The Originals

40

•Jessica POV•

An excruciating pain erupted through my chest, and I looked down to see blood pouring onto my shirt. I began choking, blood pouring out each time.

Falling to my knees, I see only one person there, the one who is holding a stake in his hand. Elijah.

I black out from the pain and blood loss, remembering the look of pure evil on his face.

•Davina POV•

Freya and I hold one hand together, as we each grabbed Esther's draining the magic from her body. We finally figured out that we didn't need her to say the spell, we only needed her magic.

We drained her until she passed out from the sudden lack of power and quickly moved back to Jessica. Stefan and Alaric held her body down as Bonnie watched Hope in another room and everyone else tried to fight off Dahlia.

When Jessica comes out of her hell, she won't know what's real and what's not, so we're praying she'll attack Dahlia and weaken her.

If it works, then we'll vervain her until she's not delusional anymore.

•Jessica POV•

Elijah circled me as I stood there, hovering over Jackson my hand gripping his heart.

"Do it!" Elijah bellowed.

A tear fell from my eye as I let go of my brother and faced Elijah.

"I finally realize what I have to do," I whispered looking into his eyes.

"Kill him!"

Instead of answering, I shove my hand into his chest crying as he gasped for air. Quickly, I forcibly pull my hand out and held his heart in it.

He swiftly fell, grey veins covering his skin.

As I finished watching his body decay, I was moved to another room.

I sit up, gasping for air seeing Freya and Davina on my side. They don't say anything as I jump out of the bed, hearing the commotion downstairs.

Swiftly, I jump over the railing and speed towards the only woman standing with her back towards me. My hunger took over in a quick second and I shoved my fangs into her neck, trying to fulfill my hunger.

Not soon after, I was thrown off by her magic and through a glass door causing me to groan. The blood was dripping down her neck as she turned and I saw it was Dahlia.

She seemed surprised to see me, but I know I have to start killing with her then move to everyone else. As she was distracted, someone grabbed her hand before choking her. Esther.

All I could do was lay on the ground, staring at the sight in front of me, because I'm so weak. My minds going crazy trying to snap into reality which is impossible at this point.

All I think is why Im not going to something else. Another part of this hell. Slowly, painfully, I stand as the two stand frozen in the middle of the area.

The others stand as well, staring at me in shock. Before anyone could realize it, I sped towards Damon, a stake in hand from when I fell, and shoved it in his abdomen, with a knee to the head quickly following.

Stefan raced over and threw me back, going to check on his brother. Growling, I race to Marcel as everyone raced to me, trying to hold me back.

I was doing my best to fight them all off until I saw someone standing in the corner.

"Jack?" I whispered before feeling a sharp pain in my neck and collapsing to the ground.

•Elijah POV•

In a second she was in my arms. Relief filled in my heart knowing she's okay, although she just said her brother's name.

After laying her back down in her bed, tucking her in, I close the door and speed towards my idiotic, nuisance of a brother.

"Elijah, allow me to explain," Klaus spoke taking a step back.

Instead of doing so, I punch him and shove him to a wall. Everyone had dispersed knowing this would get ugly and instead went to check on everyone upstairs.

Klaus held me back, hand on my neck and my arm. "Elijah, don't make me bite you for you to lie still and listen," he pleaded.

Growling, I use as much strength as I could and threw Niklaus across the room, standing over him as he groaned on the floor. Kneeling, I shove my hand into his chest, grasping his heart.

"Elijah! Don't!" Rebekah yelled racing towards me. "As much of a monster he is, he doesn't deserve to die. Listen to reason!"

All I could see was my rage, as I tightened my grasp, looking at my brother as he began choking on his blood. Then it was all gone.

As angry as I am, I couldn't kill him. Quickly, I let go and took a step or two back as Rebekah helped him stand.

"Brother, it's as if I meant for it to happen. It surprised me as much as you," Klaus tried again.

Never have been I so silent as i ignored him and walked away, appalled by my own behavior.

Quickly, I shower, scrubbing my brother's blood off my hands, then go to see my love laying on her bed, looking peaceful even with all the blood on her body.

And finally, she's back.
