Young, Stupid and a Mikaelson (On Pause)

Chapter 15

As I drive through the countryside, my phone rings. "Hello?"

"Safiya. My dear sister, I'm assuming you're hiding somewhere."

"Yes, Elijah. I'm safe and sound driving to an old safe house of mine," I say as I look at the cow in the fields as I drive past.

"Safiya. Niklaus is dead."

I slam on the breaks. "Elijah what the bloody hell, happened he was supposed to be safe."

"Alaric Saltsman killed him and then he himself died."

"Elijah. Our brother is dead. Why are you so bloody calm?" I scream on the phone. 

"Because Safiya, none of his sire lines is dying off!"

I take a deep breath before saying, "What?"

"None of his lines are dying and its been hours," He responds.

"So what does that mean, Elijah? Does that mean he's alive? Or is it different because he's a hybrid," I ask in rapid succession.

There is a long pause before Elijah responded, "I don't know, but I need you to do something for me."

"What?"

"I need you to go back to Mystic Falls and check on Rebekah. I haven't heard from her since she called about Niklaus's death," He instructed.

I make a u-turn as I say, "She's a big girl Elijah.

"I'm aware but I still concerned plus she is the reason why the hunter is dead."

"What the bloody hell does that mean?" I ask as speed off down the road.

"Our mother linked the life of the hunter to Miss Gilbert," He said somberly.

"Bloody Hell."

As I pull into the mission driveway, I don't see any movement in the house. 

"Bekah, are you here?"

Silence. Complete silence.

"Rebekah Mikealson, where the bloody hell are you?" I yell throughout the house. 

I continue through the house, but in the end, I was unable to find anything. 

"What to do now?" I say to myself. "Well, there are two people who might know."

I press Caroline's number. It rings for a few minutes until preppy voice answers, "Hello?"

"Caroline?" I ask hoping that I took the right number off Nik's phone.

"Yes, who's this?"

"We never formally met but my name is Safiya Mikealson. I'm one of Nik's younger siblings."

"Ohh ..." She said drawing out the syllable. "What could I do for you?"

"I was just looking for my baby sister. You haven't seen her have you?" I say as I make my way front of the house.

I hear arguing in the background until a male voice comes on the line. "Safiya, how is my favorite baby sister?"

I roll my eyes as I say, "Not funny. Whoever this, needs to hand the phone back to Caroline and tell me  where my sister is."

"Love, it's me," the voice says 

"Nik is dead, so whoever you are, this is not funny."

"Safiya Nikole Mikealson, what will it take for you to believe me?"

"Nik?" I ask.

There is a sigh on the other line before Nik says, "Does it really take me saying your middle name to believe it's me?"

"Well, I'm sorry Nik, but I was told you were dead!" I yell at the phone.

"You don't have to scream love."

"Nik, where the bloody hell are you and where the bloody hell is Bekah?"

"I'm in the woods with Caroline and some others. As for Rebekah, she should be fine. She was captured by a group of vampire hunters but she'll be fine. But could you do a favor, there are some bags of Elena's blood in a case at the house. I need .."

"I'm not going to whatever you were going to say, just stop, Nik."

"Wow, you're in a mood."

I start laughing. "Oh, I'm sorry Nik. How am I supposed to react when I thought my brother was dead and now my sister is being held by a group of hunters?"

"Well, I'm sorry. How about you wait at the house and I'll be over soon and hopeful Bekah will be too."

I clench my jaw. "Fine. I'll be a good little sister and sit still. But if neither of you are back here in 24 hours, I'm leaving."

"Thank you, love."
