FIVE; ELIJAH MIKAELSON
(3.18)
ย ย ANUBIS STOOD IN FRONT OF THE MIKAELSON WITH A SMILE ON HIS FACE. Elijah stood with his hands in the pockets of his black suit. He wore a black tie and matching dress shoes and his mouth was slightly agape. Anubis folded the paper and neatly and put in his pocket while looking at Elijah.ย
ย ย "Elijah Mikaelson," the name rolled off of Anubis' tongue like he knew the Original, "I would say it's a pleasure meeting you but it's not."ย
ย ย Elijah gave a half-hearted smile at the god, "I don't know your name but there's been some sort of presence lately in Mystic Falls since you were seen at the Mikaelson ball."ย
ย ย "Wow, you are really observant," Anubis noticed, "You just jump right into things."ย
ย ย "I'm not here to play here games." Elijah's tone was firm, "It's best you tell me who you are what this quaint room is before I rip your throat out." the words rolled out of Elijah's tongue and although they were threatening his tone was calm.ย
ย ย Anubis let out a laugh that ringed in Elijah's ear. Elijah kept a serious look on his face, wondering why Anubis was laughing.ย
ย ย Anubis caught his breath, "It's so funny." he said without a care in the world.ย
ย ย "What is?" Elijah asked straighteningย his back.ย
ย ย "You think you can kill me." Anubis grinned flashing his pearly white teeth at the Original. Anubis' eyes glowed gold before turning blue.ย
ย ย Elijah was more confused than before. Instead of taking a step back, he took a step forward towards the god. Elijah had to admit that he was curious as to who was standing before him and that he was a little afraid. He saw Anubis as a threat but he couldn't show it.ย
ย ย "Who are you?" Elijah asked, a puzzled look on his face.ย
ย ย Anubis stuck out a hand to the Mikaelson, "I am Anubis."ย
ย ย Elijah stuck out to shake his hand, "Anubis?" he started, "Like the god of death?"ย
ย ย "That's why your mother brought me back." Anubis cocked his head to the side and let go of Elijah's hand.ย
ย ย "My mother brought you?" The Original asked widening his eyes.ย
ย ย "Of course she did, she wanted me to do something in case she failed." Anubis held his hands out in front of him.ย
ย ย "To finish what?"ย
ย ย Anubis smiled and walked around the golden coffin, "You sure do ask a lot of questions. Reminds me of someone I know."ย
ย ย "Enough." Elijah spat, "Why are you here and what is that piece of paper you put in your pocket and that oh-so gocky ring on your finger." Elijah's lips were in a line and his jaw was clenched and his tone had a tad of annoyance. Anubis smirked at the sound of his voice.ย
ย ย "Oh, you mean this?" Anubis held up his hand showing the ring, "It was an offering from the Egyptians before I youย know." Anubis took out the piece of paper, "This, nothing just a hint to bringing down the Mikaelsons."ย
ย ย Elijah straightened his back, "Many have come after our family and they have all ended up dead and we remain."ย
ย ย "Ah, but I'm different. I am the god of death. Once I kill someone, they can no longer come back, they will stay dead and if you get all the witches of the world it still won't be enough. You Mikaelsons have roamed the Earth for too long, now it's time to stop you all before more deaths are to come." Anubis slipped the paper back in his pocket.ย
ย ย "Don't you strive off of it? You are the god of death, you've seen more than anyone else?"ย
ย ย "I have but no more innocent ones will die by the hands of the Mikaelsons."ย
ย ย Elijah smirked, "Well, Anubis, I offer a proposal," Anubis motioned his hand for Elijah to continue, "This has been a civil conversation, something I hoped for. In order for you to do that spell, you need a witch to do it. I heard that you already have one but sadly, my brother has her. Bonnie Bennett, right? I'm sure no come will harm to her but my brother Klaus is very different. You hand me that ring and I will make sure no one dies tonight."ย
ย ย Anubis' jaw clenched, he kept his face calm so Elijah wouldn't read his emotions. The witch had gotten herself in trouble. If she was dead Anubis wouldn't have anyone to complete the spell. He hated to admit it but he needed her.ย
ย ย Anubis walked over to Elijah and stood in front of him. He took off his ring and held it with his fingers and Elijah held out his hand, "You know, when this ring was given to me, the witches cast a spell on it. It could only be worn by me, anyone else who wore it would perish. Of course, an immortal like you would suffer a great pain." Anubis dropped the ring in Elijah's hand and in an instant, it was as if the ring had vervain on it. Elijah's hand started turning red and smoke started emitting from the ring.ย
ย ย "I'll be back to get what's mine." Elijah started grunting as the ring burned the palm of his hand.ย

ย ย Since Anubis couldn't vamp to the Mikaelson mansion, he had to do things the human way. He drove a bike there that he had found in the town square. He was pedaling fast towards the mansion, the moment the Bennett witch was harmed meant that his plan had failed.ย
ย ย When he reached the mansion, he got off the bike and let it crash to the ground. Seconds after Anubis arrived the Bennett witch walked out. Bonnie rubbed her arm as she walked out looking back to see if anyone was watching. When she saw Anubis her eyebrows furrowed and her expression softened.ย
ย ย "What are you doing here?" she asked, "You're not supposed to be here, they can't see you."ย
ย ย "I'm afraid it's too late for that, Elijah Mikaelson caught me in the act of getting this." He pulled out the paper from his pocket and Bonnie grabbed it gently from his hands as she opened it up. She read the scribbled text and Anubis watched her eyes skim the paper.ย
ย ย "This is the spell, that'll help us?" her emerald green eyes flickered at Anubis, there was hope in her eyes that it would work. ย
ย ย "Indeed it is Bonnie Bennett."ย
ย ย "Why did you come here?" she asked.ย
ย ย Anubis looked at the windows of the Mikaelson mansion. The lights were on in some and in others they were on and he watched the shadows move, "If Klaus were to harm you, there would be no spell to cast and then no Mikaelson to defeat. So, get whatever other scenarios out of your head because that is the only reason why I am here."ย
ย ย Bonnie licked her lips, "So, you only want me to cast this spell. You don't care what happens to everyone else. You just want me alive to cast this stupid spell. My friends got hurt in the process and you don't even care." she looked up at Anubis her eyes were filled with hurt.ย
ย ย "I do care, I just can't show it. I care about the innocent lives at hand, I can't help what happens around me. So, maybe before you go assuming things listen to what the other person has to say about it."ย
ย ย Bonnie scoffed and started walking towards her car and Anubis followed, "Bonnie come on."ย
ย ย She stopped at the door of her car, for the first time, Anubis showed a little bit of emotion, his eyes had a glimmer of worry.ย
ย ย "No, Anubis!" she cried, her eyes were starting to fill up with tears, "I am constantly doing things for my friends. I am the one going all the way out just to protect them. Yet, I am the one who is constantly getting screwed over. I am tired of people using me and then just throwing me out. My grams is dead, my mom is a vampire. I can't keep doing this!" her voice cracked between words and tears were streaming down her face. Anubis looked at her with pity and he a knot in his throat. ย
ย ย He was never good at showing emotion but he didn't want Bonnie to feel like she was only being used. Of course, he needed her for the spell and he felt like every other person that had used her. He stepped closer to Bonnie and wrapped his arms around her in an embrace. Bonnie was surprised by the gesture but she was too emotional to care. She wrapped her arms around Anubis and buried her face in his chest, her tears staining his shirt. He stroked her ebony hair, "It's okay." he whispered.ย
ย ย "It's okay."ย
