Bewitched Chapter 3 Mother of all evil
In the courtyard, Bethan and Hayley are munching on an array of fruit and other breakfast food when Klaus comes down the stairs to join them "So, which restaurant's missing a compelled chef?" Bethan asked wiggling her eyebrows Klaus looked at her confused "It's certainly a card I've played in the past, but I had no hand in this..." Klaus gestures to the food on the table for emphasis.
"Hmm. Well, then, I guess we have Elijah to thank?" Hayley sussed Elijah returns to the compound and joins them in the courtyard, and looks confused when he hears their conversation and notices the breakfast spread in front of them "This wasn't my doing..." Hayley frowns "Then, where did this all come from?" The silver lid on the platter suddenly begins to rattle, which startles Hayley, Bethan and Elijah so much that they jump in fright for a moment. Klaus looks uneasy and lifts the platter, which releases two starlings that fly up toward the ceiling, causing the three to reflexively duck to avoid being hit. They all look puzzled and nervous
"What the hell was that?" Bethan exclaimed Klaus reaches for the invitation and opens it. It reads, "Dinner, Your Home, 8PM" "An invitation from our mother." Klaus informs them him and Elijah stare at each other in concern and Bethan spat the strawberry out, klaus, Hayley and Elijah all stare at her "haven't you ever read a fairy tale you don't eat fruit for the wicked witch" Bethan stated.
Klaus stares at the invitation while he stands on the balcony overlooking the French Quarter. He eventually turns to head back into his bedroom, where Bethan is laying flat on Klaus' bed "It is times like this I'm really glad I never knew my birth mother." She states "We have enough enemies here. And now, the war for our home is to be fought against my own family." Klaus was angered "Your wretched mother and her disciples tried to put a carving knife through our baby's heart. I will happily add to the body count." Klaus smiles at Beth as Elijah enters the room with hayley.
"You will do no such thing. Esther's a master in the art of possession. We know whose body she currently inhabits. We must decipher her intentions before she finds a new host." Elijah announced "Well, her last invitation was an assassination attempt on all her children. I think we can assume her intentions are decidedly foul." Klaus reminds Elijah and Beth "please tell me there won't be any ball dancing" she groaned earning a small smile for Klaus Elijah shrugs "Well, then. We have-- " He checks his watch "-- this afternoon to prepare for the worst." Elijah leaves. Beth rolls her eyes, which makes Klaus smile
"The bloom is off the rose, I see" Klaus follows Elijah out of the room, and Hayley rolls her eyes in annoyance before flopping back onto the bed next to Beth "Shut up." Hayley mumbled.
Klaus is in the dining room, where he is making arrangements for the evening's dinner with a group of presumably compelled)caterers. One of the caterers gives him a choice of two different bottles of wine "Skip the salad course. Let's not make this dreadful evening any longer than it needs to be." Klaus chooses a wine and dismisses the caterer just as Bethan enters the dining room taking one of the bottles from the caterer pulling to top off taking a swig.
