Phasmatos Oculacs," Sophie said firmly as Klaus's body appeared in one of the previously empty crypts on a makeshift alter.

Finn had found Sophie and demanded his brother's whereabouts. After little convincing, she unveiled him after seeming to hide him for his own protection. Elijah had taken Elena back to the Compound to regain her strength after what happened, leaving Klaus and Finn to deal with Rebekah's body.

"Thank you," Finn said as Klaus gasped awake. Ignoring his brother, he continued, "Do you know where Kol is? Or if he was in on this little shenanigan?"

Sophie shook her head, "Kol went to The Bayou to check out a lead on werewolves. That's all Rebekah told me."

Finn accepted her answer and helped Klaus down from the alter and led him towards the door of the crypt. But before they made it out, Klaus rounded on Sophie, "I will never forgive your kind for this," he spat angrily, "What did Rebekah promise you in return for the child? Freedom?"

Sophie looked down, ashamed with herself, "She told me I could have the baby's magic if I helped. That's all."

"If I have my way, you won't have any magic left," Klaus sneered at her as he allowed Finn to lead him from the crypt.

After they had gone, Sophie collapsed onto the dirt floor. She was thoroughly disgusted with her actions. She wouldn't even care if they took her magic. She didn't deserve it.

Elena awoke gasping for air and held her eyes closed. Her hand flew to her neck and massaged it fiercely as her memories of what happened only hours before came flooding to the forefront of her mind.

Rebekah had tried to kidnap her to steal the baby.Elijah's baby. She had made her feel like a worthless human all over again. Maybe she couldn't be a Mikaelson after all. Rebekah took away her ability to defend herself, and by extension, her child.

Before she could start her actual pity party, she felt warm hands on her face, "Elena? My love, open your eyes," Elijah's voice sounded like honey; so full of love and compassion. She could feel that she was in the Compound, their bedroom to be exact. She could feel the soft sheets around her and a light one on top of her.

Her eyes flittered open and twin brown orbs met her gaze. "Elijah…" her voice was hoarse from screaming, yet she had much to say, "What happened? Where's Rebekah? How did I get here?"

"Shhh, dearest," he stroked her hair from her face, "Rebekah has been dealt with. Finn and I came as soon as you told me something was wrong."

Elena looked confused, "I told you?"

"You reached out to me with your mind," he explained swiftly, "The mating bond has now extended to hearingeach other when we're in need. Or so I presume."

"Oh…" Elena sighed thoughtfully. That explains why he found her. She felt Elijah place his hand on her stomach and only then did she realize her lack of clothing. She shot into sitting position as she wrapped the sheet more tightly around herself, "Where are my clothes?"

"They were torn and extremely dirty. I figured you'd like to be more comfortable," he offered.

She nodded, lying back down. She looked at her wrist and noticed the rope cuts were still visible, "Why haven't I healed yet?"

"Greta was here earlier to examine you. She explained that while you're pregnant, your vampire perks, for lack of a better word, are hindered. You will heal as a human heals."

"Then how am I still alive? A human just doesn't heal from a broken neck."

"Ah, that's one of the loopholes," he smiled as he rubbed soft circles on her pregnant belly, "If you weren't pregnant with our little witch, we wouldn't be having this discussion right now. She saved you. She managed to use enough magic to heal you without harming herself. However, she had to leave the minor cuts and bruises alone in order to survive."
