The Dark Ember

Keelin and Freya's Wedding!

I went to Davina and Kol's room and saw Davina getting ready, I said "Can I talk to you?" Davina said, "Sure sweetie come in." I sat on her bed and said "I need you to cast this on me, your stronger than I am even with my darkness." I handed her a spell but it was just the words I hand wrote on it. She said, "What does it do?" I said "It helps my sister." she crossed her arms "Emberlyn Rebecka Mikaelson, what does it do?" I said, "Im serious, Aunt Becka told dad that Hope is dying, and he is distraught, this helps to save her, so everyone can be happy again." Davina said, "How does it save her?" I said "Do the spell and find out." she said, "Did you write this yourself?" I said "Maybe." she actually read the words and then said, "If I do this, you'll tell me what it specifically does?" I said "Yes I promise." she said, "then no." I groaned "Fine, ill get someone else to do it."

Kol walked in as I headed for the door Davina said "Don't let her out." he quickly closed the door and leaned against it then said, "Why are we holding our niece hostage?" Davina held up the paper and said "She wants me to cast a spell on her that saves Hope from death." I said "And makes everyone happy, and solves all sorts of problems." she handed him the paper and I sighed and flopped backward on the bed as he read it over knowing he will pick up on it. He said, "Ember I have got to know why you seem to think your death solves lots of problems." Davina said, "So you recognize it?" Kol said "She has tried to get Freya, and Ivy to use it to save someone from death. It says that when the person dies the death gets transferred to her. Hayley forbade it." 

They sat on the bed with me and Kol pulled me into his arms and said "Whats wrong love?" I said "Everything is wrong, I don't have a mother, my sister is gonna die, Freya and Keelin almost canceled the wedding because aunt Freya is scared to have a kid, and it's all my fault. I went through the transformation and all your bones breaking hurts like hell mom was supposed to be there..." Davina said, "Your dad was there though, right?" I said "Speaking of him, yeah he is in our life now but he is more concerned with Hope and I get it, I mean she is dying but where was he when I was dying? He couldn't even pick up a phone to make sure I was ok and I was 10. But to answer your question Aunt Davina, no he wasn't there he showed up at the end, he was too busy with Hope. He is always too busy with Hope, sometimes I feel invisible, Marcel hasn't spoken to me since mom died, I used to be able to talk to Josh but he died. Elijah is a whole other problem, he let mom die but he hasn't even tried to talk to me, he only tried to talk to Hope. You two are never around, but at least you guys talk to me. Becka has her own life to worry about, the only other one besides you two and Hope who has even asked how I've been, not how we've been but how I've been is a boy from school. Kaleb, I like him but don't have the guts to tell him so because what if like everyone else he prefers Hope?"

Davina said, "If he is smart he will realize what an amazing girl you are." Kol said "And if he is smart he will treat you like a queen, as for your father... I don't know how to help, you'd think since our father was horrible to him then he would be a better father. But baby girl like I told you when you were ten, your death is never the answer. And Davina and I will be there to stop you every time you try to end your own life because you are worth so much more than you give yourself credit for. You are not just Hope's little sister or Hope's twin sister, you are not the screw-up, you are not disposable, and you are not a sacrifice for your sister. You are Emberlyn Rebecka Mikaelson and you deserve the world given to you on a platter. You act out cause you are upset, you think your life can be traded for hers because your father is a fool, because your mother was overwhelmed and alone and didn't know how to handle it. But you were not born as her twin to die in her place, you were born her twin to be by her side and because whatever deems if multiples are born decided this family needed both of you."

He sighed "You are amazing and ill be having a word with your father but for now, we have your aunt's wedding to get too, so Davina is gonna help you get ready and then we will go." He kissed my head and left the room. She helped me get ready and we headed to the wedding. I stood between Davina and Marcel who both had their arms around me as we watched the wedding we clapped as the kissed and Hope made the flowers fly. After the wedding as night fell, Hope was dancing with Keelin, Kol and Davina were having a blast and I just watched, and drank champagne because of free booze. But Hope almost fell over making everyone of us rush to her and she said "Id like to make a toast. This has been the best day ever, and you know what? You guys got a thousand years of moments like this one. And being a part of this one really made me feel like I'm part of always and forever too so... Cheers." 

We continued to have a good night and then when we got home Hope said "Will you sleep with me Em?" I took her hand following her to her room as i said "Of course." I was like really drunk because i drank like 3 times the amount Hope did so she made sure i got to her room safely. She laid on her bed and I sat in her chair by the window and as I looked out on the french quarter there was a knock and then dad came in. He said "How do you feel?" Hope said "I think I'm a little buzzed, but Emmy is definitely drunk." Dad said "Is the room right side up?" Hope smiled "Yeah almost." he said "Hmm. Well, i think you better sit up." she sat up and said "I had so much fun today, it was just, you know having our family together and dancing. Though Emmy refused to dance with me..." She glared at me then smiled back at dad as she continued "It was like, for five minutes, i forgot... how crappy mine and my sister's life is."

He sat on the bed and held a hand out for me, so i stumbled over making Hope and I giggle. He grabbed my hand and pulled me down next to my sister as he said "You both certainly seemed happy." Hope said "Yeah... I'm never gonna forget i killed someone. And i know that every full moon will be a reminder." I said "Welcome to my life boat sis, it's a sinking one." i laid my head in her lap as she said "Im really scared to turn. Im just happy you'll be there with me." i looked down as she said "Anyway, did you come in here to make sure the room is right side up, or did you want something?" he grabbed one of our hands and said "No, no, i have everything i need right here." he left the room and we fell asleep cuddled together.
