My name is Emberlyn Rebekah Mikaelson, My sister is Hope Andrea Mikaelson, we are 10 minutes apart. Though we are twins, we are the opposites of each other. Hope is strong, good, and caring, she is the light and salvation of the Mikaelson family. I...
I got Klaus and his siblings back to my safe house, safe and sound. Once inside I looked at Klaus who was staring at a picture of the twins from last week at the lake. I said "You're ready to see your little girls? Want me to wake them for you?" Klaus said, "Let's let them sleep." Kol said "What's the holdup? All right, we rescued Nik, we escaped mortal danger why are we not on a private jet to Saint-Tropez? You can catch up on the last five years when we're on our way... I can assure you haven't missed much." Elijah said, "Circumstances have changed we will leave here soon enough." Rebekah said, "We have our nieces to consider." Freya said "Kol has a point. We need to put an ocean between us and Marcel Gerard as soon as possible."
Klaus said "We're not going anywhere today. I want one day of peace with my daughters. Before we uproot them." Freya said, "Any delay is a risk." Klaus said "One day. We're in the middle of nowhere, the house is cloaked. We weren't followed, and I'm not asking!" I noticed the girls walking out of their rooms, Hope was fully dressed in a green dress with leaves on it and black leggings on. Emmy however came straight to me because of all the people in here and tugged on my shirt. She was still wearing her pajamas. I picked her up and she wrapped her arms around my neck and laid her head on my shoulder. I said, "Everybody, look who's awake." Hope said "Hello." Klaus said "Hello." Hope said "Mom, can I go play in the garden, until Em is actually awake?" I said "Yeah. Sure." she walked outside to play.
Klaus came over to me and gently said "Hello Emberlyn." she said "Hi." in this cute shy little voice, she even gave him a little wave. I said "Emmy do you know who this is?" she said "Daddy?" I said "Yeah, daddy came home." he held his hands out to her so she reached for him, making him smile and take her into his arms. Freya came over and said "So she is shy? And Hope is not?" I said, "Yeah, she is shy, and I think it's because she is scared of herself." Elijah said "Scared of herself? How does one become scared of themselves?" I said "Magic, she is stronger than Hope, at first she was outgoing and wild. But we had an accident and now, she keeps her distance from people, she doesn't speak unless spoken to, and she will not for any reason let herself or anyone else take off her bracelet, she refuses to use magic. She won't even be around Hope when I let her practice."
Kol said, "What happened Hayley?" I looked over at my daughter who was quietly talking to her daddy, who I could tell was listening to me and her. I said "Two years ago, while the girls were practicing magic, Hope understood the spell really well, Ember was having problems with it. When Hope went over and tried to help her, she got frustrated and when she gets upset her magic goes haywire. Hope, being so close to her, trying to help got hit with a magic blast and was thrown back making her hit her head on the wall and was out for a few minutes. Hope is completely fine, but Ember was so upset that she hurt her sister, she became scared of herself and terrified to use or be around magic."
(Emberlyn's POV)
When mom told everyone how id hurt Hope a few years ago I thought for sure dad would put me down and none of them would want anything to do with me. Instead, he took me to my room and sat down on my bed sitting me in front of him. He said, "Emberlyn, hurting Hope was an accident, why are you so hard on yourself?" I looked down "Because there is this darkness in me and it's calling to me. When I accidentally hurt Hope, at first I liked the feeling of the magic, of what it could do. I liked that I could do that, but then I saw Hope not moving on the floor and knew I did that and mom was so worried about her and she is my best friend, I could have seriously hurt her or worse killed her. I don't want to hurt people, but the magic is harsh and I can't control it as well as Hope can. I don't understand how mommy can still love me after what I did to my own twin sister."
Dad said "Well, mommy still loves you because you are her daughter, your mom will always love you no matter what you do, as will I and your aunts and your uncles, even your sister. One bad accident does not define your life Emberlyn, you were only 5 years old, currently, you are only 7, you have your entire life ahead of you. You are a witch, you are strong, if you stop practicing magic then you'll be hiding a part of yourself and every little piece of you is so beautiful, that you shouldn't want to hide any side of you." I hugged him and said "I love you daddy." he hugged me back and kissed my head. "I love you too Princess, how about you get dressed and then we go find your sister?"
I nodded and got up and walked into my closet and got dressed in this. (No hat)

I went out of my room after putting my sandals on and said "Mommy can you put my hair in two braids?" she said "Sure, Emmy come sit down." I went and sat on the floor in front of her and she brushed and braided my hair. Once she finished I ran outside stood on the porch and screamed "MARCO!" from the middle of the garden where a picnic table sat I heard Hope scream "POLO!" I took off for the picnic table, when I got there I saw dad and Hope painting. Dad said, "How about we go for a walk in the woods?" Hope and I smiled, we each grabbed his hands and took a walk with him. Dad said "I painted on animal skins, mostly. Bark, cave walls..." I said "You lived in a cave?" he said "I lived in a hovel, all of us crowded into two rooms. It was actually nicer than it sounds. Though your Uncle Kol snored. Loudly, I might add."
Hope said "I bet it was cool, always having other kids to play with." he said "It was cool, actually. But I still felt alone. Different from my siblings. For one thing, I loved art. I used to make my own paints from flowers and berries. These orange ones are the most vibrant." I said, "I get that, sometimes we each feel also since we are complete opposites." Hope smiled "I like orange. Oh, there's a butterfly. I think it's stuck." he said "Yeah, it has a broken wing." Hope took off her bracelet and handed it to dad making me back up and wring my hands together nervously. He noticed and pulled me into his arms as she held her hands to the butterfly and healed it, Hope said "Shh. Don't tell my mom." I said, "She isn't supposed to use magic without permission."
