Whit the plan all thought out and ready to be set in motion, the supersquad started preparing everything they needed. The plan was to summon (or attempt to summon) the harbinger, which they were of course doing in the middle of the woods, deciding on this as a way to avoid putting the school in posible danger. After summoning it, a black candle would be lit in order to anulate any magical energy in the vicinity. And then, the interrogation would start, and hopefully, they would get some answers.

Hope was currently looking through her box of magical artifacts in order to find the candle they needed, while the boys were studying the plan and getting ready to start. Right when she found the much needed candle, she heard a knock on her door.

"Come in," the auburnett said

"Hey, I just wanted to check in and make sure your ready," Alaric, who was carrying his crossbow as a precaution (As he had said), had knocked on the door and made its way into her room in order to "check up" on her, hope however, could see right trough it. She knew he wanted to make sure she wouldn't do anything reckless .

"Doctor Saltzman, i'm fine. There's no need to worry, i'm not gonna go all mikaelson on this thing again," Hope stated, feeling annoyed by the assumption that she couldn't control herself, she could keep it together, as long as this thing didn't try anything stupid, there was no need for things to escalate.

She stood up and handed Doctor Saltzman the candle, seconds later, he spoke

"I really hope you mean that. We need answers, so we really can't compromise this, ok? I'm heading down there, im gonna check if the rest are ready to go, we meet at the mill in 5," Alaric made his way out of the room and down the hall leaving the tribrid to rethink on a few things.

After she managed to put her thoughts in check, Hope made her way out of the school and to the mill, which is where the last meeting was taking place before everything went down. Everyone was there except for Josie, who had agreed to stay in the side lines until she felt better. After everything was clear, and everyone understood their part, they headed into the woods.

After about a 5 minute walk, they arrived and started putting everything in place for the summoning spell.

"Ok, me and Hope will start the spell. As soon as this thing appears, you mg, light the candle, alright? Everyone else, keep watch and stay alert,"Lizzie stated

"Alright," Jed

"Works for me," Kaleb

"Be careful, girls," Alaric said, slightly worried

the blonde made her way to the middle of the circle they had made. The tribrid, taking a step into it as well, getting ready to start the spell.

"You ready?," Lizzie asked while looking at the tribrid.

"Always, give me your hands," Lizzie and hope held hands, they were about to begin. "It's a strong spell. If at any moment you feel pain or any type of discomfort, just let go, and i'll handle it alone," Hope spoke finally as she started the spell.

"Alright, repeat after me, hic es coram me accerso, hic es coram me accerso," The blonde twin and hope begun to chant in union, as they started getting deeper into the chanting the leaves started to fall and the wind started to blow harder. Something was definitely happening, and they could just hope it was the summoning spell working.
After a couple more minutes of holding the spell, lizzie started to feel weaker, Hope knew the girl wouldn't be able to hold much longer, but just as the blonde started to waver, it happened, the harbinger was here. Immediately, mg lit the candle, and the plan was in motion.

"What is this?," he asked in a troathy voice. "What have you done?"

"We simply did what was necessary. See, we are in desperate need of answers in order to protect this school and everyone in it from something brewing on the horizon, unfortunately for you, you seem to be the only one capable of providing such answers, so, as long as you cooperate, we behave, and you can go about your day a lot sooner," Alaric stated while holding his crossbow

After a couple of seconds of seemingly taking everything in, the harbinger made a move to escape only to find himself with no magic and fully surrounded by the supersquad. There was no way out.

"So, like we said before, how about those answers," the tribrid spoke whit ice cold voice, looking straight into his soul, that is, if he had any.

"I'm sorry, but i don't have the answers you're seeking, miss mikaelson. As you may know already, i'm just the bearer of news," He tried to explain

"Bullshit, you have to know something. You really expect me to believe every once in a while you're summoned to prophesies a great evil, and just so happen to play you're part in the hole thing, whitout ever actually coming face to face whit the very thing you preach about? You have to know something, or you wouldn't be here in the first place," Hope stated while looking at him with disbelief. She wasn't buying it for a second.

"It doesn't work like that, i'm basically programmed to appear whenever there's a great evil or death incoming. I'm supposed to be the warning. I don't have to know what it is. I can just feel it coming. You don't know either, yet here you are, demanding answers because you and your friends can feel the shift in the supernatural world, just like me, you may have no idea what or who it is, but you know it's coming," The harbinger stated as a matter of fact

"Like i said, i'm not buying it," Hope stated again

"You don't have to believe me, tribrid. I'm not here to pose a danger to any of you, you're friend was merely collateral damage because you decided to attack me, and i had to defend myself. It's not me you should be wary off, like i alredy told you, i'm just a bearer of news, and i'd hate for you to get blind sited just because your too focused on the wrong thing,"

"Listen to me, you ass hat, i'm perfectly capable of.....,"

"Listen," lizzie said, cutting of the tribrid. "We need something, anything that you can give us ok, we are trying our best to keep everyone safe, our home safe. If you are telling the truth, if you really mean no harm, please just give us anything,"

After what seemed like the most eternal minutes of the squads life, the harbinger finally spoke.

"When night falls, a new power is born, that which is friend turns out to be foe, sun and moon collide and there be no place to hide.......I believe the lot of you are smart enough to decipher this......stick together, that's your only hope if you want to survive what is to come," After, the harbinger took a stand and started chanting a spell, the squad was so submerged in the interrogation they hadn't noticed the candle ran out. In a matter of seconds, the harbinger was nowhere to be seen.

(Present time in josies room)

"I wonder how everything is going," Josie thought to herself in the quiet of her room. It felt odd not being able to be there with her twin. Normally, they didn't run solo, always making sure to stick by each other. Through the time the plan was in motion, Josie didn't feel any alarming emotions, only felt a bit tired, so she assumed everything was going smoothly on the squads side. But now, about an hour and a half had gone by, and nobody was getting anything back to her, so she was starting to worry. She even contemplated going down there and seeing for herself, but the tribrid had told her to stay, and the last thing she wanted was to worry Hope with her safety.

Just as she was about to lay in bed, in hopes that in a few more minutes, one of her friends would come by with news, something or rather someone inrupted in her room.

"Josette...,"

"What are you doing here?," Josie asked alerted. The harbinger had somehow made its way to her room

"I'm not here to hurt you, little whitch. I'm here to give you a warning, be wary of the people in your circle, not all of them can be trusted. One wares many faces," the creature spoke

"Why me? Why not tell this to the others? Why come here? " Josie had so many questions. Why would he warn only her?

"Your friends are to focus on me. They haven't taken notice of the bigger treat looming over all your lives, but you, you have the power to make them see, make them listen. You possess the power to make quiet things heard, or am I wrong? The harbinger asked the girl

"Stick together, little whitch. It's the only way to keep the largest number of people alive,"

After delivering what sounded like a final warning, the harbinger disappeared into thin air, leaving nothing but what seemed like more problems in its wake.
