Chapter Twenty-Four
MIKAELSON COMPOUND
The next morning, Christy had used to the Spell of Unknotting to magically unlink both Nikole and Trinity from Thalia.
{Christy's Outfit}
In the hallway, Christy slowly walks into Trinity's bedroom and sees Luna and Trinity asleep.
Christy closes Luna's bedroom, she and Mathias exchange looks at each other.
"How's Nikole?" Christy asked Mathias.
"She's asleep. Freya's with her." Mathias replied. "How's Trinity?"
"She's fine, asleep. Luna's with her." Christy said.
Mathias and Christy exchange looks at each other. Suddenly, she has a premonition.
Christy's Premonition
The sky is dark blue, along with dark blue clouds, covering the sun. Zenith's Ravens are flying in a circle, squawking in the process.
Reality
Christy is kneeling down on the floor, gently leaning sideways on the hallway wall.
"Christy?" Mathias asked, crouched down beside her. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine." Christy reassured him.
"What was your premonition about?" Mathias asked.
"The sky was dark blue and dark blue clouds. Ravens were flying around in a circle in the French Quarter." Christy told Mathias, slowly getting up to her feet.
"Is that good or not good?" Mathias asked, slowly getting back to his feet.
"It's not good." Christy said.
⚜️⚜️
In the ballroom, Mathias is doing a locator spell to find Zenith.
"Zenith isn't at Thalia's mountain monastery anymore. He must've relocated himself or has cloaked himself." Mathias said.
"Zenith is smart. And he didn't cloak himself." Christy replied.
"How do you know?" Klaus asked.
"I can sense him. He's at the Laforge House." Christy said.
"Is Zenith dangerous?" Elijah asked.
"He can be when he wants to be. You can't trust Zenith either." Christy said. "And there's something else."
"Such as?" Klaus asked.
Christy looks at both Klaus and Elijah. "I had a premonition."
"About what?" Klaus asked.
"The sky and clouds were dark blue. And Zenith's Ravens were flying around in a circle, in the sky. And I think it's not good." Christy told Klaus and Elijah.
"And there's something else." Mathias said.
"What is it?" Christy asked.
"Freya and I have made a mystical dagger that can destroy Zenith." Mathias said.
"Where is the mystical dagger?" Christy asked.
"Freya put in the desk drawer in the study. For safekeeping." Mathias said.
Christy's phone buzzes in her skirt pocket. She pulls out her phone and looks at it.
Trinity
Christy answers it. "Hey, Trinity. Are you okay?"
"Yeah, Mom, I'm fine. Nikole is too." Trinity reassured. "Luna, Nikole and I are at the LaRue safe house. And the skiff aircraft thing is broken."
⚜️⚜️
LARUE SAFE HOUSE
That afternoon, Klaus, Elijah and Christy are outside in the backyard with Luna, Trinity and Nikole.
The skiff aircraft has been destroyed.
"The skiff aircraft is gone, Mom." Luna said to her.
"Oh, crap. Zenith must've been here." Christy said, and looks at Luna, Trinity and Nikole. "I'm sorry, guys."
"It's okay." Trinity said. "At least, Luna and I gotten to visit in it."
"Christiana?" Elijah said.
"I'll meet you guys back at the compound." Christy said, disappearing into golden dust.
⚜️⚜️
LAFORGE HOUSE
Christy shows up in the main room, looking for Zenith.
"Zenith?" Christy said.
"I apologize for the skiff aircraft." Zenith said from the main room indoor balcony railing. "Caicos can always make another one."
"What the hell's with you, Zenith?" Christy asked, looking up at him. "You went to Mount Orasani and tried to destroy it for the second time, you have an alliance with Thalia, and now, you're living in the old Laforge House. Resentment gets old, let bygones be bygones."
Zenith leaps over the balcony railing and lands on the floor in a crouched stance and gets back up to his feet.
"I wish I could let bygones be bygones, Christiana. But I've known you since you were a child. Your mother, Nadia, exiled me to my Moor realm." Zenith said.
"And now, you took out your vengeance on Mount Orasani?" Christy said to him. Zenith slowly walks away from her. "What happened to you, Zenith? I used to adore you as a child, but now, I don't know who you are anymore."
Zenith turns around to look at Christy again. "I've changed, Christy. And you have too." and slowly walks back up to her. "You don't think I know about your darkness. Thalia didn't have to tell me of it. I already sensed it. Your darkness will re-emerge itself. You even joined Marcalos's League Rogue Warriors."
"I did that to protect my family and best friends." Christy told him.
"You really are your parents's daughter." Zenith said. "But you're more like your mother. Smart, benevolent, selfless. Cherish your family, Christiana."
Zenith and Christy exchange mildly looks at each other.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND
That evening, in the study, Christy is sitting on the sofa, looking at the mystical dagger that Mathias and Freya has made.
Klaus slowly walks inside the study. "Luna, Trinity and Nikole are with Keelin in the kitchen, making soufflés, I just thought you should know."
"Okay." Christy said, still looking at the mystical dagger in her hand. "Why can't we just be happy, Klaus?"
"We can be happy again." Klaus said, slowly walks up to her and sits down on the coffee table. "But sometimes, our enemies tries to destroy our happiness."
Klaus and Christy exchange looks at each other and he gently takes the mystical dagger from Christy's hand and puts it in his inside jacket pocket.
"Zenith is an Elder God and there's no possibility of defeating him. My Dad, Ames, defeated him once, and I don't know if my Dad can do it again. I'm pretty sure he can, but I don't want him to, Zenith's gotten stronger." Christy said to Klaus.
"Whatever Zenith is up to, we'll stop him together." Klaus said.
Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.
Trinity walks up to the doorway of the study. "Mom? Dad? The soufflés are ready."
"Okay, be there in a little minute, sweetheart." Christy said.
"Okay." Trinity said, and walks away.
Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.
⚜️⚜️
In the courtyard, Klaus, Christy, Luna, Trinity, Nikole are eating their soufflés on a picnic blanket.
"Hey, guys. I have a date at Rousseau's, but i ate half of my soufflé." Keelin said, putting her tote bag on her shoulder.
"Okay, I'll plastic wrap it for you, auntie Keelin." Luna said.
"A date at Rousseau's? He's a handsome hottie." Christy said with a playfully smile.
Keelin chuckled. "It's just drinks, Christy. But I'll see you guys around." and slowly walks away.
"Okay, have fun with your date at Rousseau's. Don't drink too much." Christy said.
"Love you too, Christy." Keelin said, walking away.
Christy playfully small smiles to herself, and takes a small spoonful of her soufflé.
Christy's phone buzzes in her skirt pocket. She pulls out her phone and looks at it.
Zenith
Christy answers her phone. "Zenith?"
"I need some of your help, Christy." Zenith said to her on the phone.
"What for?" Christy asked.
"I just need some of your help with something." Zenith said. "Meet me at the LaRue safe house. Come alone." and hangs up his phone.
"What did Zenith want?" Klaus asked.
"I don't know, he didn't tell me of why." Christy said to her husband. "But one thing's for sure, Klaus, I don't trust Zenith. Are you and Elijah coming along with me?"
"Of course." Klaus said.
