Early morning around 5:30 AM...

In Klaus's and Christy's bedroom, Klaus and Christy are asleep. He's laying beside her, gently spooning her and she's laying in front of him. He's wearing a tank top and lounge pants.

As Klaus and Christy sleeps, a nightmare becomes to the Original Hybrid.

Klaus's Nightmare

Klaus and Mikael engages in a fight in a top level of an open spaced ruined bell tower. And Christy is in the middle of it.

"I will destroy everything you love?!" Mikael exclaimed.

"Not if I can stop you?!" Klaus exclaimed back at Mikael.

With Klaus and Mikael fighting each other, Christy looks up at her husband.

"Klaus?" Christy said.

And suddenly, the vine that Christy holds onto into, breaks, causing her to fall through the air of an ruined bell tower.

Reality

Klaus wakes up and slowly sits up sideways, looking at his sleeping wife, Christy. He gently lays back down and glances at her medallion tattoo on her right-side back shoulder.

Christy wakes up and turns over to look at Klaus. "Klaus? What is it? What's wrong?"

"Nothing, Love. I'm fine." Klaus reassured her.

But Christy isn't quite convinced but doesn't pry. "Okay."

"I'm fine." Klaus said, and gently strokes her blonde hair with his fingers. "Sorry I woke you up."

"It's okay." Christy said, and goes back to sleep.

Klaus looks at Christy and goes back to himself, convinced himself his nightmare is just a nightmare.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

Later on that day, Luna, Trinity and Nikole are playing a board game at the table. Klaus is sitting on the sofa, reading Christy's book, "Beautiful Passion".

"Uncle Klaus? Would you like to play the board game?" Nikole asked her Uncle.

"No thank you, sweetheart, but I appreciate the offer." Klaus replied, politely.

"Okay." Nikole said.

Klaus gently flips a page in his book and looks at Christy. She gently walks down the stairs and into the courtyard.

"Morning, you guys." Christy greeted.

"Morning, Mom." Luna and Trinity greeted their mother in unison.

"Morning cousin Christy." Nikole greeted.

"Morning, Chris." Klaus said, with a glance. "Cute socks by the way."

Christy chuckled, softly and walks inside the kitchen. "Thanks, Honey."

Klaus puts a bookmark on the page he's reading and gently sets it down on the arm of the sofa chair as he gets up and walks inside the kitchen.

Klaus and Christy exchange glances at each other as she reads her two letters.

"Your best friends responded to your letters?" Klaus asked.

"Yep." Christy told him. "I wrote two short letters to both Kahn and Taja, and to Queen Tasoula."

Christy opens the first envelope and gently pulls out a folded paper. She unfolds it and reads it.

Dearest Christiana,

It is good to hear from you again. It's been a while since you visited the desert city of Alluvion. Duncan and Seyrah are fine as well. They are both training some new Alluvionian desert warriors. Taja says "Hello" by the way. Anyhoo, it is good to get a letter from you. Hope you are doing well. Hope you visit again.

Sincerely,
Kahn

As Christy read Kahn's letter, Klaus has prepared her a bowl of cereal; granola oats with blueberries.

Christy glances at the bowl of cereal and looks at Klaus. "Aww, you made me cereal. How sweet of you."

Klaus chuckled to himself. "Don't make it a habit, Love."

"Too late." Christy said with a playfully smile.

Klaus looks at Christy with a humorous grin. Christy takes a small spoonful of her cereal as she reads the second letter from Queen Tasoula.

Dearest Christiana,

It's lovely to receive a letter from you. It's wonderful to hear from you. Hope you're doing well. I am doing well myself. Hope you visit whenever you can.

Sincerely,
Queen Tasoula

Christy puts her letters back inside their envelopes and looks at Klaus. "Have you spoken to Kol and Rebekah?"

"We do keep in contact, but Kol and Rebekah are always doing their own business." Klaus replied.

"Okay." Christy said, taking another spoonful of her cereal. "I'm gonna take a stroll in the French Quarter."

"Alright." Klaus said. "And I'll see if Elijah needs my assistance with anything."

"Okay." Christy said.

Klaus walks away and Christy continues eating her bowl of cereal.

FRENCH QUARTER

That afternoon, out and about in the French Quarter, Christy is taking a stroll, while talking on the phone with Ana.

{Christy's Outfit}

"Hey, Ana. I'm gonna come by to check on you." Christy said.

"Alright, I'll be here." Ana said on the phone.

And suddenly, there's an eclipse in the daylight sky.

"Maybe, Ana. I'll come by later on. There's an eclipse." Christy told her.

"An eclipse?" Ana said, a bit confused.

"I'll call you later." Christy said, and hangs up her phone, and puts it back in her leather jacket pocket.

Christy senses Junius somewhere in the French Quarter. Pinpointing to his location, she teleports herself away in golden dust.

Atop of a rooftop building...

Christy looks at Emperor Junius, who is standing on the edge of the rooftop.

"Junius?" Christy said to the ancient Emperor.

Emperor Junius slowly turns around to look at Christy. "Hello, Christy. We encounter each other again once more."

Christy looks at Emperor Junius. And his eyes turns into red dragon eyes.

"Junius? You don't have to do this. You can fight his curse." Christy said, trying to reason with him.

"I'm trying, but this curse is too powerful, too strong. And what better way to embrace it rather to fight any longer?" Junius told her.

"Junius? You've gotten your life back. Your wife, your kingdom. Don't throw it all away." Christy said.

Emperor Junius gives Christy a sympathetic look on his face. "I am sorry."

Emperor Junius transforms into a Red Dragon and flies upwards.

"Junius?" Christy said.

But Emperor Junius, in his Red Dragon form, flies upwards into the sky.

"Oh, shit." Christy said, worriedly.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

That evening, in the ballroom, Christy has made a triangle sigil with salt. Elijah slowly walks inside.

"Christiana?" Elijah said.

"Hey, Elijah." Christy greeted her brother-in-law. And summons Persephone. "Persephone. I summon you."

A gust of flame appears in the middle of the triangle sigil. Persephone is there.

"Hi, Christiana. Why have you summoned me?" Persephone asked.

"I assume that you're the person that awakened Junius." Christy said.

"I did." Persephone told her.

"Why did you?" Elijah asked. "To cause chaos and destruction?"

"In case you've forgotten, I'm the Elder Goddess of the Underworld, so, I could care less." Persephone told him with a sassy nonchalant attitude.

Christy becomes annoyed and walks up to Persephone, looking at the Elder Goddess of the Underworld boldly in her eyes.

"You're gonna be the Elder Goddess of nothing if you release Emperor Junius from his curse." Christy told Persephone.

"Junius's wife, Sora, summoned me and asked me to release her husband from the dragon curse. I can't release the curse on Junius. He's burdened with it." Christy told Persephone.

"So, you're saying that Emperor Junius is forever with his dragon curse?" Elijah asked Persephone.

"Yes. He is." Persephone told Elijah.

"You're not as malicious and twisted as your husband, Marcalos, aren't you, Persephone?" Christy asked.

Persephone looks at Christy. "Maybe, I am. Maybe I'm not."

Persephone and Christy exchange tense looks at each other. And Persephone disappears into flame.

Elijah and Christy exchange concerned looks at each other.

ANA'S APARTMENT

Later on that evening, in the living room, Ana and Christy are sitting on the sofa, facing each other. She's taking a sip of her bottle of beer. And Christy taking sips of her bottle of cider.

"That was some eclipse." Ana said.

"Yeah, I know." Christy said.

"So, Emperor Junius is dragon cursed and when there's an eclipse in the sky, he transforms into a Red Dragon?" Ana said, taking a sip of her bottle of beer.

"Yeah, he's burdened with the dragon curse." Christy said, finishes drinking her bottle of cider. "Thanks for the cider, I'll see you around, Ana."

"You too." Christy said, getting up and walks away.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

That night, in Klaus's and Christy's bedroom, Klaus is painting on his canvas with his paintbrush. But the nightmare about Christy comes to mind.

Glimpses of Christy falling through the air in the ruined bell tower.

Brushing it off, Klaus resumes painting on his canvas. And Christy slowly walks inside with takeout paper bag.

"Luna and Trinity are in their rooms." Christy said to Klaus, and sits in the armchair. "A cream puff?"

"I'm fine, but thanks." Klaus said to her.

Christy eats a cream puff and senses something off with him. "Klaus? What's wrong?"

Klaus sighs to himself and pauses his painting. "I had a nightmare. About you."

"What was your nightmare about?" Christy asked him.

"Mikael and I were fighting each other, and you were caught in the midst of it. You start to fall and that's it." Klaus told his wife about his nightmare.

Christy becomes worried. "Why didn't you tell me?"

"I didn't want to worry you." Klaus told her. "Maybe, it was just a nightmare."

"Yeah, it was." Christy said, and glances at Klaus's canvas painting of the sun and moon. "Nice sun and moon painting."

Klaus chuckled, softly, to himself. "Thanks."

Christy gently sets down her takeout paper bag on the nightstand and gets up and walks over to Klaus.

"Klaus?" Christy said, gently caress his cheek with her hand. "Everything's okay."

Klaus and Christy exchange reassuring small smiles at each other. She one-arm hugs him and he gently hugs her back.
