FRENCH QUARTER

                The next morning, Christy is out and about taking a stroll on the phone with Klaus.

{Christy's Outfit}

"Klaus, I just can't stay at home and lounge around, I need to move around, exercise myself." Christy said to her husband, Klaus.

"I know, but still, I'm worried about you." Klaus replied on the phone.

"I know. But I have another immortal soul that Marcalos would love to have?" Christy said.

"Who do you have in mind, Love?" Klaus asked, curiously.

"Mikael." Christy replied. "He's as wicked as ever."

"Good idea." Klaus said.

"That can be a plan B, don't you think, Klaus?" Christy said.

"Yeah, you're right, we'll discuss it when you return back home. Love you." Klaus said.

"Love you too." Christy replied back, and hangs up her phone, and puts it back in her jeans pocket. And senses Thalia behind her. "It's not good sneaking up on someone, Thalia."

And Christy turns around to look at Thalia. "What do you want?"

"You know, you should be at home. Don't want you fading due to your scab wounds." Thalia said cheeky, gently leaning sideways on a pillar.

"Don't mess with me right now, but when I recover, you're mine." Christy said to Thalia.

Thalia smirks. "My Dad wants Klaus's immortal wicked soul exchange for the antidote to heal you."

"Your father, Marcalos, said that you have the antidote at your mountain monastery." Christy said. "But knowing you, Thalia, you're not as mischievous menacing as your father."

Thalia and Christy exchange mildly looks at each other and Christy walks away.

ROUSSEAU'S

Christy is sitting at a round table with her ice cream sundae, eating the soft serve ice cream with a spoon.

"Hey, Christy." Josh greeted her with a small smile, sitting down at the round table with her. "How are you?"

"I'm fine." Christy reassured him.

Josh glances at the three small scab wounds on Christy's back of her hand. "I think you should go home and get some sleep."

"Yeah, I will. After I eat my ice cream sundae." Christy said.

Josh and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

"You know what, you're right, Josh." Christy said, and eats the rest of her ice cream sundae. "I'm gonna go home."

"Okay." Josh said.

"Okay." Christy said, and gets up to her feet, but a fever suddenly becomes her and she faints, hitting the side of her head on the table.

"Christy?" Josh said, getting up and kneeling down beside her, and gently cradles her in his arms.

ST. THEODORA CLINIC

After Josh phone contacted about Christy, Klaus walks inside, worriedly.

Klaus looks at Keelin and walks up to her. "Keelin?"

"Christy's fever is high. I've been supplying her with medical pills to try and ease her fever. But other than the scab wounds, I don't know what else to do." Keelin told Klaus.

"Maybe, I can." Thalia said.

Both Klaus and Keelin looks at Thalia.

"Thalia?" Klaus said, and vamp-speeded over to her, gently pinning her against a wall. "What the hell are you doing here? I have a mind to tear your spline?"

"I have this ..." Thalia said, showing Klaus the antidote healing potion. "... it can heal Christy's illness, I assure you."

"How do I know this isn't a trick?" Klaus asked Thalia, unconvinced.

"While you stand here, pondering, your beloved wife's, Christiana's illness worsens." Thalia replied.

Klaus glances at the antidote healing potion, gently takes it and hands it to Keelin. "Keelin?"

"I'll update you." Keelin said, and walks away.

"Why are you doing this, Thalia?" Klaus asked, slowly walks away from her and looks at her. "Merely, you're not doing this out of your heart?"

"My father, Marcalos, may be the King of the Underworld and I'm his daughter, and also may be mischievous and menacing, but I am not as wicked as him." Thalia tells Klaus. "By the way, you don't even have to exchange your immortal soul for the antidote. And I don't want Luna and Trinity to lose their mother as well."

Klaus and Thalia exchange annoyed looks at each other, and Thalia walks away.

⚜️⚜️

That afternoon, Christy is laying in a bed, wearing a clinic gown, Keelin had put the blue liquid antidote in a IV bag and has injected it into a tube, that's in Christy's arm.

And thus far, Christy's scab wounds has slowly healed.

"It's working, Klaus." Keelin said. "The antidote's working."

"That's good." Klaus said.

The door opens; Luna slowly walks inside and closes the door. "Hey, Dad. Hey, auntie Keelin."

"Hi, Luna." Klaus and Keelin said in unison.

Luna glances at her Mom, Christy, and looks at her Dad and Keelin again. "Is Mom gonna be okay?"

"Yeah. She's gonna be fine." Keelin reassured Luna. "Christy's gonna make a full recovery."

Klaus, Luna and Keelin exchange small smiles at each other.

shortly afterwards...

Christy slowly regains her conscious and looks at Luna, who's sitting in a chair sideways, snacking on a banana pudding with a spoon.

"Luna?" Christy said.

Luna looks at her Mom. "Hey, Mom. How are you?" She asked.

"I'm fine." Christy said, slowly sitting up straight. "Where's Trinity?"

"With Uncle Mathias and Auntie Freya." Luna replied. "By the way, Dad is with Keelin as well."

Christy and Luna exchange mildly looks at each other.

"Just let me have it, Lu." Christy said to her daughter.

Luna eats the rest of her banana pudding and tosses the empty pudding cup in the trash can. "Mom, Trinity and I don't want to lose you, and I'm pretty sure Dad doesn't want to either. You keep sacrificing yourself. I get it. But Trinity and I doesn't want to be motherless."

Christy and Luna exchange gloomy looks at each other.

"A parents's first instinct is to always protect their child from harm and to keep their children safe." Christy said to her. "Do you recall when Trinity was taken by Lorena?"

"Yeah. She was a toddler." Luna said.

"And after you and Trinity were reunited with each other, you didn't let your little sister get an inch away from you because you didn't want to lose her again. So, I'm sorry, Luna." Christy said.

Luna gets up and slowly lays down beside Christy, gently leaning her head on her shoulder. "I love you, Mom."

"I love you too, Luna." Christy said back to her first daughter. "And by the way, are you any good with your bow and arrow?"

"Yeah. I think so." Luna replied. "And I'm pretty sure that I can kick your butt with a sword."

Christy and Luna exchange small smiles at each other and chuckles.

And from the door, Klaus small smiles to himself, happy that both his wife and daughter had made up from their mother-daughter argument.

ST. ANNE'S CHURCH GYM

Later on that late afternoon, after Christy's discharged from the clinic, Christy, Luna and Trina slowly walks inside.

{Christy's Outfit}

"What are we doing here, Mom?" Trinity asked her Mom.

"Something that your older big sister, Luna, told me." Christy said to her, exchanging small smiles at Luna. "I've been focusing on my enemies, but also, I lost my focus on my daughters. I love you both very much. And yes, their will be some enemies, and your Dad and I will handle them."

"We love you too, Mom." Luna and Trinity said in unison.

Christy, Luna and Trinity exchange small smiles at each other and they shares a hug with each other.

"Hi, Christiana." Lorena said.

Christy looks at Lorena. "Lorena."

Lorena and Christy exchange annoyed looks at each other.

"What do you want, Lorena?" Christy asked her old nemesis.

"Nothing much. It's been a long while since you and I have encountered each other." said Lorena, looks at Luna and Trinity. "Hi, Luna. Trinity. I assume that you know who I am?"

"You're the wicked lady sorceress, Lorena." Trinity said.

"I am. And I'm also Marcalos's wife and Thalia's mother as well." Lorena said.

"I know Thalia has her League Rogue warriors spies around in the French Quarter." Christy said. "But my quarrel with you is done, Lorena."

Lorena sly smiles. "Oh, Christy. I'm not gonna harm you in front your daughters. But you're right about one thing though, your quarrel with me is done, but I'll see you around."

Lorena and Christy exchange mildly looks at each other and Lorena magically disappears into red smoke.

Christy, Luna and Trinity exchange worried looks at each other.
