Y/n: For centuries people have come to New Orleans looking for a fresh start, hoping to find fortune, adventure, even love, young society women imported from France with the promise of marrying a proper New Orleans gentleman. Like the legendary Casket Girls. Little did they know  that the men who awaited them were far from proper and not at all gentle. The Casket Girl's legend lives on, now celebrated in typical New Orleans fashion with stylish costumes and supernatural flair. It's a yearly reminder of how women can be oppressed by selfish men and how the can triumph when brave enough to fight for themselves.

As Hayley tries on a dress for the Casket Girl's celebration, Y/n was looking through a trunk Rebekah has of jewelry for her outfit for that night. When she finds no jewelry, she walks back to where the other trunks to return the trunk she has only to see Hayley returning the dress she had, where she had it. They saw Rebekah watching her brother and his vampire minions getting to search for Davina. Hayley asked. "So the witch is missing, huh?" Y/n's eyes widen as she is barely hearing the news. Her mind flashing back to what happened last night. She puts them to the side. "Wait, Davina's missing?" Rebekah turned her head to face them. "Walked right out the front door, apparently. Know anything about it?" "No." Both girls answered honestly while Hayley continues. "Although, I did tell her the witch elders were." Y/n's eyes widened once more as she physically slaps forehead before dragging it down her face and then starts pacing. Rebekah sees this. "Well, why would she care the witches tried to kill her in their ritual?" "I think it was more that Marcel didn't tell her that the one thing preventing her from being free had been eliminated." "So, you are the reason she's run off which now has Y/n so worried that if she continues walking she's gonna start getting all the vampires annoyed." Y/n stops pacing and looks at Rebekah with a glare while Barbie Klaus smiles at her innocently. "Oh, I'm sorry that I am worried about her walking the streets of New Orleans angry at Marcel with her magic uncontrollable." Hayley stopping a potential fight speaks up. "Hey," she made sure she kept her voice down so none of the vampires or Klaus would hear. "I was just telling her the truth. She was the one who realized they were just using her to keep their control of the witches." Y/n being annoyed and angry at Hayley glared at her. "Hayley you don't understand. That's not the reason why we took Davina in." Rebekah speaks up knowing not to get Y/n mad. "Well I've never been a fan of the boys' club. Just wait, Elijah will join them and the three of them will be impossible." The girls glanced over at Klaus to see talking with Marcel.

"Used by witches, lied to by Marcel, lies to by Marcel, manipulated by Elijah, threatened by Klaus. Just like a modern-day Casket Girl." Y/n and Rebekah say together before looking at each other before chuckling. "Are you talking about Davina or yourselves?" Y/n sighs her thoughts coming back but she shakes them away. "Doesn't matter." Rebekah continues. "Either way, us girls have got to stick together." As time passes by Y/n is sitting in one of the rooms with Klaus and Marcel when she feels something...magic. She gasps which gets the two vampires attention. "Y/n?" Marcel questions both walking over. Klaus grabs her  face, visions start running in her head. She snaps out of it. "Someone's using magic to try to find Davina." The boys look at her before looking at each other. Klaus speaks up. "Well then, we'll just see who finds her first then."

As night time hits the city Rebekah and Y/n walk one of the party filled streets to find the guys. When the walk in deeper they here  Klaus say. "You don't like festivals." "I don't see why not? Who doesn't love a street fair?" Rebekah and Y/n show up arms linked. "Sister, Y/n, come to help us find our stray?" "We can't let your secret weapon get in the wrong hands, can we?" Everyone looks at Klaus. "For the record, we are moments away from retrieving her." "Recognize that time of voice, Niklaus. Clearly, you have some diabolical machination. What is it?" Elijah says. Klaus walks away everyone still looking at him. Klaus walks to Timothy. Everyone still watching Klaus as he is on the phone with Josh. He hangs up and looks at them. Timothy still being compelled by Klaus.
