❞You've got a fire inside but your heart's so cold.❞

"MAYBE YOU DIDN'T NOTICE BUT There are clothes hanging outside, use them!"
Looking at him furiously she grabbed a towel from the sink and shooed him away by hitting him on the head.
He cowered and ran outside.
Rory raised her chin high. "That will show you. Have some respect!"
The pain came back and hit her with much force in her stomach making her topple over.
Rebekah shared a concerned look with her and helped her up. "What was that?"
"Stomach ache, it feels like my stomach is on fire." She groaned. "I think I'm going to throw up." She dramatized.
"Are you pregnant?" The blonde screamed throwing the wooden spoon that she held in her hand which she stirred the soup with.
"No! Who would be the dad if I was pregnant, silly?" Aurora nervously laughed.
She stared at her like she had grown two heads. "Klaus of course."
Rory was a bit flustered by the thought and ignored the comment trying to change the subject. "Concentrate on your task!"
"Yes, captain!"

After a while, Aurora was done cleaning the house. When she went outside, the werewolves were dancing, talking, making music and flirting with each other. There was a campfire, and it was decorated with lights that Rory herself had hung up earlier.
She recognized a familiar face and saw Rebekah with the same man she had shooed out of the kitchen with a towel.
She rolled her eyes and saw the blond being pulled towards the man. They started dancing, as soon that she saw the original looking happy she smiled and went to find Hayley.
First she searched between people and then inside. There she was, with a man in one of the rooms where a piano took most of the space.
The strawberry blonde saw the distress on the brunette's face and crossed her arms staring at the man. "Is he troubling you?" Directing the question to hayley.
"No, but the witches have tricked the werewolves by telling them that today their curse would be removed."
The strawberry blonde bit her lip and rubbed her painful stomach. "Something bad is going to happen, am I right?"
"Probably."
Aurora grabbed her phone from her leather jacket and called Elijah.
"Rory?"
"Elijah, somethings going on with the witches."
"Listen to me. Hayley was right, Celeste is back. Niklaus, Rebekah, Hayley. You're all in danger."
Just as Elijah finished his sentence, the doors closed on their own scaring the three.
The pregnant woman tried to open the doors but failed.
"What's going on?" The man asked alerted.
Aurora closed her eyes and breathed out feeling more pain. "Elijah, it's a trap. Hayley didn't make a deal with any witch."
"What?" The man questioned confused.
"Aurora you have to find Rebekah and you stay with her until I get there." The original demanded.
She tried to open the door but they catched on fire. "Ah! Elijah, it's a spell they're trapping us inside."
They found another open door in another room and tried to escape. The door slammed against Rory making her stumble back as she eyed the now burning door.
They tried different rooms, different doors, but every time they stepped into a room a door would close and began to burn.
until they were stuck in one room, ending up back in the same room as before.
Also the ache in her stomach didn't help either, it only got worse until she felt that she couldn't stand anymore.
Out of breath, she held the brunette's arm for support.
The hazel eyed girl turned around worried. "We have to get out of here." She stated.
Aurora gave a sarcastic smile followed by a sarcastic remark. "No, really, I feel like burning to death today, don't you?" She groaned.
Even in such a situation, the strawberry blonde couldn't keep her sarcasms to herself. She always had the need to share it with others.
The man she still doesn't know the name of took the paino's chair and smashed it against the window. Normally, a widow had to be broken now but surprise, surprise.
The fire alarm went off as it entered the room and had Hayley let out a gasp. Everyone started coughing and Aurora started to see everything blurry.
Eventually she wanted to take a step but fell and darkness took over for a moment.
"Rory!"
The oldest original came in and pulled the strawberry blonde over his shoulder and the brunette in his arms speeding outside the house.
When they were outside, Elijah had both laid them on the floor and started asking questions.
"Were's Rebekah and what happened to Rory?"
"I don't know. She went of with one of them. And Aurora just fell but she was in pain, a lot." She coughed.
"I know now why my stomach felt like it was on fire." Rory said grimly.
"Elijah, my friend is still in there."
⚘
Hayley and Aurora were safe at home. The door of the compound opened and they soon heard screaming, deciding they were going to take a look.
They were met with a furious Elijah. He threw two vampires each in one direction and breathed heavily.
"Elijah!" The werewolf warned.
Marcel pursed his lips. "Klaus threw one of his classic temper tantrums, snapped my neck, tried to take one a coven of witches by himself. He got dropped. I don't know where he is or ow to find him."
Elijah was more in control now. "They also have Rebekah."
Marcel's face changed in to fear for his old lover.
The original swallowed and raised his voice again. "Everyone of you will help me find to find them." He pointed to them letting his voice fall into whisper. "I'm going to kill them all."
The love for his family was something the strawberry blonde admired about the original. He was calm, but if someone threatened his family he would do anything for them.
