The Lost Child (TO)

Mystic Falls part 1

Location: New Orleans, USA. The mikaelson Compound.

(Klaus' Pov)

It's now been 15 years. 15 years ago, she was here in my arms and had my protection, my family's protection. Now? Now she is gone. Taken.

From her family. We searched for years without finding a single clue that could help us get her back.

She is gone because of me. I was so distracted arguing with Marcel and the others that it ended up with us losing her. 

Now we have Hope to take care of. When she was born, I think it healed a part of all of us. But we are still waiting for a sign that Ivy is alive.

I am scared to know if she has been out in the world growing up all alone or if she has got another family. 

I still remember the night of the loss. After we found her crib empty. I felt my heart explode into pieces. She was the only thing that made me feel a little more human for a long time. 

Now I am not even sure if she is alive at all. 

(present)

I put my journal away. Afraid to tear up. As I put the journal into my desk drawer and locked it. I felt a familiar person appear at the door.

"Elijah." I said with a sigh.

"I haven't seen you journaling for decades" my curious older brother stated. "Well, if you haven't noticed time changes people, Elijah" I snarled.

"She isn't a lost cause yet, brother. I promise we will get her back" he said looking directly into my eyes with a firm face.

"Yeah! But what if we can't! HUH!? We are just staying in this town doing nothing to get her back anymore!? We are not even sure if she is still alive and breathing!!" I yelled at him.

"Don't say that. Brother. I promised Hayley and you that we would find a way and we will. The time just hasn't come yet" he says with a calm voice taking some steps closer.

"What if the time never comes!? Elijah, I can't stand to live with myself not knowing if she is safe and breathing!!" I yell still angry.

"Hey! What is with all the yelling??" Hayley says as she comes through the door, with the others following in behind her.

We both turn to face them. "Nothing you need to care about little wolf" I say with a calm voice but still angry.

"Well, it clearly is when we all could hear you from the courtyard" she throws back at me while stirring into my eyes.

But our star off gets interrupted by my brat of a sister. "Well, what are you waiting for spit it out. Because we aren't going to leave anytime soon, if you don't" Rebecca says with folded arms, taking a few steps into my office.

I sighed straightening up in my chair. As I turn away from them a give a look towards Elijah. "wait. You weren't arguing about her again. Were you??" my other sister Freya asked. 

Without getting an answer back she knew she was right. Everyone knew what we were talking about now. Because of that one question. "Klaus--" As Hayley tried to say something I interrupted her sentence knowing what she was about to say.

"No. Don't Klaus me! I am tired of us just staying here waiting around for clues! While she might not even be breathing!!" I yell as I stand up from my office chair.
