- Third POV -

The next day, after arriving back in New Orleans, Elijah and Rebekah caught Klaus up on everything that has happened while he was away at Mount Orasani.

So, now, in the study, Klaus and Elijah are sitting on their sofa across from each other.

"How is Christy?" Elijah asked about his sister-in-law.

"She's in trouble again with Quinn. She gave up her Chief Advisor position and the second she did so, Quinn took it." Klaus told his brother.

"So, Christy willingly gave up her Chief Advisor position and lost everything that is associated with her Chief Advisor position?" Elijah said.

Klaus nodded.

Elijah small smiles. "Christy is the selfless one in the Mikaelsons family."

"She's the female version of you." Klaus teased him. "She's Elijah Mikaelson 2.0."

Klaus and Elijah exchange lightly chuckles with each other.

Marcel slowly walks into the study and looks at the Mikaelson brothers.

"What is it, Marcel?" Elijah asked.

"We have a mythological situation." Marcel said.

Klaus and Elijah exchange looks at each other.

LAFAYETTE CEMETERY

Klaus, Elijah and Marcel said looking at some walls with skull graffiti.

"What's with these skull graffitis?" Klaus asked. "It looks supernatural."

"It's not." Marcel tells him. "These skull graffiti were done over night."

"Do we know who or what did this?" Elijah asked.

"Marcel? You said this situation is mythological." Klaus mentioned.

"Yeah, it is. But you're not gonna like it." Marcel said.

OLD DAVILA ESTATE

Later that day, Klaus, Elijah, Marcel and Ana looks at the old boarded up Davila Estate which is covered with skull graffiti.

"I can feel the dark energy from this place." Ana said. "Who or what is in there?"

"A lich." Marcel said.

"A what?" Klaus asked, confused.

"A Lich. An undead skeleton creature." Marcel told.

"What do the undead skeleton creatures want?" Ana asked.

"I don't know yet." Marcel replied.

"But we soon will." Klaus said.

"And we'll destroy them." Elijah said.

HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- THE FRENCH CHATEAU

In the main living room, Christy sits on the U-shaped sofa, reading a book on her Kindle that her husband, Klaus, gave to her as a gift long ago.

[Christy Outfit]

Christy's phone buzzes on the seat next to her. She gently picks her phone and looks at it.

It's Stella Patel.

Christy answers her phone. "Hey, Stella."

"Hello, Christiana. I need to ask you something. Can you meet me at the Gazette Newspaper?" Stella asked on the phone.

"Yeah, sure." Christy replied, and hangs up her phone.

Christy bookmarks her book on Kindle and turns it off, puts it in her backpack and gets up walking away.

⚜️⚜️

THE GAZETTE NEWSPAPER

Christy sits in front of Stella's desk. Stella sits behind her desk.

"The reason I contacted you is because I don't have any articles to write about, and so, I was pondering that you and I could work together." Stella said.

"Okay, how?" Christy asked, gently folds her arms.

"Well, you're a sorceress with magic and I was thinking you could perform a magic show at the speakeasy. I take some pictures with my camera, you astonish the audience with your magic." Stella said. "What do you say?"

Christy thinks about it and small smiles. "Okay."

Stella small smiles at her. "Alright, then. Does $500 cash sound good?"

"It does." Christy said.

"Okay." Stella said.

Stella and Christy gets up and does a gentle handshake and withdraws from it.

"By the way, I'm really sorry about what you're going through. With this conflict that Quinn has against you, you don't deserve this."

"Quinn is just being herself." Christy said.

"Alright." Stella said.

And Christy walks away.

- Third POV -

That afternoon, back in the FRENCH QUARTER, in the study, Klaus, Elijah, Marcel and Ana has figured out that a dark faerie woman named Vera, has created her skeleton creature Lich to do her bidding.

"So, Vera is using the old Davila Estate for her own place." Ana said. "She practices blood rituals and dark magic."

"So, how the hell are we gonna defeat a dark faerie that practices dark magic and can create some undead skeleton creature Lich?" Marcel asked.

"We need a plan, a strategy." Elijah said. "As of right now, we do not know what Vera is capable of, nor do we know how strong she is."

"Elijah's right." Klaus agreed. "We need to end Vera before she ends us."

HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- SPEAKEASY

In the dimly-lit cabaret, the speakeasy-goers sits at their tables.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome, The Extraordinary Christiana." The announcer woman said.

Everyone applauds and ceases their applauding as the stage dims and the curtains opens, revealing Christy on stage with a spotlight on her.

[Christy Magician Outfit]

Stella Patel takes a picture of her with her camera from her table.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you're in for a special magical treat. So, enjoy." Christy said.

Soothing music plays. Christy gently takes off her hat and flashes her eyes blue, using her sorceress magic. She gently waves her hand over her hat.

A baby liger pops out from her hat, astonishing the crowd and "aww".

Christy gently sets down the baby liger on the stage and uses her sorceress magic to conjure up an hula hoop gently holding it out beside her.

The baby liger scurries towards the hula hoop and leaps through it and gently lands on the stage. Christy makes the hula hoop disappear in golden dust.

Stella takes some more pictures of Christy's magic show.

As the soothing music continuing play, Christy gently puts her hat back on her head and uses her magic to conjure up a mannequin woman. She flashes her eyes blue and the mannequin woman comes to life, astonishing the crowd.

Christy and the mannequin woman tap dance together, astonishing the same even more.

Christy and the mannequin woman stops their tap dance and faces each other and curtsy. And the mannequin woman goes back to normal.

Christy finishes her magic show with a tip of her hand with a smile and the soothing music stops.

Everyone gets up and applauds. Christy gently holds the baby liger in her arms.

In the crowd, former Pevanshire Princess Quinn becomes annoyed and envious.

HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- HAGARTH'S TAVERN

Later that evening, Stella and Christy sits across from each other in a table booth.

[Christy Outfit]

Teif brings them both their drinks of iced sweet tea and a bread basket buttered garlic bread rolls and gently sets them down on the table.

"Thanks, Teif." Christy said.

Teif nodded with a smile and walks away with her platter.

"Your magic show was amazing, Christiana. I'll publish the newspaper article." Stella said, taking a sip of her iced sweet tea through a straw.

"Okay." Christy said with a small smile and takes a sip of her iced sweet tea through a straw.

Stella gently takes out an folded envelope and gently hands it to Christy. "$500 in the envelope."

"Thanks, Stella." Christy said, and puts the folded envelope in her backpack.

"By the way, what happened to the baby liger?" Stella asked, taking a bite of her bread roll.

"I returned it back to its mother at the menagerie." Christy said.

"You already know this Christiana, but you're pretty cool." Stella said.

"Yeah, I am." Christy said, taking a bite of her own bread roll.

Stella Patel and Christy exchange small smiles at each other and continues sipping on their iced sweet teas and nibbling on their bread rolls.

MIKAELSON
COMPOUND

Later that night, Christy golden dusted teleported into Klaus's and hers room. She then, looks at two canvas paintings.

The first canvas painting is herself dressed up in her yellow-red funeral robe.

And the second canvas painting of herself wearing her burgundy gown with her hair in a half-up, half down hairstyle with a small smile.

Christy then, hears footsteps and she quickly ducks behind her room divider.

Klaus walks into the room and slowly walks over to his drinking table and is about to pour himself a bourbon, but he senses he's not alone and gently sets down the decanter of bourbon.

"Whoever who you are, I'm not in a mood for hide and seek." Klaus said and slowly walks to the middle of the room.

Suddenly, Christy stealthy sneaks up behind Klaus and gently leaps on his back, causing him to react by laying down on the bed.

Klaus and Christy exchange looks at each other.

"Chris?" Klaus said, bewildered.

Christy laughs, playfully. "Hey, Honey."

"Bloody hell." Klaus said and gently sits up on the bed. "What the hell were you thinking?"

"I got you, didn't I?" Christy asked.

"A little." Klaus replied.

Klaus and Christy exchange chuckles with each other. She gently sits up straight and gently puts her hand on his chest where his heart is beating rapidly, but slowly.

"Your heart is beating." Christy said with a playful smile.

Klaus chuckled softly. "It is because you unexpectedly stealthy snuck up behind me and decided to give me quite the scare."

Klaus and Christy exchange chuckles with each other and she gently removes her hand from his chest.

"Okay, Mr. Klaus? What's been going on here?" Christy asked, sits on the bed in a cross-legged sitting position.

"Well, we have a mythology situation with a dark faerie woman named Vera upon us in the French Quarter." Klaus told her.

"What does Vera do?" Christy asked.

"What we know so far about Vera is that she has dark faerie magic and she can create these skeleton creature things called Lich. Also, she has put these skull graffiti around the French Quarter." Klaus tells her.

"Have you guys seen her?" Christy asked.

"We haven't encountered her yet. But Elijah and I are working on a plan or a strategy to defeat her." Klaus said. "What's been going on with you lately?"

"Well, nothing much. I helped Stella Patel with a magic show." Christy said.

Klaus light-heartedly chuckled. "A magic show?"

"What? I did great." Christy said.

"I believe you." Klaus said.

Klaus and Christy exchange small smiles at each other. She gently gets behind him and gently wraps her arms around his neck.

"I love you." Christy said.

"I love you too." Klaus said.

Christy pecks a kiss on his cheek. And Klaus pecks a kiss on her cheek.
