HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- MEDICAL INFIRMARY
The next day, after receiving a phone call from Theseus about her grandfather's, Dimitris, health condition, Christy is with the Majordomo Theseus.
{Christy Outfit}
"How is he?" Christy asked Theseus as their outside of the medical infirmary.
"It is a mild heart attack. He was taking a stroll with your grandmother when it happened." Theseus told her.
Christy becomes worried.
"Nurse Giannis has sedated him. He's gonna be asleep for a while. Your grandmother, Celia, is with him at his bedside." Theseus said.
"Milady Christiana?" Nurse Giannis asked.
Theseus and Christy looks at Nurse Giannis.
"Giannis? Can I see him?" Christy asked.
"Of course." Nurse Giannis said.
Christy slowly walks inside the medical infirmary and sees her grandfather, Dimitris, laying in bed with a nasal tube in his nose with a holographic computer monitoring his vitals.
"Grandma?" Christy said to her grandmother, Celia.
The Elder Goddess, Celia, looks at her granddaughter. "Christiana."
Christy slowly walks up to her grandfather and gently holds his hand in hers.
"He's gonna be alright, Christiana." Celia reassured her granddaughter. "You cannot let your grandfather's health condition deter your focus from completing your task."
"I know, Grandma." Christy said.
Celia and Christy gently holds each other's hands for a short moment and gently pulls away.
Christy pecks a kiss on her grandfather, Dimitris, forehead and walks away, walking out of the medical infirmary.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND
Later that day, Christy slowly walks through a portal inside the courtyard and it closes behind her.
Wearing her sunglasses, Christy looks at Klaus, Elijah, Ana, Zenith, Thalia, Max and Gia.
"We heard about your grandfather." Gia said to her best friend with a glum expression on her face.
"Klaus told us." Zenith said.
"Hope you didn't mind." Klaus said.
"It's okay." Christy said. She slowly walks over to the sofa chair and sits down, gently takes off her sunglasses. "When I was a little kid, my grandpa and I would take a stroll together in the gardens. I made him a pasta necklace for good luck."
"We know how much you love your grandfather." Ana said.
"Maybe, we should postpone the task my Mom asked us to do." Christy suggested.
"You can't." Klaus said, and slowly walks up to her and sits down on the coffee table in front of her. "You can't let this deter you."
"I don't know what to do, Klaus." Christy said with a glum expression.
"The task that your mother asked you to do. Do it your grandfather. Do it for him." Klaus said.
Klaus and Christy exchange looks at each other.
⚜️⚜️
Minutes later, Christy had gotten her backpack and she parchment map.
"You have everything?" Klaus asked.
"Yeah, I do." Christy said. "I would ask you to come along, but you and Elijah have your hands full with Eric and Nora."
"Ana is gonna help us with that." Klaus said.
"Alright." Christy said, wearing her backpack on her shoulder.
Klaus and Christy shares a kiss and she walks away.
"Christy?" Klaus said.
Christy stopped walking and turns around to look at her husband.
"Be careful." Klaus said.
"I always am." Christy said.
Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other and she walks away, walking out of the compound.

IN THE SKY . . .
That afternoon, in Christy's starship, which is on autopilot, Christy and Gia sits in the cockpit and with Zenith, Thalia and Max in their seats buckled.
{Christy Outfit}
"To get this straight, this isn't a Warrior Team Squad mission, this is something that your mother asked you to do?" Gia said.
"Yeah." Christy said. "Did you guys bring along some snacks?"
"I did." Gia said. "How about you?"
"I brought some granola bars and other things that Hagarth has in his pantry." Christy replied.
"Hagarth has a lot of food, huh?" Gia said.
"Yeah, he does." Christy said. "He has food rations in his pantry. And plus, he restocks his pantry whenever he gets low on things. I should know because I help restock."
Christy and Gia exchange chuckles with each other.
"I'm glad you're feeling a little better." Gia pointed out.
"Yeah, me too, G." Christy said. "My grandpa is strong and he'll get through this with help from my grandma and from the other Elders."
Christy and Gia exchange small smiles at each other.
"I think we're here, Christy." Gia said, looking out of the cockpit window and to get a closer look. "Yeah, we've arrived at the Isle Lavarath."
"Alright, everyone, let's get ready." Christy said.
And Christy's starship gently lands on the beach shore.

- Third POV -
Later that afternoon, at the LAFAYETTE CEMETERY, Vincent walks out of a crypt. Nora slowly walks inside the cemetery.
"Hello, Vincent Griffith." Nora greeted him.
"Do I know you?" Vincent asked.
"I remember you from the fake party at the Mikaelson Compound." Nora said to him. "I need your assistance with something."
"Whatever it is, I'm not interested." Vincent said and tries to walk away.
But Nora steps in front Vincent with a malicious expression on her face. "I insist. It won't take long."
Vincent and Nora exchange looks at each other.

THE NORTHMAN RESIDENCE ESTATE
Vincent and Nora takes the elevator upstairs to the main room and they slowly walks inside.
Vincent looks at the dead body of the Ninth Ward Versailles witches.
"They failed." Nora said, gesturing to the dead witches.
"So, what is it that you're asking of me?" Vincent asked.
"We want to activate this enchanted moonstone." Eric said, showing him the moonstone.
"What if I say "No"? Vincent asked.
"Then, you will join the dead witches." Nora said, bluntly. "Or we can visit The Caldron."
Vincent sighs to himself. "Alright." And sits down at a desk, and prepares to activate the enchanted moonstone.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND
Ivy walks inside, looking around for someone.
"Hello? Is anyone here?" Ivy asked.
Ana vamp-sped into the courtyard. "Ivy? What's up?"
"Where is Christy?" Ivy asked.
"She's away on a small task, but she'll be back." Ana said. "What's going on?"
"It's Vincent. He's gone." Ivy tells her.
"What's going on?" Klaus asked as he and Elijah slowly walks down the stairs and into the courtyard.
"It's Vincent. He's gone. They took him." Ivy tells them.
"Who took Vincent?" Ana asked.
"A woman, a vampire, with an English accent, I think." Ivy tells her.
"Nora." Elijah said.
"Did she say why she needed him?" Klaus asked.
"No, but she mentioned the party that took place here. And there have been some witches gone missing from the Ninth Ward as well." Ivy tells them.
Klaus, Elijah and Ana exchange looks at each other.
"Eric and Nora needs Vincent to activate the enchanted moonstone. The one from Christy's premonition." Ana said.
"But knowing Vincent, he won't." Elijah said.
"So, Eric and Nora threaten him with death." Klaus said and looks at Ivy. "Can you do a locator spell to locate Vincent? If we find Vincent, then, we'll find Eric's and Nora's location?"
"I can." Ivy said.
Shortly after . . .
In the courtyard, Ivy sits at a table with a map and gently pours some black sand on the map.
Ivy then, chants the incantation of the locator spell using Vincent's necklace as a connection.
The black sand forms around a residential estate where Vincent is.
"I've located Vincent. He's in a residential estate a few minutes away from the Davila Estate." said Ivy.
"Alright, then." Ana said. "Thanks, Ivy."
And Klaus, Elijah and Ana walks away.

THE REMOTE ISLAND OF ISLE LAVARATH
Later that late afternoon, after receiving three herbal flowers, one of blue daisies and one of sunflowers, Christy, Gia, Zenith, Thalia, and Max slowly walks together.
"Gosh, it's cold out here." Thalia said.
"It's 56 degrees." Max said.
"Still, it's a bit cold." Thalia said and playful teases Christy. "Can we take a minute, Imperial Captain Christy?"
Christy chuckled softly to herself. "Sure."
Christy, Gia, Zenith, Thalia, and Max sits down on some flat stones beside a lake.
Christy takes out some granola bars from her backpack and hands it to Zenith, Thaila, Max and Gia.
"Thanks." Gia said.
Zenith takes out some protein squares and hands it to Thaila, Max, and Christy.
"Thanks, Honey." Thalia said to her husband, Zenith.
As they eat their snacks and drinks their bottles of water, Max looks at his childhood best friend, Christy.
"How are you holding up, Christy?" Max asked.
"In the back of my mind, I'm worried about my grandpa, but I know and my grandma knows that he's gonna be okay." Christy said.
"Your grandfather is a strong man." Zenith spoke.
"I know." Christy said.
"So, Imperial Captain Christy, where is our last destination?" Gia asked with a playful teasing smile.
Christy chuckled softly at her best friend's, Gia's, playful tease. She takes out the folded parchment map and unfolds it.
All three locations have been marked out with a red "X" on it. The last destination is a pyramid. It glows to let her know.
"Our last destination is a pyramid." Christy said. "We just have to find it."
"Alright, then, let's get going." Max said.
Christy, Zenith, Thalia, Max and Gia gets up and proceeds to walk together through the woods.
⚜️⚜️
Minutes after, Christy, Zenith, Thalia, Max and Gia, looking around for a pyramid.
"I don't see a pyramid anywhere." Zenith said.
"It must be covered by some trees or something." Thalia said.
"Or by vines." Gia said, stopped walking upon looking at the pyramid.
Christy, Zenith, Thalia, Max stopped walking and looks at the vine covered pyramid.
"Now what do we do?" Gia asked.
"I guess we slowly walks up to it." Christy said.
Now, outside of the pyramid, Christy, Zenith, Thalia, Max and Gia looks at it.
"I don't see a door." Max said.
Christy looks at a lion statue and there's a keyhole. "I think we need a key to unlock the hidden door."
"Did you bring along the spearhead?" Gia asked.
"Yeah." Christy said, unfastens her backpack and takes out the silver spearhead.
Now, with the silver spearhead, Christy inserts it into the lion statue's mouth keyhole.
A rumble of a door slides upwards.
"Okay, what's inside the pyramid that we need?" Thalia asked.
"Maybe, a mystical weapon or something?" Max guessed.
Christy looks at the parchment map and unfolds it. She looks at the picture of the pyramid and looks at a drawing of a hammer.
"I think it's a hammer." Christy said. Zenith, Thalia, Max and Gia looks at the drawing of the hammer. "Some kind of mystical hammer weapon."
"Alright then, I'm gonna go get it." Zenith said, taking off his backpack.
"You sure? We don't know what's in there. Could be some traps or something?" Thalia asked.
"I'm sure, and I'm prepared." Zenith said. "Stay here. I'll be right back."
Zenith vamp-sped up to the door and slowly walks inside.
Now, inside the pyramid, Zenith looks around at the torches on the wall and old skeletons of animals.
Zenith looks at the floating golden mystical hammer in the beam of light.
"Zenny? Are you alright?" Thalia asked from the doorway.
"I'm alright, Thal." Zenith reassures his wife and slowly walks down the aisle.
Zenith continues to slowly walk further down the aisle, but trips on something, causing him to fall on the floor.
He looks around on the floor, surrounded by snakes.
"Oh, shit." Zenith said. "Guys?!"
"Zenny?" Thalia said.
"There are snakes in here." Zenith said, slowly getting back up to his feet.
"Don't get bitten by the snakes." Christy warned him.
"I'll try not to, Christy." Zenith said.
Zenith looks around at the snakes as they slither around on the floor. He gently steps around them, hoping not to step on one.
Zenith reaches the beam of light where the golden mystical hammer is. He tries to take it, but the beam slightly burns his hand, causing him to grimace.
Zenith quickly grabs the golden mystical hammer with his right hand as the beam of light slightly burns his hand.
Now, wielding the golden mystical hammer in his hand, Zenith morphs into his big Raven form and flies away, flying out of the pyramid and back outside.
Zenith the Raven morphs back into himself and looks at Christy, Thalia, Max and Gia.
"Zenith? Are you alright?" Max asked.
"I'm fine." Zenith said. "My hand hurts a little, but I'm fine."
Christy looks at the parchment map again. The drawing of the pyramid red "X" marks itself.
"Alright, we're done. Let's get back to my starship and leave this isle." Christy said, refolding the parchment map and puts it back in her backpack.
Zenith puts the golden mystical hammer in his backpack.
And together, Christy, Zenith, Thalia, Max and Gia scurries away, heading back to Christy's starship.

- Third POV -
That night, at the Northman Estate, Vincent sits at a desk with four candle-lit candles at each end of the table, quietly chanting a spell with his eyes closed.
"What's taking so long?" Nora asked. "The moonstone should've been activated by now?"
Vincent opens his eyes and stops quietly chanting the spell. "I am still trying to activate your moonstone. And that requires focus. So, please, don't rush me."
And then, Eric vamp-sped over to Vincent with a knife to his throat.
"Or maybe, you need some motivation to pick up the pace." Eric said.
"Why do you want the moonstone anyway? Why is it so important to you?" Vincent asked.
"What we want with the moonstone is none of your concern." Eric said.
"So, stop asking questions, and get back to working on activating the moonstone." Nora tells him.
Eric removes the knife from Vincent's throat and walks away.
Suddenly, the double doors opens, Ana uses her magic to knock out some True blood vampires.
Klaus and Elijah vamp-sped up to Eric and Nora, and snaps their necks, knocking out both the Northman duo.
"Vincent? We need to leave right now." Ana said.
Vincent gets up, taking the moonstone with him and walks away with Klaus, Elijah and Ana.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND
After returning back home, Klaus, Elijah, Ana and Vincent, the four of them are in the ballroom.
"Thanks for rescuing me." Vincent said.
"You're welcome." Ana said.
"Did you activate the enchanted moonstone?" Klaus asked him.
"No, I didn't." Vincent told them. "I was just pretending to do so."
"So, we are supposed to believe you?" Klaus asked.
"Back off, Klaus." Christy said, slowly walks inside the ballroom. "Vincent didn't have much of a choice."
"Christy." Vincent said.
"Hey, Vince. Ivy told me everything." Christy said and looks at the moonstone. "That's the moonstone that I saw in my premonition."
"You had a premonition about the moonstone?" Vincent asked.
"Yeah, I did." Christy said to him. "And I think I might know why Eric and Nora want to activate the moonstone?"
Klaus, Christy, Elijah, Ana and Vincent exchange looks at each other.
