Chapter Text
The Mikaelson family ran across the French quarter, Elijah held a baby Hope as they ran away from witches. They knew this would happen eventually, they knew by keeping hope with them that witches would come or wolves. They ran together ready to fend off any witches that got in their way, they were all quite powerful. Except when strong witches were chasing them ready to burst blood vessels in their brains.
They pulled up to a graveyard, one that maybe they could pass through to get to the other side of town faster. They knew this was a viable shortcut as it would cover them as they ran and to top it off, they would be on the other side of town, they’d be home free.
You watched as the family turned into the graveyard, you slowly prowled on top of the of the graveyard’s fence. You knew what was coming, the witches were waiting for them, they stood like a wall behind some tombstones. When the family turned the corner, they were blocked by the witches, they stopped and now they were surrounded.
They started to chant, you knew what they were doing, you knew the spell, they were going to kill the baby. You moved along the tops of different crypts, quiet as a mouse, eventually, you were right above them. You jumped down in front of the family and started to chant yourself, immediately the witches reacted.
“Nothing wrong with a little havoc, it’s fun when shit hits the fan,” your chanting increased.
They stopped their chanting as they held their heads or throats or chests. Blood slowly oozed from their mouths, eyes, nose, ears, and mouths; they were choking on the blood before you whooshed your hand violently in the air.
“So, guillotine their heads by shouting. Cut them off, leave waters red.”
All their heads came clean off, they dropped like flies around the family, their lifeless and headless bodies. The family was scared, they didn’t know who you were and clearly, you were powerful. Even Kol didn’t recognize the incantation you used, nothing this knew could be this strong. Unless it was extremely old, but he studied so much magic from so many eras, he would’ve known it, he should’ve known it.
“Thank you,” Elijah was the first to speak.
“Don’t mention it,” you responded as you looked at him, then went to leave.
Klaus grabbed your arm as you turned to leave, “why did you do it? Why help us?”
“Is it so hard to believe that there are still good people in the world?”
“Yes, it is.”
“Well, if you must know. I know what it's like to be outcasted and have everyone after you. She didn’t ask for this life; she didn’t get a choice. She deserves to make her own decisions, she’s just a baby. She deserves to live. If she wants to fuck it up when she’s older and can have her own thoughts then she can. But now, she has no choice, she didn’t choose who she was. She didn’t ask to be this way; she is suffering because of something she can’t control. People are after her to kill her for something she more than likely doesn’t want. Being a tribrid is a burden, it's hard to handle and cope with. She will have to be strong to handle it and knowing the family she comes from it shouldn’t be hard.”
You went to walk off again, this time it was Kol that stopped you.
“That spell? Where did you learn it?”
“I made it myself.”
“Yourself? You made a spell and it’s that strong these witches are hundreds of years old with major powers. I didn’t think a good witch would kill their own,” Kol was surprised.
“I never said I was good. Nor did I say they were my own.”
“Witches always band together,” Rebekah added.
You scoffed, “witches, when have they ever done anything for me? The most a witch has ever done for me was run me out of my own house.”
“Are you not a witch?” Elijah asks.
“Partly. I was only ever an abomination to my parents.”
“Your parents are witches and you are only partly?” Klaus asked.
“They were witches.”
“Were?”
“I killed them. Once I turned, I got my revenge.”
“You’re a heretic,” Kol stated.
“Duh.”
“How would you like to stay with us?” Klaus asked walking up to you.
“Aren’t you guys leaving New Orleans?”
“Not anymore thanks to you and with you by our side, no one will ever bother Hope.”
“Sure, why not. Every 200 years you have to be a little spontaneous.”
“You’re 200?” Kol asked.
“243 to be exact.”
You walked out of the graveyard with the Mikaelson family back towards the abattoir. You ended up staying with them in their home and living your life. Occasionally you would have to fight off witches or wolves coming to hurt the child that you grew to care for as much as Elijah.
It was about a week after starting to stay at the Mikaelson home that you met Hayley and man you kind of really hated her. She was so disorganized and flighty; she seemed to overreact and not respect people. I mean after hearing the whole story of Hope and the family, you didn’t blame her for hating Klaus.
You slowly found yourself growing closer to each Mikaelson for different reasons. Kol was because of your magic and all the spells you’ve made. Rebekah liked having another girl around, she also liked to take you shopping, and she needed a new shopping buddy. Elijah liked how mature and level-headed you were, he liked how strong and calm you were. Then Klaus, he found himself falling for you as you supported him and gave him affirmation, you actually listened to him.
The family grew closer and closer to you as you spent longer and longer helping them and living with them. It didn’t take long for you to start a relationship with Klaus then Kol then Elijah and lastly, Rebekah. You had talked extensively with them about doing this open relationship with them and being fair in all ways.
You had all talked it through, everyone was okay with sharing you. You ensured them that things needed to be fair and that there can’t be any fighting. Little did you know you’d be the first one to get jealous. Hayley came around often to see the baby but on top of that, you knew she heavily flirted with Elijah.
You asked Rebekah what it was all about, you knew that Hayley had some wolf she was supposed to marry. You wondered why she would come back here and try to flirt with someone she couldn’t have. Now, of course, you had to remember no one knew you were fucking the whole family.
It was better this way, it was more dangerous for people to know. All everyone knew was that you were the current Mikaelson family witch. But, you figured that Hayley had a husband or soon-to-be husband. Why would she want Elijah, I mean yes he’s very good looking but like she is choosing to marry someone.
You at times had to hold back from wanting to rip her throat out. The family could see and feel your jealousy, they mostly just made fun of you for it. You knew Elijah would never go off and fuck her, at least, not anymore. You were mad to find that out, I mean it was bad enough that she fucked two of your four lovers.
As time went on, you grew closer to the family, you made friends with their friends. Word slowly got around that you were sleeping with them. So now you had friends and very strong scary enemies that came from the Mikaelsons. You were strong and fast and smart, but nothing could prepare you for what was to come.
You had been awoken when some of your lovers came back into the home yelling. You had fallen asleep on the couch while binging shows with Rebekah. You had fallen asleep in her arms, you both woke up and sat up as you heard Klaus yelling. He was yelling at Elijah and Kol, you didn’t really know what it was about yet.
“What’s going on?”
“We have a little bit of a problem,” Klaus all but snarled.
“Clearly, but what’s happening?”
“The withes you killed a couple of years ago? While we were running away with Hope?” Elijah started.
You nodded slowly.
“Turns out some of their coven wasn’t there and some of their descendants are out for us. Revenge for killing them and still about Hope. The only problem now is that they have teamed up with wolves and even a few vampires,” Kol said as he crossed his arms.
“Nothing we can’t handle. We got strong vampires, a hybrid, and a heretic. The five of us are pretty strong and unbeatable,” you tried to hype them up. You knew how dangerous this sounded and fighting against them could be suicide. For you, the rest of the family was unkillable unless they had white oak or took Klaus’ head off.
“We are strong but there are only five of us. There could be dozens of them,” Klaus argued.
“You guys are unkillable, mostly. We will be fine. We’ve fought harder. Witches don’t know how to counter my spells, remember? They are too new and unique.”
“They are on their way here either way. We have no choice but to fight,” Elijah stated.
“They will be blinded by rage and revenge. They will never win,” Rebekah finally adds.
“That is true and we are still stronger. I can use my magic to help us.”
It was then that all of you could hear the sound of footsteps coming closer, they were hear.
“And they made the mistake of coming into our territory. We have the advantage,” you smiled as you looked at all of them.
The five of you left the house and walked into the back garden. There stood about 10 witches, six wolves and two vampires. Less than you thought, but still going to be a challenge. You all were prepared, you knew what was going to happen, there were about some more dead witches.
Luckily, this time you weren’t alone in fighting them, you had four of your lovers with you. You could save some energy just by not needing to use a whole bunch of magic. The five of you ran towards the witches, they were young and ill-equipped.
Truth be told this wasn’t going to even be a fight. The problem was coming from wolves, even the vampires were overconfident and quickly had their hearts ripped out. The witches were nowhere near as strong as you were, you could easily outsmart them.
Even their faces were shocked when you cast spells that they had never heard of. Then once Elijah and Kol had taken care of them, now you were faced with wolves. Six wolves to be exact, and tonight wasn’t a full moon but they were shifting regardless. That was when you all realized, they weren’t wolves, they were hybrids.
They shifted quickly and they went running at the five of you. Klaus was easily able to pick some of them off and his siblings were fairly strong and able to help themselves. But once one was on top of you, you forgot all about your magic. You fought with it to ensure you didn’t get bit, it snarled on top of you and you couldn’t fight back.
The wolf was stronger than you, especially while you weren’t using your magic. Not to mention you didn’t even think about the fact that you could siphon it. Then it was pulled off you by Klaus, he killed it and Elijah offered you his hand. You stood up and stood next to Elijah as you all assessed the damages.
It was a relatively easy fight despite what you were prepared for. Rebekah was right, they were weak, and they didn’t have clear heads. They were blinded by rage and revenge, they never stood a chance. When it came to Hope’s safety or yours the family was on guard.
They wouldn’t ever risk your safety or hers. They knew at this point they couldn’t live without you, they needed you. This only served to further prove that thought.
