It's the next day and Dahlia had gotten to Josephine LaRue, possessed her body to come all the way to the Compound and bled to death from her neck.

A witch that I had mentored had the Norwegian soil we need and she is on her way here. Now for the hardest part. The blood of the person she loves the most.

At the beginning I truly thought it was Freya but after seeing their interaction towards one another, I come to the conclusion that it's not her. So if it's not Freya then it has to be someone else but I'm not sure who and my only way of figuring out who it is, I have to get inside Dahlia's head. And that is where the problem begins.

I walk into the room after taking a shower to see Nik still at his canvas, madly painting away. I sigh and start to walk towards him. I take the brush out of his hands making him quickly turn around to face me.

"That is enough painting for you. It is time for you to let your emotions out." I said as I pull him towards the bed.

"Are you studying to be a therapist as well?" He asked me and I just roll my eyes at him. "I do not have time for these talks. We can do this another day when my daughter is not being threatened by an thousand year old witch." Nik complained.

"And I agree with you on that. But you need to take a break at some point so that you can think clearly when coming up with a plan to kill her." I said then sat on his lap so he would stop trying to leave this conversation. "So, how are you feeling?"

"I feel like I want to kill every living soul I see." Nik said mockingly. I stare at him with a blank face waiting for a better answer. "I feel like everything I do is not good enough. Every plan I have fails and just keeps reminding me that I could actually lose my daughter. I don't feel bad about killing Mikael for the second time. More annoyed that he didn't stay dead the first time but you can't get what you want all the time. I don't feel bad about taking Mikael away from Freya. I could care less. And now I feel like if I don't save Hope from Dahlia, I'm probably the worst father in the world."

I sit there staring at him as he rants about his feelings. Once he was done I wrap my arms around his neck and he did the same around my waist. I didn't know his feelings were this deep.

"I have a plan." I whispered into his ear. He pulls away from me and looks at me expectedly. "We already have Viking ash as part of the ingredient. The soil is on its way as well, but the last one is having a bit of difficulty." I talked lowly.

"How so?" Nik asked me.

"At first I thought it was Freya that Dahlia truly loved but seeing their interaction made me think otherwise. Freya is not the last ingredient." I explained.

"Then who is?"

"That's the problem. I don't know. And for to find out I would have to get inside Dahlia head then find out who that pers—" I cut myself off as something clicked in my head. Of course.

"What is it, love?" Nik asked me.

"I know who it is."

(Wait a fucking minute. I'm watching the episode as I write these chapters but this bitch did not just kill Aiden. I know Kol is like my future husband #2 but Aiden was going to be hubby #3. This bitch is about to geeeeeeeeeet iiiiiiiiiiitt.)

Klaus got a call from Elijah to meet up with him and Hayley at Rousseau(I am not sure if they are actually there.) and not long after he called me to come down there as well.

"Freya objected to us making a single weapon because it spoiled her plan." Klaus said as he paces back and forth.

This argument has been going on and on with Elijah trying to force Nik to trust Freya and Nik putting his foot down and telling his family to just follow his commands.

"Klaus!" I hear Jackson yell out making Elijah and Hayley look behind them. "Klaus!" Jackson yells again and I see him speed walk inside the room carrying a dead body on his shoulder with Josh not to far from him.

"Oh my, god." Hayley said as she rushed to their side. "What happened?" She asked Jackson.

"Klaus made Aiden spy on us. Instead he told me everything. So you killed him." Jackson said.

What the bloody hell? I was with Nik the whole day. There is no way he killed Aiden. But since everyone has their feelings and other mumbo jumbo, here's how things gonna go. Jackson accuses Klaus. Hayley is married to him so she will take his side. And poor Elijah still has his hidden feelings for Hayley so he will stand by her decision. This is a losing battle right now.

"You killed him. One of the wolves sworn to protect our daughter." Hayley said with hidden disappointment in her voice.

Nik didn't say a single word. He stares at all of them who were giving him the look of hate and he too knew that they were already convinced. "So what if I did?" Hayley eyes got bigger and she glanced at Elijah. "This is what happens to anyone who dares cross me." Nik yelled out putting on the show they all want to hear.

"Just give us the word, Jackson." A werewolf said.

"Please do. I will be so glad to rip your intestines out your body and force you to eat them." I threatened.

"Perhaps none of this would have happened if he had a real Alpha." Nik said.

That triggered Jackson to step up to Nik and punch him square in the face. Nik pushed him back and Hayley sped forward pushing Nik away but he shoved her to the side focusing his attention towards Jackson. Elijah sped in the middle and separated the Nik and Jackson from each other. "Do you wish to die?" Elijah asked Jackson.

I walked over to Nik and wrap an arm around him. This slightly calmed him down but he was still aggravated.

Hayley sped to Elijah and pushed him away from Jackson. "You wanna kill me too, Elijah?" Hayley asked him.

"If you come at him... you come at me." Elijah said standing in front of Nik defensively.

"You lot should make better use of your time. I suggest burying your dead." Klaus said.

"Get out." Hayley yells getting frustrated with him.

"Niklaus, you mentions a plan. I recommend you begin. Hayley and Hope are safe for the time being. They're not going anywhere." Elijah said.

"Shan't be long." He said while putting his fingers through mine. He pulls away from Elijah and we walked side by side to start our plan.

Me and Klaus came back to the Compound and into our room when we saw Elijah standing in front of Klaus' canvas. He holds up the brush with dried paint on the end. "You put them in the paint. Father's ashes." He puts the brush down before looking at me. "The earth from sacred ground all hidden in plain sight."

Yes, the ingredients were hidden. I have no clue on what he is trying to point out or why he is even here. "What are you doing here? You're supposed to be guarding Hayley." Klaus asked him.

"She's gone." Elijah said. Gone. She took Hope and ran away. No doubt persuaded by that country hillbilly Alpha of hers. "She and Jackson took Hope and the kids and you will not find them, brother." Elijah said.

"She took my kids?" I said lowly and I too can hear the venom in my voice.

Klaus took a step closer to Elijah. "You helped Hayley escape... with my children?" He asked him once they were face to face.

"Well, someone had to protect these children." Elijah comments.

Klaus got really angry and vamp speed Elijah outside to the balcony we're he almost pushed him over. "How dare you!!" He screams at Elijah.

Elijah pushed Klaus off him and into a table breaking it as he falls to the floor. Klaus immediately gets up and holds Elijah down. "I'm a hybrid, Elijah. Why provoke a fight you know you cannot win." Klaus said.

Elijah didn't say anything. He pulls out this dagger and shoved it inside Klaus heart. Nik gasp out in pain and his hold on Elijah loosens. I shove Elijah out the way and quickly grabbed the dagger. Just as I was about to pull it out I get stabbed in the back and I can feel another dagger in my heart. I gasp in pain as me and Nik stare at each other. "Daggers don't work on me though," I barely whispered out as it was starting to take effect.

"They don't. But this one was fused with the Red Camellia." Elijah said. How? That flower can only be found in two places. I made sure it could never be found.

We dropped to our knees and I see my skin growing grey with veins right after it. I look to my left and Klaus looked to his right and we see Rebekah walk in as she watch us desiccate. Not soon after Freya is behind her with happiness in her eyes but she doesn't show it on her face.

"I... will... kill... you... all" I fell sideways as I succumb to darkness.
