Darkness Will Fall | Volume 1 : Sacrifice T.O}

Chapter 39: The fall

Today Rebekah decided to treat me to the city just to force me to deal with the crowds but especially to buy a dress, it reminds me of the time when I went to all the stores in town with Caroline. I feel like it was so long ago, no vampires. Just a bunch of high school kids who couldn't wait to go to college.

Rebekah: Hey are you listening to me?

Talia: Yes, yes.

Rebekah: So I was saying... For centuries, New Orleans has attracted people looking for a fresh start, hoping to find fortune, adventure and even love. A young woman was sent from France with the promise of marrying a nice man, they were called "cassette girls". They had no idea that the nice men who were waiting for them were not from good society and especially not that nice, the story of the girls on the tape is still alive.

And they are celebrated every year in New Orleans in an eccentric and sophisticated costume, it is important to remember that women are sometimes oppressed by selfish men but that they can triumph when they have the courage to fight .

Talia: And you're telling me all this just so I can put on a stupid wedding dress? Then my exes weren't selfish.

Rebekah: Jace was still an asshole.. Oh I'm sorry..

Talia: No, it's okay, I haven't said his first name since I got here and it's weird...

Rebekah: You need to take your mind off things, go find yourself a dress.

Talia: I know very well thank you...

Rebekah: Don't make me think that smile isn't a mask, you need to talk about it.

Talia: No way..

Rebekah: We need to stick together as girls, so tell me everything.

Talia: I miss him, I can't stop thinking about him every day that follows... I can't get the night he died out of my head.

Rebekah: Talia.. I know it's difficult and it's not going to get better but you experienced something beautiful now you have to move on. I thought it was just Jonathan and you falling in love before he told me he wanted to get away from everything with you.

Talia: He wanted to leave with me?

Rebekah: Yes, after you settle this matter with Silas..

Talia: I...

Rebekah: So let's find this stupid wedding dress, this one or that one?

Marcel: The third lanyard with a mermaid tail for Talia and you in a bowl, right?

Rebekah: Ugly and uninteresting.

Marcel: I hope you're talking about dresses.

Talia: Well, I'm going to slip away..

Rebekah: No, you stay and you maybe feel targeted?? This fabulous carnival wouldn't exist if I hadn't been there, we absolutely have to find a beautiful dress.

Talia: "You" I don't, and I want to go back.. There are too many people.

Rebekah: Fine, go ahead and find me another shopping buddy.

Talia: Thank you very much.

Walking towards the Mikaelson house, I see all the vampires running around looking for Davina, I slip away and take out my phone to call her.

Talia: Davina, do you know you got yourself into big trouble?

Josh: Sorry it's the fabulous Joshua on the phone.

Talia: Pass it to me please.

Davina: What's going on?

Talia: Well what's happening is that all of Klaus' vampires are looking for you, so I hope you're far from this town.
