Chapter 11: Brotherhood Of The Five
Italy 1114
In a center of a town, there gathered a crowd as they watched someone on the platform, a man who was telling them about the creatures of the night, the vampires.
???: "these demons live among you, passing as human, so witness with your own eyes"
As he said this, he opened a coffin which was placed at the center of the platform which house a person who tried to come out but couldn't because he was going to burn under the sun but he still came out which made him get caught on fire making him scream and fell to the ground rolling.
When the man who was telling them about the vampires saw this he was happy and feeling proud about his accomplishment.
In midst of the crowds stood three originals vampires.
Elijah: "he's putting on quite a show there"
Niklaus: "that's nothing, I could eat him for sports"
Elijah: "still, you should heed the warning between you here and Kol in the east, you should keep things discreet, stories about the original vampires are spreading"
Niklaus: "I will welcome such infamy, but if you are worried about discretion then you perhaps should wrangle our sister"
Viktor: "sigh, she easily falls in love with men she deems handsome and pose a risk to her"
Viktor said as he remembered about her love escapades in the series.
The three brothers looked at their sister playing lovey dovey with the hunter who just put on the show for the crowd not too long ago.
The original siblings have lived for over a century now and they have had many upgrades for up to 11 decades now and their abilities have been enhanced so much that they can be called demi - gods in this word. They have also awaken there shadow ability not too long ago, so these pesky hunters isn't even something the should worry about, all they wanted was that the originals remains in dark for now.
Rebekah came to them with smiles which Niklaus took upon himself to destroy as he said with a smile.
Niklaus: "you do know, we might have to kill him one of these days, Rebekah, so don't get too attached for your heart's sake"
Rebekah: "come on brother, he is a handsome and a lovely fellow, why do you have to kill him"
Viktor: "first, he is a hunter who is trying to kill us off which is a futile effort, secondly, he might not even love you and he is just trying to use you to get to us which I will say again is a futile effort"
Elijah: "I have to agree with Viktor on this one, Rebekah, even though we can't die, we don't want you to experience a heartbreak in your early immortal life"
The three brothers persuaded her from pursing this hunter guy but due to her stubbornness she refused. She walked out on them going her way.
Later at the Mikealson's temporary residence
Freya: "why don't we invite this guy over for a dinner, what was is name again Rebekah?"
Rebekah hearing what her sister said replied with a beaming smile on her face.
Rebekah: "his name is Alexander, sister"
Kol: "so you have already fallen for him so quickly, damn such a shame he will have to die"
Finn: "shut up kol, we know he hunts our kind but that's does not mean we will attack him just like that, if he attacks first then that is a different story entirely"
Rebekah sat there as she listening to her brothers while contemplating on what to do if Alexander truly targets her family.
Elijah: "enough you guys, as Freya said we should invite him over a dinner and see his motives for her if he is truly targeting our family, then I assure you guys I will end him myself"
Elijah said as he looked at Rebekah and the rest of his siblings with conviction in his eyes.
The Mikealson's agreed and they all decided to invite him tonight.
Later at night.
The Mikealson's all gathered around a table for a meal while waiting for Rebekah and Alexander to come join them.
Henrik: "what if he has ulterior motives"
Viktor: "then we will kill him"
Finn: "why are all you thinking that he has ulterior motives, we don't even know if he knows about our existence as vampires, so we should just wait until he comes"
Freya: "I agree with Finn, we should give him the benefit of doubt for now"
As they talking, the man of the hour arrived, with a beaming Rebekah.
Rebekah: "everyone, this Alexander, Alex, these are my siblings, Freya, Finn, Elijah, Viktor, Niklaus, Kol and Henrik"
Alexander: "woah, you have such a big family, hello my name is Alexander and I've heard a lot about you guys from the lovely Rebekah here"
They all sat that and got ready to eat when Viktor called the maids they compelled to served them.
Alexander: "thank you, I have to say, I am unaccustomed to such luxury"
Elijah: "that's the least we can do to repay for opening our eyes to the truth, I'm curious to hear more about your order, the crusade"
Alexander: "we are but five men, bound by fire and the last breath of a dying witch to a single cause, the destruction of all vampires"
After he said that all the Mikealson's looked to each other subtly when Klaus spoke.
Niklaus: "and how do you hope to achieve this"
Alexander: "we have the ultimate weapon which no vampire can survive"
Viktor: "what is this ultimate weapon if you don't mind my question"
Alexander: "I would have love to tell you but I cannot due to certain reasons"
Viktor: " well that's bad, but just so you know you are always welcome to our home"
Alexander: "thank you"
They all ate to their fill, and they called the maid to come clean the table after which the Mikealson's and Alexander said to goodbye to each other. Alexander left with Rebekah who accompanied him.
Kol: "he definitely know something and I can see that he also has an idea about us, did you see the way he looks at us when he says the word vampires"
Freya: "I agree with kol, he knows about our family, which would be dangerous if what this ultimate weapon he talks about can really hurt you"
Finn: "so what are we going to do now, we can't just attack him not knowing what or where the weapon is"
Rebekah: "I will get it from him, rest assured, I won't let anything harm my family"
They all turned to look at Rebekah who walked through the door with a solemn face.
