Okay people let's get this show on the road, last two episodes two days before i go back to the college. i write this on the 4/1/15 let's do this.

I fixed my hair walking barefoot to Elijah's desk I smiled at him when my phone rang it was Cami.

"Cami? what a pleasant surprise."

"Bethany, look I know we don't know each other very well but could you come to the shack I need your help" she sounded shaken

"Okay, erm I'll get there as soon as I can."

"Thank you" she hung up. Just as I was going to say something Hayley came in

"Something's wrong. Jackson and Oliver aren't back yet." she breathed

"But that not possible" I said "Elijah talk to Nik I'm sure the two of you can find them, i will be back soon i have something to take care of" I put some flats on and grabbed my things leaving for the shack.

"Cami?" she came out from the kitchen

"What happened"

"Francesca Carrea, she's bought the shack and is asking about something my uncle had. She basically threaten that if i didn't have the key by tomorrow then I wouldn't have a friend"

"Okay mystery key, threats, deadline. I really don't get why you called me."

"Well you're a witch and i dunno i wasn't thinking properly. Maybe you can hold her off"

"Hold her off? i'm 9 months pregnant."

"Okay well hex her then just do something"

"Cami with the way your Uncle just died you asking me to do the very thing that kills people i doesn't take long for it to take root. By the time you want me to lift it, I couldn't."

"You're right, I was just crazy that's all."

"Look I can't do fully fledge magic cause it might kick-start early labour and trust me I'm not ready, but if you really want that woman off you back for threaten you or whatever I can because I'm literally looking for ammunition to do something."

"I can't believe I'm actually saying this, it's totally not me after what's just happened but if you hexed her I wouldn't mind" I nodded

"Your drinking vervain so I can't compel you to forget saying that. But just so you know you're not the only one that unfortunate human has screwed over. Just go about your business and I'll do my thing." she nodded and i left.

"Hayley where's Elijah" I ask coming back into the compound

"He left half an hour ago to find Jackson and Oliver." she told me and we waited

"Okay seriously how long does it take to find two wolves. Shouldn't  Elijah have called by now." I ask

"Worrying isn't going to help"

"Oh who let you in?!" I whined and I saw Hayley smile a little

"Elijah asked me to be here while he is out."

"Says the crazy witch brought back from the dead" I stood up and started pacing

"You should sit down, relax"

"What  are you now, magician slash zen life coach?" Hayley asked and i grinned

"the treatment of pregnant women has advanced remarkably since i was a nurse, but even i know that high blood pressure is bad for the two of you and the babies especially since your both so close to term." Hayley sat down

"I hate this. I feel completely useless"

"Hayley were not completely useless we can do thing it's just our baby daddy's want us to take the back seat. Which is bull given what's about to start"

"Don't you get it? You're the whole point of this. Klaus and Elijah running all over town, it's all for you. I'm a bit envious"

"Lucky us" I replied

"Is there anything I can get you?" she asks

"How about a moonlight ring?"

"Or someone to drink" I went and stood by the window. Genevieve sighed

"The spell can't be performed till the full moon reaches its apex. And of course I need the stones, which will be here soon enough. Have a little faith" I let out a frustrated noise and left going somewhere else.

"That's it I'm calling him" i dialled Elijah's number and called him he answered

"What's going on? Hayley is getting antsy and so am i" i asked putting him on speaker

"Jackson is fine he's a little tied up right now could we call you back"

"Don't be a git darling you know my temper."

"Oh that doesn't bode well"

"Elijah what is going on?" Hayley asked but then we head and explosion. and then nothing. We walked back to the living room where Genevieve was gone and waited, waited and waited till we heard the door. Jackson was help by Elijah. He went to Hayley while I hugged my husband

"Thank god your safe" I whispered

"I'm fine too thanks for asking" I looked over at Nik and hugged him as well.

"What about the stones?" Hayley wondered

"Scattered across the bed of the Mississippi I imagine" Elijah replied

"Marcel is no fool he knows an empowered werewolf army would mean the end of vampires in New Orleans. The explosion is his way of saying he means to prevent that, for all the good it'll do him."

"Well i did him pretty well didn't it?"

"This is my fault i will find a way to fix it" Jackson groaned trying to get back up.

"No, Jack. You're hurt and no one is blaming you" Hayley soothed

"I'm blaming you" Nik said

"Niklaus!" I scolded

"Those stones are hard to replace. Fortunately I have a backup plan" he walked out and we followed. Francesca walked in with some men.
