"The Great Evil"
Penelope POV
It's been a few days since we defeated the mummy and got the urn back. Dr. Saltzman decided to have Dorian take the urn away from school so that the students would be safe. So the days have been pretty uneventful since no monsters were attacking the school. To lift the school's spirit Dr. Saltzman announced that we'll be having a prom in a week. I'm trying to debate if I want to ask Hope. I'm just nervous that she's going to say no. Meanwhile since Dorian was away we had a substitute for his class. Our substitute was Ms. Tiggs. She had been teaching us about the Mikaelsons and she said today would be the last day about them. "Alright, today we will be learning about Niklaus Mikaelson." Hope and I've got closer over the days and we have a habit of holding on to each other whenever we need support. I should be used to her touch but every time we touch my skin tingles wherever she touches. So I was surprised when I felt Hope grab my hand.
Why would she need support now? Maybe she just wanted to hold my hand. I smiled at that thought. "Niklaus Mikaelson was the worst out of the Mikaelsons. He killed people for sport and he had fun while doing it. He was the original hybrid but his parents sealed off his werewolf side for more than 500 years." Hope was shaking next to me and I could hear her breathing heavily. I look over to her and say, "Are you okay?" I squeeze her hand. She looks over at me and manages a small smile. She nods and looks back to the front of the classroom. The rest of the class goes like this, the teacher talking about how bad Niklaus Mikaelson was, Hope having weird reactions, and me asking if she's okay. The bell rings and Hope jumps out of her seat. She sprints out the door before I could even blink.
I follow her but I can't really keep up with her. The only way I'm following her is her hair. Her body is out of sight but I see her hair whipping behind her as she runs. I follow her to the front of the school and into the woods. I walk into the woods trying to find her but to no avail. Where the hell did she go? I sigh in frustration and start to walk back towards the school. I stop in a clearing to look around when I hear a low growl. I slowly turn around and I come face to face with amber eyes and white fur. I gasp and stare in awe. Standing before me is a breathtakingly beautiful white wolf. Its fur shakes and shines slightly in the light. Its intelligent amber eyes stare at me.
Before I can even take another breath the wolf lunges at me. I fall backward and land on my back. I feel a heavyweight on my body and I look down into amber eyes. I stare at it for a moment before it reaches its head out and starts to like my face. I laugh and try to escape it. 'Stop. You're getting my face wet." It continues to lick until my face is covered in its saliva. It gets off and I stand up and give it a glare. "Happy now?" I say while wiping off the saliva. The wolf has its tongue hanging out of its mouth and it has a goofy expression. It starts to walk away and I decide to follow it. It leads me to a big bush and it disappears into it. I hear rustling and cracking and then Hope walks out of the bush. I gasp and start to walk backward. "But your a- that's not possible-. unless-" "Relax love. I'm a hybrid." She walks over to me slowly and I let her. "I've been wanting to tell you. I told myself that I would never let someone in but I just feel this pull when I'm around you." She looks down shyly and I cup her jaw and lift her face up. "What do you want to tell me." "You promise you won't leave me? Always and forever right?" I shake my head and say, "I will never leave you. Always and forever.
She takes a deep breath and starts talking. "My name is not Hope Marshall. It's Hope Andrea Mikaelson." My jaw dropped and my mind was reeling with questions. How was she a Mikaelson? How is she related to the Mikaelsons? "My father is Niklaus Mikaelson and Haley Marshall." "But how? Niklaus is a vampire?" "He's a hybrid which means he's half-human. I guess human enough to be able to reproduce." I open my mouth to ask another question but she puts a finger to my mouth and shakes her head. I get the message and shut my mouth.
(Okay so I'm too lazy to write Hope's whole story but basically, it's the same as the original storyline, but instead of being a calm person she became a bloodthirsty monster. after her parents died.)
After she finished explaining everything I grabbed her shoulders and pulled her into a bone-crushing hug. She hugs me back and her fingers are digging into my back. She starts to sob into my neck and I just murmur soft reassurances and I marvel at something. I have the all-powerful Mikaelson tribrid in my arms. Not only that but she's breaking down in my arms. I close my eyes and just hold Hope. Time flew by and when I opened my eyes again it was already dark. I gently shake Hope. "Hope. Wake up." When she doesn't wake I get worried but then I hear soft snores and I realize she's sleeping. I knew she had severe insomnia which means this is probably the first time she's slept in a few days. I shake my head and mutter, "Can't believe I'm about to do this." I swipe my arm under her legs so that I'm holding her bridal style and carry her all the way back to school. Her arms are slung around my neck and her face is in my neck.
Once I get to the school I head straight to our room but before I can make it I'm stopped by Jojo. My heart flutters when I look at her and she's looking at me shyly. "Hey, Penny. I was wondering if you could do me a favor." "Of course darling, let me just put Hope on her bed, and then we can talk." She nods and we walk over to my room. I open the door with magic and lay Hope down. I gesture towards the door and we walk out. I shut the door and I just stare at Josie. "So I was wondering if you could help me with setting up a date that I planned for Landon. I want to ask him to the prom." Annoyance flows through me and I look at her. "You expect me to help you a.k.a my ex to set up a date with her boyfriend a.k.a a useless fire chicken." I scoff and say, "Find somebody else or just ask him casually. Goodnight Jojo." I walk back into the room and slam the door in her face.
"Is everything okay?" A sleepy voice says. Shit, I woke up Hope. Damn it. "No, I'm fine." I feel a tear slip out of my eye and I curse myself. Hope doesn't miss the tear because she pats the bed next to her. "Come sit." I nod and lay next to her. "Want to tell me what's wrong?" "It's just Josie's asking too much of me. I want to move on but it's so hard to when I see her every day. Plus, she just asked me to help set up a date for Landon so she can ask him for the prom. But she can do so much better than that piece of fried chicken." My ranting is interrupted by a snort. I look over at Hope. "I'm sorry, I don't mean to laugh but who is the fried chicken?" "Oh, that's Landon, since he's a phoenix I made a few nicknames for him." She bursts out laughing and I try to keep a serious face but I end up laughing with her.
I smile contently. Hope does things to me. When I'm with her I forget all my worries and I can just be my usual snarky self without having to worry that she won't like it. We sit in comfortable silence before I decide to do something risky. "Hope, will you go to prom with me?" I look at her and she's just staring at me. "I was wondering when you'd ask love." I smile and lay my head on her chest. Her arm is around me pulling me closer to her body and her head is laying on mine. I put my arm around her waist and my sleeve rides up. I mentally curse and try to hide my exposed skin. But I'm not fast enough because Hope grabs my hand and examines it.
"Penelope, what the fuck is this?"
