Raven's fury only grew greater as she relished in making Rebekah suffer. After being flung, side to side, against the metal several times, Rebekah started to groan for Raven to stop.
Raven laughed and pushed with all the force she had, sending Rebekah soaring backwards into the shipping container door, breaking the bolt and busting it wide-open.
Rebekah collapsed on the docks, panting heavily. Her body had been beaten and bruised but Raven didn't stop here. Rebekah Mikaelson had killed Raven, and although it allowed her to regain her powers, Raven was still angry.
Kol started to get up and follow Raven outside as she marched over to Rebekah.
"Fancy a swim?" Raven gestured to the edge of the dock before using her magic to push Rebekah off it and into the water.
An exhausted Rebekah tried to stay afloat whilst Raven's magic weighed her further down.
Raven took delight in Rebekah fighting for her life. She couldn't kill her, she didn't have the white oak stake and she promised Klaus she wouldn't use it but she could still torment Rebekah.
After all, Raven knew as soon as she relieved the pressure on Rebekah, Rebekah would turn to torturing her, making Raven the victim once again.
With every ounce of power Raven emitted from her palms, the water reacted to it. It swirled around Rebekah like a whirlpool, sucking her down to the bottom. Water folded and gushed over her whenever she tried to come up for air.
Kol came up behind Raven and urged for her to stop, that Rebekah had endured enough.
"No, Kol, she killed me. Now I can't kill her but I can make the next two hours excruciatingly long" Raven replied, dunking Rebekah into the water again.
Suddenly, Klaus appeared by her side "Hello luv"
"Klaus!" she threw her arms around him. She felt safe and comforted until she felt a tap on her shoulder.
"Klaus isn't here..." Kol murmured, pulling Raven away "Your hallucinations have started"
She cried, collapsing on the dock "Damon! I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to hurt Stefan"
Kol knelt down beside her, trying to pull her out of the hallucination but he couldn't.
"Please, I didn't mean to kill your brother!" she begged, interacting with Damon in her head.
Rebekah finally managed to crawl out from the water, coughing and spluttering as Raven continued to scream out at her delusions.
"What's happening?" Rebekah screeched as the ground started to rumble beneath them.
Raven's hallucinations were causing her to get distressed and since her magic was still tied to emotion, the world began to suffer. Dark clouds swarmed the sky like a plague with flashes of lightning. Rain lashed down heavily like a whip, as the water crashed against the docks, slowly peeling away the wooden beams holding it together.
With every violent wave that hit, the shipping container tilted until it was hanging onto the dock by a singular plank of wood.
"The dock, Kol" Rebekah screamed, pointing to the wood as it snapped in half.
"Raven, everything you're seeing...isn't real!" Kol yelled helplessly, but Raven didn't listen. The shipping container was going down into the water and taking Raven and Kol with it.
Kol vamped over to Raven, clinging onto her waist "WE HAVE TO GO!"
Snapping out of her hallucination, Raven watched in horror as half of the dock collapsed, sinking the shipping container. Slowly, the vicious water started to subside and the sky cleared, leaving the moon lonely.
Meanwhile,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On a plane from Nevada, roughly 11:10pm
"Due to a ferocious storm in Virginia, we are going to have to land at Richmond International, we are very sorry for any inconvenience" chimed a voice over the tannoy.
"No!" Klaus slammed his fist against his armrest in defeat.
Due to this sudden storm, Klaus would now arrive at Virginia Docks at approximately 12:10am. He sat back in his seat and stared longingly out the airplane window.
"Just hold on Raven" he sighed under his breath.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Raven collapsed with Kol at her side "you're okay" he whispered, stroking her hair.
"What are you doing Kol?" Rebekah snarled "She almost drowned us"
"Yeah and you've sentenced her to death so the least I can do is comfort her" Kol snapped back.
Rebekah crouched down and tilted Raven's face upwards, to look at her "Have fun dying, again" she spat before vamping away.
"Don't listen to her. You're going to be fine, Klaus will be here soon and he'll heal you" Kol assured, resting his head on hers.
Raven stayed silent and closed her eyes.
"Hey, are you listening?" Kol asked, taking her hand "You're going to be fine-" he breathed, looking down at her face "Raven?"
Her heartbeat slowed...thud...thud...gone.
Kol sat with his arms wrapped around her for some time, in the bitter cold until he heard shouting.
"REBEKAH? KOL?" Klaus called out before seeing someone sat on the edge of a broken and battered dock.
"I'm here Raven-" Klaus said crouching down towards her.
"She's gone" Kol murmured, carefully placing Raven's body in Klaus' arms.
For the first time, in so long, Kol witnessed his brother feel utter misery.
Klaus lowered his head against Raven's. A solemn tear welled in his eye and trickled delicately down his cheek and onto Raven's forehead.
"I am sorry, brother" Kol gave his condolences gravely.
"Leave" Klaus ordered and Kol complied.
The pair, Klaus and Raven, sat alone on the dismantled dock under the moonlight.
"That was quite a storm you brewed up, little hybrid. I'm sorry I couldn't get here in time-" he whispered, stroking her hair.
Meanwhile,
Back at the Salvatore Boarding house.
"Have you heard from Raven, Damon?" Stefan asked with concern.
"Nope and I don't want to" Damon fake smiled.
"You can't still be mad at her..." Stefan reasoned.
"I'm not mad" Damon shrugged but it was obvious to Stefan that he was lying.
"Well I'm worried about her. She's alive, Rebekah is her enemy and now, thanks to you, she's living right under her nose" Stefan berates, dialling Raven again.
"She's not answering my calls" Stefan huffed, looking at Damon for his advice.
Damon downed his drink and shrugged, pretending to be unfazed.
