"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?" THE FEMALE HYBRID'S VOICE RANG THROUGH HER EARS. She had only come down to see if Klaus was ready to leave with his elder brother but instead, was welcomed to the rude attitude of Hayley.
"I suppose Klaus never said anything"
"Not really. So, who. the. hell. are. you?" she asked again, her eyes turning their auburn yellow once more.
She scoffed at the action, knowing most would be afraid of her prowess. She had seen the powerful act and didn't move an inch before raising her eye brows. "All you need to know is that I'm not an enemy, Hayley. I wouldn't dream of hurting you or Hope, might I add"
"How the hell do you know about her? Why the hell do you know my name?" she growled, her fangs nearly showing.
"I'm a friend of Elijah's and Klaus'. It's very complicated and I don't real.y care for explaining to you. So, if you would put away the claws and teeth, it'd be very appreciated, Miss Marshall" she sassed, becoming annoyed.
Hayley soon unsheathed her fangs and lunged for her. She rolled her eyes in exasperation and flung her wrist. She had used her very own magic to hold her in a quite confining way. Hayley was held in place by magic, feeling very short of breath as well. She grunted, attempting to use force to actually move.
"Please release her, we have more concerning issues at the moment" Niklaus chimed in, finally seeing the incident.
"Please, we need to hurry so we can take care of our dilemma" Elijah said as he walked into the courtyard.
She glanced over to them and rolled her eyes once more but flung her wrist again, resulting in Hayley's quick release. Her body fell to the ground, creating a 'thud' of sorts. She groaned, not enjoying the short fall.
"Ugh, fine", she grumbled before turning back to the the female hybrid, "Oh, and take a quick note. I don't respond well to threats, Miss Marshall" she said with a smirk that soon disappeared.
"Who is this bitch?" Hayley asked the two Mikaelsons.
"I'm right here!"
"She is a friend and we have a slight issue"
"Apparently, I had a certain part of my memories wiped by a pesky witch or some other. We are going to find her, well we are, and you are staying here"
"You lost your memories and you are going to kill a witch without me? Why?"
"We don't know what she's capable of, Hayley"
"You three don't even know what I'm capable of!"
"Hayley, this witch is at least half a Millenia old. We don't need dead weight on this little mission, no offense"
"You little—"
"You know she's right. Plus you can search through some other witches during your daily carnage I'm sure, love"
"Please, just stay here, Hayley" Elijah chimes in, sincerely as he puts his hand on her shoulder but its quickly slapped away. He sighs in annoyance.
"Fine, but if you aren't back in at least two days, I will be looking for you two idiots"
"What about me?"
"I don't care about you. Hopefully a crescent gets you on your little mission, better yet, me" she growls as she leaves the courtyard, into the busy city.
THE THREE SOON LEFT AFTER HAYLEY'S THREAT. They ventured into the french quarter, discreetly. They did not want to draw any attention to themselves. With all of NOLA thinking Klaus' child had perished, everyone had been practically deathly afraid of the original hybrid.
After searching through the many buildings for a bit, they finally find a somewhat viable resource of information.
A witch of the trade.
Shante had her resources when knowing where people are and she was infamous for it. Those who thanked or chastised her for it were known to have great experience of her information's ordeals. She was an interesting witch of sorts, most knew her, those who were at least supernatural.
"Shante!" Klaus yelled as the three of them entered the shop, making sure no one else was in the store to interrupt them. "Where is that pesky little witch?"
"Don't scare her off now, Klaus" she said in response, looking around for the infamous witch. "Shante! Cmon! I know you can hear us!"
"Stop your yelling, would you? I have a bad enough migraine after so many sermons" she complains, stepping out from another room.
"Shante, finally! We need your expertise" Klaus says, getting straight to the point.
"And, what would you be doing with my expertise, Niklaus? You're not exactly the noble knight in shining armor" she sassed as she sipped her tea.
"We need to locate a witch" Elijah answers.
"Who's the witch?"
"Adelise Babette" she replied, sighing right after. And, in response to the name, Shante immediately spit out her tea upon the mention of her. She breathed heavily in exasperation and quickly set down her spilt tea.
"Please tell me that's a joke, that's a joke right?!" she motioned, flinging her hands around nervously.
"Not a joke, as much as I would want it to be"
"You have to be insane if you want to find her. She's nearly impossible to find nonetheless!"
"We don't really care" Klaus said nonchalantly, earning a scoff from the young witch. She rolled her eyes and let out a heavy breath.
"What he means is that we have a dire situation at hand"
"What's the dire situation?"
"Niklaus has learned about the 'plan', remember I told the details of it previously?"
"Wait, you mean he still doesn't remember?"
"I mean, he wants his lost memories back and they have foolishly decided to contact Adelise"
"Okay, that is a dire situation but for him", she pointed at the original hybrid, "I don't need to help him. I don't owe him anything"
"You are absolutely correct, but please. We would owe you immensely, Shante" Elijah responded.
"Owing a Mikaelson never works out, hell, helping a Mikaelson never works out!" she yelled out.
"Shante, please. It...was my fault and I need to make up for it. We don't even know if we'll get her help anyways" she begged, now abandoning her sassy personality for the moment. Shante sighed in response, knowing the whole ordeal was not an easy process for her. The two had only spoken briefly but they had quite a friendly connection. Both the Mikaelson brothers had looked at her in understanding, almost. Klaus, more or less, was confused. He did not know exactly what happened before getting part of his memory locked away.
"Fine. I'll see what my resources can come up with. You guys can just wait here for a bit. Might as well plan out this little adventure of yours" Shante says before finally retreating back to her room to get her individual contacts.
The three supernatural beings sat down in her main area, waiting for the results of her attempt.
—— authors note —— Hi so I suddenly remembered I wrote this chapter and even though its utter dog shit & not in the format I've been trying to write, I'd rather go from this point on. It had everything I wanted to include, but like worse. I'm trying to write for my older tvd fics so like...yeah. Sorry—
