CHP14 Elijah POV

ELIJAH POV

"How you feeling?" Elijah said to his little sister, Rebekah who was currently sat on her bed, drinking from the neck of a woman's throat.

Elijah saw the moment the girl died. All though since becoming a vampire, he had gotten used to the killing and the evil that came along with it, he still could never fully embrace his vampire heritage and clung towards humanity and doing what's honorable.

"I would be much better if you would let me leave." Rebekah said, throwing the girls body away and wiping her mouth with the back of her hand.

"Soon Rebekah." Elijah said trying to pacify his sister.

"And how many times have you said that." Rebekah said getting wound up. "Soon Rebekah. Not long now Rebekah. just be patient Rebekah." She finished sarcastically.

"Yes well it should be any day now. I give you my word sister." Elijah spoke truthfully.

Rebekah knew that when Elijah gave you his word, he truly believed in what he was saying, so she clamed down as best as she could and laid back down on her bed, presumably to sleep.

Elijah looked over his sister, concern all over his face. When he heard her heart beat slow he quickly entered to drag the dead girls body out which he did with as much respect as he could. Once he had gotten back out of the cell with the dead girl he locked the cell back up and left to dump the body where he had dumped Rebekah's food previously.

"The things I do for family." Elijah said with a sigh, dropping the girls body in the ocean as a present for the patroller of these waters to feast on human delicacy.

After delivering the body, he left back to where he was staying for the time being, a nice castle he had made, for visiting purposes after learning that his younger brother would be settling here for the time being.

Elijah washed himself up, with the expertise of a professional or someone who had many years of experience. He opened his closet, picking out the finest clothes available, all of course designed and fashioned by the most grandest of tailors. After appreciating himself in the mirror, he left to go and meet up with his brothers who had returned from Russia to discuss the next steps to curing Rebekah and the battle with Dalhia.

Before leaving to meet with his brothers though, he went back to Rebekah's cell to make sure she would be properly looked over and guarded by someone he could trust. He brought a book as well for Rebekah to keep her entertained and focused on something over than her illusions. When he saw 3 of his brothers trusted hybrids on guard he left with piece of mind knowing that they would keep her safe and protected.

With the swiftness and grace you would expect from an ancient vampire he arrived to where the Mikaelson brothers where to meet in under a few seconds not having wasted a single motion of his body.

"Brother, good to see you." He heard Klaus say as he entered the unfamiliar manor for the first time.

"As it is you." Elijah spoke. He looked around for the rest of his brothers not seeing Kol or Finn so he asked. "And the other?"

"Here soon, hopefully." Klaus spoke, waving his brother in.

Elijah followed, mapping the place out in his mind, curiously he could sense any one else in the building so he asked Niklaus along the way. "Aurora will she not be joining us?"

"I'm afraid not, she will be unable to join, she has things to do." Klaus said to his brother

They arrived at the gathering area of the place. Klaus a seat next to a window, with only clouds in sight. Elijah sat down across from his brother as they awaited their brothers to arrive.

"How's Rebekah doing?" Klaus asked as he lounged into his seat. Elijah on the other hand had impeccable posture, after it being ingrained in him heavily as he lived as a noble in Europe.

"She's as well as can be for the moment." He answered. Klaus swiftly replied. "As mad as ever then."

After a few more moments of discussion, they both heard Kol and Finn bickering as they arrived at the manor.

Klaus promptly arrived at the front door, Elijah not far behind him, opening the door to see Kol and Finn arguing as they always had even since they were both children.

All of the Mikaelson brother exchanged pleasantries before heading back to the lounge area to discuss their problems.

"We've got a siphon witch." Kol said with suspenseful tone.

Elijah waited for the but and he didn't wait to long.

"But," Fin added side eyeing Kol. "Her coven were unwilling to let her leave willingly,"

Kol quickly finished before Finn could saying. "So we kidnapped her... and now, the girls being a little brat about it."

Him and Klaus both looked at Kol in surprise, to which Kol saw replying, "Your lucky she's still alive. If Rebekah wasn't on the line I would have ripped that girls throat out by now."

Klaus tried not laugh but he couldn't stop the smile that came across his face. All though he himself did find it quite amusing he was thankful that his brothers had worked together to all help their younger sister.

"And where is this girl now?" Klaus asked, not having seen the girl.

"Ill go get her now." Kol said, "I'll be one moment." He vanished but not for long he arrived back holding the girls body from behind as she grabbed ahold of Kol's arm to try and siphon his power.

Kol quickly shook the girl off, of him saying, "See what i mean, the girl doesn't no when to quit."

The sight was amusing to all of his brothers. Usually Kol was the one being irritating, so to see him getting annoyed was an entertaining sight to behold.

The girl screamed in anger, "STUPID VAMPIRES IM GOING TO KILL ALL OF YOU!!"

Klaus clearly didn't like the message as he menacingly spoke, "Watch your tone girl, we could easily just turn you into one of us ,if you don't cooperate.

The girls anger seemed to rise after hearing his brothers words saying, "ABOMINATIONS THE LOT OF YOU, YOU DARE TO THREATEN ME I'LL KILL YOU! ILL KILL YOU!"

The girl finally shut up after Klaus entered her mind and sending her body to sleep.

"ILL TOLD YOU." Kol said, "The girl is trouble, the sooner we heal Rebekah the sooner i can kill the girl."

"The girl's not the problem." Finn added, "Maybe the fact that we kidnapped her is."

Elijah agreed with Finn's logic but obviously that's not what Kol wanted to hear so he said. "Shut up Finn, your not helping."

Finn ignored his youngest brother, use to him after all these years.

"Should we turn her?" Klaus said, after presumably poking around in the girls mind.

"A witch/vampire hybrid." Elijah said in though, "Would she be compellable?" he asked Niklaus who had already been in her mind.

"I think so. I'm not sure for how long though. She might be able to siphon it off." Klaus answered.

"Well she's not going to cooperate as she is now is she." Kol added

"I'm sure she must want something we could give her as incentive." Finn said

They all thought for a few moments, coming to the decision to first try and bargain with the girl and if she was uncooperative, trying compulsion.

The girl woke with seemingly none of the anger she had before. "Whats's going on? Why am i not angry anymore? Who are you people?" She said getting more and more unsettled as she rattled of questions.

Elijah decided to take lead, as he was the most compassionate and trustworthy of the Originals.

"What's going on is we need your help, the reason your not angry anymore is because my brother here," he pointed to Klaus, "has dampened your emotions for the time being so we can discuss without all that unnecessary anger. And thirdly me and my brothers here are the vampires, the very first ones."

The girl processed what Elijah said getting worried that someone had been in her head and dread filling her stomach when she heard the last part. The Originals are legends. Her coven had always taught her that if you saw one to either run or it was to late, they would kill you without mercy. All though she knew they were probably exaggerated myths she couldn't help but think over them, dreading if she was going to be killed.

Klaus adopted an amused face. He had been listening in on her thoughts and the types of stories she had been told of the Originals where ridiculous. The most ridiculous had to be the story that The Originals were humans that had made a bargain with the Devil in exchange for their souls. Of course he couldn't be alone in his humor sending the thoughts across to Kol who had a nice mental chuckle in response.

Elijah looked at the girl realizing he didn't even know her name. "What's your name girl?" He asked being as gentle as he could with his words.

"Leah.." She answered uncertain as to if Elijah's kindness was an act.

"Well Leah, like I said early we need your help." Elijah said, "If you were to help us we would be eternally grateful and would be willing to pay it back tenfold."

"Seriously? You need my help? I though you guys were the strongest in the world." Leah said in disbelief, finally looking into Elijah's eyes as she spoke.

"Yes we are but not all problems can be solved with strength Leah, sometimes you need other expertise." Elijah said beginning to feel her get more comfortable speaking to him.

"And i would be rewarded?" She asked to make sure she hadn't been mistaken

"Yes, anything you desire." Elijah replied, "We are not truly evil, if you help us will we will help you."

Leah looked around in disbelief not being able to believe that these monsters the very first ones at that were offering their services, which in the supernatural world meant everything.

"I'm willing, if you will let me go back to my coven and also promise to protect my families line for as long as both lines live." She finally decided, getting back some of her early confidence.

Elijah looked around at his brothers reading their body language for their reactions. Finn was undeterred by the request, Klaus was seemingly not bothered and Kol at first looked like his was going to interject, presumably wanted to have killed the girl but he stopped after Klaus spoke into his mind, reminding him that Rebekah was more important than a petty squabble.

Seeing his brothers come to a unanimous agreement he agreed to the girls terms and they finally headed to Rebekah to heal her. With Leah not having the durability to travel at such high speeds, one of the brothers would have to shepherd her along, so Elijah after having built some trust decided to be the one to guide her.

He and the the girl arrived at Klaus's underground space. Leah looked around the placed amazed making Elijah realize that she was just a young girl who had probably never seen the world before. Guilt did start do well up inside of him but he quickly defeated the feeling by remembering why he was doing this. This was for his family and nothing was more important.

They met back up with the rest of his siblings and headed over to Rebekah's cell, telling Leah what she needed to do.

"What if she tries to kill her?" Kol said unhelpfully, putting the image into the girls head.

Elijah seeing the distress on the girls face quickly said, "We will all be there, if she tries anything she want stand a chance against all of us combined." This did serve to relax Leah, when she realized that they would be there with her.

When he finished speaking to the girl he quickly sent the thought into Kol's head, "Are you trying to scare the girl brother?" He said coldly.

Kol quickly sent the though back after realizing Elijah was upset and not wanting to be on his bad side, "Nothing of the sort brother. You know how i am sometimes, i just speak my mind."

Kol's reply did calm his noblest brother down after he realized what he said was true, so he give his youngest brother a nod to apologize.

While they was speaking Klaus had opened the door to the cell, "Both of you come." He said speaking to Elijah and Kol. Both Finn and Leah had already entered with Leah stood behind Finn as Finn kept an eye of Rebekah for any sign of movement.

The 2 brothers entered, and they both walked across to Rebekah watching out for an attack. Finn kept guard of Leah as the 3 other brothers grabbed ahold of Rebekah, as she darted up in surprise, hearing them enter.

"LEAVE!! HOW COULD YOU!!!!" She started to scream, jumping up to attack Klaus Infront of her, thinking it was Alexander her now dead ex boyfriend.

Both Kol and Elijah grabbed ahold of Rebekah, holding her down against the bed trying to get through past her madness by trying to remind her that it was her brothers.

"BRING THE GIRL ACROSS." Klaus shouted towards Finn, holding the thrashing vampire down, being kicked in the process.

"Just get it over with." Kol spoke, "She's not in her right mind."

Finn brought the girl across. When the 3 brothers had finally managed to stop Rebekah from trashing around, they let Leah grab ahold of Rebekah and she started to drain the curse away.

Leah finally managed to drain the whole of the curse after a couple of minutes, now she was ballooned up on Qetsiyah magic. Know she had all this magic she was tempted to try and kill the Originals but she had no confidence she would leave alive and was hoping they would honor their pact.

Rebekah's madness faded away and she finally realized who was holding her down. She whispered in exhaustion, "Kol? Elijah? Niklaus? Finn?" She passed out but not before smiling in joy at the fact her brother were all there to support her.

They left Rebekah's body to rest, deciding that Kol would be the one to go and fetch her some blood. Elijah thanked Leah for her help, "Thank you Leah. When your ready we will take you back to your coven."

"Yeah.." She said exhausted herself, "I need some rest first and some proper food."

"Of course." Elijah said with an amused smile on his face.

He led the girl to a spare room in Klaus's house, after making sure with his brother that it was fine and left her to rest, while he went to get her some human food. On his way out he said to the hybrid that was manning the place, "Keep an eye on her." He said assertively. Although his brothers hybrids were loyal mainly to him, they could also be commanded by an Original as long as it wasn't something that would harm his brother.

Elijah asked around to find out where his siblings where. He learned that Klaus had went to spend time with his wife and daughter. Kol had returned with blood for Rebekah and of course some for himself and Finn had left back to Sage.

So that left him to deal with Leah. 'He needed a break' he thought. 'But no... Dalhia. Well after that then, I'm going to take the longest break imaginable.' He though comforting himself with the idea.
