To Be Equal
━━━━━━━━
THE NEXT MORNING, Athena stayed quiet. Something was going to happen, she knew that. And to add to that, the events from last night unnerved her. It wasn't the fact that she felt familiarity when she saw the boy, but the fact that he was trying to warn her about something. And maybe, just maybe he was trying to warn her of what Esther was up to.
She walked down the stairs the next morning to see Klaus on the couch sketching and Kol nearby. Both saw her enter and both instantly became concerned when they saw the way she was acting.
"What's wrong, Ena?" Kol asked going over to her.
Athena shook her head, not looking into his eyes. "Nothing. Just didn't get that much sleep that's all."
"Don't tell me you regret giving Damon Salvatore a piece of your mind?"
She cracked a smile. "I don't." She sighed and then looked around. "Do you really think mother wants to be a family again?"
Both of her brothers were silent and before either of them could say anything, Rebekah walked in, after hearing her brothers' concern.
"I believe that mother does want to be a family again. But she might be a bit skeptical." She looked at Klaus. "After all, Nik did kill her."
Elijah walked in holding burnt sage. "No, Athena's right. Mother is acting rather strange."
"She's been dead for a thousand years, Elijah. What's strange for her?"
He walked down the steps and showed his siblings the sage. "Burnt sage." Klaus got up and took it. "She was doing a privacy spell."
"Why would she need a privacy spell?" Athena questioned.
"That's because she wouldn't," Kol replied.
Rebekah rolled her eyes with a sigh. "Why don't we ask Finn? He's been doting on her."
"I don't trust Finn," Elijah revealed. "He hates what we are, he always has."
Athena knew he had a point. Days after they had been turned, Finn had refused to drink from innocent humans. He fought his urges until it became unbearable. Though Athena did the same, she eventually would give in and then feed while Finn wouldn't so Esther had to force him to.
"That's not true," Rebekah defended. "Mother returned for one reason, to make our family whole. She loves us. What trouble are you looking to find?"
Rebekah left the room and Athena looked at her brothers.
"Do you think she's right?"
"I hope so," Elijah replied.
Athena didn't say anything else and left the room as well. Her brothers watched and they knew they were all thinking the same thing.
