MIKAELSON COMPOUND

The next morning, Christy has her backpack and notices a canvas painting of herself wearing her navy blue cape gown outfit, the one she wore at the horse polo game yesterday morning.

{Christy's Outfit}

Christy then, glances at Klaus, who just slowly walked inside.

"You sure do paint quick, don't you?" Christy asked with a small smile.

"Sure, I do, but I take my time as I carefully paints it." Klaus said.

"You really have many canvas paintings of me." Christy said.

"I love to paint you." Klaus said. "Where are you off to?"

"Just out and about." Christy told him, wearing her backpack on her shoulder. "I can't stay in this compound. I want to go out and snack on pastries or drink."

"Well, our daughters are at the Camp Orasani, keeping themselves occupied." Klaus said.

"Alrighty then. I'll see you back home." Christy said.

Christy pecks a kiss on his cheek and walks away. Klaus small smiles to himself, feeling happy.

ROUSSEAU'S

Christy sits at the bar counter with her bottle of hard cider, taking sips of it. She takes out her phone and dials Mathias's phone number.

"Hi, Christy." Mathias greeted her on the phone. "What's up?"

"Do you or Freya have a sage stick?" Christy asked.

"Sure. They're in our room, in a bowl, atop of a drawer." Mathias told her.

"Okay, thanks, Mathias." Christy thanked her best friend.

"You're welcome." Mathias said.

Christy hangs up and takes another sip of her hard cider.

JACKSON SQUARE MARKET

Later that day, Christy is slowly wandering around at the vendors. She and Colette exchange small smiles at each other.

"Hi, Colette." Christy greeted her with a small smile.

"Hi, Christy." Colette greeted her with a small polite smile. "Do you need anything?"

"Um, yes, do you have any Solomon seal and snapdragon?" Christy asked.

"Solomon seal and snapdragon?" Colette said, looking through her chest of flowers. "I do have those."

Colette then, gently hands Christy a small pouch bag of the flowers, Solomon seal and snapdragon.

"Thanks, Colette." Christy thanked her with a small smile.

Colette nodded at Christy with a small smile and Christy walks away.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

Upstairs in the study, Christy is sitting behind the desk with a few sage sticks. With a piece of both flowers of the Solomon seal and snapdragon, she puts both in a mortar pestle.

Rebekah slowly walks inside the study and looks at Christy. "Hello, Christy."

"Hi, Bekah." Christy greeted with a glance.

"What are you up to?" Rebekah asked.

"Experimenting." Christy told her. "A buddy of mine, Mary Dumas, she showed me a thing or two about a magical influence or interference thing that she did by using Solomon seal and snapdragon."

"What does the Solomon seal and snapdragon do?" Rebekah asked.

"Mary said that once the Solomon seal and snapdragon are burned, the herbal flowers will smoke. If the smoke is white, it's good and clear, if the smoke is red, something evil. And if the smoke is black, it's a hex."

"Okay." Rebekah said.

Christy lights a candle with a match, and ignites the herbs flowers in the mortar pestle.

The herbal flowers smokes white, meaning everything is good and clear.

"That's awesome, I think." Rebekah said.

"I know." Christy said.

Rebekah and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI / CITY STREET

That afternoon, Klaus, Christy, Elijah, Ana, Rebekah, Luna and Trinity are visiting the vendors market.

Ana gently soothes the silk fabric with her fingertips with a small smile.

Luna and Trinity are eating small forkfuls of their sesame noodles from their takeout box.

And Klaus checks out the bead necklaces, which he checks out.

"Which one do you like?" Christy asked.

"I don't know, I'm just checking them out, that's all." Klaus replied.

Christy looks at a dark blue-green bead necklace. She gently takes it in her fingers and shows it to him.

"This one matches your eyes." Christy said, referring to the dark blue-green bead necklace.

Klaus gently takes the dark blue-green bead necklace in his fingers. "I appreciate the offer, Chris, but I can't take this."

"Niklaus?" Elijah said.

"It's a gift." Christy said.

Klaus looks at both Elijah and Christy and gently takes the dark blue-green bead necklace.

And Christy pays for it with some coins. She gently put the dark blue-green bead necklace in Klaus's inside jacket pocket.

Klaus is touched by his wife's, Christy's, gift, as they exchange small smiles at each other.

CAFÉ

Minutes after, Klaus, Christy, Elijah, Ana, Rebekah, Luna and Trinity are sitting at a café table with their food.

Some little boys and girls children plays catch ball with each other, giggling with each other.

However, the ball wanders off and a little boy goes after it, not knowing a few camels are scurrying off in his direction.

Christy looks at the scurrying camels and then, at the little boy scurrying after the ball.

Christy gets up and runs towards the little boy, picking him up by his waist, and pulling him away from the camels just as the little boy holds the ball as the camels scurries off.

Some people becomes relieved as Christy's heroic draws attention.

Christy looks at the little boy as she gently puts him down on his feet and she crouches down to him.

"Are you alright?" Christy asked, concerned.

The little boy nodded gently holds the ball in his arms. "I'm okay, thank you, Mrs. Christiana."

"Always look both ways before you walk across the road, okay?" Christy told him.

"Yes, ma'am." The little boy said, nodded in understanding.

Klaus and the others walks over to her.

"Mom? Is he okay?" Luna asked.

"He's gonna be okay." Christy reassured her oldest daughter as she gets back up to her feet.

And then, Tovar and his wife, Lynne, scurries up to Christy.

"Iason?" Tovar said to his son.

Iason looks up at his parents, Tovar and Lynne. "Mommy? Dad?"

Tovar embraces his son in a hug. And looks at Christiana with a nod and a small smile. "Christiana."

"Tovar." Christy said with a nod with a small smile.

Tovar and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

"Thank you for rescuing our son, Christiana." said a thankful Lynne with a small smile.

"You're welcome, Lynne." Christy said.

"It was an honor to had fought alongside you in battles, Christiana." said Tovar.

"You too, Tovar." Christy said.

And then, Tovar, Lynne and Iason slowly walks away.

HAGARTH'S TAVERN

That evening, after Elijah, Rebekah and Ana had left, Klaus, Christy, Luna and Trinity are sitting at a table with their plates of food and mugs.

Klaus and Christy has mugs of wine and Luna and Trinity has mugs of root beer.

"You know Tovar, Mom?" Trinity asked.

"I do, we fought together in the battles." Christy replied.

"Oh, really?" Klaus said.

"Yeah. He has physical strength and he's strong." Christy said. "He loves his sledgehammer. He's a good Orasanian Warrior."

"There are a lot of Orasanian Warriors here, both men and women." Luna said.

"Yeah, it is. And I've fought alongside them in battles." Christy said.

"Are the battles difficult?" Luna asked.

"Yeah, they are." Christy replied. "My Mom, your grandmother, told me that every battle and mission is a risk of the possibility of coming back home. There are thousands of Orasanian Warriors here that will defend their home island from any enemy."

"And yet, every warrior here has someone to return home to." Klaus said.

Klaus and Christy exchange soft looks at each other.

"Yeah, they do." Christy said.

Klaus, Christy, Luna and Trinity exchange small smiles at each other.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

Later that night, at a balcony railing, Christy has her arms folded, looking at the buildings.

Rebekah slowly walks up next to her and gently leans on the balcony railing.

"Christy?" Rebekah said.

"Hey, Rebekah." Christy greeted her sister-in-law.

"I want Nik to choose you." Rebekah said.

Christy looks at Rebekah. "Rebekah?"

"Nik loves you too much, Christy. You make him feel alive. I'm happy that my brother has filled his heart with love and happiness." Rebekah said.

Rebekah and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.
