Season 4 Hayley Marshall and Klaus Mikaelson's twin daughters

Episode 9-Queen Death

The next day in an Abandoned Shack, Elijah with the thorn stake sticking out of his back, lays on the floor in a circle made out of sticks.

Elijah is trying to remove the shake but fails to remove it.

Sofya/The Hollow approaches the circle and says. Such a will to live. Wouldn't it be easier to give in? To simply let go? Part of you must crave that peace. The silence of the nothing that lasts forever.

Why don't you come a little closer... and we'll find it together. Elijah said weakly.

You'll have enough company. When you die, so, too, does your entire sire line. [Her eyes glow blue for a couple seconds.] The great sacrifice that will return me to flesh and blood. All I need now is the last of my remains for the ritual. Sofya/The Hollow said

She looks over at the table with three of the bones she already has.

Your family has done the job of finding them, and they should be coming to me soon enough. Sofya/The Hollow said

You can't expect to torment my family and survive. Elijah said

I survived far worse fates than your family. I say let them come. They will try to save you from the poison coursing through your veins, and in doing so, they will give me what I want. And as a reward for their efforts, I will let your family watch as you finally die. Sofya/The Hollow said

She turns the stake in Elijah's back even deeper inside.

Elijah screams in agony.

Minutes later, the Hollow is standing outside when a car pulls up. Three of her followers walk out of the car.

You've come early. Good. Sofya/The Hollow said

We're eager to serve. Nathaniel said

And your covens? Sofya/The Hollow asked

More witches join us every day. They now know they're either with us or against us. Nathaniel said

The followers kneel down on the ground in front of the Hollow.

You New Orleans witches have been weak. Finally, you have a chance to shed that fraily, just as I will shed this frail form. My rebirth will herald a new day to all who swear allegiance to me. Sofya/The Hollow said

She walks over to a tree with her symbol of the snake eating it's own tail on it.

Only a few final details remain. Sofya/The Hollow said

At the compound in Hayley's room, she wakes up to find out that Elijah isn't sleeping beside her.

Hayley is wondering where he is.

Downstairs in the the Abattoir, Klaus has a spread of pastries on the table for his daughters.

Now, you can't call yourself a connoisseur if you have not sampled each and every one of these. Hmm? Here. Klaus said

He gives Hope and Faith a beignet, they each take a bite.

Mmm. It's so good! Hope said

I love it. Faith said

Did I ever tell you the story of my first beignet? Klaus asked with a smile.

Hope and Faith shake their heads.

No? You girls are in for a treat. [He smiles and takes Hope and Faith off his lap to stand, spinning them softly around to place them down. Hope and Faith chuckle. Klaus started to paces as he told the story.] Long ago, three French nuns came to New Orleans looking for a fresh start. And they came here. They marched right into our courtyard, and they presented your Uncle Elijah and me [He walks over to them and takes one of the beignets] with these rather lumpy-looking, sugar-coated pastries. Well, needless to say, we were entranced. We set them up quite well. Klaus said
