HANGAR

The next day, Christy is working on her classic '74 orange Honda Civic hatchback car.

{Christy Outfit}

With a toolbox she gotten from the tool shed, Christy works under the car hood.

Christy's wrist comm buzzes in her pants pocket. She takes it out and looks at it.

Odessa

She walks over to the stool chair and presses the 'Green' button. Odessa's face shows up on the wrist comm screen.

"Hey, Ode." Christy greeted the Elder Goddess of Fortune Luck.

"Hey back at you, Christiana. Can you hologram me?" Odessa said.

"Sure." Christy said and presses the button.

Odessa appears as a hologram, sitting next to Christy in a stool chair.

"Is everything okay?" Christy asked.

"Everything is fine here at my home island vineyard. I have a small task to ask of you." Odessa said.

"Okay, what is it?" Christy asked.

"How do you feel about being my gamer-girl?" Odessa asked.

"Gamer-girl?" Christy asked, a bit confused.

"I'm hosting a game this afternoon called Spin-The-Wheel for my speakeasy casino guests. Each guest gets five spins upon getting an answer correct. All you have to do is just spin the wheel. You will get paid, of course." Said Odessa.

"That sounds like fun." Christy said.

"So, what do you think, Christiana? Are you able to do so?" Odessa asked.

"Yeah, sure. I'll be there." Christy said.

"Good. I'll send one of my bodyguards to lend you an outfit. You're gonna look absolutely fab in it." Odessa said.

Christy chuckled softly to herself. "Okay."

"And also, do you still have your VIP pass card?" Odessa asked.

"I used it to pay for the cocktail drinks my husband and I had when we were there at your cocktail party." Christy said.

"Alright, I'll renew it." Odessa said.

"Okay. And by the way, Ode, I know I've already thanked you for helping me, so, thank you for helping me when I was a wanted fugitive." Christy thanked her with a small smile.

Odessa small smiles at Christy. "You're welcome again, Christiana. Like I told you, you're my girl and we've known each other since your teenhood, your young adulthood and up until now."

"Alright, love you, Ode. And I'll see you at their game night." Christy said.

"Alright." Odessa said.

Christy hangs up her wrist comm and Odessa's hologram disappears.

Christy gets up, putting her wrist comm in her pants pocket. She walks back over to her car and resumes repairing it.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

Later that day, Christy walks away and looks around at the decorated courtyard. She looks around at the caterers preparing for a formal.

Christy looks up at her husband, Klaus, who's at the second floor balcony railing.

"What's with the formal decorations?" Christy asked.

"Elijah and I thought it would be a good idea to have a party." Klaus said as gently walks down the stairs and into the courtyard. "We've invited some people from the supernatural community to come along as well."

"Okay, good luck with your party." Christy said.

"Why does it sound like you won't be able to attend?" Klaus asked.

"Odessa contacted me on my wrist comm and asked me to help her with a game night she's hosting this afternoon." Christy said. "When does the party start?"

"This evening." Klaus replied.

"Okay, then, I'll be here after Odessa's game night." Christy said.

A portal opens, and Odessa's bodyguard slowly walks through.

"Hello, Christiana." The bodyguard greeted her with a garment bag. "Milady Odessa sends her regards."

Christy gently takes the garment bag from the bodyguard. "Thanks."

The bodyguard bows and walks back inside the portal and it closes behind him.

"What's in the garment bag?" Klaus asked, gently folding his arms.

"My outfit for Odessa's game night. She asked me to be her gamer-girl." Christy said.

"That sounds interesting." Klaus said.

Klaus and Christy exchange chuckles with each other.

⚜️⚜️

That late afternoon, the party guests, vampires, werewolves and witches, had arrived at the Mikaelson Compound for Klaus's and Elijah's party.

Even, Eric and Nora Northman themselves.

They're all formally dressed-up and mingling with each other. The caterers with their hors d'oeuvres, champagne and appetizers.

In the upstairs bedroom of Klaus's and Christy's, Christy is admiring her outfit.

Klaus slowly walks inside the bedroom, dressed up in a dark tieless suit.

"The party has begun." Klaus said.

"I know." Christy said. "Do you think it was a good idea, you know, with the vampires, werewolves and witches in one place?" She added with a concerned look.

"That is why I invited Marcel, Vincent and Ivy, and Callahan and Keelin, to ease the tension between the three." Klaus said and slowly walks up to her.

"Yeah, they're buddies of mine, so, maybe, they can help each other." Christy said. "I have to get changed and get going." Christy said.

"Luna and Trinity are at a sleepover with Max, Gia and Marion." Klaus said.

"Alright." Christy said.

Klaus and Christy shares a kiss and she walks away.

⚜️⚜️

Minutes after, Christy has changed into her outfit and is admiring herself in the wall mirror.

{Christy Outfit}

She gently fidgets with her outfit, looking at herself in the wall mirror.

She looks at Klaus, who slowly walked inside and gently leans sideways in the door frame.

"You're just gonna stand there and admire?" Christy asked.

"I'm just taking a mental picture in my mind, so, I can paint it later and add it to my personal collection." Klaus said.

Christy small smiles and looks at herself in the wall mirror.

Klaus slowly walks up to her and looks at her through the wall mirror.

"You look amazing." Klaus complimented with a small smile.

"I'm gonna try to be back before the party ends." Christy said.

"Alright." Klaus said.

Christy playfully tips her hat with a playful small smile, making Klaus and herself chuckles.

⚜️⚜️

- Third POV -

That evening, everyone is enjoying the party, mingling with each other with food and champagne. Musicians plays their instruments.

Marcel and Josh has joined Vincent and Ivy, along with Callahan and Keelin, keeping an eye on things to make sure no conflict occurs.

Klaus is at the second floor balcony railing with his champagne, looking around at everyone.

"Klaus." Eric said, dressed up in a suit.

Klaus looks at Eric. "Eric. I'm surprised that you and your beloved wife, Nora, came to the party."

"We did." Eric said and slowly walks up to the Original Hybrid. "What is that you want, Klaus?"

"I don't know why you and Nora and your army of True blood vampires have come to New Orleans, but we will get to the bottom of it." Klaus said.

"You spoke of my wife, how is your wife, Christy?" Eric mentioned, taking a sip of his champagne.

Which causes Klaus to slightly tense a little. "My wife is fine."

"Enjoy the rest of the party." Eric said and walks away, taking another sip of his champagne.

ODESSA'S VINEYARD -- ODESSA'S PALACE SPEAKEASY CASINO

In the dimly-lit cabaret speakeasy casino, The Elder Goddess of Fortune Luck, Odessa, is on the stage, hosting her game night, Spin-The-Wheel.

Christy stands by the wheel, gently spinning the wheel.

Every time, a guest gets an answer correct, Christy gently spins the wheel five times.

And the guest receives an award.

Odessa is on her last guest and asked her a trivia question from her trivia game card.

"What do you call a group of butterflies?" Odessa asked her last female guest

"A group of butterflies? The woman guest said to herself, pondering and then, gives her answer. "A kaleidoscope."

"That is correct." Odessa said with a smile.

And Christy gently spins the wheel again and everyone applauds.

The arrow on the wheel lands on 323 points.

"Congratulations." Odessa congratulated the woman guest. "You will receive your reward."

A bodyguard hands the woman guest a gift bag and walks away.

"Thank you all for playing game night. Drive safely on your way back home." said Odessa.

Everyone gets up from their tables with their gift bags and walks away.

Odessa looks at Christy and gives her a thumbs up with a small smile. Christy does the same.

⚜️⚜️

ODESSA'S OFFICE

After awhile, in her office, Odessa sits in her throne. Christy sits in a sofa chair in front of Odessa's desk.

"Here's your renewed VIP card along with your payment of $200 euros." Odessa said, handing Christy her VIP card and a money envelope of $200 euros.

"Thanks." Christy said, gently taking both items. "Have you heard anything from Mr. Onyx?"

Odessa scoffs. "That jerk off? Nope. He knows not to mess with me anymore. Nor to ever steal from me ever again."

"I have to go." Christy said.

"Alright, and thanks again." Odessa said.

"Okay." Christy said. "By the way, about my outfit, I'll give it back."

"You can keep it. I might host another game night." Odessa said to Christy. And playfully smiles at her. "And maybe, you can please your hubby with that sexy leotard outfit."

Christy gives Odessa a look with a playful chuckle. "Oh my gosh, Ode."

"I'm just teasing." Odessa said.

Odessa and Christy exchange playful laughter with each other.

And Christy gets up and walks away.

⚜️⚜️

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

Later that night, the formal party calmed down.

{Christy Outfit}

After Christy arrived at the compound, she had changed clothes.

So, right now, Christy is at a decorated table, looking at everyone.

Eric slowly approaches her. "Hello, Christy."

"And you're Eric Northman." Christy said.

Eric offers his hand. "May I have a dance before I leave?"

"Sure." Christy said, gently taking his hand.

Eric slowly walks to the middle of the courtyard where some party guests are slow-dancing.

Eric gently wraps an arm around Christy's waist. She gently puts a hand on his shoulder and they gently holds each other's hands.

"You do know that Klaus is looking at us right now from the second floor balcony railing." Christy said.

"You think I'm afraid of Klaus? I'm not." Eric said. "I know you have Klaus's ear, given you're his beloved wife."

"What do you want, Eric?" Christy asked. "Because I warn you, I'm not the woman to mess with nor I'm not to underestimate."

"I understand." Eric said. He twirls her out and gently pulls out back close to him. "I understand not to underestimate a thousand year old immortal sorceress."

Christy squints her eyes at Eric.

"I appreciated the dance." Eric said and walks away from her.

Christy looks at Eric, having just grown suspicious of him.

Marcel slowly walks up next to Christy. "What was that about?"

"I don't know, Marcel. But I think that Klaus is right about Eric and Nora." Christy said.

Marcel and Christy exchange looks at each other.

And from the second floor balcony railing, Klaus has become even more suspicious.

⚜️⚜️

After the party ended, in the ballroom, Christy is sitting on the couch, gently fiddling with her silver fleurs de-lis necklace.

"You fiddle with your necklace whenever your mind is pondering." Klaus said, slowly walks inside the ballroom, still dressed up in his dark tieless suit.

"You were right about to be suspicious of Eric and Nora." Christy said.

"I saw you slow-dancing with Eric." Klaus said and slowly walks up to her. "Not to pry, but what did he discuss with you?"

"He's not afraid of you, he knows that I have your ear, but I warned him not to underestimate me. And he mentioned that I'm a thousand year old immortal sorceress." Christy said.

"Something's not right about this." Klaus said.

"I know." Christy said.

Suddenly, a premonition hits Christy, making her close her eyes and clutches her head with her hand.

- Christy's Premonition -

Eric and Nora are facing each other inside their industrial loft apartment.

"The Mikaelsons will at least, expect it." Nora said.

Eric and Nora has a moonstone in a box.

The premonition ends, and Christy becomes worried.

"Chris?" Klaus said, sits down next to her on the couch. "Chris?"

"You were right, Klaus. You were to be suspicious about Eric and Nora." Christy tells him.

"What did you see?" Klaus asked.

"Eric and Nora had a moonstone. Whatever they're planning, it involves a moonstone." Christy tells him.

Klaus and Christy exchange worried looks at each other.
