two.

SERAPHINA after having awoke from her slumber looked between the two men who hadn't yet realised that she was now awake as they sat near the foot of the bed discussing matters of the baby and their city.

"and how do we not know that this woman is one of them? I have brought into the world a weapon they can use against me." One man said sadly before he caught Seraphina's eye and abruptly ended the conversation giving her a questioning gaze.

She gave them a calculated stare not knowing what their next move was to be. She cleared her thought as she began to address them. "Who are you? And what am I doing here exactly?" She asked them trying to sound confident.

One of the men chuckled at her words as he pushed himself off of the doorway. "Who am I? I'm Klaus Mikaelson. The better question is who are you my dear? You're the one who tried to kidnap my newborn daughter."

Seraphina flinched slightly at his tone but she didn't let it show that she was frightened of the man. "If I remember correctly I saved your daughter. It was the witches who were trying to kill her I presume." She huffed looking between the man named Klaus who gave the other man a surprised look. "A simple thank you would suffice." She told them as the other man coughed to hide his laugh.

"She is a fiery one Niklaus." He chuckled as he adjusted his sleeve, looking into the room adjacent to the one they were in at a woman who was sat holding her baby.

Klaus scoffed in disbelief "Why would you try to save my daughter? I don't believe we've met before and everyone else in this town seems to want the opposite. So what's so special about you?" Klaus asked as he stepped towards the woman.

"I can't say." Seraphina said truthfully as she wasn't to sure herself. She didn't know why she was to be the one to protect the child or what she was even suppose to do.

"You can't say? I will allow you five seconds to think about it before I rip your heart from your chest if you don't tell me what I want to know." He sped over to her and held her up against a wall by her neck.

Surprisingly she shoved him off and took a few steps back to create some space between them. "I can't tell you because I don't know myself. I'm not suppose to be here, at least I don't think I am..." She explained as she started to mutter to herself trying to make sense of the situation she was put in.

She couldn't remember much the last memory she had was watching her dragons fall before her eyes as a local witch put her under a spell telling her that there was nothing left for her there and that she had a bigger purpose to fulfill and that the child must be protected at all costs.

"So I assume we're suppose to believe this nonsense you speak of? What do you take me for?" Klaus asked the woman as she recited it to them.

"I don't understand it either but it's all I know. Why would I lie to you?" She asked him.
