"Should we do something about Davina?" Ari asks.

"I think since we know her location we should tell the Mikaelsons of this information." I say smirking.

"I like it."

Soon, I hear footsteps and they're getting close. Waiting is boring so I did what she did while fixed the poison drink. Except, I only put the first bottle into the drink and the other in my back pocket.

"Come on Amanda. One upset stomach and all this stupid drama is ancient history." As soon as I finish saying that I'm face to face with a vampire.

"Dumb move coming into the quarter. You're coming with me, wolf." He says.

"I'm not dumb, I did this intentionally, and I have a name, it's Amanda. You vampires really do lack manners." I say, smirking. He looks confused but that's only for a second because I quickly throw my drink in his face. I turn around only to see two more but Rebekah snaps the first one's neck and pulls out the other one's heart.

"Now, that is no way to treat a pregnant lady. I do hate bad manners." She says, throwing his heart on the ground. Soon we're outside the house, the bodies are stacked up, and we're being yelled at by none other than Klaus.

"This is why I told you never to leave the house. Werewolves are banned in the quarter. I had a plan and your little nighttime stroll put it all in peril." He says, angrily. One of the guys groan and Rebekah walks towards him only to be stopped by Klaus.

"Leave him! You've done enough, don't you think? Leaving a trail of bodies like a road map right to my doorstep." He asks.

"If I hadn't heard this guy bragging about werewolf heads everyone here would be screwed and don't give me that crap about having a plan. You've had all the time in the world to execute a plan and no one's seen you do a damn thing. Elijah made a deal to protect your child so it could save you from your selfish, rotten self. You obviously don't give a damn about this child or Elijah because what have you done to honor it?" Rebekah argues.

"I. Have. Done. Everything. Let me spell it out for you, shall I? From the day I arrived, Marcel hasn't trusted me. From day one he's had his vampires ingest toxic vervain, which as you know, little sister, protects them from my mind control. I needed a spy, someone on the inside with me whom Marcel would never suspect. So, I created a day zero and got there first. Marcel had just lost six vampires thanks to your little murder spree and he needed new recruits. So, I made the new one mine before he'd had even a drop of vervain, and this one I'm going to drain him of vervain, compel him to believe his mates found religion and moved to Utah before he can explain to Marcel why he lost three more vampires tonight." He says dragging the living-ish guy into the house. We follow him in.

"Does anyone have anymore questions? No? Good, because I have a question. Amanda, what were you doing in the bloody French quarter in the first place?" He asks.

I stay quiet knowing it will piss him off.

"Answer me!" He screams.

"What do you smell?" I ask. Klaus and Rebekah look confused but Ariana understands.

"That's not an answer." He says, impatiently.

"Your answer will determine my answer." I say, vaguely. The two vampires sniff the air a little bit and by the looks on their faces I can tell they've figured it out. Rebekah looks like a mix of 'I understand' and 'I can't believe it.' Klaus looks like a mix of sadness and anger. Awwww, I knew he cared.

"Wolfsbane." He answers.

"Ding ding ding. Now tell me, what is Wolfsbane used for?" I ask, once again smirking. I know what he's going to try to do and that it's going to fail because I'm protected. He tries to attack me but he hits the forcefield and is stopped.

"What's this about? You've been going on about how you didn't want the baby and now that she's ready to get rid of it you do this?!" Rebekah screeches.

He leaves the room, Ariana goes upstairs, Rebekah goes out by the pool, and I go to the room that Rebekah showed Hayley in the show, the one with the coffins. After I grab what I need, I head outside and sit down next to Rebekah.

"I know you don't know me very well, but thank you. I appreciate what you did in there." I tell her.

"You told me what happened to my brother, and besides us girls have got to look out for each other." She says.

"Why don't you just get Elijah back yourself?" I ask, already knowing the answer.

"Because if I cross my brother, there's still a coffin downstairs with my name on it." She says, sadly. I reach down next to me and pull out what I went to grab from the the room. I show them to her and she looks at them in shock.

"Oh my God." She mutters.

"I found them under your coffin. So, if a couple of antique steak knives were the only thing stopping you from getting Elijah, well then...here you go." I say, handing the daggers to her. She smiled and walked off probably to find Marcel. I took this opportunity to get some sleep when I remembered what happens with Haley in the morning, so I head to 'sleep'.
