Our Family's Hope {Hope Mikaelson FanFiction}

2. No Quarter {part 2}

Underground the city of New Orleans, Hayley Marshall, Elijah Mikaelson, and Freya Mikaelson travel through the tunnels. Looking for Klaus Mikaelson. The last member of their family they need back.
As they approach the door leading to where Klaus is held captive, Elijah says, "Niklaus!" He sees that Klaus is unconscious and panting. "Brother." Elijah tries to open the door but can't because of the lock.
"Let me." Freya says as she stands in front of the door. She hold her hand to the door and undoes the lock with her magic.
Elijah pushes the door open and it makes a creaking sound.
They all walk into the room. Elijah and Hayley look at Klaus, and Freya looks at the invisible wall of the spell detaining her brother.
"Niklaus. We're here." Elijah says and bends down to his level.
Klaus grunts.
Freya puts her hands up, and she feels the walls of the spell. "This spell is strong. It's been reinforced over time, which means it's going to take time to break."
"We don't have time." Elijah informs her.
"I could try brute force. Overwhelm it. But I'll need someone to channel." Freya says.
"I'll do it." Hayley volunteers. "Elijah, you keep watch."
Elijah stands up.
Freya and Hayley kneel down in front of Klaus and the boundary spell. They take each others hands and Freya starts to chant.
"Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata."

At the bar Rousseau's, Kol Mikaelson stands in front of the picture of Davina Claire and Camille O'Connell. He looks sadly at Davina. Regret in his eyes.
"Well... here's to nobody dying today." Josh Rosza says and then hands Kol the drink he just poured. "Or was I premature?"
Kol drinks.
"Tell me, what happens when Klaus gets out? What are you guys gonna do? Massacre this whole city?"
Kol turns and walks away from the picture. "We just want to get our brother and leave. I, for one, hope I never see this filthy city again."
Josh looks at the picture of Camille and Davina, and realizes why he's upset. "I was with someone." He clears his throat. "This guy, Aiden. He died. Killed by your aunt, actually. And afterwards, I hated everything. And I mean everything. Even the... sun. You know? It just kept coming up every morning, like it was any other day and the world hadn't completely changed. It's taken forever for me to feel normal again."
"How fortunate for you that you do." Kol says sarcastically.
"You will, too. It does get better, Kol. Eventually."
"Why are you telling me all this?"
"I think... Davina would have wanted me to." Josh replies. His phone chimes. It's in his jacket which is next to Kol.
Kol picks up his phone and reads the text. "TEUTOBURG" He gets up and walks towards Josh as he says, "Well, since we're such good friends now, perhaps you could explain what 'Teutoburg' means."
"Um... Look, I'm really not part of all this..." Josh stutters.
"Of course you are, especially when you're receiving coded messages from the man that's holding our brother captive." Kol says as he puts Josh's phone in his pocket. "Now... listen very carefully. If anything has happened to my sister, or if something is about to happen to another member of my family, this city and everyone in it will burn: you, your boyfriend, your friends, this bar, your home... Shall I continue? Now, tell me what 'Teutoburg' means."
"It's a battle... where the bad guys caught the good guys off guard. Marcel is warning me that you're all here so that I can spread the word to the rest of our guys..."
"So you can keep us busy and Marcel can kill us." Kol snaps his neck and sits him down on a chair. He pats his shoulder and says, "You're lucky Davina liked you." He leaves at vampire speed.

In an isolated area of the woods, is an abandoned house. It's dirty and old. Vincent Griffith approaches the house. He walks in and closes the door behind him.
"Adam?" Vincent calls. He sees a small flashlight on a chair and picks it up. He clicks the switch a few times and notices that the batteries are dead. He realizes... Adam was in the dark.

Back underground, Freya tries to break the boundary spell that holds Klaus by channeling Hayley while Elijah keeps watch.
"Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata." Freya says over and over.
Elijah hears something from above. Footsteps. Marcel. "Freya..."
"Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata. Apne en vrata."
"Whatever happens, don't stop until Niklaus is free." Elijah says to Freya.
She nods in response. "Apne en vrata."
Elijah goes upstairs at vampire speed.
Upstairs, Marcel walks to the center of the compound. He knows someone's there. He turns and sees Elijah step into the compound.
"Hello, Marcellus."
