Abrasion (Mikaelson)

Chapter 2: Undone

*the song is Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes*

Evangeline POV:

Katherine grabbed the vampire by the neck and held him off his feet. "Where is he?" She inquired as the vampire wiggled in her grasp, trying to escape. "Tell me where he is and you leave with your heart, fail to do so and I'll feed it to you."

"I don't know where Elijah is, he hadn't contacted anyone in months." The vampire replied for the second time and Katherine tightened her hold causing the vampire to choke. "I swear, I don't know anything."

I placed my hand on Katherine's arm and she turned to look at me. "Let him go, we aren't going to get anything from him."

"Of course we will, it just takes some persuasion."

"Let him go Kat, it's another dead end."

"We've been searching for days, this is the last contact on the list. If he can't tell us anything then we may as well give up searching and go to Mystic Falls ourselves!"

I rushed over to her in a blur and quickly snapped the vampire's neck. "He won't be telling us anything now, we need to find that girl he came with. I recognize her."

"From where? I've traveled with you a lot and I don't know who she is."

"Her name is Theresa, Elijah turned her in 1912."

"Why didn't you mention that earlier? We could have taken her instead, before she had time to escape."

"He," I pointed at the unconscious vampire, "was around when I first met the Mikaelsons, I thought he would be of more use."

"Well she's long gone by now, there's no way we'll find her!"

"Of course we will." I stated, gesturing to the unconscious vampire. "We have her friend and she will come looking for him."

"Not if she believes we are a threat."

"She's not the brightest vampire in the world, she thinks Elijah will protect her from all her enemies. When she comes back we'll snag her and find out where Elijah is hiding. Maybe she'll even call him to come face us with her."

"So what's your plan?" Katherine questioned, grabbing the unconscious vampire and tossing him over her shoulder. "Use this jackass to lure out a petty century year old vampire and maybe her Original sidekick? Your plans just keep getting better."

"It's our only shot at Elijah, now give me his phone."

Katherine rolled her eyes and reached into the guy's pocket, handing me his phone. "Do you know this girl's name?"

"Yeah, it's Theresa." I answered as I pressed on her name in his contacts list.

Theresa: Brad, oh my god, I thought you were dead!

Evangeline: He isn't yet, but if you don't pull through I will have my friend here tear his heart right out of his chest.

Theresa: Give him back to me or I'll kill you.

Evangeline: How do you intend to do that? Especially with my bodyguard being five times older than you.

Theresa: I'm sure you remember Elijah Mikaelson.

Evangeline: He's the reason I'm holding your friend here hostage, I'm looking for him. You can find him.

Theresa: And you can't do that yourself because?

Evangeline: Because he thinks I'm with his little brother Kol, but I can't find Kol. That is why I need you to tell me where Elijah is.

Theresa: I could call him, no need to get all threatening.

Evangeline: I just thought I'd need leverage, you did have me going for a bit though.

Theresa: I've known you a hundred years, what should I tell Elijah?

Evangeline: Tell him his brother is missing and I need to speak with him, then tell him if he ever changes his number again I will personally kill him.

Theresa: You tell him that, I'll just tell him his brother is missing. Where do you want him to meet you?

Evangeline: The bar I kidnapped your friend at, let's say tomorrow night.

Theresa: Alright, it was nice to talk to you again.

Evangeline: Likewise, it's been a while since I've seen any friendly faces from New Orleans.

Theresa: I heard you had a run in with Marcel.

Evangeline: I did, but I escaped.

Theresa: Good, I can't say I'd enjoy seeing him again.

Evangeline: Yeah, it was unpleasant to say the least.

Theresa: Well I'll tell Elijah what you want him to know and you don't need to have anyone kill anyone, okay?

Evangeline: Okay.

I hung up the phone and Katherine gave me a weird look. "What was all that?" She asked.

"All what?"

"I don't know, maybe the fact that this girl didn't even put up a fight. She was all 'I've known you a hundred years' and blah blah blah."

"Believe it or not, sometimes violence is unnecessary."

"I don't believe that, now what do we do with him?"

"We leave him here and go back to the house, then tomorrow I'll meet with Elijah and discuss what we have found out."

-

I sat at the bar, twirling a toothpick around in my drink waiting for Elijah to get here. Theresa had contacted me earlier today to tell me her friend had arrived safely and Elijah had agreed to meet me. It was only 9 now and the bar had just opened up, I wasn't worried that she had fallen through on her end of the deal just yet.

If my heart were beating though, it could match a hummingbird heartbeat. To say I was nervous was an understatement, he had obviously changed his contact for a reason and I didn't know whether it was because he really didn't want to be contacted by anyone or another reason.

A man sat beside me and my breathing stopped, but then I realized it wasn't Elijah. "You look a bit lonely sitting over here by yourself." The man remarked and I resisted the urge to punch him for speaking to me, or eat him because I was hungry.

"I'm waiting for someone." I told him, making sure to say it with a serious tone so he knew I wasn't kidding around.

"Well why don't I keep you company while you wait?"

I turned to look the man in the eyes. "I'm not in the mood, go away." I compelled and the man nodded before disappearing once more I to the crowd. Leaning back on the counter, I had little time to relax before someone else was sitting beside me. "I'm waiting for someone, leave me alone.'

"And here I though you were meeting me." A voice spoke up and I turned to look at the man next to me, his perfectly styled hair and suit gave him away instantly. "Hello Evangeline."

"Elijah."
