Game Of Survival The Originals (Book Two)

Gaspar Cortez

In Klaus and Kiara's bedroom, Kiara lay on the bed, Kol sat next to her reading Klaus trophy letter collection.

"Well, isn't this the welcome home. Already at the mercy of Niklaus, and just in time to help the rest of us clean up his mess. " Elijah asked joining them at the edge of the room.

"I'm used to it, being his twin and all of that." Kol said.

Klaus bursted into the room with a goblet full of blood as he says "Keep up your ceaseless whining, and I'm sure he will."

"Here. I compelled the housekeeper." Klaus said, as he hold out the goblet to Kol.

Kol stares at it before declining "Next time, a blood bag will be fine. I'm meant to be off the fresh stuff."

"Attempting to be a better man for your wife?" Klaus taunted with amusement.

"I'd rather be with that wife since she and Annie are both going through a difficult phase but since your enemies have returned seeking vengeance, I suppose they ought to be murdered. So remind me, who is this Cortez?" Kol told him.

"His family decimated Belaga." Klaus said.

Kol groaned a short laugh "Ugh! Belaga. That place was hideous."

Elijah smiled happily "Thank you, Kol!"

Klaus looks between Kol and Elijah, both appalled and exasperated by their opinions before he said "No taste. Either of you!"

Kol stands to his feet and grabs the letters before he said "All right, calm down. I know exactly how to find your enemies, as long as our new sister doesn't chafe at me for teaching her a quick spell."

Kol holds up the letters in his hands as he asked "Mind if I burn these?"

Klaus shrugged curiously.

Now in the living room, Kol, Freya, Annabeth, Gia, Kiara and Will were standing next to each other at the coffee table in the upstairs living room, where Kol is starting to burn the letters that Klaus used as trophies. Elijah and Klaus watch solemnly from nearby.

"Mixing the ashes of these letters with your blood, Nik, will show us where your enemies are." Kol explained as he crushes the ashes up with a mortar and pestle, and Freya hands him a gold goblet with Klaus' blood. Kol sprinkles the ashes into the goblet before handing it back to Freya, Annabeth and Kiara. Freya, Annabeth and Kiara pours the ash-blood mixture onto a map of the world, which is pinned down by white candles, as Kol pulls a spell written on parchment out of his jacket pocket and hands it to Freya and Will.

"With feeling now." Kol smirked.

Freya, Annabeth and Kiara laughs and gives him a look as they takes the spell from him. They takes a deep breath before reciting the incantation "Calaste piso tal tras es tros. Calaste piso tal tras es tros."

The blood starts to break apart into eleven small beads, which scatter across the map. Listed are the closest approximations: four total in North America (one near Chicago, Illinois; one in New Orleans, Louisiana; one in Southern California, and one in South-Central Mexico); one is in Southeastern Brazil; three are in Europe (Belgium, Southern Italy, and Western Russia); two in Africa (one in Nigeria; one in South Africa or Mozambique); and one in what looks like South Korea.

"Behold your greatest hits, Klaus. All over the world. But only one is here. Which means the legion of enemies you were worried about is an army of one." Freya commented.

"I assure you, this is your Gaspar Cortez." Kol stated circling the drop of blood over New Orleans.

Kiara go to speak when she got a text from Cami saying "Problem. Rousseau's."
