gently taken off her denim jacket and looks at a handheld mirror.

She looks at her back-side left shoulder, which has three small band-aids and her wound has healed. She gently takes off the small band-aids just as Klaus slowly walks inside.

"What are you up to?" Klaus asked.

"Taking off some bandaids." Christy told him, gently takes off the first band-aid. "Anything on Lucien Castle or Aurora?"

"Aurora has been held up hidden at the Davila Estate for a while now." Klaus told her, sitting on the couch across from her.

"We'll make our move on her while we have our chance. Catch her off-guard." Christy said.

"Interesting plan." Klaus said.

"Aurora has extended her borrowed hours long enough." Christy said, and takes off the last two band-aids.

DAVILA ESTATE

Later that afternoon in the ballroom, Aurora is at the bar counter with her pistol, containing the wooden bullets with the poisonous thorns at the tip.

"Hello, Aurora." Klaus said.

Aurora looks at Klaus and tries to fire the wooden bullets at him, but he dodges with his hybrid speed.

"If you're here, then, your beloved Christy, isn't far." Aurora said.

"Actually, I just came to watch you flame out again." Klaus said.

"Oh, really?" Aurora said. "And Marcalos will just resurrect me again and again."

Klaus and Aurora exchange tense looks at each other. And she fires a wooden bullet into his stomach, causing him to fall on the floor.

Aurora slowly walks up to Klaus, still aiming her pistol at him. Klaus lifts up the hem of his shirt, revealing the bullet wound and the red veins slowly starting to spread on his stomach.

"But before I flame out and return back to Marcalos's Underworld Palace, I'm going to watch you die slowly. And as you take your final breath, I will be relieved knowing that I destroyed an Original." Aurora said with a grin.

Klaus looks up at Aurora, and suddenly, Christy grabs her pistol with her glowing golden orasanian beaded bracelet and takes it out of her hand.

Christy takes the pistol in her hand. "Go back to the Underworld, you Redheaded crazy bitch."

Aurora starts to steam as she heats up. She looks at her hands as it glows molton orange.

Christy walks over to Klaus and kneels down and digs out the wooden bullet from Klaus's stomach.

"Thanks." Klaus thanked her.

"You're welcome." Christy said.

Klaus and Christy looks at Aurora as she yelps out in pain as she flames out and is engulfed in a ball of flame and vanishes.

Klaus and Christy exchange looks at each other.

"We need to get you home now, so, you can get the antidote to stop the poisoning from spreading any further." Christy said to her husband.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

That evening, in the study, in front of a fireplace, Christy has injected some of the anti-venom serum into Klaus's forearm with her jet injector.

"This is the millionth time you saved my life." Klaus humorously teased.

"It's been noted." Christy said.

"Are we still on our date?" Klaus asked.

"Yeah, sure." Christy told him.

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

Christy gently dumps the 13 wooden bullets from the pistol in her hand and tosses the bullets into the fireplace.

"You did good with distracting Aurora." Christy complimented.

Klaus looks at Christy and she looks at him.

"And you did well with retrieving the bullets." Klaus complimented.

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

"There's your old buddy, Lucien." Christy said. "His bite is lethal."

"We'll find him and destroy him if he doesn't flame out before then." Klaus said.

"Okay." Christy said.

Klaus and Christy gently holds each other's hands and looks at the fireplace together as the fire itself melts the wooden bullets.
