Heathens ➶ The Originals

twelve ; what is she

EMERY STROLLED INTO THE QUARTER, head held high with her usual smirk. She straightened her top though it was her heels that was turning heads. 6 inches seemed like the perfect height for such an occasion.

Suddenly, Marcel came out from a door, facing down on them from a balcony. Luckily, he didn't seem to notice Emery as he addressed his loyal little vampires.

"Ladies, gentlemen, welcome to Fight Night..." Cheers were heard all around as Marcel held his hands up, grinning proudly. "And the first rule of Fight Night is, the vampire left standing at the end of the night is one step closer to the inner circle and one of these--a daylight ring. If you can impress me with a little ultra-violence, you too can enjoy the warmth of the sun on your face. All you got to do is kick a little ass. So here we go."

Cheers and applause were outstanding as Marcel finished his little speech. Emery was in a state of bliss once she heard the first names being called.

"Our first two contenders--Felicia and Otto." See, Emery had a little run in with the brunette vampire named Felicia earlier in the day. Let's just say Emery was the only one to walk out alive, and Felicia's body was currently burning off a highway somewhere.

With a flick of her hand, she made a life-like version of Felicia come to life and walk up the front, raising her hand in approval of the applause. Marcel laughed as 'Felicia' made negative gestures towards Otto.

Before she could move, Otto turned around and punched the skinny brunette. With a flick of Emery's hand, 'Felicia' dodged the next punch and instead kicked his ass, literally. She jumped up, punching Otto in the face, then elbowing his jaw. She made a move again but Otto went faster. He grabbed her around the waist, throwing her on the ground. If she was human...or real, she more than likely would have been paralyzed or severely injured.

Emery failed to play it off, instead getting butt hurt herself that her make believe character was losing. Getting up, 'Felicia' knocked Otto down towards his front when he tried grabbing her again. She flipped him over, punching the brute twice before he knocked her over.

Both contenders got up, though 'Felicia' was quick to release her rage and wrapped her legs around Otto's neck, bringing him to his knees before snapping his neck.

Throughout the tense scene, Emery didn't see Marcel's eyes glance over to her and watch her movements. He could easily see that she was controlling something in the match, but he was stumped on what the supposedly human girl thought she was doing. Marcel's suspicion of Emery only increased at this moment as Felicia won and his eyes drifted back towards the match.

"Whoo! Damn, girl, not bad," Marcel applauded.

When he turned back towards Emery, she was gone, disappeared in a mere flash. Marcel was about to head out, to follow the peculiar blonde, but he was stopped by Felicia falling down to the ground after having her neck snapped by Klaus.

Though Emery had only gone behind a pillar as to hide from Elijah and Klaus. Once she heard about Hayley being missing, she jumped into the role of caring friend and raced off to find her badass friend.

She entered the church silently, looking as innocent as a schoolgirl with her pretty white sundress. Playing the innocent role came easily to Emery. After all, she had an eternity to binge watch as many shows as she wanted.

She made her way up the staircase leading to the attic. Luckily, she didn't encounter anyone on the way up. That would've been a hassle though not unmanageable.

"Davina?" Emery called, sighing in relief when she heard a gentle shout back indicating the witch was in the attic.

She plastered a fake smile on her face, hiding the devilish nature she possessed. Entering the room, she immediately noticed the various paperwork lying around and how unkept the room was.
