- Third POV -

The next morning at the MIKAELSON COMPOUND, in the lounge of the ballroom, Christy's dead body is wrapped up in a sheet with her dead body laying in a Mikaelson coffin.

A distraught Klaus is with her. He gently strokes her face with his hand.

Kol slowly walks inside. "Nik?"

Klaus turns around to look at his brother without saying nothing.

"Marcel called. After they burned their manor, Eric and Nora are on the road, but we catch them before they leave New Orleans." Kol tells him.

"Let's go then." Klaus said.

Klaus walks out of the chaise lounge room and closes the double doors and walks away with Kol.

ON THE ROAD . . .

The husband and wife duo, Eric and Nora Northman, drives in his explorer car. Eric sits in the driver's seat with Nora sits in the passenger seat.

"The Mikaelsons are coming for us, especially, Klaus." Nora said to her husband.

"I know that." Eric said.

Suddenly, Vincent is in the middle of the road. He uses his magic to flip over Eric's explorer car.

Vincent ceases his magic. Both Eric and Nora slowly crawls out of their car with scrape wounds and slowly gets up to her feet.

"Vincent Griffith." Nora said. "Have you come seeking revenge?"

"Christy was my best friend, so, yeah, I have, but I'm not the only person that you should be worried about." Vincent said.

Klaus then, bites Nora on her neck, giving her his hybrid bite. She collapses on the ground and Elijah snaps Eric's neck, knocking him out onto the ground.

Klaus, Elijah and Vincent exchange nods at each other.

ABANDONED TRAIN DEPOT

Later that day, Eric stirs awake and finds himself laying on a bench in a cell.

"Eric?" Nora said to her husband.

Eric looks at his wife, Nora. "Nora? Are you alright?"

"Not really." Nora said and shows him her hybrid bite on the left side of her neck. "And we both know that Klaus won't give me his blood to heal me because he wants vengeance."

"I killed his wife and now, he's killed you with his hybrid bite. He wants me to watch you die, to feel the same pain that he felt when his wife died." Eric said.

"Klaus isn't himself without his beloved wife, Christy, by his side." Nora said.

"I wouldn't be so concerned about me if I were you, Nora." Klaus said, gently leaning backwards against the wall across the cell with his arms folded.

"Have you come to gloat, Klaus?" Eric asked.

"As much as I would be pleased to watch your wife die, however, I have other things to do." Klaus said.

"You know, Klaus. You're a man that wants power and control, and will step over anyone that will get your way." Eric said, getting up and slowly walks up to the cell door. "It's a sad thing that Christy isn't here to see you crash and burn without her."

Klaus remains quiet, which Eric noticed.

"What? No sarcastic comeback? Christy will be disappointed in the kind of man that you really are." Eric said.

"My past doesn't matter to my wife anymore, and many people from my past have tried numerous times to turn Christy against me and puts wedges in my marriage. It worked, but we've gotten over it." Klaus tells Eric.

"How's your daughters? Do they even know their mother is dead? Or are you just waiting for Christy to come back so, your little family can be completed again?" Eric asked.

"Don't talk about my daughters." Klaus said.

"Or what? What are you gonna do, Klaus?" Eric asked him with a straight face. "You're nothing but a damaged broken man who can't even fix his own family, a man that would hurt, kill, manipulate, and threaten to get what he wants, who let his own precious wife, die?!"

"I'm not gonna listen to this nonsense." Klaus said and slowly walks away.

"Because you know deep down, that it's true." Eric said. "You would let your wife sacrifice and risk her immortal life for you and you would let her."

Klaus ponders to himself, remembering the 'you would let your wife sacrifice and risk her immortal life for you and you would let her.' part.

Klaus turns back around to look at Eric. "I've heard that before. The Underworld Elder God, Marcalos."

Klaus and Eric exchange looks at each other.

"The two of you are working with Marcalos, aren't you?" Klaus asked.

"Marcalos knows all about you, Klaus. You're still his favorite immortal soul to torture in his Underworld." Nora told him.

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

Marcel

Klaus slowly walks away and answers his phone. "Marcel? I'm not in the mood as of right now."

"Maybe, your mood will change once I tell you." Marcel said on the phone.

"Well, don't leave me in suspense. What is it?" Klaus asked.

"It's Christy. She just came back." Marcel tells him. "I'm at the compound."

Klaus becomes relieved. "I'm on my way." And he hangs up his phone and walks away.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

That afternoon, Klaus slowly walks in the courtyard, looking around.

{Christy Outfit}

"Marcel?" Klaus said.

"We're in the ballroom, Klaus." Christy said to her husband from the ballroom.

Klaus walks inside the ballroom and sees Marcel and Christy sitting on the couch.

"Christy?" Klaus said.

Christy gets up and walks over to Klaus and they embrace in a hug. They gently pulls away from the hug.

"What happened after you died?" Klaus asked.

"I was with Anubis." Christy said. "What happened after?"

"Eric and Nora have been dealt with." Marcel said. "They're away."

Christy sits back down on the couch.

"And as for Nora, she doesn't have much time." Klaus said.

"You bit her, didn't you?" Christy said.

"I did as for revenge against Eric for killing you." Klaus told Christy.

"Marcel? I'll see you around." Christy said.

"Alright. It's good to see you, Christy." Marcel said and walks away.

"Let me guess, you're gonna give me "the wife talk"? Klaus said, sitting in the armchair.

"Klaus? I get why you bit Nora." Christy said to him.

"You don't feel sorry for her, do you?" Klaus asked.

"No, I don't, after what her witches did to Kol." Christy said. "But the thing is, Klaus, it worries me that whenever something happens to me, you go off the rails and do something bad."

"You know, it's how I am, Love." Klaus said.

"I know." Christy said. "You're a grown man, Klaus. I will never change you. I've embraced that you have a dark-side and you like getting your hands dirty."

Klaus chuckled softly to himself. "I'd rather my hands be dirty, then, yours remain clean."

"I know." Christy said.

Klaus and Christy exchange looks at each other. She gets up and slowly walks over to him and gently runs her hand in his hair with him looking up at her.

"The Mikaelsons have done a lot of bad things, Klaus." Christy said.

"But not you." Klaus said.

"Yes, I have. I can feel it. My dark alter ego. But I have it suppressed." Christy said. "But back to what I was saying, the Mikaelsons have done damage to others. You could do better if you wanted."

Klaus and Christy exchange soft looks at each other. She pecks a kiss on his forehead and playfully bops his nose with her finger and she walks away.
