Out of Time ❧ Kai Parker ✓

Chapter Twelve

I walked into the French Quarter with Marcel beside me. We were talking about old times.

Hayley is with Hope, my daughter, and Elijah are helping her with the baby. Rebekah is out of town doing her own thing.

I suddenly felt a piece of paper in my hand that was in my jacket pocket. I pulled out my hand and sure enough, there was a piece of paper. A crumpled up piece of paper though.

I stopped walking and Marcel stopped too and looked at me, "You okay?" He asked with concern.

I opened the paper and saw a note. I quickly read it. Then I had to read it again, just to make sure that I had read it right the first time.

This note was from Angelyn. My sister, twin sister. She is alive? But my mom told me that she and Henrik had died to the werewolves.

Marcel must have noticed the shock on my face because he asked if he could read the note. I handed it to him and he read over it. "You have a twin?" He asked once he had finished reading it.

"I did a long time ago. I believed she was dead." I explain to him. "This isn't real, it can't be," I said dismissing the note.

Marcel gave him a look, "I don't know, man. I heard about prison worlds. They are real. So if this is really her, then maybe she has been trapped there for a thousand years." He explains to me and I ponder on his words. "Look we can have a witch trace it and see for sure who sent this."

I nodded my head and we headed out to find Davina. She was in an old church up in the attic.

"Good your here, we need your help," I told her and she gave me a look that said she wasn't going to help me.

"And why would I help you?"

"Do it for me, okay," Marcel says and she nods. "Okay," he hands Devina the note. "I need you to trace this and tell me exactly who sent it."

Davina takes the paper, "Okay." She holds the paper in her hand and begins chanting. When she stops she looks at me. "Angelyn." I can feel myself start to pale. "She sent it. Her and this guy named Malachai, there trapped in a 1994 prison world." Davina confirms.

"Okay, how do we get her out? In the note, she said that she needs Bennett blood to get out." Marcel asks.

"In Mystic Falls," I add. "There's a Bennett."

"I can send her to the prison world if you want me to." She tells Marcel.  He looks at me and I nod.

Now that I know she's alive, I will stop at nothing to get her back.

..................

I and Kai impatiently waited around the house for a response. It had been hours since I had sent it.

"Maybe, it didn't go through," Kai suggested.

I shook my head, "No, I know it did" I start pacing the room getting anxious. "Maybe he doesn't remember me." The thought of him not remembering me terrifies me.

Just then a piece of paper appears on the table. None of us reach for it, we just stare. As if we don't believe it is really there.

I finally grab it and open the paper.

Angelyn, I am so sorry. I did not know you were alive. If I had known I would have come to you. Mother told us that you had died along with Henrik.

I have a witch that is helping me. She is going to send a Bennett witch to your prison world.

Don't lose hope. We will see each other again my dear sister.

-Klaus.

My hands start shaking as I hand the note to Kai. He doesn't hate me. He remembers me. He's going to save me. He's going to save us.

I look up at Kai to see him smiling. "Good thing for you brother, or else we might have been trapped here for forever." I smile at him and bring him in for a hug.

"I can't believe it!" I say as I continue hugging him. "I love you." I blurt out before I can stop myself. I feel Kai tense and he pulls me back.

He looks are in the eyes, "Yeah, I have that effect on the ladies." He says as he pulls me in for a kiss. I can tell that that is his way of saying he loves me too.

Eighteen years. That is how long he has been here. That is how long it took us to admit we have a feeling for each other.
