When Night Comes

Hopeful Dreams

Edited:

"Mom? Mom! Wake up!" My eyes shoot open and I sit up. I look around and see that I'm in a large abandoned building. I see a girl standing next to me.

She looked about my age but, she looked awfully familiar. She helped me stand and I continued to stare at her.

But, my stare was broken as I looked down at my stomach in panic..it was flat again. I began to breathe heavy and I looked at her.

"It's okay. Your baby is fine...in fact, you're looking at her." All the gears clicked in my head. Her eyes began to water and I brought her into a hug.

"My little girl.." I whisper, tears also in my eyes. When we pull away I examine her.

"How could this be? You're-"

"The same age as you..18...I've come to warn you.." she said. I tilted my head in confusion.

"You're in danger. So is dad, it just hasn't happened yet." She said.

"Why? What happens to us?" I ask her.

"Follow me.." I obey and look around as we walk through the halls.

"Where are we?" I ask.

"A abandoned hospital..aunt Rebekah used to work here..but, that's not what I wanted you to see. This...is what I wanted you to see." I turned my head and saw Klaus sitting in a chair, a red head tending to him.

My heart Lept and I walked closer.

"Who is that?" I ask.

"That's a witch that took the place of one of the harvest girls. She's got a past with Rebekah and Marcel. She's come back for revenge." I gulped and let my daughter lead me towards them.

"Why show me kindness?" I hear Klaus ask. She smiles and placed a hand on the side of his face. I felt my face grow red and I clenched my jaw in anger. I hear my daughter chuckle from beside me.

"You never did anything to me, and the truth is, seeing you like this, I can't help but pity you." She said.

"Then betray the others and stand with me. I will reward you, in ways you can't possibly fathom."

"Is your father simply incapable of not using his charm?" I ask. I look at my daughter who is cringing at the sight before me.

"Klaus Mikealson offering a deal go Lil ol' me? I should be flattered. But, first, we have to talk about your sister." She says getting grossly close to his lips.

My daughter and I walk towards them more and I lean against a counter beside the chair Klaus is in.

"Rebekah is of no concern to you. If you mean to harm her-"

"Ah, the protective brother. A shame that loyalty isn't reciprocated. But then, I'm no stranger to Rebekah's treachery. Something you and I have in common. Here, drink." She holds up a bowl of blood.

"I'm just trying to help you. Help you see the truth. Uncover what you haven't seen for almost a century."

He drank it quickly and waited only seconds before he felt something bad in his mouth. I began to feel it too.

I coughed and held my chest as it continued to burn. My daughter held my arm and rubbed my back.

"Your sister had an unfortunate run-in with werewolves last night. I imagine you're tasting the venom in her blood. It's the only way I can show you what you need to see."

I felt the feeling smooth itself down my chest after a couple minutes.

"In her weakened state I'll be able to guide her down memory lane. That's how I'm going to have my revenge. By showing you her betrayal."

I could see everything that he was seeing. Rebekah and Marcel sneaking around, Genevieve catching them being frisky around the deceased.

Yet she still continued to try and seduce Klaus. Her hands ran up his leg as he only stared at her in amusement.

I growled and clenched my fists.

"Dad always told me about how jealous you got. I never believed him until now." My daughter joked. I only rolled my eyes with a chuckle.

"I'm afraid to disappoint you, love. But, I've got a perfectly good shapeshifter with anger issues at home. You're plan to turn me against my sister and seduce me isn't quite working." I smiled proudly at his words. Genevieve only scoffed.

"Ah yes..the one holding your child. I'm sure she wouldn't mind. Considering she's in a magically induced coma right about now. It's very dangerous to imprint on someone with enemies." Klaus growled in anger towards her.

"You better not hurt her or ill-"

"You'll what? Kill me? Then you'll never know why or how to get her out of a coma." The witch said with a laugh.

I turned to my daughter and grabbed her gently.

"I must warn Elijah. He has to know." I tell her. She shakes her head, her eyes watering.

"I just want to be with you a little longer." She says. I tilt my head in confusion.

"I've only heard stories, seen pictures, I just want this a little longer." I grab her face gently, she leans into my touch and I feel myself growing sad.

"I love you. More then anything in the world. Your father does too. I don't know what happened to me, or why I can't see you but, I know that it'll work out. I'll do anything in my power to stay in your kids because I made a promise to give you a good life, and I won't break that promise." She let out a sob and hugged me tightly.

"You're my little piece of hope. The light through the darkness."

"I love you, mom." She said.

"I love you too, Hope."

I sat up with a gasp.
