Renaître

She's Gone .

The words seemed to rattle him but he had remained composed even though he had wanted to come apart , to rip off his own skin . The brunette had been dead for months , had been somewhere where he couldn't reach unless he had found himself on the other end of a white oak stake , but even granted with the opportunity he couldn't leave behind his family , Niklaus . Marcel calling his name had pulled him to the surface once more , blinking and nodding his head slightly to signal that he had understood and that he would do what it took to help him find her .

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Davina didn't know what to expect when it came to the afterlife , or even what to expect when she was being sacrificed for her coven , her magic seeping back into the ground and into the ancestors well to be replenished . But when she had been sacrificed there wasn't much that she could make out , there wasn't anyone there , a black hole that had her feeling as if her soul had been sucked out of her body , leaving her naked and afraid . Eyelashes flutter as her heart picked up pace , wondering if it was possible to have heart palpitations when you were dead , but the sound of other people came from a distance . she had wanted to call out but she couldn't seem to talk , she had wanted to scream for help but the voices sounded more like mocking and she had felt this coldness as the words became clearer . The ancestors were disappointed , mad and they were going to punish her for what she had done . She didn't know how long she had been there , but the feeling of the silence and the emptiness had become the only thing she knew until she felt a pull and light had come to her senses again , waking up in what had looked like a crypt .

It took a few hours to get herself back together , to get in touch with the reality that she had come back and the blood on her dress had only made it more real , had set in stone of what had happened to her . The petite brunette didn't know how much time had passed , didn't know what had been happening or who the first person to search for would be , but Elijah had pulled at her heartstrings and she had wanted nothing more than to feel him there with her . Still dressed in her bloody white dress she had made her way to the Mikaelson compound , moving around carefully as to not disturb anyone with her attempt of getting to the eldest male Mikaelsons room but had quickly regretted her decision when she had arrived at his room . The feeling of her heart shattering in that moment should have been loud enough for even a human to hear , seeing him laying in bed with someone else and trying not to allow her emotions to cloud her judgement before turning and disappearing once more .

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

She didn't know where she had planned on disappearing to , but she had known that she couldn't stay there , she couldn't see the man who had taken every part of her and crushed it in his grasp . one second she was in the Mikaelson compound and the next she had been changed , packed and on a bus to San Fransisco , wishing to go anywhere but there . The loneliness had scared her , memories of what the ancestors had threatened only stalled her ability to practice magic but once outside the border of New Orleans , even Louisiana she had tapped into nature to create a spell that would render her invisible , as if she hadn't been walking the earth anymore . Hours turned into days and she had found herself at a bus terminal in San Fransisco with nowhere to go , nothing planned and very little money in her pocket .

It had taken a while for her to get back to feeling normal , to get back to being comfortable in her skin . Three months had passed since she had fled from Nola , having taken residence inside of an old church , finding it fitting for she had been locked away like Rapunzel in one for many months before and had found herself a steady job at a local bookstore . Every day had been the same for her , her routine becoming something that she didn't think much about since she had known that at this point she was just living to live and there wasn't much else she had looked forward to , until she had met Kaleb Westphall . He had been a regular at the bookstore , his wit and his smile had intrigued Davina , urging him to ask him out but every time she had thought of it she would talk herself out of it , not wanting to know what it felt like to be hurt . So more time had passed and he had asked her out and with her accepting she had found herself wanting to dig deeper into what they could be , but every time things would get serious elijah would appear in her mind and she wouldn't be able to continue . But it had only happened once and there had been some consequences to her actions that she would have to face.
