Era Mikaelson - Kai Parker

Chapter 6: celebrating the dead when they are in fact living

To say this funeral is most likely going to be a disaster is an understatement from what I've seen there are only a few ways it can go and most of them aren't very good if I'm going to be honest. As thew hours get closer the more clear everything becomes more clear as people make choices paths get chosen and Lizzie is spearheading those choices at the moment.

Looking at the clock I realized it was almost 5 my dress was still in Hopes room

"What are you doing here" I heard Alaric ask Kai must have been here

"am I not allowed to come to my own nieces funeral Im honestly heart broken about the entire situation" Kais voice rang in my ears from down the hall.

"No not when half of this is your fault and you tried to kill them and you killed their mother and that entire side of the family" Alaric said what sounded like a back hit a wall

"Alaric" I said walking into the hall to see him pressing Kai against the wall.

"Oh look its Erie, Hiya Ere" Kai said and Alaric stepped back and looked to me making his way over he grabbed my arm and dragged me into the closest room.

"Why is he here i told you he wasn't allowed on school grounds"

"Thats not what you said" I said and his scowl only grew "He can only kill someone if I say he can, he's honestly not really a threat at the moment, and plus it already seems odd that none of your family is here to say goodbye to Lizzie" I said.

"What was I suppose to do tell everyone she's dead" Alaric asked.

"yes, thats exactly what you should've done" I said.

"I cant just tell everyone she's dead"

"Why? you act as if this wasn't a normal thing 20 years ago, you are literally the only one here who knows the protocol"

"Becasue she's my daughter and she's not"

"To the world at the moment she is" I said walking out of the room to see Kai.

"It's a miracle theyre all still alive" I said walking past him.

"Bad day" he asked following me  down the hallway.

"you have no idea Lizzie's funeral looks like Tammy Faye should be running it" I replied he chuckled at my answer  "Shit i gotta change come on" I said leading him to Hopes room.

"You know the last time I was in here it was also Melissas room"

"Yeah well not anymore since Josie killled her then apparently i guess at some point brought her back to life" I said starting to get changed "Turn around or something dont be a creep" it probably wasn't the best idea for me to start stripping in front of him but I really dont care at the moment and I'm in a rush plus its not like I could just leave the Psycho outside sad to say really but Alaric might jump him again.

"Is this room like safe can we talk you know freely in here?" he asked looking through Hopes side of the room.

"Yeah" I pulled my outfit off the hanger i already had someone come and steam it so it was freshly steamed

a gasp left his mouth from behind me "Is this you?" he asked his finger on a picture I looked back at him the picture he was pointing to was me on a runway I was 6 it was my first fashion week the only reason I did was becasue my aunt rebekah who I was with was friends with the designer and thought I was adorable and she needed someone to walk out with its funny though becasue its become somewhat of a tradition i always walk out with her now. "what are you wearing?"

"Fashion that was my first fashion week when I was 6 I walk with her every year now its like a statement thing to see how things change and the passage of time"
