Family First | The Originals

12: Victoria

Victoria's P.O.V

I have them right where I want them. All of them. None of them have a clue what's to come. Not Alice. Not Edward. Not Elizabeth. They'll all fall. I have eyes and ears everywhere.

Things are to be set into place. I need to make sure I have the proper tools to do so. My Darling James prepares for his role in the situation and if everything goes as planned. They'll all be dead. The Cullen's I don't quite care for but because Elizabeth cares for Bella and the Cullen's will do whatever it take to protect Bella....Collateral damage it is.

Over the last few years of my life, I've searched for a way they could be killed. I worried that they could never be killed. Till eventuality stories spread and I heard of a vampire that hunted his children. They feared him, I often wondered why. Then I realized, perhaps there was a weapon to kill an Original. I heard of Mikaels death, as they called him. But I never stopped looking for that weapon.

Suddenly, I met him. The Famous Mikeal Vampire Hunter.

°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°

I walk through the streets of New Orleans, turning a corner quite sharply, bumping into a man

"Watch it." I look up at this man and recognize him, but it isn't possible he's supposed to be dead.

"Mikeal?" His expression changes, as he stands before me a little shocked

"Yes?" I smile, thinking my plans haven't been ruined after all

"I thought you we're dead." He smirks at me

"I am. What is it to you, cold one?"  I wonder if i should tell him the truth, what should it matter, he's been hunting them for years

"I need your help on finding a weapon that could kill an Original" he gives me a questioning look and tells me to walk with him, i keep an eye on my surroundings

"Now, what have my children and that bastard boy done to you?" I stare straight ahead

"Lived." I can hear the smile that spreads across his face.

"If i can't kill them myself, I'll give you the weapon" he stops abruptly and looks at me "and then I want you to give them a message" i nod and he heads on his way

A few days after he meets me at an abandoned location.

"I've made two just in case. Here's your weapon girl. Use it wisely." I take the wooden stake laced with a grey liquid. "If don't accomplish what i am set to do. Kill them"

"I will." He squints his eyes and nods, he whispers softly fearing of other ears listening, he tells me his message to each of his children. Will a quick look, he's gone, I look down at the stake and smile to myself. Time to go Home.

°°°°°°°°°°°°°

Now I have it. The weapon to kill an Original, vervain to keep them weak. Regular stakes laced in vervain to bleed them out, just enough time for a slow and painful death. A mix of newborns are to be apart of my army. Some of my kind, some of theirs. The perfect balance. Oh and how can i forget, I've been told to never go up against an Original without a witch or two.

"My love" I turn to James's voice, he makes his way to me and gives me a kiss "What's bother you?"

"I just think of how this all started....it doesn't matter, they'll have what's coming"

°°°°°°°°°°°°

My family and family friends gathered for a celebration, all though I'm not sure for what. I look for my mother but she is no where to be found. The fun is soon ended by glass shattering, people scream and I worry, i call out to my mother, getting very anxious, i push past people who run by me. Then a pair of hands take my arms I turn to see my mother, my father right behind her, fear in his eyes worry. She holds a glass to me.

"Listen to me very closely Victoria, drink this and run. You get as far away from here as possible and never come back. Just keep running until you're safe" I'm confused, i stare at her wide eyed un able to move

"But mama what about you?" I look up at my father, who has tears in his eyes "and father? What of you both?" She shakes her head as tears steam down her face

"We'll be right behind you" I nod and drink what's in the cup, she takes off a necklace shes held dear. Something her mother gave her as a child. She puts it around my neck and kisses my forehead, my father joins in on the hug.  More screams, more shattering glass

"There may be people who will expect you to do what they ask. Please do whatever they tell you and if you truly don't want to just run." My father speaks, I nod once more, my mother looks at him slightly and back at me

"Go now.." My mother stands back with my father, they stand side by side. I follow their instructions, running. Doing exactly as they said.

I'm still so confused as to what's going on. I know i should keep running, but i can't help but to look back, and check for my parents only to see the house in which they were. Burned. Flames rise and smoke takes over. Body's everywhere. Dead. There was a women in the front, brunette hair, put up in a well put bun. That all who I saw. Tears constantly drip, as the pain becomes more unbearable. I turn to run again but a man stands in front of me, im scared, I freak out. He grabs my chin and looks into my eyes

"Don't be afraid. Don't say anything. Just listen." I remember what my father said, do as they say, so I do, i try to hold in my fear. "Now what do i do with you? I could kill you, leave you for dead like the rest of them. But that would be just too easy wouldn't it? You're....people killed my brother. I killed your people with the help of my family of course. But the questions remains, what will be your fate?" When he speaks he has an accent, he paces back and forth in front of me, as if he's taunting me. He smiles to himself and looks at me once again.

"You will remember this day, and it will haunt you for the rest of your pathetic life. You will remember this day as the day, your family died, murdered, and there was nothing you could do about it. You never saw me or my sister. We don't exist." I hold tears back as i stare at him, he's a monster. The way he smiles like it was some fun twisted game. "Go on now. Before i change my mind" i don't think twice, i run. Running. Running, running.

°°°°°°°°°°°°°°

I am being shaken by James. He looks worried. I give him a smile

"It's almost time. Get ready for your part" he nods and leaves to hunt. To gather strength. He'll need it. I look for my witches and be sure that one is with him at all times. This isn't even the hard part we're only getting started. I smile to myself. Oh you originals. Tick Tock.
