No Quarter

Lizzie and Faye were standing together as Rebekah and Elijah fed on what was left of the prisoners of the bus they had stopped. Kol chased after one that had escaped into the woods nearby. Screaming of the prisoner's pain could be heard as Kol fed on him.

Faye was wearing a sweater with a jacket, a jean and some boots.

Lizzie was wearing a top with a leather jacket, a pant and some boots.

"Good lord, that one has some lungs on him. He should've been an opera singer. Might've ended better for him, actually." Rebekah joked.

"Is this absolutely necessary?" Freya questioned, standing beside them.

"That depends. Do you want us at our full strength, or do you plan on rescuing Nik on your own?"Rebekah asked, placing her hands on her hips.

"Well, death rattles are distracting, and I'm trying to break a cloaking spell." Freya replied.

"Kol, would you please?!" Elijah shouted and, instantly, the screaming stopped, so he said"Thank you."

"You were saying?" Faye asked.

"I can sense. Klaus is still in New Orleans. Most likely somewhere underground. I can't get a read on exactly where, unless I'm in the city itself."Freya explained what she had discovered and Kol comes back from his feeding as he joins them.

"Yes, and I've known for five years, Freya. But I haven't stepped foot in New Orleans since we left because Faye and I have contacts there. " Lizzie stated.

"And as you can imagine, the place is crawling with vampires, all of whom hate all of us." Faye explained the conflict.

"Whatever we do, we need to do it fast." Lizzie told them.

" Well, I wasn't planning on a pub crawl. I don't want to stay any longer than we have to. But we need to go." Freya stated.

"Whoa. Wait... Wait, we're not doing this today?" Kol frowned, as he looked between his siblings, Faye and Lizzie. His chin and shirt were stained with blood.

"Hasn't Nik suffered enough?" Faye asked.

"Yes. And I've almost died. I'm not about to give Marcel a shot to really kill me. Now, I say, we draw that Muppet out of town. And when he's gone..." Kol exclaimed, holding three fingers up.

Lizzie interrupted"I have been away from my kids long enough. If you're afraid..."

"It's called being sensible. Until Freya can make enough cure with her werewolf hostage, Marcel can basically chew through our bloody throats." Kol stated as he gives her look of annoyance.

"Enough. We're all in danger. We free Niklaus today. Even if I have to burn that city to the ground." Elijah spoke as he stands up.

They had made it to New Orleans. The group splits into two: Rebekah, Elijah and Faye search for Josh while Lizzie, Kol and Freya go to a place where they won't be found for Freya to do a locator spell to find Klaus. Lizzie quietly walks into the bell tower, checking the surroundings to make sure that they're in the clear.

"All clear, Freya." Lizzie said, letting her guard down and Freya walked further inside with a map in hand.

"This is where you absolutely had to do a locator spell?" Kol asked as he observes the dusty looking bell tower.

"Ah, well, when I first moved to New Orleans, I primed this space. Marked it with my magic, made it mine." Freya explained and lays out the map on the table that's near the window.

"This dusty bell tower may be your own, but this is Marcel's city, and we're nothing but targets." Kol exclaimed and stands next to the table, leaning against it.

"All the more reason to let her get to work. The sooner we find Nik, the sooner we get out of here."Lizzie told him as she sighed.

"It won't take long." Freya muttered, groaning in pain while she's cutting her finger to use her blood for the locator spell.

Later, Rebekah had left to find Marcel. Josh now owned Rousseau's and that was where Faye, Lizzie, Elijah, Kol and Elijah were. Freya had located that Klaus was somewhere underground. They were in the back room waiting for Josh to clear out the bar so they could access to the tunnels.

"All right, sorry, folks. We'll, uh, we'll get that gas leak fixed up, and we'll be back tomorrow with two-for-one hurricanes." Josh said loudly to his customers. After a moment he spoke again, "Everyone's out. Place is yours."

They walked out into the restaurant. Kol smirked "See? Wasn't that easier than us having to try to kill everyone?"

"Yeah. So, what now?" Josh asked, putting an empty glass down on the bar.

" Would you be so kind as to move that freezer unit, so that we might be able to access the tunnels?" Josh asked, putting an empty glass down on the bar.

"Time's ticking, Josh. Go on." Faye said.

Josh began to walk toward it but Lizzie stood in front of him, facing the others.

"Okay, just because Josh owns this place, doesn't he becomes your slave." Lizzie told them. She held her hand up in line with the freezer unit. She jerked her hand to the right, making it slide across the floor and slam into the side wall.

"Huh. Looks like someone's been training up." Kol smirked, surprised.

"Oh, please, that was nothing." Lizzie told him.

Kol smiled at Lola before glancing over to his siblings and Faye as he asked "Are you absolutely certain we're looking in the right place?"

"We know this tunnel runs the length of the city. Marcel must've carved out a section to serve as his personal dungeon." Freya said.

"Ingenious and sadistic. Well done, Marcel."Elijah says, raising his eyebrows at the thought.

Kol rolled his eyes, saying "Save the compliments for when he comes to kill us. Your flattery might give him pause."

"Cute."Faye says in amusement.

"Okay, you're all set here. So, uh, good luck, break a leg, and I'll just be on my way."Josh said, heading to the door.

Kol blocked him and objected "What, so you can rat us out to Marcel? Not bloody likely."

"Oh, just snap his neck. We'll be done by the time he wakes." Freya told him.

Elijah coked an eyebrow "And if he wakes before that?"

"Then kill him." Kol suggested.

"I'm right here, guys."Josh frowned.

"We're not killing him." Faye told them.

"Yeah, you're probably right. For some reason, he's of value to Marcel. Kol, would you?" Elijah said, looking at Kol.

"Happy to stay and have a drink and eviscerate anyone who tries to follow you." Kol smiled.

"Good, then let's go. We're wasting time." Freya said, rushing toward the tunnels.

"Splendid." Elijah says, nodding.

They rush through the tunnels, following the connection Freya has with Klaus. They get closer and closer as they feel the pull gets stronger. Elijah hears a groan with his super senses and he guides them down the tunnel to see a gate and a body lying just behind it.

" Niklaus! Brother." Elijah yelled out for him and runs towards the gate to see him unconscious.

"Let's me try." Freya said, nodding her head uses her telekinesis to unlock the large iron lock and chains from the gate. Once Lizzie takes in the hybrid who looks beaten up horrendously, Lola stepped forward to him instinctively.

"Nik." Lizzie said as a barrier stopped her from going through and she looked down to see the salt circle.

Freya places her hands in the air, they come to rest on an invisible wall, a boundary spell blocks their path to Klaus.

"This spell is strong. It's been reinforced over time, which means it's going to take time to break." Freya says as she stepped back from the barrier.

"We don't have time." Elijah quickly replied and looks at his brother worriedly.

"I could try brute force. Overwhelm it. But I'll need someone to channel." Freya suggested.

"We'll do it." Faye and Lizzie quickly volunteered.

"Elijah, you keep watch." Faye said.

Elijah nodded at the plan and Lizzie, Faye and Freya get down onto their knees in front of the barrier. Freya holds her hand, taking Lizzie and Faye's hands into her own and begins to chant an incantation "Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata."

Considering that the spell will take time and a lot of power break, Freya, Faye and Lizzie main on the ground focusing their power. Elijah paces around as he stands guards and he stopped, his super senses catching Marcel approaching from the courtyard.

"Freya. Whatever happens, don't stop until Niklaus is free." Elijah called out to her but she continued to chant.

Without saying anything, Freya nodded at her brother and she doesn't stop chanting an incantation. Elijah vamp speeds to the compound's courtyard and greeted Marcel who isn't so surprised to see Elijah standing before him.

"Hello, Marcellus." Elijah greeted.

Freya continues to chant, struggling with the spell to break Vincent's boundary "Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata."

Lizzie looks up to see Klaus moving his hand around his chest, but nothing exactly happening. She thinks for a moment before speaking up.

"Nik, if you can hear me, please pull through!" Lizzie called out for him over Freya's chants. Thuds from above causes Faye and Lizzie to stop and they looks above them.

"We have to get up there." Faye says to Freya and she quickly shakes her head.

"No, not yet. I'm almost through. Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata. Go. Go!" Freya continued to chant louder below them and the salt begins to deteriorate creating an opening and Freya told the girls "Go. Go!"

Faye and Lizzie lets go of her hands and speeds out of the tunnel, leaving it up to her alone. Freya's motions her hand forward as if she is opening something in front of her and she grits her teeth "Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata. Klaus! Can you hear me?"

Out in the courtyard, Elijah and Marcel were fighting each other. Elijah throw the man over the balcony jumping down to join him. Suddenly Faye and Lizzie vamp speeds between them, keeping them at bay for a few moments.

"Faye, Elizabeth, leave us." Elijah says, still keeping his eyes on Marcel.

"He's right. This is between me and him." Marcel agreed.

"And if we stay, you'll kill me too, make my children orphans?" Lizzie asked.

"It's not your fight..."Elijah started.

"Yes, it is. The kids need their father, Marcel." Lizzie interrupted.

"Yeah? I had Klaus as a father. It didn't turn out so well, did it? Your children are better off without him." Marcel asked with a glare.

"Get Niklaus and go." Elijah instructed.

"Oh, he's not going anywhere, Elijah. And neither are you."Marcel says and charges at him.

Lizzie casted a spell on Marcel which made Marcel scream in pain until Klaus appeared and stabbed Marcel with Papa Tunde's blade.

Elijah rushes over to his brother's side, helping him stand up and the group rushes out of the compound before Marcel would come after them. They were rushing inside of a draining pipe, but they have successfully freed Klaus from his imprisonment. Everyone manages to get out of the crammed space and the other two embrace as they reunite.

"Hey, you can hug him later. We need to leave." Freya announced her siblings.

"Marcel's right behind us. Go. Go!" Faye told them.

As they attempt to flee, Marcel blocks their path to their car. But he was in a weakened state due to the stabbing he had from Lizzie and Faye and godly weapons could hurt him.

"Actually, I'm right here." Marcel said as he walked up to them.

"You shouldn't have come back none of you." Marcel added.

"That's what family does. We fight for each other." Faye exclaimed and Marcel scoffed.

"Yeah, so I've heard. Though it didn't really work out for me, did it?" Marcel asked, rolling his eyes.

"Oh, for God's sake, you were never a Mikaelson, get over it. Don't you have a city to run? Vampires to boot out of town?" Kol says harshly and Marcel glared at him.

Marcel steps forward though Rebekah blocks his path to Kol.

"Marcel, this feud is over. I get you're pissed off and I'm not saying you shouldn't. But I have one little girl and one little boy who needs their family."Lizzie began.

"How can you stand there and defend them, after Davina?"Marcel asked.

"Because she, her siblings and I casted a spell on you to implant fake memories on you. "Faye said.

"What are you talking about?"Marcel asked.

"Davina is alive and she's with Jeremy. We needed to get them out of town. And we knew you would never agreed to it if we asked, so we casted a spell to implant fake memories on you. We did it to protect her. She's alive."Lizzie informed.

Rebekah says "If you want to kill one of us, you'll have to kill us all."

"Hey, don't push me, Rebekah." Marcel pointed at her sternly.

"Then get on with it. Let's end this once and for all." Rebekah says as she stands up for her family, but is stopped once stepped in.

"That's enough. That's enough, Marcel, you've won. New Orleans was our city once. Now it's yours. For good." Klaus says as he walked forward so that his sister back down and he faces Marcel.

"Is the great Klaus Mikaelson accepting defeat? Or is this all just another distraction?" Marcel asked.

"Neither. In fact, despite your appalling behavior, I'm offering you a chance at peace. Attempt to kill us all, and you will be making a mistake. Any who survived would no doubt return to seek revenge, bringing our enemies back to your city in our wake. And even if you did manage to eliminate us all, one day my children and nieces and nephews would come for you. And their children after that. On and on for all your days An endless cycle of violence you will bring upon yourself. Or... Or we leave and we never come back." Klaus explained as Lizzie and Faye listened as he spoke.

" After all that time buried in a hole, you still got some nerve. Yeah, well, you stand there with a straight face and try to sell this like it's your choice. But here's the truth. I could kill all of you right now. And tonight I would sleep like a baby. Hell, that's what you would do. " Marcel smiled in disbelief at the man.

"I doubt it. Siphoning still work on you."Lizzie told him.

Marcel ignored Lizzie as he continued "You've destroyed more people, taken more lives, ended more families than anyone who's ever lived. All because you can. But here's the other truth. Despite being raised by you people I am nothing like any of you. "

" In fact, I'm proud as hell I'm not a Mikaelson. I beat you all without turning into you. And now you can live the rest of your lives knowing that the only reason that you exist is because I am showing you mercy. Now go. And don't ever come back." Marcel then says aloud as he looked at Kol who made the snarly comment earlier.

"Give me Davina's address." Marcel demanded.

"No, she is better off without you. You would put her in danger. Especially now that she's pregnant." Lizzie denied his request.

The Mikaelson, Lizzie and Faye hurry to the SUV waiting for them. Klaus remains standing there, watching as Marcel backed away as each member get into the car. Lizzie walked up to the hybrid, placing a hand on his arm gently and he looked to her with a nod. She returned the gesture and the couple joined the family, ready to leave the city once and for all.

Lizzie drives into the driveway of the safehouse. She parks the car just in front of the white fence and everyone gets out of the car. Lizzie, Faye , Kol and Freya already heading inside.

Klaus stepped out of the car and stares up at the house.

"What is it?" Elijah softly asked.

"Five years has never felt so long. Thank you for not abandoning me."Klaus says, looking to his side where Rebekah stood.

"Well, we did consider it. The vote was rather close." Rebekah jokes with him and places a sweet kiss on his cheek.

She, Kol, Faye, Freya and Elijah leave him and Lizzie alone outside while they make themselves at home. The heretic walks over from the driver's side and stands beside him, looking up at the house as well.

"You okay?"Lizzie questioned as she looked at Klaus who doesn't remove his eyes from the building.

"Oh, you mean considering the imprisonment, torture, and forced isolation?" Klaus solemly asked, althought a small smile remains on his face.

"For what it's worth, I'm sorry. I can't imagine what you've been through." Lizzie softly replied and places a gentle hand on his arm reluctantly.

"Well, I had moments of solace to sustain me. It's because of them I'm here now." Klaus said as he turns towards her and gives her a small smile.

She returns the gesture and walks up the steps, stopping at the top and faces him before she asked "So, does that mean you're ready to see your little wolves?"

The hybrid takes a deep breath and walked inside with her, staying close by. They head upstairs and went to Hope and Theo's room. Hope and Theo lay on their beds and moving while sleeping. Lizzie quietly opened the bedroom door and Klaus sees his children for the first time in four years.

"Want me to wake them for you?" Lizzie asked him and he shakes his head.

"No. Let's them sleep."Klaus quietly says with a look of admiration as he watched them sleep peacefully.

The parents stepped out of the room to let the children sleep and Lizzie guides him to their room, turning the light on to show the master bedroom. Klaus looked around the room, seeing a few pictures frames of the children looking happy together or with Faye, Jo, and Luke. Some were also with Jackson and Hayley.

Lizzie walked up to him with clothes for him and he smiles and taking them. He excuses himself and goes into their own bathroom, cleaning the blood that covered his body. Once he finished washing off, he walked out fully clothed in clean clothes and sees Lizzie standing next to the window in her night attire. She looks up at the crescent moon out of the window, feeling a wave of relief wash over her now that her family was safe and under the same roof.

A hand is placed on her shoulder and she looks over, feeling the pad of Klaus thumb rubbing over the area of her birthmark that he can see. He moves his hand up to push a piece of hair behind her ear and so he can look into her eyes. They slowly smiles at each other lovingly and Lizzie places her hand on his cheek, wanting to make sure that this wasn't some kind of dream. Klaus leaned down, placing his forehead against hers and pulls her close by her waist. She smiled wide and looked up at him, seeing that he's already looking at her. The couple finally connect their lips against each other and melt into each other's touch, happy that they can be in each other's arms once again and able to make love. At that moment, Klaus and Lizzie were the happiest that they could be.
