{NIKLAUS}

   It's been a day since , kols death .
I'd say I was happy , but I would have preferred myself to be the one to kill him . If I had to .

After all he is family , or a matter of fact was.

So today I'm leaving mystic falls to go visit some witches.

. In New Orleans .

"Well, then i'm off" I  called over my shoulder , before adding "ill be back"

                                          *******************************************

It didn't take long to arrive in the town , my family once called home .

    I smiled as I walked down a street, stopping to watch a tour group.

   I listened in "Welcome to the dark side of New Orleans, a supernatural playground where the living are easily lost, and the dead stick around to play.'

I snickered and  continued my walk ,entering a market place.

I took a seat on a head stool in 'Rousseaus' a bar in New Orleans .

Yes , I'm checking in on Niklaus .

"So what brings you to the Big Easy?" The blonde headed bar tender asked smiling

"I used to live here ." I answered back politely

"Really when ?" She asked

"Oh , it feels like. Hundred years ago "
I answered smiling lightly
As I placed my hand on the counter

"I just moved here myself . What brought you back?" She raised a brow
Tossing a cloth over her shoulder

"Well, my brother's here somewhere. I'm afraid he might have got himself into a bit of a bind." I furrowed my eyes and rolled the glass cup in my fingers

"You say that like it's a common occurrence." She said chuckling lightly

"Well ... he's complicated. Defiant, ill-mannered, and a little temperamental. See, we don't share the same father. Of course that never bothered me, but my brother resents it deeply. Never felt like he belongs. All told, he has a long history of getting himself into trouble" I nodded at my response .

"And I'm guessing you have a long history of getting him out of it." She stated

I nodded smiling

"What kind of bind is your brother in?" She asked

She likes questions .

"He believes there are people in this town that are conspiring against him" I spoke cautiously

": Wow. Narcissistic and paranoid. Sorry. Bartender with a grad degree in psychology. Total cliché"
She shook her head

I looked at her name tag for a moment

" Listen, Camille, I'm looking for someone who might shed some light on his current predicament. She works here, Jane-Anne Deveraux. Any idea where I might find her?"

"No but I know someone who might " she responded smiling .
