Dollhouse {Elijah Mikaelson Story}

Chapter 14

Elijah almost intervened when Athena began to walk towards her father. However; he was caught by Klaus' eager hand, giving Elijah a very disapproving stare.

"What do you want you treacherous..." Demetrius walked closer to Athena

"I want to talk" she interrupted him.

Klaus and Elijah looked at each other in surprise. What were they expecting? Her to just jump in and kill him straight away?

"Why would I want to talk?" Demetrius huffed

"Because after all you're still my father and I want to see where we stand" Athena informed him. Earning a small gasp from Elijah and a glare from Klaus.

After all you're still my father.

The words ran through the brothers mind. She wasn't going to do it. Klaus was certain of it.

"I don't trust her" he whispered to Elijah and put his foot forward to go forward.

He walked straight in to Elijah's hand. "wait" he demanded. Out of all the things Elijah had learnt from researching her and watching her; she was sneaky, stubborn. She sets her mind on something and she does it. She obviously has something in mind.

Demetrius sat down. He crossed his arms and looked at Athena disapprovingly. "What is there to talk about?"

"Well; first I have a confession" she sat down opposite him

"I don't really feel like watching this little family reunion" Klaus whispered, crossing his arms

"I knew that Apollo killed mother; both me and Arcadius covered his tracks and lied to you" she admitted "Apollo couldn't help what he did, he couldn't control his power, and let's face it, mother wasn't a saint"

Elijah saw Demetrius turn red with rage as he darted his eyes to him and back to his daughter.

"Why are you telling me this?" He spat

Athena stood up, looking down on him "because if you killed Apollo for our mothers sake, then it is only fair that you kill the rest; we are just as much to blame as he was"

She stepped up to him. Stretching her arms out to the side "come on father; I'm giving you the chance you crave, the chance to finally kill me, once and for all"

Demetrius scoffed. He looked away.

"You know I'm not your little girl anymore and you hate it; but take a good look father because you made this" she shouted

"Athena" he whispered

"You have the dagger don't you?" She asked "do it, kill me father"

Elijah went to talk her down. But the sight f Demetrius lunging himself at her excited him and terrified him at the same time.

Athena dodged the blow and her hands found their way to her father's face. They clutched on, nails digging in earning a screech.

"Get off me!" He shouted

"Phesmatos incendere ad pulvox." She repeated over and over again as the her eyes clouded over in a grey colour as if she was in a trance.

Demetrius yelled in pain.

"Phesmatos incendere ad pulvox." She kept repeating as one hand lowered its way to her father's chest.

It was happening. Klaus nudged Elijah; the look in his eyes told Elijah it was almost time and for him to get the dagger and do it.

Elijah sped up and downstairs again with the dagger in his pocket. He didn't give himself enough time to think about it.

He returned to watch the fight. Which was almost over.
