Klaus, Hope, and Faith were in the courtyard, Klaus fell onto a table, breaking it after letting Hope and Faith unleashed their rage on him, Klaus stood, looking at them.  

"Do it again. Harder, this time. All that pain, that simmering darkness. You need to purge it before it eats you alive" Klaus said.

"Dad" Hope said.

"Give me your anger" Klaus said. 

Faith turned around and yelled, waving her arm as she angrily threw Klaus against the wall, Klaus sat up, breathing heavily as he leaned against the wall blood on his forehead.   "It's not working" Faith said.

"You're guys holding back" Klaus said.

"You really think we wanna feel this way?" Hope asked. "No matter how hard we try to get it out, we don't feel any better. You're not the one we wanna hurt"

Klaus stood looking at all of them. "Give me a name" Klaus said.

"Roman Sienna" Faith said.



Roman was now tied up in the dungeon of the compound, Klaus tossed a bucket of water at Roman, waking him up. Roman coughed and looked at Klaus in alarm, trying to break the chains binding him.

"Come on" Roman said.

"Hove you deiced how you're gonna kill him?" Klaus asked. "Slowly" Hope and Faith in sync.

"Faith?" Roman asked.

He looked and saw Hope and Faith in the shadows. "Hope, hey" He said. With one look, Roman knew something off about them.

"We wanna do this alone" Hope said.

"What?" Roman asked.

"This is supposed to help us feel better, right?" Faith asked.

Roman looked at Klaus. "What's wrong with them?" Roman asked.

"They have an affliction. For which your pain is momentary comfort" Klaus said.

"My pain?" Roman asked. "Yup. But we don't want an audience" Hope said.

"Hope?" Klaus asked.

"If you wanna help us, go" Hope said.

"Well, I was hoping to be part of the show. Well, consider starting small, then. Fingernails or perhaps the tongue. Build the suspense" Klaus said.

"Your opinions will be taken into consideration." Faith said.

Klaus walked away, closing the gate. "Hey, wait, you're not actually gonna leave me here with them, are you?" Roman asked. Klaus ignored him, leaving. "Hey" Roman yelled!

Hope and Faith walk closer, glaring at Roman, Hope placed a knife down on a table as she followed her older sister.



Faith was leaning against the gate, her back facing Roman as she tried to contain her rage, Roman looks at Faith.

"I know you won't believe this, but I've been trying to see you okay" Roman said.

"You're right. I don't believe it" Faith said. Faith raised her hand to use magic on him, then she released him.

"I swear, my sister, she wanted me to leave the country, but I wouldn't go until I got to talk to you" Roman said.

"This the kind of talk you had in mind?" Faith asked. 

"Look, I--I know. Taking a part in your aunts capture, tricking you, that was wrong and I know that" Roman said.

"And you did it, anyway" Hope yelled, making Roman's nose bleed with her magic.
