Ben Hargreeves x fem! reader

Ben is alive in this story and is 1-2 years older than reader (or the same age), reader is 19-20 in this story. (Or you can choose whatever age you want) and this is not edited so there will be lots of mistakes.

Y/n's pov:

I plopped down on my bed as I sighed heavily. My mom just yelled at me and started an argument and now I'm grounded, she took my phone and ugh I just hate this. I grabbed my laptop and sat up against the wall side of my bed. I logged in my account and went on my messages. Since I can't use my phone I'm using my laptop to talk to Ben, my best friend.

"hey ben, got grounded again 🙄. I'm using my laptop to talk to you rn but can we hang out? like maybe go to Griddys?" I typed and sent the message.

A few minutes later I got a notification

"hey y/n! Sorry, I was talking to klaus but of course, I can pick you up in 10 minutes?" Ben replied

"okay, see you 😋" I closed my laptop and changed into some sweatpants and a t-shirt/hoodie. (or wtv you wanna wear)

I tried my hair and checked the time and went outside to see Ben in the driveway, waving. I walked up to the car and opened the door to the passengers seat.

"hey y/n, what's up?" Ben asked at he pulled out of the driveway and drove to Griddys.

"nothing, just stressed really," I put both of my legs up so my knees up to my head and I crossed my arms over them as I leaned closer to the window.

"oh okay" he replied.

I closed my eyes and took a quick minute nap until the silence got interrupted by ben, "we're here" ben told me. "mk" I mumbled and got out of the car as Ben did. Ben opened the door for me as I walked in before him.

Ben and I sat down at the chairs in the front. I sighed as I put my arm out and rested my head on my palm. Agnes walked up to us, "the usual?" She asked since Ben and I come here alot. "Yep" Ben replied while we both nodded our heads. Agnes walked away to get us our donuts and a drink.

"So, what exactly happened?" Ben asked me as I sighed and turned my head towards him and put it down in my arms.

"My mom started yelling at me because I'm lazy, always on my phone, laptop etc, and then she started this whole argument and I 'talked back' when I didn't even talk back! And then she took my phone away again!" I rolled my eyes and paused as I sat up and faced him. "Oh! And I even responded in a nice tone, I didn't even raise my voice! Ughhh" I groaned as I ran my hands through my hair.

Agnes put our food in front of us and we thanked her.

"Damn y/n, you need to move out or something, you're an adult now, you can choose whatever you want." Ben mentioned to me.

"hm whatever" I said while chewing my donut.

(JELLY POWDERED DONUTS OMG 😍)

(Time skip)

After talking and eating, Ben and I were walking out of Griddy's to his car.

"can I move in with you guys?" I asked while looking at Ben.

"Of course, I'm sure the others will love for you to move in." Ben told me.

"okay" I chuckled as we both got in the car. (IDK TO LAUGH OR NOT IDK JUST SAY YOUR SENTENCES HOWEVER YOU WANT, IM AWKWARD)

I crossed my legs in my seat and and closed my eyes. "Can we go to my house really quick to pack my bags?" I opened my eyes and looked at Ben. "So soon? Sure, I'll text the others" Ben told me. "okay" I pulled out my phone and scrolled through tiktok. We arrived at my house and I took out my keys and opened the door. My mom was at work and my sister was at school so no one was home.

(sorry if you don't have a sister or siblings)

We went to my room and I plopped down on my bed, "did you ask the others yet?" I asked Ben, "yeah, they said you can move in" "yay!" I jumped off my bed and pulled out my suitcases and backpacks and played some music. Ben went through my drawers and put some clothes in a suitcase while I put my other clothes hanging up and other stuff in there.

I didn't need to tell my mom I'm moving out because I told her countless times that I'd move out one day and possibly stay with a friend or the hargreeves, until I could get enough money for my own house, maybe.

After we talked, danced, sang, and packed my stuff I took the back packs down as Ben held the suitcases. We put some of the stuff in the car and had to go back in for other stuff. I sighed as I dropped down on the ground as I panted heavily.

"that was so much work, I'm sweating so bad," I drank my water and put an ice pack behind my neck. "Eh not so much, you're just weak," he laughed. "hey! I am not weak!" I remarked. "Yeah whatever, get inside, we need to get back cuz it's getting late." Ben spoke. "Is it hot in the car?" I asked while looking at him, "no, it's cool, come on!" He responded. I sat up and sighed as I opened the door and sat in the car. "Oh my goodness! It's so nice in here," I said as I rested my head back on the headrest.

Ben stopped outside the academy and we got out of the car and we took some stuff in. I opened the gates for Ben and we got inside the house.

"Hey guys! We need some help here!" I yelled

Luther came down the stairs as he looked at us, "what's going on?" Luther asked us. "Y/n's moving in, you heard right?" Ben explained. "Ohh right, gotcha" Luther responded, "anyway, we got a bunch of stuff in the car, could you get it please?" I asked Luther.

Right after Luther went out of the Academy, the others soon came down.

"oh hey y/n!" Allison exclaimed and hugged me. "hey allison," I said. We pulled away and I whispered "I'm moving in!!" "Yay!!" We jumped.

I said hello to the others and they all helped getting the stuff from the car and helped me settle into my new room. We got all the stuff in there.

"Wow, I'm dead" Ben sighed.

(get it? OKAY SORRY)

"yeah, this was tiring" I lay down on my bed. "it's like 12 o'clock" Diego mentioned, leaning on the door frame. "12?" Vanya said, "mhm," Allison responded. "wow, well thanks you guys for helping me move in here," I told them all.

"no problem y/n" Diego said

"mhm, well I'm going, bye" five spoke as he teleported away.

After saying good night Ben stayed last. "Hey ben, can u set up my bed please, my pillows and blankets are in that thing," I asked pointed at the bag with my sleeping stuff in it.

"yeah" Ben took the stuff out as I rolled down to the floor and just lay there.

"there," Ben told me. "Thanks, I'm so tired omg" I sighed as I immediately fell down to my bed and got under the covers. I was that tired that I immediately started snoring in a deep sleep.

"well, goodnight night y/n" Ben whispered as he walked up to my sleeping form and moved my hair out of my face to kiss my forehead.

(I AM SO TIRED SO I JUST DECIDED TO FINISH IT HERE, I CAN TRY TI MAKE MORE PARTS LATER, BUT I HOPED YOU ALL LIKED ITTT <33)

Tone-Deaf - 2019 Explanation/Review!

So, I’m going to make a series where I review movies that I watched to learn more about different concepts. This one was just, irritiating more than a slow movie.

(There can be grammar mistakes, since I am writing this from an old keyboard, very old, mind you, but it still works thanks to me.)

Warnings: Dead humans, Spoilers, suicide, sexual themes, a karen main character, and a onesie wearing killer who hates the younger generation, and older generation, stalking, mentions of gore, drug use.

Explanation:

So, for short, our main character is a young woman that lost his father by suicide, she loves to play piano but she sucks, but people say nice things to her even if it sounds bad. On the other hand, we have our second main character Harvey, he lost his wife by suicide, and his wife played piano as well. Olive (our main character.) decides to broke up with her boyfriend, then her annoying boss fires her. All of these happens very quickly, and she finds herself talking about it to her best friend, Lenore, which she says that she should treat herself and rent a house, stay there, off the phone, off the men, and even without wanting to, Olive listens.

Harvey, stays with his very old house keeper, Agnes. She clearly cares for Harvey, and his son thinks that he has dementia. (Which sounds reasonable considering that he is very old but without medical knowledge, no one can be sure.) He totally hates millennials, and he founds himself lost after everything he had done in his life. He wants things to change, so he decides to kill people, saying that he done everything but never killed anybody. Olive being his target, Agnes becomes his target as well, and the killing spree starts when Olive comes to the house and give alot of money to Harvey. Olive, geniuenly hates it, hates the house, get’s scared by Agnes, doesn’t trust Harvey, house being too big to get lost on, everything is boring to her. She still uses her phone as to get dates again, but all of them are old man that Olive isn’t interested in, expect one person, so she chooses that.

Harvey, in a rage, ties Agnes down after talking about his true feelings a little bit, and Agnes tries to reason with him by talking to him, that doesn’t work on him, of course. Through out the film, you see both characters struggle. Olive trying to connect to her mother, by talking about piano’s and her father, while Harvey finds himself all alone after killing Agnes, (Stabbing her to be exact.) having constant nightmares about two gender natural humans, sometimes three, male babies appear, it’s all chaos and misery for him. Both of them shows their struggle by pushing people out, or trying to connect to other things, hating and sarcasm on top of non-stop explanation as to why they feel this way mostly giving not much information about it. After killing Agnes, Harvey decides to kill Olive too, but he fails at it, putting a spider in her contact lenses case, then mostly stalking her. He saves her by a local serial killer who kidnapped a girl, which was the date that she had choosen before. Thanks to him stalking her in a bar, he learned the guy is probably the killer, giving that he tried to drug her while Olive left for the bathroom. Harvey, of course, observes. After Olive leaves the guy at the bar, phone number exchanged, the guy walks out too. Harvey follows him. Second victim being the local killer, he founds the missing girl in the bathroom, eyes and mouth sewed, hands tied, so he kills her too out of mercy. The movie slowly goes to the end while Olive is heavly injured thanks to Harvey’s traps, he tries to explain to her that millennials suck, how his wife suicided, how she played the piano beautifully, while Olive gives the cold shoulder, still not wanting to die, in Harvey’s dead wife’s dress. He wants her to play the piano, which she does, and she plays so bad that Harvey screams her to stop, hitting the piano until it gets broken by him. Olive never heard of someone saying that she played the piano bad, expect on a asit trip where her father mentions how she plays the piano horribly. She roasts Harvey, taking her time until her mother comes to save her. Mother comes, shoots Harvey while he’s in is onesies, accidently shoots Olive, and the movie ends with her having fun on a grass where she’s hanging out with her mother. Oh, Harvey, by the way, has a son, that is gay, and you see him several times through out the movie, scaring Olive accidently or her mother. (This character becomes important later on.) Harvey, kills five people, there are kills that I didn’t mention for the sake of keeping this short.

Review:

You can’t connect with Olive at all, being that she’s a very cold character that mostly doesn’t care, either replies with sarcasm or something that probably would flip anyone out. She’s rude, she has short temper, she’s struggling, but you slowly end of the line accept her as she is, maybe the movie itself trying to push you into that idea, but mostly it let’s you choose which side you’re on. The actress (Amanda Crew) played her beautifully, showing how much of a character that can annoy, at the same time make you feel bad. Her best friend is that one best friend, who thinks that you are always low on sugar and try to coat it with, “Oh you need to drink/travel/do activities that you don’t want to do!” and that’s totally fine. You like the way she roasts time to time, but other than that, empty character with plot filling. Agnes, the house keeper. The movie doesn’t talk much about her, not giving much information as well as who she is, but the movie doesn’t give you any chance to connect to her, getting killed off by Harvey because she pushed his limits by her words. I’m shocked that she was killed off like she didn’t matter at all, aren’t you a house keeper? Shouldn’t you be important at all? What a loss. Olive’s mother is a very questionable character to me. She doesn’t empathy with her daughter at all, lying to her about liking her piano, and not giving a thing about anyones buisness. Didn’t thought that she would be important but she is. (What a suprise.) Untill the end, I didn’t think much of her, but after the ending I thought that Olive finally got the connection she wanted by her mother, a good ending if you can call that... Harvey, is our second main character, played by Robert Patrick. (Don’t look at me I see you there.) Harvey, struggles the same as Olive, but he approaches it diffrently- He doesn’t run away or find another thing to keep him on his feet like Olive did, but he chooses to kill people by his own choice. You don’t connect to him, but to me, I was at lost when I saw the ending, it was too weird, too of for me, but the whole time he was in a onesie, I couldn’t stop myself but chuckle. Sorry movie, I couldn’t take it that seriously when I saw Robert in a onesie going on a killing spree. He struggles because of his dead wife, he struggles because his son is gay, and he hates millennials because they don’t work hard for things like he did in his generation. He explains this alot through out the movie, I even lost some of my liquid while listening to him, I don’t understand generation seperation, sorry not sorry. When Harvey dies, a screen comes to his son who holds a man’s hand, his boyfriend I assumed, and they walk away with sad mourningfull faces. He doesn’t give much as the other characters didn’t, but he was a important character thanks to Harvey’s weird dreams. I couldn’t realise untill I saw that part, that, how Harvey only wanted a son that loved females, atleast the movie indicated that or my programing doesn’t function properly, or how he couldn’t bare a child like himself, after all, he hated millennials, and no one tried to help him other than Agnes. This movie got 4,0 from IMDB, which isn’t shocking to me. You cannot connect with characters, it has brutal kills so that’s a point, the plot is weird, horror parts were done beautifully, make up and clothing department is on the point, and cars. I don’t need to say more, just cars. My number would be the same as IMDB, it doesn’t need more or less. Snack movie to watch, so you can kill your time. Thanks for reading my messy review, I didn’t thought I would be doing a review... But here we are.

A Mini Meta: What’s In A Name? (1.5/?)

So Like, I do a bunch of research for my metas and in pursuit of this one, I’ve had to learn wayyyy too much about each character’s name and meanings/origins. But because there’s no real place for me to put them in my planned metas, and I still have all this information to info-dump, here it is! A master list of all the character’s >probable< meanings. Consider this a Mini-Meta.

Find Part 1 Here: (X)

Our Ineffable Duo

Aziraphale:

Note: Azrael, a possible interpretation of his name, means “one who God helps” and is often attributed to the Angel of Death.

Anthony J. Crowley:

The elephant in the room with Crowley is “Crawley” and all I’m going to say about it is that Crowley’s right, it’s too “crawling on the ground-y sounding”.

Anthony, on the other hand, means “of inestimable worth”, which I feel is a good balance to his deadname. Crowley deserves this and every ego boost. Someone give him a hug.

The name “Crowley”’s meaning is at most Gaelic for heroic, although from a demonic standpoint, there is also no one-for-one model. There is an Aleister Crowley but he’s a real person who is known as the “evilest man to ever live” or some such moniker. But there is no connection between the demon and the person. I’d even argue that by giving himself a “J” Crowley puts distance between himself and Aleister.

Note: Although Supernatural also sports a “Crowley” character, Good Omens predates the TV-Show and so no connection can honestly be made.

The Them

Adam Young:

Adam’s name has many significant implications beyond just sharing it with the first man and first person to leave Eden. However, I would be remiss if I didn’t tell ya’ll that in Akkadian, the word stems from the word “Adamu” which translates to “to make”. And I find this phenomenally relevant to his naming and unnaming powers.

Pippin “Pepper” Moonchild:

I have SOOOO much to say about the implications of nicknames, but for this mini-meta, I’ll just leave you with this: Pippin loosely means foreigner, and while that doesn’t really connect with her character much, neither does the name Pippin so I feel that works.

Pepper, however, simply means “berry”, but I think on a much more literal level the name “Pepper” refers to her firey and passionate sensibilities.

Brian I-Couldn’t-Find-A-Last-Name:

Brian loosely means “noble one” and given he’s ready to throw down against even his best friend if it meant saving the world and standing up to an all-powerful 11-year-old with immeasurable supernatural abilities with a crow-bar. I’d call that pretty noble.

Jeremy Wensleydale:

This name took an outrageous amount to time for me to research. I’m not touching Jeremy, because literally, no one calls him it, it has no power over him. Wensleydale, however, refers to a real place in England, apparently, they’re known for their cheeses. Here, “dale” refers to a town and “Wensley” is valley named after the god “Woden” AKA Odin, AKA Norse god of wisdom and culture and war. Which Idk how closely he’s related to Odin, I do think the wisdom and class resonate with Wensleydale’s character. Of all the Them, he’s the most bookish, and most overt with his love of books.

The Angels

Michael:

Literally means “Who is like God” in Hebrew, and is the only named Archangel in the Bible. I find it interesting that this name is meant to be a rhetorical question, meaning no one is like God. However, Heaven clearly has, let’s say, ignored this question and ruled as if they are God.

Gabriel:

God’s Messanger, whose name means “God is my strength”, which, I think he takes to an extreme. Yes, he clearly gets his power from his belief God has ordained a war he will win, but more than that, he also seems convinced that all of his >abusive< actions are blessed by God, despite the series making it very clear, she isn’t talking to anyone.

Uriel:

“God is My Light”. Like Gabriel, I find this name infinitely amusing because yes, Uriel has a fiery personality like Pepper, short-tempered, and ready for a fight, little they do is actually from the mouth of God. Uriel is also closely associated with Noah’s Ark, reportedly being the angel who warns Noah and his family of the impending flood. Although we can’t know if they did or did not question killing the kids like Crowley and Aziraphale did, as it wasn’t on screen, based on their other actions, I’m gonna say no.

Sandalphon:

Note: It’s interesting that his name is wholly dependent on the existence of “brothers” and implies he serves as a mirroring character...of whom idk yet.

Metatron:

Although MANY theologians have argued over the meaning of this name, the most popular definition means “beside the throne”, and refers to the person next to God’s Throne. This works well as he is shown to be the mediator between God’s word and the Angels. This is less good because he clearly hasn’t talked to, or isn’t willing to let others talk to God.

The Demons

Ligur:

So, Ligur is not a canonical demon. Consequently, his name has no set meaning. He’s not a “real” demon with a 1-for-1 equivalent floating through Hell. My best guess is that it’s a reference to a Chuthulu Mythological Race “Lloigor” which is known for being invisible, but when they do show themselves, are distinctly reptilic. Which, I think vibes well with the chameleon on top of his head.

Hastur:

Note: A strict etymological breakdown of the name is associated with “chaos” and is meant to denote one who revels in destruction for destruction’s sake. It’s also very fitting for Hastur, given his desire to cause fiery chaos. Like Metatron, there are many interpretations you can find here: (x).

Beelzebub:

Note: Beelzebub is a real demon with a fascinating mythos you can read more about here (x). Seriously, ya’ll I have a million citations, please hmu if you want more info.

Note 2: Also! Also! Also, Beezlebub makes an appearance in Lovecraftian stories and Chuthulu mythos.

Dagon:

Note: Dagon makes a few appearances in Lovecraft’s work...there’s a short story called “Dagon”... and while they’re often not included in the Chuthulu mythos, the short story “Dagon” is the first to introduce Chuthulu-like elements...so? #canon in my eyes.

The Humans

Anathema Device:

Anathema is pretty straight forward. The name refers to someone who is detested or shunned. But more Bible-related-y Anathema refers either to something that was consecrated or to someone denounced as evil or accursed and therefore set aside for sacrificial offering. Which, is pretty much the role of Anathema. Her family has chosen to sacrifice her and her freedom in exchange to stop the end of the world. While I wouldn’t call her evil or cursed, she is definitely detested (as a witch) by the Witchfinders and Adultery Pulsifer.

Agnes Nutter:

Alternatively: Agnes Sampson was a Scottish healer and purported witch known as the "Wise Wife of Keith". Sampson was burned in the North Berwick witch trials.

Alternatively: Agnes Waterhouse was the first person executed for witchcraft in England (1566). However, she was hanged, not burned like Sampson and Nutter.

Newton Pulsifer:

Like the character himself, Newton’s name is pretty unremarkable. It means “New Town”. Not much depth to his name. However, a “Newt” does have some religious imagery attached to its name. It supposedly symbolizes rebirth and renewal, which flows with his character arc.

Madame Tracy:

Tracy refers to “Warrior” and can sometimes mean “superior to” and “more powerful”. All of these seem to fit with a woman willing to share her body with an Angel and stand at the end of the world without flinching. Also, she clearly overrode Aziraphale’s choice to shoot a child and refused to do something she couldn’t and wouldn’t do. she’s a badass.

Shadwell:

Shadwell means a shallow spring, but it is also a place in West London. Given Shadwell’s naming strategies I’d actually not be too surprised if he just named himself after a street name he saw. He’s not too creative.

Warlock Dowling:

Warlock means “Deceiver” and like if that’s not his life story. Through no real fault of his own, he spends the first 11 years of his life as the prophecized Anti-Christ by Heaven, Hell, and our ineffable Duo. I suppose you could say he deceived them, but really, I think it’s hilariously on the nose as he’s the not-Anti-Christ.

Harriet Dowling:

Harriet is of French origin, and means “estate ruler” and as the diplomat’s wife, I think it’s fair to say she rules the huge estate we see in the series.

Thaddeus Dowling:

Thaddeus is likely Greek meaning “heart” and surprisingly (maybe only to me) in the Gospel of Matthew, appears as one of the apostles, although later in the Gospel the name “Jude” is also mentioned, and likely is referencing the same person.

Sister Mary Loquacious:

“Mary” often translates to beloved or rebellious, while Loquacious refers to “talkative” which, man. I kinda love it, because she’s one of the characters who not only talks alot (relative to her short time on-screen) but also is a sweetheart.

Diedre Young:

Diedre is a young Gaelic princess who died of a broken heart, although its etymology could also just mean “young girl”. Little is relevant to the larger arching story.

Arthur Young:

“Arthur” is Celtic for King, and legends from the round table (and some references from Ep. 3) aside, little about his name seems relevant to the story.

Rumors - part 36

~ RUMORS MASTERLIST ~

A blue truck is parked outside of the plantation house and movers are packing up what appears to be big painting into the truck.

- Rebekah was standing on the porch in front of the door; Absolutely not! I paid for that! “She declared as the movers move an expensive looking couch.”

- Elijah scoffed; Please. You never paid for anything in your life; “He stated.”

- What’s going on here? “I asked as I came out of the house holding a glass of blood in my hands.”

- Nik is punshing us; “Rebekah explained.”

- By taking a furniture? “I said with a laugh.”

- Because we've hurt him, deeply, it would appear; “Elijah said, then his phone rang and he saw that Hayley was calling him and he immediately answered.”

- We believed the worst about him, the one time in a million when the worst wasn't actually the truth; “Rebekah shakes her head and watches as Elijah walked few feet away from us to answer his phone.”

When Elijah was done talking with Hayley he came back where Rebekah and I were standing.

- Is everything okay? “I asked.”

- Apparently Klaus told all the vampires they could go and kill all the werewolves; “Elijah told us.”

- She is not safe with all of them there, especially not with Klaus; “Rebekah said.”

- Rebekah and I will go to make sure she doesn’t suffer from our mistakes; “Elijah said.”

Then they left for Klaus’ new place and I went back to my room to take a shower.

Few hours later they still didn’t come back. Rebekah send me a message saying how they went to the Bayou to help werewolves, so she doesn't know when they’re going to comeback.

Just couple of minutes later someone knocked at the doors of my room, where I was laying on my bed and watching something on my laptop.

- Come in; I yelled, and when I heard doors cracked open I saw Klaus; On the other hand, don’t come in.

- But he did, he came in and closed the door behind him; What do you want? I asked in annoyance; And I hope it’s not the furniture from my room, you already took half of the house.

- Will you let me talk? “Klaus questioned, ignoring everything that I told him.”

- No; “I replied quickly.”

- You want to meet Davina, right? “Klaus asked, with small smile appearing on his lips.”

- Yes. Where are you going with this? “I asked him, crossing the arms over my chest.”

- She is living at the compound now; “Klaus informed me.”

- Congradulations. You got yourself a witch; “I told him in flat tone.”

- Let me finish. I’ll let you to meet her; “Klaus told me.”

- I raised my eyebrow; Why? I betrayed you.

- It doesn't matter. You know I’m capable to forgive those who betrayed me; “Klaus said.”

- Why forgive just me? “I asked him.”

- If you start looking for excuses why should I forgive you and why should I let you meet Davina, maybe I’ll change my mind; Klaus told me, already getting impatient; I know you have a suspicions that Davina is part of your family.

- How do you know that? “I asked.”

- I have my resources; “Klaus said.”

- So is she? I asked quickly; I just need her last name to be hundred percent sure, she looks alot like my niece and I know she married a witch, a long time ago.

- Go and ask her by yourself; “Klaus simply told me and within seconds I vamp speeded to the compound.”

When I came there I saw Hayley, in the courtyard. And when she saw me she asked; What are you doing here?

- Klaus told me I can meet Davina. Where is she? “I asked her.”

- In her room, I guess; “Hayley said, furrowing her brows for a brief moment, before she started walking towards Davina’s room.”

- Great, this is my old room; “I remarked when we were in front of the door.”

- You lived here too? “Hayley asked and knocked at the door.”

- Yeah, I did; “I told her.”

- Davina half opened them and she asked looking at me; Who are you?

- Possible your new friend; “I told her with a small smile.”

- Davina raised her eyebrow and asked; What do you want?

- Can we come in the room? “I asked.”

Davina nodded and opened the door, then Hayley and I walked into her room.

- I’m Y/N; “I introduced myelf to Davina, extending my hand to shake hers.”

- Davina; “She said quickly.”

- Can I know what’s your last name? “I asked Davina.”

- She was glaring at me for a few seconds, bifore saying; Claire.

- I smiled; Oh, I knew it.

- What? “Hayley asked.”

- Davina narrowed her eyes in confusion at the two of us, and I spoke; I know this will sound confusing, but I believe that I’m your great-great-great-great aunt.

- Why should I believe you? “Davina asked, crossing her arms.”

- And why would I lie about that; I told her, before I took wallet from my bag and took the picture out of it; Look, this is my sister’s daughter. You look a lot like her and she married a Claire witch.

- Davina took the picture and looked at it and Hayley asked; Who else knows about this?

- Just Klaus and three of us; “I told her.”

- Davina forwned; You and Klaus are friends?

- I’m not a friend with him, in this moment, but yeah, I’m friend with the Mikaelsons; I told her and saw her paintings that were placed down on the floor; Anyway.. I see being an artist still runs in family.

- You draw too? “Davina asked.”

- Yeah, these are very nice; I said looking at her drawings; Do you want to go for a walk?

- Thanks; Davina said smiling; I can't. It's not safe for me out there.

- Funny, I was under the impression everyone was afraid of you; “Hayley says.”

- The witches are after me; “Davina explained.”

- You mean that witch, Agnes? She tried to kill Hayley too, but she's dead now, Elijah killed her; I told her and Hayley nodded.

- Upon hearing this, Davina shakes her head in disbelief; But Agnes was the last living Elder. If she's dead, then I'm safe. Marcel would've told me.

- Maybe he didn't wanna lose his secret weapon against the witches? “Hayley suggested.”

- Then I can't stay here. I'm not gonna be their puppet; Davina exclaimed frantically and looked at me; Can you get me out of here?

- Yeah, I know just the place, but we need to go before Klaus comes back; “I told her.”

- Are you sure? Hayley asked, stopping us from leaving; Klaus will be so mad and he is already mad at you too.

- I looked at her once more; Well don’t tell him you’ve been here with us and that you know where Davina is. Don’t worry I’m not scared of him.

Then I took Davina to my old apartment. She should be safe there, since no one knows about it except me.

- This is your apartment? “Davina asked looking around the room.”

- Yeah, but I wasn’t here for ages; I told her; I know it dusty, but-;

- Davina finished what I wanted to say; Anything is better than living with Klaus; then she looked at me and smiled.

- Can’t disagree on that; “I told her, returning the smile.”

- So you’re from New Orleans too? “Davina asked.”

- Yes, I was living in this apartment for a few times when I came to see my family; “I told her.”

- Why didn’t you lived with them? “Davina asked.”

- Because they didn’t like that I’m a vampire; “I told her.”

- Did you ever regret becoming a vampire because of that? “Davina asked.”

- Not for a second. I enjoy at being a vampire; “I said with a smile.”

- How do you have a picture of your niece if they rejected you? “Davina asked.”

- Well, she knew about me and she had some witchy friends who contacted me because she wanted to meet me, but after I found out how she wanted me to turn her I never saw her again.

- Why didn’t you, turn her? “Davina asked.”

- I didn’t wanted her to go through what I did. It a very long story that I don’t really want to talk about; I told her briefly; I’ll say that I just compelled her to forget about me and that she doesn't want to be a vampire.

- And that’s how she married a Claire witch; “Davina stated.”

- Yes. If I didn’t compelled her maybe she would be a vampire too, since this town was crawling with vampires; I told her, then I took my phone to see if I have any message and saw that Cami sent me a message 20 minutes ago, saying; Come to my apartment, it’s urgent. I need to tell you something.

- Hey Davina; I looked up at Davina; I need to go now, enjoy in your new home.

- Is there something worng? “Davina asked.”

- I don’t know, but I’ll be back in a jiff; “I said flashed out of the apartment.”

When I came in front of the Cami’s apartment I saw her with a suitcases, locking the door.

- Hey Cami; I said standing behind her; I’m sorry, I didn’t saw the message immediately, what was so urgent?

- Cami turned around and looked at me confused; I’m sorry. Do I know you?

- What? It’s not the time for playing jokes; “I told her.”

- I really don’t know who you are, please leave me alone; “Cami said, wanting to walk past me.”

- You’ve been compelled; “I realized quickly and grabbed her, vamp speeding back to the apartment where Davina was.”

- That was fast; Davina remarked, just before her eyes fell on confused Cami; What is she doing here?

- Someone compelled her to forget everyting; “I told her.”

- Will you tell me, who the hell are you two and what Am I doing here? “Cami exclaimed.”

- It's okay, I can fix her; Davina assured me then looked at Cami; I'm really sorry, but this is gonna hurt.

- Cami watched her as she held her hand towards her; What are you doing? “She asked, furrowing her eyebrows in confusion.”

Then Davina magically begins to undo the compulsion as she focuses all her attention on Cami. Cami’s tortured screams echoed through the apartment as the compulsion is stripped from her mind.

- Oh god, it hurts! “Cami cried in a strained voice as she clutched at her head with tears streaming down her cheeks.”

- I'm sorry, Cami. It's the only way to break compulsion; “Davina informed her softly.”

- We were doing this the whole night, when it’ll be over? “I asked.”

- I don’t know, soon I hope; “Davina told me.”

- Cami dropped her hand to the floor with a whimper of pain as she weakly lifted her head to look as the two of us, her lower lip trembled; I don't understand what's happening to me, I don't understand any of this.

- But you will, I will unlock every stolen memory, undo every piece of mind control that any vampire has ever done to you. When I'm done, you will understand all of it, and you'll be free; Davina informed her firmly a kind voice; I can stop, if you want me to.

- Cami is determined; No, don't stop. I want to remember everything.

After some time Cami was still screaming in pain. Then Davina stopped, allowing Cami a moment to breath.

- Davina dropped to her knees in front of her; You should start to feel, like, a weight lifting.

- I found a picture of Klaus and Marcel from 1919. Klaus compelled me to go out with Marcel, to spy on him. That's what he said yesterday, before he told me to forget, I'm remembering; Cami spoke and glanced at me; You’re living with vampires. Wait. You are one of them aren’t you?

- Yes, I’m; “I told her.”

- Let's take you back more; “Davina told her.”

Cami nods and Davina puts her hands on her temples and begins to work more magic.

Cami remembers the memories Klaus compelled away and her nose begins to bleed when she returns to the present.

When everything was finally done, Cami let out a deep breath, glad that it worked and that agony is over.

- Is there a way that no one can compel me? “Cami asked.”

- You need to drink vervain; “I replied.”

- Oh okay, I’m deffinetly going to drink it; “Cami stated.”

Suddenly Davina felt a rushing sensation flush over her as she stumbled backwards. She was overwhelmed by a vision of Sabine and Sophie doing a spell. Cami stands up and looks at her, clearly concerned.

- Davina? “Cami asked in a worried tone of voice.”

- What’s going on? “I asked.”

- Someone's practicing magic. They're trying to find me; “Davina said breathlessly.”

- Then we have to run; “Cami stated.”

- No we don’t. No one can enter this house; “I told them.”

- Maybe vampires can’t, but withces can; “Davina reminded me.”

- Oh right. Then put the barrier spell, so they can’t enter either; I suggested; It’s safer if you stay here and Cami too.

- They will take it down; “Davina said quickly.”

Then we heard my phone ringing and the two of them quickly looked at me. I pulled it out of the pocked and saw that Rebekah is calling, so I answered; Hey.

- Hayley told me that Davina is with you; “Rebekah said the moment she heard my voice.”

- Who else knows that? “I asked her.”

- No one, but soon they will find out where you two are; “Rebekah told me.”

- Klaus and Marcel can’t get inside this apartment; “I told her, pacing through the room.”

- So what? You’re going to stay there forever? “Rebekah asked.”

- I got your point, but if they go somewhere, someone could recognize Davina; “I told her.”

- They? Rebekah exclaimed; Who else is there with you?

- Cami; “I replied.”

- Look I’m going to help you keep Davina safe, tell them to come to the church, I’ll go there now; “Rebekah said and hung up.”

- I looked back at Davina and Cami who were waiting for me to say something; Okay, so change of plans. Rebekah will help us, meet her at the church. I’ll make a distraction here, they can come here any minute.

- Rebekah? I don’t like her; “Davina declared.”

- If you can trust me, you can trust her; I told her, opening the front door; Now go.

About 15 minutes later someone knocked at the door of the apartment, I take a deep breath and opened them and Marcel and Klaus were in front of me.

- I should have known you’re the one that took Davina; “Klaus stated when he saw me.”

- I didn’t took her; “I told him.”

- No? One of mine nightwalkers told us, he saw you and Davina entered this building; “Marcel informed me.”

- Well then he made a mistake; “I said firmly.”

- Klaus tried to come into the apartment but he couldn’t, he looks at me angrily and say; Who owns this place?

- Someone who is far far away; “I told him amused.”

- Well that sounds suspicious to me; Marcel remarked; Why would you be in there if Davina isn’t with you?

- Why not? I came to visit my old apartment, after all these years; “I told him.”

- DAVINA! Come out, I know you’re here; “Marcel yelled.”

- She is not here; “I exclaimed.”

- We don’t believe you, come out if you’re telling the truth; “Klaus said.”

- I smiled and stepped out of the apartment, then Klaus grabbed me and compelled me asking; Where is Davina?

- I don’t know; “I lied.”

- In the next moment I could feel Klaus’ fangs tearing through my skin; She is full of a vervain; “He says after he bit me.”

- Marcel laugh; Then we know she is lying.

- I’m not lying; I said once again, and looked at Klaus; Give me your blood.

- Why? “Klaus asked.”

- Because you bite me; “I told him, pointing at the wound.”

- I don’t see a problem with that; “Klaus remarked smugly.”

- What? I’ll die if you don’t give me your blood; “I told him, thinking that would change his mind.”

- You should think about that before you lied to me; Klaus said in an unusually calm voice and then they flashed away. I tried to follow them, but they already run off.

- I called Rebekah again, the moment she answered I told her quickly; We have a problem.

- What happened? “Rebekah asked.”

- Klaus bite me; “I told her.”

- He did what? Rebekah exclaimed; Why would he do that?

- He compelled me and then he bite me and realized that I have a vervain in my system and that I’m lying to them; “I explained as quickly as I could.”

- Uh, that’s not good. But how did he bite you when he can’t get in? “Rebekah asked.”

- Well I stepped out of the apartment; “I told her.”

- Why the hell would you do that? “Rebekah burts out.”

- I didn’t think he would bite me; “I said quietly.”

- Rebekah sighed; Well you thought wrong.

- Tell me about it. I’m going to die; “I said.”

- No you won’t. Don’t worry; “Rebekah said and then I heard her groan in pain.”

- Bekah, what’s going on? “I aksed.”

- Witches; “Rebekah said quickly.”

- I’m coming; “I told her and hung up.”

As I walked into the church I saw three dead witches on the floor and Rebekah with the broken neck, Cami was unconscious and Davina wasn’t there.

I feed Cami my blood and slowly she began to wake up. When she realized she is drinking my blood she wanted to stop but I told her; Don’t stop, it will heal you.

Few minutes later Rebekah also wake up. She looked around her saying; Where is Davina?

- I don’t know, she wasn’t here when I came; “I told her.”

- We need to find her; “Rebekah said.”

- Yeah; I nodded; Cami you go home, it’s not safe on the streets.

- Okay, but when you find her, call me; “Cami said.”

- I will; “I told her, before Rebekah and I left.”

Before we came to the compound Davina was already dealing with Klaus, Elijah and Marcel. Rebekah appears and stabs Marcel through the chest with a wrought-iron poker. He chokes for a moment before he falls unconscious onto the ground, just like Klaus and Elijah.

We look around at the neutralized bodies of Klaus, Elijah, and Marcel and I say; This is impressive.

- And well-deserved, in my opinion; Rebekah said, stepping over Marcel’s body.

I smiled at her, beofre I walked over to Klaus.

- What are you doing? “Davina asked me.”

- He bite me, I need to heal; “I told her, as I took his wrist and bite him.”

- It's okay, Timothy. You can come down. No one is gonna hurt you; “Rebekah called up to the teenage boy.”

- He told me I couldn't climb down off this beam; “Tim said in a small frightened voice as he glanced down at the ground.” - Then don't climb, silly! Am I the only smart one in the room? Jump; Rebekah told him, then Tim jumps down and she catches him before gently setting him onto the floor. - I've just proven that you can trust me. Now I'd like to show you one more thing. Won't take long. You can bring your friends; “Rebekah said softly.”

Rebekah and I led the way towards the Garden as Davina and Tim followed us. Our footsteps echoed through spacious room, as well as disgruntled moans coming from the encased vampires.

- Josh shivered slightly when he heard them. His eyes landed on the Tim who wasn’t sure where he is and why he is here; Oh, don’t worry. They are not really dead, just really hungry.. and I’m not helping; “Josh told him.”

- You think my brother Nik is awful? Marcel learned from the best. This is how he treats his so-called friends who betray him. Most of what these poor souls did is no worse than what Josh did; Rebekah said bluntly as she paced through the room and gestured with her hands to vampires; Take Thierry, for example. He was Marcel's most trusted friend. Klaus tricked him into breaking one of Marcel's rules. Marcel knows this, and yet he keeps Thierry locked in here day after day, suffering.

- Why are you telling me this? “Davina asked her sceptically.”

- Because you need to know who you're dealing with; Rebekah replied firmly and I added; And who you can trust.

- Hey, it's gonna be okay. I mean, you're gonna be allright. Here, drink something; Tim urged Davina gently as he held out the plastic water bottle. Davina offered him a smile as she took it from him before taking a small sip of the water.

- Rebekah stepped forward, as she began to spoke; Davina, both you and I and Y/N have been lied to and taken advantage of by Marcel and Klaus. Maybe together, we can get a little payback.

Suddenly coughs echoed through the room, drawing everyone's attention to the human who fell to his knees.

- Tim? “Davina says in a worried tone.”

- It was Klaus. He made me do it, I didn't even know what I was doing until I made you- ; “Tim gasped out weakly in between coughs.”

- Made her what? “I asked.”

- Drink; “Tim whispered quietly.”

- Klaus poisoned the water; “Rebekah says horrified.”

- Oh my God, he is so going to pay for this; “I said.”

Then Davina starts to get dizzy too and she falls to the floor in a coughing fit, I kneeled beside her.

- Give her your blood; “Rebekah suggested.”

- I bit my wrist and gave her my blood; It’s not working; “I said.”

- Then I’m going to call Klaus; Rebekah says as she pulls out her phone.

- Rebekah, where are you? “Klaus asked on the other end.”

- I’m with Davina, and she’s dying because of your threachery; “Rebekah spoke.”

- Well I tried to talk to her out of respect for Marcel, but she made it quite clear she is not our friend; Klaus replied; My apologies if you thought she was yours.

- Just tell me how to cure her; Rebekah demanded; Vampire blood isn’t working.

- No. It wouldn’t. You see the poison I compelled Timothy to feed her is quite potent. It’s just a matter of time for her; “Klaus said amused.”

- For both of them, you diabolical bastard. They’re children. We could’ve dealt with her fairly; “Rebekah says disgusted with her brother.”

- There is no dealing with those who threatened us. Davina sealed her faith when she stood against me. This was her choice, not mine; “Klaus defended himself and hung up.”

The courtyard of the compound was silent, except for our footsteps, as we made our way inside. Rebekah held Davina in her arms.

- When Marcel saw us, he rushes toward Rebekah; Is she okay?

- She's devastated and exhausted; “I told him.”

- Where is her room? “Rebekah asked him.”

- No. I got her; Marcel mumured quietly as he held out his arms to take Davina.

- I thought I bite you; “Klaus stated, glaring at us.”

- Well I served myself with your blood while you were here unconscious; “I told him.”

- You’re responsible for everything that happedned today; “Klaus said.”

- Yeah. Just please don’t blame yourself; “I told him without any expresion on my face.”

- You’re the one that took her in the first place; Klaus says in a harsh voice.

- Like she wouldn’t run away alone; I say, rolling my eyes; Stop blaming everyone else for your actions. We were lucky Marcel had a witch to put a protection spell on Davina, if he didn’t she would be dead now.

- Rebekah exhaled sharply; Stop it, we are going out of here; “She said, grabbing my hand and pulling me out of the compound.”

When we walked out of the compound I yanked my hand from Rebekah’s grip because I was so pissed at Klaus. I started walking faster so I can be far away from there as possible.

- Wait! “Rebekah yelled after me.”

- I stopped and turned around, she stepped closer to me, saying; I know you want Davina to bring back Kol, but why do you care about her that much?

- Hayley didn’t told you? “I asked.”

- What? “Rebekah says narrowing her eyes.”

- Davina is my family, I’m her great-great-great-great aunt; “I told her.”

- Why didn’t you tell me that? “Rebekah asked.”

- Because I wasn’t sure.. until yesterday, when she told me her last name; “I said.”

- Did Klaus knew that? “Rebekah asked.”

- I nodded; I’m pretty sure he did.

- Well then, let’s go and take another step in our plan against Marcel and Klaus; Rebekah says to me, with a smile forming on her face.

- So where do we going? “I asked.”

- Back to the Garden; “Rebekah told me.”

We went back to the Garden to speak with Thierry, so he can help us take New Orleans from Klaus and Marcel and we have a secret weapon that they won’t see coming, Davina.

Mors De Lumine: Epilogus

Vermilion Graves

Prologue • 1 • 2 • 3 • 4 • 5 • 6 • 7 • 8 • 9 • 10 • 11 • 12 • 13 • 14 • 15 • 16 • 17 • 18 • 19 • 20 • 21 • 22 • 23 • 24 • 25 • 26 • 27 • 28 • 29 • 30 • 31 • Climax • 33 • 34 • 35 • 36 • 37 • 38 • 39 • 40 • 41 • 42 • 43 • 44 • 45 • 46 • 47 • Finale • Epilogue

“Knowledge is alot like water.” My toes land in puddles of red with each step. Sometimes on broken glass. Sometimes, on broken people. “When you obtain knowledge, it flows, it gains volume, and therefore, gains mass, and then, weight. You can be weighed down by what you know. Your knowledge can slow you down. If you let it, it can drown you. Secrets--that’s the worst kind of knowledge.”

I select a chair, and I punt the lifeless whore out of it before swinging it around and sitting on it in front of the madam of the establishment.

“That’s how I found you, Saga. That’s how I find anything, i accumulate knowledge, and there is more than one way to accumulate knowledge. Listen, experiment, study, make mistakes. Unless you plug your ears and go ‘la-la-la-la-la-la-la!’ there is no way you can’t wake up in the morning knowing what you know, and then retiring in the evening even a little smarter.”

Saga looks at me wearily. “How did you learn about Vermilion Graves? You can’t be her, you’re too old. Vermilion was born seven years after Paris, she would be--”

“Fourteen” I reply. “Someone’s on a roll, that was a question, experiment, and a mistake. I read William Hite’s record. I don’t know why he lied about it. I remember everything about my birth, including the date. January 12th, the following year after Paris. It was a bright room. I couldn’t see much, I had never used my eyes before, but I remember a man thanking the woman who brought me into this world, saying: ‘Thank you.’ He said it, over and over and over. Later when he came back, he said it again, and this time, the woman was able to respond. She said ‘Whatever. Just make sure I get paid, William.’ Not the best way to learn about your parents, the instant you get out of the womb, right?

“Anyway, I grew up, I was trained, I learned everything I was required to learn, and it was fun. I was surprisingly adept at what they taught me. Everyone I met told me that I was a natural” I tore dagger out of Saga’s hand, and she held it close to her chest. She’d no doubt clench it with her other hand if it wasn’t pinned to the desk, too. I walk around the table and sit in her lap, unable to think straight with he screaming in my ears. “One day, when I was 15, one of my teacher’s lets it slip: ‘She’s just like her donor.’ I ran back to William and I ask him…’what did my teachers mean by that.’ He stammers for a lie, I’ve seen him do it a hundred times, and I was sick of it by then so I just--” I slam my dagger into her kneecap and my ears go deaf with her wailing. I clamp her mouth with an open palm. “So after I tore his dignity to shreds, he lets out the one bit of knowledge that hammers in my skull. I was made from DNA samples. The woman that birthed me was no more my mother than a unicorn was. In truth, I had two mothers, a girl named Paris and girl named Sparrow. And I’ve been obsessed with learning about them. One could mold the world, the other could destroy it. They were literally the celestials that could change the world…. And then they went to war. And then you took her. When I still had so much to learn.

I swing my leg over her and straddle her lap, pulling the dagger from the knee. I feel her shudder, I hear her ache. When I lift my hand from her mouth, I can hear panic. “I think I’m onto something. After I attacked William, they brought you and Agnes to convince me to stay dormant. In your own special way. I don’t know why your suggestions and hypnotism don’t...but it was advice I heeded. I stayed low. If only to pretend that the Umbrae Somnia hoodoo actually worked. But I never stopped learning, never stopped training.

“And then I heard about the War, and I knew instantly that it was Sparrow. She was the instrument that Delun used to start it. And then I got an idea...It’s a good one. I just need to learn a couple more things. And for that to happen, I need for you to take me to Sparrow to ask a couple of questions.

Her eyes shudder shut as I bring the bloodied dagger to her jaw. “Arrange the visitation. Or else what I did to everyone in your disgusting club I’ll do to you. Your choice.” I pull the other dagger from out of her hand and I slam both blades into each of her thighs. I stand up and I make my way to the door.

“I’ll give you a day to mull it over.”

I pass over broken body after broken body, through the shattered door, and past her terrified secretary on my way to the bar where I help myself to a glass of water.
