Aurora's Revenge Part Two
On the outside of the church, Klaus has vamp-sped himself and Aurora outside the church, and he's now dragging her to the parking lot behind the building as he scowls at her. Aurora, however, seems amused.
"Oh, you're quite cross, aren't you? I haven't seen you this mad in a thousand years." Aurora told him.
"If you don't behave yourself, you'll see a lot worse." Klaus told her coldly.
Aurora jerks out of his grip and stops walking, turning so she's looking him in the eye with a haughty expression as she says "I don't much like that tone! Although, given what I did to Rebekah, I suppose it's to be expected. Unless the source of your ire is the threat I made against your little pet... Or is it because of the threat I made because of your whore?"
Inside the church, Faye and Lizzie pull Cam behind them.
She saw the two guys that Aurora snapped necks walking closely.
"I'm so hungry." The first guy says.
Back to the alley behind the church, Klaus and Aurora continue to talk.
"You really do care about her, don't you?" Aurora asked about Lola.
Klaus gives her an annoyed look, though he smiles weakly and patronizingly at her.
"Well, now I suppose I shall have to kill her. Along with Cami. "Aurora says.
This immediately enrages Klaus to the point that he vamp-speeds toward her and slammed her against the wall of a nearby building.
"Ooh, are we to play rough now? Foreplay's changed in the last millennium." Aurora yelped in surprise.
Before Klaus can react, Aurora spins them around so that it is now he who is pinned against the wall and she who is doing the pinning as she said "Tell me, can your pathetic Elizabeth excite you the way that I can?"
Aurora tugs on the lapels of his jacket with a hungry and flirtatious demeanor as she continued while she strokes his chest as he glares at her "Can she allow you the joy of giving into your most wicked desires?"
Inside the church, Cami said "Listen to me, all right? You're in transition. You're gonna have to feed on blood."
"I know the rules. Marcel told us. If I don't feed... I die." One of them said.
Outside, Klaus angrily pushes away from Aurora and walks back toward the church.
" I am tired of this fantasy. You were someone I left behind long ago. There is nothing between us now. " Klaus told her.
Aurora, realizing that her plan has backfired now that she's pushed Klaus too far, tries to fix it "You're angry."
Klaus turns back to face Aurora and scowls at her as she rushes over to him.
" We say things to hurt each other when we're angry. That's what lovers do. But I know that I'm the one for you. As I know that you will thank me... eventually for killing that whore and your pets."Aurora told him.
Inside, Cami was now helding onto a mop she snapped in half.
"I suggest you back off!"Lizzie growled.
Klaus is furiously continuing his conversation with Aurora as he sneers at her "You presume to know me? Then know this...I will gladly end you for what you did to Elizabeth and Camille. But first, I'm gonna make you suffer in ways your spoiled little mind cannot possibly imagine."
Aurora's eyes widen in shock and fear, visibly hurt by the rage in his voice as he talks to her.
"And when it's over..." Klaus started as he lunges toward Aurora and grabs her by the arms as he slowly pushes her backward.
"When your sweet recollections have been rendered obsolete, you will associate my name with fear and pain, and perhaps the dull realization that you..." He continued.
Klaus slams her backward against the wall of the nearby building, and Aurora whimpers fearfully.
"Are nothing to me." Klaus finished.
Aurora gasps in shock and fear as Klaus quickly grabs either side of her face with her hands and closes his eyes as he dives into her mind for the information he seeks. After a moment, he finds the memory of Aurora handing Tristan the envelopes with the latitude and longitude of Rebekah's location. They each open their envelope to memorize the coordinates. Klaus then sees the latitude coordinates on the card in Aurora's envelope, which are "27° 46' 26" N".
When Klaus has memorized the coordinates for himself, he pulls away from Aurora with a shocked expression as Aurora recovers from this mental intrusion. Aurora looks at him in horror and is visibly feeling betrayed, which makes Klaus smirk in satisfaction.
"You went into my mind." Aurora whispered.
"And took the only thing I needed from you. So... What's to stop me from killing you now?" Klaus said smugly.
Inside the church, Cami is still trying to fend off the starving newborn vampires who are swarming around her by brandishing her makeshift stake at them. It's clear by the tone of her voice that she is both angry and terrified.
Faye and Lizzie easily snapped their necks.
Outside, Aurora is looking at Klaus with tears in her eyes as she cries plaintively "But I love you, and I know that you know me!"
"Well, I don't love you anymore. I will never love anyone as much as I love my wife. You're just someone I used to love." Klaus said as he vamp sped inside.
"Let's go. Before bitch number two wakes up."Faye said.
Klaus looked at Lizzie and then wrapped his arms around her in a hug, which Lizzie returned by wrapping her arms around his neck and holding him tightly before they kissed each other passionately.
Then they all left together.
At the compound, downstairs in the now-trashed living room, Freya (who is now healed thanks to Marcel's blood), Elijah, Luke and Sage have gathered together to discuss the events of this evening. Freya is holding the enchanted stake that Marcel left behind in her hands as she examines it.
"This stake was imbued with dark magic. It's strong enough to take down even you." Freya explained.
Elijah, who has been pacing around the destruction, looks down at the dead Strix members commented "So apparently The Strix has no shortage of weapons."
"Well, at least they don't have Marcel..."Luke pointed out.
"I'm not so sure about that." Elijah said bitterly.
"Look, I know he attacked you, but..." Sage disagreed.
Luke gestures toward the stake in Freya's hands as he said "He could have used that thing on you, and he didn't."
Elijah doesn't seem convinced, and Sage spoke up "And, for what it's worth, he did save us."
"And healed me and Luke. A few minutes more and we would have been dead." Freya says quietly.
"Do I need to remind you that because of your beloved hero, Tristan is free, Rebekah is lost..." Elijah told them.
Elijah is suddenly distracted by the sight of the blood splatter over his portrait on the far wall. This triggers a flashback to the visions he received from Alexis. First is a flash of the portrait of Elijah that has been splattered by a fount of blood, just like what happened in the fight less than an hour ago, followed by a glimpse of a grimoire that is open to a page with a complex-looking spell written on it and illustrated with pentacles. He then sees the part of the vision that includes a very strong-looking, unidentifiable man who snarls, revealing wickedly-pointed fangs that are longer than any other vampire seen on either series. In the present day, Elijah looks concerned as he stares at his portrait as he then said "This prophecy threatens to devour us still."
Some time later, Faye had went to pick up the kids who were at Hayley and Jackson's house.
At the compound, in the living room, Cami was sitting on the couch of the den with a towel full of ice pressed against her injured head and Lizzie and Klaus sat next to her when Klaus asked "Can I get you anything?"
"I'm fine." Cami said as she sets the ice pack down on the coffee table and scoots over to make room for him.
"I mean, my head is throbbing, but all things considered..." Cami continued.
"Well, for tonight, I'd like you to stay here... where I can protect you." Klaus smiled.
Cami nodded.
"Camille, I want you to know... what happened today..." Klaus apologised.
"Hey, forget about it. It's not your fault." Cami smiled weakly.
She then turned to Klaus and says "I have to ask... Right before you showed up, did you hear what Aurora and I were talking about?"
"Your incident at the university... the man you assaulted? I did and you have to be asshamed of. We're going to let you rest." Klaus said, grabbing Lizzie's hand and they head upstairs.
"Thank you, Nik, for coming to our aid." Lizzie sighed and Klaus places a hand on her upper arm.
"Always, you mean the world to me. And what I said about loving her..." Klaus trailed.
"It was a lie. I know. I saw the look on your face, you were afraid for my safety."Lizzie a interrupted.
"I might have loved her in the past but not anymore. I will always love you. You're my present and future."Klaus told her before they kissed each other passionately.
Elsewhere, Aurora is sitting by herself on a park bench on the street in the French Quarter, her eyes filled with tears and a devastated look on her face. After a moment, she's approached by a sympathetic-looking Lucien, who sits silently next to her for a moment before he speaks in a quiet voice "If you ask me, Niklaus is an utter fool. Always has been."
Aurora, unable to hold back her tears any longer, starts to sob, and Lucien looks at her with a sad smile, scooting closer to him so their arms are pressing together. Aurora seems comforted by this gesture and moves closer to him as well as the two sit together in silence.
