Luna Mikaelson

The blood of the Four

A  flash of light enters through my eyelids, waking me up. I lift my head. I'm in a cell of some sort, with white walls and a metal door at the other end.
I try to get up, but I'm forced back down by the ropes around my arms and feet. A glance around the room, makes me realize that I'm not alone. To my left is Ruby and to my right is my birth mother.
A squeak from the other end of the room grabs my attention.
Francois walks up to us. "The Four, the pleasure is all mine."
"What do you want from us?" Birth mother asks, pulling at the robes.
"Well that's simple. Your powers." Francois chuckles. The door squeaks again. Four people walk in, and stand behind Francois. Francois snaps his fingers and the four people walk up to us.
A curly haired witch with moka skin sticks a needle into my arm. I bite my tongue to stifle the pain.
Francois begins to walk around to inspect his minions work. He just nods his head as he passes by my spot.
"I don't understand. I thought you wanted us to join your coven," I say.
"Wait  a minute you were working for Francois? Do you not remember when he kidnapped us a couple of months ago?" Ruby asks.
"Not really." I sigh. "He kidnapped me earlier in the day. Then told me that he knew where my birth parents were and lead me to your house. Which by the way you were wrong." I shot daggers at Francois.
"So Ben wasn't your father. Oops," Francois says, covering his mouth with one hand in mockery.
I struggle with the ropes, but stop when I feel the needle pierce deeper into my skin.
"Hold on a minute. We're related?" Ruby turns to me. "But how?"
I turn to look at birth mother, who is looking anywhere put her two daughters. She's unbelievable. If it would be Mom right now she would be plotting away to get her family out of here, not dodging questions. As I look at this women who has my blonde hair, I'm thankful that I was raised by Caroline Forbes-Salvatore-Mikaelson and not her. While my birth mother continues to dodge the question, I try to figure out a way  to get us out of here.
This cell has no windows that I can see and the door is being blocked by two of the witches. Just great.
Wait a minute I'm here with Ruby and her family. What happened to mom and dad?
"Hello?? Is anyone going to answer this poor girl?" Francois points at Ruby. "We're going to be here for a while. I need a bottle of each of your blood for the ritual. Don't worry ladies you won't die. I don't need anymore blood on my hands." Francois chuckles. He looks around nobody else is laughing. "Tough crowd."
"Where are my parents Francois?" I ask.
"Well your mother is right here and I don't actually know where your father is. Scouts honour." He salutes me.
He's really enjoying himself right now. But I don't know why he is so excited. This man is so confusing.
"I mean my actual parents. The one's who raised me." I grinned my teeth in frustration.
"Oh well they've been dealt with. And so has your sister Hope. No need for any mikaelson interruption." Francois walks away from me and in front of Ruby. "Now to answer your question. Yes, you and Luna are half-siblings. Same mother, but different fathers. That is because your mother cheated on your father is that not right Pearl?" Francois looks at birth mother.
"You don't know what he's like." Birth mother glares at Francois.
It looks like Francois pinched a nerve.
Ruby's face just drops at this new revelation.
"Okay Francois enough. Now tell us why you need our blood," I say, changing topics before Ruby finds out more painful truths.
Ruby's my friend and she always will be no matter the relationship I have with our mother.
"The blood of the four can create a witch so powerful if in the wrong hands can end the world. That is why the powers were divided in the Roman Era when a little witch named Silvana almost brought the end of the world with her lack of control. The elders believed that to save Silvana and everyone, they must make the powers dormant. Only the descendants of Silvana would be given the power to control one element. It's been over a century that all four elements were together. Silvana almost died. Do you want the same faith," the old lady squints at Francois.
"I'll take my odds." Francois smirks.
The door opens a man in all black enters the room. "The eclipse has began. You must begin."
The four witches take back their places and remove our needles.
Ouch!
"You can at least give us a bandaid," I groan.
The witch who removed my needles sighs. "You really don't know how your powers work. You can heal each other by touching hands. Even just two witches with the two different elements can heal one another with a single touch."
"How do you supposed we do that? We're tied." Ruby rolls her eyes.
The witches look at Francois. "Do it."
The witches bring Ruby and I's chairs closer together. We inch our finger tips together once our middle finger touch I feel a surge of power go through me. I look at my right arm where the needle was inserted, the wound is completely healed not even a bruise.
"Now let the show begin," Francois chuckles as he takes a seat in a black chair.
Two witches collect our bloods and begin to pour the blood in a black caldron.
"Is it me or do you feel like in an old witch movie?" Ruby asks looking at me.
I laugh.
"Open the roof." Francois announces.
The witches at the door press a button and the roof opens up above us. I look up and see the moon covering the sun.
"When are your parents going to come and save us? They are our only hope," Ruby says.
I look up at the sky and then at the door.
"It's time." Francois beams.
"It looks like we're on our own," I say, wiggling my arms harder, but only getting burns on my arms.
The witches form a circle around Francois and the blonde witch with the caldron begins to chant.
"Quis similis parens natura elementorum destinatum Tumultus"
A light shots from the caldron and into Francois chest.
BAM!
The door breaks open and enters Lizzy, Josie, uncle Elijah and Aunt Rebecca.
