Papa Original
The next morning, Lizzie walked into the quarter with Faye by her side.
Lizzie was wearing a top with a brown leather jacket, a pant and some boots.
Faye was wearing a sweater with a red jacket, a pant and some boots.
They walked into Rousseau's where there was music playing, people drinking and having fun during the time of a lost friend. Lizzie looked around confused as to why everyone was partying like Kieran's death was the greatest thing ever.
Storming past the girls is Cami with an irritated and upsetting look on her face and they sighed knowing she's going through. Lizzie and Faye spot the Mikaelson brothers, Sage and Luke sitting at a table, they walked toward and sit between them.
Lizzie realised that Klaus was full brooding mood as he looked as he was determined to drown his sorrows and troubles away.
"Hello, love, how did you sleep this morning?" Klaus greeted Lizzie as he placed his arm around her causing her to lean in.
"Good until one of your children decided to lodge their foot in my ribcage." Lizzie smiled as she saw the worry and concern in his eyes since he knew that she wasn't sleeping.
"I hope they aren't hurting you too much... Seems rather uncivilized to laugh and dance around the body of a loved one." Klaus said, looking around the room at everyone dancing.
"Yes, far better to practice your process of grief, Niklaus which includes denial, rage, and hoarding coffins in basements." Elijah told him, gesturing to his brother's obvious bad mood.
"Elijah." Luke scolded.
"Rather than the normal stages of grief which are denial, rage, acceptance, bargaining, and depression. Although I skip bargaining and got back to rage." Lizzie commented, trying to help them.
"I will warn you, ladies, Niklaus is in a spectacularly foul mood today." Elijah told the girls.
"Sod off." Klaus mumbled to Elijah.
"I don't need to be warned and all hings considered I think his mood is just fine." Lizzie defended Klaus as she placed her hand on his knee under the table to comfort him discreetly.
Faye added as she looked through the crowds to see Hayley still standing at the side of the bar, now speaking with Derek "We've convinced Hayley to move back to the compound. We don't want her in the bayou after those attacks, we'd rather her be closer to us."
Elijah agreed "I think that's wise."
Hayley walked towards them with Sage.
"What's the deal with these moonlight rings? Oliver's trying to set a revolution every five seconds. People are scared, angry, and frankly, I'm tired of stalling." Hayley muttered in annoyance in a hushed tone.
"It's a day of peace, Hayley. Try and enjoy it. The rings are in progress. I will live up to my word. We will find and punish whoever launched the attack on the Bayou..."Klaus said, frustrated.
"He's doing this for you, Hayley. Cause he know how much it means to you. You could be grateful."Faye told Hayley.
"But, right now, I'm gonna finish this bottle and the next, in the hopes of drowning the demon who has chosen today to haunt me. Cheers, Mikael. Impeccable, Freudian timing." Klaus said, as he picked up the bottle of bourbon before drinking it straight from the bottle, worrying Lieeir.
"Wait, is this about your dreams?" Lola asked, wondering what had happened between last night when they had talked and now since he now seemed more worked up than he did then.
" Elaborate. Have you dreamt of our father?" Elijah asked, very stunned.
"Go ahead, have a good laugh." Klaus muttered.
"I can assure you there is no piece of this that I find even remotely amusing, Nik. Especially considering I've been dreaming of him, too." Elijah revealed and Klaus shoulders slump.
"What?"Klaus asked.
Lizzie blinked, tension spiking "That's not a coincidence. That's witchy interference."
" If we are both seeing him..." Elijah trailed off.
Just as he does, walking inside the bar is Genevieve. The red haired witch glances over at the table they are all seated at and smiled once she catches their attention.
" Perhaps our elusive, unknown enemy is orchestrating a further attack?"Luke suggested.
"Well, then. What better way to punctuate a day of peace than by killing someone?" Klaus smirked.
"Oh god. I think my morning sickness is coming back. I'm gonna puke."Lizzie groaned.
"Hush, love. We'll figure out what spell she's cast and then kill her. Seeing Mikaelson isn't a pleasant dream."Klaus said, amused.
"I want her dead, Nik. She reeks of future problems."Lizzie muttered, annoyed.
"I'm unkillable, remember?"He said smugly.
Lizzie said sweetly "With how many people you've pissed off. I'm sure your enemies are organising a boy band as we speak. Complete with matching t-shirts that say 'Kill the Arrogant Hybrid Asshole'".
Sage chuckled "At least they'd be easy to identify."
Klaus said, rolling his eyes "If it comes to that, I'll crush the rebellion... just like Marcel's."
With that, he, Sage and Elijah stood and strode toward Genevieve, leave the girls and Luke behind.
The next day, they were now walking down the streets of New Orleans, enjoying the parade for Father Kieran.
Lizzie was pale, shivering despite the warm air. Klaus had draped his jacket over her shoulders. Now she was coughing violently, struggling to catch her breath.
"You alright? You look..." Klaus started.
"A hundred months pregnant and pissed off at the world?" Lizzie cut him off.
"I was going to say you look lovely." Klaus chuckled.
"Smart man. Never piss off a hormonal woman with combat magic. But she's the one you should be complimenting."Lizzie said, gesturing toward Faye.
"Lizzie!"Faye scolded.
Hayley didn't listen _ she was too focused on Francesca ahead of them, dabbing fake tears from her eyes.
"Do you think I was the target of those bombings?" Hayley asked suddenly.
"Of course you were the target! Were I to wage a war on the wolves, you'd be my first kill! I would string you up, for all your worshipers to see." Klaus stated and expressed his vision with his hands as Hayley glared at him.
"I believe that was my brother's way of telling you he's glad you decided to return home with us. Perhaps try a different approach, Niklaus, with fewer references to murder?" Elijah clarified.
"As much as I would hate to throw you over my shoulder, and drag you kicking and screaming to the compound, we both know I would have done it for your sake. You may think I don't care about you, but you're one of us now."Klaus said.
Hayley smiled, touched "Thanks, Klaus. It means a lot coming from you but seriously, thanks."
"Don't get used to it." Klaus joked.
Klaus then wrapped his arm around Hayley, pulling her close. Leaving the others to stand awkwardly before he whispered to her " Now. My father lived to torment me. It is not my intention to become him. This cycle of misery ends with my children."
"You forgot something in your touching speech... I decide what I do."Hayley said, yanking herself.
She grabbed Lizzie's arm and pulled her way. Lizzie waved dramatically at the brothers as they walked off while Faye, Sage and Luke laughed.
"Very heartfelt, Niklaus." Elijah sighed.
"I bloody hate funerals." Klaus growled.
"Who doesn't?"Sage replied.
"Sage, I owed you apologies. For all those centuries. When Me, Rebekah and Kol never thought you were right for our brothers, now I see you were always the one. I'm so sorry how we treated you."Klaus apologised.
"I forgive you."Sage said.
Lizzie saw Cami walking near the front of the procession, and runs to catch up with her.
"Lizzie!" Lizzie called out.
"Lizzie. Hi." Cami greeted.
"Hi, we haven't spoken that much, but I just wanted to say that..." Lizzie smiled.
She then pause and cough loudly before she continued " I'm sorry about your uncle. He was really... good to people like Hayley during the storm. He had a really good heart."
"Thank you." Cami says, nodding gratefully until she realized why she was there "You want something, do you?"
"I'm sorry about the timing... I was just wondering, if before he died, he said anything weird about Francesca Correa? I think that she may have been involved in an attack in the Bayou. If you hear anything..." Lizzie sighed, feeling guilty.
"Look, Lizzie? I'm trying... mostly failing... to stay out of all this stuff but...she's a real bitch. So, yeah, if I hear anything, I'll let you know." Cami cut her off.
"Thanks. And again, sorry about your uncle." Lizzie told her, nodding.
Cami nodded, walking away.
Lizzie walked toward where Hayley was before she begins to cough a bit, but it intensifying. She stumbles a bit and leaned against a light post, coughing harder and blood spits out from her mouth.
Genevieve noticed the pregnant girl's state and she called Klaus and Elijah, grabbing the attention of the Mikaelson brothers and Luke, Sage, Hayley, and Faye and they all run over. Before they can reach to the pregnant girl, Lola collapses on the ground, passing out.
Klaus picked her up in bridal style and the group rushed into the compound to make sure not to cause a scene. Luke clears the table in the courtyard by moving everything to the floor and Klaus lay her down on the table.
"I can help." Genevieve started but Holden stepped in.
"Don't touch her." Hayley growled, as she glared at her, sensing a dark aura around the witch.
"Let it be, Hayley. She was a nurse." Klaus told her. Hayley backed down and stand next to the others who started to panic.
Meanwhile, Lizzie's eyes open as she is in a completely different realm but that seems more hazy than the world she is used to. Her surroundings was just the same, being in the compound but lying on a table. The room was completely empty which throw her off and she gets off the table, noticing she was not alone and saw Mikael walking toward her.
"This is a nightmare. I'm dreaming."Lizzie said as she stepped back.
"On the contrary, my darling... this is very real." Mikael smirked.
He speeds toward the girl and puts them into a choke hold. She tries to pries his arm off but it was no use.
"Welcome to my hell, stuck in an eternity of watching over that hideous creatures my children call brothers!" Mikael exclaimed as he makes sure the siphon had no way of releasing herself.
"You're dead! How can we be here? Oh my god! NO! Noo! The babies!"Lizzie paused for a split second and thrashed in his grip.
"The babies? Those kids never had a chance! You poisoned it by merging it with Klaus' bloodline! The deathless vermin, fancying himself a daddy?" Mikael laughed maniacally.
Lizzie used her magic to twist his arm magically causing him to groan in pain. She picked up some coat rack close by and swings at him, sending the man flying. As she grips the makeshift weapons, Lizzie's hands glowed red .
"They are not dead! We are not dead! If we were dead, you wouldn't be trying to kill me!"Lizzie yelled.
In the present time, Genevieve presses a damp bundle of Chamomille Hayley had retrieved for her on Lizzie's forehead and she chanted a spell. The group watched impatiently for Lizzie to wake up but she was not budging. Klaus frustratingly bites into his wrist and places his bleeding wrist close to her mouth only to be disappointed that she was not drinking their blood.
"Come on!" Klaus muttered in fear of losing the love of his life and his children.
"She's still not breathing. It's not working!"Faye said in frustration and picked up a table, throwing it against a wall causing it the shatter.
"I'm taking her to a real doctor."Luke said, stepping forward to pick his sister's body up but Genevieve stopped him.
"If you move her from here, my spell will break. There won't be enough time to get her to a hospital." Genevieve breaks it to him and Luke turned away angrily.
" Will the babies survive if delivered now?"Hayley asked.
"No way! Lizzie will bleed to death!" Sage said as she stepped in front of her with Elijah, Klaus, Luke, and Faye.
"I won't lose them!" Hayley shouted.
"We won't lose either of them!" Luke said.
"Someone in the other side is stopping them from waking up. I can sense it."Faye realized.
"So what do we do?"Elijah asked.
"There is a special gemini spell that can send one of us' astral form there. One of us need to be sent there to help Lizzie get back in the real world. But in order for work, someone need to send me here."Luke said.
"I will do the spell."Faye stated.
Faye chanted the spell together "Dico autem perfectum de illis alveo flammis, Et focus animo in hac tabula ad alios proiectus immortales spiritus menus."
The spell send Luke in his astral form to the Other Side.
"You're dead, Mikael. Your son already beat you!" Luke heard Lizzie told Mikael.
"He is not my son! He is a scourge, walking symbol of weakness!" Mikael exclaimed as he walked closer to the siphon girl.
Luke appeared in front of them as he said to Mikael " Get away from my sister! I know you think you control everything in here but it's not the case! I control everything! I control you."
Mikael ignored him and said to pregnant girl " There is no saving that atrocity festering in your womb. Klaus will destroy it, one way or another. Better he dies now, and you along with it!"
"I don't like to be ignored. You need to be taught a lesson. "Luke said, siphoning Mikael making him groan in pain.
"There is nothing more important to me than family. Lizzie is my sister, my twin!. And I won't let you hurt her. You need to be punished. And Mikael, the babies have an advantage Klaus never had... They will never, ever know you."Luke told him as he used his magic to break every bones in his body and Mikael screamed in pain.
Luke then waved his hands to make his sister go back into her own body.
Suddenly, Lizzie woke with a loud gasp and Faye, Hayley, Luke, Elijah and Sage rushed to her side, helping her sit up from the table while Klaus placed a hand on her shoulders softly. Lizzie touches around her neck as she feels the now died up Klaus' blood and she looked at everyone, terrified.
Lizzie breathed out, leaning against Klaus as her chest rose up and down rapidly "What is it with your parents trying to kill me? Your family is so fucking weird."
Later on, after Lizzie took a shower to clean away the blood and change clothes, she was now staring up at the ceiling as she laid on hers and Klaus' bed, mind somewhere else as Klaus knocked on the door, letting her know he was there.
"You've proved quite resilient, sweetheart, like you always are. Fighters, the three of you." Klaus commented.
"I guess we've had to be. Especially lately. Besides, I'll take more than your psychotic dad to get rid of me."Lizzie smiled.
Klaus hesitated, uncharacteristically quiet "I'm sorry. It was my fault... that my father found you."
Lizzie rolled her eyes and said "Oh, please, Nik. Don't take the blame for a man who was born a twat and died the same way. You didn't ask to be born from an affair with a werewolf anymore that Luke or I asked to be born siphons. Our fathers were just cowards who hated what they couldn't control."
Klaus gave a small, touched smile as he said "Anyway, if you would come with me. I have something I'd like to show you."
He walks to a door next to he and Kiara's shared room but she doesn't move a mustle.
Lizzie takes a deep breath and walks towards him by the door. A smile appeared onto his face and he opened it up to reveal a perfect sized room for two cribs inside, perfect for a nursery. There are toys and books for the babies on shelves, bassinets and crystal mobiles hanging above the cribs among other things. Lizzie walked further inside as she takes in everything that Klaus has created for their girl and boy and he smiled at his mate, loving her reaction.
"Believe it or not, Elizabeth, I would actually like you to be here. Our children should be raised by their parents, in her family home. And I surely want to spend an eternity with you." Klaus explained and Lizzie softly touches the crystals.
"You, me, Elijah, Faye, Sage, Luke and Hayley and the miracles babies all under one roof? Sounds like a bad reality show."Lizzie said as Klaus smiled.
Lizzie turned around at his sudden words and she noticed his face is serious. She gives him a small smile and she guides his fingers over the wood of the crib and Klaus slightly sighs, the silence eating him alive "Uh, you said you saw my father? What did he say to you?"
Lizzie walked closer to the hybrid and places her hands on either side of his face before she responded "Nothing worth repeating. Just the same pathetic insults over and over, like a brook record with a God complex. Besides, I kicked his undead ass."
The hybrid genuinely smiled after taking this into consideration and he removed one of her hands, taking it into his own before he said "I wouldn't expect anything less."
He stepped closer, voice lowering "You almost died. In a thousand years, I can't remember ever being so... terrified."
"Well it's going to take more than an undead asshole with a daddy complex to get rid of me. But... it's kind of sweet you were scared for me."Lizzie said, gently punching his chest.
And suddenly, Lizzie groaned as she felt her womb glowing red.
Klaus asked "What's going on?"
Lizzie trailed "I think... I think the babies are siphons. Like me and Luke."
"How is it possible?"Klaus asked.
Lizzie said "It's rare but not impossible. Luke and I did it to my mom. Almost killed her. Twice. Before we were even born."
Klaus gasped, looking horrified "You could die?!"
"I won't. But I'll need to siphon more often. That way if our little miracles gets thirsty, it won't drain me dry."
Klaus still looked worried, before he sighed "You'll siphon from me of course. And I'll make sure Elijah, Hayley, Faye and Sage on are standby. You won't be alone."
Lizzie nodded before embracing him. Klaus embraced her back.
