The Mikaelson Twins Return

Dying

I walked in as the headless horseman was stalking toward Landon he said "Here me out, you can hear right?" I said "It doesn't have a head Landon, what makes you think it can hear?" but apparently it can because it swung its bone rope at me making me scream out in pain and fall to the ground. He tried to talk his way out and Hope kneeled at my side "You ok?" I lifted my shirt and said "I'm not healing. Don't worry, save him" She said "Em..." I said "Hope, save your boy. Then me ok." the headless horseman threw the artifact over the railing but Hope stopped it from entering the pit. Landon said "Hope. I knew you and Em would find me." Hope said "I just followed the clues you left in that voicemail. You're great at riddles." I said "We should probably add fight training to your coursework, though." she started to fight him and Landon came to my side "Are you ok?" I grimaced in pain "Do I look ok to you?" he said "Actually you look like your dying." I said "And we have a winner." I lifted my shirt to show him, the bone rope ripped out my stomach and it was so damn painful. He said, "Don't you heal?" I said "Usually." Hope said "He won't die. You know sci-fi stuff. Help me. How do I kill him?" Landon said, "Uh, Headless Horseman is more fantasy." I said, "Get to the helpful part." Landon said "In the Tim Burton movie, they defeated him by giving him a bride. That wouldn't be my first choice." 

She said "Me, neither." he kept rambling "In-in the O.G. cartoon, he had a pumpkin head. That... he might keep it with his horse? Correction! He's got it under his cape. Kill the head, and the body dies. That's science faction." I said "You are way too excited nerd boy." she said "Great. One head coming up." the head rolled to us and Landon grabbed it "Oh, God, why is it moist?" she said "Uh, give me, give me." he tossed the head and she impaled it making the headless horseman fall over dead. Landon helped me walk up the stairs as he said "Suck on that, Tim Burton." he sat me down against the wall and looked at my sister, they kissed then she said "Um, okay, um... So I had this entire speech that I practiced with your prismatic hologram. But I know that the only thing you want from me is the truth. And the truth is... I love you. I'm really sorry about all the secrets that I've kept, but I'm... I'm mostly sorry about keeping that one. 'Cause I love you, Landon Kirby." he said "I mean, it wasn't a huge secret, because I love you, too, Hope Mikaelson. And I forgive you for anything that needs it. And I know it looked like I was losing when you got here, but that's just how Phoenix combat looks, so..." they kissed again and then Clarke appeared "Nothing like young love, is there? Shame it has to be so short-lived. You'll find, baby brother, one of our family's worst traits is... well, we're terribly clumsy." 

Hope yelled "No!" as Clarke threw the artifact into the pit causing it to bubble and alarms to sound. Clarke said "Aren't you gonna clap or something? That was a total power move." Landon grabbed the bone rope and swung it snapping Clarke's neck Hope said "Damn. Phoenix combat's no joke." Landon said "Okay. We got to think. We got to figure something out to keep him from rising." Hope said "What do you mean, "him"?" Landon said, "Ooh, we have a lot to catch up on." I said, "Sorry to interrupt but the dying sister is still dying rather painfully I might add." Hope tried to heal me as Landon filled us in but it was no use, I couldn't be healed. She started to cry "I am so sorry Ember, there is only one thing I can think of. Always remember I love you. You are my best friend always and forever." Landon said "Woah, Hope what are you doing?" she kissed my forehead before grabbing both sides of my head, and suddenly everything went black. 

I sat up and saw I was in the woods, I heard a noise so I got up and followed it. Everyone was having a party. Mom, Dad, Elijah, even Jackson was there. I said "Mom?" the four of them looked up at me shocked, I gasped "Mommy!" and ran to hug her. She hugged me tightly as Dad said "Ember what are you doing here?" Elijah said, "Who killed you?" I said "It's a long story but... Hope did." Mom pulled away and let Dad hug me as she said "Did you say Hope killed you?" I said "Yeah, well... I was already dying she just sped up the process." Elijah said, "Well that's some trauma your gonna have to work out." Mom said, "When you wake up you need to drink human blood, complete the transition." I backed away from them "What if I don't want to?" Dad said, "What are you talking about?" I said "I don't think I want to. I don't want to be a tribrid, I don't want to continuously have to fight monsters, I don't want to be alone anymore." Elijah said "What about your sister? Kol? Rebekah? Freya? How would they feel if you just stayed dead?" I said "Hope would be fine, she has Landon and the entire school on her side. As for my aunts and uncle, I really don't think they'd care." Mom said, "Of course they'd care, they love you Emberlyn." 

I scoffed "Right, sure they do. Mom you died, and then everything was about Hope, then you two decided to kill yourselves and now it's been two years and we haven't heard a word from any of them since Dad's funeral. Now Hope is dating a freaking Phoenix, and has friends, and me? All I have is dead parents, abandonment issues, and monsters coming out of a giant black pit that has been pre-warned that I'm dangerous. What's the point in going back to that? What's the point of living?" I slid down the side of a tree, Jackson said "You have a lot Em. And think of everything you could have if you go back." Mom said, "Yeah, you'll miss falling in love, and starting a family of your own." I said, "I don't even know if I can have kids, or even want them." Mom said "I didn't want kids until I got pregnant. In fact, vampires tried to kill me once and it didn't occur to me till after Rebekah saved me, and your dad was pissed off that I wasn't fighting to save myself, I was fighting to save my baby. We didn't know there were two of you until you girls were born." I sighed "Fine I'll go back." Mom and Dad hugged me tightly.
