Chapter 9 - Chapter Nine: The War-I Part-2

There laid knocked out Rebekah alongside the stiff, almost dead Henrik. The man who leads The Equilibrium was fighting the last woman left among the people protecting Esther, Rebekah, and Henrik. And outside on the battleground, Elijah, Finn were fighting alongside Mikael; killing people continuously but they were outnumbered. Niklaus and Kol were knocked out.

A painful scream out of the woman fighting with the man grabbed Esther's attention who was till then just whispering with her eyes closed. She opened her eyes to see the woman's detached head in the man's head. He rid his hands out of the head and the head fell. The man looked at the determined; enraged Esther with a foul; deceiving grin.

A few minutes before

Mikael stood in front of the confused Kol and took the hand of the attacker coming for Kol and sprung the attacker in the air so fast that he detached it from his body; hence, killing the attacker.

"Boys, fight!"

And so Mikael and his sons formed a circle and started fighting the Equilibrium.

"Mum!" screamed Rebekah.

Everyone looked at Rebekah and then at the man who arrived at their doorstep with an evil smile.

"He must be seeing an illusion of an old room." One of the people said silently.

The man's grin grew wider at that. He started walking towards them. He was now standing almost two steps away. He whispered,

"Tayata, now." Within a second, The salt circle broke out of shape and spread in the air.

"Let's stop being cowards, shall we?"

Mikael and his sons were at no rest. Just killing brutally, rampantly. Tayata with other witches cast a spell that made Niklaus get on his knees in pain in his head. It felt like a siren was being played in his head perpetually. He held his head and screamed in pain.

"Brother!..." Elijah was about to help Niklaus but Mikael intervened.

"No, Elijah! Stay. The witches are doing this. You keep on fighting!"

"But Niklaus, father!"

"Leave Niklaus! I said keep on fighting, so keep on fighting!"

Elijah kept on fighting.

Only one woman was left to protect Esther, Rebekah, and Henrik. Before the man could do anything else, Henrik stood in front of them,

"No, I am the only man left here and I am not going to let you hurt anyone else now!"

The man laughed at this.

"And who are you supposed to be?"

"Henrik Mikaelson."

"Oh, you're one of the two who chose mortality for five years, am I wrong? (to Rebekah) And you're Rebekah Mikaelson! And the woman behind whispering something is your mom, Esther. That's why you are alone here with these people protecting you! I realize this now!"

"That's dumb of you," Henrik commented.

"Aren't you a little too weak to be commenting on me?" the man snapped.

"Aren't you a little too old to snap at a child?" Henrik snapped back.

"One word more and I'll be ripping your heart out."

"Do it! I am not afraid."

"Henrik don't....." Rebekah was about to do something but he instantly swiped the sword across Henrik's stomach. Henrik fell on his knees and then on the floor. Rebekah was about to go for his aid but the man slapped her and swiped the sword on her back. And Rebekah fell as same alongside Henrik.

But Esther showed no change. The woman of The Order came back to her senses and she started fighting with the man.

The witches' next target was Kol. They did the same with Kol as they did with Niklaus. And soon, Kol was knocked out like Niklaus.

"You two handle the situation here for a minute. I'll deal with the witches."

Mikael started running speedily. Being almost invisible, the witches couldn't see him, and then Mikael in a few seconds pulled out every witches' heart except Tayata. He saw her leaving but he went to help Elijah and Finn.

There laid knocked out Rebekah alongside the stiff, almost dead Henrik. The man who leads The Equilibrium was fighting the last woman left among the people protecting Esther, Rebekah, and Henrik. And outside on the battleground, Elijah, Finn and were fighting alongside Mikael; killing people continuously but they were outnumbered. Niklaus and Kol were knocked out.

A painful scream out of the woman fighting with the man grabbed Esther's attention who was till then just whispering with her eyes closed. She opened her eyes to see the woman's detached head in the man's head. He rid his hands out of the head and the head fell. The man looked at the determined; enraged Esther with a foul; deceiving grin.

The man and Esther started walking in circles. The man carried an arrogant smile and Esther carried a firm look.

"So who are you?"

"I am from The Equilibrium."

"I asked who are you. Not what are you."

"I am Minen. Minen Itzer. A very important person in the Equilibrium."

"And who told you that? Your dear Ulmurin Atkin? (Minen frowned a little) Why so silent?"

"Why bring him here?"

"Then why are you here? Didn't he ask you to lead the fight today?"

"Yes. Everyone follows his order. And the order was to kill everyone but not Henrik and Rebekah as they are human. I just wanted to take the immortality blood out of their systems which are half of the whole amount. I just did that. What's the big deal in this?"

"The big deal is not everyone will slit their own throat in a second if his lordship orders."

"But he will never ask me to slit my own throat in the first place."

Esther stopped walking and so did he.

"That's what you think, Minen. To him, you are just a toy like any other bed partner he has."

"Careful for your words, Esther! You are all alone here." Minen says angrily yet carrying a smug smile.

"Who says she is alone?" a voice came from the back. The voice was similar to Esther. Esther wished she'd never heard that voice again her life but under circumstances, she had to call out her help. As soon as she saw Minen at the doorstep, she started calling out to her. She was continuously whispering, 'Sister, I need you. Show yourself.'

Even when Henrik and Rebekah were being slain, she didn't stop whispering that sentence.

"You needed me, sister?" Dahlia asked with a smug smile. Esther smiled also.

"Incendia Maximos!" Suddenly Minen was lit on fire. Minen was screaming and shouting in pain. Esther also chanted spells to trap Minen at his place.

After Esther's spell, Minen was trapped at his place. He couldn't move. He couldn't do anything besides just shouting and screaming in pain and agony. Pretty soon, Minen was in ashes. Dahlia took some of the ash in his hand and rubbed it on Henrik and Rebekah's wound. She whispered a spell and soon their wound filled in.

"It's good to see you sister," Esther said with a filling smile.

"Yes, feels like old times," Dahlia said with the same smile.

"How's..... you know----"

"She's fine," Dahlia assured.

"Come on, we have to help them."

Mikael and his two sons were now exhausted. They were in extreme need of some help. With Niklaus and Kol knocked out, they were seriously outnumbered. Suddenly, they saw a bunch of people flying in the air and just vomiting their blood. They vomited the entire amount of blood they had in their body. All of the people lying up felt down; dead.

"Dahlia?..." Mikael got surprised and shocked.

"It's good to see you too pirate."

"I was a Viking, not a pirate."

"Quite same, aren't they?" Dahlia chuckled. Mikael chuckled too.

Dahlia and Esther helped Mikael and his sons to fight and soon, everyone was wiped out.

"It seems we have got everyone, don't we?"

"Not everyone." Esther disagreed.

"Who's left?" Dahlia asked.

"Follow me."

Tayata was running in the forests. Trying to save herself. She was tired; out of breath but she didn't stop. Suddenly she heard a breeze of air. She stopped, looked back but there was no one. When she turned her head to look forward, Dahlia was standing in front of her. She held a strong stretched palm of his right hand above Tayata's head and Tayata sat on her knees in the same siren-type pain.

"Don't kill her. She's mine and mine only." Esther said.

Dahlia stood aside but didn't move her palm. Esther stood in front of Tayata.

"Don't kill me. Don't kill me, please!"

"I wish not to. I am not that girl anymore. (Dahlia frowned a little but she ignored it) But I have to do this. Because I can't let anyone who hurt my family. And this is what you get for making the mistake of coming here."

All of a sudden, Tayata's stretched thumb was coming towards her eyes. Tayata tried not to but it was out of her control.

"Please, don't..." Tayata begged while sobbing.

Soon, her thumbs were inside her eyes; thus, her eyeballs were damaged. Blood started flowing in her eyes. Esther didn't let Tayata rest her thumbs until her screams would stop. When it did, when Tayata died, Esther said sorry and both Dahlia and Esther walked off.

And this is how the Mikaelsons won their first fight.
