Chapter Twenty-One
HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- CHRISTY'S BEDCHAMBER
Early morning at 5:00 AM. Klaus is asleep in bed, wearing his usual gray tank top and pajama pants.
Klaus's Nightmare
In a dark abandoned church, it thunderstorms outside, Klaus slowly walks into the aisle, looking around.
Suddenly, Mikael appears. "Hello, boy."
Klaus looks at Mikael. And before Klaus can react, Mikael grabs him by his throat and slings him across the church and Klaus falls on the sacristy steps.
Mikael saunters up to Klaus. And Klaus looks up at him.
"You're a pathetic bastard?! You are nothing?! A weakling?!" Mikael exclaimed.
Klaus changes his eyes to golden werewolf eyes and tackles Mikael. They both fall on the aisle. But Mikael disappears, leaving Klaus alone in the darkness.
Reality
Klaus wakes up and sits up straight with the bedcover covering the lower half of his body. Sensing their father's distress, Luna and Trinity magically appears, wearing their pajamas and walks up to him and gently wraps their arms around his shoulders.
"Dad?" Luna said.
"It's okay, Dad. We're here." Trinity said.
Klaus, Luna and Trinity gently lays back down on the bed. Luna and Trinity both comfort their father as the father and daughters goes back to sleep.
⚜️⚜️
Later that day, Klaus is still asleep, laying in bed. The smell of food causes him to wake up and sits up in bed.
In the palace kitchen, Klaus gotten dressed in his usual dark clothing and slowly walks into the kitchen where he sees Luna and Trinity making pancakes and waffles.
Klaus gently leans sideways in the kitchen doorframe, watching his daughters make breakfast, just like their mother.
Flashback
At the MIKAELSON COMPOUND, in the kitchen, Christy, Luna and Trinity are making pancakes and waffles.
"Make sure you read and follow the instructions." Christy said to her daughters.
"Okay." Luna said with the pancakes.
And Trinity with the waffles.
Klaus slowly walked into the kitchen and gently leaned sideways in the doorframe, watching his wife and daughters make breakfast.
Christy looks at her husband Klaus with a small smile. "Hey, Honey. Luna, Trinity and I are making pancakes and waffles, so, it'll be a minute."
"I can't wait." Klaus said and slowly walks up to the kitchen countertop and sits down at it. "I love watching my wife and daughters cook in the kitchen."
Klaus and Christy exchange smiles at each other.
Now
Klaus is still leaning sideways on the door frame as Luna and Trinity talks to him.
"Dad?" Luna said.
Klaus looks at his oldest daughter. "Lu?"
"Are you okay?" Luna asked.
"I'm fine." Klaus reassured her with a small smile and humorously teases her. "I thought I smelt something burning."
Luna and Trinity playful chuckles.
"We're being careful, Dad." Trinity said.
"Did you have a bad dream?" Luna asked.
"Something like that, but I'm fine." Klaus said. He slowly walks up to the kitchen table. "And I appreciate the two of you staying with me."
"We sensed that you were distressed about something, so, we came to check on you." Trinity said.
"Dad, it's okay to be sad about Mom. You don't have to put on a reassuring face for me and Trinity." Luna said.
"You girls sound like your mother." Klaus said.
"We miss her and we know you do too." Trinity said.
Klaus, Luna and Trinity exchange small smiles at each other.
shortly after...
Klaus, Luna and Trinity sits at the kitchen table with a platter of pancakes and waffles.
"There's a newspaper article about Charlotte Petrova." Luna said.
"What do you mean?" Klaus asked.
Luna shows her father the newspaper article about Charlotte Petrova with the headlines "LEGENDARY PETROVA IS THE RED KNIGHT".
"What's with the "Legendary Petrova" and the "Red Knight" stuff?" Trinity asked.
"Charlotte is trying to replace your mother's legendary reputation with her own." Klaus said.
"She can't do that, right?" Luna said. "No one can ever replace Mom or take away her legendary reputation because she's the Orasanian Legend."
"I know, but Charlotte wants what your mother has; the praise and the legendary fame." Klaus said.
Klaus, Luna and Trinity exchange looks at each other.
Klaus's phone buzzes in her pants pocket. He takes out his phone and looks at it.
It's Theseus.
Klaus gets up and walks over to the kitchen countertop and answers his phone.
"Theseus?" Klaus said.
"Sire Klaus? I wanted to inform you that Dementrio and Serafine have restored the Oasis Waters Pit and have received the Golden Fleece from Tomar and his bandits." Theseus told him.
"Should I hold on to this newfound hope?" Klaus asked.
"You should. It is good news." Theseus said, and hangs up his phone.
Klaus slowly walks back over to the kitchen table and sits back down with Luna and Trinity.
"What was that about, Dad?" Luna asked.
"That was Theseus. Dementrio and Serafine has repaired the waters pit and has gotten back the Golden Fleece." Klaus told his daughters.
"Is Mom coming back?" Luna asked.
"Let's not get our hopes up just yet. Theseus will talk to me later." Klaus said.
"Okay." Trinity said.

HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- SARCOPHAGUS CHAMBER
That late afternoon, in the dimly-lit sarcophagus chamber, the Elder Goddess Ismene slowly walks up to the sarcophagus and gently opens the lid.
Christy's dead body lays inside the sarcophagus.
"Anubis come forth." Ismene summoned the Elder God Afterlife.
A gush of sand swirls up from the floor. Anubis is there with his staff. He slowly walks up to Christy's dead body and conjures her spirit and places it back in her body.
"You are restored, Milady Christiana." Anubis said.
Christy's dead body glows gold and stops glow.
The Reverend Oracles Theoni Arija and Isa slowly walks into the sarcophagus chamber.
"Theoni, Arija, and Isa? Prepare Christiana's body for the revival ritual." Ismene said.
"Yes, Your Highness Ismene." Reverend Oracle Theoni said.
Reverend Oracles Theoni, Arija, and Isa bows their heads at Ismene and slowly walks away.
Ismene looks at Anubis. "Thank you, Anubis."
Anubis bows at her and disappears into a puff of sand.
shortly after...
In the OASIS WATERS PIT CHAMBER, the Reverend Oracles Theoni, Arija, and Isa gently places Christy's wrapped up dead body in the waters pit.
{Christy Outfit}
The Elders are with them. The Reverend Oracles gently walks over to Theseus.
"Aixeca't . . . de la mort!" ("Arise from death!") The Reverend Oracles Theoni, Arija and Isa chanted in the ancient Orasanian language. "Aixeca't . . . de la mort! ("Arise from death!")
As The Reverend Oracles chanted, the water glows gold, illuminating the dimly-lit room.
"Aixeca't . . . de la mort!" ("Arise from death!") The Reverend Oracles Theoni Arija and Isa chanted one last time.
The water stops glowing and illumination stops.
Suddenly, a resurrected Christy leaps out of the waters pit and gently lands on the floor in a crouched stance, dripping with water.
Christy breathes heavily. The Reverend Oracles Theoni, Arija and Isa walks up to her and kneels down beside her.
And Christy faints in their arms.
Reverend Oracle Theoni injects Christy with a sedative dart.
The Elder God Nadia walks up to them and kneels down next to her resurrected daughter.
"She will need rest to fully recover, Your Highness." Reverend Oracle Theoni said to Nadia.
"See to it that she recovers." Nadia said.
"Yes, Your Highness." Reverend Oracle Arija said.
Ames and Nadia exchange small smiles at each other and she gently soothes their daughter's, Christy's, dampened cheek.
"Welcome back, daughter." Nadia said with a small smile.
