ST. JAMES INFIRMARY
The next day, Klaus and Christy are sitting at the bar counter, snacking on paper food tray of hush-puppies with forks.
{Christy's Outfit}
"So, hush-puppies are your favorite snack food?" Klaus asked his wife.
"Yeah, I always go to the pier market." Christy said to her husband, Klaus.
"I had poison in me, snake venom, and you transferred it from me to you." Klaus said to her.
"What are you trying to say?" Christy asked her husband.
Klaus gently holds Christy's hand in his hand. "Mount Orasani doesn't need a savior, and neither do I."
Christy looks at Klaus, knowing he's right. "I know."
"But stubborn as you are, you do it anyway." Klaus said.
"When I was a child, everyone known me as Ames's and Nadia's little girl. And so, I wanted to be a warrior." Christy said.
"You know I love you, Christiana. And I know that you would sacrifice yourself for me and our family and best friends. But you don't have to, but you choose to do so." Klaus said. "I already have Elijah making sacrifices for family."
"I get it, Klaus." Christy said to her husband.
"Do you really?" Klaus asked her.
"Yeah, really." Christy replied.
Klaus sighs to himself. "Bloody hell. I know how stubborn you are."
"Exactly." Christy said.
Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other. And she playfully bops his nose with her finger. And Klaus playfully scrunches up his nose.
Klaus and Christy exchange playfully chuckles with each other.

Later on that day, In the courtyard, Christy is speaking with the Elder Gods and Goddesses with the throne room as astral projections wearing golden couture outfits.
Her parents; Ames and Nadia; her grandmother, Celia, Zenova, Asterion, Pythios, Ageron, Desponia, Persephonea, and Tithonus.
"Marcalos hasn't shown his hand as of yet, but I do sense that he's up to something." Christy said with her arms folded.
"Marcalos has always been wicked." The Elder Goddess Asterion spoke up.
"But with his unborn grandchild, maybe, Marcalos's heart will change." Ageron added.
"Do you really think that Marcalos change himself for the sake of his unborn grandchild?" Christy asked. "Not that I'm doubtful or anything."
"There is a slight possibility that Marcalos will slight change for the sake of his unborn grandchild." said the Elder God Tithonus.
"Sure, of course." Christy said, and becomes worried.
Which Ames notices. "Speak your mind, Christiana."
Christy looks at her Dad, worriedly. "My dark alter ego, Scarlett Sorceress, it emerged once, but I'm worried that it might emerge itself again, will it?"
"You have embraced your dark alter ego, Scarlett Sorceress, Christy." Celia said to her granddaughter.
"But it is up to you to make your own choices." Nadia added.
"And what of Zenith?" Christy asked. "Is there a slight possibility that he change for the sake of his son?"
"It is slight possibility, yes." Zenova replied.
"Does Marcalos seeks my husband's, Klaus's, immortal soul?" Christy asked.
"Even though, Klaus's immortal soul has been tainted by the bloodshed that he has endured throughout his immortal life, but however, you and your daughters have become his redemption." The Elder God Tithonus replied.
"Thus atoning for his misdeeds." The Elder Goddess Persephonea added.
"What of Mount Orasani? Is it any danger?" Christy asked.
"Mount Orasani is safely and well-protected by us Elder Gods and Elder Goddess." The Elder Goddess Desponia spoke.
"But we admire your concern, Christiana." Pythios said.
"Thank you Elder Gods and Goddesses." Christy said, and nodded.
Ames, Nadia, Celia, Zenova, Asterion, Pythios, Ageron, Desponia, Persephonea, and Tithonus nodded at Christy and magically fades away.
Christy looks up at Klaus, who's at the second floor railing. "How long have you been up there?"
"Didn't want to disturb you." Klaus said, and walks down the stairs and into the courtyard and slowly walks up to her. "You asked me to the Elder Gods and Goddess."
"Yeah, I just wanted to know if Marcalos still wanted your immortal soul and he doesn't." Christy said.
Klaus small smiles. "The Elder Gods and Goddess were right." and he gently pulls Christy close to him, gently wrapping his arms around her waist. "You and our daughters are my redemption."
Christy small smiles and gently cups his face with her hands. "And you guys are mine."
Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other and kisses, passionately.
