Hayley was deep in the bayou, within a bootleg health clinic and watching carefully as the doctor, who introduced herself as Paige, conducted an ultrasound.
"Your baby's heart rate is perfect." She spoke up, removing her surgical gloves and disposing of them.
Hayley smiled in return. "I knew it. She's a tough one, like her mom."
Dr Paige chuckled as she handed her a tissue to wipe the gel from her abdomen. Upon sitting up, she instantly noticed Hayley's crescent birthmark.
"That's unique" she noted.
Hayley quickly pulled on her sweater, heading the warning that Klaus had once given her. "We're pretty much done here, right?"
Her nerves relaxed slightly as she lifted her phone to a text from Rebekah asking where she was,
"Your blood pressure is a bit high, I've got something for it." Hayley watched as she walked into the next room, sending a short reply to Rebekah, when the sound of a wolf howling startled her. She stood and made her way to the window to check it out.
A cars headlights were not what Hayley expected to see, her nerves began to grow once again just as Dr Paige reentered the room. "Ahh, you know, I'm-I'm actually not that good with pills."
Dr Paige nodded, and Hayley couldn't help but pick up on her nerves aswell - confirming the worst. "Heh, neither am I, truth be told."
She set the medicine cup upon the table, beginning to prepare something as a group of large men entered the clinic, whispering something to Agnes. At that moment, Hayley turned to see Paige preparing a syringe and upon seeing the fear within Hayley's eyes - she lunged at the girl partially injecting her. Hayley stopped her arm and pushed it away from her, head butting Paige and stabbing the syringe into her neck, causing the doctor to pass out and fall to the floor.
Hayley managed to quickly lock the door as the men in the lobby noticed the commotion and began to run at the door. She frantically began to struggle with the window as the doorknob rattled continuously but by the time they were able to pry the door open, Hayley was already gone.

Davina was sat with a young boy within the church, a boy she had known from school before the troubles of the supernatural world disrupted her education and her life. Klaus could sense the young love in the air, a familiar but distant feeling from a very, very long time ago and that was precisely why he had no inhibitions about ruining the sweet moment.
"You two are absolutely adorable! Warms my heart, it really does. But, I do need a word with the young lady. So, Tim-" He gripped the young man's shoulder, turning him to face him. "Go sit down. Count to one-hundred-thousand."
Davina tensed as Tim followed Klaus' orders, knowing then that he was not an innocent stranger.
"Quietly, now, there's a good boy." Klaus turned back to davina, sitting alongside her.
