Elijah is standing in Davina's room in the attic, where he is standing in front of the girl as the two stare at each other. His skin is gray and mottled still from not feeding during the months he was daggered, and he can't help but focus on Davina's pulsing carotid artery as a result of his hunger. Davina seems unfazed. "You're the one they call honorable." 

Elijah smiles. "Yes, that's what they call me. And yet, I followed my brother here to New Orleans to engage in a war. So, I ask you-- does that sound honorable to you?" He questions the girl.

"You don't look well." Davina points out concerned.

"Well, only this morning, I had a mystical dagger embedded in my chest, so I'd say I'm holding myself together quite well. Davina, I believe that you and I have the power to end a war between witches and vampires before it truly begins. I, by keeping my brother in line; you, by behaving like your true self-- not some tool for Marcel or the witches." Elijah states.

Davina narrows her eyes. "And why should I trust you?" She asks.

"Well, for one thing, in spite of a ravenous hunger, I have not tried to take your blood." Elijah responded.

Davina shrugs. "Why not? I'm the only one here." She says with hesitation. 

"Even in my present condition, I would not feed from a child." He answers.

Davina takes a hat pin and pricks her finger with it. A drop of blood clings to the tip of it, and she places the drop on Elijah's lip. He licks the drop of blood off of his lower lip, and after a moment, Elijah's skin returns to it's normal complexion. Davina looks pleased and smiles at him.

Leaning on a wall  watching Elena sit at the window scribbling away into her journal. is the Ghost of Jenna. A small smile graces the woman's face. She couldn't be prouder of her niece. Jenna never blamed Elena for her choice of sleeping with Elijah in fact she was hoping for it even when she was alive as she saw how the man looked at her niece.

If anything Jenna was thankful that Elena saw the ugly truth of the Salvatore's, and is now trying to be a better friend now that she doesn't have them down her ear all the time. 

"How come you always watch over that doppelganger. Why is she so important to you."

A voice brakes out. Turing her head Jenna scoffs annoyed at the vampire who has been following her around since they were in Mystic Falls. "What do you want Fin."

Fin looks at the strawberry blonde, he can't notice how much she reminded him of his Sage when she was human. Shaking his head he looks back at Elena. "Just curious. She's a doppelganger, there's not much special about her other than her blood."

"That just sounds like your sad cause she and her friends killed you." Jenna points out rolling her eyes. Before Fin died, Jenna saw how he plotted to kill his own family. She found it to be horrific...But at the same time she couldn't help but feel sorry for the man. "But to answer your question...she's my niece."

Fin raises a brow in surprise. "Your niece...?"

"Yeah. And another thing. You go after you family again in the after life, I will kill you."

"Why do you care what I do to my family?"

Jenna looks at him dead in the eye with a cold look. "Cause it's the family my niece is now apart of, she is carrying a Mikaelson inside her, and no doubt she will become one herself with the way her and Elijah are." She reply's before walking off bumping shoulders with Fin on purpose.
