Caroline's POV-

I laid beside the water my stomach twisting into knots knowing what I had to do. It came to me like a brick to the face. Mikeal was gonna kill his children and not gently either. I had to stop it, warn them before Mikeal got a chance to turn them into beasts like me. 

1 hour earlier-

I walked through the village enjoying the day and I was extremely excited about the festival that would be held tomorrow afternoon. Just then a hand grabbed my upper arm and spun me around. Qetsiya stood there looking furious.

"What is it," I ask worriedly.

"That girl you drank from she bled out. You killed her Caroline." She whisper yells. Instantly I feel my heart drop and my legs give out. Luckily she catches me and holds me up.

"No, you will deal with this. You will take the pain that comes with taking a life. You overdid it this time Caroline. But you will take this and learn." Tears streak my face as I go to talk but she interrupts me.

"But in your defense, not all was entirely your fault. I forgot to tell you that you could heal people with your blood." I look up at her finally meeting her eyes.

"I..... I didn't mean to I swear I promise it's,-"

"Oh stop it, child, it wasn't your fault. Calm down this will soon pass over we'll blame it on an attack by a beast of the night."

A million thoughts ran through my head. The one that screamed at me called me a monster. How could I live with myself? I gathered up my dress and ran until I fell to my knees by the river crying about the life I took.

Flashback over:

I was a disgusting person/thing I took a life and now I was gonna have to see the Mikaelson's take lives. I couldn't see them do the same evil I had. I stood up and began to walk to their house thoughts of how they would see me in my head. Just as I reach the door I fall to the ground my head throbbing. Qetsiya and Esther stand they're red-faced.

"Do you have no sense," Esther says helping me up.

"What are you speaking of," I say dusting my dress off and rubbing my temples.

"You must be thick headed to think it's okay to warn them about what's to come."

"What," I say actually shocked she knew.

"I am not idiotic I know you love them but this is what's best."

"How do you know. Esther, I killed a girl today. The amount of guilt I feel haunts my every thought. How do you know they won't do or feel the same way I do." She looks down thinking hard.

"Because they musn't." She says this and looks around and I notice nobody's around.

"I'm sorry Caroline." I go to say what but everything goes black.


"Father what have you done to Caroline!" I hear Niklaus' voice ring out.

"OH SHUT UP BOY," Mikael yells annoyed. My eyes flutter open to see a worried face Nik.

"Are you okay." He whispers making me smile.

"Yeah, I'm fine-." I stop and my face changes as I remember what was going to happen.

"Niklaus you need to go get your siblings and run away, never turn back," I whisper seeing Mikael behind him glaring into Nik's back. My heart drops when the rest of Nik's siblings walk in and stare quizzingly at the scene before them.

"Caroline what do you mean." He says grabbing my hand. Just as the words leave his mouth Qetsiya and Esther walk in the room with sour expressions.
