Bewitched
Chapter 14
God save the princess

Kol has arrived at his playhouse, where he's pacing around angrily, clearly upset and anxious about his current situation. He loses his temper and smashes a bunch of glass candle holders on the table before swiping the wreckage onto the floor. He falls onto the nearby couch and starts to cry, running his shaking hands through his hair while he considers his options. Suddenly, his nose starts bleeding, and he anxiously wipes it away. After a moment, his phone rings, and he answers it. It's Finn, who is sitting in his car somewhere.

Kol furiously "Are you calling to gloat, you venomous, venomous animal?"
Finn laughs "There's no need for such language! I'm calling with a proposition that might motivate me to spare your life."
Kol gasps and sits up "You've got my interest."
Finn "I need you to draw some of Klaus' blood. Bring me some in an hour, and I'll heal you."
Kol quickly stands and picks up the paragon diamond he stole from the Dowager Fauline off of the desk "It would be my pleasure." He smirks

Safe house/Mikaelson Compound

Elijah leaves the horse stable in the yard with a toolbox and a radio and gets to work on repairing the ranch-style fence around the property. He starts hammering a nail the normal way, but after a moment, he grows bored and uses his vampire strength to hammer it in with one stroke. Meanwhile, Klaus is trying to call Elijah from the compound, but when he doesn't answer, he starts yelling into his voicemail as he walks down the stairs, while Rebekah follows behind him

Klaus frustrated "Pick up the damn phone, Elijah! Finn is trying to find Hope!" He yells in to the phone before he hangs up
"She's safe! It'll take a hundred witches to break the cloaking spell." Rebekah tried to reinsure her elder brother .
"I would've said the same about Mother finding you, and yet, a flock of starlings later, and here we are!" The hybrid yelled out
"He won't let him get to her, Nik. But you need to remain calm." Rebekah tried again

Suddenly, Kol storms into the courtyard "Our brother doesn't do calm." Kol angrily states
He throws a handful of powder into Rebekah's face, which causes her to go limp and fall to the ground. When Klaus rushes toward him, he holds out a hand and casts a spell that makes Klaus begin coughing up blood onto the floor while Kol clutches the paragon diamond in his other hand.

"UGH! Stop!" Klaus begged but kol was enraged "Oh, you're angry, are you? Well, join the party, I've been here a thousand years!" Klaus lunges for Kol, but Kol just hits him with another spell, and he falls to his knees
"I was building that dagger to protect myself against you, Nik. I'm not the bad guy in this chapter of our family's story! I'm the wronged! I'm the dead, but never mourned, and whilst you got everything that you wanted. I got a family who didn't care if I lived or if I died!"

Klaus was furious "Oh, shut up!"
He vamp-speeds toward Kol and grabs him in a choke-hold as he slams him against the wall "WE'VE ALL SUFFERED! WE'VE ALL BEEN WRONGED!"
Kol started gasping for breath "Go on! Go on, finish it off!" Klaus looks torn "Go ahead, kill me!"
Klaus glares at Kol for a long moment before finally letting him go and dropping him to the floor. He takes a moment to calm himself before he speaks.Klaus incredulously " i'm not going to kill you, you idiot! Despite your behavior, you're still my brother!"
