Mikaelson Mansion

Early Afternoon

Kai woke up from a dream where he was in prison world again.

Only this one wasn't really a nightmare. It was almost as if he had missed it a little. There was a slower pace there. He could study his medical texts at his leisure, though they were outdated, some of the information was still relevant. In the dream, he was in his room, waiting. Had he gotten in trouble again? Beau, the former opera singer, now rendered mute, had always looked so sad when he acted up and Lily would yell at him. He wondered where Beau was now. Kai was a little afraid of Nora, but he didn't think Mary Louise or Valerie would ever hurt him. In the dream, he was waiting and hoping one of them would come for him. At least there, he knew what to expect...

Kai heard a tapping at his door and called, "Come in." It was Matt.

"Hey," Matt said.

"Hey, man," Kai said lightly.

Kai grimaced as he rolled over and got up. His backside felt a little warm in places, almost hot. He didn't want to grab his ass in front of Matt, but he did feel a slight sting even now, hours later.

Matt's eyes fell on the bar of soap and the paddle on the nightstand.

"Uh-oh, so it's true! Erik thought you might have been the first to get three-striked. He tried to cheek the paddle drawer, but didn't want to get caught. I mean, the only other other crap in that drawer is birthday candles and toothpicks, so he didn't want to make it obvious he was looking into it. What happened?" Matt asked.

Kai stood and stretched, "I got double crossed by my own stupidity. I thought I was...Basically, my sisters set me up to take the fall. Freya found smokes in my lunch bag and Kol was there to weed out all my lies, so she brought me up here and I think I am gonna find out what the 'full treatment' is tonight."

"Tonight? You mean, it ain't done? Ohhhh," Matt groaned.

"Nah, I called my sister a 'little bitch' and threatened her when I saw she planted the cigarettes. Then, I wouldn't tell Freya what happened, so she said I was going to get it again tonight before bed and even...," Kai cast an eye toward the bar of soap.

"No! Wash out your mouth with soap? That's literally horrible, Kai. Sorry. Why did your sisters turn on you? I mean, they were the ones who rescued you from prison world, right?" Matt pressed.

"Yeah, I don't know, Matt. Rachael's been acting weird and getting on my nerves. Did they really bet against me?" Kai asked quietly.

"Yup. They get the whole pot now. But if they set you up, I wonder if that is considered cheating. Maybe I should say something to the guys?" Matt suggested.

"No, please don't. Just let it go. I already got paddled and honestly, having experienced it, I feel more than a little guilty that I was so quick to throw Rachael under the bus. I think Freya hits harder than Uncle Kol," Kai smiled.
