18. One Way Or Another
It was now morning and Aria was now driving her and Kol, still in Marty's body, to Memphis where Valerie had managed to track Kol's body.
Aria looked towards Kol, she smiled seeing him asleep, but then concern took over, when she realised Kol could be asleep, or he could be dead, "Kol?!" Aria called, shaking Kol's shoulder, "Kol!?".
"Ugh" Kol groaned, slowly waking up, making Aria breathe a sigh of relief, "What happened?".
"You fell asleep after puking blood all over Ric's car, which we're going have to pay and get cleaned up" Aria realised, "Oh, since you said everything hurt, I stopped at a pharmacy and got you all the medications I could get", Aria grabbed the plastic bag from the backseat and handed it over to Kol.
"Thanks" Kol said, "By the way, where are we?".
"We are on our way to Memphis" Aria informed, "Valerie managed to track down your real body, Ric and Damon are going to meet us there".
"How the bloody hell did my body end up in Memphis of all places?" an annoyed Kol asked.
"He managed to trick Damon" Aria informed.
"Of course" Kol mumbled, suddenly puking out more blood into the bag Aria got him.
"Oh god" Aria whispered, "Damon was right when he said there's no way I can take you to Memphis like this".
"What are you doing?" a confused Kol asked, seeing Aria park the car on the side.
"Calling 911" Aria informed, pulling her phone out of her pocket and dialing 911.
"911, what's your emergency?".
"Ri, I can't go to a hospital" Kol protested, "Marty Hammond got drunk off his ass and ended up crashing a bus full of kids, there's a freaking manhunt going on for him".
"Which is why I'm not taking you to the hospital" Aria assured, "We just need an ambulance".
"You're kidding right?" Kol asked.
"Nope" Aria said, "Kol Mikaelson, you're now going to Memphis in an ambulance, so just sit back and relax".
***
"Don't judge" Aria said stepping out of the ambulance, as Damon and Alaric walked over to her, "The other medications weren't working on him so I compelled those two paramedics to make sure Marty stays alive, and while they do that, us three are on hunting down that sociopath duty and once we do that I will jam Kol's soul back into his body and we will all be on our mary way, got it?".
"You haven't done magic in years" Alaric reminded Aria, confusing Damon, "Are you sure you're going to be able to do this?".
"I have to Ric, for Kol" Aria stated.
"Why haven't you done magic in years?" Damon asked curiously.
"Long story" Aria simply said.
"I have time" Damon assured, wanting to know what was going on with Aria.
"Well I don't" Aria snapped, she then turned back to Alaric, "What did Valerie find out about the vampire in Kol's body?".
