THE NEXT MORNING
AT ROUSSEAU'S Mira slowly walks inside the bar, which is empty but with a few dead bodies laying on the floor.

{Mira's Outfit}

"Cami?" Mira said.

Camille slowly walks out from the kitchen. "Your Mom, Elaine, was here. She was feeding on the customers last night when I came in."

"Where is she now?" Mira asked.

"I don't know." Camille replied. "She told me who she was and left.

"She's still in the French Quarter. Eliane's a blood addict." Mira told Camille.

"A blood addict?" Camille said.

"Elaine's addicted to blood." Mira said, and looks around at the dead bodies. "She fed on these customers for some fresh blood."

Camille and Mira exchange looks at each other.

Mira's phone buzzes in her dress pocket. She pulls out her phone and looks at it.

Klaus

Mira answers her phone. "Hey, babe. I'm a little bit busy right now." she decided to playfully tease him a bit, but with a serious look on her face.

Klaus chuckled on the phone. "Whatever it is your occupied with, I'm gonna need you this evening."

"What for?" Mira asked.

"Francesca Correa has a bag of moonstones and she's gonna bring them here to the compound." Klaus replied on the phone.

"And let me guess, the moonstones are for the crescent wolves, am I right?" Mira guessed.

"How do you know of that?" Klaus asked.

"Oh, please, Klaus, you'd be surprised on what I know." Mira replied to him on the phone. "But anyhoo, I'm on my way to the compound." and hangs up her phone.

"Oh my gosh." Jane-Anne said, shocked, she and Sophie just walked inside Rousseau's. "Mira? Cami?"

"I don't have any time to explain right now, but Janey, Sophie..." Mira started to say.

"We'll stay here with Cami and clean up." Jane-Anne said.

"There's a mop and bucket in the kitchen." Camille said.

"What about you?" Sophie asked Mira.

"I'll be at the compound. After you guys have cleaned up, you guys need to get to safety. There's gonna be a fight, I just know it." Mira said.

"Alright." Jane-Anne said. "Be careful, Mira."

"I'm always careful, Lovey." Mira said to her best friend, Jane-Anne, with a small smile, and wolf-sped away.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

That afternoon, Mira slowly walks into the compound and sees Klaus with Genevieve in the ballroom.

Mira uses her werewolf hearing to eavesdrop on the conversation as she slowly walks up to the minibar and gets herself a bourbon and takes a swig of it.

"Your mother's spell is as complicated as it is elegant." Genevieve spoke to Klaus. "She was clearly a very gifted witch."

"Is this the bit here?" Klaus asked.

"Hey, like I said, it's complicated." Genevieve said to him. "She bound protection magic to black kyanite stones. A werewolf with the stones is free from turning on a full moon."

"And what of the improvements?" Klaus asked.

"This spell will enhance speed, strength and agility." Genevieve replied. "I'm sure Hayley will be pleased."

"You'll making more of these. Let's call it a even hundred." Klaus said.

"And what of Mira?" Genevieve said. "You two have reconciled your relationship."

"I can handle my girlfriend." Klaus said to Genevieve. "You need no frightened of her." and speaks loudly so, Mira can hear him. "You can cease your eavesdropping, Mira, I know you're there."

Mira small smiles to herself, cheekily, and ceases her werewolf hearing. She walks into the wine cellar, opening the door, and gently leans sideways on the doorframe.

"I was just drinking my bourbon." Mira said. "And pardon my eavesdropping, Klaus, didn't mean to eavesdrop."

"Mira." Genevieve said.

"Genevieve." Mira said.

"I'll leave you two to talk." Genevieve said, getting up and slowly walks away, walking out of the cellar.

Klaus and Mira exchange mildly looks at each other. And she closes the door.

"Did you complete what were you occupied with at Rousseau's?" Klaus asked her, sitting at the table.

"Yeah." Mira said, slowly walks up to him. "Jane-Anne and Sophie are with Cami at Rousseau's. Elaine had herself a buffet at Rousseau's."

"And I assume that you will be handling Elaine?" Klaus asked, getting up to his feet and looks at her.

"I can handle Elaine." Mira said to her boyfriend. "Just like you can handle me." and takes a swig of her bourbon.

Klaus gently takes the small glass of bourbon from Mira and takes a swig of it. "You always were the tough woman."

"And always will be." Mira said, gently taking back her small glass of bourbon.

"When this ruckus with Marcel and the others are over, maybe, you can stay here with me at the compound? With Jane-Anne and Sophie as well?" Klaus offered Mira.

Mira looks surprised at Klaus's offer. "I'll think on it."

Klaus and Mira shares a passionate kiss.

And Mira caress Klaus's cheek with her hand. "Try not to bruise up your handsome sexy face, Lovey. Only I can bruise you." she said with the light from door glimmering on the side of her face with a glint of cheekiness in her eyes.

Klaus sly smirks, as she referred to their fight that they had at her loft apartment. "I'll try not to, Love."

Klaus and Mira exchange soft looks at each other. She then, uses her thumb to caress Klaus's lips.

Mira smirks, and walks away from him.

Klaus smirks to himself.

That evening, Klaus and Elijah is handling with Marcel and his vampire army at the Mikaelson Compound.

Out and about in the French Quarter, Mira is wandering around, and sense her estranged mother, Elaine Leuven.

Mira turns around and looks at her mother. "Seems as though, you were hungry for blood at Rousseau's."

"I was." Eliane replied. "I needed a little go-juice. But Mira, I'm asking you to give me a another chance to make amends with me. Your mother. But if you continue to resent me for leaving you and your father, the resentment will eat away within you. I'm your family, Miranda."

"I already have a family." Mira said, referring to Jane-Anne and Sophie. "And you're nothing to me, Elaine."

"So be it." Elaine said, making her eyes glow golden with small veins underneath her eyes.

Mira makes her eyes glow golden with small veins underneath her eyes. And the two women engages into a fight with exchanging punches to each other's faces.

Mira uses her magic to inflict an aneurysm spell on Elaine, making her clutch her head with her hands. And Mira stops her aneurysm spell.

Elaine looks at Mira. And Mira looks at Elaine.

"Leave New Orleans, there's nothing for you here, Elaine." Mira told her, making her eyes back to normal and wolf-sped away.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

Mira slowly walked inside the courtyard and sees some of Marcel's vampires laying around injured.

"Mira?" Jane-Anne said.

"Janey." Mira said. "What the hell happened?"

"Cami, Sophie and I were at her apartment, but I got worried. And so, we came here." Jane-Anne told Mira.

"Some of Marcel's vampires have been bitten, Mira." Sophie said.

"By Francesca Correa and her Guerra Wolves, I assume." Mira said.

"Yeah, how did you know?" Cami asked.

"Francesca Correa was pretending to be a human, but really, she's a werewolf, along with her brothers, who are also the Guerra werewolves. Genevieve made a side deal with Francesca for the moonlight rings." Mira told Jane-Anne, Sophie and Cami.

"Damn, you figured that out or have you known?" Jane-Anne asked.

"I've been keeping tabs." Mira said, looking around at some of Marcel's injured and bitten vampires. "Janey? Soph? Cami?"

"We'll stay here." Jane-Anne said.

"Where's Klaus?" Mira asked.

"I don't know." Sophie replied. "Jane-Anne, Cami, and I got here minutes after."

"Where's Hayley?" Mira asked.

"Right here." Hayley said, walking inside the courtyard. "I tried to stop Francesca Correa, but Genevieve knocked me out with her magic."

"Mira?" Davina said, walking inside an injured Josh.

"Josh? Davina?" Mira said, sitting them both down on the sofa.

"Mira?" Marcel said.

"Marcel?" Mira said.

"I'm fine." Marcel said.

"Where's Klaus?" Mira asked him.

"I don't know." Marcel replied. "After we fought, he bit me. And then, he jacked by some witch's spell, and so, I left."

Mira wolfs-sped away.

⚜️⚜️

Out and about in the French Quarter, Mira is wandering around, looking for her boyfriend, Klaus.

"Klaus?" Mira said. "Klaus?"

Mira looks at Rousseau's and walks inside the empty bar, opening the door.

She and Klaus exchange looks at each other.

"Klaus?" Mira said, walking up to him and crouched down in front of him, and looks at his face wounds. "Didn't I say to not get bruises on your handsome face?"

"You know me, I love a good fight." Klaus replied with blood smeared on his mouth from biting Marcel, sitting up on the floor. "Genevieve was here."

"I'll worry about her laters." Mira said, biting her wrist and offers her wrist to him.

Klaus bites her wrist, feeding on her blood, gaining some of his strength. And pulls away from Mira's wrist.

Both Klaus and Mira exchange looks at each other.

"Marcel kicked your ass, huh?" Mira said.  "It's not like you deserved it though."

Klaus looks at Mira, giving her a look. She gives him a look right back at him.

"So, what's the plan?" Mira asked Klaus.

"I don't know." Klaus replied.

"Klaus Mikaelson out of plans? Shocker." Mira said. "I have one; find Genevieve, Monique and Abigail. And also Elijah."

Mira looks at Genevieve, wolf-speeding to her. But Genevieve tries to use her magic at Mira, but Mira chokes her.

"You have really gotten on my fucking nerves, Genevieve." Mira said, making her eyes glow golden with small veins underneath her eyes. "I'm gonna enjoy this."

Mira bares her werewolf fangs and bites Genevieve on the side of her neck, feeding on her. Genevieve grunts in agony as Mira feeds on her.

Genevieve stops squirming upon Mira draining her of her blood. Mira pulls herself away from Genevieve with blood on her mouth.

Mira drops Genevieve on the ground, and composes herself.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

Mira slowly walks into the courtyard with blood stained on her turquoise dress.

"Mira?" Jane-Anne said, slowly walks up to her. "Are you okay? What happened?"

"Yeah, I'm fine." Mira replied.

"I'm pretty sure you got Genevieve." Jane-Anne said.

"Something like that." Mira said. "How's everyone else?"

"Marcel healed Josh with some of Klaus's blood. And Klaus himself, healed Marcel." Jane-Anne said.

"Monique's dead, Janey." Mira told her best friend, Jane. "I'm sorry."

"I know, but you were right. Monique had changed." Jane-Anne said. "But are you really sorry?"

"About your psychopathic daughter, Monique? Not really no." Mira said.

"Glad that everyone's alright." Elijah said, along with Klaus.

Klaus and Mira exchange looks at each other.

"Are you okay, Klaus?" Mira asked.

"I'm fine." Klaus replied.

Mira looks at Elijah. "Elijah?"

"I'm fine as well, Miranda." Elijah said.

Klaus, Elijah and Mira exchange small smiles at each other.

Mira glances at her blood stained turquoise dress. "Ugh. I need a short shower."

"Hope you like your new bedroom." Klaus said, slowly walked inside.

"I do, and thanks." Mira replied. "And just out of curiosity, you didn't wanna share a bed. We're boyfriend and girlfriend after all." she added with a hand on her hip.

"Knowing you very well, I didn't wanna be tempted." Klaus said, knowing how Mira is.

And Mira smirks, cheekily, knowing that Klaus's right about her flirty banter and sweet-talk to him.

"But thanks anyway, Klaus." Mira said to her boyfriend. "Now, that Marcel has relocated at Algiers, my bestie friends, Jackson and Hayley, are with the crescent wolves in the Bayou, and the enemies have been defeated, what are you and Elijah gonna be up to?"

"Don't know as of yet." Klaus said, slowly walked up to her. "But you're right about one thing, about us, we've reconciled what we had."

"Oh, gosh, just spill it out already." Mira said, knowing what Klaus is trying to say to her.

"I love you." Klaus said to her.

"I love you too." Mira said back to him, gently wrapping her arms around his neck.

And Klaus gently wraps his arms around her waist, holding her close to him.
They kiss each other, passionately.
