Chapter Twelve

HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- HOTEL LOBBY

The next day, Ana and Christy slowly walks down the hallway.

[Christy Outfit]

"I think Gemma knows I'm out of the penitentiary." Christy said to her best friend, Ana. "Chief Advisor knows things."

"Yeah." Ana said.

Christy spots Chief Advisor Gemma in the lobby with two hotel security guards.

"Ana?" Christy said and gently pulls her back and they both lean back against a wall behind a tree.

"What the hell is Gemma doing here?" Ana asked.

"She's looking for me." Christy said.

In the hotel lobby, Chief Advisor Gemma is speaking to the hotel receptionist.

"I know that you are keeping Christiana Mikaelson here at this hotel. As Chief Advisor, I demand you to remove her." Chief Advisor Gemma told her.

"That's enough, Gemma." Christy said, revealing herself to her along with Ana. "You have something to say, here I am."

Chief Advisor Gemma and Christy exchange tense looks at each other.

"I've gotten word that you were released from the penitentiary early." Chief Advisor Gemma said.

"If anyone that needs to be sent to the penitentiary, it's you, Gemma." Christy said and gently folds her arms. "Why would you frame me for a murder I didn't commit?"

"You know why, Christiana?" Gemma said.

"To destroy my legendary status and turn everyone against me, yeah, I know." Christy said. "But Gemma, I did warn you to not try anything, and it will backfire."

"You think you can get away with anything just because you're the Orasanian Legend." Chief Advisor Gemma with an attitude.

"You're wrong, Gemma. I don't get away with doing bad things whenever I become my dark-side, but I do make amends and atonement." Christy said.

"Christy is well-respected by everyone here. And unlike you, Gemma, she didn't buy anyone's loyalty, she earned it." Ana said.

At the mention of Christy's name, Chief Advisor Gemma lunges at Christy, but Christy grabs her by her arm and gently twists it with a grunt from Gemma and gently pushes her away.

Gemma looks at the two security guards. "Apprehend Christiana Mikaelson."

The two security guards doesn't comply.

Chief Advisor Gemma becomes aggravated. "Did you not understand what I said! As your Chief Advisor, I order you to apprehend Christiana Mikaelson!"

Still, the two security guards doesn't comply.

Klaus, Zenith, Thalia and Max gently walks down the stairs and into the lobby upon hearing the commotion.

Christy looks at the two security guards. "Restrain her."

And the two security guards restrains Gemma.

"Interpol Agent Jun are on their way, Christy." Thalia said.

"Now, I want something." Christy said, taking out her phone and dials Dementrio's phone and puts it on speakerphone.

"Christiana?" Dementrio said on the speakerphone.

"Dementrio? I need you to listen very carefully to Gemma's confession." Christy said.

"I'm with Serafine right now at the palace guard house." Dementrio said on the speakerphone.

Christy holds up her phone to Gemma. "Confess to everything."

Gemma looks at Christy with tension. Interpol Agent Jun walks into the hotel lobby with the Manila envelope.

"Confess!" Christy yelled.

"Or what, Dark Enchantress? You will disintegrate me in front of everyone here?" Gemma taunted her with a chuckle. "Go ahead! Show everyone who you really are. Show everyone your Dark Enchantress?!"

"Confess, Gemma." Christy tells her. "Do it?!"

"Alright, I murdered the Venetian spy woman. I lured her here and I killed her and I framed Christiana Mikaelson for it." Gemma confessed.

"Dementrio?" Christy said.

"I have Gemma's confession, Lady Christiana. All she has to do now is sign the parchment confession." Dementrio said and hangs up his phone.

Interpol Agent Jun takes out the parchment paper confession and hands it to Gemma.

"Sign it." Christy told Gemma.

The two security guards lets Gemma go, so, she can sign it. With a fountain pen, she signs her cursive signature on the confession parchment.

And the two security guards restrains Gemma again.

"What shall we do with her, Lady Christiana?" The security guardsman asked.

Christy looks at Gemma. "Take her to the dungeon. The Elders will decide her fate."

The two security guards puts binder cuffs on Gemma's wrist and walks away with her.

Interpol Agent Jun looks at Christy. "I'll get this parchment confession to Dementrio." And he walks away.

Christy looks around at everyone. "I'm sorry you all had to see that. But it had to be done."

Klaus, Ana, Zenith, Thalia and Max slowly walks up to Christy.

"So, it's over?" Zenith asked.

"It's not over yet, you guys." Christy said.

Later that day, everyone is in the throne room, awaiting for the good news. Klaus, Christy and co., are together.

"According to The Elders, I, Theseus, hereby, reappoint Christiana Mikaelson as our Chief Advisor." Theseus told everyone.

Everyone applauds for Christy. Klaus pecks a kiss on her cheek and she smiles.

Theseus and Andriani bows at Christy. And she bows back at them.

"Chief Advisor Christiana. It is good to have you back again at the palace." Andriani said.

"Thank you, it's good to be back." Christy said.

Christy slowly walks into the office and sees the Supreme Loyalists along with Vek and Bassea awaiting for her.

They bow at her and Christy bows at them.

"Welcome back, Chief Advisor Christiana." Supreme Loyalist Kreutzer said.

"Thank you, Kreutzer." Christy said.

Christy sits behind the desk. And the Supreme Loyalists sits down in their sofa chairs.

"Okay, then, catch me up on everything." Christy said.

"Absolutely." Supreme Loyalist Aris said.

HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- PALACE KITCHEN

That late afternoon, Christy sits at the kitchen table eating a strawberry souffle.

The Six Handmaiden Assistants slowly walks into the kitchen.

"Hey, ladies." Christy said. "And apparently, my eyes-and-ears task didn't quite work, so, I'm sorry."

"It's alright, Lady Christiana. We're just happy that you're the Chief Advisor again." Handmaiden Assistants Lisabeth said.

"And we're delighted to serve you again." Handmaiden Assistants Danai added.

"Danai? Will you be okay?" Christy asked.

"I will be alright, Milady. I appreciate your concern." Handmaiden Assistant Danai reassured her.

"Okay." Christy said. "I'll see you ladies around."

The Six Handmaiden Assistants curtsy at Christy and walks away.

Head housemaid Frances Rose slowly walks into the kitchen.

"Frances Rose? Hi." Christy said.

"Hello, Milady Christiana. I have come to inform you that the French Chateau has been restored. The District Trink faction are no longer staying there." Frances Rose informed her.

"Okay, thanks for letting me know, Frances." Christy said.

"You are welcome, Lady Christiana." Frances Rose said with a curtsy and walks away.

Minutes later...

Christy continues eating her soufflé. Klaus slowly walks into the kitchen.

"Hey, Hon." Christy said. "Is everything okay?"

"Elijah called. I have to go back to New Orleans." Klaus said, slowly walks up to Christy and sits down at the table with her. "No doubt there is usual among the supernatural community."

"Yeah, and I have things to catch up on." Christy said.

"So, how does it feel to be your Chief Advisor again?" Klaus asked.

"It feels good." Christy tells him. "And to back here at the palace again. The hotel was pretty cool though."

"So, it's all over." Klaus said.

"Yeah, it's over." Christy said. "Are Luna and Trinity going back with you to New Orleans?"

"They are, along with Ana, Zenith, Thalia and Max." Klaus said.

"I'll come by the compound." Christy said.

"How about a date to celebrate clearing your name from this nonsense?" Klaus asked.

"Sure." Christy said. "Our usual restaurant The Olive?"

Klaus small smiles. "Of course."

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles and lightly chuckles with each other.
