JADE'S POV
"KAI!" I screamed as I tried to move, though it just pained my body more as it made the hooks in my skin stretch my skin more. The rack was probably the worst part of hell, I had hooks in my body everywhere pulling my skin and causing me immense pain.
HARLEY'S POV
I had just finished getting the children ready for the day and headed downstairs, I have expected to wake up back in the dark place I had gone when I had died. As I made my way into the kitchen Rebekah gave me dirty look as I walked past her grabbing a water bottle. When Klaus walked in I said, "How did Jade die?"
Klaus sighed saying "sit down I'll tell you what Kai told me"
*Flashback third person*
Jade had been feeling uneasy for the past week before her death, seeing things that either wasn't there or weren't true. She and Kai had an amazing day together, going shopping, visiting sites around town, and just spending time together. They had arrived back home and Jade started feeling uneasy again, Kai was bringing in the decorations for the house they had bought when he saw the only person he loved laying lifeless in their living room with a pool of blood around her. Kai was quick to get to her, dropping the bags he was carrying, he tried to stay calm and tried to hold back his tears. She was laying on her side, he rolled her over, seeing the deep scratches on her chest and all over her body. He couldn't hold it together anymore he cried and screamed in agony, he felt physically sick. He held her body close to him as he picked his phone up, trying to call someone, but not knowing who to call. Kai was covered in Jade's blood, Kai felt angry, sad, and broken. Kai decided to call Stefan, "Stefan, she's gone." Stefan confused said, "Who? What's going on?" Kai filled Stefan in on the details of what had happened and how she wasn't coming back. Stefan told his brother who demanded that his daughter be brought back to Mystic Falls to be buried in the family mausoleum. Jade had only been in the mausoleum for a day when the deal came through and Harley woke up.
KAI'S POV
It's been 3 days since Jade died, it's been awful not having her with me. I haven't slept, I haven't eaten, I just want her back. The mausoleum is cold, but it's okay as long as I can stay with her. Her death didn't sit right with me, it didn't sit right with anyone. I feel like Harley has something to do with it, but I don't know how yet. Stefan came to check on me from time to time, so did Klaus. The only time Damon talked to me was to tell me to leave so he could talk to Jade, I refused for him to talk to her, he felt bad for himself, not Jade, he's an awful father but I feel like an awful boyfriend for not saving her and I feel like they blame me, but they should. I was trapped in my own thoughts until I heard Harley's voice call out my name, "Kai," "what?!" I snapped at her. She looked concerned, "Kai, do you maybe want to go in and sit for a bit it's cold in here, maybe we could-," I snapped, "I don't want to go anywhere. I'm staying with Jade, so you can go." She walked over placing her hand on my arm, "Are you sure? Do you want anything, food, maybe?" I shook her hand off, "I'm fine Harley now leave!" I snapped once again. She looked taken aback by my outburst, but I could care less.
HARLEY'S POV
I walked back into the Salvatore's still a little shaken by Kai's snapping, I understood it. He was angry Jade was dead, I just wished I could help him somehow, Kai and I were never close but he did love my best friend and I felt the need to help him. I sat down on the couch beside Klaus, he wrapped his arm around me saying, "Any luck with Kai?" I shook my head, "No, I even offered him food and he didn't want anything. He doesn't want to leave her, he loves her, loved her.
Klaus' POV
I decided to go try to get Kai out of that bloody mausoleum. I felt bad for Kai don't get me wrong, but this wasn't healthy. Jade was my best friend, had been for years and I consider Kai one of my best friends. "Kai, it's me, Klaus," I said looking around, I saw journals and books and random pieces of paper lying around. "What is this?" I asked, "what does it look like!?" He snapped "I'm trying to find a way to get my girlfriend back" "Kai she's gone," I said sitting beside him picking up the journals, spells of how to get people back, and lore on people coming back from the dead across the pages. "Don't say that Klaus," he said playing with Jade's daylight ring he had on a chain wearing it as a necklace "you're going to have to move on at some point," I said placing the journals back down "she died two days ago! I'm sorry I can't move on as fast as you! She was the only person to understand me, she was the only person I felt was my friend, she was the only person I loved! I still love her and I always will." Kai said jumping up and pointing his finger at me "I didn't move on fast from Harley!" "Well it sure seemed like it," he said closing his books "I didn't, it was hard." "Then you should know my pain, Klaus! This is all Harley's fault!" "Harley never asked Jade to save her and neither did I! Why do you think this is Harley's fault?!" I screamed back at him "because you know Jade did it for you and those children!" "Maybe it was just a coincidence!" I said trying to make sense of everything "Klaus how could it be?! Jade dies and Harley wakes up!" "I don't know Kai! I'm trying to help you!" I honestly didn't know what I was trying to do, it made me mad that he blamed Harley for this, but it wasn't my problem that Jade died. "How come you get your wife back, but I can't get my girlfriend back," he said sadly, I was shocked, angry, and confused. He packed up his things and gave a kiss to Jade's plaque "please be out of here by the time I get back," is all he said before leaving. I laid my hand on Jade's plaque before going back into the house.HARLEY'S POV
As Klaus walked back I looked at him hopefully, "Did you fix him?" He shook his head as he walked over sitting beside me, "No, I didn't." I nodded, "Well, what happened? you were out there for a while with him." Klaus sighed, "He's trying to bring her back." I was shocked, "How?" "He's got tons of books on the lore of bringing people back from the dead as well as spellbooks about bringing them back." I nodded, "Do you think he can get her back." He wrapped his arm around me, "I don't know love, but I believe he'll try anything to get her back." I nodded knowing that this was true, everyone knew this to be true. Kai wouldn't let her go that easy.
KAI'S POV
I decided to take a walk in the park to clear my head, it's what Jade and I use to do, I was walking the familiar trail when a woman called out my name, "Kai Parker," I turned around to look at her "who's asking?" "I'm Dahlia, Niklaus' aunt," she said smiling "okay? what does that have to do with me?" "well, I know that your girlfriend has just recently passed away, and I want to make you a deal," She said crossing her arms "how did you know that?" "that doesn't matter, but I can get her back," I looked at her shocked "how? what's the deal?" "well, I heard there's a new Mikaelson baby and I would like to have it," I thought about it, I didn't care. Klaus said it wasn't his problem that Jade died, so it's not my problem what happens to those kids. "so you can bring Jade back?" "yes," she said smiling "I'll do it, there's three of them. I'll make sure you get them, as long as I get Jade in return," "of course, darling, I better get going when I bring Jade back I'll be here for the children" she said as she turned and walked away. I did the same, going back to Jade and to finish my research. Jade, I'll see you soon.
