Rebekah and Elijah were walking through the French Quarter streets, talking about recent events. When Rebekah mentioned that someone might've stolen the magic for The Harvest, it wasn't exactly surprising, but he didn't have too much to say, dealing with the fact that Katerina was still gone.

"Rebekah, we are all devastated by the outcome of this ritual," Elijah reminded her.

"That's just it. There was no outcome. We both know that power like that doesn't just vanish. I say someone stole it. I'd like to know who, and then maybe I'll make them my ally. I'm tired of being threatened and controlled by our tyrant brother. If you wanted to stop a bully, you need the power to stand up to them," she replied, thought it really only depended on who had stolen it. If it was an enemy, she'd take them down. If it wasn't an enemy, then she'd ally herself with them.

"I expect such behavior from Niklaus. It's so very disappointing when it comes from you, Rebekah. Do you not see that, in his way, he's making an effort here?"

"Yes. He's in a brilliant mood now, but for how long? It's his trick, Elijah. He lulls you into a false sense of camaraderie and kinship, and then he turns on you like a snake. I fall for it every time and wind up with a dagger in my heart for my trouble. No more."

"I believe that he is approaching some semblance of peace here. Leadership may, in fact, be a good thing for him. Now, sister, please, I ask you, if you cannot support him, then at least do nothing to provoke him," Elijah replied. "Speaking of family though, Katerina told me something. She had a plan b. You remember the story of Freya. Turns out, our elder sister is alive."

"How is that even possible? We were told that she died. It happened before we were born," Rebekah replied.

"Our mother lied to us. Katerina took me to a place in the French Quarter where Freya slumbers. If Freya is as powerful as Katerina told me, she can help us get Katerina and Davina back. There's a catch to this, though. Freya has been a prisoner to our Aunt Dahlia since she was a little girl, because our mother used magic since she couldn't have children. The eldest of each generation was the price. Dahlia is as powerful as our mother. If we wake up Freya, we risk Dahlia waking up early, as well. Are you willing to risk facing another demon to have the ones we care about back?"

"Of course. What are we waiting for?"



After Freya was awoken from her slumber and Elijah and Rebekah explained to her how they found her, as well as why they woke her up early, Freya was more than ready to help. She agreed that she would help, because though she didn't know Davina, she knew Katherine very well.

"We have to work quickly," Freya told them, as they walked through the streets, once she'd located where the stolen Harvest magic was. Then, when they found out who stole it, it looked to be a witch named Sabine. The one with the visions. Elijah sensed that something was different though, so he assumed her to be someone else inside Sabine. They couldn't do anything though, because Sabine was touring through the cemetery, so there were witnesses.

"Well, now we know who stole the magic," Rebekah stated.

"I don't think that's Sabine," Elijah said.

"It's not. Other than Katherine, who have or are you still in love with? I feel like she was once close to you," Freya said.

"There was one other person," Elijah stated. "A witch. We can deal with her later. At least, we know now. Are you able to bring Katerina and Davina back now?"
