OUT AND ABOUT IN THE FRENCH QUARTER

Early morning, a few months has passed. Ordinary people wanders around, enjoying themselves with food and entertainment.

A gust of golden dust swirls up from the ground in an alleyway, and Christy slowly  walks out of the alleyway.

{Christy's Outfit}

Christy slowly walks further away from the alleyway and makes her way to the Jackson Square.

Upon sensing her father, Ames, she slowly walks away from the Jackson Square and atop of a rooftop.

Ames is looking at the buildings as Christy slowly walks up beside him.

"Dad." Christy greeted her father.

Ames looks at his daughter and small smiles. "Hi, Christiana."

Ames and Christy shares a hug and exchange small smiles at each other.

"How are you?" Ames asked her.

"I'm good. How are you, Dad?" Christy asked him.

"Pretty well myself." Ames replied, gently leaning on the rooftop's edge.

"But something worries you." Christy said, becoming worried herself.

Ames and Christy exchange worried looks at each other.

"You and I both know that Marcalos has become vengeful." Ames said.

"Marcalos is the Elder God of the Underworld, he's always wicked vengeful." Christy said.

"It's Marcalos's daughter, Thalia." Ames said. "She may be up to something."

"Yeah. I know. She has a mountain monastery. It's her hideout." Christy said.

Another golden dust swirls up from the building's rooftop. And Maximus slowly walks up to Ames and Christy.

"Ames? Christy?" Maximus greeted them both.

"Maximus? You and Gia have gotten closer to each other." Ames said with a small smile.

Maximus small smiles to himself upon the mention of Gia. "Yeah. She and I have gotten closer to each other. But you guys were talking about Thalia."

Ames slowly walks away, and Maximus and Christy slowly walks after him. "Thalia is not to be trusted. She may be the headmistress of her own League Warrior combatants. Marcalos and Lorena has trained her very well with both a sword and a bow and arrow. She's menacing and mischievous."

"Just like her mother and father." Christy said. "I'll keep an eye on my family and best friends. I haven't seen them in a few months."

"Thalia has stealthy spies in the French Quarter. And she will also use leverage to get what she wants." Ames said.

"We'll be careful, Ames." Maximus said.

"Yeah, Dad. What Maximus said, we'll be careful." Christy said.

"Alright. I'll see you two back at Mount Orasae." Ames said, slowly walking away, disappearing into golden dust.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

Later on that morning, in Klaus's and Christy's bedroom, Klaus is painting on his canvas, which is on a canvas easel.

Klaus spaces out as glimpses of his dark-side goes through his mind. The monstrous misdeeds that he has done in Mystic Falls and in the French Quarter.

Klaus composes himself and refocus on his canvas.

He glances at a picture frame of him and Christy small smiles with Luna and Trinity on the nightstand.

Christy slowly walks into the bedroom. She and Klaus exchange looks at each other.

"Christy?" Klaus said.

"Hey, Klaus." Christy greeted her husband with a small smile.

Klaus sets down his painting materials on the coffee table and Christy slowly walks up to him and they hugs each other. He gently lifts her up off the floor, gently spinning around her around and gently sets her back down on her feet.

"I miss you too." Christy said, gently pulls away from the hug.

"What are you doing here? I mean, it's good to see you." Klaus said.

"I'm just checking on you guys." Christy said to him, and gently cups his face with her hands, becoming worried. "Are you okay? You seem a bit tired?"

"Yeah. I'm fine. I just haven't been able to get any sleep lately." Klaus said to her.

"It's the herbs isn't it?" Christy said to him. "Marcalos has been giving you his herbs."

"Yeah. And you were right about Marcalos's herbs, it slowly wears off." Klaus said to her. "But I can handle it."

"Marcalos uses his herbs to mental torture your mind. Trust me. I know." Christy said.

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other and she looks at her room divider which has a silver dress on it.

"What's with the dress?" Christy asked, slowly walking over to her room divider.

"I've been meaning to have a formal dance, but I couldn't." Klaus said.

"It's beautiful." Christy said, gently caressing the dress with her fingers.

"I hope you wear it." Klaus said.

Christy looks at Klaus and small smiles. "I do too."

ROUSSEAU'S

That afternoon, Christy, Luna and Trinity are at Rousseau's, sitting at a table, eating their bread pudding with spoons.

"This bread pudding is really good." Christy said, eating a small spoonful.

"Yeah. Trinity and I like it so much." Luna said with a small smile.

"Yeah. Bread pudding is really good." Trinity said.

"Luna? Trinity?" Christy said.

"Oh, no. That's your 'Luna and Trinity, I wanna talk to you guys about something' tone." said Luna.

Christy small smiles to herself. "Yeah. I do. Luna? Trinity? I know I've haven't been around here in a few months, I mean, I do magically pop up and visit you guys, and telepathic communicate with you guys, but Luna? Trinity? I want you guys to talk about anything."

Luna and Trinity exchange looks at each other.

"We do miss you, Mommy." Trinity said. "But Luna and I do love you very much."

"Yeah. What Trinity said." Luna said. "By the way, is Dad gonna be okay? He seemed a little tired?"

"Yeah." Trinity said.

"Marcalos gave your Dad some herbs and that's why your Dad's not been able to get any sleep." Christy said. "But he's gonna be fine." She reassured her daughters.

"Okay." Luna said.

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

"Hi, Declan." Christy greeted him.

"Hey, Christy." Declan greeted back at her.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

That night, in Klaus's and Christy's bedroom, Klaus and Christy lays in bed, asleep, underneath the bedcover.

{Christy's Nightdress}

Christy gently pats the bedside beside her, but Klaus isn't laying beside her. She tiredly wakes up and sits up straight, and looks at Klaus, gently leaning backwards on the small balcony wall.

Slowly getting out of the bed, Christy slowly walks over to Klaus, worriedly.

"Klaus? Can't sleep." Christy said.

"Not really no." Klaus replied to her. "I guess I deserved this."

"Klaus?" Christy said.

"All of the monstrous things that I've done, the people that I've destroyed, maimed, tortured I deserve this, Christy. And don't say I don't." Klaus said, slowly walks away from her, gently leaning on the small balcony.

"We've all done bad things, Klaus. Even me. When I was under the influence of Marcalos's dark herbs, I was willing to let you, Elijah, Rebekah, Freya and Kol die." Christy tells him. And Klaus turns around to look at her. "But the good part of me resurfaced, and I came back to myself and saved you guys. And when The Hollow possessed me, I was willingly to destroy you again."

"I know." Klaus said, recalling the moment that Christy became Darth Christy while she was temporarily in the second-in-command, League of Warriors and her being possessed by The Hollow.

"And Marcalos's dark herbs, the herbs tortures your mind." Christy said, slowly walks up to him, gently cupping his face with her hands. "We've all sinned, Klaus. But we can also be forgiven for it. So, can you."

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

"I can take it away if you want." Christy suggested. "Mathias had a nightmare about Dahlia and I took it away from him."

"It's fine. I can handle it. But thanks." Klaus said with a small smile.

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other and gently leans their foreheads on each other's.

3RD POV

At Thalia's mountain monastery, Marcalos and Lorena are sparring with each other using swords in the main room.

"You've gotten stronger." Marcalos said to his daughter with a small smile.

"I have, Dad." said Thalia with a small smile. "And how's Mom?"

"You're mother's fine." Marcalos said. "And as for Christiana?"

"I already have a scheme ploy for her." Thalia said. "I'm gonna destroy Christiana, and everyone she holds close to her heart."

Marcalos and Thalia exchange small menacing grins at each other.
