"Hello mother! Father!" Finn said with fake excitement as Mikael Mikaelson and Esther Mikaelson waltz into their children's estate. "Hello sweeties!" Esther said with, Finn was sure, fake excitement as well. She made her way to her children individually and gave them each a peck on the cheek, saying "Rebekah, my little girl." she said as she gave her only daughter a kiss. "Hello mama, welcome back" Rebekah gave her mother a weak smile as she moved on to the next child. "Elijah, my oldest." Esther said as she held his face. "Hello mother. You look lovely." He said with a smile, hoping his siblings could do the same. "Finn! my wisest, how are u sweetie? and Kol, still getting into trouble i hope not"
"Of course not, mother." Kol said while Finn just gave her a smile. She then went to give Nik a kiss but he pull back. She retreated her hand away from him. "Niklaus, how are you darling?" she said hoping to get a smile out of him. Her face showed she was trying to pull off being motherly, but her eyes betrayed her immediately. "Fine. And you..... mother?" With not so much as a crack of a smile and so much coldness in his voice, she simply just moved on to the last child which was Harry. "Harry! My baby boy!" She gave him a hug and it took him by surprise to say the least. "Um, Hello mum!" He really didnt know what to do since the last time he saw her was 11 years ago. "Come now Esther" Mikael, their father said. "We haven't got all day" He didn't bother with the hugs and kisses. Harry only then realized that his father and his brother, Nik, were having a "stare-off" with each other, and the whole room could feel it. "Um, how about we move into the living room? Elijah?" Harry asked trying to ease the tension. "Mm-hmm! lets!" Elijah said, catching on to what harry was trying to do. They all walked soundlessly and sat down in to attempt to play nice, but still there was alot of tension in the room, what with Mikael and Esther on one side of the room and the 6 other Mikaelsons on the other side. "So! What do we owe this pleasure too?" Finn asked. "Well, it's been brought to our attention that part of our land has yet to be own by our offspring..." Mkael begin. "Offspring? Do we really mean that little to you, Father? that you can't even call us your children?" Niklaus asked. "Oh, i can call them my children, just not you." Mikael replied. Everyone tensed at the statement. The family knew that Esther deceived Mikael with a neighbor and ended up pregnant with Nik. They just never spoke of it. "Well, I guess i should be happy. The only good thing that ever came out of having you both as parents is that Esther couldn't keep her legs closed to other men. I'm quite satisfied I get to have the pleasure of not having you called me one of your children." Nik said with every inch of hatred in his throat. "Niklaus." Elijah warned, trying to get his family back in order. "No, Elijah. Nik didn't start this. He did." Rebekah, who had just about enough of her parents, told him. "Enough!" Esther said and with a lift of her hand everyone was slammed back into there seats. Except Niklaus, whom she had thrown across the room. Harry Jumped up immediately and ran to his brother's side. '....Wh-what just happened?" He asked quietly. "Dont worry sweetheart, it was just a little spell." Esther answered him. Spell? What spell? Harry thought. Then it clicked for him. "You're a witch.." Harry said, more as a statement then a question. And Esther just smile at him. He knew that they all became vampires by a spell put on them by a witch, he was just never informed that the witch was his own mother. "Of course she's a witch. I wasn't just calling her one for insult, not all the time anyway" Klaus said when her spell begin to wear off and he could move again. "Why are you both here?" Finn asked his parents when the spell wore off him too. Esther then walked to Harry, who stood up to face her dead on. "Harry, you know we must pass our land on to our kids as they get older" Harry was young in human years, but not dumb. He had a clue of what was going on, of why they came. "And as you know, your birthday is coming up as well. You will inherit a village of your own from us" Yeah he knew where this was going. "But you will have to marry first." He knew it. "Marry?" he asked. "Finn is a widow now but he too married at your age. Elijah is engaged." Mikael said finally speaking. "But i'm not married nor engaged." rebekah stated, trying to make a point so her little brother wouldn't have to go though with this. "I have someone in mind of who we'll be selling you to." Her father told her. "Selling me..." Rebekah said under her breath. "But what about Kol and Nik..?" Harry said to his mother. Even though his soul was over a thousand years old, his spirit of the young boy he was never aged. And he really didn't want to get marry at 18 years old. "Well Kol is ...a special case" Kol kills people just for the sake of it. "But you're right. Niklaus, you as well will inherit a village from us but only if you are married." Esther told her sons. "Well then! I guess i wont be inheriting a village from you cause i am not getting married anytime soon." He said getting up and leaving. Harry went to follow his older brother out when his mother called to both of them. "Harold! Niklaus! Maybe i wasn't clear before. You both will do as i say and you both will marry. Am i clear now?" Harry looked at his older brother, who looked at his older brother Elijah, who, in return, nodded to him. "Crystal" was all Klaus said to his mother. "Good. You have three days to go into town and select a woman for each of yourselfs, we've also prepared a few women for your picking. We will put out word that you two will be visiting down in town to have a look." Was the last thing Esther said as she and her husband made their way for the door, leaving their kids behind once more.
