'if loving you's a crime,
then i won't keep my
love locked down for you'

The Mikaelson siblings, plus Hayley and Thea were currently in the woods, on the side of the road replenishing their strength. They had cut off a bus transporting a load of convicts, deciding to give the prisoners their own version of justice. Thea was currently sat on the floor, lent against a tree beside Elijah as the original fed on the prisoner that was laid across his lap.

Kol had left them a few minutes ago, chasing one of the convicts further into the woods. "Good lord, that one has a set of lungs on him," Rebekah commented as she dropped the body of her prisoner to the ground, referring to the screams they could hear coming from the man Kol had chased. "He should have been an opera singer. Might've ended better for him, actually," the blonde stated, earning a small chuckle from Thea in response.

Rebekah smiled at her best friend as she moved slightly to stand by her side, just as Freya walked over to join them. "Is this absolutely necessary?" the eldest Mikaelson woman scolded, earning an eye roll from her younger sister as Rebekah sat down beside Thea. "That depends," Rebekah begun, causing Freya's head to turn away from all the dead bodies strewn around towards her.

"Do you want us at our full strength, or do you plan on rescuing Nik on your own?" Rebekah sassed, earning a smile from Thea as Freya rolled her eyes. "Well, death rattles are distracting and I'm trying to break a cloaking spell," the witch responded, referring to Kol and his prisoner who was still screaming bloody murder.

Elijah sighed as he stopped feeding on his prisoner, "Kol, would you please?!" the eldest brother shouted slightly in annoyance as he pulled a handkerchief out of his pocket to wipe the blood around his mouth. After a moment, the screams quietened revealing Kol had finally killed his convict and stopped torturing him, "thank you," Elijah spoke before turning to Freya.

"You were saying?" the original asked his sister politely, causing Freya to roll her eyes once again. "I can sense Klaus is still in New Orleans. Most likely somewhere underground," the witch began before sighing, "I can't get a read on exactly where unless I'm in the city itself," she revealed. Thea and Hayley both sighed, sharing a look as Kol came back from his feeding, blood dripping down his chin.

"Yeah, that's gonna be a problem," Hayley stated sheepishly as everyone turned towards her, waiting for her to continue, "I have contacts in New Orleans. As you can imagine, the place is crawling with vampires, all of whom hate all of us. Whatever we do, we need to do it fast," the Marshall woman informed the Mikaelson family warningly.
