Author - decided to combine episodes in this chapter. The next chapter I feel like should be something with Rae and Nik and their kids or the original brothers Nik and Elijah playing a board game with Cami after watching that scene in 2x10 with her and Elijah 🤣 Anyway thanks for reading, let me know which one is better.
The four of us ended up outside a storage unit in the middle of the woods. Marcel had even joined us in search of Cami and the stake. Nik grabbed a tree cutting it in half making his own makeshift stake for his father before we told the others to wait outside and we went inside together. Rounding the corner I gasped in honor seeing Mikael holding a bleeding and weak Cami against his chest with the stake to her throat. "You're gonna pay for hurting her."
Mikael carelessly lets go of Cami and drops her to the floor. "Aw, how sweet. The cur whines for its bitch. I'll be sure to drain the rest of her right in front of your eyes, just before you burn."
"We killed you once, Mikael. And we can do it again." I threatened showing him my fangs.
He smirked, pointing the stake at me. "So you've turned that abomination of a witch, boy. Must you keep making others suffer through your torture."
Nik launched up into the air and tackles Mikael onto the ground. Mikael attempts to stab him with the stake but he holds it away from his heart grunting. The pair keep fighting until they ran through a wall. Vamping to Cami's body I could hear her heartbeat still thankfully. She slowly woke up when I called her name. "Cami, Cami, wake up."
"Rae..." She gasped.
"Not as weak as you remember, am I, - Raelyn!" Nik shouted before I heard something was flying at Cami's face. It was the hook blade where I raised my hand quickly snatching it before it could hit her.
Mikael suddenly caught Nik by his arm holding the stake, bending it backward and shoving it into his heart. "Nik....ahhh!" I screamed clutching my heart inside my chest collapsing onto my knees feeling the stake inside my heart too.
"No!" Cami screamed running forward to grab Mikael but he slapped her in the face.
Nik dropped onto the ground and I began panicking seeing his body covered in veins like when Stefan and Damon meant to kill him. Mikael stood over him waiting for him to burst into flames but he didn't. "Why aren't you burning? If you were dead, it would burn. BURN!"
"Davina..." I mumbled under my breath hearing chanting from somewhere else.
Mikael managed to find her. "Is this your doing, little witch? Then, you will undo it! Return the power to the stake!"
Holding my heart I groaned, feeling weaker by the minute seeing my brother running inside grabbing my shoulder scared. "Rae, are you okay?"
"Jacob, get out of here. He will kill you." I warned him not to expect him to come in here like this. I wouldn't let Mikael kill him.
Mikael came back into where we we're seeing my brother and I then his gaze shifted to Cami. "What do you think you're doing?"
Cami sits up and holds the stake in front of her. "Stay the hell away from us! Or, I swear to God, I'll kill you myself."
Mikael was mildly impressed. "You have a warrior's heart. Perhaps I'll keep it as a souvenir."
"Jacob, run..." I gasped in relief once Cami had yanked the stake out of Nik's chest.
My twin didn't move which made Mikael vamp forward snatching him and sinking his fangs into his neck. I almost froze in my place seeing him nearly drain him dry to the point of death. Forcing myself to my feet I raised a hand towards the vampire hunter. "Tenebris anima vestra contundito mortem et conteret spiritum. Frange vitam nolite corde ut sub terra esse, ad tenebras usque in sempiternum -argh!" I grunt when Mikael vamped forward throwing me onto my back heading to kill Cami until Marcel came into the room fighting some punches with him before he got knocked down too.
Mikael pointed the wooden stake Klaus had made at Marcel. "Now, ENOUGH! This night has been a long parade of fools. I'll enjoy klling every last one of you."
Nik gasped quickly, waking up the second before Hayley vamped inside wrapping some chains around his neck, knocking the original onto his back. "Yeah, I wouldn't bet on it."
Moving over to Nik I grasped his forearm in mine needing him for balance even though I was a vampire. The stake had really drained me this time. "It's over, Mikael. You're outnumbered. Are you going to beg for your miserable life?" Everyone else joins our sides smirking at Mikael ready to fight.
Mikael laughs at us. "You think having people makes you strong? It proves how weak you are. Come find me when you don't have fools, women and children fighting your battles." He vamped away and no one dared to follow him.
Slumping my shoulders in relief once he was gone I noticed my brother laying on the ground bleeding harshly. Vamping over to him I grabbed his hands in mine remembering a healing spell. "Asinta mulaf hinto."
He gasped where I saw the wound was slowly healing but his heart was slowly beating. "Rae..."
"Sssh don't talk, J. Just drink this. It's a lot faster." Biting down on my wrist I drew some blood shoving it against his mouth. He slowly drank it seeing his wound and heart returning to normal where I sighed closing my eyes performing a sleep spell and transporting him to Cami's house for safety. "Ad somnum...forgive me Jacob."
Rising to my feet I walked over to Nik who was checking out Cami. He had a hole in his chest where he was bleeding from the stake. "You pulled the stake out in the nick of time. A moment longer, and I would have been done for....including Raelyn for that matter."
Cami responded by placing her hand over the wound. "It's the least I could do for telling you not to kill that bastard the first chance you had."
He whispered, touching the wound on her neck. "Well, he hurt you. For that alone, I will kill him. (You know, in a thousand years, I think it's the first time I've seen him run."
Cami breathed out. "He was still weak."
Hayley approaches us with Marcel. "And, he knew he was outmatched."
Marcel looked around when I sighed running my fingers through my hair. "We checked the perimeter, and he's definitely gone."
Nik smiled rising to his feet wrapping an arm around my waist seeing me sway on my feet. "I appreciate your assistance."
Marcel smiled at him. "Well, hey! You die, I die. Just call me selfish." Laying my head against Nik's chest he picked me up bridal style with me, wrapping my arms around his neck. I slept in his arms.
The few days led up to Hayley wanting to make peace between the werewolves and the vampires. Laying on Nik's bed my entire body was feeling drained still but I had completely healed. Getting up from the bed I used the bathroom seeing blood in the toilet. "You've got to be kidding me!" I grumbled under my breath feeling some pain in my stomach.
"Rae, what's wrong?" Nik vamped into the room placing a hand on my back.
Sniffing through tears I began putting the pieces together. It had been awhile after the girls were born but I honestly thought it was possible to have my period anymore since I was a vampire. "I didn't puke up that blood like before. It came back..."
"What came back, exactly?" He raised a brow at me.
Shifting my gaze up to his I bite my lip figuring he would be weirded out by what I was about to say. "My period, Nik. Apparently since I can have magical children because of your mother's dark magic in my blood it makes me still have the freaking monthly mess."
"Oh my siphon queen, come here." He opened his arms for me, picking me up again carrying me back to the bed, laying down with me for a few hours until I heard Finn's voice downstairs, which wasn't good.
Vamping downstairs even though I felt lazy I held onto the wall for balance over the pain glaring at him. "What the hell are you doing here!"
"You'll see soon enough, Raelyn." He declares.
Marcel stepped over to me eyeing me up and down not finding any wounds on me. "Raelyn, where exactly are you bleeding from? Cause I can smell it I just can't find it."
"I see you're brokering a truce between mongrels and parasites! And just how long do you think that's really going to last? A month? A week? A day? What you don't yet seem to understand is that the only thing that can exist between your two degenerate species is hatred, war, and death." Finn slowly backs away as he talks, until he is technically outside of the compound. Where he slams his hand against the doorway of the entrance, the entire building shakes. "But, I imagine, given a little time confined together, you'll come to see things the way I do."
Klaus is in his bedroom, where he tests the spell against the balcony. His hand burns as well, and after a moment, he yanks his hand away from the barrier. "Raelyn!"
Kol joins us, looking frantic.
"Did he really just trap us all in here?"
Nik responded, getting in his face. "He certainly did. Which means we have a witch problem. You're a witch. Fix it."
Kol shouts back when he tries to leave the room."And what the bloody hell do you want me to do about it?"
"Well, considering the crowd, I think you'll be more motivated to find a solution. After all, I can easily out-wait our brother's antics. You, on the other hand, might find yourself looking rather appetizing to some of our fellow prisoners." Nik snapped back at him, glancing over to me. "
Kol looks panicked and reconsiders. "I'm gonna need some help." It was a few moments before I followed him downstairs I noticed Davina walked up about to touch the barrier until he stopped her. "Careful, careful! It's nasty. Pretty girl to the rescue, eh? You ready?"
Crossing my arms over my chest I watched the pair place their hands up against each other attempting to undo the spell but they jumped backwards. "I assume that means we can leave." Nik appeared beside me about to step up.
"Vincent's boundary is too strong. " Kol said.
Snapping my fingers feeling a burning in my throat when someone was coming around the corner and I gasped vamping up remaining at the edge of the barrier. "Jacob....you have to go. It's too dangerous here."
"You put me in a sleep spell for days, Rae!" He raised his voice clearly angry at me.
"J, listen you can be furious with me later. But now you really really have to go." My fangs popped out and I felt the veins coming out from under my eyes.
Davina glanced between us. "Hold up, Raelyn is this your brother. And he's a siphon like you."
"Yeah I am. Why, what's going on?" He asked the harvest girl, confused.
She raised her hands up against the barrier giving him and I instructions on what we could do to help them get us all out of here before we tear one another apart. "You two can help us by siphoning the spell away long enough to get everyone out. Just place your hands up against mine so you don't get burned. Raelyn, you follow Kol on the other side."
"Okay, okay. Let's go tell Nik." Glancing over my shoulder some of the vampires were coming closer to me where I knew they could smell the blood from my period so I vamped upstairs before they could get any closer.
Nik came into the room placing a hand on my shoulder seeing the terror on my face. "Rae, what's wrong love."
"We need to get out of here before Marcel and his newbie vampires tear me to shreds." Locking my gaze with his, he pulled me into his chest before Kol entered the room. "They can smell my month's blood, Nik. They will try to kill me regardless of being a vampire myself and I can't be around Jacob because the hunger is driving me crazy...I'm scared."
"What Davina, and I can do is cast a destruction spell. It would temporarily neutralize all magical objects in the compound, including the compound itself. If it works, well, then it will give us sixty seconds to escape whilst the boundary is shut down." Kol explained looking in my direction. "Raelyn and Jacob can siphon it alongside us but there's no guarantee that the spell will break. All they can do right now is help us do this spell."
Marcel nodded about to leave. "Alright, alright, that sounds good to me."
Nik sat down at the head of the table with his hands clasped together. "If the spell works, it will suppress all magical objects in the vicinity. That means your rings."
Marcel groans in frustration. "And if we go outside in the sun without our rings, we're dead."
Klaus pointed out. "Unless you wait for nightfall."
"Agh."He looks out toward the courtyard where the vampires are hanging out. "They're also new. They're not going to be able to fight the hunger. We can't wait until nightfall. We're going to have a bloodbath on our hands before we even get close."
Hitting my hands on the table I raised my voice towards him and moaned when I felt some cramps shoot throughout my stomach. "It's either we do this or we let Finn win and right now I am resting the urge to fight against the barrier and drain my twin brother. So I don't care if they are newbie vamps. We are doing this!"
Kol and I were back with the pair placing our hands over the barrier once again. Closing my eyes I couldn't look at my brother because all I could hear was his blood running through his veins. Whipping my head around I heard some of the wolves and vamps fighting with Klaus and Marcel having to hold them back. Mine and Jaocb's hand turned red following their chant before Kol and Davina actually touched hands. Everyone that was a wolf ran outside but when Kol tried to run Nik grabbed him by his jacket throwing him backwards. "Slight change of plans, brother. I no longer have to treat you as anything but the treacherous liar that you truly are."
Kol asked on his back with me vamping over the line beside Nik. "What the bloody hell?"
Klaus asked his brother. "Where is she?"
Kol looks backward at the vampires, who are looking at him hungrily but cannot lunge for him while their daylight rings are neutralized. "Please! They'll kill him!"
Nik snarled at him not caring about the vampires behind him. "Well, he should have thought about that before he betrayed our sister! Rebekah never made it to her new body, did she? And, seeing as you cast the spell and, well, you're you, I'd hardly call it an uncrackable case!"
"Rebekah's fine, Nik!" He angrily starts to walk toward him. Cutting himself off when he burned his hand. "It was a prank, nothing more than anything you lot have done to me, but I bet it's different when it's one of y... aah!"
Nik smirks, raising his tone of voice at him grabbing my hand in his. "Oooh. Barrier's back up. And those vampires look oh-so hungry. Now, I was willing to welcome you back in my home! But you had to return to your petty, selfish jealousies! Well, let's see how well they help you survive when you're stuck in there!"
"Nik, we can't just-" I cut myself short eyeing my brother and the vein on his neck before I vamped away from him and into an empty alleyway. Covering my face in my hands I heard someone vamp beside me where I saw Nik standing above me with a blood bag in his hands.
He bent down on a knee cradling my face in his pa holding it out for me to take it. "Here I managed to hide this from the others before we left the compound."
"No. You take it." I shook my head baring my teeth together, bending my head into my knees feeling another wave of cramps where I honestly missed being pregnant for a brief moment.
He raised a brow at me pushing the open bag up to my lips seeing the veins appearing instantly. "Take it, Rae. You need it more than I."
"What about you though?" I barked back clutching the bag in my fingers knowing I would drink it dry.
His blue eyes met mine pressing his forehead against mine briefly drawing back. "I'll be fine, darling. I have a stronger tolerance than you, sweetheart. Go on, have at it, every drop."
"I almost killed my brother, Nik...I wanted to drink his blood...my twin brother. What should I do?" Shifting my gaze to the bag I drained it within seconds tossing it away flinging my arms around his neck crying into his shoulder.
He moves one arm underneath my legs and the other under my back lifting me up where he rose to his feet. "We will figure that out another day, little Heretic. Now we are going to see our daughters, all three of them." He kissed the crown of my head vaming us somewhere out of the city knowing his chair was near the city limits.
