"Who will be here?" Niklaus asks.

Standing up I look back at him, "I'm not entirely sure, but we need to get them both on to beds. Elijah's body will stop desiccating soon and he'll want to know what happened." I kneel back down to pick up the boy from the floor as Niklaus picks up Elijah's body and follows me to the bedrooms.

"We need to find out who sent that boy Nathaniel, so I can rip their throat out." Klaus says maliciously as he sits Elijah on to the bed.

I stare back at him with an annoyed look, "Don't you think I know that Nik? But I'm not gonna probe through that poor child's mind because you want to go on another rampage!" I say with exasperation," We will wait until he wakes up and then I'll ask him questions but for now I'm gonna go and see if I can find anything out from the local witches."

Before he could respond I walk out of the room. The truth is I know exactly who that boy must be talking about. The spell he was under made it very certain that the person who was behind this idle attack was the same person I had been tracking for 2 centuries.

1809

I made my way into the tavern, stealthy trying to avoid being spotted by Mikael.

"Hello dear, what can I do you for?", the mid-aged hostess asks me as I take a seat at the bar.

I look into her eyes and will my compulsion," Well love, I would like for you to go make polite chatter with that gentleman in that booth" I say as I point to where Mikael is sitting," and find out why he is here."

She looks at me confused for a moment before she walks over to Mikael's booth. I try to concentrate on what's being said.

"What's a handsome man like you doing all alone over here?" The hostess asks Mikael cheerfully.

I slightly glance towards them. And see Mikael stare up at her with a slight smirk.

"Well love, I'm just waiting for a old friend" he says.

The hostess giggles a bit,"Well if you need anything just let me know" she says as she walks back to the bar.

Before she could make her way back to me I get up from the bar and walk towards the exit of the tavern.

As I'm about to get to the door, it swings open and a boy no older than 17 walks in. For a quick second we make eye intact before the boy breaks it and continues walking.

Out of curiosity my eyes follow his back to see where he is going. And to my surprise he sits in the booth with Mikael.

Instead of walking out I sit at an empty booth a couple of rows down from them and listen.

"Why are you here? I asked to speak to him not whoever you are." Mikael asks angrily.

I hear what sounds like a whimper from the boy before he speaks," He would like you to meet him at the Salvatore crypt tonight when the moon is at its peak."

I glance over and see Mikael stand up from the booth and walk towards me. I bow my head down and let my hair cover my face. As I see Mikael's feet walk pass me I let out a small exhale I didn't know I was holding in. And that's when I smell it. The unmistakable smell of blood.

I get up and follow the scent and it leads me to the booth that the boy and Mikael were seated at.

The boy is still seated there with his body leaned against the wall as he stares into nothingness with blood seeping through his eyes.

I reach out and tapp on his shoulder,"Are you alright there mate?" I ask.

He doesn't move a muscle. I can hear his heartbeat slowing and that only means he's moments away from death.

I sit down next to him and touch his face,"I'm sorry I have to do this." I say as I reach into his mind.

There's so many memories of his family and the girl who he loved that just zip through until I land on one that makes me snap my hand away.

I can feel my heart begin to race as realization sets in my mind.

There's no way it could be him. There's no way I just saw someone who I saw with my own eyes saw burn 700 years ago. It can't be.

The boy's memory flashes through my head again. And there in his las memory is the face of the one person who I love the most in this world. Nicholous. My sweet little brother.

"Are you alright Nathaniel?", I jump startled as I snap out of my memory. I turn to see Hailey standing in the entry of the compound with Jackson by her side.

I smile at them, "Oh I'm sorry, I was just zoned out a bit." I laugh a little," I'm just about to head out actually. There was a bit of an incident a while ago and I think it would be best if you stayed in the compound for the time being"

She looks at me, analyzing me for a bit," I know Klaus texted and told me I should come here. We were close by, are you sure you're fine?"

" Yeah I'm ok, I was just lost in my train of thought.", I look at Jackson," Will you be staying here as well?" I ask.

He glances at Hailey before looking at me," Yeah I think it's best if someone from the pack is with her. And since I'm the only who can tolerate Klaus enough I think I'm the best fit." He says annoyingly.

I laugh," Very well then, your more than welcomed to use my bedroom while you're staying." I tell them both as I walk around them," I'll see you guys later."

As I make my way onto the busy streets of the French Quarter it's almost like I can feel the danger in the air. But nevertheless I make my way across the city to the only person who knows about Nicholous besides myself. Marcellus.
