Nova's POV
It took no time at all to prepare for Hail's funeral. Despite the emptiness I was feeling for letting another person I love die, I knew I couldn't let my guard down since the threat was still near. Regardless of Greta's death, her fascist vampire squad remained. I tried my best to think of other things but it wasn't working, there was too much on my mind, and the Mikaelson siblings were separated again to avoid causing cataclysmic events due to the Hollow remaining in each of them. As hurt as I was in the situation, I knew there was someone who was hurting more, My Heart. Because of the Hollow's magic, Nikky couldn't be here, at her mother's funeral. The next best thing was an astral projection so Vin asked his new lady friend Ivy to do it. I was grateful knowing how much the witches hated Nikky but they decided to do it for Hail and My Heart.
Before the preparations for Hail's funeral, Nikky had told me about why Lijah had done what he did. With his memories gone, he fell in love with a woman named Antoinette who turned out to be the daughter of Greta and the older sister of Roman. That's what he had meant when he had family in that abandoned building. I was so hurt and couldn't believe fate but I knew once he regained his memories all he would feel was pain so I couldn't bring myself to fully hate him after what he did. I got a text from Nikky saying Lijah was still in New Orleans. I begged him not to do anything he would regret but I knew better. Nikky was angry, about all the threats we had faced, all the enemies, for it to have been family was devastating to all of us. Pushing it all from my mind I walked into the study of the manor and overheard Nikky talking to Lijah over the phone and that's when I knew what Nikky had done. When he hung up the phone I walked in with tears pooling in my eyes, "Nikky this isn't right." He looked at me like I was crazy and sped to me so we were nose to nose, Mar who was in the room tried to get in between, "He is the enemy now Novallia, I bite the neck of his current lover and now he wants to have his memories back? He gets no mercy for taking away the mother of my child." I took a deep breath as the tears flowed, "You and I both know that's not what I meant..." He looked at me with regret, picked me up, and sped me to the woods where he was to meet Ivy for his astral projection and apologized for yelling at me. I kissed his cheek accepted his apology and teleported to where Hope and Rey were waiting for me so we could walk the streets of New Orleans for Hail's funeral.
Everyone was late and it was making my blood boil. I held onto Hope's hand and she knew I was angry. I took deep breaths and counted to a million before calming down and continuing to walk with Hope when Rey got a phone call. Hope and I walked on ahead when she started to panic saying something wasn't right. I tried to calm her down when two black SUVs rushed and blocked the road revealing they were Greta's vampires, the new leader going by the name of Emmett. Hope started to get angry and despite Rey asking her to leave she pushed her aside and cast a spell making one SUV burst into flames. She focused on the other one and although half of me wanted her to let them burn Rey called my name so I finally grabbed her and teleported back to the Mikaelson Compound and let her cry in my arms. I whispered nothingness into her ear before going to check up on Rey. She told me Mar and Vin went behind Nikky's back to bring Lijah's memories back but I told her the reason Nikky refused in the first place, we were trying to save Lijah from remembering. We knew how much it was going to kill him once he realized he was the indirect cause of Hail's death. I comforted her when she started to cry and spoke with Nikky who told me what Ivy had warned him about. These cataclysmic events were written in an old journal, all these events lined up led to something that truly meant the Mikaelsons had to remain apart. If this continues then it would bring upon the death of all firstborns. I knew what this meant but I also knew there was a possibility she would have a chance anyway but everyone refused not wanting me to sacrifice myself. Instead, we gathered in the bayou to let Hail's body drift on the river.
