Rebekah Mikaelson's perfect family reunion was not going to plan, after being derailed by the arrival of Magnus Black and Sapphire, the woman who claimed to be Magnus' mother as well as claiming to be Bella, Kayne and Rose's mother, and now it had been derailed by the fact her brother Klaus was going out of his way to avoid their eldest living brother Elijah following revelations she was forced to make Elijah make and just when she thought nothing could get worse she learned the two loves of her lives Annabella Black and Marcel Gerard were now expecting a baby together.
The baby news surprised Klaus Mikaelson, who considered Marcel as his own kin, in return he surprised both Marcel and Bella by welcoming Bella to the family, and even giving Bella a seat at the faction meetings by violently convincing the witches of New Orleans to make her the new regent.
The original hybrid felt for his sister Rebekah and the pain she must be going through but he also cared deeply for Marcel and wanted both him and the mother of his unborn baby to know he wanted nothing more to play happy families, except of course for the not-so-great uncle Elijah.
Elijah Mikaelson was happy for Marcel to have some happiness in his life and was even happy for Bella to have some happiness but the baby news was far from his concern as he desperately sought out his brother's forgiveness, a thing he may have achieved if Rebekah, Klaus, Marcel and himself did not find themselves awakening at the same time, each of them sat a dining table within a room the three originals instantly recognized was the dining room within the castle in the woods they had once briefly stayed.
"What the bloody hell is going on?" Rebekah asked, as she, Klaus, Elijah, and Marcel, attempted to break out of the chains which had them tied to their chairs, unable to use their strength to break the chains.
"It's okay Rebekah, I know the shackles and chains may lead to the assumption that all of you are hostages which by the way use are, but use is all also my guests." Kayne announced as he walked into the room much to everyone's surprise, ready to torment and torture everyone at his dinner party...

"Let us free of these chains immediately so I can wrap them around your neck and strangle the life right out of you!" Klaus furiously shouted at Kayne, while Rebekah, Elijah, Marcel, and Klaus remained in chains, tied down to chairs within the dining room of the Black castle, all being held hostage by Kayne.
"I killed Sapphire for you lot and how bloody ungrateful you turned out to be...I had plans for my siblings you see, glorious plans and every bloody one of use have torn those plans to shreds so no Niklaus I will not set you free, but I'd love to see you try to take me down considering how easily that so-called supreme took down your siblings." Kayne replied to the man he once claimed to love.
"What is the meaning of this?" Elijah asked the witch.
"Your sister is carrying my child, so I promise not to rip you to shreds if you let me go right now!" Marcel warned the witch.
"Oh of course plead for your own bloody escape and use your unborn child and new family to do so, never mind the family that are her with you now, the same family you would be long dead without!" Rebekah snapped at Marcel, clearly still upset by the news of Bella's pregnancy.
"Yeah, that right there is exactly why you have earned a chair at my table Marcellus." Kayne revealed to him. "Annabella was meant to restore her lost glory but now instead she's pushing forward with motherhood which is of no bloody use to me."
"Why the hell are you as upset about that as I am? Do not tell me you had a thing with Marcel as well as Elijah and Niklaus?" Rebekah questioned him, choosing to ignore Klaus and Elijah's glares for mentioning their names.
"Silence until spoken to!" Kayne shouted, as he lifted his hand, magically forcing Rebekah, Elijah, and Klaus' mouths shut, neither original being able to force their lips open to speak.
"If you are out to harm my child, I will kill you!" Marcel warned the witch, once again.
"Marcellus I am a god not a monster...all I wanted was my family to be reunited but now Bella's got a baby brewing, Rose is a reluctant mess and oh somebody went and killed Magnus again." Kayne replied to the upgraded original. "All I wanted was for my family to be gods again...to be restored again but then you and your family have taken all that from me again!"
"I was told you were the sanest of the siblings clearly those were lies because you are every bit as insane as Rose!" Marcel snapped at him. "Nobody took your family from you, just because they cannot remember a time when you guys claimed to be god means nothing! They are still your family...for now at least."
"I like you Marcellus, you are loyal, trustworthy and most of all honest...my sister Annabella could not ask for a better father to her child and if that is the life, she has chosen then so be it." Kayne admitted to him. "You're not here because of treachery you are here to provide the means for punishment."
Kayne lifted his hand with force once again, this time using his magic to force Marcel's fangs to appear, causing Marcel to scream out in pain, as the originals looked on in silence with expressions of horror on their faces.
As Marcel continued to scream in pain Kayne lifted a chalice from the table and walked over to the upgraded original, placing the chalice under Marcel's fangs, watching with a sinister sense of delight as his venom began dripping into the chalice.
