The Originals: Amara Potter

Chapter Five: Missing You

Nik and Elijah

From The moment they'd laid eyes on Amara, Nik and Elijah just knew that she was theirs.  And when she said those words, "Always and Forever' they fell hard and they fell fast.  As they watched her grow and tell them about her days and all her ideas, dreams and anything and everything, they shared the same and when they found they were universes apart they were devastated and so they shared more and more until they could share no more, because they wanted her all and to give their own all as quickly as possible, because somewhere deep down they thought that someday the dreams would stop.  And so on that fateful day on February second 2000 when she said those words almost like a goodbye, they knew somewhere in the back of their minds that that was what it was, but it wasn't until the next night when they had ordinary dreams, and not about her, that it finally sunk in, and for the first time in what must have been centuries, they cried.  Soon they were forced to move on, and Nik became obsessed with breaking the curse whilst Elijah became obsessed with getting revenge on him.  And when they found the doppelganger, and they paid attention to her, it wasn't because she was a copy of Tatia whom they loved, or even because they liked her, it was because she was distraction, the only distraction that they had.  

Finn and Kol     

Finn and Kol had been stuck in a box for centuries, and they might just stay that way for centuries longer.  But one day in the endless darkness, they dreamed of her, the little girl who thought her name Freak, and whom they named and raised and put every ounce of love they carried in their bodies into her life, they fell in love just like that.  She would tell them stories of magic and her days of her short life compared to theirs, and they just soaked it up because no matter the experience they knew she was theirs and they would do anything for her.  They would tell her stories of all their adventures as children and as adults and as vampires, and then they would tell her more until they could tell no more and so they listened.  So when she told them she was leaving they were heartbroken, but they knew she'd come back, and then it was back to the endless darkness.  Then came the light and the life and they sprang up to life from being undaggered, they turned to each other and they just grinned, because they were going to see her, and as long as Nik and Elijah were there they would see her.  So when Elijah came up with the plan for revenge, they played along just to tease Nik and Elijah for the long wait, but they weren't really angry, Elijah might be and Rebekah was, and Nik probably was, but Finn and Kol, they were delighted.

3rd POV

"Elijah, why haven't you left?" asked Niklaus as Elijah entered the room with a compelled servant carrying a tray next to him.

"Oh where are your manners brother we forgot dessert," Elijah commented as he pulled the covering off the tray to reveal two daggers. 

"What have you done?" asked Nik, scared

"What have you done?" countered Elijah, "You see I've learned not to trust your vulgar promises Klaus, we're doing this on my terms now."  And then Kol walked in the room and up to Niklaus.

"Kol," Began Niklaus

"Long time brother," Kol smirked

Niklaus backed up slowly before trying to escape which resulted in Finn coming in and blocking his way, before grabbing a dagger off of the tray.

"Finn, don't!" pleaded Niklaus before cutting off with a yell as his hand was run through with a dagger.  Finn pulled the dagger out, and Niklaus ran the other way before Rebekah intercepted him from the other side.

"Rebekah," Began Niklaus, before being cut off with a dagger to the gut.

"This is for our mother," she said, twisting the dagger.  Pulling the dagger out Niklaus was held back by Kol before Rebekah stepped up to him
