Into The Spider-Verse (Hosie) Book 1

Downfall

"Look for the last time I didn't kill Tyler Lockwood" Hope told them again. It felt like the millionth time.

She was sitting in a blue room facing a huge window. The chair was a little uncomfortable and unstable while her hands were cuffed on the table. She could easily break out with her super strength but chose to play by the rules.

"So, explain to me why you were with his dead body?" Alaric asked.

"Well, did you happen to see the whole video that was live streamed? It was meant to be a confrontation" Hope answered.

"Which makes you more likely to kill him if he murdered your parents sounds like a good motive to me" Dorian said.

"And here I thought we were doing the good cop bad cop routine. Look, you searched my bags and didn't find a weapon. The shot was from behind not in front" Hope told them "I know I am not a scientist but I believe that's not possible."

"You could have moved and tossed the gun in the lake; it was a bridge after all," Alaric explained.

"Just a theory, though why would I move when I could just do it from the front? Look while I'm in here the person who did it is out there probably planning to do more" Hope told them.

"I let you into my house," Alaric said, a little disgusted. "I should have known all you Mikaelson's are the same" What's that supposed to mean?

"Well your daughter thinks I'm lovely" Hope said spitefully. "Very lovely."

"You little-!" Alaric shouts but is cut off.

"Where the hell is my niece? I swear if you don't let me see my niece I will remove my heels and shove it right up your ass!" Rebekah spoke.

"I don't think she's kidding I would do as she says if I were you" Hope told them and they scoffed and walked away.

"You have no right to keep a minor in there without a parental knowledge which you didn't have because I would have called a lawyer before you could even talk" Rebekah told Alaric.

"Look, you need to calm down, Rebekah," Alaric said.

"Calm down! Someone hold my earrings I'm about to beat this little shit ass" Rebekah told him adjusting her earrings.

"Okay, okay she's in the room you can talk to her all of you" Alaric surrenders

"And for the record it's Mrs. Mikaelson to you" Rebekah told him.

"Good to see you Mikaelson's haven't changed a bit" Alaric muttered.

"Are we still sour about Nik stealing your girlfriend or is it the fact I broke your nose twice?" Rebekah asked but it was more like a statement.

"Okay well let's go see Hope before you break his nose again" MG spoke while Kaleb agreed with him.

They went into the room where Hope's being held. When Hope saw them she was filled with joy but that changed when she saw their expression. It was full of worry and she felt bad that she stressed them out.

"Well you look tired" Hope broke the silence that was killing her.

"Really Hope seriously how could this get out of hand I thought you were just going to confront him" Rebekah said frustrated could be heard in her tone.

"I was but as you can see it didn't go as planned" Hope told her and she received a glare from her aunt which made her back down "Sorry."

"Look the good news is that they don't have enough evidence to put you as the killer so they have forty eight hours to figure it out and considering you're innocent they won't find anything" Rebekah explained.
