Legacies - Lizzie Saltzman

Part 23 - Lizzie and Josie meet Kai III

I say our bio dad seems always judge me for having my episodes. He never sees the reason why I had it in the first place. He would simply blame it on me.

Josie says our bio dad doesn't let us do anything. He wants to bind us as humans. He let's Hope use offensive magic, advanced magic, dark magic but he never let's any of us use it saying that we are not ready for that kind of magic.

I say but he thinks Hope is. He favours her over everything and when I voice that he makes me the bad person. Anyway, the story how we got here, Josie do you want to start?

Josie says there was a new vampire student named Sebestian at school. He got locked up in the cell by dad as because of his past as a merciless killer and he found him feeding on a person.

I say since he was on human blood, he got inside my head as the amount of vervain injected in him wasn't enough. I did what he said, I freed him, took off on the road in a car with him. I got out of the trance and threatened him of taking him down. But I couldn't do anything as I had no magic left in me, so I had to do what he said. He wanted to spend an eternity with me but laced the wine with his blood without me knowing. I unknowingly drank his blood. I tried to leave but he stopped me and snapped my neck. He brought a girl for me to feed on. I completed the transition and compelled the girl to forget, get the wound healed and go. She did what I asked. Sebestian and I begin to fight and I heard my bio dad coming with his favourite Hope, so I pretended that I was still just a siphon witch. Bio dad killed him while I immobilized him. For 4 months I carried on this ruse of just being a siphon witch because bio dad would have forced me to be on animal blood which I didn't want. I knew that he would look at me as if I am a monster.

Josie says Lizzie narrated the incident to all the students how Sebestian got inside her head despite being vervained. I wanted to feel powerful and strong too like Sebestian was. So, I began practicing offensive, advanced and dark magic in hiding. I continued this for 4 months and no one find out. But I started to have some effects from practicing dark magic. Lizzie eventually find out and told the others about her suspicions.

I say Emma our witch teacher declared that Josie indeed is full of dark magic. Josie freed herself and started preparing for the merge. Our bio dad couldn't do anything. I knew the merge wouldn't happen because of me being dead. My secret would come out and I didn't want it to happen. So, I ran despite Josie's threat of killing students.

Josie says I killed 6 students till Hope and MG brought Lizzie back. Everyone saw the merge didn't happen as there were no alive twins to merge. Lizzie secret came out and she siphoned the dark magic from me.

Uncle Kai says Ric would have been pretty mad when he found out about you being a heretic Lizzie.

I say he was outrageous and started accusing me of being a danger to all the students. I said to him that I am leaving the school and finding my own path. He tried to convince me to stay back and follow the rules but I was so done with him. He made an announcement of banishing both Josie and me from the school. He asked students to caste the vote whether we should stay or not.

Josie says our bio dad just turned his back on us when we needed him. There was a time when Hope Mikaelson was going to school as Hope Marshall and she created a hybrid who ended up killing a girl. At that time he fought for Hope. I thought that he would do the same for us but he didn't.

I say as we were waiting for our taxi, our bio dad came to us with Hope. He says I cannot let you both create anymore problems for us. When I said banish you both, I meant sending you both to somewhere else. He asked Hope to send us to the Prison World. He didn't care for us at all. Because he knew that you would be here and you could harm us but no he still sent us because we are a threat.

Josie says now you know the story uncle Kai

Uncle Kai says Josie whom you killed would stay with you forever, but with time you will learn to cope with it. And Lizzie you are not a monster. You just have some mental health issues but you are not broken. Both of you are not threats for anyone. Josie you just made a mistake. And Lizzie if I was you then I would have also made the same choice.

Don't know what came over to both of us. We were so broken by the betrayal of our bio dad and hearing comforting words from uncle Kai. It was too much for us and we both hugged him.
