Chapter Twenty-Two
MIKAELSON COMPOUND
The next
Morning in the study, Christy is sitting at the coffee table with a small vail of her husband's, klaus's, blood. She pours the small vial into a pestle bowl.
{Christy's Outfit}
"Hey, Christy." Marcel said.
Christy glances up at her best friend. "Hey, Marcel."
"What are you up to?" Marcel asked.
"Making an antidote for Klaus." Christy replied. "I just need a small vial of Zenith's blood."
"How are you gonna get it?" Marcel asked.
"I don't know." Christy replied.
"You told me Thalia has her mountain monastery." Marcel said.
"Zenith's with her as well." Christy said to him.
"I'll go to Thalia's mountain monastery." Marcel said. "I'll take Josh and Gia." and walks away.
"Marcel?" Christy said, making him stopped walking and looks at her. "Be careful. Zenith is an Elder God and Thalia is a strong woman with hand-to-hand combat skills."
"And she has her League Rogue warriors, I got it." Marcel said, and walks away.

Klaus slowly walks inside the study and sees a pestle bowl and with a small empty vial. He slowly walks up to it as Christy slowly walks inside.
"Don't touch that, please?" Christy said.
"Okay, not touching." Klaus said. "What the hell is it?" He asked.
"It's a pestle bowl with an small inch of your blood in it." Christy told him.
Klaus gives her a look, and Christy gives him one right back.
"We spoke about an antidote last night, and here you are, making one." Klaus said.
"Yeah." Christy said, and slowly walked up to him. "Marcel's doing me a favor by getting some of Zenith's blood."
"Aurora's in the French Quarter." Klaus told Christy.
"I know. Sofya told me. And if she lays a hand on you, I'll turn her inside out." Christy said to him.
Klaus small smiles at her. "Remind me to not ever piss you off."
Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other and they kiss each other. They proceed to kiss, passionately. And he gently turns her around with her back to his chest and plants a small kiss on her neck, with her eyes closed.
Klaus bares his fangs as he prepares to bite Christy on her neck, but catches himself in the wall mirror. His eyes are golden with small veins underneath his eyes and his fangs.
"Klaus?" Christy said, looking at him through the mirror.
"I'm sorry." Klaus apologized, and vamp-sped away.
Christy becomes worried, hoping that Klaus doesn't give into his thirst for blood.

Later on
that afternoon, Marcel has brought back a small vial of Zenith's blood.
"I'm not gonna asks how you gotten Zenith's blood." Christy said, pouring his blood into the pestle bowl.
"I may have stabbed Zenith's with a knife as we fought." Marcel said.
"And you asked Vincent to do a spell to transfer Zenith's blood off the blood-stained knife onto the small vial." said Christy.
"Yeah." Marcel said.
Marcel and Christy exchange small smiles at each other as she prepares the antidote.
meanwhile...
Klaus is wandering around in the French Quarter, and he manages to stumble into an alleyway, upon being consumed by his cravings for blood.
A woman walks by, talking on the phone. And Klaus suddenly, grabs her, and pins her against the brick wall.
"I'm sorry, Love." Klaus apologized, making his eyes glow golden with protruding veins underneath his eyes. "But I'm a bit famished." and bares his fangs, much to the woman's frightful.
Suddenly, Marcel vamp-speed to Klaus and pulls him away from the frightful woman.
"Marcel? I'm not in a mood." Klaus told him.
"Yeah, I know." Marcel said, and looks at the frightened woman and compels her. "Forget me and my best friend, and go home."
The compelled woman walks away, not knowing what just happened.
"Oh, great." Klaus said, sarcastically.
"Oh, great. I just saved your ass from almost feeding on a woman." Marcel said. "So, how about a "thank you".
Klaus vamp-speed Marcel to a wall, holding him by his jacket collar. "I don't want to hurt you, Marcellus, but I will if I have to."
"Christy has the antidote to cure your blood thirst. She sent me to look for you." Marcel told him.
Klaus slowly calms down and gently lets go of Marcel. "Christy's always saving me."
"Yeah. We can talk about that afters. But right now, you need come with me to the compound." Marcel said.
Klaus nodded. He and Marcel walks away.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND
In the study, Klaus is sitting on the sofa, taking a swig of small cup of antidote concoction. He looks at his inner right forearm and his puncture bite wound heals itself.
"How do you feel?" Christy asked her husband.
"Like you just saved me from almost biting you and Marcel just saved me from almost feeding on a compelled woman." Klaus said with a sense of humor, looking up at her.
Christy gives him a look that says "really".
"But seriously, I'm fine." Klaus reassured her.
"Good." Christy replied to her husband, and puts a reassuring hand on his shoulder. And looks at Marcel. "Thanks, Marcel. I owe you one."
"You don't owe anything, Christy. You're my best friend." Marcel said.
"Marcel?" Klaus said. "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Marcel said. "I gotta get back to my guys, but I'll see you two lovebirds around."
"Okay." Christy said. "Love you, Marcel."
"Love you too, Christy." Marcel said, and walks away.
Klaus takes another swig of his antidote concoction and gently sets down the cup on the coffee table.
"Are you sure you're gonna be okay?" Christy asked him.
Klaus looks up at her and gently sets her down in his lap. "I'm sure I'm gonna be fine. But still pondering a way to makeup for you for saving my ass."
"You don't have to, Klaus." Christy replied. "I'm just a wife taking care of my husband."
"I'm supposed to be the one taking care of my family. From now on, I'm gonna keep my promise I made to you and our daughters."
Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other and she gently her head atop of his.
"You're still an arrogant asshole though." Christy said.
Klaus and Christy exchange playfully chuckles with each other.

ROUSSEAU'S
That night, Christy is sitting at the bar counter, eating a slice of Declan's dessert; a sponge cake with a fork.
"The Sponge cake's really good, Declan." Christy said.
"Thanks, Christy." Declan said from the kitchen.
The door opens and closes.
"Hello, Christiana." Marcalos greeted her.
Christy looks at Marcalos. "Marcalos."
"It's a been a long while." Marcalos said.
Marcalos and Christy exchange annoyed looks at each other.
