Death's Daughter

Part Ten

When she awoke Casta was in what appeared to be an abandoned house, she saw Elena groggily waking beside her when suddenly a man flashed before them whispering something about a taste of Elena. As Elena pleaded and begged with what was now two older vampires Casta simply sat there curious as to why she had been taken. Now that she was awake she could easily kill those in the vicinity but chose not to because, well she was curious and that was that. When she tuned back in to Elena's pleading the older female vampire had finally had enough back handing her into unconsciousness. 

Casta simply raised her brow muttering "I think she wanted you to be quiet." The elder female looked at Casta getting ready to step forward when a scythe materialized seemingly from nowhere in her hand. Shocked the vampire took a step back, chuckling Casta simply set the scythe across her lap letting her magic become uncloaked so those within could feel her power stating, "I don't care what you do with the doppelganger but do not touch me, I do not like to be touched and you will not enjoy the consequences if you ignore that warning" nodding her head the vampire sped to the other room with her cohort.

 Casta simply sat in silence thinking about why she possibly could have been kidnapped, she didn't know anyone and very few people knew her, she liked it that way. When Elena awoke she looked to Casta who simply ignored her when she asked her to save her. Upset at the red heads silence she chose to investigate herself. When a board creaked the vampires realized she was eavesdropping. Casta listened a bit intrigued, an original was on his way there. Now that perked her interest, she'd heard of them before but never encountered any despite her many years on this Earth. She had heard of them from her Lord father, he particularly enjoyed the work of the youngest of the bunch but damned if she could remember any of their names. She looked to who she learned was Rose Marie and asked "now why exactly is an original vampire interested in the likes of me?" Rose answered with "they've been looking for you for a long time." Well that's not vague at all thought Casta with a sigh but figured she would stick around, it's not every day you meet a legend after all.

A sudden knocking on the door led Rose Marie to hiss at her compatriot to stay with the girls and be quiet. Casta finally decided it was time to stand and went to the corner of the room scythe in hand where there were enough shadows to make a quick exit if necessary. She watched as man dressed in a suit sauntered into the room scoffing at the idea of a new doppelganger, when he saw Elena he flashed to her and sniffed her neck in surprise. He looked to Rose Marie in surprise and she nodded before saying, "we also have someone you've been looking for for a long time." 

Hearing this Casta once again allowed her magic to become uncloaked, Elijah felt the new presence immediately and was in awe of the power he felt, he quickly looked around and halted at what he saw. Standing in the shadows of the room was a petite red head with wild flaming hair, someone he thought he'd never find. He sped up to her stopping only when he was met with what appeared to be a scythe to his chest and a sultry voice stating, "woah there handsome, personal space, respect it." He stared in shock before bowing slightly, using manners Casta hadn't seen outside of the wizarding world in two centuries. "My name is Elijah Mikaelson, may I know yours please?" Mentally shrugging Casta curtsied while extending her hand "lady Casta Peverell" when their hands connected she stifled a gasp looking up into his eyes. He smiled down at her gently and was about to move in closer when he heard her urgent voice in his mind, "not here, the doppelganger is not to be trusted, she has the Salvatore brothers wrapped around her finger, but know I am so happy to have finally found you after so long." He nodded his head sharply and continued on with his business relieving Trevor of his head. Casta watched on thinking to herself with excitement that finally she had found one of her mates. 

When they were departing Elena tried futilely to get away saying take Casta and not her earning her a scoff and eyeroll from the red head. She then unintentionally gave up the moonstones location after Elijah ripped her vervain from her neck. Finally as they were departing they heard a crash, again Elijah heard her voice in his mind, "that will be the Salvatore brothers coming to play dashing knights." Nodding once again he set her beside Rose Marie where he believed she would be safe while dragging Elena along.

 Casta subtly shifted into the shadows just outside the realm and watched as somehow the Salvatore's managed to stake him. She shook her head at their arrogance in believing him to be truly dead and watched as they all departed, no mention of her was made from Elena or Rose Marie. Scoffing to herself she stepped back into the realm of the living and crossed to where Elijah was pinned to the wall. Using. Her magic she pulled out the makeshift stake and gathered Elijah to her before swiftly stepping back into the shadows and out at her home outside the wards as he needed to wake to read the address to see her home. She called on arry and asked her to bring her a few bloodbags and a joint, it had been a hell of a night she needed to relax.

Elijah awoke with his head in the lap of his mate and a bloodbag on his chest grabbing it and drinking quickly he looked up to see Casta smoking something and smiling gently down at him. "Well hello there sleepyhead have a nice beauty rest?"
