The Fox Doppelganger TVD

Elijah watched as his brother order around people to clean their old home so they can move in. Marcel brought Davina to live in the compound as part of goodwill to his now leader. Klaus.

Davina is of course not happy with this new development and feels like the tool they will fight for and then toss it among themselves depending on the winner.

"It's best if he is not given any reason to turn hostile. D, I promise this is for your safety."

"Oh? Then you think it is best I live under the same roof with the man that made you bleed a while ago? That is safety according to you? The oldest unique creature with a blood lust of a vampire and a temper of a warewolf is a safe place to keep a teenager with authority issues? Are you crazy or am I crazy for hearing such absurd words?"

Marcel visibly deflated "Now that you say it like that. Try not to antagonize him D."

"That's your answer? For me to behave?" She lifted her hands and Marcel is teleported and smashed outside the opposite room's wall and fell to the ground with a loud crash.

Marcel looked at the place he ended up in and the tightly shut door in front of him and marveled at Davina's growth. He smiled and walked to the door only for his smile to be wiped off his face when he sees Klaus looking at him incredulously.

"She tosses you with her mind and you smile like a fool? Am I missing something?" Klaus looked curious but Marcel just walked passed him. He won't tell him that he is happy that Davina is stronger.

"What attitude is that?" Klaus gets on his face with an annoyed expression.

"What do you want? Do you need me to kneel and begg for your permission to leave or you have a ring for me to kiss before I excuse myself?" Marcel asked with a dark expression.

Klaus frowns seeing the other man is not repented.

"You won the battle and you have my allegiance. Thats it, that all we are. Don't delute yourself into thinking we are buddies now. You don't have my loyalty that is something a leader earns."

"But you have no idea how to earn it, you know how I know? Because you taught me many things but you never taught me how to get what I had here before you showed up. Friendship. The kind of people who would die for you because they love you, because they respect you. You will NEVER have that."

Klaus stepped aside and let him leave. Marcel went to have a drink at the family bar. He found Rebekah flirting with Mikel the wolf. With growing irritation, he took an entire bottle and moved a distance.

"A little harsh no?" Mikel looked at Marcel with intrigue.

"Mind your own business." Marcel drank a sip and faced another direction.

"You're not still angry about that little death aura incident are you?" Mikel seemed surprised.

"What do you think?" Marcel narrowed his eyes.

"God you're so good looking. Especially when angered. May I interest you in a devil's three some?" Mikel put on a charming smile. Rebekah choked on her drink.

Her mind is full of pictures, Marcel is naked andkissing an equally naked Mikel. The background music is sensual....she glared at the glass in her hand thinking this is why she is hallucinating.

"No thanks. You're right about the devil part though." Marcel drank a big sip.

"Ouch...you know, I came here to make friends with you and this is how you treat me. You are really Klaus Mikelson's offspring. So heartless."

"Don't flatter him mate, Marcel is just a runt brother picked off the streets when he was bored one day. He's not one of us." Kol said from the door.

Marcel's mood got worse if that is even possible. Kol took the bottle from Marcel's hand and poured himself a drink.

Marcel is about to leave when Mikel said something odd. "You're wrong you know. He has a friend. Maybe not the kind that will die for him but I will go to war....maybe not for him but with him. I'll have his back." Mikel said beating his chest.

"Hahaha..." Marcel laughed like he heard the funniest joke in the world. When everyone turned to look at him in question he wiped the tears off his eyes and looked at Mikel with pity.

"He is not your friend. He is only letting you jump around him long enough for him to find your weakness. That one thing that can destroy you so that he will be rid of you forever.

He is not your friend...he is no one's friend because that would mean letting people in, caring for them and ket them care for him. No, he can not stand such weakness. He will tolerate you, and when yipu get comfortable and let down your guard, when you show your belly in complete trust, he will gut you and leave your innered hanging for your other friends to find.

You know how I know? Because that is what he taught me. Hehe...friends. Hahaha."

The people in the room looked at Marcel not knowing what to make of his statement. The only one not at all affected by this is Mikel, he keeps flirting with Rebekah. Just then...

The house shook. Marcel got up and sped to Davina's room and found her kneeling on the bed Nicklaus standing by the door surrounded by art equipment scattered on the ground in pieces.

"That wasn't very nice. Perhaps you are not aware of your predicament." Klaus said in a threatening tone but Davina just scoffed.

"Oh I'm well aware. You're the sad little man who can't get anyone to love you so you impregnate teenagers and kidnap children. How utterly disgraceful of a man who has lived a thousand years to be reduced to playing footsie with the children." Davina said with mockery.

Marcel is shocked by her demeanor. He had expected her to be scared for her life if she ever come across Klau but it seems he had underestimated her.

She looked Klaus in the eyes and delivered painful words with a calm voice. She is not angry and shouting like a child like how she behaved in front him.

Klaus closed the door behind him in anger. His face covered in colorful paint. He walked passed the smiling Marcel with an angry face. Marcel looked at Davina's closed door with remorse.

Katherine giggles non stop when she hears the news in Mystic falls. A good person turned bad is really hard core.

"Oh man, did you see that coming?" May aked with visible sweat on her forehead.

"I didn't." Katherine and answered truthfully.

It only happened because she cursed Stefen at that time. Although it was hormones making her cranky but this outcome is really..."hahahaha..."

She really couldn't hold in the laughter. "What are you so happy about? You have lost your leverage over Caroline. If her mother is dead, then she wouldn't work for you in the future." May said with a puzzled expression.

"Am I in shortage of people to work for me? No, this is funny to me because if she hadn't chosen Elena over and over again....she would have been able to summon one of you like how Elana summoned me back then. Then you would have helped her somehow..but now. Hah"

"That makes sence. Her love for Elena really costs her and there is nothing she can do about it." May drank beer and laid next to Katherine.

This fact is not lost on Caroline as she wrapped up her mother's funeral, she goes to her home and packs a bag. She remembers how Elena broke down when Jeremy died and in her emotional condition she summoned Katherine and like in every fariy god mother story, she brought back Jeremy and Elena was happy again.

Elena will always get what she wants and the rest of them will just make do. She can not blame Elena about this because she is the one who gave Elena her own magic trinket like a good foil for the protagonist.

She has already changed a dorm room that she was sharing with Elana. She will leave it for Elena and Bonnie. Caroline is speaking to them but she has decided ro distance herself from them for a while. She will try and make new friends in the college at this time.

.....

Katherine is called on the outside of the barrier, there is Enzo there standing up straight like a soldier. Upon seeing her, he managed to pull out a small smile.

"Katherine."

"Enzo. Please come in." He is able to enter the barrier after that, she took him to a guest room. "I will call Mikel to help you since I should probably not delve into the spirit world in my condition." She then left him to call Mikel.

"Leader." Mikel answered.

"I have a favor to ask of you Mikel. Do you think you can come over for dinner?"

"Yes. I will be right there."

"Good." She dropped the call.

Katherine went to continue her nap. In the afternoon they have supper and Enzo joins them. He is surprised by the quality of the blood. He has never tasted anything like it.

Mikel and Katherine take him to a 'situation' room covered with runes. Mikel uses him as a conduit to contact the lady but nothing happened so he pulled Enzo into the spirit realm.

This is the realm that has always existed long before Qetsiya met Silas and created the other side. It is where humans who has not moved on are found although it is not as simple. They walked for a long time before finding her. Enzo filled with guilt embraces her. "Meggie."

"Enzo...is that you?" Megan looked at the face she has longed to see until time seased to have meaning.

"It is I....my love I am sorry...I am so sorry I couldn't fulfill my promise to you." Enzo cried like a child and held the woman he loved with in his arms.

Megan too cried and laughed happily. "Silly soldier, It is not your fault. I can not begin to describe how happy I am to see you. Lorenzo...St John. My love. I was hoping you would come by some day." She is crying again. Mikel backed away slowly until they couldn't see him.

"I know you...." Lizz called out. Her spirit is already dissipating. How ironic, the woman from earlier had been dead for so many yeas but she didn't show any signs of moving on. Love really is a cursed thing.

"Miss Forbes, I was saddened to hear of your passing." Mikel spoke nonsense without batting an eye.

"Please, tell Caroline to look into the safe at work the password is her birsthday. I had written her a letter when I had cancer. Promise me..." She tried to urge him.

"I promise. But tell me something, how did you know I am not dead?"

"It's a feeling. I can't explain it. I just knew." She then dissipated. Even if Caroline cried a bucket of salt, her mother will not come back now. Mikel thought in amusement. He walked but bumped into someone.

"Watch it." John looked at the strong young man looking down on him.

"You're not dead...how are you here?" John stood up and touched Mikel's arm which Mikel shook off.

"Hey I know you. You are that wolf near Katherine. You can bring people back from the dead. I am John Gilbert, thank Katherine for bringing back Jeremy for me will you?" John smiled.

"He is not back, he is a walking dead. He will not grow old, grow strong or have children." Mikel explained. The more he said, the more John's face turned ugly.

The spirit world is not like the otherside, gloomy and without color. The spirit realm even has spirit animals. Which is very beautiful but the spirits of the intelligent people here are not at peace. It differs from person to person but the longer Mikel stays here the more he can feel it.

He didn't pay too much attention to the other man and ran back to Enzo finding them holding onto heach other in a blissful silence. Soon, her spirit started getting paler and translucent and soon Enzo is holding empty air.

Mikel took them both out and Enzo just laid there with tears in his eyes. Katherine and Mikel left him there to be by himself.

...

In the compound, the Mikelsons gathered and went for the mad house to get answers. They enlisted Davina's help to enter and exit the place without any problems. After somè negotiations Davina agreed to help.

Marcel is surprised to see a coffin being carried inside but he decided to leave so he doesn't get in the way. No one stoped him.

Finn became struck dumb when

he saw the person in the box. Meanwhile, Davina had negotiated the chance to go outside and attend the music festival at the town square.

Klaus, still using Camille had her find out the girl's weakness. As it turns out, it is a boy name Tim.

The Mikelsons learned of who the beauty in the coffin is and Fin told them of their mother's troubles. He also stressed that if Freya is still alive then their aunt Dahlia is also alive. If she is alive she will want their children too.

In the end they chose to exercise caution and not wake her. Not that they know how to.

Things sort of settled down. Hayley is brought to live in the compound. Rebekah wants to take Kol and leave this dreadful city but Elijah tries to convince them otherwise. They still don't know much about Freya, Dahlia or Mikel's whereabouts.

Hayley also settles down and decides not to use the map to find her family for the time being. They will just be used against her anyways and it's not like she can protect them.

This is why she is grateful for Mikel's presence. She heard he has made it clear there will be no killing of werewolves while he is around and she knows if she has a family it is probably out there.

The bayou is very peaceful these days with less vampires hunting them for sports so they have managed to build some shelters to hide from the weather.

Davina had a good time outside and when she came cack to the compound she was is a good mood. She also called Marcel to tell him about Katherine's conjecture about the ritual and also about the witch who knew a lot about the ritual itself.

Marcel didn't want to hear anything that suggest for her to die. "Katherine warned me that if the ritual starts claiming me itself it will be too late for the method she suggested. At that time we will have to deal with completing the ritual."

"D, don't listen to her, she probably just wants to get rid of a threat to her husband. You are young but very powerful, trust me D, they raised me so I know how they operate. They will smile at you with sincerity while they plunge a knife into you the moment you expose your back to them. Don't get fooled."

"I will go to war with the devil himself but I can not protect you from your own choices. So make the choices that doesn't make me sweat with worry. Please." He took her small hand and gave her a fatherly hug.

"I'll listen to you." She decided to just sleep and forget about it for now.

In the following weeks the woman who had been Elijah's lover disappeared. She had seen Elijah following her with a familiar expression. She thinks he is suspecting her to be involved with the witches that ambushed Hayley in the clinic.

She decided to lay low until she is ready to enact her plan. The game of cat and mouse began.

The pregnant women's bellies started showing. Katherine started decorating a set of rooms for the triplets. She wants to avoid the situation where one child wakes up and cries then waking up the other kids. There will be baby monitors in each room. But the room's sounds will be isolated.

Elijah is also helping her with the decorations. They chose yellow, cream white, grey and white. The colors are mixed perfectly in each room.

"The babies are still too young and you should rest. The drawings you provided are more than enough." Elijah said taking the pillow from her and setting up the room himself.

"I am trying to be a domestic....person." Katherine said awkwardly.

"Aha.." Elijah sounded amused.

"What kind of expression is that? I can be gentle and virtuous and kind. Okay?" She didn't believe her own words.

"I believe you. You are gentle. And Kind.." Elijah looked uncomfortable.

"What about the other thing?"

"Mm?"

Katherine narrowed her eyes.

"Look at this night light...it's fun right? If we turn it on the room looks like it is under water with bubbles and fishes swiming round the room."

Katherine just rolled her eyes at his pathetic save. They continued decorating but they don't finish right away. They have made it part of the activities they do together when Elijah is home sometimes.

That day Mikel called Klaus and told him to tell the girl about her mother's letter. Klaus did it and luckily is was before she turned her humanity off.

Meanwhile, Bonnie is brought back as the anchor. Silas, Amara, Qetsiya are all dead and the otherside is saved with Bonnie being the anchor now.

Enzo had decided to join the vampire faction. He had initially wanted to stay but because he is too weak to be surrounded by the original vampires, Katherine just sent him to the vampire headquarters to get stronger, he went along with her daughter who also needs to be stronger before she can stay here with her.

Klaus became angered by Davina's increasing defiant attitude. He asked her to see what is wrong with Freya and how they can wake her, Davina just told him she is not his household witch.

"I am sorry sweetheart but that is exactly what you are. Now get to work...chop chop." Klaus said in a Klaus like fashion which prompted Davina to snap his neck and teleport his body to the depth of the bayou lake.

When he woke up he was angry but Marcel stood in his way. Knowing that the girl is only doing this because she believes herself to be strong, he will break her in a way that only he can. He went to change his clothes and started a new painting.

Marcel knew that Klaus will not give up or give in, so he raised guard. Hailey let it slip to Davina that the elder witch had tried to kill her unborn baby and Elijah killed her. Knowing that the witches don't have an elder to perform the ritual, Davina wanted to run away.

She transfigured a pillow to look like her and put it on the bed to seem like she is sleeping. She spoke to Camille who agreed to help her run from the city after she undid Klaus's complusion.

Marce went to check on her and realized she is not breathing. He tried to find her and even made a deal with the witches to put a protection spell on Davina.

Klaus had compelled Timothy to feed Davina poisoned water and then himself. Just when they are about to escape the city, Davina and Timothy died. Davina came back to life but Timothy was not so lucky.

Davina is so weak with grief that she went back to the cabin in the bayou. She fell asleep in pain. Davina has no way to call Katherine she dumped her phone when she realized they may use it to track her.

When she woke up she saw Marcel sitting next to her bed with his head sleeping on the side of the bed. He seemes tired.

Her movement woke Marcel. "Hey D." It broke his heart to see her so beaten and her spirit deeming like this. He felt so inadequate as a protector he failed her.

"Do you know one of the things Katherine said to me when we first met? After she found out about my past, she said I am a fool to not running away from this city." She sniffed in pain. Her red eyes showing anguish.

"She said Marcel will not win against Klaus, and Klaus will never kill Marcel. When Klaus gets bored of toying with him he will take back the city and then Marcel will have to hand you over to Klaus. Because winner takes all."

"You will resist and be defiant and that's when Klaus will break you. He will find your weakness and deal a devastating blow to tame you. When you are down, you have no will to fight and become an empty shell. Maybe you are too untamable, he will not have you fall into the hands of others, you are too dangerous, you are a threat and he will deal with you accordingly." Davina has stopped crying now..

"D, I'm sorry." Marcel closed his eyes in pain. He also doesn't know where to go from here. Just then, Davina started shaking and the entire city shook with her.

Davina looked at Marcel in horror. "It's happening, the harvest ritual is claiming me. Marcel..." She cries in pain and passed out.

The people of New Orleans are getting used to their new king when Davina started creating storms that shook the enterety of the city. Marcel's worry is palpable, Davina is sick so he brought her back to the Mikelsons compound to try and get help.
