6 Fruit of the Poisoned Tree

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Then, do me a favor, and don't die on my watch. I'll never hear the end of it." Rebekah says

"You know, when I first met you, I thought you were a real bitch." I say

"What changed your mind?" she asks

"oh nothing, I still think your a bitch. Just thought that we could be bitches together" I joke and she laughs

"Aw, well, that's sweet of you to say. Remember it when I'm gone." she says and I furrow my eyebrows

"Gone? Where are you going?" I ask

"I only came to town to make sure everything was okay with Elijah. He's fine, and he hasn't punished Klaus for daggering him, so... as usual, they'll be thick as thieves, and I'll be left to clean up the mess. It's time for me to fly the coop." she says

"Oh..." feeling awkward, I got to bite the apple in my hand, but I suddenly start to feel woozy  again before I get the chance to eat it.

"What's wrong?" she asks

"I dunno, probably morning sickness..." I shrug but she places her hand on my forehead.

"Oh, you're burning up, actually." she says

When I start to heat up even more, I go and lay on my bed.

"Stop fussing, will you? Elijah will be here any minute." Rebekah says

"I feel like I've been microwaved." I groan which is odd. I had placed a spell that deflected any type of hex or magic that was placed on me. So why was this working. Unless it was because it was applied on Sophie and being linked, the magic won't stop until it consumes my body. And I was to weak to stop the spell.

"Hey! Just because you're carrying a baby doesn't mean you get to act like one! I'm sure my little niece is healing you up as we speak." Rebekah says and I sigh.

Elijah runs in with Sophie. Rebekah stands to greet them, but is appalled when she sees who Elijah has brought with him.

"What the hell is she doing here?" I glare

"I'm trying to help." she says

"Help? You're the reason we're in this bloody mess! Why aren't we unlinked with this witch already, Elijah?" Rebekah says

"Rebekah, let her do what she can." Elijah says

"I may know a way to slow the fever down. But, I'm gonna need some special herbs. I'll text you a list." Sophie says to Rebekah who groans.

 Elijah nods at her in encouragement, and though Rebekah does not look pleased to be being ordered around again, she eventually relents and smiles at them patronizingly

"Fine. Happy to play the fetch girl." Bekah says

Rebekah stomps out of the room, and shoves the washcloth she was using into Elijah's chest as she leaves. 

Night fall had come, when Rebekah returned. I had told everyone to take me and Sophie to the pool so we could cool off. The tattoo on my back had been working it's magic on my body.

I was recovering. But until Sophie left, I couldn't reveal that. The baby would always be fine, because unlike what that bitch Agnes thought, being an archangel and a witch, I was able to create a safe pouch in my womb. 

Whatever harm or magic used against me or the baby wouldn't affect her. So instead, of the baby dying due to blood pressure, it would be me but again I'm immortal and I have only one weakness so I would survive.

But they didn't need to know that. Even if the baby would be fine, the only reason I was doing this was because I couldn't assure her safety. As I said, my body is weak and so are my powers, so if I were to black out, the pouch would break and the actual symptoms of the cursed object would kill her.
