I'll Always Catch You (Sequel to Frenemies|| a Kol Mikaelson fanfiction)

05

Hayley's POV

I stood by Elijah's body, examining his features. The things I saw in the pendant made me fear him and the destruction he caused. My heart was breaking into thousands of pieces thinking of everything I saw.

Freya entered the room, looking at the pendant. "It's becoming unstable. We need to reunite him with his body soon or else we'll lose him".

My eyes didn't drift from his face, unsure how it would be when he was out. "Hayley" Freya said, causing me to look at her. "What should we do?" I asked.

"I have an idea, but it's going to take a lot of planning" she walked across the room and grabbed some ingredients.

"We need to sacrifice something strong and use the power to bring back Elijah".

I put the pieces together and realised what she was insinuating. "The Hollow". Freya nodded, looking at the pendant.

"And we need to do it soon".

Kol's POV

I searched all over for Elisa, asking around if anyone had seen her. Nothing.

I had no clue where she was, and doubt began to cloud my mind. What if she wasn't back? What if Freya was wrong?

The thought of it being a mistake made my blood boil and my eyes vein up. My anger got so out of control I grabbed a stranger on the street and sped them into an alleyway, bleeding them dry.

My hunger was under control, but my anger wasn't. Rage travelled through my veins as I thought about the torture the Hollow could be causing my Elisa.

Cleaning my face off, I headed for the cemetery, thinking of the only people I thought could help.

------------

"What do you mean 'no'? You will do as I ask!!" I shouted at the Harvest girls, feeling my blood boil. I was at their crypt asking them to do a locator spell but instead they decided to defy me.

"We refuse to help you, Mikaelson. We have done you one favour already out of kindness, but refuse to do continuous deeds for you" one of them spat, causing me to slam my hand on the invisible wall that refused me entry to the crypt.

"You understand nothing. Someone who I care about is in danger and I am not going to let her perish!!" I raised my voice, punching into the stone wall.

"Well we wouldn't want you to suffer would we? I mean compared to all the torture your family has inflicted on witches, this one person is so very important" another sarcastically replied.

My eyes veined up as I sped at the crypts opening. "Come out from that wall and face me cowards. We'll see who has the real power".

"I think we're okay here, thanks. Enjoy your search for your precious love" the first girl said before they all turned around and walked back into the crypt.

"You'll regret not helping me, you fools!!! You'll regret not helping me find Elisa".

My anger clouded me and before I knew it tears fell from my eyes. I collapsed on the floor outside the crypt, leaning against the stone wall.

I couldn't live without her, not when I knew she was so close to me.

"She means a lot to you, doesn't she?" A female voice said. I looked up and saw one of the Harvest girls at the door of the crypt, looking at me with soft features.

I looked down, still angry at her and her group. "Yes she does, what's it to you?" I hissed.

I felt her bend down so she was on the same level as me. "I've never seen a Mikaelson show emotion like this before, which means your feelings for this girl are strong and unique".

I looked at her, wiping the tears from my face. She examined my features before smiling softly. "I'll do the spell for you. I may be defying my coven, but I'd rather do that than suffer the wrath of a Mikaelson with a broken heart".

I sighed with relief when the words left her mouth, a smile forming on my face. "Thank you" I huffed happily, which she returned with a smile.

I watched as Katrina, whom the witches name was, did the spell to find Elisa. She concentrated on the way the ash moved on the map, focusing on what she needed to find. I paced back and forth, worried about the possible things Elisa could be experiencing. She could be dead again for all I knew.

The ash suddenly set into place, and Katrina finished chanting. "That's strange" she mumbled. I bent down and looked at the map, curious to what she meant.

"She's in the cemetery, here. But I don't sense any new magic here" she looked at me confused, causing me to think of how to explain how that was possible.

"I don't get it. The only way you wouldn't be able to detect her resurrection is...." my brain suddenly pieced everything together, and I realised why her magic wasn't felt in the Quarter.

"She was buried here. You didn't detect her because she's been here all along, which means she was resurrected from her bones" I got up and rushed off, heading to Elisa's grave.

Once I was beside it, I punched into the wall, smashing through her gravestone. Looking in, my fears were confirmed.

Her body was gone. No remains. Nothing.

"Where are you Elisa?" I mumbled to myself. Stepping back, I took in what was in front of me, not believing what the Hollow had done.

"She must be worth it" a voice said behind me, causing me to turn quickly. A girl with a dark presence was stood there smirking.

"The Hollow" I growled, baring my fangs. I prepared to charge at her, anger pulsing through my veins.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you. There could be major consequences" she smiled, stepping towards me. "You have threatened my family and the love of my life, why would I not want to hurt you?" I hissed, thinking of how good it would feel tearing her apart.

"Because of her" she replied, indicating to an empty space beside her which was filled with someone who made my body relax and my heart skip a beat.

"Elisa" I stepped forward, checking to make sure she was okay. Her face was cold towards me, and I saw rage in her eyes. She walked towards me, not looking away from my face. Stopping in front of me, she placed her hand on my cheek before smirking, causing me to feel confused and uncertain.

Suddenly, I was thrown back into a wall by her, her returning to her spot next to The Hollow.

"What have you done you evil witch?!" I shouted.

"I showed Elisa the truth. How you hurt her, how you manipulated and used her. She has no care for you or your family now" the Hollow explained, before looking at Elisa like she was a trophy.

"You will pay!!" I hissed before storming towards her, my eyes black.

"I wouldn't kill me if I were you. Like I said there'd be consequences" she grabbed Elisa's hand, smirking, causing me to stop.

"What did you do?" I asked, observing her actions. She grinned before raising her hand and Elisa's next to each other so I could see what she had done.

I saw the cut on both their hands, which made my heart drop. "She and I are now linked" the Hollow told me, watching my face drop.

My heart was beating fast as I saw no recognition of us in Elisa's face. I had to help her.

"I guess this means if you want your beloved Elisa to be okay, then you work for me. Disobey me, and I will make her kill you painfully, then return her memories so she can see the monster she truly is" the Hollow placed her hand on Elisa's cheek, knowing what would enrage me.

Elisa looking at me and growled, causing my heart to break. I couldn't lose her again, and I couldn't let her live with the pain of killing me.

My eyes darted towards the Hollow, my face cold. "As long as no harm comes to her, we have a deal".
