MIKAELSON COMPOUND

The next day, in Trinity's room, Trinity is sitting at her canvas easel, painting on her canvas with her paintbrush.

Klaus slowly walks inside and admires his youngest daughter's painting and gently leans sideways on the door frame.

"That's lovely." Klaus complimented with a small smile.

Trinity glanced at her father with a small smile. "Thanks, Dad."

"You and your sister gotten the bookworm from your mother and painting skills from me." Klaus said.

"Yeah, we both did." Trinity said, and turns around in her chair. "Dad? You know, the supernatural adores Mom here in the French Quarter too. Like, the witches, they adore and respect her. And the Crescent Wolves, they adore her too, and Uncle Marcel and his vampire buddies, they adore her as well."

"I know, your mother is a very amazing person." Klaus said. "And she's paying the price for all of my past sins."

"Marcalos wants to hurt Mom?" Trinity asked.

"He does, to hurt me." Klaus told her. "Marcalos wants me to feel the unbearable pain of losing your mother. And we have lost her, and we've almost lost her. But she always returns."

"I know you worry about her when she's not at home. Luna and I do too." Trinity said. "But Mom is strong and she can handle herself."

"She can." Klaus said.

And then, Luna walks up to Trinity's bedroom door. "Hey, Dad. Callahan and Keelin are having a party this evening at the Crescent House. Can Trinity and I go?"

"Of course, you two should have some fun. You guys don't have to be around me sometimes." Klaus said.

Klaus, Luna and Trinity exchange small smiles at each other.

"By the way, Dad . . ." Luna said, slowly walks up to her father and hands him a note-card. ". . . This is for you."

"Who is it from?" Klaus asked, gently takes the note-card from his oldest daughter.

"I don't know, but the anonymous person said the code word is 'sweet love', or something." Luna said, sitting to her Dad on the ottoman.

Klaus reads the note-card which says,
Hello, my sweet love. Meet me at St. James Infirmary.

"Luna? Trinity? I'll be back." Klaus said, getting up and walks away.

ST. JAMES INFIRMARY

Later that day, Klaus slowly walks inside the half empty jazz club where customers are eating at the tables and at the bar.

Klaus slowly walks up to the bar counter and sits down. And then, Aurora sits next to him at the bar counter.

"Hello, Nik." Aurora greeted her ex-boyfriend.

Klaus looks at Aurora with a serious expression on his face. "Don't ever use my oldest daughter as your messenger."

Aurora looks at Klaus and he looks at her with an serious expression on his face.

"Why does Marcalos keep resurrecting you?" Klaus asked. "What does it get out of this?"

"You're not the only immortal soul that Marcalos favors." Aurora said to him.

"Well, obviously, Marcalos resurrected you to cause drama, but I won't be tricked into whatever malicious scheme that the Underworld Elder God has." Klaus said, tearing up the note-card and gets up and starts to walk away.

And Aurora follows him out of the St. James Infirmary and vamp-sped him in an alleyway.

"How you loathe me so much." Aurora said to him.

"I have many reasons to loathe you, Aurora." Klaus said.

"What happened to us?" Aurora asked him. "I was the woman that you love."

"The woman that I love is away on important business. And I don't need you trying to seduce me or whatever it is that Marcalos wants you to do so, it can interfere with my marriage." Klaus told Aurora.

"You really love Christy so much, do you?" Aurora asked.

"Of course. She's my Epic Love. So, stay the bloody hell away from me, you crazy bitch." Klaus told her and walks away.

And Aurora scowls to herself.

That afternoon, Christy walks in the pillar hallway and walks up the steps. She walks slowly inside the parliament building where The Elders are talking to The Loyalists.

{Christy's Outfit}

Christy slowly walks inside the main room. The Loyalists bows at The Elders and walks away.

The Loyalists and Christy exchange small smiles and nods at each other and The Loyalists walks away.

The Elder Gods and Goddess and Christy exchange looks at each other.

"Where's Theseus?" Christy asked.

"He's handling the scrolls." The Elder God, Tithous, said. "And as for you Chief Advisor, you have done well with your duties."

"Thanks. I strive to do my best." Christy said.

Tithous and Christy exchange small smiles at each other and Tithous walks away.

"I'll guess I'll see you guys around." Christy said.

"Alright." The Elder Goddess, Zenova.

And Christy walks away.

LOUNGE ROOM

Christy is sitting at a round table with her laptop, video chatting with Luna and Trinity.

"How's everything at Mount Orasani?" Luna asked on the laptop screen.

"Everything's fine." Christy said. "Where's your father?"

"He's out and about in the French Quarter." Trinity replied and looks up over the screen. "Hey, Dad. Mom is on video chat."

And then, Klaus shows up on the laptop screen. "Hello, Love."

"Hi. I'm gonna be coming back to New Orleans soon." Christy said.

"Okay." Klaus said. "Can't wait for you to return."

"Luna? Trinity? Let me talk to your father about something." Christy said.

"Okay." Luna said.

And Luna and Trinity gets up and walks away.

"Okay. You have sent away our daughters, so, we can talk alone." Klaus said, sitting at the table. "What is it?"

"Are you okay?" Christy asked her husband, concerned.

"I'm fine." Klaus reassured her.

But Christy isn't quite sure. "Klaus? What's wrong, Hon?"

"I saw Aurora earlier today." Klaus told her.

"Let me guess, Marcalos resurrected her again?" Christy said.

"He did. And I'm not the only immortal soul that he favors. One of them is Mikael." Klaus said. "But back to my crazy ex-girlfriend, Aurora, she and I had quite the chat."

"I magically burst Aurora with my magic." Christy said. "What are you gonna do about her?"

"I'm gonna leave her be." Klaus told Christy. "Don't need to get in trouble with my warrior wife." He added with a humorous smirk.

Klaus and Christy exchange chuckles with each other through the video chat.

"Okay, then." Christy said. "Where's Luna and Trinity?"

"Luna? Trinity?" Klaus said.

And then, Luna and Trinity walks up on either side of their father and looks at their mother on the laptop screen.

"When I come back home, we'll make dinner and cake, how's that?" Christy asked.

"That sounds good." Trinity replied. "And can you bring some more of those biscuit rounds?"

"Of course, I'll let Hagarth know." Christy said. "I have to go, but I'll check with you guys whenever I can."

"Okay. Love you Mom." Trinity said.

"Love you guys too." Christy said and looks at Klaus. "Love you, Klaus."

"Love you too, Chris." Klaus said.

And Christy hangs up her video chat.

HAGARTH'S TAVERN

Later that evening, Christy is sitting at the bar counter with her Julep cup of wine.

"Hagarth?" Christy said.

Hagarth looks at Christy. "Hi there, Christiana. You need anything else?"

"Yeah, do you have more of your biscuit rounds?" Christy asked.

" 'Course I do." Hagarth replied. "I'll get 'em for yer." and walks away.

Bassea walks up behind Christy and hugs her from behind. "Hi, Christiana."

"Hi, Bassea." Christy greeted her young adult former apprentice. "You're working your shift?"

"Yeah, I am." Bassea said, sitting next to Christy at the bar counter. "I've gotten some good tips from Hagarth and other customers."

"That's good. I'm really proud of you, B." Christy said.

Christy and Bassea exchange small smiles at each other.

Hagarth walks up to the bar counter with a plastic container of biscuit rounds.

"Thanks, Hagarth." Christy thanked him with a small smile.

"Yer welcome." Hagarth said and walks away.

"The biscuit rounds are really good. They're Vek's and I favorite snacks." Bassea said.

"Yeah, me too." Christy said.

"Okay. I have to get back to work." Bassea said.

"I'm gonna be leaving soon, so, I'll see you whenever I visit Mount Orasani again." Christy said to Bassea.

"Okay." Bassea said and walks away.

"Bassea?" Christy said.

Bassea stopped walking and looks at Christy.

"Meet me in the office at the parliament building after your work shift, okay?" Christy asked.

"Okay." Bassea said.

Bassea slowly walks up to the bar counter with her platter. She turns around and looks at her boyfriend, Vek.

Vek and Bassea exchange small smiles at each other.

"Hi Vek." Bassea greeted him with a small smile.

"Hello, Bassea." Vek greeted her back with a small smile. And glances at the platter. "Are you working?"

"I am." Bassea told him.

"Well, I was hoping that you and I could have lunch together after you have finished your work shift." Vek said.

"Sure." Bassea said.

"You must be Vek." Christy said.

Vek looks at Christy and bows his head at her. "Milady Christiana."

"Nice to meet you, Vek. Bassea mentioned you as her boyfriend." Christy said.

Vek and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

"Bassea has spoken friendly of you. She's grateful and appreciative for what you've done." Vek said.

"I just put her on a new path and she bettered herself." Christy said.

Vek and Bassea exchange looks at each other.

"I told you that she feigns modesty." Bassea said.

Christy, Vek and Bassea exchange small smiles at each other.

"I'll meet you at the parliament building, Bassea." Christy said.

"I'll be there." Bassea said.

Christy and Bassea shares a hug and Christy walks away.

PARLIAMENT BUILDING OFFICE

That night, Christy is looking out of the window, wearing her backpack on her left shoulder.

"Milady Christiana?" Theseus said.

Christy looks at Theseus and Bassea.

"Theseus? Bassea? Thanks for coming." Christy said. "I'm heading back to New Orleans. In my absence, I'm appointing Bassea to be in charge."

Bassea looks surprise. "Are you sure, Christiana?"

"I'm sure, B." Christy said. "I trust you will do good in my absence. All you have to do, is update me whenever I come here for business."

"Yes, Milady." Bassea said.

"Alright, then." Christy said and walks away.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

Later that night, after arriving back in New Orleans in her skiff-ship through a portal, Christy slowly walks inside the courtyard.

She and Klaus exchange looks and small smiles at each other.

"Hi." Christy greeted him.

"Hello." Klaus greeted her back.

"You didn't have to wait up for me." Christy said.

"I wanted to." Klaus said. "It's good to have you home."

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

          Now, upstairs, Klaus and Christy walks up to the threshold of Trinity's bedroom to see Luna and Trinity asleep on the bed with a blanket covering them both.

"Do you want me to wake them up for you?" Klaus asked.

"No, it's okay. Let them sleep. I'll see them in the morning." Christy told.

"Okay." Klaus said and walks away.

Christy looks at her sleeping daughters, Luna and Trinity with a small smile and she walks away.
