Have a little Hope [ON HOLD]

Chapter 12 II Pancakes

"Hope, are you home?" - grandma was yelling from downstairs.

"It depends, are you still in bad mood?" - I said sarcastically.

"No, I am not."

"Then I'm home." - I yelled as I came downstairs. Grandma was putting some groceries down. I saw on her face that she is sorry for before but she didn't wanna admit that, maybe because she has too much pride or she doesn't wanna  admit that I am right and I am always, always right. There was some awkward silence for few minutes until I spoke: "So, Alex and Danielle are coming tomorrow till night falls."

"That is nice." - she finally spoke. I sat on a chair and started playing with my nails for some reason.

"Uhm", I started speaking but I didn't really know what to say or ask, so I said first thing that came on my mind, "You seem to know a lot about me, so can you answer some questions for me?"

"If I know the answer" - she sat next to me.

"Why did my powers appeared when they did?"

"I don't know that, but I now that when your powers appeared you stopped aging." - she said but I interrupted her.

"That is awesome!" - I exclaimed.

"Depends how you see it. Everything has its good sides and its bad sides. Anyways, what else would you liked to know?"

"I met this guy today; Marcel, who is he?" - I asked. She seemed to know but I've got a feeling that she didn't liked him much.

"That is one long story, my dear."

"Only thing we have is time" - I said sarcastically.

"He was born in 1810 of a female slave and her master the Governor of Louisiana. Despite being the Governor's son he was a slave until he met Niklaus Mikaelson who decided to take him into his family and named him Marcellus."

"So, he is Klaus's adopted son?" - I asked confused cause I didn't really know any of this.

"Klaus also made him a vampire. While after that, to be precise when the original family left, he made himself king of New Orleans, controlling all the witches and banishing all the werewolf. He made his rule safe."

"Ha, I tried that once, didn't exactly worked out"- I said and she raised an eyebrow.

"As I was saying, he was king of New Orleans until Klaus came back. You see, witches were under his control because he needed to protect somebody."

"Who?" - I asked.

"Davina Claire; she was a harvest girl, I asume you know what that is", she said and I nodded, "Marcel saved her and since then he considers her his daughter and... I forgot to tell you, Hope"

I looked her confused and said : "Forgot to tell me what?"

"Seventeen years ago, Davina and Klaus were in some kind of war or something and she killed you"

"No, she didn't, I'm right here"

"Well she didn't kill you, she just told everyone that she did, but in reality, she took you and left you along with the note and your name in front of my son's front door, and that cost her her life."

"Kluas killed her?" - I asked and she nodded.

"Marcel didn't took it well, but he did understand"

"Wait... if you knew who I was all this time, why didn't you brought me to my real parents?"

"Klaus and Haley aren't your real parents, they are your biological parents. There is difference"

"I know that" - I said a bit sad when she mentioned mom and dad.
