The Lost Potter | Klaus Mikaelson

dangerous liaisons

"I thought we were past that"

Elena: I don't know. I'm guessing she has a couple connections in the witching community. Elijah said that she wants to live in peace with her family, including Klaus.

Stefan: She was supposed to be the weapon to help us kill Klaus.

Elena: Well, not anymore...at least not according to Elijah.

Stefan: That coffin was the only thing stopping Klaus from tearing us to shreds.

Damon: Anyone else feeling a little used right now?

Elena: Look, Elijah promised me that his family wouldn't hurt any of us.

[The doorbell rings.]

Elena: I believe him.

"Because Elijah never breaks his promises"

[Elena goes and opens the door. No one is there, but on the doormat is an envelope with an ornately-handwritten "Elena Gilbert" on the front. She picks it up, closes the door, and turns around. Damon and Stefan are in the lobby near her.]

Damon: What is it?

[She opens the envelope and removes a card.]

Elena: It's an invitation. "Please join the Mikaelson Family, this evening at seven o'clock. For dancing, cocktails and celebration."

Stefan: Who the hell are the Mikaelsons?

Elena: The Original Family.

Damon: It's not bad enough they're moving into town, now they want a housewarming gift?

[She turns the card over and sees there's writing on the back.]

Elena: Wait, there's a note on the back. "Elena, I think it's time that we finally meet, Esther."

"That can't be good"

[Music is playing. Rebekah is having her nails polished by an assistant. Kol is standing before a full-length mirror wearing a black evening suit while a tailor adjusts it. Finn and Elijah are also standing in the room preparing for the ball.]

Kol: Rebekah? Tell me how handsome I am.

Rebekah: Ah Kol, you know I can't be compelled.

Everyone laughs at that while Kol pouts.

[Finn grins. The door opens and Klaus walks in and up to Rebekah.]

Klaus: You went after Elena? What is wrong with you?!

Rebekah: Here we go.

Klaus: Do you want another dagger in your heart?

Kol: Again with the dagger threats? Don't you have any other tricks?

Klaus: Oh, go back to staring at yourself.

Kol: And who are you, my father?

Klaus: No, Kol, but you're in my house.

Kol: Then perhaps we should go outside.
