- Third POV -

The next day, at the MIKAELSON COMPOUND, in the study, Klaus sits at the desk with a lighter and the Solomon seal and snapdragon flowers.

He puts both flowers in a mortar pestle and lights them both with a lighter.

Rebekah slowly walks into the study and looks at what Klaus is up to.

"What are you up to?" Rebekah asked her brother.

"Experimenting." Klaus said.

"Did Christy teach you that?" Rebekah asked.

"I've seen her perform this small ritual with Solomon seal and snapdragon. But I intend to use this mythologically." Klaus said. "Luna and Trinity performed this, so, maybe, I do myself."

"Well, you can't say that Christy didn't teach you a little of anything, Nik." said Rebekah.

Klaus small smiles at her. "Precisely." He agreed. "Chris said that if the smoke is white, it's all good and clear, if the smoke is red, some sort of a magical hex, and if the smoke is black, we're in deep trouble."

Klaus and Rebekah exchange looks at each other and looks at the smoke, which is white.

"It's good and clear." Rebekah said.

"Actually, Mary Dumas showed Christy the small ritual and then, Christy showed it to our daughters." Klaus said.

"Christy is special in her own way, isn't she?" Rebekah said.

"She is." Klaus said. "Are you staying a little longer or are you leaving?"

"We need to find the humanoid winged demon creature, it's probably still around here." Rebekah said.

"The winged demonic creature is from Marcalos Underworld Palace." Klaus said.

"That demonic creature killed Christy's friend, Colette, and tried to pin it on you. So, we need to find this wicked evil creature before it kills someone else." Rebekah said.

Klaus's phone buzzes in his jacket pocket. He takes his phone out and looks at it.

Marcel

Klaus answers his phone. "Marcel?"

"My guys found the demonic creature. We have it in a cell." Marcel told him.

"Rebekah and I are on our way." Klaus said, and hangs up his phone. "Marcel has captured the creature."

ABANDONED TRAIN DEPOT

Later that day, Klaus, Rebekah and Marcel looks at the humanoid winged demonic creature named Stark.

Stark sits on the bench with his wings spread out with an evil expression on its face.

"He said his name was Stark and he hadn't spoken." Marcel said.

Klaus slowly walks up to the cell door. "Stark?"

Stark glares at Klaus and grins. "La pudor de l'Inframón et fa pudor". ( "The stench of the Underworld reeks of you." )

"Per què has vingut aquí?" ( "Why have you come here?" ) Klaus spoke in an ancient language.

Stark gets up and slowly walks up to the cell door, still glaring at Klaus. "Al meu rei de l'Inframón li encantaria que tornis al seu Inframón. Continues sent la seva ànima immortal preferida per torturar i cremar." ( "My Underworld King would love to have you return back to his Underworld. You remain his favorite immortal soul to torture and burn." )

"Do you speak English?" Klaus asked Stark.

"If I choose to." Stark told him, spoke in English and smells Klaus. "I can smell your fear."

"I'm not afraid of anything." Klaus said, trying to hide his inner fear.

But Stark can see right through him and chuckles. "You have much fear within you, Klaus Mikaelson. You're a big man with so much fear, anger and rage."

"Don't listen to him, Nik. He's just toying with you." Rebekah said.

"I know he is." Klaus said and walks away.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

That afternoon, Klaus sits on the sofa chair, video-chatting on his phone with Christy in the ballroom.

"How's your day going so far?" Christy asked on the video chat screen.

"It's going well so far." Klaus said.

"Klaus? What's wrong? I can tell something's bothering you." Christy asked her husband.

"I'm fine." Klaus said, trying to reassure her.

But Christy isn't quite convinced. "Klaus? This is me."

"It's this Stark humanoid." Klaus told her.

"Stark?" Christy said with a knowing look on her face.

Klaus notices the knowing look on her face. "You know of him?"

"Stark is psychotic. He can smell fear from anyone. And he's Marcalos's second-in-command. Marcalos chose him." Christy told her husband who Stark is.

"So, you're saying that Marcalos has an army of demon winged humanoid?" Klaus said, bewildered.

"Yeah." Christy replied. "Marcalos is the mythology Devil and Stark is his psychotic second-in-command, so, don't provoke Stark because he will provoke right back at you."

"Bloody hell." Klaus said.

"I remember you once said that you were the devil in disguise." Christy mentioned.

Klaus chuckled. "Yeah, I did. But Marcalos is truly the Devil. And anyone is foolish enough to make a deal with him."

"You'd be surprised by how desperate someone can be and be tricked into a deal with Marcalos. Once you make a desperate deal, there's no take backs." Christy said.

"Yeah, enough of Marcalos, how are things going there at Mount Orasani?" Klaus asked.

"Everything's going well. There have been some political meetings and other subjects." Christy said.

"Well, I hope everything goes well." Klaus said.

"Me too, I gotta go. Tell Luna and Trinity I love them." Christy said.

"I will." Klaus said.

"Love you." Christy said.

"Love you too, Little Enchantress." Klaus said.

And Christy hangs up her phone, ending the video chat.

HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- QUAD COURTYARD

That late afternoon, Christy rides her mi-tech car through the quad courtyard, glancing around at the Orasanian citizens, both men and women, conversing and exchanging laughter with each other.

Some are sitting on blankets and some are taking strolls.

{Christy Outfit}

Christy drives up next to a food stand where Serafine is sits. She gently parks her mi-tech car next to the food stand.

"Hey, Serafine." Christy greeted the head of the Orasanian Guardswomen.

"Hey, Christiana." Serafine greeted her back with a small smile, eating her takeout food with a fork.

Christy sits next to Serafine and glances at what she's eating. "Sesame noodles and meatballs?"

"They're really good." Serafine said.

"Yeah, they are." Christy said.

Serafine and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

"I'll have the same, please?" Christy asked the food stand man.

"I'll buy." Serafine said.

"You will?" Christy said.

Serafine shows Christy a $50 dollar euro in her hand with a small smile. "I will if you want."

"Alright, then." Christy said with a small smile.

Serafine hands the food stand man her $50 dollar euro. He gently takes it and makes the food.

And Christy takes a swig of her cup of lemonade through a straw.

afterwards . . .

Serafine and Christy are both eating their takeout of sesame noodles and meatballs with forks.

"I assume that the Orasanian Guardswomen are on guard duty." Christy said.

"Yeah." Serafine said.

Suddenly, a fire starts in a derelict complex, drawing attention from both Serafine and Christy.

"What was that?" Christy asked.

"Don't know, I'll go check it out." Serafine said, getting up.

"Be careful, Serafine." Christy said. "Take the mi-tech car."

"Will do." Serafine said and walks away, getting into the mi-tech car and drives away.

HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- MAIN LIVING ROOM

That evening, Christy sits on the U-shaped sofa, typing on her laptop. The laptop is on her lap.

"Finishing up your story?" Elder Goddess Nadia said, slowly walks into the living room with her arms folded.

"Yeah, I'm on the last chapter and I'm gonna get published." Christy said. She glances at her mother. "Did you need something?"

"I need you to accompany Theseus on visiting the Great Neighbors with a parchment scroll to each, explaining the alliance and friendship amendment." Elder Goddess Nadia informed her daughter. "With Theseus as the Majordomo and yourself as Chief Advisor, it is a task given to you both."

"Yes, ma'am." Christy said.

"And another thing, your Uncle Cyrus has spoken to me about your conversation that you both discussed in the study office." Elder Goddess Nadia mentioned.

"Yeah, he just wants me to be more input, like, speak my opinion, that's all." Christy said.

"And I need to remind you that you have power as the Chief Advisor as well, so, use it wisely." Elder Goddess Nadia said.

"You and Dad always taught me that whenever a person is given power, it can consume them and the power can go to your head." Christy said.

Elder Goddess Nadia small smiles. "You've been taught very well."

"I had many mentors in my life, and knowledge to go with it." Christy said.

Elder Goddess Nadia chuckles softly. "Get some rest, daughter. You depart in the morning."

"Yes, ma'am." Christy said. "Love you."

"As I love you too as well, Christiana." Elder Goddess Nadia said and walks away.
