- Christy's Premonition -

In the courtyard, Christy is holding Klaus's desiccated head in her arms as she sits on the floor of the courtyard. He has a white oak stake embedded in his stomach. She pulls it out of him.

"Klaus?!" Christy exclaimed, distraught, teary-eyed. And screams out in distraughtly.

Thus, she transforms into her Scarlett Sorceress.

Awakening from her Premonition, Christy wakes up, worriedly, and pants softly to herself.

And Klaus tiredly wakes up and sits up sideways. "Christy? You okay?"

Christy turns over to look at him and tries to small smile. "Yeah, I'm fine."

But Klaus isn't quite convinced and becomes worried. "What is it?" He asked her.

"Nothing." Christy said to him. "I'm fine, really."

"You know, I can tell when you're trying to keep something from me, Love." Klaus said to her.

Christy gently cups his face with her hands. "I'm fine, Klaus. I'm okay, I'm fine."

Klaus and Christy kisses each other and gently leans their foreheads on each other's.

After-awhile, Christy slowly walks down the stairs and into the courtyard. She sees her husband, Klaus and her brother-in-law, Elijah.

"Elijah?" Christy said, walks down the stairs and walks up to him and hugs him. He hugs her back and pulls away from the hug. "I know you needed some time to yourself."

"Thanks for your concern, Christiana. I assure you I'm fine." Elijah said. "And how are you? You're a little bit restless."

"I'm fine. Luna, Trinity and Nikole kept me up with a game of Monopoly." Christy said with a small smile. "I have to meet up with Marcel at the ancient chamber. I'll see you guys when I get back home."

Christy walks away from Klaus and Elijah, who exchange worried looks at each other.

"Niklaus?" Elijah said, having sensed something's off with Christy.

"I sensed it too, Elijah." Klaus said, having sensed it himself.

OUTSKIRTS OF NEW ORLEANS

Marcel and Christy slowly walks inside the ancient chamber.

"Didn't know that this was here." Marcel said to Christy.

"The Elder Gods and Goddess made this ancient chamber and the desert lands themselves." Christy said to Marcel.

Christy's phone buzzes in her jeans pocket and she pulls out her phone and looks at it.

Klaus

Christy answers her phone. "Hey, Klaus."

"Can you meet me at St. James Infirmary for drinks?" Klaus asked her on the phone.

"Yeah, sure." Christy said, hangs up her phone and puts it back in her jeans pocket. She looks at her best friend, Marcel. "Marcel? I gotta go."

"Alright, I'll meet you back here whenever you're ready to come back." said Marcel.

"Okay, love you." Christy said.

"Love you too." Marcel said.

"I'll take you back to your loft apartment." Christy said.

Marcel and Christy holds each other's hands and she teleports away in golden dust.

ST. JAMES INFIRMARY

That afternoon, Klaus and Christy are sitting at the bar counter with their drinks of bourbon.

"There's something more to that ancient chamber, I just know it." Christy said, gently rests her head on her hand and looks at Klaus, who looks at her, worriedly. "What?"

"There's something you're not trying to tell me, Christiana." Klaus said to her. "Elijah sensed it, and so did I. So, what is it?"

Christy takes a swig of her bourbon looks at Klaus. "Klaus?"

"You had a premonition, didn't you?" Klaus asked her.

"Yeah, I did." Christy told him. "It was about you."

Klaus becomes worried at this revelation.

"You were in the courtyard at the compound. Your body was desiccated and somehow, you were stabbed with the white oak stake. I held you and I transformed into my Scarlett Sorceress." Christy told her husband, Klaus, about her premonition.

"So, in your premonition, I somehow, die?" Klaus asked her.

"Probably, yeah." Christy said.

"So, is that why you had a nightmare this morning? You had a premonition about me?" Klaus asked her.

Christy nodded. "Yeah. I'm sorry I didn't tell you, Klaus."

"Christy, you can't keep things from me." Klaus said.

"Klaus?" Christy said.

"I know what you're gonna say." Klaus said, and gently holds her hand in his hand. "You're not gonna lose me."

"And I don't want Luna and Trinity to lose their father either." Christy said.

Klaus and Christy exchange worried looks at each other. And she drinks the rest of her bourbon.

"I gotta go back to the ancient chamber. I'll see you back at home." Christy said, getting up to her feet.

"How about another date?" Klaus asked her, getting up to his feet.

Christy looks at her husband, Klaus. "What?"

"Go on a date with me?" Klaus asked his wife.

"Klaus? How can we go on a date when we have enemies to worry about?" Christy asked him.

"Christy?" Klaus said with a soft look in his dark blue-green eyes.

"Okay." Christy said to him.

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other. They share a kiss and she walks away.

OUTSKIRTS OF NEW ORLEANS

That late afternoon, Marcel and Christy are looking at a wall with hieroglyphics.

"These hieroglyphs must be something." Christy said.

"Christy, what's really going on with you?" Marcel asked her, becoming worried. "I mean, I get it, this ancient chamber is pretty cool, but I think you can came here to distract yourself."

"I had a premonition about Klaus." Christy told Marcel. "He was desiccated and with a white oak stake in his stomach."

"So, you're saying that Klaus is gonna die?" Marcel asked her.

"Yeah. But it's also a possibility." Christy said.

"Damn. Does Klaus know?" Marcel asked her.

"Yeah, I told him. Both Klaus and Elijah sensed it. But the thing is, if Klaus dies, I will become my Scarlett Sorceress again." Christy said. "I know my husband has done a lot of monstrous things, destroyed life's. And yes, he deserves his comeuppance, but Klaus has changed."

"He changed for you, for Luna and Trinity. He loves you guys very much unconditionally." Marcel said to Christy.

Marcel and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

Christy's phone buzzes in her jeans pocket and looks at it.

Thalia

Christy answers her phone. "Thalia?"

"Christy? I think I'm gonna go into labor." Thalia said on the phone.

"I'm on my way." Christy said on the phone, and hangs up her phone and looks at Marcel. "I have to go, but I'll see you around."

"Alright." Marcel said.

Marcel and Christy holds each other's hands and she teleports away in golden dust.

MOUNT ORASANI

Christy walks inside the infirmary room where a full-size baby bump Thalia is laying on a bed, wearing a gown.

Christy slowly walks inside and slowly walks up to Thalia. "Hi."

"Hi." Thalia said.

"Where's Zenith?" Christy asked.

"I'm right here." Zenith said, walks up to Thalia.

"Thalia?" The infirmary nurse, Giannis, said. "Are you ready?"

"I'm ready." Thalia replied.

"I'm gonna leave you two." Christy said.

"Christiana? Can you remain with Zenith and I?" Thalia asked her former childhood best friend-turned best frenemy.

"Sure." Christy said.

Suddenly, a contraction consumes Thalia as she shouts in agony pain.

"Alright, Thalia." Giannis said, putting a blanket over her legs. "On the count of three."

"Okay." Thalia said.

"One . . . Two . . . Three." Giannis said.

And Thalia pushes with her strength with Zenith at her bedside. Thalia proceeds to use her strength to give birth.

"Just a few more, Thalia." Zenith said to his fiancΓ©e.

"Again, Thalia." Giannis said.

Thalia inhales and exhales and pushes again with her strength.

And suddenly, a little baby boy cries. Giannis gently holds the newborn baby boy in her arm and cuts the umbilical cord with a pair of scissors.

"You have a beautiful little baby boy." Giannis said.

Thalia slowly sits up straight. She and Zenith gaze upon their newborn baby son as Giannis wraps newborn baby boy in a blanket and hands Thalia her son.

Zenith and Thalia gazes at their newborn baby son; Damien.

"Hi, Damien." Thalia greeted her newborn baby son.

"Hi, son." Zenith greeted his son.

Christy excuses herself and slowly walks away.

"Christy?" Zenith said.

Christy stopped walking and turns around to look at him.

"Thanks." Zenith said with a small smile.

"You're welcome, Zenith. Thalia." Christy said with a small smile, and teleports away in golden dust.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

That evening, in the courtyard, Luna and Trinity are sitting on the sofas, playing on their PSPs.

Christy walks inside the courtyard with a plastic takeout bag. "Hi, Luna. Trinity." She greeted her daughters.

"Hi, Mom." Luna and Trinity greeted her.

"You guys hungry?" Christy asked, gently sitting down the plastic takeout bag on the coffee table.

"Yep." Trinity said.

"It's simple deli food." Christy said, sitting in a armchair.

"Food smells good." Klaus said, walks down the stairs and into the courtyard.

"It's takeout food." Christy said, handing a plastic takeout container to both Luna and Trinity. "I got it from the French market."

"I know you're doing this for family time." Klaus said to her with a small smile.

"Yeah, you never know what's going pop up or anything." Christy said.

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other. And Klaus, Christy, Luna and Trinity eats their takeout food.

⚜️⚜️

That night, Klaus is laying down on the bed, reading, "The Prince And The Enchantress Book 02".

"You really like my book, don't you?" Christy asked her husband, slowly walks up to him and sits down on the bed.

"Of course, I'm already on chapter five." said Klaus with a small smile.

"Well, I'm glad you like it." Christy said with a small smile, but her small smile fades away and she becomes worried.

Which makes Klaus worried himself and gently sets down his book on the nightstand. "You're still worried about the premonition of me, aren't you?"

"Yeah, I am." Christy replied.

"You said it yourself, it's a possibility that it might not come true." Klaus said.

"My premonitions always comes true, Klaus." Christy said to him, worriedly. "The thing is, we've done monstrous things or misdeeds. So have I as my Scarlett Sorceress."

"But we can also be redeemed." Klaus said to her.

Klaus and Christy exchange soft looks at each other and they kiss, passionately. He gently pulls off his long sleeve shirt, revealing his bare chest and his tattoos, she pulls off her red jacket and sleeveless camisole tank top, revealing her medallion tattoo on her right side back shoulder.

And the husband and wife gently lays down on the bed, sideways, proceeding to intimately make love with each other.

3RD POV

At Zenith's monastery, in the dimmed lit of Baby Damien's nursery, Baby Damien is asleep, and Zenith is looking at him with a small smile.

Thalia slowly walks inside the nursery and slowly walks up beside her fiancΓ©, Zenith. "Our little baby Damien is asleep."

"Do you think he will have purple wings like me?" Zenith asked Thalia.

"I'm pretty sure." Thalia said.

Zenith and Thalia exchange small smiles at each other. Suddenly, a whoosh is heard in the main room.

Zenith walks out of the nursery and into the main room where Marcalos is.

"Zenith?" Marcalos greeted him.

"Marcalos? What are you doing here?" Zenith asked the Elder God of the Underworld.

"I'm here to see my grandson, Damien. I am his grandfather." Marcalos said.

"Damien's asleep. Now, please, leave." Zenith said.

"I'm not going anywhere until I see my grandson." Marcalos said.

"Zenith told you leave, Dad." Thalia said, slowly walks up beside Zenith.

"Thalia? My daughter. It's been a while." Marcalos said to his daughter.

"You need to leave." Thalia said to her father, Marcalos.

Marcalos becomes annoyed. "You're started to sound like Christiana. Or is she the source of your change of heart?"

"You've always been jealous of Ames and Nadia and you tried to dethrone the Elder Gods and Goddesses. And that's why you were exiled to your Underworld lair." said Thalia.

"Thalia?" Marcalos said.

Zenith makes his eyes glow purple and bares his fangs and makes his purple wings spreads out.

Marcalos and Zenith exchange annoyed looks at each other.

"You forget Marcalos. I'm an Elder God as well. And I can communicate with my Ravens." Zenith said.

"Alright." Marcalos said, and disappears into flames.

Zenith makes his eyes back to normal and his purple wings turns back into wing tattoos.

Zenith and Thalia exchange worried looks at each other.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

Later on that night, in Klaus's and Christy's bedroom, Klaus is asleep in bed, and Christy is wearing Klaus's long sleeve shirt, baring her legs, gently leaning sideways on the small balcony wall.

Zenith telepathically communicates with Christy. "Christy? Christiana?"

Christy telepathically replies back to Zenith. "Zenith? What is it?"

"I think Marcalos is scheming something. And it's really not good." Zenith telepathically told Christy.

And Christy becomes worried.
