Chapter Twenty-Three
ST. LOUIS CATHEDRAL
The next day, Christy is sitting at the table with a map, using salt to do a locator spell to locate Aurora.
{Christy's Outfit}
Mathias slowly walks inside. He and Christy exchange looks at each.
"Hey, Christy." Mathias greeted her with a small polite smile.
"Hey, Mathias." Christy greeted him back with a small polite smile. "Where's Freya?"
"Freya and Nikole are spending some mother daughter time with each other." Mathias said. "I told Nikole that the three of us will regroup with ice cream sundaes."
"Aww, so sweet." Christy said with a small smile.
"Yeah." Mathias said with a small smile. "Nikole has been spending a lot of time with Luna and Trinity at the Camp Orasani. It keeps them occupied with fun activities, lunch and snacks and everything."
Christy's phone buzzes in her jacket pocket. She pulls out her phone and looks at it.
Aurora
Christy answers her phone. "Aurora?"
"Hello, Christiana. I don't have much time. Meet me at St. James Infirmary. Come alone." Aurora said and hangs up the telephone.
"Mathias? I have to go. I'll see you around." Christy said, and hangs up her phone.
And as Christy walks away, she dials Klaus's phone.
"Chris?" Klaus greeted.
"I'm meeting Aurora at St. James." Christy told her husband on the phone.
"I'm on my way." Klaus said.

ST. JAMES INFIRMARY
Later on that day, Klaus and Christy walks inside and sees Aurora sitting at the table, eating a plate of food with a drinking glass of red wine.
"Hope you're enjoying your last meal, Aurora." Christy said.
"I am." Aurora said. "But I do not have much time."
"What is it that you want?" Klaus asked.
Aurora looks at Klaus and Christy. "Even though, I'm jealous and envious of your strong bond between the two of you, I have information that may have useful."
"Why should we believe anything you say?" Klaus asked.
"She's gonna flame out." Christy said, realizing. "Persephone's done using you and now, you're gonna flame out and go back to being deceased."
"It's gonna be fun seeing you flame out and die again." Klaus said with a mischievous grin.
"What's the information?" Christy asked.
"Persephone has it out for Nik. She has a mischievous twisted fondness of him."
Aurora told both Klaus and Christy.
Klaus and Christy exchange looks at each other and looks at Aurora.
"We already know of that." Klaus said.
Aurora starts to feel hot as steams from her fingers. "Persephone told me to tell you that Marcalos has resurrected two more people."
"Who?" Christy asked.
"Finn and Sage Mikaelson." Aurora told Klaus and Christy. "I have an Manila envelope atop of the piano. I have proof what I'm telling you is true."
And then, Aurora becomes engulfed in flames.
Klaus and Christy exchange looks at each other and she walks over to the piano and sees the Manila envelope atop of the piano.
"Klaus?" Christy said to her husband, gently taking the Manila envelope in her hand.
Klaus walks over to his wife just as Christy opens the Manila envelope and pulls out two pictures.
One picture of Finn Mikaelson.
Another picture of Sage Mikaelson.
And another picture of Klaus and Christy gently holding each other's hands, small smiles at each other.
Klaus and Christy exchange concerned looks at each other.
⚜️⚜️
Later on that afternoon, Klaus and Christy are sitting at a table, looking at the pictures.
"Finn and Sage." Christy said. "I think you told me about them."
"And you met Finn when we was possessing your best friend, Vincent Griffith." Klaus said.
"Finn has a vendetta against you, doesn't he?" Christy asked.
"Yeah, he does." Klaus said. "I daggered him and left him in a coffin for 900 years. And I can assume that Sage released him."
"Finn has a personal vendetta against you. And now, he and Sage can be anywhere in the French Quarter." Christy said. "What are you gonna do?"
"I don't know as of yet." Klaus said.
And Christy gives her husband her "wifey" look. "Klaus? I know how that mind of yours is. You're gonna go after Finn, aren't you?"
"I might." Klaus said.
"Klaus?" Christy said.
"Christy? If you give me that "Finn is my brother sentimental" talk, I will barf." Klaus said, humorously.
"I wasn't gonna say that, I was gonna say when you find Finn or Sage, just be careful, you don't know what they're capable of or what they have in mind." Christy warned him.
"I'm touched by your concern, Love. And I'm always careful." Klaus said.
Klaus and Christy exchange small reassuring smiles at each other.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND
That evening, in the courtyard, Luna, Trinity and Ana are snacking on a platter of cookies. Christy slowly walks inside.
"Hey, Mom." Trinity greeted her mother with a small smile. "Auntie Ana baked some cookies. Luna and I helped."
"Sounds nice." Christy said.
"Yeah, we saved 7 cookies for you in a plastic container." Luna said.
"Okay, thanks, sweethearts." Christy thanked her daughters.
Christy pecks a kiss on Luna's forehead and pecks a kiss on Trinity's forehead.
And then, Luna's and Trinity's pet Ferret slowly climbs up onto the table. Christy gently soothes its head with her hand and Ferret relaxes itself.

FRENCH QUARTER
That night, Christy is wandering around on the road.
Suddenly, Finn Mikaelson appears to her out of nowhere.
"Hello, Christy." Finn greeted.
Christy stopped walking and turns around to look at him. "Finn?"
"I assume that you and Niklaus knows of me and Sage?" Finn said.
"Yeah, we do." Christy said to him. "And I get it, you have a personal vendetta against my husband."
"Niklaus brought this on himself." Finn said to Christy. "I'll see you around, Christy."
Finn and Christy exchange mildly looks at each other and he vamp-sped away.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND
Later on that night, in the courtyard, Christy is sitting at the table with her iBook laptop, working on some hieroglyphs pages for her Hieroglyphs booklet.
Christy's phone buzzes a video chat. She looks at it.
Video Chat: Max
Christy answers her video chat. "Hi, Max."
"Hello, Christy." Max said on the video chat, sitting on the carpet floor and averts his phone screen at Baby Marion, who slowly crawling around in front of him. "Marion's crawling."
"Oh my goodness. Mar is crawling around." Christy said with a small smile.
"Yeah, she is." Max said with a chuckle and averts his phone screen back to himself. "She's been giggling and smiling too."
"Where's Gia?" Christy asked.
"She's asleep." Max replied. "And by the way, I'm taking Gia out for lunch at St. James tomorrow afternoon. You wanna babysit?"
"Yeah, of course. I love Little Marion. And also, Luna, Trinity and Nikole will be at the Camp Orasani. So, it'll be me and her." Christy said.
"Alright, then. I'll see you tomorrow afternoon. Goodnight, Christiana." Max said.
"Goodnight, you guys." Christy said.
"Goodnight, Christy." Max said, and hangs up his video chat.
⚜️⚜️
Afterwards, Klaus gently walks down the stairs and into the courtyard. He and Christy exchange looks at each other.
"I saw Finn." Christy told him.
"Where was he?" Klaus asked, sitting at the head of the table.
"I was wandering around in the French Quarter and he just came out of nowhere." Christy told her husband.
"And Sage?" Klaus said.
"I think Ana and I can handle Sage." Christy said.
Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.
