chapter four
- Third POV -
At the St. James Infirmary, after killing a few vampires with her dark magic, Indau The Hollow looks around at the dessicated dead bodies with a malicious smile on her face.
Klaus and Marcel enters the jazz club safehouse, in which, Indau sly grins to herself.
"I was wondering if you were going to find me sooner rather than later." Indau told them.
"We know that the Underworld Elder God Marcalos resurrected you." Marcel said.
Indau turns around to look at both Klaus and Marcel. "And I assume that you are expecting me to burst into flames and return back to the Marcalos's Underworld Palace. Well, I hate to disappoint, but I'm not gonna return back to Marcalos's Underworld Palace. Not yet anyway."
"How is it there in Marcalos's Underworld Palace? Is it warm there?" Klaus taunted Indau.
"You would know, wouldn't you, Klaus? After all, Marcalos still prefers you as his favorite immortal soul. His favorite immortal soul to torture for all eternity." Indau said.
"Marcalos or his Underworld Palace doesn't frighten me." Klaus said. "And yes, I've been to his flamy Underworld Palace. It will always be the same."
"When you went to the Marcalos's Underworld, how did it feel?" Indau asked Klaus, taunting him. "Did your skin burn? Did you shout in agonizing pain, wanting it to stop?"
Klaus looks at Indau, not letting her get to him. "Perhaps, when you return back to the Underworld Palace, you'll see how it is."
Indau just smirks and thrusts her magic at both Klaus and Marcel, causing them both to fly backwards and falls on the floor.
And Indau walks away, exiting the jazz club safehouse.
shortly after...
Klaus and Marcel lays on the floor, a few inches from each other. They both stir awake and sits up straight.
Marcel looks around. "Indau's gone. We have no idea where she went off to."
"That why it is good to seek locator spells." Klaus said, slowly getting up to his feet.
Marcel slowly gets back to his feet and looks at Klaus.
Klaus looks a bit confused. "What?"
"About what Indau said, about you being Marcalos's favorite soul, you never talk about it." Marcel said.
"No, I don't." Klaus said. "Who doesn't want to talk about the Underworld Palace, to most people, it's a nightmare."
"But not you." Marcel said.
"Why are we talking about this, Marcellus?" Klaus asked, becoming a bit annoyed.
"Alright, I'll leave it alone." Marcel said.
"Thank you." Klaus said and walks away.
And Marcel walks after him.

[Christy Outfit]
Christy small waves at them. Anouck small waves with one hand and continues rowing around a few feet away from the pier.
Na'vi tribe Queen Snugì slowly walks up next to Christy.
Christy glances up at her. "Queen Snugì."
"Hello, Christiana." Queen Snugì greeted her.
"Anouck and Ràmona are enjoying each other's company on his surfboard." Christy said. "They're both wearing lifejackets."
"And Anouck has keep his short distance nearby the beachside." Na'vi Queen Snugì said.
Christy's wrist comm buzzes in her pants pocket. She takes out her wrist comm and looks at it.
It's Theseus.
Christy answers her wrist comm. "Theseus?"
"Lady Christiana? You have visitors awaiting you at the chateau." Theseus tells her.
"Okay, I'm on my way." Christy said, and hangs up her phone. She gets back to her feet and looks at Queen Snugì and bows at her. "I gotta go."
"Your visit is always appreciated, Christiana." Queen Snugì said.
Christy and Na'vi Queen Snugì exchange small smiles at each other and Christy walks away.

HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- THE FRENCH CHATEAU
Later that afternoon, after Christy arrived at the chateau in a town car, she gets out of the backseat car door and slowly walks up the five steps.
Frances Rose gently opens the grand door upon greeting Christy.
"Good afternoon, Lady Christiana." Frances Rose greeted with a small smile.
"Hi, Frances." Christy greeted her back with a small smile, slowly walks into the grand foyer.
Frances Rose gently closes the door and walks away.
Christy slowly walks into the main living room where Luna and Trinity, Nikole, Damien and Irene, Gia and Marion are watching a cartoon comedy movie on the TV, nibbling on some buttered popcorn, sitting on the U-shaped sofa.
"You guys are having fun." Christy said.
Luna and Trinity both looks at their mother and smiles.
"Hey, Mom." Luna said.
"We told Theseus we were here." Gia said.
"He told me on my wrist comm." Christy said, slowly walks into the main living room. "Gia? Can we talk?"
"Sure." Gia said, getting up and walks away.
Christy and Gia slowly walks into the grand foyer and looks at each other.
"Do you have anything to protect yourself with?" Christy asked.
"Yeah, Maxy gave me a pistol and I also have my baseball bat too." Gia said.
"You have a baseball bat?" Christy asked with a surprise.
"Yeah. And also, Max trained me in his basic combat skills too." Gia said.
"Oh, okay." Christy said. "It's pretty awesome that Max has taught you some things about combat training."
"Yeah, it is." Gia said.
"Okay." Christy said.
Ten-year old Marion slowly walks up to the doorframe. "Mom? Auntie Christy? You're missing the cartoon movie."
"We're coming, Mar." Gia said to her daughter.
Christy and Gia walks up to Marion. And they walks back into the main living room, sits down on the U-shaped sofa and continues watching the cartoon movie.
⚜️⚜️
Minutes after, the kids went upstairs in the arcade game room. Christy and Gia stayed downstairs in the main living room, sitting next to each other on the U-shaped sofa.
"This is a big manor." Gia said.
"Yeah, it is." Christy said.
"What is it like, being the Orasanian Legend? I mean, it's pretty cool and awesome?" Gia asked.
"Well, to me, I don't make a big deal out of it, whereas everyone else here does. I keep my legendary reputation on a low- profile here." Christy said. "As you already know, I don't like any special attention or special treatment."
"I get it." Gia said. "Max is the same way. He's a legendary famer and a member of the Orasanian Elite Team Task Force. But he wants Marion to be her own person."
"Exactly." Christy agreed. "That's what I told Luna and Trinity. I want them to be their own persons, and not with the demigods and demigoddess to talk about them as the daughters of The Greatest Orasanian Warrior Heroine." She added.
"When you fought in those intense battles, sword fighting with the enemies, were you scared?" Gia asked.
"Not really." Christy said. "When I fought in those intense battles, I was focused and because I had the other Orasanian Warriors -- men and women, plus, Zenith, Thalia and Max, with me. They had my back, and I have theirs. We Orasanian Warriors trust each other and we will fight together against an enemy."
"You really wanted to become an Orasanian warrior, didn't you?" Gia asked.
"I did." Christy said. "When I was a little kid, that's what I wanted to be. Like my mother and father, my aunt and uncle before me, they have fought in intense battles before I was born. And growing up, I would visit the outdoor training courtyard and observe the Orasanian Warriors spar with each other from the parapet wall. My parents know that I wanted to be more, and now, that I am, I'm grateful for it."
"Well, you deserve your legendary reputation, Christy. And no one can take that away from you." Gia said.
"Nope." Christy said.
Gia and Christy exchange small smiles at each other. Suddenly, Christy receives a premonition, upon closing her eyes, causing her to hold her head with her hand.
"Christy?" Gia said, becoming worried.
Christy's Premonition
At the LAFORGE House, a wounded Elijah, who has a wooden stake with poisonous rose-thorns embedded in his lower back, is laying inside a boundary salt boundary spell. And Indau The Hollow is chanting a dark spell to kill him.
Reality
After Christy receives a premonition about her brother-in-law, Elijah's, fate at the hands of Indau, she becomes worried.
"Christy? What is it? What did you see?" Gia asked.
"Elijah is gonna be in trouble with Indau." Christy told her best friend, Gia.
Gia and Christy exchange worried looks at each other.
Christy takes her phone out and dials her husband's, Klaus's, phone. He answers his phone.
"Christy?" Klaus said.
"Where's Elijah?" Christy asked.
"He's with me and Rebekah in the ballroom." Klaus tells her. "Why? What's wrong?"
"He's in trouble with Indau." Christy told her husband in a worried voice tone.
"You had a premonition, did you?" Klaus said, upon realization.
"Yeah, I'll explain when I get back to New Orleans." Christy tells him and hangs up her phone.
Gia and Christy exchange looks at each other.
"Gia? I'm gonna need you to stay here with the kids. Zenith, Thalia and Max will be here after their work."
Gia nodded in understanding. "Okay."
