Chapter Twenty-Six
MIKAELSON COMPOUND
The next day, after Odessa's party, Klaus and Christy lays on the bed, asleep, still wearing their formal attires with Christy's silver pumps lays on the ottoman.
Christy stirs awake and looks at her still sleeping husband, Klaus. Not wanting to wake him up, she gently sits up straight and gets off the bed.
She slowly walks over to her drawer and gets herself some new clothes. She wals behind her room divider and gets changed.

Afterwards, downstairs in the courtyard, Christy is sitting in an armchair, typing on her laptop, adding some more chapter pages to her new book.
{Christy Outfit}
Christy takes a sip of her cup of orange juice and continues working on her book.
An awakened Klaus slowly walks downstairs and into the courtyard. He slowly walks up behind her and gently places his hands on her shoulders.
"Morning, Honey." Christy greeted her husband.
"Hello, Love." Klaus greeted her back. He pecks a kiss on her right cheek and looks at her laptop screen. "I can't wait to read it."
"Yeah, I know." Christy said.
Klaus walks from behind her and sits down in the armchair next to her. "What made you decide to type up another story?"
"I guess when Luna mentioned it when we were eating together in the kitchen at Mount Orasani." Christy said to him. "And besides, the last book I typed was "Beautiful Passion Book two and everyone loved it."
"You do have a keen for books." Klaus said.
"I love reading, Klaus." Christy said.
"Even your favorite, "Romeo and Juliet", what a sad tragedy." Klaus said.
"They were both young and fell in love with each other despite their families being enemies." said Christy.
"But they didn't have to die, they could've lived happily ever after together and could've lived a blissful life." Klaus said.
"Yeah, they could have, but sadly, it didn't turn out that way." Christy said.
"So, you're not gonna give me a tad bit of a hint of your story?" Klaus asked.
Christy chuckled and so does Klaus.
"Alright fine. There's this guy named Sebastian. He's a noble Prince, compassionate, generous and kind-hearted. And then there's this woman named Liliana. She's a Handmaiden Assistant to an evil witch."
"Let me guess, Sebastian has eyes for Liliana and the evil witch became jealous and cursed them both?" Klaus guessed.
"I'm not gonna spoil it." Christy said.
Klaus and Christy exchange chuckles with each other.
Christy's phone buzzes in her pants pocket. She takes out her phone and looks at it.
Ana
Christy answers her phone. "Hey, Ana. What's up?"
"I need your help with something." Ana said on the phone. "Are you occupied with anything?"
"No, I'm not." Christy said. "Where are you?"
"I'm with Josh at Algiers." Ana tells her on the phone.
"Alright, I'm on my way." Christy said, and hangs up her phone and glances at Klaus. "I have to go and help Ana with something."
"Okay." Klaus said.
Christy closes her laptop and puts it in her backpack. She gets up and walks away.

ALGIERS -- MARCEL'S LOFT
Later that day, Christy slowly walks inside and sees Marcel, Josh and Ana.
"Hey, Christy. Hey, Ana." Josh greeted both women.
"Hey, Josh." Christy greeted him with a small smile.
"Marcel? Tell Christy what you told me." Ana said.
"Some Shadow Priests and Priestess were spotted around the French Quarter." Marcel told her. "They've been leaving their dark sigils in the Lafayette Cemetery."
"Maeve and her group of Shadows has returned." Christy said and gently folds her arms.
"Do you remember how to stop them, Christy?" Marcel asked.
"It's been so long since we've encountered Maeve, but we'll figure it out." Christy said. "We just need to draw them out somewhere."
"We can trap them in St. Anne's Church." Josh suggested.
"We can." Ana said. "We just need to find out where they are."
"I may know someone who can." Christy said.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND
Nikole is reclining on her couch, listening to some electro-pop instrumental music on her Bluetooth headphones.
Christy gently knocks on the doorway. Nikole looks at her and small smiles and takes off her headphones.
"Hi, Cousin Christy." Nikole greeted.
"Hi, Nik. I need your help with something." Christy said.
"Okay, sure." Nikole said. "What is it?"
Christy walks up to Nikole and sits down next to her on the couch.
"I need you to perform a locator spell. Marcel, Ana and I are looking for a small group of evil people that uses dark magic. I would use my magic, but I can't because I might risk becoming my dark alter ego." Christy said.
"Okay. I can do it." Nikole said.
"Okay." Christy said.
⚜️⚜️
In the courtyard, Nikole is sitting at the table with her mother's map with four candle-lit candles at each end of the table.
Christy is sitting on the fountain. "You can do this, Nik."
Nikole gently sprinkles some black sand on the map and quietly chants a locator spell to find Maeve and the Shadow Priests and Priestess.
The black sand slowly moves itself around the map and lands on the place where Maeve and the Shadows are.
"Cousin Christy, Maeve is at the St. Anne's Church." Nikole tells her.
Christy gets up and slowly walks up next to Nikole and looks at Maeve's location on the map.
"Good job, Nik." Christy said.
Christy and Nikole high-fives each other. Christy takes out her phone and dials Ana's phone.
"Hey, Christy." Ana said on the phone.
"Hey, Ana. I have Maeve's location. She's at the St. Anne's Church. I have a plan." Christy said and hangs up her phone.
"Good luck, Christy." Nikole said.
"Thanks, Nik." Christy said to her.
Nikole and Christy exchange small smiles at each other and Christy walks away.

ST. ANNE'S CHURCH
Later that afternoon, Maeve and the four Shadow Priests and Priestess are standing in a circle, chanting.
"Hi, Maeve." Christy greeted the head Shadow Priestess.
Maeve looks at Christy. "Hello, Christiana. It's been a while since you and I have encountered."
"Yeah, it has." Christy said. "I did tell you don't come back, but you didn't listen to my warning."
Maeve used her staff to magically sling Christy backwards and falls on the floor in the aisle.
Maeve saunters up to Christy and tries to stab her, but Christy makes her eyes glow blue and energy blasts Maeve away from her.
"Marcel?!" Christy exclaimed, slowly getting back up to her feet.
Suddenly, Marcel and Ana vamp-sped to the four Shadow Priests and Priestess and subdues them.
Josh vamp-sped next to Christy with a magical bomb.
"Christiana?!" Maeve exclaimed.
"Like I told you, you shouldn't have come back to the French Quarter." Christy told her.
And Josh throws the magical bomb at Maeve and the four Shadow Priests and Priestess just as Marcel and Ana vamp-sped away.
Maeve and the four Shadow Priests and Priestess burns to death with the magical bomb.

ALIGERS -- JOSH'S LOFT
That night, Marcel, Ana, Christy and Josh had regrouped at Josh's loft. They're sitting on the couches with their drinks of bourbon.
"After dealing with the scary evil priests and priestess, for once, I would like some good news." Josh said.
Christy small smiles to herself. "I'm being legendary honored at the Orasanian Expo."
Marcel, Ana and Josh looks at Christy and smiles, happily, at her.
"Oh my gosh, congratulations, Christy." Ana said, playfully nudging her shoulder with hers. "You must be so proud of yourself."
"I am." Christy said with a small smile. "I'm still a little bit surprised myself."
"You should be proud of yourself, Christy. I mean, you're being legendary honored at the Orasanian Expo, that's a pretty big deal." said Josh.
"Yeah, it is." Marcel said.
"By the way, how did you learn kickboxing?" Ana asked. "You have some badass moves."
Christy chuckled softly to herself. "I learned kickboxing from the Orasanian Elite Academy."
"You know a lot, huh?" Marcel asked.
"I have a lot of training and knowledge as a little kid growing up." Christy said. "I leaned that nothing is handed to you, you have to earn it."
"True about that." Ana agreed.
"Well, congratulations again. You earned it, Christy." Marcel congratulated her with a small smile.
Marcel, Ana, Christy and Josh exchange small smiles at each other and drinks their bourbon.

Later that night, Christy slowly walks inside the courtyard and sees Luna and Trinity playing the Sorry! board game at the table.
"Hi, Mom." Luna greeted her mother.
"Hey, sweethearts." Christy greeted her daughters with a small smile, slowly walks over to them.
"Congratulations, Mom." Trinity congratulated her mother.
"Dad told us that you're legendary honored at the Orasanian Expo tomorrow afternoon." said Luna.
"Yeah, I am." Christy said, sitting at the table with them.
"Hey, Mom. If it's not too much, could you show us your blindfold technique?" Luna asked.
"You sure you want to learn it? It's sort of a little difficult?" Christy asked.
"We're sure." Luna said.
"Okay, then." Christy said. "Where's your father?"
"In the study with Elijah, Rebekah and Kol. Something came up." Trinity said.
"Oh, okay." Christy said.
Trinity hands her mother a green game piece.
"Luna has red, I have blue, and you have green." Trinity said.
"Okay, I'm gonna have to catch up." Christy said.
Christy, Luna and Trinity exchange chuckles with each other and they play the board game together.
