MIKAELSON COMPOUND

The next day, after returning home, Christy is gently leaning on the balcony railing, spaced out.

{Christy's Outfit}

A whoosh is behind her.

"I know you're there, Dad." Christy said.

Ames slowly walks up beside her and gently leans on the balcony railing, wearing his casual clothes. "I miss your mother as well, Christy."

"Now, I'm a motherless daughter." Christy said.

"You still have me." Ames said.

Ames and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

"Cyrus would like to see you." Ames said to his daughter.

"Uncle Cyrus." Christy said with a small smile. "You two are best friends."

"And you're like a niece to both Cyrus Ismene." said Ames. "But I just came to check on you."

"I'm fine, Dad. I am, really." Christy reassured her father.

But Ames isn't quite unconvinced, and remains worried, knowing his daughter hasn't mourned since her mother's funeral pyre ceremony.

MOUNT ORASANI

In the dining hall, everyone is sitting at tables, with their plates of foods and drinks, mingling with each other.

Christy is sitting at a table by herself, drinking a cup of orange juice.

A plate of food and fruits, (square biscuits, raspberries and grapes), is gently set on the table in front of her. Christy looks up at the barkeep, Arias.

"Your father said that you should eat something." Arias said to Christy.

"Thanks, Arias." Christy thanked her.

"You're welcome." Arias said, and walks away.

Christy eats a square biscuits as Mathiaos sits down across from her.

"You're finally eating something. I thought you were gonna starve yourself to death." Mathiaos playfully teased her, taking a square biscuit and eats it.

"Screw off, Mathiaos." Christy asked him, a bit annoyed.

"You shouldn't use such foul language, Christiana. Your mother wouldn't want you to." Mathiaos said.

At the mention of her deceased mother, Christy looks at Mathiaos and gently moves her plates of foods and fruits to the side of the table.

"What?" Christy said to Mathiaos with a straight face.

"You shouldn't use such foul language, your mother would want you to." Mathiaos said to her.

Infuriated, Christy's eyes glows red and she punches Mathiaos in his face, knocking him out onto the floor. She leaps over the table and onto Mathiaos and punches him in his face, causing attention from others.

Maximus scurries over to Christy and pulls her off of Mathiaos. "That's enough, Christy."

Christy looks around at everyone, who looks at her worriedly. She and her father, Ames, exchange worried looks at each other.

Christy almost cries, but stops herself as she gets herself a hock bottle of wine and walks away, taking a swig of it, walking out of the dining hall.

Mathiaos slowly gets back up to his feet with a few bruises on his face.

"What the hell, Mathiaos?" Max said to him.

"I was just trying to playfully mess with her a little, Maximus." Mathiaos said.

"You shouldn't mess with Christiana who just buried her mother last night asshole." Maximus said to him, annoyed.

"Maximus?" Zenova said.

"Arias?" Ames said to the barkeep.

"Yes, my Highness?" Arias asked, slowly walks up to the Elder God Ames.

"Take Christy's food and drink to her, please? She's gonna need her strength and energy for what is to come."
Ames said to Arias.

"Of course." Arias said, gently taking Christy's plate of food and fruits and walks away.

Celia slowly walks up beside Ames. "Ames? If Christiana does not mourn, it will consume her."

"I know, Celia, I know." Ames said.

PIER MARKET

That afternoon, Christy is sitting at the counter, having finished her plate of food and fruits.

Christy takes a swig of her hock bottle of wine and she senses her father. "I'm okay, Dad."

"You fought with Mathiaos in the dining hall so, you are not okay." Ames said to his daughter. "I miss your mother as well, Christy. And it pains me to know that she's no longer alive. Your mother would want you to move on."

Christy looks at her Dad, glumly. "I don't know how, Dad. She was my rock. And yours. As a preteen, she would stay with me until I fell asleep and hums my bedtime lullaby."

"I know." Ames said. "You and your mother had a strong connection."

"So do we, Dad." Christy said.

Ames slowly walks up to her and Christy gets up and hugs him. He hugs her back.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

That evening, Christy slowly walks inside the courtyard. Luna and Trinity looks at their mother.

"Mom." Luna and Trinity said in unison, getting up from the sofa and walks up to their mother and hugs her.

Christy hugs her daughters. And Christy's grief consumes her as she finally cries.

Christy, Luna and Trinity pulls away from each other as Klaus slowly walks up to them.

Klaus and Christy walks up to each other and hugs and she cries again.

                        Shortly afterwards...

In Klaus's and Christy's bedroom, Christy lays on the bed, asleep, with a blanket covering her.

Klaus is at the doorway, looking at his sleeping wife.

And Elijah slowly walks up beside him. "How is she?"

"Christy seems fine, but I can sense it. She's not herself." Klaus said.

"Ames is downstairs in the ballroom." Elijah said.

Klaus and Elijah slowly walks away.

⚜️⚜️

Klaus, Elijah, Marcel and Gia are with Ames in the ballroom. And Ames is wearing casual clothes.

"Marcalos has The Titans is in his procession." Ames said.

"Christy told me that the Titans are non-ordinary unstoppable warriors with super strength and divine speed." Klaus said with his arms folded.

"Where are the Titans?" Gia asked.

"Sealed away in a impenetrable glass box in Marcalos's Underworld lair." Ames said to her.

"What of Christy?" Marcel asked.

"She's not quite ready. She's gonna need some time to heal." Klaus said.

"I agreed." Elijah said.

"Christy is gonna need her family and best friends to help her get through it. She will try to emotionally push you away, but do not let her do so." Ames said.

"We will." Klaus said.

Ames looks at his son-in-law. "Klaus? We need to speak."

Klaus nodded.

⚜️⚜️

That night, Out and about in the French Quarter, Klaus and Ames are taking a stroll.

"Christy is gonna need you the most, Klaus." Ames said to his son-in-law.

"I know." Klaus said. "At first, it was her grandfather, Dimitris, and now, Nadia."

"Christy is still grieving. But I'm also worried that it may re-emerge again." Ames said.

"Scarlett Sorceress." Klaus said.

"Christy's darkness is within her, Klaus." Ames said.

"I'll always be there for her, Ames." Klaus said to his father-in-law.

Ames small smiles and puts a hand on Klaus's shoulder. "Nadia loved you with all her heart. As do I."

Klaus and Ames exchange small smiles at each other and they proceeds to stroll together.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

Christy tiredly wakes up and sits up straight with the blanket covering her.
She looks at her phone on the nightstand. She picks it up and looks at it.

Christy small smiles to herself. She gently sets her phone back down on the nightstand and cross-legged position and closes her eyes.

"Azrith. Vitos. Zantos." Christy said the incantation to summon her dark alter ego, Scarlett Sorceress.

Christy opens her eyes, which are pure red eyes, and she small smiles to herself, making sure she has fully complete over her dark-side.
