The Originals & The Legacies

Chapter 5: Don't It Just Break Your Heart

*Nighttime-Marcel's Old Penthouse*

Klaus bursts through the doors and makes an announcement to the vampires on the floor, "Rise and Shine, Nightwalker Nation. Whether it was your aim to get my attention, I must say I'm wildly successful and I am now singly focused on your impended suffering." The vampires looks at him scared as he continues and declares holding the gold Nazi swastika symbol and says, "And to whomever sent this coin and took my daughter's mother... He kicks the stool and it breaks and he continues serious, "It's time to show your face!" He drops the coin on purpose and it rolls on the floor and he vamps-speeds over to a corner and grabs two wooden stakes and stakes a guy in his chest and vamps-speeds over to a girl whose seating in a chair behind the pool table and grabs her out of the chair fast and bites her in the neck and then he flashes over to the other two guys and throws one of them on the floor and stakes the other. The coin stops spinning and Klaus looks over to the guy with a smile as he gets up and tries to make a run for the door and Marcel flashes in front him and punches him in the face and he falls onto the floor in pain and Marcel says sternly to his guys and remarks with a smile, "Well don't look to me for help? Ya'll lost your chance when you traded loyalty for protection!" Klaus grabs the guy by his leg and drags him over to the window and remarks with a smile, "This will mark your last opportunity to confess!" The guy puts his hands up and admits, "Look, I don't know anything!" Klaus smiles and retorts, "Well that's a pity for you than!" He grabs him by the throat and opens the black curtains and holds him up to the window and the guy screams in pain as he gets burned in the sunlight and Klaus throws his burning corpse on the floor and Greta walks in wearing a white sweater, black leggings and heels and picks up the coin and reveals to them with a smile, "It is me that your looking for and perhaps we should talk?" They look at her shocked and pissed off.

*The Garden*

Greta is chained up laying on a stone rock with her arms slit and her blood drips on the floor and Klaus is in the corner and lighting candles and finishes and says to her with a smile, "You know for someone who organized this little summit? Your woefully short on details!" He blows the match out and looks over to her and says sternly, "So I'm going to ask you one last time... He walks over to her and asks, "Where are you keeping Caroline?!" She says nothing and he sighs annoyed and grabs her fast and sits her on the rock and then flashes back over to her and stabs her hands with nails to keep her in place and she groans in pain. He smiles and retorts, "You knew we'd have this little chat. No doubt you binged on Vervain till your throat was red and raw? And now it's sadly dripping all over the floor it goes!" She responds and says in German, "Der Mangel an Vision, wird sein Untergang sein!" He responds and says, "The Lack of Vision will be his downfall!" He smiles and she nods and remarks to him indirectly bout her husband, "That's what he always said bout you!" He takes a step forward and looks at her confused and says, "He?" She nods and reveals, "You and I have a friend in common!" He seats down across from her on a stool and remarks to her sarcastically, "Oh I sincerely doubt that." She responds and says sternly, "It's true. August Müller!" He still looks at her confused and she comments, "I don't blame you for forgetting. It was a long time ago. Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Springtime Germany 1933!"

*Flashback-1933 Germany-Afternoon*

A girl with long auburn hair is playing the piano off to the side of the bar. August is painting on his canvas and says to Klaus and the audience whose seating in chairs and couches from a far, "The purpose of art is to portray life as it is. And that world of it's joist art must reflect that beauty, but when non-existence is set without unrest humiliation, hyper inflation and the indignity of respirations. Art must necessarily be equally drab and ugly." Klaus is wearing all black clothes and seating in a couch and smiles and retorts to his opinion of that and says sternly, "Or perhaps August, the ugliness is a result to the artist, lacking any dishonorable talent!" August glares at him upset and Klaus laughs and continues, "The mission of art is to engage in our primal selves... A girl with long black hair is seating across from Klaus wearing a green dress with a black floral pattern, her legs rested across his lap and he grabs her by the neck and makes her sit up and he leans forward to her and lays a hand on her leg. He continues and says with a smile, "To inflame our passion... August watches as he lets go of her and she leans back in the chair again and August continues painting as Klaus continues, "To provoke our insides... Klaus rest his hands on her arm and says, "It should inspire us to drink, broil and give us our essential race of reign." He kisses her hand and smiles. Elijah is standing near the piano wearing a navy blue suit and speaks, "Derivative!" August looks over to him as he continues, "And so extraordinary tedious... Klaus smiles and sighs annoyed as he continues and states his claim and walks over to them and retorts, "I wouldn't argue with this fool and he's not going to listen to any word you'd say. He's simply waiting for you to draw a breath so that he might pontificate anew... Klaus moves the girls' legs off of him and says to her with a smile, "Excuse me for a sec love." He stands and walks over to Elijah and remarks, "I believe your thinking of my brother Elijah, he's the pompous, controlling one." Klaus smiles and Elijah retorts to him with a smile, "Interesting, I always thought that Elijah was the enigmatic and charming one? A truly distinguished element of the family." They smile and Elijah looks at him and comments, "In thirteen days, you don't look a day over a thousand. How are you doing Niklaus?" Klaus smiles and hugs him overjoyed and says, "I've missed you." Elijah whispers in his ear and warns him bout Mikael, "I'm afriad your word in Germany has spread, rumors of Mikael have ran across Europe!" Klaus nods and says sternly, "Come... Elijah walks past him and over to a table and seats down in a chair and waits for him to join him as he says to August sternly, "Sit tight August, I'll get back to your hackery momentarily!" August says nothing and watches them talk and Elijah comments, "A little friend of yours?" Klaus remarks with a smile, "Hardly." August goes back to his painting and paints the Nazi swastika symbol.
