Elijah Mikaelson & The Dragon's Quest

Chapter 26

Freya set out quietly before dawn to continue her explorations of Salem. She had spent several days doing this with Elijah as her escort but was no closer to finding Davina Claire's missing magic. In a city full of witches Freya Mikaelson decided that she did not need her vampire brother's protection regardless of Angelica's theory about revenge. Any trouble would be a magical one and as a first-born Mikaelson witch Freya was a force with which to be reckoned. The Coven of the Pentadeae were witches like any other and if Charlie and Angelica took down five of their members on their own without witch assistance then Freya most certainly would be able to handle at least that many on her own as a powerful witch. If she found anything of significance, she would contact her brother, sister-in-law, or Charlie before she investigated further.

But for now, she was enjoying the freedom of exploring the city on her own as things had become a little cramped in that small safe house and she desired to find a separate location that would be more conducive to practicing her witchcraft. She enjoyed Charlie's company and the more intimate nature of their relationship but a witch is also somewhat of a free spirit and the nature of Salem with its magical history was just too tempting. Freya's phone buzzed as she looked at the caller identification, it was Charlie. She paused for a moment then pressed the Ignore button sending the call to voicemail.

Alaric Saltzman thanked Elijah for the warning and told him that he would relay it to Bonnie Bennett who coincidentally was arriving at the School shortly to visit with Caroline. Caroline had been trying to recruit Bonnie for years to join the teaching staff at the School and Bonnie was close to accepting. Alaric hung up the phone with Elijah then went to find Caroline.

Marcel Gerard listened intently to Elijah as he relayed Angelica's concern regarding the Pentadeae Coven and Vincent, the Regent of New Orleans. Anything concerning the Hollow and her claim on the City of New Orleans was a priority for Marcel and he thanked Elijah for the information advising he would contact Vincent immediately.

Niklaus had already called Hayley and Rebekah after Elijah called him last night. They decided to keep Hope home from school as a precautionary measure until the Coven's intentions could be sorted out. Niklaus' arrival at home was imminent as he set off the moment he hung up with Elijah. Kol insisted he do so and assured his brother he would be fine and would call him if there was any change to Davina's condition.

Angelica briefed Rafe, Albee and Charlie last night to ensure they were on heightened alert related to Henrik Finn's security. When she arose this morning, she was faced with an annoyed Elijah slamming his smart phone onto the kitchen table being unable to reach Freya who had quite obviously ignored his warning to not venture out alone. Charlie had already tried to reach her to no avail. He was in the process of accessing the GPS on her phone only to discover she had turned off the locator application. "Hold on," spoke Charlie, as he pulled up another screen on his tablet and after a few commands he announced, triumphantly, "Got it." He turned his screen toward Elijah to show him Freya's current position before sending the tracker to Elijah's smart phone. Elijah thanked him, kissed Angelica on the side of her head, then disappeared in a flash to retrieve his sister. "Wait, Elijah, I'm going with you!" she said, nodding to Charlie before she, too, disappeared in a flash into Salem.
