Chapter Thirty-One
Later that same night . . .
At the MIKAELSON COMPOUND, Elijah and the others walks inside, but stops upon seeing a distraught teary-eyed Klaus sitting upright against the fountain, cradling his wife's, Christy's, dead body, in his arms.
Zenith, Thalia and Max looks at Christy's dead body and becomes distraught.
Thalia gently covers her mouth as a tear rolls her right cheek.
"Niklaus?" Elijah said, crouched down in front of his brother.
"Marcalos. He killed her." Klaus told his brother with a tear rolls his left cheek. "I used her golden dust teleportation to bring her body here, but I couldn't bring myself to cover her body."
"Nik?" A distraught Kol said with a tear rolls down the side of his nose. "We can cover Christy's body with cloth and put it in the ballroom."
"Niklaus?" Elijah said to his brother.
Klaus and Elijah exchange looks at each other.
⚜️⚜️
In the ballroom, Rebekah has wrapped up Christy's dead body in cloth and put it in a Mikaelson coffin, and away from the children.
{Christy's Outfit}
Especially, from Luna and Trinity.
Rebekah gently closes the doors and walks out of the ballroom and into the courtyard where Klaus, Elijah, Kol, Freya and the others.
"We should get you cleaned up, Niklaus." Elijah said, referring to the blood stains on Klaus' long sleeve shirt.
"I'll be fine." A distraught Klaus said.
And then, a rumble of thunder is in the courtyard. The Elder Goddess, Ismene, is in the courtyard, wearing casual clothes.
"Marcalos is in the French Quarter. I can sense him." Ismene said.
"So can I." Zenith said, knowingly, he's an Elder God.
"Then, let's find him." Klaus said.
"Klaus? You mustn't. Marcalos is an Elder God. He's stronger than you, you are no match for him." Ismene said.
But Klaus isn't in the mood for a conversation. "Enough?! He killed my wife?!" He snapped.
Ismene looks at Klaus, understanding his rage and pain.
"Marcalos killed Christy. Everything I've done in the past, my sins, and everything evil that I've done, she's paying the price for it." Klaus said. "I held her dead body in my arms, and I didn't hear her heart."
"You still going after Marcalos?" Ismene said with a tear rolls down her cheek. "Aren't you?"
Klaus just looks at Ismene without saying anything, but the dead serious expression on his face says it.

FRENCH QUARTER
Klaus, Elijah, Rebekah, and Kol slowly wanders around.
"What's the plan to defeating the Underworld Elder God Marcalos?" Rebekah asked.
"Even though, Marcalos can't die, it's not gonna stop me from hurting him." Klaus said.
"We love Christy too, Nik. And it would hurt her to see you like this." Rebekah said.
Klaus stopped walking and turns around to look at Rebekah. "You talk about Love, how about you, Rebekah? Where's your love with Marcel? Unless, you've given up on that as well."
"Niklaus, enough." Elijah said.
Rebekah looks at Klaus, understanding he's not himself. He just looks at her.
"All of this ruckus." Marcalos said, causing the Mikaelsons to look at him. "Where's Christiana? Oh, wait, she's dead."
Marcalos and Klaus exchange tense looks at each other.
"You can blame yourself, Klaus. If you hadn't been so diabolical evil, Christiana wouldn't have to pay for your past sins. But you just had to be a monster to everyone that you encountered. Sad shame that Christiana has to pay for your sins and her blood is on your hands." Marcalos told Klaus.
Infuriated, Klaus vamp-sped towards Marcalos, pinning the Underworld Elder God to a street lamp and plunges his hand into Marcalos' chest, gripping his heart.
"Nik, stop?!" Rebekah said.
"He killed my wife?!" Klaus exclaimed.
"Christy wouldn't want you to do this." Elijah said. "Think of your daughters."
Klaus glances at Elijah and looks at Marcalos with a scowl expression on his face.
Klaus gently takes his blood-stained hand out of Marcalos's chest.
Marcalos laughs, maliciously, and looks at Klaus. "What's the matter, Klaus? Feeling small without your beloved wife, Christiana? How did it feel to hold her lifeless dead body in your arms? To have her blood on your hands?"
Klaus changes his eyes to golden werewolf eyes with small veins underneath his eyes.
"Your wife is dead because of you, Klaus?!" Marcalos told him.
Marcalos then, looks at Elijah, Rebekah and Kol and uses his dark powers to snap their necks, knocking them out unconscious onto the ground.
Klaus and Marcalos exchange tense looks at each other.
"Now, it's just you and me." Marcalos said to Klaus.
Klaus scowls at Marcalos.

SPIRIT WORLD
Christy slowly wanders around the meadows.
"Anubis?" Christy said.
Anubis then, appears to her with his staff. "Milady Christiana."
"I'm temporarily dead, am I?" Christy said.
"You are, yes." Anubis told her and then, senses Klaus. "Klaus is not emotionally self."
"Can you take me to him, please?" Christy asked me.
"I can." Anubis said.
⚜️⚜️
MIKAELSON COMPOUND
Zenith, Thalia, and Max are sitting at the table, drinking bourbon.
Suddenly, a boom is heard from the ballroom.
Zenith gets up and vamp-sped into the ballroom and sees the Mikaelson coffin empty, the cloth is laying inside of it.
Zenith, Thalia and Max exchange looks at each other.
"Christiana's gone." Zenith told both Thalia and Max.
"She was temporarily dead, and so, Anubis must've resurrected her and took her to Klaus." Thalia said.
⚜️⚜️
FRENCH QUARTER
Klaus and Marcalos engaged in a fight. But Klaus is no match for the Underworld Elder God.
As Marcalos punches Klaus in his face, he is blasted away with a blue energy blast.
Klaus then, spits out some blood and looks around at Elijah, Rebekah and Kol, who are still knocked out unconscious laying on the ground.
Klaus then, looks at his wife, Christy, who eyes are glowing blue.
Christy looks at her husband, Klaus. "Klaus?"
"Christy?" Klaus said, slowly getting up to his feet.
Christy scurries up to Klaus and hugs him. He hugs her back and gently pulls away from the hug.
"I'll explain later." Christy said, and looks at Elijah, Rebekah and Kol as they regain their consciousness.
"Christy?" Kol said.
"Hey, you guys." Christy greeted Elijah, Rebekah, and Kol. "Marcalos is gone."
"I will return you back to the Mikaelson Home." Anubis said.
Anubis then, uses his staff to teleport himself, Klaus, Elijah, Rebekah and Kol away.
⚜️⚜️
MIKAELSON COMPOUND
Anubis, Klaus, Christy, Elijah, Rebekah and Kol walks inside the courtyard.
Zenith, Thalia and Max looks at Christy and she looks at everyone.
"I will take my leave, Christiana." Anubis said to her.
"Thank you, Anubis." Christy thanked him with a small smile.
"You are welcome, Milady Advisor." Anubis said with a bow of his head.
And Christy bows her head at Anubis and he vanishes away.
Christy looks at Klaus, Elijah, Rebekah, Kol, Zenith, Thalia and Max.
"What?" Christy said.
"Can I hug you now?" Rebekah asked.
"Sure." Christy said.
Rebekah walks up to Christy and hugs her. Christy gently hugs her back.
Rebekah and Christy gently pulls away from the hug.
"We're happy to have you back." Rebekah said.
Rebekah and Christy exchange small smiles.
Zenith, Thalia, Max and Christy exchange looks at each other.
"The Warrior Team Four is completed again." Thalia said. "It's good to have you back, Christiana."
"It's good too." Christy said.
Zenith, Thalia, Max and Christy puts their fists in the middle of them and exchange small smiles at each other.
⚜️⚜️
A minute later, Christy is in the kitchen, eating a grilled cheese sandwich.
Klaus slowly walks inside and gently leans sideways on the kitchen door frame, watching her eat.
Christy glances at him and small smiles. "Hey, Hon. I would offer you a grilled cheese sandwich, but you're not into that stuff."
Klaus just looks at her and Christy looks at him as she takes another bite out of grilled cheese sandwich.
"What?" Christy said.
"I just missed you." Klaus said and slowly walks up to her.
"I know." Christy said to him. "It must've devastated you, knowing that Marcalos killed me."
Klaus gently takes her right arm and looks at both her inner forearms to check if Marcalos's M mark.
"I don't have Marcalos's M mark, Klaus. I was with Anubis in the spirit world, temporarily." Christy said.
Klaus gently cups her face with his hand. "You don't deserve to pay for my past sins, Chris."
"You've been redeemed, Klaus." Christy said. "But Marcalos is holding it over your head."
"I held your dead body in my arms. Your blood was on me. And I didn't hear your heartbeat." Klaus said.
"I'm right here. Alive and well. And with you." Christy said.
Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.
"You still look cute, despite your bruises." Klaus said, referring to her bruises on her cheek and upper and bottom lip.
Klaus and Christy exchange chuckles with each other and they share a kiss and he gently leans his forehead on hers.
"I love you." Klaus said.
"I love you too." Christy said.
