MIKAELSON COMPOUND
The next day, Christy is in the kitchen, at the kitchen countertop, making herself a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
(Christy's Outfit)
Christy hears a rumble of thunder in the courtyard. She takes a bite out of her sandwich as she slowly walks inside the courtyard and sees her mother, The Elder Goddess, Nadia, wearing her casual maxi dress attire.
"Hi, Christiana." Nadia greeted her daughter with a small polite smile.
"Madam Mother." Christy said to her mother and bows her head to her.

BOURBON STREET
Nadia and Christy are taking a stroll together. Christy eats on her peanut butter and jelly sandwich and Nadia nibbles on her pastry.
"How is Klaus?" Nadia asked about her son-in-law.
"He's fine. But I can tell that my Rou-Ga-Rou curse is bothering him." Christy replied.
"Does Luna and Trinity know?" Nadia asked.
"Klaus and I told them through their astral projections." Christy replied and finishes the rest of her peanut butter and jelly sandwich. "It's just that, I don't want Klaus to have so much weight on his shoulders, I mean, I know he can handle it."
"Klaus understands your worries for him. So do Ames and myself." said Nadia. "And maybe, Klaus doesn't want to burden you with his concerns."
"I know, Mom." Christy said.
Nadia and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.
"I will check on you whenever I can." Nadia said.
"Yes, Ma'am." Christy said.
And Nadia whooshes away in a rumble of thunder. And Christy continues her stroll.

LAFAYETTE CEMETERY
Christy is sitting on a stoop of a tomb. She closes her eyes to feel the warm breeze on her face and opens her eyes again.
"Christy?" Ivy asked.
Christy looks up at the witch, Ivy. "Hi, Ivy."
Ivy slowly walks up to Christy and sits down next to her on the stoop of the tomb. "I haven't seen you around much lately, are you alright?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. I'm just enjoying the fresh air." Christy replied.
Ivy and Christy exchange looks at each other.
"How are the witches here?" Christy asked.
"They're fine. Same old witch business as usual." Ivy told her.
"How are things with you and Vincent?" Christy asked Ivy.
"My friendship with Vincent Griffith is fine." Ivy replied.
"Friendship, huh?" Christy said with a playful tease smile. "I would've thought you and Vincent would've formed a relationship between the two of you."
Ivy chuckled softly to herself. And so does Christy.

HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI / THRONE ROOM
Later that day, the double doors opens; and Christy slowly walks inside with a treasure chest in her hands.
The Elder Gods and Goddess looks at her. And Christy bows at them.
"Milords? Miladies? I have brought you each one a gift." Christy said.
"What is your gift, Christiana?" The Elder Goddess, Ismene.
Christy slowly walks over to the table and gently sets down the treasure chest. She gently opens it and shows the Elder Gods and Goddess the golden apples inside the treasure chest.
The golden apples are engraved with the Orasani Crest "O" on the front.
The Elder Gods and Goddess became astonished by Christy's golden apples gift.
"I know it's not much, but it took me a little while. I hope you all like them." Christy said.
The Elder Gods and Goddess slowly walks up to Christy and they each take an engraved Orasani crest golden apple.
"These are beautiful, Christiana." The Elder God, Tithous, complimented with a small smile.
"Tithous is right, these golden apples are beautiful." The Elder God, Cyrus, said. "We will cherish them."
"Thanks." Christy thanked the Elder Gods and Goddess.

HALLWAY
After walking out of the throne room, Christy sees Talbot, gently leaning backwards against the wall.
"Christiana." Talbot said.
"I don't want to banter with you, Talbot." Christy said, walking away.
"Why did you resurrect my wife?" Talbot asked, standing in the middle of the hallway. "It's been nagging me in the back of my mind ever since?"
Christy stopped walking and turns around to look at Talbot. "I resurrected Aetna so, you wouldn't be alone. I know how much you missed her and you never moved on."
"No, it's something else." Talbot said, slowly walks up to her, closing the distance in between himself and her. "Or did you think by resurrecting Aetha would soothe our friendship rivalry?"
"No, I didn't. And like I said, I resurrected Aetna so, you wouldn't be alone." Christy told him. "I know you can be a mischievous jackass sometimes, but deep down within you, Tal, you're a good guy. What happened to you? We trained each other in the Elite Academy. I tried to be nice to you, but all you ever did was be mean to me. So, if you have anything nice to say to me? Don't bother starting a conversation with me."
And Christy walks away from him
Talbot sighs to himself. "You're right, Christiana."
Christy stopped walking and turns around to look at him again. "What?"
"You were right. I was mean to you because I wanted to be." Talbot said. "You were getting higher than me on the ranking score board. So, yeah, I was getting pissed off, but yeah, I'm a mischievous guy."
"When are you gonna grow up, Talbot?" Christy asked him.
"I'm already grown up, Christiana." Talbot said, playful teased her.
Christy rolls her eyes at Talbot and the two teenhood buddy pals exchange small smiles at each other.

LAFAYETTE CEMETERY
That late afternoon, Christy slowly walks up to Marcel, who's waiting for her.
"Marcel? I came. What's wrong?" Christy asked, concerned.
"There's something you should know." Marcel told her.
Marcel and Christy exchange looks at each other as they both slowly walks inside a tomb.
"Vincent had put an illusion spell on the bricks." Marcel said.
Christy glances at Marcel and makes her eyes glow blue. She waved her hand over the illusion brick spell, revealing Aurora, who's been dosed up with vervain, sitting upright against the brick wall.
Aurora and Christy exchange looks at each other.
"Why is Aurora here?" Christy asked.
"Asks Nik." Aurora told Christy. "He's been visiting me, trying to get information on how to remove the Rou-Ga-Rou curse from you."
Christy looks shocked, not knowing about this. She and Marcel exchange looks at each other.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND
That night, in the courtyard, Christy is sitting in the sofa chair and Klaus slowly walks inside.
"Christy?" Klaus said.
"When were you gonna tell me that you had Aurora at the Lafayette Cemetery?" Christy asked.
"She has information." Klaus said.
"That's not what I'm asking." Christy said, getting up to her feet. "How long have you had Aurora kept in a tomb at the Lafayette Cemetery?"
"After you were asleep in your bedchamber, I received a phone call from Marcel. He told me that he found Aurora." Klaus told Christy.
"Aurora should've flamed out by now, so, I'm assuming that Vincent put a spell on her to prevent her from flaming out into flames." Christy told him. "But the thing is, why didn't you tell me?"
"Because you already have something else on your shoulders." Klaus argued. "Like I told you, Aurora has information that I need."
"So, you've been dosing her with vervain and keeping her inside a tomb, hoping that she'll tell you something." Christy argued. "How low of a man are you?"
"Seriously, Christiana?" Klaus said, and slowly walks up to her. "That's nothing compared to your dark alter ego." He argued.
"But at least, I can atone for my mistakes, Niklaus." Christy argued back at him. "You are so selfish, so vindictive, and so cold-hearted, that you will stoop so low, to get what you want, but damn anyone else that tries to stop you or gets in your way. You're the infamous Klaus Mikaelson. The Hybrid killer with a thousand vengeful enemies. But if you want to continue questioning your ex-girlfriend, Aurora, go ahead. But I won't be here."
Christy walks away, walking away, and Klaus is confused as he slowly walks after at the stairs.
" 'You won't be here?' " What are you going?" Klaus asked.
"Away from you, Niklaus." Christy told her husband with her glow red eyes in anger. "I really thought that you had it in you to change. To better yourself. To be more of a man. But when it comes to Aurora de Martel, you get sucked back in and always fall right back in her clutches. Every time. When are you ever gonna grow up? You're not my husband, Niklaus. You're Aurora's bitch."
Klaus looks at Christy, shocked.
"I'm getting my stuff and I'm taking my ship." Christy told him and walks away from him, walking up the stairs.
Klaus just sits down on the stairs, dejected.
