The Mikaleson family celebrated the defeat of the two archangels. Rhaenyra on the other hand was exhausted. She could handle vampires, witches, even demons. But, archangels were a whole different deal. They were angelic beings. So, her children had her on bed rest. Well, they tried to keep her there for more than a few hours but she was a stubborn woman. She did rest but not as much as her children hope she would. Instead, she was up and about. She decided to celebrate their small victory with a nice dinner. Everyone was out, except for Henrik. He stuck to his mother day and night. "Henrik, are you sure you don't want to leave with Kol, Finn and Klaus?" Rhaenyra asked her youngest son. "Nope. I want to stay here with you. To keep you company and all" he replied with a smile.

His mother wondered why he was stuck to her hip, not that she minded but she figured he'd want to spend time with his siblings who he hadn't seen in over a thousand years. Henrik had seen glimpses of her life before the new world, before the Vikings. Her life in Westeros. "You can ask me" she said from the her spot by the stove. "What?" he asked confused at what she meant. "Your thoughts are loud" she replied as she turned to face him.

"Why don't you want to talk about you life in Westeros?" he asked. "It's a life I wish to forget. The only thing that ever mattered were my sons and daughters. Nothing else. Don't get me wrong I loved my siblings but, if it came down to my children or them. I would choose my children" she replied. "I did unspeakable things to protect my family. They were necessary. For the survival of my children. When I became queen people loved me, most loved me because they knew me. Others loved the power I held, with the crown or my own personal powers. Your brothers and sisters led our house to the greatest dynasty the realm had ever seen. But we all had to sacrifice a lot to get where we ended. I lost everything. I want to move on. Focused on what I have now" she turned around and continue her cooking. Henrik was curious but decided to let it go. For now.

Rhaenyra had an uneasy feeling. Something was coming or happening. She didn't know what though. "Henrik?" she called to him. "Yes, mother?" he answered. "Call your siblings. Tell them to come home immediately" he nodded and did as he was told. As she turned she felt a pang in her chest. Something happened to one of children, she felt it. Then, she saw it. Finn was dead. Henrik was still in shock of what Klaus had just told him when he heard his mother scream. It was loud and full of pain.

The pain he too felt, for the loss of his brother. Rhaenyra felt numb yet she felt the pain, heartache for the loss of her child. Then, she remembered. "What good is power if you cannot protect the ones you love". Henrik walked in and saw his mother barely holding it together. He ran to hug his mother to comfort her. If it hurt him, he couldn't even began to fathom what it must feel like for her. Her son. Henrik held his mother until his siblings arrived. When they walked in they saw their mother on Henrik's arms crying and screaming for the loss of her son.

"Mother" Rebekah called out for her but Rhaenyra couldn't look at them. She felt like she would break. But the tears didn't stop. They couldn't.

Rhaenyra had just gotten her children back. After a few minutes, which felt like hours Rhaenyra finally spoke. "What happened?" she asked with a broken tone. "The Salvatore and their friends. They-th they had the white oak" Elijah replied with a sad tone. He could barely keep it together. "Surely they know that if they kill an original their entire sire-line dies with them" she stated although it sounded more like a question.

"I only have fear" she whispered. "Mother, what are you planning?" Rebekah asked. "Vengeance" she replied. "They killed my son" her voice breaking. "I know what I am. What I've done. I know what you've done. But, Finn, he's my son. My son! And they killed him. They took him from like Esther took you away from me" she replied.

"He was good. You all were. You were supposed to grow old with the one you loved, have children of your own, build your own family" they all gave her looks of pity. "When I married your fathers, both of them. I thought I could start over. I know the things I've done turned me into a monster. But, you were good. You were nothing like me. I thought if I could make some so good, so pure, so perfect, maybe, just maybe I wouldn't be a monster. My son!" this time she yelled and felt to her knees. Her powers exploded pushing everyone away, and shaking the town.

Weirdly enough, Dean was the first one up. "Mom" Dean walked over to her and knelt right next to her. A tear fell down his cheek.

He caressed her cheek, wiping the tears away before engulfing her in a hug as she cried.

"I swear I'll kill them. I'm going to kill them all" she swore between sobs. Everyone found comfort with each other. They siblings held each other close. For the first time they were all together and now, someone was taken away from their family. Klaus cried the most as well. He had kept Finn in a box for nine centuries. For the first time the older brother and youngest got to hangout and they enjoyed each other's company. Klaus and Finn had both hoped to be close as they once were even as children, yet, Finn was now gone, dead. She stood up and walk away.

When they tried to chase her, she was already gone. She walked to the Salvatore house. Where, surprisingly the Scooby gang was celebrating their victory. They had yet to notice her presence. She watched them as they drank and made toasts about the death of her son Finn. Finally she walked in. Caroline spotted her first. Rhaenyra's eyes were red and puffy from all the crying. Caroline let out a gasp making them all turned to what had scared her.

They saw the look on her face said it all. Rhaenyra Targaryen was out for blood. Especially theirs.

"Celebrating I see" she walked right in and grabbed the glass from Caroline. She took a sip and stare them all.

"I felt him die" she started. "I felt my sons life vanish before my eyes" everyone looked down. "As I got here I pondered on how to kill you. At first I said why not now? Finish it now. But, I decided to wait. I'm gonna start with the town first." she eyed Bonnie, Caroline, and Tyler. "Then, those you love" Elena looked at her in shock. "Why the town?" the doppelgänger asked. "It's your home. Where you grew up. By the time I'm finished they'll be very few people left alive. Those who are left will know who's fault it was. But before I slaughter them all, they'll know who to blame when the sky falls down upon them" she replied with an angry tone and her facial expression showed her anger and thirst for revenge.

"I didn't want to inflict fear. But it doesn't matter now, all I have is fear" she gave them a look waiting for them to reply or argue.

"All right then. Let it be fear" and with that she walked away.
