Raven Anastasia Cromwell ~ The Vampire/Witch hybrid ~ Part 2

Chapter 6 ~ Gather around the fire

"I see you haven't abstained from your method of punishment" Raven mocked, pointing loosely at the Mikaelson coffins.

"I don't fix what isn't broken luv" Klaus admitted with a smirk.

"Rebekah has always hated the daggers. I used them as a way to keep my family safe-" he told before Raven cut him off.

"No, you mean to persecute them for their wrongdoings and your petty disagreements" Raven highlighted.

"I may have used them to settle arguments, yes, but I never daggered my siblings solely on spite" Klaus professed.

"So what was your plan? Bring me down here, show me Rebekah's coffin, tell me a sob story and then suddenly I'll abandon all needs for revenge?" Raven sniggered in disbelief.

"Raven, I am showing you that Rebekah is being duly punished" Klaus yelled in explanation.

"Klaus, I have sat and listened to endless Mikaelson family stories. I know what Rebekah wants out of life. She wants to feel human, fall in love, have a simple life, so whenever you undagger her, in 2 weeks or 600 years, she will seek out that happiness" Raven stated, coming closer to Klaus.

"Killing her, is the only way to ensure she does not find it" she continued, staring deeply into Klaus' eyes.

At first, Klaus thought he might be able to reason with Raven, show her the error of her ways but now he realised how wrong he was.

However, before he had time to act on anything, Katherine vamped behind him, causing Klaus to swivel around abruptly to face her.

Now, with his back to Raven, she reached up to his neck and snapped it.

His body collapsed, sliding down Katherine.

"Get off" Katherine whined, slumping his body on the floor.

"Stop complaining and help me move this thing" Raven ordered picking up the head of the coffin, marked as Rebekah's.

It was only as she lifted the coffin, that she realised the weight of it.

"What's wrong?" questioned Katherine, as she bent down to grab the bottom end.

Raven placed the coffin back down and pried the lock open. The coffin housed a body of a Mikaelson, just not the right one.

"Kol" Raven gasped, kneeling down beside him and reaching over to the dagger in his chest.

"What do you think you're doing?" Katherine berated.

"He's on our side, Katherine, otherwise he wouldn't be daggered" Raven pointed out, pulling the blade from his heart.

Katherine scoured the room and strutted over to the coffin marked for Kol.

"They did a little switch-up" Katherine deduced, busting open his coffin and staring down at Rebekah's desiccating body.

"They wanted us to take the wrong body so that they had extra time to relocate Rebekah" Raven concluded.

She slid Kol's dagger in her pocket and aided Katherine with carrying Rebekah's coffin out.

"Where are we going? I'm in heels, remember?" Katherine complained, trudging along the street, at the foot of the coffin.

"To an abandoned warehouse near the docks. I saw it, in the distance, when I was dying from a werewolf bite" Raven revealed.

"I'm not doing this" Katherine groaned, stopping dead in her tracks and dropping the coffin.

Raven heard Rebekah's body jolt and slump down inside.

"Fine, help me take her to the Boarding house then" Raven negotiated.
