MIKAELSON
COMPOUND the next day in the courtyard, Christy, Luna and Trinity are checking out a coffee and latte maker at the table.

{Christy's Outfit}

"Your favorite is pumpkin spice latte, isn't it, Mom?" Luna asked with a small smile.

"Yeah." Christy replied.

"Hey, guys." Marcel greeted.

"Hey, Marcel." Christy greeted her best friend. "How are you?"

"I'm fine." Marcel replied. "What are you guys up to?"

"Making lattes." Trinity said.

"What's the scoop, Marcel?" Christy asked.

"My guys spotted Sofya Voronova out and about. The thing is, she had glow blue eyes." Marcel said.

"The Hollow is possessing her." Christy said to him.

"The Hollow? I thought we defeated her?" Marcel said, bewildered.

"We did, but somehow, Aurora aligned herself with her." Christy said. "As of right now, Inadu is a spirit possessing Sofya's body. So, Aurora has her vampire sire-lines finding and collecting the bones to resurrect The Hollow."

"What does The Hollow want?" Marcel asked.

"Don't know." Christy replied. "She must have a new scheme or something."

"Luckily..." Vincent said, wielding the jaw bone of The Hollow. "... I have one of the bones."

⚜️⚜️

In the ballroom, Klaus, Marcel, Christy, Vincent and Freya are looking at the jaw bone of the Hollow, which is in a small salt circle on the table.

"Aurora has nothing to lose, so, of course, she would aligned herself with The Hollow." Klaus said.

"But we don't know who or what The Hollow wants." Marcel said.

"We need to find out before it's too late." Vincent said.

Klaus, Marcel, Christy, Vincent and Freya exchange looks at each other.

Christy looks at the jawbone, which slowly moves itself in a circle. "Guys? The jawbone is slowly moving."

Klaus, Marcel, Christy, Vincent and Freya looks at the jawbone as it slowly moves itself inside the salt circle.

Suddenly, Christy grunts, clutching her head with her hand as she hears Zenith speaks to her telepathically.

"Christiana? I would like to meet at my Laforge House. Come alone." Zenith said to her, telepathically.

"Christy?" Marcel said, putting a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

"Christiana?" Klaus said, putting a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

Christy pants softly to herself as Zenith ceases his telepathic communication.

"Christy? What is it? What's wrong?" Freya asked, worriedly.

Christy looks at everyone. "It's Zenith. He said he wants to meet at his Laforge House alone."

                      shortly afterwards...

Christy walks out of the ballroom and into the courtyard. Klaus walks after her.

"Please, tell me you're not going to Zenith's Laforge House alone?" Klaus said.

"I am. I'm not afraid of Zenith." Christy said, continuing to walk away.

Klaus stopped walking. "Christy?"

Christy stopped walking and turns around to look at her husband. "I'll be fine, Klaus."

Klaus small smiles, reassuringly. And Christy walks away.

LAFORGE HOUSE

That late afternoon, Christy slowly walks into the entrance, closing the double doors behind her.

She looks around at the main room entrance, which has been redecorated with a chandelier.

"Zenith?" Christy said. "Show yourself."

Zenith slowly walks up to the small curved balcony on the second floor railing. "Hi, Christy."

"You're really starting to get on my nerves. What else is there to talk about?" Christy asked him.

"I enjoy your company, Christy." Zenith said to her, walked down the stairs and slowly walks up to her. "I know you don't trust me."

"Really? Small talk? I'm out of here." Christy said, and walks away from him.

"I know you're frightened of your dark-side." Zenith said, causing Christy to stop walking and turns around to look at him. "All you have to do to summon it is to say the incantation."

"I know that already." Christy told him. "But you, Zenith, you can choose to be good or bad."

"Yeah, you're right. I can. Maybe, my exile in my Moor Real changed my personality a little bit." Zenith said to her, sly grins. "But you've been to my Moor Realm, haven't you, Christiana?"

"I'll see you around, Zenith." Christy said, walking away.

And Zenith grins to himself.

MIKAELSON
COMPOUND after returning home, Christy slowly walks into Luna's bedroom.

Luna and Trinity are playing on their PSPs on Luna's bed.

"Hey, Mom." Luna greeted her, taking off her Bluetooth headphones. "What's up?"

"Nothing much, just wanted to see my daughters." Christy said, slowly walks up to them and sits down in between them on the bed. "What are you two up to?"

"Nothing much, playing on our PSPs." Trinity said.

"How did you guys get PSPs?" Christy asked them.

"Dad." Luna and Trinity said in unison.

"Your Dad got you PSPs?" Christy said, surprised. "Gosh. Your Dad really loves you guys."

"Yeah, and we love him too." Trinity said. "You wanna try, Mom?"

"Sure, I'll love to." Christy replied.

Luna and Trinity both smiles. And Luna hands Christy her PSP and shows her how to play a video game.

⚜️⚜️

Afterwards, Christy slowly walks into Klaus's and hers bedroom. Klaus is sitting on the sofa.

"Did you get Luna and Trinity PSPs?" Christy asked her husband with a small smile.

"They talked me into it after some convincing and Trinity gave me the puppy dog look." Klaus said with a small smile.

Christy chuckles softly and sits down beside him on the sofa.

"What did Zenith want?" Klaus asked.

"Nothing much, just small talk." Christy replied. "Zenith's holding back his true power."

"He is?" Klaus said.

Christy nodded. "Yeah, he hadn't revealed his full hand just yet. What about you and the guys? Anything on The Hollow?"

"Since The Hollow is currently possessing your friend, Sofya, she needs a sacrifice. And so, with her alliance with Aurora..." Klaus trailed off.

"... The Hollow is gonna sacrifice Aurora." Christy finished. "But Aurora isn't gonna willingly let Inadu sacrifice her."

"Like you said, Aurora has nothing to lose, she loathes the Mikaelson's more than ever, and she has her vampire sire-lines doing this for her." Klaus said.

Christy sits sideways on the sofa and gently rests her head on her hand. "Which enemies do we handle first?"

"We handle both together." Klaus said.

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other and gently holds each other's hands.
