Void

2.11

I sat in Rousseau's at the bar thinking to myself. Someone grabbed me from behind and pulled me up to look at them. I relaxed when I realized it was only Klaus, and I knew he wouldn't hurt me or his secret would get out. I asked, "What do you want?"

Klaus informed, "You're coming with me."

He grabbed my arm and started to drag me with him. I struggled against him but as soon as we got to the door we were gone thanks to his vampire speed. We inside of St. Anne's and Davine was pouring salt on the floor. Klaus demanded, "You're going to help Davina lift the spell from the Abattoir."

I challenged, "Why?"

Klaus informed me, "Zachery was bitten by a werewolf."

My eyes widened in surprise and I knew that I couldn't just let him die, not after everything he did for me. I sighed and started to help Davina. Klaus paced around us and asked, "Haven't you found Finn yet?"

When neither of us answered, Klaus insulted, "For witches of your caliber, your spells are not particularly efficient."

Davina snapped, "Finn is blocking my locator spell. So we're trying something new, but we need to concentrate." She wasn't wrong. A big part of witchcraft was being able to concentrate. "It would help a lot if you stopped standing over us like a stalker."

Klaus started to move and I lit a match. Klaus informed, "No need to be testy, love. We have the same goal."

Davina asked, "Really? My goal is to get Kol out of your house alive. Seems to be about number 10 on your list."

I lit a candle before blowing out the match. Klaus turned to look at us and corrected, "Number nine, at least."

I could not believe Klaus. I asked, "What is wrong with you?" No matter what Stiles would ever do to me, I still wouldn't leave him in a dangerous situation. "He's your brother."

Klaus pointed out, "Yes, and I also have a sister. One who I happen to care about more. And do I need to remind you that she is your mother?" I scoffed because that was a low blow. "So until he tells me where she is, Kol can rot as far as I'm concerned. And you might want to get your villains straight, love. Finn is the architect of this fiasco. So pick up the pace, find out where he's getting his power from so we can stop it."

I questioned, "You care about my mother? Are you sure, Niklaus?" I saw the fear in his eyes and he knew that I was about to let out the secret the two of us knew. "Because I seem to recall you daggering her when I was four and then watching me as I grew up, but denying that chance to my mother."

Klaus snapped, "And when you find Finn, we will find her." I shook my head because it wouldn't make it up for the last 12 years I spent without her. "So get to work."

I rolled my eyes and held out a hand to Davina. She took it and we started to chant. Davina and I saw flashes of him before we both gasped. Davina gasped, "We saw glimpses of him. He's combining sacred object. Totems. Representational magic."

Klaus took a couple of steps forward and asked, "Where?"

We both closed our eyes again and went back in. I informed, "Lafayette No. 1." That wasn't all we got though. "The Lyonne tomb."

Klaus questioned, "And what's he using?"

We dug deeper before seeing Lenore and Mikael. Our eyes snapped open and I was shocked at that. Davina admitted, "He's channeling your parents."

Klaus grinned, "And here I thought I was the poster child for least-grateful offspring." Davina and I stood up. "Well, then, shall you two and I go crash their little party?"

Davina and I started to follow Klaus, but he stopped and Davina asked: "Now who needs to pick up the pace?"

Klaus fell down and I quickly walked to his side. I bent down by him and put my hand on his back and asked, "Klaus?" He didn't wake up and I think I knew what we had seen. I turned him over and started to slap his face. "Wake up." He didn't so I slapped him again. "Wake up!" I sighed and sat down on the floor. "The one time I need you."

His phone started to buzz so I pulled it out of his jacket and didn't bother to look at it but held it back to Davina. She took it and answered it while I moved and put my hands on the sides of Klaus' face. I tried to get into his mind. When I finally did, I saw flashes of where he was. When I came out of it, I gasped and moved backward away from him. Davina asked, "What? What did you see?"

I breathed out, "They're in a room, with animals to represent them."

Davina questioned, "Who's them?"

I answered, "Klaus, Elijah, Finn..." I watched her face so I could see her reaction to the last name, "...Kol."

Davina's face immediately contorted into shock. She was the first one to move back to our work to try and find more information about Finn and his location before I joined her. Klaus gasped as he woke up, so Davina and I stood and turned to him. We walked towards him as Davina asked, "What happened? Is Kol ok?"

Klaus informed, "I'm fine, thank you for your concern. The same, however, cannot be said for your friends and the people of the French Quarter." I furrowed my brow in confusion because I wasn't sure what he was talking about. "Now I can stand here and explain to you two the specifics or you two can show a little trust and come with me."

I snarked, "We're the ones who've been waiting for you to move your ass. Let's go."

We walked past him and grabbed our jackets before leaving with Klaus following us. We walked outside and went to the streets but nothing was wrong. Davina scoffed, "Everything's fine out here. Where the hell are they?"

Klaus looked at us and commanded, "You two look around. I'll see if I can track them down."

He turned and walked away. Davina and I looked around for Marcel or his vampires. Davina saw Kol and ran over to him, however, I rolled my eyes at the traitor. Someone grabbed onto my shoulder from behind and I turned as I grabbed their wrist. I went to hit the person, but stopped when I noticed it was Zach. He looked weak so I put his arm around my shoulders and whispered: "Come on."

I dragged him with me to an alley before leaning him against a wall. Zach gasped, "I gotta get to Marcel's. He's got blood there. I need to feed."

I denied, "No way in hell you're getting to Marcel's like that soon. You need to feed?" I held my wrist out to him. "Feed." He glanced up at my wrist that I held out to him and shook his head. "Feed, Zach. I'm not joking. You're hungry and you look like you're in really bad shape, so feed." Zach really needed to feed, especially if he was still being affected by the werewolf venom. "I trust you to stop, and if you don't? I'll stop you. I don't know if you know this, but I'm a really powerful witch."

Zach chuckled and looked at me. His veins became noticeable along with his fangs and blood red eyes before he sunk his teeth into my wrist. When he had enough, he pulled away and I smiled, "I told you, I knew you would pull away in time. Come on, we're going to the apartment."

He let me help him to my car and take him to the apartment.
