'A Time To Love & A Time To Die' Sequel To 'The Desire' Series (In Editing)

Fool Me Once... Shame On You... Fool Me Twice... I'll Be Coming For You.....

Star P.O.V

When I received Rebekah call about Kol I felt frozen on the spot I thought I had more time to save him, he didn't deserve to go out like this. I know from the get go Kol and I didn't get on, but over time I've come to learn why his been a jerk. Beneath all that arrogant and selfishness Kol was a good person who felt like an outcast with his siblings, I mean Nik, Elijah and Rebekah had always remained close. So teaming up with Esther and psycho Finn seems like the logical thing in his mind, well that what I would like to think, because from the moment Kol knew that his nephew and niece weren't dead, everything changed, and he was determined to protect them. People change even if you think they would never do so, and Kol was a classic example how that was possible. I tried to wreck my mind on how I could possible stop the hex from continuing, Luna did it so it was possible to stop this happening to Kol. I couldn't waste no more time, there was one person who could tell me of the spell, one person who even in death watched over from the other side.

I left the compound and made my way to the cemetery, Rebekah stated that they were in the Claire tomb trying to find a solution but Kol was barely holding on. I walked towards the tomb where Esther had been bound to, she maybe a vampire now but her knowledge of spells wouldn't have faded. I walked in to see her sitting on the floor gazing at the wall in front of her, there was clear sadness on her face for a moment I felt sorry for her. Then I recalled that everything leading up to this very day was because of her, her children were immortal because of her, Mikael hatred towards Nik was because of her. The reason why the Mikaelson family tree is torn apart is down to her and no one else.

"Oh she returns." Esther spoke snapping me out of my thoughts, she knew how to get under my skin, why do I allow her to do that? "How did the family celebrations go?" She spoke smugly, I wasn't in the mood for this right now I came here for one reason only and that was with the hopes she knew how to break this hex.

"Wonderful." I snapped back at her as she got up from the ground, who would have thought that once upon a time she was all powerful witch, and now just looked at her, she was the one thing she loathed in this world. Nik did a real number on her, and gave her the choice to die as a witch or die a life as an immortal. "Now will you stop with the sarcasm, and tell me about the spell that can remove a hex." She looked at me with her brow arched, of course she didn't like my tone but I didn't give a damn about that, I am trying to correct what her evil son had done. I swear when you look up dysfunctional in the oxford dictionary you will see a family portrait of the Mikaelson beside it.

"Star you and I both know a hex's cannot be removed." Esther was really trying to play me for stupid, I think she tends to forget that I've been around longer then her, I may never embraced my magical side in over a thousand years but any enchantment were always something that interested me.

"That's when you're wrong. A witch called Luna, took off the hex placed upon her sister in 1200, so it's possible." I watched as Esther seemed surprised that I knew that story, because the smirk that had permanently been on her face since I got here had disappeared. "You seems surprised that I knew that." She shook her head and walked pass me, I turned around to face her and she stood there with this stern expression on her face.

"Why should I help one of your little friends? I'm bound to this tomb because of Niklaus—" She began to say but I had to stop her there, she thinks that I actually want to turn to her? Maybe a reality check on how she screwed up her family might change her mind.

"The hex's is on your youngest son, curtsey of your eldest. Your proud prodigy Finn." As sad as it all was with Kol going through the agony that he is, the look on Esther face right now after learning of what Finn had done to Kol was priceless.
