Chapter Twenty-Five
MIKAELSON COMPOUND
The next day, in the study, Christy is looking through some books on the bookshelves.
{Christy's Outfit}
Mathias slowly walks inside the study. He and Christy exchange glances at each other.
"Hey, Christy." Mathias greeted her.
"Hey, Mathias." Christy greeted him back.
"What are you up to?" Mathias asked, pouring himself a bourbon, and sits down at the bar counter.
"Looking for a book containing some information." Christy said to Mathias, and gently pulls out a book. "I think I have it."
Christy slowly walks over to the sofa and sits down. She opens the book and flips through the pages.
"Find the information that you're looking for?" Mathias asked her.
"I have. Thanks to the Elder God of Knowledge, Tithonus." Christy replied.
"Okay. I'm taking Freya and Nikole to the cafรฉ." Mathias said.
"Okay. Say hi to Freya and Nikole for me." Christy said.
"Sure will." Mathias said, drinking his bourbon in one gulp, and walks out of the study.

Minutes after, Christy is sitting on the sofa, looking at a page containing information about the ancient Emperor Junius.
Klaus slowly walks inside. "Reading more about ancient Emperor Junius?"
"Yeah." Christy told him. "Where's Luna and Trinity?"
"With Hagarth at his hut house." Klaus told her, and sits at the bar counter. "I must say our daughters loves visiting Mount Orasani."
Christy chuckles to herself. "Yeah, they do. Very much."
Klaus gently takes the decanter of bourbon and pours himself some bourbon in a small drinking glass.
Suddenly, Christy senses something off as she gently sets down the book on the coffee table.
She gets up and slowly walks up to the window curtains.
"Chris?" Klaus said to his wife with a concern in his British accent. He gets up and slowly walks up beside her. "What is it? What's wrong?"
"Something's wrong." Christy said, worriedly.
Klaus and Christy exchange worried looks at each other.
Christy's phone buzzes in her jeans pocket and looks at it.
Max
Christy answers her phone. "Max? You sensed it to, didn't you?"
"Yeah, I did. What the hell is it?" Max asked on the phone.
"I don't know, but I think it's Emperor Junius. Someone awakened him." Christy said to Max.
"Who would be idiotic to do that?" Max asked, bewildered.
"Don't know, Max, but we're gonna find out." Christy said.
"Alright." Max said, and hangs up his phone.
Klaus and Christy exchange concerned looks at each other.

MUSEUM OF ORASANI MYTHOLOGY
Later on that day, Christy slowly walks inside the museum to see Tritocus, wearing a casual clothes and sitting in a mechanical wheelchair, giving a tour to some visitors.
"Now, this..." Tritocus said, pointing to a portrait of the battle between the Orasanian Warriors and the unlimited Titians. "... is the battle of the Titans. Although, the Orasanian Warriors were outnumbered by the Titans, the Orasanian Warriors became victorious."
Tritocus and Christy exchange nods at each other as he proceeds with the tour.
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย Shortly after....
Christy is on a bench and Tritocus is sitting in front of her in his mechanical wheelchair.
"A mechanical wheelchair?" Christy said.
"It's a cover." Tritocus said. "So, how have you been? With your grounded?"
"I'm good. How's your wife, Aediphae?" Christy asked him.
"She's fine. My wife and I have been archery training." Tritocus said. "You know, both your father and mother, and uncle and aunt, has been in many battle fights themselves."
"I know. Aunt Ismene told me herself." Christy said. "So, you're a tour guide."
"I am. Needed something else to do." Tritocus said to her.
Tritocus and Christy exchange chuckles with each other.
"How about something to eat?" Christy asked Tritocus.
"Sure, of course." Tritocus said.

CAFร
That afternoon, Tritocus and Christy are sitting at a table. She has a paper food tray of French fries and cookies and cream milkshake. And he has a mug of sweet tea.
"Luna and Trinity loves to dip their French fries into their milkshakes. It's really good snack." Christy said, gently dipping a French fry into milkshake and eats it.
"How are Luna and Trinity?" Tritocus asked, taking a sip of his mug of sweet tea.
"They're fine." Christy replied with a small smile. "They're amazing young girls."
"Young warriors Luna and Trinity are." Tritocus said.
"Yeah, they are." Christy said.
Tritocus and Christy exchange chuckles with each other.

CRESCENT MANOR
Later on that afternoon, Callahan and Keelin are with Christy sitting at the picnic table with their mug of caffรจ latte.
"So, how's the wedding planning going along?" Christy asked her best friends, taking a sip of her caffรจ latte.
"It's pretty good. It's gonna be at St. Anne's Church." Callahan said.
"A small wedding it is." Christy said.
Callahan, Christy and Keelin exchange chuckles with each other.
"The three of could have dinner together at St. James Infirmary. What do you guys say?" Christy asked Callahan and Keelin.
"Sure." Keelin said.
"Amazing." Christy said with a small smile.
Callahan, Keelin and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

ST. JAMES INFIRMARY
That evening, a small band is playing on the stage. A waitress brings over a platter with plates of food and drinks to Callahan's, Keelin's and Christy's table.
"Here you go." The female waitress said, gently setting down the plates of food on the table. "Enjoy your food."
"We will, and thank you." Callahan thanked the waitress.
The female waitress nodded with a small smile and walks away with her platter.
"This shrimp scampi is good." Christy said, eating a small forkful her food.
"Yeah, it is. It really is." Callahan said.
Callahan, Keelin and Christy exchange chuckles with each other as they eat their plate of food.
โ๏ธโ๏ธ
Minutes after, Callahan, Keelin and Christy has finished their plates of food and half drank their drinks of red wine.
"So, Callahan and I were examining a person's toe, it was purple. I gently touched his toe. It fell off. Callahan vomited in the trash can." Keelin said while chuckling.
Callahan, Keelin and Christy exchange playfully chuckles with each other.
"I tried to sow it back on, but it didn't quite work." Callahan said.
Christy chuckles. "Oh my gosh."
"Callahan is a silly guy." Keelin said.
"Yeah, I totally am." Callahan said.
Christy small smiles to herself and suddenly, she senses dark magic.
"Callahan? Keelin?" Christy said.
"Christy? What's wrong?" Callahan asked, concerned.
"He's here." Christy said.
"He who?" Keelin asked, a bit confused.
Christy makes her eyes glow blue and uses her magic to gently pins both Callahan and Keelin against the wall.
A hoodie cloaked Emperor zombie Junius slowly walks inside the jazz club safe house.
"Junius?" Christy said with her eyes still glow blue.
Emperor Junius walks up to Christy and grabs her right arm, siphoning Christy's life-force. She grunts and yelps out in slight pain as she falls on the floor.
Suddenly, Callahan and Keelin slings Emperor Junius away from Christy.
Callahan and Keelin crouches down beside Christy.
"Christy? Are you okay?" Keelin asked.
"Yeah, I think so." Christy said, and looks at her right arm, which has a red scab.
"More." Emperor Junius said in a weaken voice, slowly gets back up to his feet. "I need more."
"More of what?" Callahan said.
"Let's get the hell out of here." Keelin said.
Callahan and Keelin both helps Christy to her feet and walks away.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND
Later on that evening, Christy is sitting on the sofa with Callahan and Keelin.
"What the bloody hell happened?" Klaus asked, worriedly.
"Some zombie guy named Junius tried to siphon Christy." Callahan told Klaus.
"Siphon?" Elijah asked.
"Yeah, when Emperor Junius grabbed me, I felt my energy and strength being sucked out." Christy told Elijah.
"Why would Emperor Junius come after you?" Keelin asked.
"I don't know, but I sensed his magical powers." Christy replied.
"He said he wanted more." Callahan mentioned. "What did Junius mean by that?"
"Junius has been asleep in his sarcophagus for a long while. He's a thousand year ancient Emperor. He needs energy and strength." Christy said.
"So, the first person that he touches, could die." Keelin said.
Klaus and Christy exchange worried looks at each other.
"Emperor Junius is coming after me to finish what he started." Christy said.
โ๏ธโ๏ธ
After checking on both Luna and Trinity, who are both asleep in their bedrooms, Christy slowly walks inside Klaus's and hers bedroom and into the bathroom.
Christy looks at her right arm, which has two red scabs.
"How much are you hurt?" Klaus asked.
Christy looks at her husband, Klaus, through the mirror. "Klaus? I'm fine."
"No, you're not." Klaus said, and gently pulls off her jacket, revealing her shoulder and collarbone, revealing red scabs. "I'm gonna kill him."
"If he touches you, Junius is gonna siphon your life-force." Christy told her husband, gently pulls her jacket back over her shoulder and collarbone.
"I'm immortal, Love. Nothing cannot hurt me." Klaus said.
"Cocky much?" Christy said and looks at him through the mirror and walks away.
"I know what you're trying to do." Klaus said, slowly walks after her.
Christy turns around to look at him. "You know you look cute when you have a serious look on your face."
"Chris." Klaus said, still worried about her.
Christy gently cups his face with her hands and gently leans her forehead on his forehead. He gently wraps his arms around her waist, holding her close to him.
"I love you." Christy said to him.
"I love you too." Klaus said to her.
