The Mikaelson siblings were currently in the woods, it was not long after they had turned turned into vampires and made their way into France where they had fed from five nobles. Klaus was crouched down on the ground beside the women he had just killed with Kol walked past him placing a hand on his shoulder with a smirk on his lips, " who's ready for the next course?" " you're all filthy gluttons" Finn scoffed with a look of disgust on his face as she glanced around at his family. Kol turned around to face his older brother with a harsh glare and resorted, " and you remain the ever the dullard" Rebekah was crouched down beside a brunette girl admiring her blue dress, " such pretty clothes. What a shame they'll go to waste"
Elijah sighed with a look of annoyance of his face sending her a pointed look, " Rebekah, we have discussed this" the blonde vampire rolled her eyes with an irritated expression on her face folding her arms across her, " No, you've discussed this. None of us had any say in the matter. This lot was traveling somewhere. The cart is full of silks and finery. Five of them, five of us. wherever they were off too why can we not simply go in their stead"
"Masquerade as nobles from a land we do not know and whose customs we cannot begin to understand? Ridiculous" Elijah tried to reason with his sister only for her scoff in disbelief with a determined expression on her face as she pleaded with Elijah, "You saw the castle down the road! It was practically a gala! If this bunch were headed there" she gestured her hand towards the dead five bodies laying on the ground, "Look at them! They're not any better than we are. We could live as they do! At least for a time"
Elijah let out a heavy sigh in exasperation at his little sister as he was about to say something but Rebekah cut him off as she continued speaking, "Think of it! Elijah, we can hide in plain sight. We could live ordinary lives" Elijah frowned with a serious expression on his face as he held up his hand quietening Rebekah, " silence" he used his enchanting hearing to listen in closely to a heartbeat that was beating rapidly from the cart.
Elijah turned around walking towards the cart with his siblings following after him as he lifted up a blanket only for a dark haired man to gasp in fright at the sight of them with a terrified expression on his face as he jumped out of the cart in attempt to escape when he skidded to a stop when Kol and Rebekah appeared in front of him, " Well, aren't you a handsome one?" Rebekah smirked as she eyed him up and down ignoring Kol who groaned with a look of disgust on his face.
"Looks like dessert to me" Kol trailed off with a smirk as he took a couple of steps forward when the man raised his hands in surrender as he glanced around at the siblings, "Wait, wait, wait! I can help you!" He insisted causing Rebekah to frown tilting her head to the side with a curious look on her face, " I am- I am the personal servant to the Count de Martel, and the barriers that you just mentioned...? I was sent to escort these guests to his home for a lengthy stay. I know their customs, as well as the Count's habits. If you mean to pose as the family you've slaughtered here, then you'll need my help to carry out your ruse"
