Alexandra was about to open Davina's door when the compound shook again, but this time it was because of the high winds that started to blow. Alex's eyes widened as she swayed before a startled squeal left her mouth as the winds threw her towards the balcony. Alexandra closed her eyes, ready to hit the floor of the foyer, but no pain came. The winds stopped and Alex opened her eyes to see Elijah holding her closely. He placed her on her two feet and grasped her cheeks, checking her over for any injuries.

"Are you okay?" Elijah asked, his voice full of fear and concern for her well being. Alexandra nodded as she slowly caught her breathe from her near death experience. Elijah signed before Niklaus walked back into the compound, eying the two confused. "We sedated her too heavily."

The three of them moved around the foyer picking up what had fallen from the winds before. Niklaus scoffed. "Well, if this is her sedated, I'd hate to see her otherwise. We all agreed that Davina must be sacrificed. There's no need to let her blow the roof off our heads in the meantime."

Alexandra's eyes widened and she shook her head furiously. "She's not dying!" Alex exclaimed firmly.

"No way! You're not touching her!" Marcel exclaimed walking out of Davina's room. He jumped over the balcony and punched Niklaus straight in the jaw. Alexandra gasped and as Marcel went in for another attack, Elijah raised his hand to stop him.

"Ok. I'll let you have that one." Niklaus said rolling his shoulders, smirking towards the younger vampire.

"Marcel, no one wishes to see Davina come to harm less than I, but there is no scenario here in which we simply wait this out." Elijah stated, his voice full of different emotions. He glanced sideways at Alexandra. "She's going to die." He finished and Alex closed her eyes knowing it's true.

"According to Sophie, the witch who screwed over everybody here." Marcel spat back while shoving Elijah's hand from his chest. Marcel glanced over Alexandra who gave him a look.

"Marcel-" Alexandra started and Marcel raised his hand to her and shook his head.

"Don't say it Alex. Please don't." Marcel begged. Alexandra signed and nodded while taking a step back.

"The harvest was working before it was stopped. If a nonbeliever like Sophie Deveraux can come to have faith that these girls will be resurrected, then I, also, am a believer." Elijah stated and Alexandra looked up at him. He looked at Alexandra and nodded, as if to say everything would be okay.

"I can't do this right now. I'm going to find a way to make sure she doesn't die!" Alexandra exclaimed before turning and leaving the compound before anyone else could stop her. Elijah's eyes followed her in worry but he knew she needed time, to process everything.

Alexandra sat in the attic room of the church. Old grimoires laying in all different places around her. She couldn't find anything, there was nothing that could help them. Alex signed in anger and picked one grimoire up, throwing it across the room. Her phone lit up and she immediately picked it up and placed it to her ear.

"Marcel-" Alexandra started as soon as she answered.

"Have you found anything?" Marcel asked in return, Alex signed.

"There is nothing Marcel, she's going to die." Alex replied, tears now raising in her eyes threatening to fall. Marcel signed in frustration.

"There has to be something Alex." Marcel said, practically begging her to find anything.

"I'm sorry Marcel, the only thing we can do is have faith that she will resurrect. I don't want my sister to die, she's barely had time to live. The harvest was working before Marcel, I believe she will come back." Alexandra spoke softly. Marcel's breathing hitched at her words.
