Bar Room in the Abattoir

Elijah and Klaus are inside of the Bar Room where Elijah was last night sorted out the pages that make Celeste's face when Elijah said "There have been many names over the years that mean the same thing, the Italians call them strega, the Yoruba of West Africa call them aje, meaning mother, while here we call them witch but over the centuries vampires have fought them and fought beside them, bedded them and burned them, whether it's an adversary or ally, they have been a force to be reckoned with but here in this city their ancestral magic anchors this city and there has never been an all-powerful witch until Davina.

Klaus rolled his eyes because he knew all of that as well, being around for a thousand years does that, Klaus said "Thanks for the History lesson Elijah but I already knew that but now that you are on the topic of Davina, who is now tucked int safe and sound down the hall under my protection" Elijah had to stop himself from rolling his eyes because he heard the underline of sarcasm, he felt his brother standing right behind him and Klaus said "I got to admit though that your Celeste was quite beautiful and a portent for evil according to our volatile artist in residence" Elijah sighed because it seemed like Davina was saying that with her drawing, Elijah said "Yeah I know Klaus but maybe that Davina is mistaken what she calls evil for power because as you know that Celeste was certainly very powerful in her day" Elijah shook his head, gestured to the pages and said "How is it even possible though? Celeste has been dead for over two hundred now" Elijah continued to look at the pages with Celeste's face on and said "I really don't understand, if Davina is right then why all these sketches now?" Klaus opened his mouth to say something but didn't when both Klaus and Elijah heard a thump from where Davina's room is, Klaus shook his head and said "I don't know either Elijah but to be honest, why does any witch do anything?".

Davina's Room.

Davina was sitting up in the bed when the door opened and she saw the one person she is still angry with, she raised her hand towards Marcel and shoute "Go away!" she sent Marcel flying against the wall behind him, Marcel knew that Davina was still angry with him but at the moment he is worried about her because she hasn't eaten anything, he stood up from where Davina shoved him and said "Come on D, you have to eat something because you haven't had anythint to eat since.." Davina cut him off with an icy glare and said "Do you mean, since your best friend killen mine? Klaus knew what he was doing Marcel and he didn't think about the consequences" Marcel sighed, sat down on the chair next to the bed and said "Davina, I know you think that but he was concerned for you, yeah he shouldn't have done what he did but Klaus only did what he thought was right at the time and to be honest I am so sorry about what happened to your friend Tim" Davina was still glaring at him but she said "I am also sorry that you don't hate Klaus for what he did or want to make him pay for what he has done since he came back here" Marcel sighed because he knew that he had a long way to go before Davina forgives him, he leaned forward to look at Davina and said "Look Davina, I know that what happened is still raw and everything but Klaus will pay for what he did, one way or the other but you got to know that right now, I just want to make peace with you and move forward from this" Davina looked not so convinced and said "Why, so we can be one big happy frankenstein family? You should've thought of that before going along with Klaus's stupid ideas".

Another Room.

Klaus knew that he shouldn't listen to private conversations but he was a curious person, he sighed and said "That's going well, at least she just threw him into the wall once" Elijah sat down on the couch and said "Stop listening to their conversation Niklaus, if that is your way to win the girl's trust, the perhaps poisoning her one true love was not the most splendid idea" Klaus sat down on the chair next to the couch with a long sigh and he said "Elijah, are there any more inopportune deaths you would like to wave in my face?" Elijah smirked at his brother and said "If you give me a month I could get you a list" both of them turned their head when they heard Davina started to cough but it was Klaus that said "Young, old, dead, or alive, witches really are a pain in the ass" Elijah rolled his eyes because if he didn't then he would have to agree with his brother.
