Family above all, Always and forever. – All the mikaelson siblings.
The rage
"Who should I kill." Jessica stated out to them and took them by surprise. She wasn't the type to worry over killing people, she was trained to do it but she hadn't ever actually killed someone. "I think I asked you a question, Who should I kill." Repeated Jessica as raven went up to Jessica.
"Anybody you want to, It just has to be a human and well it has to be out of your free will, you can't kill them thinking that you don't want to kill them, so basically choose someone you hate and chop their head off," Raven said to Jessica as she looked at her in the eyes, Raven was examining her, She wanted to know if Jessica knew what she was talking about.
"I don't have anyone I hate, I don't get out that often. What are my abilities? Why do you want me?" Jessica said to raven. Her head was getting filled with questions and worries.
"Let go off me. I don't want any of this." Jessica demanded.
" You really need to listen to us, you can't leave. We know you and we knew Mary, You need to trust us." Raven said to Jessica as Jessica started looking a bit pale.
"I'll fill her through with the details and let her explore her powers a bit," Said Kai as he went towards a cabinet and took a bottle of what looked like whiskey. Jessica was feeling really strange because of all of it.
"I Said let me go. I really don't want any of this. Do you need any gold or money or any information? Cause I have none. Just let me get our of here and let's not meet again. No one has to get hurt." Jessica answered as she looked at a glass bottle on a table in front of the couch.
" We can't. You need to understand what is happening right now. We are the good ones, You can trust us," Kai said as he approached Jessica.
Jessica gave a nod. She acted fine and then went towards the couch. They didn't think that she was going to make a move so they didn't do anything as she went towards the couch, But she proved them wrong.
Jessica took the glass bottle and made a run to go outside of the room, Hoping that she could get outside the room and close the door from behind.
She was wrong. She was fast but not fast enough cause Raven had caught her and she lunged forward at Jessica to pin her against the wall but Jessica didn't want to get caught. She threw the bottle at raven which unfortunately raven caught but while raven was catching the bottle, Jessica had made the run.
She saw the exit nearby, She went towards it in the fastest Speed she could run in. She managed to get it open and she ran out of the mansion.
The mansion was hidden by the forests that were surrounding it, Jessica didn't know which path to take but she made the decision to just run forward. She was about to run into the forests when suddenly fire surrounded the whole perimeter.
Walls of fire, Higher then Jessica could jump through and thicker then Jessica could run into and escape. She didn't know what sort of magic those people were using to do this, She wanted to get out of there. She tried to check if the fire was real by throwing a bunch of leaves into it, They burned and proved her theory.
They appeared. All four of them came outside, Looking suspicious. It looked like Sebastian was the one in control of the fire as he seemed to keep the fire in control by using his hands. She thought that he was the only one with the power's so she gave a fake surrender.
She waked to them with her hands up, Looking like she was genuinely sacred. She thought that if she could manage to distract Sebastian then she'd have a way to escape and right now she was okay with taking chances.
"Look, We'll explain it all. All we are asking you to do is to head inside and listen to us. The final decision is up to you," Caroline said to Jessica with a desperate expression.
"I am not going back inside. Whatever talking you want to do, Do it here." Jessica demanded to Caroline as she put her hands down.
"You are the earth element, We together are the elements of nature and you need our help," Caroline explained to Jessica.
"The elements of nature are supposed to be myths, Stories told by townspeople to their children when they ask about the queen. Don't fool me over here, What technology do you have?" Jessica questioned. She wouldn't believe them that easily, She wanted more.
"Then how do you explain our powers? Your powers. Jessica we've been observing you and you might just be the one we've been searching for. There's this curse and things that you need to know about yourself in other for you to help us," Caroline continued. She was trying her best to try to explain herself to Jessica but it looked like she had to go to the last resort.
"We know Mary, We know many things about that empire that you need to know, We know that Mary needs our help and we won't be able to provide it to her without your cooperation," Caroline added and Jessica looked like she was a bit interested in knowing more.
"How is she in danger. Why should I trust you? You basically kidnapped me." Jessica asked Caroline, Whilst still maintaining a safe distance.
"Eleanor. She saw Mary, She knows who you are and it's not going long before she knows about your powers. She's been trying to hunt us down together since Decades and she'll use Mary as bait unless we find her and make a plan." Caroline answered. Eleanor, The queen from 200 Years, The only person to ever have a stand against nature. Those were supposed to be myths but Jessica in theory then would be a myth as well.
"What's that supposed to mean? I need proof. For all I know you could be lying through your teeth," Jessica continued to ask them about it. She wasn't going to trust them without proof.
"We know something that Mary only said to you and us," Kai tried to convince her. She gave him a suspicious look, asking for what it was.
"The necklace you are wearing, it's the only thing you have of your mother. The car that you saw once and mary asked you to forget about? It's of Elliott. You have a birthmark on your back that looks like a Cresent moon," Kai answered honestly as he raised his hands up and walked towards jessica.
Only she and mary knew about the birthmark. Jessica had never shown it to anyone and mary wouldn't have said it to anyone she didn't trust. Jessica thought about the worst case scenario, how this could end up in her getting killed but what if they were who they told her? What if Mary was in danger and by not helping them she'd be betraying Mary.
"Mary gets rescued first. Before we do anything else I need to know that she's alright. Then I'll come with you, No questions asked." Jessica was convinced but she still didn't entirely trust them. But she couldn't afford to lose Mary, Mary was the only family that Jessica ever had and without Mary Jessica would have no one with her. Absolutely no one.
"Deal. We'll get you settled in over here, Let's go and talk about your and our powers and Caroline has your wardrobe ready in your room." Raven entered the conversation.
The sun was starting to set and everything started to look a bit different. There were cold winds blowing and the leaves looked like they were withering away. Jessica went inside the mansion with the rest of them, Hoping for some more context and a bit of food as she was staring to get hungry.
They went to the living room, Jessica sat on an armchair while Caroline and Kai sat on the couch. Raven was standing near a cabinet and Sebastian was against the door. She thought of asking them about her powers first but went with a different question.
"Am I supposed to be knowing about any backstories? Or should we just have our dinner and go to our rooms and decide on how to find Mary tomorrow?" Jessica asked them as her eyes looked around the room.
"We don't have time for huge backstories so let me fill you in about the important things. Okay, So Kai's family doesn't remember that he exists, Raven's dad is the literal devil from hell, Sebastian's family were non existent and I ran away." Caroline replied without hesitation. The group knew each other and looked like friends so it was clear that they had no problems with telling their backstories.
"And you of course showed no remorse in saying that," Sebastian finally spoke. He was still against the door, Just looking around the room, Thinking something.
"Aww, Did I hurt you? Did you get a boo boo? Did you want me to tell her that everyone was happy and we pooped rainbows? Sebastian she asked me a question and I answered. Now let's go and eat before raven gets drunk on whiskey and kills us all." Caroline replied with a smile as she stood up from the chair and went to the door. She walked to the dining room and Sebastian just shook his head to himself as everyone followed.
They went to the dining room. The room was huge. It was lit by candles and lamps that gave out a yellowish orange color to the room. There was a grand dining table with 12 seats. Jessica wondered why there were 12 seats but then just thought that there were 12 people living here.
The food was arranged on the table and Jessica walked to the table and took a seat. Sebastian sat next to her. Jessica was looking around the room, She noticed how there were no cameras or any type of scanners over the room. Eleanor couldn't find her over here.
There was steak and some salad and a frozen cheesecake for dessert. They finished eating and everyone except raven left as it was her turn to do the dishes but Kai said goodnight to Jessica and went back into the dining room to help raven with the dishes.
Jessica asked Caroline where her room was and Caroline took her to her room, she didn't want to sleep but had to. A few hours later it was morning. They had come to the decision of going to Jessica's home, The old mansion first. They thought that mary might have been hiding there, Or that she could have left some sort of clue over there.
They headed outside with everyone except Sebastian. They were in the middle of a forest that went by the name called Autumn, Yes it was named after a season. It was called Autumn because it's trees were constantly dried and shedding leaves and the whole forest had maple trees in it.
During the walk, Jessica thought of many things. What if they were going to just use her, What if they were actually the bad ones, what if mary had left? And when she thought of the word left, She remembered Diana. She missed Diana, Diana was very important to Jessica and somehow Diana had a power. She could move things with her mind, But didn't have the control over it and Jessica didn't question it.
They had arrived. Jessica leaded them to the Eastern forest with the help of Kai and as they reached the eastern forest Jessica stopped and turned around.
"All of you can come inside the forest. I have a feeling that I can trust you." Jessica assured them and continued walking when suddenly she saw a drop of blood on the ground. She ran towards the mansion hoping it wasn't Mary's blood and as she reached right in front of the mansion, She saw it.
Susan. She was hanged over a branch that was right in front of the force field. She looked like she was dragged from the town based on the mud across her body. All her fingers except her right hands index finger were cut off. Eleanor had done this, She's coming back. One of Eleanor's signature moves was to cut of the fingers of her victims but that was not it. Susan's throat had been slit and the blood was still dropping to the ground.
Jessica was horrified as she ran towards the body, She tried to get her down from the branch with the help of Caroline. As the body laid on the ground she saw that the force field wasn't the same. It was barricaded, By that it meant that no one on the outside could enter it at all nor could anyone on the inside ever leave, Mary was in control of the force field and she'd told Jessica that if the force field ever barricaded then Jessica had to run if she was on the outside.
Jessica lost it. Susan was one of the first people that she had met in that town, Susan was Jessica's only friend. Jessica held Susan's body in her arms as she tried to process what had happened to her.
The earth began shaking as huge chunks of the ground began to get separated from the ground and move upwards towards them.
The ground didn't stop shaking, Now it was shaking even harder and everyone stood there in surprise. Tree's became unrooted as even bigger chunks of the ground started to move upwards and into the air.
"Jessica stop it. Jessica it's Alright you can stop it- Caroline would have continued if it weren't for Jessica to raise her hand and motion her to stop. The chunks began to fall down and the tree's stopped getting torn apart from the earth. Jessica took a deep breath and she closed her eyes, Doing everything possible to not break down. She kept the body down and stood up, Looking at her blood stained shirt. She didn't say another word as the group understood.
"Jessica we'll have a funeral if you want to," Kai told her, Hoping for a reply. Any reply.
"Lets leave. Eleanor has been here, It's not safe." Jessica replied as her voice broke down a bit. She walked out, Knowing that they were behind her. Eleanor had bought herself her death as Jessica swore vengeance, Even if it meant that she had to kill someone.
