THOUGHTS.

MEMORIES.

They flew at her.

Attacked her mind viciously.

Memories of another person.

Someone that was not her, but now appeared to be.

A pain became apparent in her chest before it dissipated entirely.

Previously dead Ravenna Mikaelson sat up with a gasp. Her delirious state was calmed by strong hands gripping her shoulders.

"Sister? Are you alright?"

Ravenna looked up and was slightly taken aback. In front of her stood Daniel Gillies looking at her worriedly. She glanced around the room seeing coffins around it with his co-stars drinking out of blood bags.

"Ravenna?" If she could recall her name was Ravenna but it was no longer Ravenna Hart. 

"Yes. Yes, I'm alright," Ravenna nodded. He took her hand and helped her out of her confinement. She looked back at it and tentatively touched near her heart. She sighed a shaky breath before looking up at her brother then at her other siblings. She internally cursed whatever god was out there but thanked them at the same time.

Kol bounded up to her with a happy smile. He tackled her in a hug and spun her around. He started chatting on and on about things she had no clue about, before shoving a blood bag into her hands.

"What's going on?"

"Elijah let us out of our coffins and now we're going to scare Nik," he replied excitedly. By this time Elijah had gone back into the room Klaus was in.

Kol looked up before speeding into the room. The body-snatcher sighed. She remembered the original Ravenna's life. She was known to be the most impulsive.

She was given this new life and now she was going to act it. She entered the room, dragging the tip of her finger across a wooden table, leaving a trail of fire in its wake. Klaus looked at her with wide eyes.

"Ravenna..."

"Do you know what it feels like? To be stuck in that thing. In excruciating pain. All alone. It's enough to send someone mad," Ravenna looked up from the burning line on the table towards her brother.

"I'm sorry," Klaus breathed, "You were going mad sister. I didn't want to lose you." The first, well in truth second, Mikaelson was always muttering about things after their transition.

Ravenna scoffed. She wasn't going mad. It was just that she was hearing every thought of everything in sight distance. She could even now hear the thoughts of her siblings that were onlookers to the situation. She had never told anyone of this.

When she was younger, the real Ravenna wasn't able to do proper magic, she could only siphon it. Esther feared that her child would be shunned by society and had her wear a spelled bracelet. The bracelet was worn when she died and had somehow messed with the immortality spell. This resulted in her hearing the thoughts of others.

"I wasn't going mad, brother." She dug into his mind and what she heard made her heartbreak.

She's going to leave like everyone else

Ravenna scrutinized her brother for a moment before taking a step towards him and engulfing him in a hug, "No matter how mad I am at you, I will never leave you Nik. You are my little brother and I love you more than words. "She could feel him sag in relief.

From her original memories, she realised that Klaus was the person she was closest to. Mainly due to the fact that they both weren't Mikael's children and were full siblings. Ravenna guessed that this made her a tribrid as she was a werewolf. a witch and a vampire.

The door flew open and Esther walked in. Ravenna rolled her eyes parting from Klaus and standing to the side. She thought about everything the woman had done, what she was about to do to her own children and she was disgusted.

She zoned out of the conversation but blinked when the rest of the family finished hugging their mother. Esther waited patiently for her daughter to greet her but only got a scoff in return.

Ravenna brushed past her mother, purposely bumping her shoulder. She waltzed out of the room and upstairs. She opened doors to find herself an appropriate bedroom before deciding on the one furthest away from the staircase.

She placed a silencing spell on the room and sat on the floor. She chanted silently and was sucked into the oblivion of her mind.
