It was after sunset when the siblings arrive in front of a gate full of guards. Alexander has told his driver to head back home and doesn't want to risk a life of a shifter, that are rare to find, and now Caden is driving the car, Alexander in the front with him and Elizabeth in the back. They could see the guards pointing guns at them until one knock on Alexander's side that he has to roll the window down to give the guard the letter they received. The guard took the letter and inspected it with a light. Once he saw what he was looking for, he gave a signal to the rest of them to put their guns down and step aside to let the siblings in.

The siblings were guided into a garage where a woman was waiting for them. They got out of the car until the girl approach Alexander. "Mr. Mikael-" the girl was interrupted by Alexander raising his hand. "I'll stop you there. We've been travelling for long time and would like to finish this as soon as possible. It would be highly appreciated if you lead us to them." Caden and Elizabeth snickered on what their brother said and the girl nod at him then began to lead them to the main hall. The siblings were disinterested with the paintings that dated 100-300 years old, for them they have multiple collection of antiques that were older. The siblings could hear conversations behind the door that they are heading in. The girl opened the door and the conversation stopped as her and the three siblings entered. In the middle of the table, Roman stood up for having no idea his friend was arriving but nevertheless came close to greet him and his siblings "Roman. With your confusion, my intuition was correct that it was not you who sent us that letter. Nevertheless, I'm glad to see you again old friend."  Alexander said with a smile and waited for Roman to approach them because if they approach him, the guards my shoot them and that would put the siblings in a sour mood. They all hugged Roman one by one and while that is happening, the rest of the council were confused with the display of affection until one interrupted them. "Sorry to interrupt but in behalf of everyone present, we would like on how you all know each other??" Roman and the Mikaelson siblings looked at the council woman who has a raised eyebrow and expecting for an answer. "We taught him everything he knows." Elizabeth said with a smirk. "With the reunion over, now please tell us why are we here?" Caden said after they greeted their old friend which Roman was now back at the head of the table where he standing prior to the arrival of the siblings. "I agree. What is the output of this meeting with Mikaelson siblings present, Salome?" Roman asked curiously. " To propose a deal for them to be apart-...." "No." Alexander cut her off. "We have told Roman that we have no interest to be a part of your cult. We made an agreement that we will not interfere with your kind and vice versa. If we were asked again, we will have to inform the rest of our family, which you don't want to happened, that you lesser species have a hierarchy system which someone is against unless he was king." Alexander said with a smirk which in turn made his brother smirked and his sister giggle. The council felt insulted and confused on what Alexander said but Roman was neutral about it because he was use to it but one council voice their thoughts and ask. "What do you mean by lesser species? As far as I could tell, we're the same." "Your species need human blood to sustain yourself and can't eat nor drink anything else. My species are the same but we can eat and drink anything as long we keep a healthy diet of blood to keep our organs working and a few other things but doesn't concern you." Alexander explained while he and his siblings took a seat that was provided for them. "What's so special with the rest of your family?" Asked another council member. "Why would we tell you, we've already told you what you need to hear. Annoy us again then you'll know why." Caden smirked which made some of the guards and a few council member felt uncomfortable. With that, the siblings flashed to the nearest guards and killed them. The guards were killed so fast as if they didn't see what happened and all that remains is their bloody goo on where they were standing. "Consider this as a warning. Next time it will be yours." Caden with such calmness it's like he didn't killed anyone. The council were looking at the sibling with such shock due to them being clean besides their hands that are covered in blood. "Hahaha.. I like your kind. Your easy to dispose off." Elizabeth said with a chuckle which made her siblings laugh. "I believe that we must make our leave. They know the end result if they ever interfere with us again. Roman, please escort us out of this building." Alexander said calmly as if nothing has happened that he and his siblings didn't killed a dozen of soldiers. " Ye-yes. Please  follow me." Roman lead them back where they came from and they heard a few gasp that came from the reception. They saw the receptionist looking at them wide eyed and confuse why the siblings has blood on their hands. "Roman... I do hope this will be the last that we will see each other except if it is a friendly visit. You of all people know what my other family members are like." Alexander warned his old friend after they got in the elevator that will lead them out of the building. Roman nodded which at the same time the elevator door opened. The siblings stepped out along with Roman and they all said their goodbyes and sped off. "Finally, their gone." Roman sighed and stepped back in with a determined thought, 'Deal with the issue that his fellow council has caused'.

After a week had pass by, Alexander decided that he should go back and check on the telepath to see if there are any progress with her abilities. Alexander went into his library for he knows that is the only place that his siblings will be when they're awake. "I like the both of you to come with me to Bon Tempe."  Alexander said. "Are we going to check on the telepath?" Elizabeth asked which he nodded. "Finally! I like to meet this telepath. I haven't encountered one in centuries." Caden exclaimed which the other two agreed. "Will we tell the telepath more about herself and why she could read minds?" Caden asked but Alexander shook his head no. "We shouldn't interfere until we have to. I have a feeling she will find out for herself. Also, it's best to blend in. They don't know that there two types of vampires. So we must come out during the night." Alexander said lastly which Elizabeth sighed and exclaimed. "Why should we? You know I hate to pretend to be like them!" Alexander shoot her a glare as if telling her just to go with it which Caden laughed at his siblings but stopped when both of them glared at him. Alexander remembered something, "Do you have any news with Elijah?." "Unfortunately no, he hasn't gotten back to me with anything yet." Replied Caden. "Do you think he's already been daggered by Nik?" Elizabeth asked her two brothers. "He might have but it's best to investigate specially he has another dagger ready to be used." Alexander told them. "Then it's settled, we'll visit the telepath." Caden exclaimed.

The siblings flew on a private plane that was owned by friend of Alexander and would be easier since they will be drinking blood and don't want to do the effort of compelling multiple people to not disturb them. After landing, a car was waiting for them to be dropped of to their temporary home while they are in the area. "I have informed Erik our plan and has told me that he has tricked the telepath to ingest his blood. With that, we'll have her exact location whenever she's endangered." Alexander informed his siblings who both nodded.
