Chapter XIII - A Closer Walk With Thee. Part 2

New Orleans, 2012

I went back home and called my witch-turned vampire-turned best friend. She has told me the information that she was able to gather is that the other side is falling apart. But she hasn't been able to figure is why. It falling apart allowed some stronger people to reach out the real world. And that means that Kol is still out there. Or at least his soul is and is trying to reach out to me.

Fleur has said that there might be a spell that might help reach him but the only problem is that she didn't have the whole spell and the other half must been in one of Esther's books. And there is a lot of them to go through. I went to study and started to go through them. I found nothing in the first two spell books. Absolutely nothing. So I searched more. Books were flying everywhere.

"Did you find anything?"

I didn't notice when Hayley entered the room. I turned around and saw her looking at me concerned. She has agreed to come with me while the brothers went to talk to Genevieve and to stay at the compound for the night, till the funeral tomorrow. I told her what I've heard from my dear friend.

"Not yet." I shook my head and went back to roaming through the bookshelf.

I heard she sat down on the armchair and started to roam through many books that were laid on the coffee table.

"Who is this?" she asked curious. Hayley picked up a drawing that was sandwiched between pages of one of the books. "He looks just like Elijah." her lips formed a soft smile

I smiled through the pain. The drawing was of Henrik. It din't seem to be old so Klaus must have drawn it in the recent years.

"One of the Mikaelson brothers. His name was Henrik." Hayley handed me the piece of paper and I looked at her stomach. I found it hard to believe that if it wasn't for his death we wouldn't be here.

"He was the best person there ever was." I simply said.

We heard noise and Elijah entered the room. Hopefully he has have found some more information.

"I asked around. It's not just our father. The purgatory where supernatural souls are trapped is disintegrating." The older brother explained

"It's actually imploding. " said Klaus that appeared right behind him. "I made a call to a rather reluctant Bennett witch in Mystic Falls. She said the same thing. Apparently some travellers in Mystic Falls did a risky spell and the combination of doppelgänger blood tore through the Anchor. The dead are being torn away into nothingness. And, they're not interested in going quietly." He added

"So, you're saying that our father, faced with permanent extinction, has decided to spend his remaining tormenting us? How delightful!" Elijah said sarcastically.

"Well, on the plus side, we'll soon be rid of his abhorrent soul forever. And what a good riddance that will be!" Added Klaus with a smile.

"And we would also be getting rid of Kol and hell even Finn." I raised my voice at him. I couldn't believe he was saying this!

"Is that why my living room is in shambles? May I ask what you've been searching for?" He almost ignored my question and pointed at the mess on the floor

"Esters grimoir. The brown one with brass corners. Fleur said it might..." I tried to explain but he cought me off.

"I gave it to Genevieve."

"Then get it back." I shrugged

"It's more complicated than that. Full moon is upon us and that grimoir contains a spell that will help me..."

I also knew that Klaus was going to help the mutts and give them some rings against the full moon. I can understand how he would give one singular ring to Hayley, after all she is the mother of his child. But not to the whole herd.

"No! That book contains a spell that might help us get your brothers back. We need to find a way to bring them back. Did you forget your brothers are in that you failed in so many ways? " I got in the hybrids face. He looked past me at Elijah

"Are for real?" I turned to them both. "They're your brothers.."

"Yes brothers that are dead and that I morened." Scream Klaus at me. I took a step back

Before Kol and Finn died, they resided in Mystic Falls. It was there that they were murdered. I regret that because of my hatred and fear for Klaus I wasn't there to stop it or avenge them. When they died, their entire line ceased to exist. Every vampire in their line died. After that it made it real that if an original died we would all die. Probably including me. But that that I have a chance to do something I can't just do nothing.

"Can we please..."

"No Elijah, we can't." I snapped. "I will find a way to get them back. With or without your help!" I looked at them both.
