Chapter 4 - "You're not my type. You're here for a much different reason."

"Cut to the chase, Silas!" Nadia said over the phone to Silas as Mariposa blew a piece of her black curly hair out of her face as she leant against the car. "What do you want?" Mariposa rolled her eyes at the woman, it was pretty clear what Silas wanted.

"I want Katherine Pierce." Silas told the woman. "What do you think I want?"

"So do I, which is why I took her away from you and Jehovah." Nadia told Silas. "You can have your brown-eyed bitch of a cure for immortality when I'm done."

"But you've had her all night long." Silas complained childishly. "So how much longer do you need?"

"Aren't you immortal?" Nadia asked him. "What's a few more hours to you?"

"Here's the thing, Nadia." Silas said as he looked over to Mariposa slightly, who was gazing around lazily. "I don't really care about what you need. I only care about what I need. I'm a little selfish like that."

"Then why don't you mind-control a whole town of people and find out where I'm holding her?" Nadia questioned the immortal. "Right, you can't." Mariposa began to chuckle at that, making the immortal roll his eyes at the devil.

"I'm very well aware of my current super power predicament, thank you very much, and even though my brain is on the fritz, thanks to an ex-fiancée stalker witch who can't seem to take a hint, that doesn't mean that I'm not still brilliant and crafty and becoming rapidly well-versed in the power of cell phone tracking." Silas explained to the woman, before she ended the call on him.

"I showed you how to track a phone." Mariposa told him matter of factly. "So, therefore you're not brilliant, crafty or becoming rapidly well-versed."

"Shut up, and get in the car!" Silas told her as he opened the door. "Jehovah went to see your friend, Damon to offer him a preposition. We need to pick him up."

"It'd be much better if we left him stranded." She pointed out to the immortal before she climbed into the car, and he closed the car door behind her before he got in the front himself, and began to drive.

"He's also getting us costumes." Silas said as he began to drive.

"Costumes?" Mariposa asked. "For what?"

"This thing at the college!" Silas told her simply. "We're all going." He said and she shook her head softly, she was not looking forward to this.

It turned out Jehovah had a hilarious sense of humour since he was King George III, and she was Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, almost known as King George III's wife. She had a grand looking dress and had her black curly hair pulled into a fancy hairstyle.

Silas was already elsewhere, only Jehovah knew where he was at the moment. Jehovah had a tight grip around her waist, he was under strict orders to keep her close in case she tried to escape, since she didn't have her wrists bound. Mariposa's wrists ached and she didn't like it. "Mariposa?" Damon asked. "You haven't answered your phone."

"I know!" Mariposa told him. "I'm a hostage for this jackass and Silas."

Jehovah chuckled. "She's joking!" He said as his grip on her waist got tighter. "Anyway, you go get your brother, and you'll meet Mariposa in a room where she's on her own, but me and Silas will be around the corner." Jehovah said before the two of them walked off and they got into a room.

As soon as they were in the room, Mariposa used her magic to throw Jehovah away from her. He flew into a wall and crashed against it. "Don't touch me." She snapped at him before he stood up.
