The Black Vampire hisses, then the white vampire grabs Sophie, who begins struggling, when she is dropped back the white vampire is carried away, leaving Sophie and the Black vampire looking at the empty space, possibly in search for the white vamp.

 A Sound is heard as a heart drops to the floor blood dripping, Sophie and the black vamp stares at it, the black vamp looking stared at it then looked up he turns back to Sophie his face in anger, when a shadow rushed in grabbing him by the neck as he hits him against the wall, the carry him all the way up pinning a sliver knife in his chest, leaving him pierced to the wall his face instantly turning pale white, as cracks appeared in his skin, Sophie see's this and for a moment her heart leapt in fear, as she started breathing out using her hands to cover her mouth, Elijah appears breathing slightly as he stared at the vampire hanging, then speaks

[Elijah]: I'm Elijah [he then turns his head looking at Sophie and asked]  have you heard of me?"

[Sophie]:  "Yes [she said nodding her head repeatedly]"

[Elijah]: "So why don't you tell me what business your family has with my brother?"

.....Changing scene.....

Outside a cemetery stood the sign, 'Lafayette Cemetery No. 1.', Elijah and Sophie walks towards that place, after Sophie opens the door, she enters the gate and entered, but something stops Elijah from entering who then looks at Sophie his face inquisitive

[Sophie]: " This is sacred ground, which means vampires have to be invited in. But since I'm desperate, come on in. [Elijah takes a slow step forward seeing nothing stops him now, he then entered inside}, We can talk freely here."

[Elijah]: "Then I suggest you start talking. What did your sister want with me, NiKlaus?"

[Sophie]: "Isn't it obvious? We have a vampire problem, and we need help. Marcel has an army backing him. The witches have been trying to fight back. We haven't had much luck. Until my sister, Jane Anne, met a girl. A werewolf passing through the quarter from a small town in Virginia. She had a special connection to your brother."

[Elijah]: "What kind of connection?"

[Sophie]: "Apparently, they spent some time together. One thing led to another. And now, this special werewolf girl... She's pregnant, and the father of the child she's carrying is your brother, Klaus."

[Elijah]: "It's impossible."

[Sophie]: "Nothing's impossible, especially not when it comes to your brother. Think about it. They call him the hybrid, right? [she then turn back and call out] bring her out"

3 witches bring out a girl (Authors note: the name of the girl is Hayley) 

the moment Elijah saw her he was entranced, the girl brought Hayley standing at 5'7", looking like someone who has been living on the road, dressed in practical, slightly worn clothing, a dark leather jacket over a simple top and jeans, paired with sturdy boots. Her dark brown hair is wavy and a bit unkempt, flowing from her head till her shoulders. As she slightly shakes her body from left to right, then from right to left, looking at Elijah, she ask's

[Hayley]: "Who the hell are you?"

Elijah walks forward a bit, then stops turning to Sophie saying

[Elijah]: "Give us a moment, please."

...changing scene...

Elijah appears within a room walking around Hayley who sits on a chair, and asks

[Elijah]: "So have they been holding you here against your will?"

[Hayley]: "They lured me out to the bayou and grabbed me. And they did all these weird witchy tests. Not that I understand how this could happen. I mean, vampires are dead. They can't have children."

[Elijah]: "Perhaps if you knew my brother's story, it might explain how this is possible. Here, if I may."

then Elijah about place his palm on Hayley heads, when she dodges, asking

[Hayley]: What are you doing?

[Elijah]: "If you open your mind to me, [he then sits next to her and puts his puts his hand on her head I can show you." 

[Elijah]:"In the beginning, our family was human. [scene changes Rebekah is seen running wearing a long-sleeved kirtles (dresses) in muted colors like cream or pale blue, often with her hair in long, traditional braids. running], A Thousand years ago now."

[Rebekah]: "Come on, Henrik, our brothers are fighting again" [Rebekah said running as she called her brother there stood Elijah-in a rugged, dark tunic made of heavy wool or linen, fastened with leather straps. He has a rougher appearance, with slightly longer hair and Klaus earthy tones—browns and deep greens. His tunics are often layered with furs or leather vests, exchanging sword moves]

[Elijah]: "Although our mother dabbled in the dark arts, we were largely just a family trying to survive in a time when it was quite difficult to do so. And for better or worse, we were happy. [then Klaus made a move cutting Elijah Belt, Klaus kneeling one foot to the ground as he pointed his sword at Elijah in triumph and victory laughing with joy] That is, however, until one night, our youngest brother was killed by our village's greatest threat" 

[Niklaus]: "Father!" [Klaus is seen running towards the village as he knelt at his father house shouting in grief in his two hands he held his youngest brother]

[Elijah]: "Men that could transform themselves into wolves during the full moon. Our family was devastated. None more than Niklaus. Desperate to protect the rest of us, our father forced our mother to call upon her black magic in order to make us stronger."[a scene of the mother cutting her hand with her knife blood immediately surging forward, the father raised her hand then forced each person in the family including himself to drink her blood]

[the father(Mikael)]; "Drink!"

[Elijah]: Thus the first vampires were born. But with this speed, this strength, this immortality came. No one felt this hunger more than Niklaus. [Klaus is shown linen tunic in a faded brown or grey color, torn at the collar, leather trousers and simple hide boots, speeding towards a person as he sinks his fangs into a person], When he killed for the first time, we knew what he truly was." 

[Niklaus]:[after drinking his fill of blood then dropping the body, his leg suddenly bent as he went down the two legs bent bone cracking] "What, What is happening to me?"

Elijah hearing Klaus screams of pain runs towards him wanting to help when he is stopped by Mikael who held him by hugging him from the back preventing him from moving forward.

[Mikael]: No, don't! [Mikael held back Elijah from going to help, and pushed him back] Don't!

[Niklaus]: "Father, it hurts!" Klaus said in pain as his The scapula (shoulder blades) snap out of their sockets and push outward, creating the "humped" silhouette of a wolf. You can hear the sound of dry wood snapping as the bones break and reset in seconds, his jawbone audibly snaps and elongates to accommodate a wolf's snout, His canine teeth don't just extend like vampire fangs, they broaden and sharpen into serrated predatory teeth, while the surrounding molars shift to allow for a crushing bite. The vertebrae in his back crack and expand, forcing him to drop from a standing position onto all fours as his spine curves into a predatory arch, the radius and ulna in the forearms snap and fuse, while the legs break at the knees and ankles to create the hind-leg structure of a canine. his head raised high his eyes dilate, and a golden-yellow "wolf-fire" replaces his natural eye colour, his head arched high as his screams transitions into a bone-chilling roar that echoes through the forest.

[Mikael]: "He's a beast. An abomination." [Klaus slowly raises hiss head staring at Mikael in disbelief]

[Elijah]: "He wasn't just a vampire." he said as he removed his head, and turned his head facing the ground

[Hayley]: "He was also a werewolf. That's how the werewolf curse works. It isn't activated until you take a life."

[Elijah]: "Niklaus was the result of an indiscretion our mother had hidden from us all. [he said turning his head to hayley] An affair with a werewolf like yourself. Infuriated by this betrayal, [Esther the mother of Klaus, Elijah and co, wife of Mikael is seen performing a ritual before a bonfire] my father forced our mother to cast a spell that would suppress Klaus's werewolf side, denying him any connection with his true self."

Mikael is shown tying Niklaus who is not willing, to a cross, shout's to Elijah

[Mikael]: "Elijah, Elijah. Hold him down."

[Niklaus]: "Brother! [Niklaus begs Elijah who follows Mikael to tie him to the cross] Please don't let them do this to me!"

[Mikael]: "Do it now, boy! Now!"

Klaus staring into the eye's of Elijah say's "Help me."

[Hayley]: "Your dad was a dick. I'm Haley, by the way. [she said as she raise her hand and shake's Elijah hand] You should probably know my name if you're gonna tell me your whole life story."
