I bounced down the stairs following the ruckus and loud noises, finding Klaus throwing things around the room. I ducked as a book almost took my head off.
"Can I help you find something?" Elijah asked and smiled at me "Morning Aaliyah" I smiled back, "Morning Elijah" I said sitting on the couch, as I rubbed my pregnant stomach. " Yes, in fact, I believe you can. I'm looking for a book, about yea big, filled with our mother's most powerful spells. It appears to have been misplaced." Klaus said and I ducked as he threw one that almost took my head off again. Elijah sits at the desk as he says "How very mysterious."
" Indeed. At first, I feared the witches had succeeded in their efforts to obtain it, but, considering their last attempt ended with me relieving a rather large, tattooed gentleman of his hands, I began to wonder if the thief wasn't a bit closer to home. Don't make this harder than it needs to be, brother." Niklaus asked.
"Well, admittedly, I did have a theory that your sudden interest in mother's grimoire was in some way related to whatever foolishness you've been conducting with the Crescent wolves. Therefore, I took it upon myself to carefully place it where naughty little fingers could not pry." Elijah said and winked at me making me smirk, what he meant is that he had me cast a spell to hide it, " And here I thought you, of all people, would understand. I am simply trying to help those wolves! Play Samaritan to the abused. Champion to the underdog, so to speak." Klaus said and I rolled my eyes sighing, before mumbling "How splendidly noble of you."
"Have you ever considered that, like you, I am trying to keep Hayley safe? Using our mother's magic to empower her people so they are capable of protecting her?" Klaus said before adding "We also have Aaliyah with the aid of Celia"
Elijah stood up and walked toward him "Yes, unless, of course, they decide to seek retribution for decades held in exile, and Hayley will find herself in the middle of an uprising. One that will only provoke further violence. You see, you risk turning New Orleans into a war zone, brother. I won't let that happen." I smirked and nodded, "Alls fair in love and war Lijah" I said and he sighed " The drums of war were beating long before we returned. I suggest you use a little less of this--" Klaus said He makes a talking gesture with his hand, " and a little more of these." He points to his ears, and smiles fakely before sitting on the couch across from me Klaus smiled at me and I smiled back.
"Aaliyah, I will be needing your assistance today, go get ready your coming with me today" Elijah said and I nodded and after some help getting up, I went upstairs to get ready. I came downstairs and left with Elijah. "It's a good thing I choose boots" I said as we trudged through the Bayou. We came up to a house on the lake where Elijah stood in the doorway. "Pardon the interruption. I wonder if I might have a quick word with the conspirators of a supposed uprising". Hayley came out and I stood on the dock as watched the waves, soon the sound of a dirt bike came and I turned to Elijah, as their arguing stopped," What the hell?" Jackson says. A man on a motorbike rides into the encampment and stops as the group approach him. " Which one of you is in charge?" The man says
