Trying to love (Elijah Mikaelson)

Chapter 27

That's Sofia on the photo btw

*Amelia's POV*
We walked into a dark factory. Obviously deserted, and I was unable to see. As I kept walking, something caught my foot and I fell.

My fall wasn't too hard, I landed on something soft and cool. As I adjusted my vision, I was greeted by one of the new vampires eyes wide open. His skin, purple, this vampire was dead

"Elijah! Niklaus! It's Jamie, he's dead" I yelped

"Well love, he's not the only one" Klaus replied. I raised my head and scanned the vampire bodies on the floor

"They're all here" I shrugged, stepping over bodies in my high heeled boots. "But who did this?"

"Looks like we've got a vampire member of scooby doo" klaus muttered to Elijah, causing small giggles

"I heard that and this is serious, Sofia has gone" I shot a evil glance to him. Just as I turned around, groups of witches came out every dark crevice of the building.

I watched Elijah and Niklaus hit the ground, yelling in pain. Why wasn't I being affected? I stood there growling

"Stop" I shouted but the carried on, one witch raised her arm and aimed at me, chanting louder and angrier, but I still wasn't affected. The witches looked confused.

I ran over to Elijah to help him up, but he was only pinned to the ground again. And when I turned my head, there was something I didn't expect to see

Sofia's body laid in the hands of a small girl, teenage years. She was covered in blood, they had killed her. And from my senses, they killed her recently.

"stop" I repeated, the chanting getting into my ears and prodding at my brain. "STOP" at the top of my voice I shouted again and again, until the witches were flung against the wall. "Oh my god" I whispered to myself.

Elijah and Niklaus pulled themselves up "Elijah, you get Sofia's body" a tear fell down my cheek "I'll get you" I walked up to a witch, she looked powerful. I pulled her head to the side and whispered in her ear "I need some answers"and then I used my vamp speed to leave.

Flashback
*Aleisha's POV* (Amelia's mother) 1846 England

I sat in my small home, awaiting for my husbands return. My stomach had grown immensely and immaculately, holding our future daughter. I knew my baby was a girl, I could feel her.

"I'm back" Oscar shouted from the door

"Have you been in the pub again?" I asked strictly, knowing the answer.

"No, stop doubting my ability to go out and get a job, I've been working dear" his smile widened

"Oscar" I began "I am a powerful witch, I did a simple location spell and it's not hard to smell the alcohol on your breath" I slapped him "stupid man, I swear if you have been gambling against Andrew I'll..."

"...you'll what?" He grabbed my hand and squoze until I yelped in pain. My power tingled at the tips of my fingers and pushed him until he knelt on the floor

"We are in so much debt, Oscar and you are stupid enough to bury us six feet under! You don't even have a job, you lost you gardening job and now we are as good as dead" I sharply said

"Can't you do any of that hocus pocus and magic up some money?"he asked, getting over the burning sensation in his head

"Oscar! You know I can't do that" I huffed. Being a witch has it's many perks, I exchange my services for money that we use to pay of our debts. However, the town searches for witches to burn at the stake, so I needed to be careful.

Just as I was about to sit down, my stomach began to hurt.

"Agh" I yelped in pain

"Aleisha?" Oscar stood up and rushed to my side "Aleisha are you okay?" I shook my head in reply, unable to speak

"The baby" I squoze out the words "it's coming

-

Three days later, I had finally gotten used to her company. I was absolutely deliriously happy. I held my baby girl in my arms and heard a horse's neigh from outside.

I carried her to the window to peek outside at the large carriage carrying a man, Andrew, who we owe so much money to due to loans and my husbands petty gambling and his maid, I believe her name is Eleanor, also a witch, only younger.

My baby began to cry, I held her close to my chest. My heart beat soothed her and she quietened down for a while until the pair barged through the door.

"I believe you are overdue on payments" he started as soon as he crossed the threshold

"I beg you sir please give us til sunrise, my husband has got a job and we will have your money" I pleaded

"I believe this is your third extension, Aleisha I do believe myself to be a generous man and I've been more than generous enough to your petty husband, and It's time for me to get what I want" he turned around, smashing the pot ware in the kitchen. His eyes then laid on my baby "I didn't know you had given birth, she's beautiful and a fine payment" he smiled

"If you think you can touch her, you can go to hell" I held her close to my body, tightly so he could not take her

"I'm afraid you have no choice in the matter" he replied maliciously. I raised my arm and started chanting

"Eleanor!"he shouted, his brain turning to mush on the spot. She reflexed, mirroring my chanting. It this time aimed at me. My back slid down the wall until I was perched on the floor, weakened.

He walked up and pried the baby out of my arms "no" I muttered "please no" I cried. I felt the air cool my arms where she used to lay, she now lay in the arms of Eleanor, she had a smug look on her face.

"Her name?" She smiled

"Amelia" I closed my eyes, turning my head side to side to rid the pain "her name is Amelia"

Before I knew it, she had disappeared through the door and I was in the clutches of Andrew "what are you doing?!" I yelped

"You're a witch, you could cause some serious damage to me and my family, I'm taking you to your death"

Andrew then dragged me to be burnt at the stake. No word to my family
