A Dangerous Desire- Elijah x OC

Pandora's Reset Button

Victoria POV:

I couldn't believe what I was seeing... it didn't make any sense,

Vee: "How? I mean your dead aren't you?"

?: "For centuries now."

Vee: "I don't understand"

?: "It's not for you to understand."

Vee: "Why are you here, Esther?"

Esther: "Because it seems I underestimated you. As you know from watching what you perceived to be a television show, several worlds were destroyed over the series, first the other side... then hell. It was too much and things needed to be reordered. I along with the most powerful witches that had ever been in existence campaigned for a long time and finally we were granted permission for a sort of reset. But simply turning the clock back wouldn't do much... if all the players were the same, so would the outcome remain. So we selected you, you would be the variable that would give the universe how it was supposed to be ordered another chance."

Vee: "Why me? What do you mean what I perceived to be a television series?"

Esther: "Sorry but there is only so much I'm allowed to explain to you."

Vee: "Then why are you here?"

Esther: "As soon as I am raised from my coffin my memories that this has all happened before will be gone, and I'll be blind to what missteps I am sure to make."

Vee: "And that's my problem how?"

Esther: "Because at the rate your going my coffin might never be opened at all! It took a lot to convince the Martin's to abduct you, I thought that would set things in motion enough if you were sidelined until Elijah and Niklaus arrived but I underestimated how much you would come to mean to the people here in such a short amount of time."

Vee: "So what? You've come here to ask me to be less delightful?"

Esther: "Ugh will you shut up you rude child!"

Vee: "Hey you busted into my room uninvited, might want to check yourself before calling someone else rude."

Esther: "If you don't keep what you know to yourself, at least for a little while, I might never get my second chance. So you are going to keep your nose out of original business until I am raised again."

Vee: "I guess this is the part where you tell me what will happen if I don't?"

Esther: "I will keep using the ancestors on the other side to whisper in who's ever ear is available until someone succeeds in taking you out!"

Vee: "But without me it'll all end the same anyway, isn't that exactly what you don't want?"

Esther: "You're right, which is why I am here... to negotiate."

Vee: "You want to negotiate... for my silence?"

Esther: "Yes, so what is it you want... must be something."

Vee: "Even if you gave me whatever my heart desired, I wouldn't be able to sit back and watch people get hurt..."

Esther: "Oh please a year ago these were all fictional characters to you, what do you care if they get hurt?"

Vee:  "I wouldn't expect someone like you to understand."

Esther: "Oh, you think your better than me? That your innocent heart makes you superior? You are nothing but a foolish girl if you decide to die and curse the universe simply because you refuse to bend your ridiculous morals."

Vee: "You know what there is something I want. and it is not negotiable... if you don't come through or use however I word it to weasel out on a technicality... I will absolutely die and curse the whatever world/reality this is to doom."

Esther: "What is it you want?" She asked tensely not liking that I had the leverage.

Vee: "I want to know what happened in the world I came from, I want to see if my family is okay, you give me that... and I'll let a variation play out at least until your risen again."

She narrowed her eyes at me.

Esther: "Fine, but I still won't be able to explain about this reality or how you saw it played out on TV from where you are from."

Vee: "Okay,"

Esther: "Close your eyes." I so did not trust this bitch but I did what she asked. I closed my eyes.

I could hear her step closer and then felt her... as much as you could feel a non corporeal spirt from who knows where anyway....

Suddenly I could see from behind my eyes, the world I had left behind. I saw my brother hard at work and cracking jokes, I saw my Mom moving about the house with our annoying Beagle following her everywhere, I saw my Dad in traffic, he hit the button on the steering wheel and asked the car to "Call Vandy" OMG did I still exist over there?

Suddenly I was somewhere else, it was my apartment I could hear the phone ringing, but the girl who answered it didn't sound like me... Oh MY GOD. Vicki?

"Hey, Daddy!" Daddy? Really? 

"Yeah school's good, job's going well."

"I am so proud of you honey." He's proud of her?

Suddenly I was pulled away from everything and I was back standing before Esther.

Vee: "So what she just took my place?"

Esther gave me a look like are you kidding me 

Vee: "Fine, I guess I'm not the one to make that argument."

Esther: "Your family is fine, Vicki is fine... having a caring mother and an involved father, not to mention money, gave her the support she needed to turn things around, she went to rehab... well was forced once your parents noticed her acting so strangely. But the tough love paid off and she came to really love and care for your family as her own."

Vee: "Wow... I guess, I guess thats good."

Esther: "Still stings being replaced, tho doesn't it?"

I gave her an angry look and had to bite my tongue from calling her a bitch.

Esther: "Now I expect you to hold up your side of the bargain, or else the next time you see me won't be so pleasant."

and Poof the wicked witch was gone.
