"I always knew Arcadius was low but I never thought he would stoop this low" Apollo sat on the bed and looked up at Athena who stood closely beside Elijah, who was still on guard.
"What happens to your magic now?" Elijah asked "I thought Arcadius had it" he directed it to Apollo, who noticed how uneasy Elijah was, still.
"I take it back" he simply said "he'll feel a drain in his power but he still has Athena's and our father's, so it won't make that much of a difference"
"It's something" Athena made light of the situation
"Elijah you can let your guard down now" Apollo stood up and Elijah flinched, almost jumping in front of Athena.
He walked over to Athena and gave her a hug "my sister likes you, you're safe"
"I can't say anything about your brother though" Athena hugged Apollo back but directed her gaze to Elijah "he didn't take the news well that I was back, without magic, never mind a full powered, breathing, immortal witch"
"I guarantee he won't take the news well, but we kind of got him with you" Elijah tried to be optimistic "he can't say no can he?"
"Well that's one way to say it" Apollo shrugged, it was uncanny, he looked just like Arcadius but he had a higher bridged nose, an awful lot like Athena's.
"I should go and prepare Niklaus, for the... News" Elijah kissed Athena on the cheek and walked out of the door.
She felt the blood rush to her cheeks as she felt his kiss linger.
But Elijah didn't go just yet, he wanted to eavesdrop on them. It wasn't normally like him, but he was curious what they would talk about.
"I'm glad you're happy sister" he said to her
"I am" Athena turned back and glanced at the doorway where Elijah had passed through
"I can't say I'm thrilled that he's a vampire" he sighed "but you never bring any guy home, so I'll let it slide"
Elijah smiled slightly and turned around, feeling a bit of guilt.
"Niklaus" he called as he walked down the stairs "I believe your meeting got cut short"
"I did try and alert you but I believed it would give away your position, and I thought you would be out" He explained himself
"What was said anyway?" Elijah asked
"Well we lured him out with the promise if he agreed to our terms we would leave" he began "when he got here, he started spitting about his sister 'screwing' an original vampire, at first it was news to me, I wasn't sure if he was right but it didn't really surprise me when I thought about it"
"I should have told you" Elijah said "I apologise for that"
"You can 'screw' who you like, asking as it doesn't effect me... So after all of that we didn't achieve much, just a few threats and a small headache" he said "oh I want him so dead"
"And he will die" Elijah agreed, going to tell him about Apollo but chickened out, he looked angry... Best tell him when he's in a better mood.

"So what do you have?" Apollo asked as Athena laid out the dark objects.
"I have the shackles, you know the ones that inhibit magic use, I have some lebilia flower, the pocket watch, that gives out a loud noise to witches" she explained. And then she lifted the necklace "this necklace that can burn 2,000 year old immortal witches"
"You're safe then" Apollo winked
"And last of all" the small vile of red liquid slid out of her top drawer and placed itself in Apollo's hand.
"Where did you find this?" Apollo asked, holding the vile as if it was a baby.
"Father hid it under the floorboard, underneath the rug in the living room" she said
"Do you know what this does?" He asked urgently
"Yes" she said "He took the necklace from me, so I thought by using this I can get more time to look for it"
The vile, if consumed would put the witch in question back to sleep early. Giving Athena 500 years to look for the necklace or an alternative to kill him.
"You sister are a genius" he kissed her on the forehead
"Tell me something I don't know" she smiled playfully.

"So what were you and Apollo talking about today?" Elijah lay in bed, the covers held over his abdomen with his bare chest showing
"Nothing much" Athena shrugged "it can all wait till tomorrow"
Elijah went to sit up, but the sight of Athena just stunned him temporarily. Her hair was sweeped to one side and she wore a baggy t shirt, that was probably the length of a short dress.
His eyes lowered to her long legs which rubbed up against each other before walking over and jumping on him. She sat on his stomach and her hands leant on his chest.
"I think we deserve a night to ourselves" she added
Elijah reached up and stroked her cheek. "You're beautiful"
She looked down "nobodies really called me that before"
Elijah sat up slightly and kissed her lips. It was still hard to believe that she was his, and he was hers. Just the feel of her hands on his bare chest exhilarated him and made him feel things that he had never felt before.
Elijah knew that the future held a lot of danger and risks, it held a lot of uncertainty but for tonight, he can forget about the problems outside of this room. His main focus was Athena.
