“I died as I lived, embarrassingly”
She did the thing guys!!!!
It is the exact same cadence as how she ended Last Life. Which is such a good callback!
“So I left this world just as I had entered it, confused”
Also, justice for Lizzie!! I was so hoping for her placing high this season, she is the epitome of tragedy in my opinion.
Her first season: Plagued by the biggest betrayal the Life Series has ever witnessed. Her downfall was the fault of her allies. She was even permanently taken out by a fellow red name in a play for a life which never came to fruition. Her death was a senseless sacrifice.
In Secret Life: While it may have been a ploy to complete her task, no one showed up to Lizzie’s Birthday. NO ONE WAS EVEN DOING ANYTHING! They still didn’t come. Lizzie was never shown true loyalty by anyone. Except her Husband. And because of that loyalty, she took on something silly in order to help him. Despite telling Cleo multiple times to wear a pumpkin in the last episode, despite her LITERALLY LIVING IN A PUMPKIN PATCH, she still died to an Enderman. She was so close to killing Scott to, she just needed another well placed hit, or anything really! It was so accidental. Everything that could have gone wrong did. She even had an enderpearl, but she didn’t react quick enough. And isn’t that just Lizzie’s life series definer? She needed to react to Bdubs quicker, she needed to push Scott on that edge, she needed to throw the enderpearl, and so much more.
Small tragic accidents have always been Lizzie’s downfall.
It’s not a curse, not really anyways. Not for a player like Lizzie. Because here’s the thing, she is so good at this game. She has a hand in all of the skills that make a winner. Style, social, strategy, build, PvP, Redstone, etc. she has it all. She set’s herself apart and yet can’t help but lean into chaos. She can’t help but lean to much into the chaos. She’s erratic instead of calculated. She’s as Chaotic Good as they come and that’s why it’s not a curse. It’s just her nature.
With all that being said, please don’t make Lizzie’s death about the Canary Curse. She is more than that. Don’t forget.

71 - Mikaelson's Don't Go Down Easy
Part 72
Her Life Means Everything
We are getting closer to the end of this book. So if there is something you want to see before I complete this let me know
@mrs-fanfiction-2001 @the-big-bad-klaus @dragonixfrye @samsgirl93 @elijahmikaelsonbitch
Shutting the desk drawer I heard footsteps coming up behind me and I was over the moon at who I was standing there. “Damon. Oh my god!” Jumping up into his arms he stumbled backwards wrapping his arms around my waist.
“I’ve missed you, little Forbes.” He mumbled into my loose hair before he sat me down on my feet. He dropped his arms at his sides smiling. “Elena wishes she could be here but she had to drop our daughter off at school.”
Pushing hair behind my ear I shrugged my shoulders at him. “The life of a parent ain’t easy. Just be happy that you are a few years away from raising teenagers cause it is not an easy job.”
“You seem to be doing pretty good. I still can’t believe this place is gonna become a school.” He glanced around the room seeing that my sister had already had some logos made up. The sign was up out front and she was hiring people to be teachers too.
Shaking my head I chuckled at his words. “Well you know my sister. When she sets her mind to something she won’t stop until she gets through it…I hope that wherever Stefan is watching from up there. That he is happy with what we are doing.”
“Yeah me too, Maddie.” He paused where we each noticed the wedding ring on our hands. He had married Elena a few years after Stefan’s funeral. It was just a small wedding underneath the clock tower with their friends and family. “I finally understand why you enjoyed being human. It makes every day need to mean something.”
Intertwining my hands with his where he locked gazes with me. “It’s funny when I was human I didn’t think I was good enough. It wasn’t until I became a vampire that I realized I was always supposed to be supernatural….Damon, I know this will surprise you but I need to thank you for turning me.”
“I never thought you would thank me for making you a vampire, Mads.” He chuckled, taken back by what I had said before I wrapped my arms around him in a hug smiling.
Klaus and I were doing our best to make the drive back to the location that Lizzie had told me about. He had healed me from my werewolf bite that he had given me. Tapping my fingers on my knees I couldn’t stop my mind from playing out the worst possible outcomes if we didn’t get our daughters to turn back to their humanity selves. “What are we going to do with them, Nik…I mean look at them in this picture. Landon and little Henry are everything to them.”
“You brought me back, Mads. If anyone has taught me anything since you and I have come together. There is nothing we can’t do when we are a team.” He glanced in my direction looking at the picture I had up on my phone. It was a family photo I had taken of Hope and Nikola wrapped in the arms of Landon and our grandson sitting in the middle.
The phone rang where I put it up to my ear hearing my twin sisters voice coming through. “Maddie, I just sent you their location. Josie was able to find a vial of Hope’s blood in medical. Do everything you can to bring them home and be safe sis.”
“Thanks, Care. We will hopefully have them home soon.” I hung the phone up where Klaus hit the gas making the trip much faster since we could just compel the cops if they tried to give us a ticket. The girls were in an old museum with some caskets that looked like we used to put the Egyptian gods to rest centuries ago.
Pushing hair away from my ear I used the vamp hearing trying to locate at least one of my daughters but it didn’t take long because when we walked in Hope ran straight for us. “Mom. Dad, Lizzie has Nikola trapped in another room and she has a stake that can kill us.”
“Hope, sweetheart. Are you back…Aunt Care said that your sister had taken little Henry too.” I questioned wrapping my arms around her in a warm hug. She wrapped her arms around me leaning into my embrace, remaining there for a few moments.
She broke the hug where I could see that she had some tears falling down her face meaning she was back to her old self. “Yeah I turned right after I found out she had brought him along with us. I guess the auntie instinct isn’t strong enough to keep my humanity off.” She turned her head to the side seeing that Henry was sleeping on the floor wrapped in a blanket.
“A Mikaelson prince shouldn’t be sleeping on the floor.” Klaus picked him up in his arms looking at us.
Whipping my head forward I heard a voice coming down a hallway where I vamped being able to see Lizzie and Nikola standing inside the room. “So now's your chance. Let's see if you have it in you.” Nikola broke a piece of wood tossing it towards the blonde.
“I came here wanting to make you hurt, like you hurt all of us, but seeing you in front of me, I......I hate this. I hate how many good memoriesI have of you. I hate that I have to be the one to do this, because no one else will.” Lizzie declares raising her hand where I saw that she was holding a red stake in her hand making me start to panic.
Whipping my head around to my daughter I attempted to yank away the deprie that was keeping us from them but it was too big. “Hope, you’re stronger than me. Break it open!”
“Got it.” She placed her hands out in front of her mumbling a spell I couldn’t understand before it blasted open right before our eyes.
“But most of all......I hate you for being my friend and for being a part of my weird, messed-up family and for making me love you, Nikola Mikaelson. Because no matter how far you go, no matter how evil you become...apparently I can't be the one to stop you.” Lizzie didn’t turn around to face us, too focused on the person she wanted to kill right in front of her. I could hear her heartbeat speeding up but she lowered her hand dropping it on the floor.
Henry started crying which caused Nikola to gasp and I released the weight off my shoulders seeing that my other daughter actually cried again. “Henry…mommy is okay.”
“I can’t believe you two got here just to save them..” Lizzie spat at me where I sent her a glare.
“We can talk about your punishment later, Elizabeth. For now would someone explain to us what on earth makes you think it was okay to try and kill my daughter!” I snarked revealing my fangs to her.
Nikola stepped up taking her son from her father’s hand, eyeing him. She sniffed through some tears remembering everything she had done including making her own parents fight each other. “I am sorry about what I did..,I never meant to hurt you and dad. I just…I couldn’t handle the loss of Landon.”
“You don’t have to apologize, little Tribrid. I understand the pain. On two occasions your mother had to nearly die for me to turn my switch back on.” Klaus responded to her draping his arm over my shoulder. I lay my head on his shoulder intertwining my hand with his.
Hope stepped up offering her hand to the newly turned heretic. “We should get Aurora out of my sister's body before she regains control over her body.”
“Aurora de Martell. What he bloody hell is she doing in her body!” My husband asked, growing under his breath.
Clutching my freehand into a fist at my side I glared towards my eldest daughter like I was seeing Aurora’s eyes. That vampire nearly tried to tear Klaus and I apart during the years when the girls were younger. I didn’t trust what she said and let my jealousy get the better of me until now. “That red head vampire is still alive. I thought we took care of her years ago!”
“Easy you guys. We will take care of her…and it was a long story that we can talk about later.” Hope raised her freehand.
Lizzie shrugs her shoulders, finally meeting Nikloa’s gaze when she told her. “You know, I have to be honest. When Josie told me that you weren't too far gone, I didn't believe her.”
“Me neither….I am sorry for what I did to your father.” She apologized before the pair raised their hands performing the spell where we watched the red headed vampire body drop onto the floor leaving Nikola standing there holding her son before she dropped to the floor for a few minutes.
“How will we know that it worked?” I questioned the pair waiting for her to wake up.
Hope responded back seeing her sister sit up straight locking eyes with the girls. “I guess she’ll say something only the real her would know.”
“It worked. Panda promise.” She declares before the other two helped her stand and hug her knowing that she was her true self now. Sighing in relief Klaus kissed my forehead smiling that we had our daughters back.
Aurora shot us from the ground rising to her feet seeing all of us watching her, mostly speaking at Nikola and Hope. “You can't trust her. Once a Mikaelson, always a Mikaelson….hello Nik, have you missed me?”
“Aurora!” He breathes out flashing his werewolf eyes.
She stomped up twirling some of her hair when she finally noticed that I was standing at his side. “I assume that this former human isn’t making you happy or if she is maybe I will have to possess her body instead to get my revenge on you.”
Vamping as close as I could to her I grabbed her neck in my hands quickly snapping her neck dropping her body on the ground once more. “Nobody messes with the Mikaelson’s and gets away with it!” Turning to my family Klaus just smirked proudly at me where I could tell he was so turned on at what I had just done. “Now let’s go home, all of us.”
Comments really appreciated ❤️
