23 Next Step Of Evolution

There are two aspects of Divinity.

First is the rule, or concept, or domain, whatever you want to call it.

Second is energy. More specifically, divine energy related to that concept.

Divinity is what makes a God. The concept, or rule exists in their very soul, while energy related to that same concept exists within their bodies.

In some cases, this energy is the quantum foundation of their very existence, while their soul is the living embodiment of their rule, or concept.

In Kol's case, he has two rules. Power, and Blood.

Power doesn't just means strength, but energy in general. All forms of energies. While Blood is self explanatory.

However, Kol is not completely a God yet, but a Demi-God, because his Divinity comes from the Power Stone. It flows through his body and soul through the blood of Darkseid flowing in his veins.

His soul is merely CONNECTED to the Power Stone, which is the physical embodiment of the concept of Power. This concept doesn't exist in his soul yet.

Just like the Demi-Gods in 'Percy Jackson' world.

His Divinity of Blood on the other hand exists in his Hybrid blood. Which again, is not in his soul.

So if we go back a bit, we can see that Power Stone is connected to his soul by his self created spell, "life and soul concept".

According to the conditions of this spell, the more times he dies, the stronger the connection of his soul with Power Stone will become.

Which means, the more times he dies, the closer will he come to becoming an actual God.

It was like the apocalypse had happened in this area, ten miles around the hospital building. Debris of half destroyed buildings were everywhere.

In fact, that hospital building was the only place left unscathed, because both Kol and Lucifer avoided fighting there.

Kol because of Constantine and Angela, and Lucifer because he didn't want the apocalypse to begin.

Mammon hadn't given up yet. He was still inside Angela's body and hadn't gone back to Hell even after Lucifer showed up.

However, Mammon still didn't dare to use the spear of destiny to complete the ritual. Because he was scared.

He needed a chance, some breathing room when Lucifer wasn't paying attention. And destroying this building would give him exactly that.

On a road filled with craters and debris of nearby buildings and crushed vehicles.

Lucifer grabbed Kol's half unconscious, badly beaten body from the ground, and lifted him up by the neck.

Kol looked to be in a critical condition. Badly bruised and broken in more than one place. His left arm was completely gone, along with his right leg.

Anyone else would be dead in this state, but Kol was healing at a visible rate.

Bleeding had stopped already, and crystals had already started forming on his missing limbs. They would regenerate in a few minutes.

Lucifer spoke, "You know, I just wanted to take you as a part of my collection, but...", then he looked around, indicating at the destruction in the area.

And continued, "You're quite persistent. I've already killed you thrice, yet you manage to come back by means even I cannot see through.", here he paused, and looked puzzled. Seemingly thinking about something.

Then he continued, "Even your soul only reverts back to within your own body when you die. It's quite fascinating. If I didn't have somewhere else to be, I would really like to keep you around as a pet.", in a playful tone, but frustration apparant in his eyes.

First time, Lucifer used his vector manipulation to implode Kol's body. Second time he used pure telekinetic energy to disintegrate his body into atoms.

And third time he simply teleported him into space and used a super powerful energy attack that lasted for full ten minutes.

As Lucifer was talking, Kol suddenly broke free, and, "BOOMMM!!", he punched Lucifer in the face using his other hand, "ROARR", and roared angrily in pure defiance.

This was the path he had chosen for himself, long before he met those omnipotent beings who gave him a second chance.

For this reason, he gave up his humanity. For this same reason, when he died and found himself in Hell, he took a step forward instead of turning back.

Even though he missed being human more than anything in the world, he never sought for a way to turn back.

Kol would only walk forward, and never turn back or remain stagnant.

Only, for him, walking forward meant fighting and dying.

There was no easy way. His biology and soul were perfect, with limitless potential for growth, and could no longer be improved by experiments or spells.

In response to his meaningless struggle, "He! He! He! He!", Lucifer laughed creepily.

And continued, "Let's see if you can survive this next attack. In fact, if you do, I will let you go free. An unkillable abomination running free around the world. He! He! He! I'M THE DEVIL OF MY WORD! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!", laughing loudly even as blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

Then, Lucifer unfurled his wings. His pure white Angel wings were covered in an aura of divine light. They were much more beautiful than Gabriel's wings.

As soon as his wings came out, scenery changed behind Lucifer. A dimensional gateway opened. The door to Hell, Lucifer's territory.

Afterwards, inexhaustible dimensional energy of Hell mixed with the pure light energy from Lucifer's wings and bombarded Kol in the face at full force.

It was just like how Lucifer used it in the movie, except this time he added his light energy into the mix, to use these two opposing forces to create a phenomena of pure destruction.

And when this phenomena came into being, Kol was right in the middle of it.

The world became silent for a few seconds, before the whole of New York city was engulfed in a bright light.

It lasted for a few minutes, and when it passed, there was nothing left.

The hospital building stood in the middle of a giant crater that used to be New York city, and Lucifer stood outside the building, looking at a purple gem, floating in the air in front of him.

This wasn't the first time. The same thing also happened when he killed Kol before.

Only this time, he reached out and grabbed it in his palm, and sealed it up before it could do its magic and resurrect Kol again.

The Power Stone, that was the physical manifestation of the very concept of Power, dimmed down for the first time since it came to exist.

However, not long after, Lucifer's palm started feeling hot. He started feeling the strain on the seal he put on Power Stone.

It started glowing brighter and brighter, and started to vibrate more and more.

Until finally, "BOOOMM!!, AAHHHHH!!", a highly concentrated, highly destructive energy was released from Power Stone.

The sky lit up for the second time. This time purple.

The crater that was the New York city became even bigger.

This energy that contained the very concept of power, exploded inside Lucifer's palm, and it reduced him to ashes in an instant.

Every time Kol died, he became stronger, but he deliberately restraint his strength to what it was in the beginning of this fight, so Lucifer wouldn't find out that he was help making Kol stronger.

However, now there was no need to continue with this masquerade. Because Kol had already achieved his goal.

"The Spell Of Life And Soul Concept" had evolved to the third stage.

Now the Power Stone and Kol's soul were completely linked together. It was impossible to seperate them from one another. Even if Lucifer's father came down to give it a try, he wouldn't succeed.

Kol could now use all the abilities of Power Stone, to the fullest extent.

Now both Kol and Lucifer were dead.

But not for long.

A few seconds later, Kol was once again revived through Power Stone. And Lucifer could manipulate reality, time and space to his will, so he came back not long after.

.

Lucifer was really the devil of his word. He left soon after he was revived.

Then the citywide crater was engulfed into a bright light as everything was restored back to normal. All the buildings were restored and all the people were revived.

It was like the fight between Lucifer and Kol never happened, like it was all just an illusion, like time turned back.

However, Kol, Constantine, and everyone who were directly involved in the incident still remembered everything that happened.

It was unclear HOW it all happened, but Kol suspected that it was Lucifer's father.

Because even in the movie, God did intervene in the end, in order to prevent Lucifer from dragging Constantine's soul to Hell.

God here was everything that was described in the Bible, and he loved humanity. So how could he just sit back and watch an entire city being destroyed like that?

It would be different if it was just mortals destroying each other, because God was all about free will, but the fight between Lucifer and Kol had nothing to do with "free will".

So he intervened in the end and restored everything back to normal, like it was before the fight began.

On the other hand, soon after the fight, Kol healed Constantine by feeding him his blood.

As the Demi-God of blood, he could choose which properties of his blood he wanted to transfer, and since he had some vampire traits, his blood could also heal others if he wanted it to.

In fact, unlike other vampires, Kol's blood could even heal cancer. That meant that Constantine, who had later stages of lung cancer, wouldn't die anymore.

One year after the incident.

"Kol, tell me something. Why did you fight Lucifer? There was no need for you to risk everything. You could've died. Or worse!", Isabel asked Kol.

He replied, "For evolution. Everyone needs a purpose. A reason to keep them going. Some people devote their whole lives to making money, some want power, so they pursue their careers, and some just want a normal life, so they seek happiness.", then paused as if remembering something.

And then continued, "I'm all about adventure, but I cannot devote my whole life to that. I am immortal. An eternal being. I need something more. And evolution is the fundamental reason for existence. Time is always flowing, world is ever changing, and evolution is forever happening.".

Currently, Kol and Isabel were sitting inside Kol's office, in the New York branch of M-Corp, a company that Kol founded.

This was the DC movies universe and Kol knew that he would be coming here quite often, so he needed to make a reputation for himself, along with a base, assets, and a regular source of abundant funds to make life easier.

This was still 2005, so it was easy to make money. Facebook was still not a thing here, not to mention touch screen mobile phones.

For Kol, who had most of the knowledge of Kryptonian science and technology, inventing these little trinkets was an easy thing to do.

But he wouldn't be able to see it to the end. Which was why he needed Isabel.

Skills can be learnt, knowledge can be transferred, experience would come with time, and Kol could even grant talent. But the most important thing was loyalty.

He needed someone he could trust to handle everything, and he knew exactly what kind of person Isabel was. He knew that he could trust her.

Which was why, first he taught her telepathy, which came easy for her because of being a psychic AND a half-breed. Then he implanted all the necessary knowledge related to various advance disciplines of science and technologies, directly into her mind.

These little things would help Isabel "invent" things in the future, and telepathy would help her manage the company as the C.E.O.

"But I'm sure there are other ways to evolve, to get stronger. Why go against the devil? You even ended up destroying the city. What would you do if everything wasn't restored back to normal in the end?", Isabel asked back.

Kol turned to look at her and replied, "That's the thing. From the very beginning, I knew that everything would be restored back to normal. I was sure of it.", here he paused.

Then continued, "And I don't know if there's an other way, but if I do nothing, it would make me stagnant. Every person seek for something. They desire something. And many try and work hard to get it.", here he paused.

And continued, "But there are also those people who simply sit back and wait for something to happen. To everything to just fall to their lap. They try nothing, because they've given up on life. They are ok with their status quo. We call them 'otakus'. And I am no such person. If I want something, I reach out to get it.".

A few months after this conversation, Kol retrieved his locator, which also served as a wrist watch, from the surface of the moon, where he had hidden it, and used it to send a signal to his original world, the vampire diaries world.

The events of Dark Knight Trilogy would take place in a few years in this world, but Kol had no interest in it, so it was better to just leave this world for a few years.

Not long after, he was engulfed in a bright hot ball of energy that disintegrated all of his belongings except for the locator, and pulled him back towards his original world.

- Legacies 2018

In a parallel world to Kol's original world, where the events of "Vampire Diaries", and "The Originals" happened exactly the same way they were supposed to happen according to the show.

- Just before the end of "Vampire Diaries" plot, Kai Parker tries to kill everyone at Alaric's and Josette's wedding, and succeeds in killing almost everyone, including the pregnant Josette.

However, just before her death, Josette casts a spell onto herself and Caroline, that transfers her unborn twin babies into Caroline's womb.

So, at the end of The Vampire Diaries, Caroline and Alaric are left to raise their twin babies, who later become Josie and Lizzie in "The Legacies".

Stefan sacrifices himself and dies, Damon and Elena become humans and start living a normal life, Bonnie is off travelling the world, trying to live a happy life like she promised her dead boyfriend, Enzo.

Matt becomes the sheriff of Mystic Falls and Jeremy becomes a mercenary for hire who help people with supernatural abilities from being hunted down by hunters.

- At the end of The Originals plot, except for Kol, Hope and Marcel, all the Originals die. And Rebekah takes the cure for vampirism, turn mortal, and then dies.

Now, the storyline of "The Legacies" is about Josie, Lizzie, Hope and all the other supernatural children who goes to the boarding school that was founded specifically for the children with supernatural abilities.

And Alaric Saltzman is the principal of "The Salvatore School for the Young and Gifted".

.

If one possesses the werewolf gene, then as long as they cause someone's death, even if indirectly and accidentally, their werewolf gene activates and they become a werewolf.

Rafael Waithe and Landon Kirby were two seventeen year old orphans, who were later adopted. Future was looking good for them.

But when Rafael accidentally activated the werewolf gene, he didn't know what was happening, and his family thought that he was possessed by the devil, so they took him to the church for exorcism.

Unfortunately, they chose a night of the full moon to do it.

Thankfully, Alaric Saltzman and Hope Mikaelson came to the rescue and chained down Rafael before he could transform completely into the wolf form due to full moon and cause a massacre.

Currently, Alaric, Hope and Landon were in the principal's office of "The Salvatore School for the Young and Gifted".

[Images]

Alaric was questioning Landon about Rafael, asking why his werewolf gene was activated, whose death did he cause and whether it was intentional.

After a while of repeated questioning, Landon stood up and replied, "His girlfriend! Cassie. Last month. He was driving, it was a storm and he took a turn too fast.", here he paused.

Then continued, "Then he started acting out. At first I thought it was just grief. Then, maybe drugs or something. And then he threw a 200 pound lawnmower 50 feet across the yard.", and paused.

Then continued, "That was when our foster parents called in the priest. I guess they thought he was possessed by the devil.".

After listening to this story, Alaric replied, "All of that is consistent with a newly triggered wolf. It's normal. Thank you for sharing that Landon.".

Then he guestured at Hope, "Hope?", to go comfort Landon, who looked a bit down after sharing the story.

So Hope went to Landon, looked at him in the eyes and spoke, "Everything is gonna be ok. I promise.", in a very convincing and comforting tone.

Then she shouted at the door, "We are ready.".

And someone opened the door, "Click!", and walked in.

Then Alaric stood up and introduced, "Landon Kirby, this is Milton Greasley!".

And Milton spoke embarrassingly, "C'mon! Dr. Saltzman.".

With a name like 'Milton Greasley', it was understandable why he was embarrassed.

Alaric replied, "Right! MG! I'm sorry. Take it from a guy named Alaric, I get it.".

Then he turned towards Landon and continued, "Landon, MG is my student aide.".

"He is also a vampire.", Hope interjected from the side.

"Of course he is!", Landon commented sarcastically.

Then he asked, "You know, for a school with a secret to keep, you're kind of liberal with your information.".

Alaric looked at him and replied, "Well, we don't actually intend for you to remember any of it.".

Then, Milton walked forward, put a hand on Landon's shoulder, looked at him in the eyes, and began to compel him, "Forget everything you've seen or learned since last night. All you need to know is that your friend has found a home where he can live a better life. You'll miss him, but you know it's for the best.".

Compulsion was an ability of vampires. It was like minor telepathy, but it only worked through eye contact.

However, against everyone's expectations, it didn't work on Landon.

He slapped MG's hand away, and shouted angrily, "Are you people out of your mind? How can I forget any of this!".

"MG did you do it right?", Hope asked at the same time.

Just at this time, before MG could reply, or before Landon could continue with his meaningless protest.

"BOOM!", with a loud boom, a big, bright ball of light suddenly appeared out of nowhere in the middle of the room.

______________________________________________________

So instead of going home, Kol accidentally crash landed into a parallel world, where "Kol" is still the original "Kol" and the stories of TVD and Originals are already over.

Because of his interference, the plot of "The Legacies", will never happen in Kol's world, so this was the only way I could think of.
