The Errand
Ok so I was a part of @saverottmnt‘s art exchange! I can’t draw too well, so I stuck to fanfic lol. 
Anyway, my gift is for @technofantasia (I hope this is the right person lol), and I hope they like it! 
I kinda combined the prompts ‘Donnie’s soft side’ and the ‘turtles dealing with neurodivergence’ to create...something. 
This is one of my first ever attempts at writing for Rise, so please bear with me. I tried to keep everyone in character, but may have failed. 
Side note: This fic is exactly 1000 words lol. Idk why but I love that. XD
Alright, without further ado, let’s get to the story!
God Bless and Good Day!
~The Lupine Sojourner
Donnie was hardly ever one to do anything without some reward or incentive, even for his brothers. 
It was simply not on his radar usually. 
This, however, was an exception. Over the past six months, Mikey had been going absolutely nuts, seeming incapable os sitting still, always playing with his hands or annoying his brothers in some way. 
So Donnie did some research in some tattered books Splinter had found and the precious laptop Splinter had snagged from an electronics store that had been foreclosed on. 
Donnie found out a lot of interesting stuff about what might be causing Mikey to be hyperactive and crazy. 
It seemed the problem might be that Mikey was understimulated and simply needed a hobby or some kind of outlet for his energy. 
And if Donnie remembered correctly, Mikey seemed very interested in the arts, always drinking up knowledge about painting and drawing and sculpting like it was water. 
So Donnie did some more research. Mutation Day (as they’d taken to calling the day they became a family) was coming up, and he knew just what he wanted to get Mikey. 
The others...well that would have to wait.
He grabbed the oversized hoodie whoever left the Lair wore to hide their appearance and slipped out. He had limited funds, so he’d only buy the supplies he couldn’t find in dumpsters.
He knew what he had to do; if Mikey’s hyperactivity was not stimulated by some kind of outlet, Donnie figured the kid would only get worse and would never give the brothers any peace, so Donnie was willing to go out and get something for his baby brother. 
Only to get some peace and quiet so he could work on his projects...right?
Donnie shakes himself; he’d figure it out later.
=#=#=#=#=
It took longer than he thought to get back, but he’d found some decent acrylic paints someone had thrown away or lost in a side alley and had asked April for any old art supplies she wasn’t gonna use. 
April, turns out, had several sketch pads she hadn’t used, and some canvases and brushes she’d held on to for years. 
When Donnie had explained why he needed art supplies, April was thrilled and talked with Donnie about the possibility that Mikey might have ADHD or just hyperactivity and definitely needed stimulus and something to put his energy toward.
Donnie wondered why he hadn’t gone to April’s right off the bat. That girl always knew the solution to their problems.
While he was there, Donnie was also introduced to the concept of stim toys, little things that let someone fiddle with something without much disturbance to anyone else. Donnie liked the idea and did some research with April before he left her place. 
He’d see about either making a stim toy or buying one later if the art supplies weren’t enough to help with Mikey’s high energy levels.
=#=#=#=#=
It was finally Mutation Day and Mikey had done as much as he could decorating the Lair and had spent all morning making a huge brunch with their dad. 
Donnie brought his box of supplies out for Mikey and put it in the pile of other gifts the boys had crafted or found for the special occasion. 
The family sat down for brunch and eagerly got to eating, then cleaned up 
Finally, it was time for gifts. 
Donnie had also restored a projector from the foreclosed store (having lugged it back to the Lair in secret for Mutation Day) and it was good as new. All that needed to be done was set it up in the living room for movie or game nights. 
Leo had made little wooden carvings of what turtles his brothers were, even trying to add masks, which wasn’t perfect, but it was the thought that counted, right?
Raph had taken to knitting and had knit his brothers scarves and beanies in their mask colors with a blanket for Splinter. 
Mikey had cooked food so he was excused from gift-giving, and he was pleasantly surprised when Donnie plops the box in front of him. 
“Here. This is something for you to practice so you stop bothering us all the time.” Donnie says then walks back to his spot in the circle.
Mikey excitedly opens the package.
“You don’t normally do individual gifts...or any gifts at all, D. You sure yer feeling ok?” Leo asks coyly. 
“I only did it cus I’m behind on my projects and I want Mikey to stop interrupting my work.” Donnie grumbles, flushing a little pink. 
It wasn’t like he cared that Mikey was beaming like he’d been handed the world, right? 
He only wanted Mikey to stop barging into Donnie’s lab to bother him. 
He didn’t see the big deal, but apparently everyone was reading too much into it, saying sappy things like ‘didn’t know you cared, Donald’ ‘you do love me under that tough guy persona!’ and ‘well done, Purple’. 
Donnie doesn’t know how to handle this, so he just grabs the projector and mumbles something about needing to set it up as he leaves the room. 
His siblings and father could be overwhelming sometimes, but he knew they loved him and each other. 
So he starts prepping to install the projector when Mikey comes out. 
“Hey, uh, D?” He asks softly, clutching a sketchbook to his chest. 
“Yeah?” Donnie replies, trying not to sound irritated at the interruption. 
“...Thanks.” Is all Mikey says, but one look at his dorky, blissful grin and Donnie knew he’d made the right call getting those stupid art supplies for his brother.
=#=#=#=#=
Over the next year, as often as possible, Mikey was creating something, be it paintings that made no sense to anyone but him, or portraits and even some comics. 
And he’d settled down immensely. No more running through Donnie’s lab and costing Donnie precious time.
That was the only reason Don had done it. 
It wasn’t just to see that adorable smile on Mikey’s face...was it?

famed idol life / career meme
notes: i started doing responses one by one, but then i thought it’d be better to do one big mass-post instead of flooding dash all at once. thank you to all that sent in! appreciate u all :~) (if anyone has any numbers they need, please feel free to like this or just let me know, even if i already sent in an ask!)
2. what are your favorite b-sides/non-title tracks you’ve released?
“i like diana. there’s something moody, sultry about it with a touch of elegance. it’s almost like cheap wine on a long friday — contrasting, but it somehow fits. plus, sooah helped out on that track which becomes the cherry icing on top. perhaps, there’s something better coming out on my next album, where there’s too many b-sides that i’d cherry pick myself to be my favorite. for that, look out at the sea, captain.”
3. what is your least favorite song (title track or b-side) you’ve released?
“i don’t think there’s a least favorite. if there were, then i wouldn’t have partook in any of it — my personality’s in it or out of it. there’s no in between, especially where my voice plays a part. i don’t want to touch things where my heart doesn’t lie, that’d just be cruel. wouldn’t it? if it doesn’t relieve my soul a bit, then i don’t think i’d dip my toes in those waters.”
6. what is one thing (a concept, a genre, an outfit, etc.) you would least like your company make you do?
“i’d like to do house funk, maybe house-pop. you’ve seen elements in it in knight’s old releases, and even the oldies like decipher’s done it. unity’s dabbled in it somewhat in their b-sides, and considering fuse has amassed a long bridge of different concepts — the spectrum’s large. i’d like to wear hawaiian t-shirts and prance around to some summer house-funk, and that’s something i think the general public can all dance around in their rooms to.”
8. if you could be in any idol group, which one would you choose?
“i’ve grown accustomed to fuse — i like being in fuse. i don’t think i’d fit anywhere else, though i would say bee would be a nice change for the summer fun. i’d even enjoy myself to be in unity had i been a boy. can you imagine? the fun that would come out of belting welcome to my playground, and singing the tunes to touch. that’d be a girl’s dream come true.”
9. if you could say one thing to your ceo, what would it be?
“you’re the prettiest person i’ve ever seen. in the whole country, out of all the women in the world — you’re the standard of beauty. but i’m sure the whole world knows that by now, don’t they? i thank you for giving fuse some of the best songs, and though i’ve never met you face by face, i’d like to believe you’re better than what’s shown from face value. but, still — my wannabe face is you but no amount of plastic surgery would turn me into you, would it?”
10. if you were auditioning for your company today, what would you perform for your audition, or what would you change from your original audition?
“i don’t think i’d repeat the dance, nor attempt to dance to something like seo taeji and boys. if i recall, i did h.o.t’s we are the future, and snsd’s kissing you with a ruler i had in my back pocket. in retrospect, that was my standard of dancing — if only i’d known it’d become a bad memory to highlight the work i have left. maybe, i’d only stick to kissing you, ruler version while singing something more melodically acceptable than finkl’s now.”
11. if you could do any special stage, what would it be and who would it be with?
“i don’t know — i don’t know many things when it comes to these mix and match scenarios. i know i’d like to make a stage where i can dance freely as if i’m in the comfort of my own home. perhaps to a song like gee, or even oh — even willing to dabble in lipstick’s genie if it means dressing up like a sailor and going ahoy. i’d want to do the stage with jeonghwa, sooah, and well — i don’t have that many friends to give you a special stage, oops.”
13. if you could become a model or ambassador for any brand, what would you choose?
”again, i’ve been blessed and satiated with each and every opportunity given. working with dior has been a smooth sailing ride as well as cartier — perhaps, given the option i wouldn’t opt for pathere de cartier but a different line. still, nothing really takes away from the heart and soul of their jewelry, which i appreciate with my cup of tea. i’d continue to work with dior, and if hermes would ever take the punch — i’d even have an affair with them.”
14. if you could be on any variety show, which one (or which type of one) would you want to be on?
“knowing brothers — i really watch that show. or even, 전지적 참견 시점 — those are the shows i keep tabs of on a weekly basis. i'd love my manager to have her time to shine and steal the hearts of the world with her variety work. she’s a very funny person you know. as for knowing brothers? that’s a given knowing how quick the crowd is on their feet and the little mini-games that come from each episode. i hurt my stomach each time from laughing along so many times.”
16. what changes would you implement if you were the ceo of your company?
“a free-for-all. i’ve never wanted to become a ceo, but had i been granted the opportunity to rule on all floors, i’d implement a few things. mandatory art classes, and creative freedom to the album jackets for all my artists. no dating-bans, let it all air out — most of all, i’d let them do as they wished as long has it harmed nobody else and they could handle the aftermath. no restrictions, roam free, bunnies.”
17. what do you do to relieve the stress of idol life?
“call me pretentious or call me a sell-out, i do what any other normal person does. i like sitting in the cafes with my notebook out, sketching. i sketch people that come in and out, or the people that decide to sit next to me. if i’m home, i’m painting on canvas with my record player crooning in the background or knitting a sweater to wear next winter. on a really adventurous day, you’ll see me playing the pole or stretching my limbs at pilates. but that’s on a non-lazy day.”
18. what tips would you give to a trainee about to debut?
“wear your skin like armor, and let it thicken as time goes on. no need to get hurt by words, and instead roll with the punches — learn to accept the hate that comes, and be scrutinized underneath a microscope. sometimes, you don’t know if it’s really reality, but the faster you assimilate yourself, the quicker you learn to glide past your career. think of everything as a catch-22, only there’s no real safety net.”
19. what was the hardest part of being a trainee?
“getting along with the other people and have them stay away from getting to know me. it’s obvious, the trainee life is temporary — there’s going to be those that debut and those that don’t, so why pry further than you have to? everyone should’ve been given the basic privacy instead of trying to play formalities and get along. other than that, i hated dance practice and i still do. dance isn’t a strong suit, and having someone force me to follow a tempo i can’t march to was no fun at all.”
20. did you enjoy the lifestyle of a trainee or of a debuted idol more?
“i liked being a debuted idol far better, only because there was a layer of privacy given to me. ironically, i was suddenly in the public eye. yet, it still allowed some layer of anonymity within the inner circle and the day to day people i interacted with. starting from a sea of trainees, and having it dwindle to a group of my members — it all made it easier to handle in the end. besides, i was getting no sleep regardless trainee or not.”
22. describe your dream sub-unit (members and concept).
“take the fuse darker concepts — peekaboo, bad boy, psycho. and merge it into one, all while getting rid of the dresses too short to dress in. wrap it all together, and you get my favorite concept. i like mystery, and latent meanings behind pretty tunes, and being able to do that each comeback would be a dream. surely, the audience might get bored of it, but i wouldn’t and i’m allowed to be selfish, aren’t i? my dream sub-unit, i’d take sooah. without sooah, i don’t know what i’d do, really. she’s like a mini-mom, three years younger. then, i’d take kiana for the dance that sooah and i can’t handle. i suppose i’d add suji in there because i don’t think anyone can belt like she does, no offense to kiana. but there’s a heartier belt when suji does it. sorry to our leader, i guess.”
23. out of the following six options, would you rather be allowed to play a major hand in the lyrics, production, choreography, styling, music videos, or concepts you release?
“i started off in lyrics, so i’ll stay loyal till the end. i’ll keep to the lyrics, so i can continue to write the stories my heart wants to say. sometimes, i’ll fall into cliches, but that’s okay. if it’s not in music production or the general content of the song, i suppose i’d take a dabble in styling — and stop dressing myself in the short skirts making it impossible to dance. really, those are the only two things i’ll be selfish for.”
25. what is your least favorite part of being an idol?
“waking up early, not having enough time to draw — those would just be the superficial things, right? but really, there’s pros and cons to any jobs, just ask any office worker with a nine to five. however, if i’m given a sliver of honesty to wave my grievances, i’d like to mention that i don’t like working in short skirts that get shorter each comeback. i don’t like getting mauled by the public of who i make eye contact with or who i work with — i don’t like getting over criticized and the list goes on.”
26. what is your favorite part of being an idol?
“i’ve always been a story teller. i like crafting stories and telling my world for how i see it, and given this opportunity in music, i’m able to do so. i like playing with instruments, sketching out things for an album idea — the creative process while meeting new people along the way. it’s a journey, an adventure and most of all, it avoids stagnation. i’m on the move, go go go.”
27. would you rather be incredibly famous with a terrible reputation and hated by most or be fairly unknown with a good reputation and adored by those who know of you? why?
“i’m already disliked by most — they don’t like the way i dress, who i’m friends with or the manner in which i present myself. but i’m given the opportunity to ignore these things along the way, and learn to handle things bit by bit. given the choice, i’d rather hide in anonymity with the few around me enjoying my presence. i’ve learned by now, public opinion doesn’t correlate to much as it’s nothing more than a crow perched far away as poe would say.”
29. what have you learned about yourself and/or society since becoming a celebrity?
“i’ve only been taught life skills, such as time management and patience. in hindsight, i’ve learned how cruel people are to judge things from what they see at surface level. the world’s superficial — that’s a bitter pill to swallow. i don’t know much about myself as i haven’t gotten that part figured out. instead, i’ve just learned that the world is cruel and the people in it amount to little to no positivity — go figure.”

Yet, all is not well as danger comes for the smallest member of the Mikaelson family: Hope, and it prompts Niklaus to call upon the white goddess, drawing her back into Elijah’s life. As they reunite, can Elijah really say he’s truly moved on?
NOTE: OC and original elements are from my up and coming novel series!
AUTHOR’S COMMENTARY: This is it! This is the final chapter for Elijah’s Eternity: New Orleans! Thank you so much for reading, both present readers and future ones! I appreciate your readership. Look for to the next installment: Elijah’s Eternity: Cosmic Reset coming soon!
———————————————————————————————————
Three years passed by quickly. 
Even after all that time since their wedding, Elijah continued to find himself in marital bliss with Eternity by his side. Not that it would be anything less. Thinking back to his ten years of misery, he would have never thought himself capable of such bliss ever again. To go from that dark, empty place to this one of the purest light was a blessing unto him, a change of fate that he didn’t know what he did to deserve. 
After they had returned to New Orleans, every day had been filled with love and joy between he and his bride. Knowing that they were going to be together forever gave the married couple a high like no other. This pleasure was only increased by the fact that they could now have a family. He could have children with the woman he loved, thanks to the ritual Eternity had performed the night of their wedding.
The higher order ritual had been a quick affair, just a bit of blood from each Mikealson mixed with Eternity’s which was then consumed by Elijah and his siblings. It turned out that her blood was the agent that changed the dark magic of which created the Originals so that they were not only stronger, faster, more impervious, but so that they could have families of their own if they so chose. The ethereal woman’s blood also changed the genetic makeup of the non-immortals of his family to make them stronger, more invulnerable - not quite immortal, but certainly longer lived.
Training commenced for all of them by the well equipped superhuman soldiers from the Underground Agency, except for Elijah whom was taught how to use and control his stronger abilities by his beautiful wife. It had been tough at first, especially with the intense martial arts training where they sparred,but not because he had trouble mastering his newfound powers. No, it was their mutual intense attraction to his bride that made things difficult. 
Sometimes he would end up pinning Eternity to the floor or she would pin him and they would end up forgetting that they were training completely, giving into their carnal needs. It actually grew out of control for a while on both their parts in these sensual distractions.
So, a rewards system was devised by his lady to give Elijah motivation to maintain control of his desires for Eternity while they were in teacher-student mode. If he managed to achieve whatever training goals she set for the day, then she’d reward him with her body. It worked wonderfully, especially whenever his wife reminded him of the fact that they could conceive. Not that he could forget.
Speaking of conceiving, Elijah had hoped that they would do so quickly after marrying as he wanted a child with Eternity more than anything. However, three years into their marriage and Eternity had yet to fall pregnant. He was disappointed that it was taking so long, but also understood that these things did take time, and he did enjoy the endless attempts at conception with his bride. So he tried to be patient, knowing that his wishes would be granted eventually.
In the meantime, to combat his baby fever, he took enjoyment of helping out his sister Rebekah, whom had conceived her first child, little Elle, with Marcel quickly, after Eternity had performed the higher order ritual. And then there was Hope as well, of whom he loved to spend time with. He was certainly an attentive uncle, practice for when he finally became a father himself.
Then one day, Elijah returned to the loft in Algiers, where he had made his home with his lady, having come from the Mikaelson compound after taking the ten year old Hope out to ice cream, and found Eternity waiting for him at the top of the entryway stairs. She was absolutely glowing and had a mysterious smile stretched across her pink rose lips,as she watched him ascend the steps toward her.
“Welcome back, my love,” she grinned widely, as if she were excited about something or other.
Curious, he approached her quickly, coming to stand before her on the last stair. He had his hopes, of course, as to the meaning behind her strange behavior, but didn’t want to jump on the bandwagon, in case it was something else that had her excited. 
“Good afternoon, Sweetheart,” Elijah greeted her with a smile. “To what do I owe this front door greeting?”
Eternity reached out and cupped the sides of his face lovingly, before bending forward to kiss him briefly. 
Elijah could hear her quickened heart beat and her hands were trembling slightly too as they held his face. These observations made the Original even more curious as to what was going on. His hopes lifting higher.
He quickly found out the big mystery as his wife pulled away and beamed at him, “Elijah, a most wonderful thing has happened,” she said as she took one of his hands and put it against her abdomen. 
Elijah looked at his hand and immediately realized what she meant. His wishes had been granted! His gaze lifted to hers again with a wide eyed look of realization. He tried to speak, but found himself temporarily speechless. 
“We are going to have a baby,” Eternity told him joyously, knowing he’d be excited by the news.
As if suddenly brought to life, he instantaneously had his wife swept up into his arms and spun her around the room in happiness, while he laughed in a way that he didn’t think he ever had. Then he set the giggling woman down on her feet and kissed her all over her face, lastly upon her lips. 
Finally, he thought. At last, he was going to be a father!
“I love you so much,” he whispered emotionally against Eternity’s lips, before pulling back to gaze into her eyes. “You have brought such light into my dark existence and that of my family. You’ve given us, in part, a new lease on life. I never thought that I would have a wife or be a father, but here I am, both. Even Niklaus had found new purpose, a better one, thanks to you.”
“Aye, it does seem like I have a new ally in your brother,” replied Eternity. “Ever since his stay with the agents of the Underground, he has become something of an enemy turned hero. He has found a new purpose as a one of them in these recent years, going on missions with his new, stronger abilities, to aid them. Quite the change.”
Elijah nodded, grasping the sides of her face tenderly between his hands, “Everything is different now, for the better, and I hope that none of us ever return to the darkness of before.”
“I hope for the same. I’ve grown fond of the Mikaelson clan,” she smiled. “I look forward to our child having a close knit family of aunts and uncles, nieces and nephews, in an environment that isn’t completely dysfunctional.”
“As do I, but more so, I cannot wait to raise this child and any others we might have, together,” he beamed. “Raising a family with you is a joy I never thought I’d have, but one I wouldn’t trade it for anything. I love you. God, I love you!”
He kissed her again. This time, it was more passionately. The joyous moment carried him away as he lifted Eternity into his arms again and carried her to the bed, where he promptly proceeded to make love to her in celebration. 
Three months after receiving that wonderful news and Elijah was a doting father-to-be in caring for his pregnant wife and checking the condition of their unborn child. He was always touching her rounded belly, feeling the baby move around inside with such pride. He made sure Eternity wanted for nothing, doing everything in his power to ensure she was well cared for in her delicate condition. This was especially true when it came to her food intake. 
After he had caught her trying to eat a half gallon tub of ice cream for breakfast one day, of which he had swiftly stopped Eternity from doing, he had made it his mission to make sure she ate nutritiously. He cooked for her all the time, making her favorite meals, or if she was having a particular craving, he’d make her that. 
Eternity seemed to appreciate his efforts to look after her, finding it attractive instead of annoying. It actually made her rather amorous and he often found himself at the mercy of an incredibly turned on pregnant immortal as a result. He swore she was going to kill him with how often she sought his attentions, but he certainly wasn’t complaining. He gave her all the intimacy she craved and then some.
Yes, Elijah had been living in complete bliss, but then as all happy moments seemed to, things took a turn.
It had begun when one afternoon, he received a visit from a new apparition while he was out in the Quarter, getting a special treat for Eternity. This came after not receiving such strange visitations since right before his marriage to his lady. Because of a lack of occurrences, he had forgotten about the odd happenings in his blissful new life.
This new apparition has appeared in the form of Katherine Pierce aka Katerina Petrova, one of his ancient loves. He had heard years ago of her death and had grieved for her momentarily, but it had been overshadowed by his adventures with Niklaus in New Orleans and he never mourner properly as a result. 
When she appeared, it had been beside him while he was doing business with a street vendor. “Hello, Elijah,” Katherine had greeted him with a cool, unpleasant smile.
Surprised, he had turned to stare at her, before he relaxed and returned her unfriendly smile with one of his own. “Why, if it isn’t Katherine Pierce. Come to warn me of the word your new ally are going to unleash upon me?” He mockingly said. “Seems like your new boss is all talk and no action, as they say.”
“Oh, the woes and misery promised are still coming, Elijah,” she responded cheerily, “but it’s just that there’s been a change of plans. I am actually here to warn you that my ‘ally’ as you call him is actually coming back from the dead and I am coming with him. Once we do, the real fun shall begin as we take great enjoyment in tearing down everything that you have built for yourself and for your family. Enjoy your happy new life now, because soon it will be turned to ash.”
Before Elijah could even respond to Katherine’s threat, she vanished with her cruel laugh echoing on the wind. 
He did his best not to let it bother him, but he remained vigilant in the days that passed afterward, ready for whatever might come. He made sure his family and Eternity were ready as well, knowing that the threat was upon all of them. 
Then halfway through the fourth month of his wife’s pregnancy, a different foe decided to come crawling out of the shadows to make a move against them finally. The fiendish Bruno had come to collect on the prize he sought, after being quiet for years. 
It had happened when the madman showed up at the Mikaelson compound out of nowhere, without warning, which prompted Rebekah to call Elijah and tell him to get over there. He had been at home with Eternity and once his wife had learned of what was going on, she insisted on going, despite his protests to keep her safe at the loft.
“You need to trust that I will keep the baby safe,” his wife told him. “I won’t let anything terrible happen to either of us. I promise!”
Though he retained his reservations, Elijah relented and together, they went to the compound to face their foe. 
By the time they arrived, Eternity’s mad brother had Hope in his grasp and the Mikaelson clan stood around him, held at bay by the threat he posed to the child. They already looked as if they had gone into battle with the insane immortal. Each member of Elijah’s family were battered, so they probably attempted to use their new abilities to defeat Bruno, but found he was still too much for them to handle, yet still managed to hold their own with their greater strengths.
Eternity took the lead immediately as the queen she was, stepping into the proverbial ring with her older brother. “Let the child go, Bruno,” she beckoned him with authority. “If you do not, then I’ll have no choice but to end you. Stand down and perhaps we can seek a better solution instead of this...nonsense.”
Bruno grinned manically as Hope struggled in his grasp and looking pleadingly at Eternity. Then without a word, the bastard began to drain the young girl of her powers. The red headed child began to glow bright blue and she screamed in agony as he did.
“He’s going to kill her!” Hayley shrieked from the sidelines,being held back by an equally panicked Niklaus. 
Elijah watched worriedly, knowing that his wife would never allow that, but was deeply concern with what she planned on doing. She had said that she’d protect their unborn child and herself, but he didn’t understand just how she was going to do that without taking up her sword. 
It was then that the answer came as he watched her shift forms, becoming the Universal Queen. 
In blinding white light did this rarely seen version of his lady appear. Eternity shone brilliantly in her white gown and sparkling diamonds and amethysts. Her white starburst birthmark centered upon her forehead glowed as her unicorn horn did and hummed the same as well. The sight was familiar to him, but he remained wary, especially faced with this rare sight.
It was then that Elijah noticed a difference that he hadn’t seen the last time he had witnessed the Universal Queen. Queen Eternity held her hands as if she were holding a medium sized ball, but between them hovered a glowing starburst shaped object that Elijah concluded was the mysterious Unicorn Crystal, the greatest power source in two universes.
He also recalled what it could do to Eternity, if she used it.
Elijah was alarmed. She couldn’t! 
As he panicked, his wife looked back at him and sent a telepathic message to him.  Her words echoed through his mind, saying, “Elijah, listen carefully. I have to use the power of the crystal to defeat Bruno. I have no other choice. I can not erase him from our lives as I had the Hollow, for he is a different breed of monster, not so easily subdued. However with a bit of the crystal’s might, I can do so. 
“This means that you’re going to have to look after us, the baby and myself. I’m not going to remember anything for a while. Therefore, it is up to you to be our guardian; to love and protect us with everything you have. Never forget that I love you, no matter what, always and forever. See you soon, my love.”
It felt more like a goodbye than anything and that had Elijah distraught to no end. Yet, he could do nothing to stop his powerful lady. He could only trust that she knew what she was doing, something he was struggling to do. He didn’t want her to go, didn’t want her to forget him.
As he watched on, the ethereal woman turned back to her opponent.
“I am the Universal Queen, Queen Eternity,” shouted Eternity as a blustery surge of energy kicked up from the power she was wielding. “I sentence you to a fate of nonexistence for the malicious murders you have committed while in this mortal world and the attempted murder committed here today! Be gone, evil one, and never plague this existence ever again!”
The end happened quickly. A large burst of white energy engulfed Bruno, Hope, and Eternity, blocking them from the sight of the Mikaelson clan that held onto their breaths in worry. Panic ensued as none of them knew what was happening, not even Elijah. He could not see or sense their family members lost in consuming energy. They were simply gone.
Hayley could be heard weeping, along with Kol and Freya, as the thought of losing their loved ones started to become a very possible reality for them.
Elijah immediately felt the terror set in that something had gone terribly wrong. He wanted to break down and weep for what he was sure the great loss of his niece, his wife, and his unborn child. However, this only lasted a moment as he began to sense two life forces, One was small, but strong, while the other was weak, yet steady.
The blinding light vanished suddenly, revealing an unharmed Hope and Eternity reverted to her non-queenly self. There wasn’t any sign of Bruno and Elijah concluded that he had been obliterated by the formidable power of his lady, much in the same way the Hollow had been upon the pale beauty’s return to his life. 
Except that this was different from then, he soon discovered. 
As he rushed over to Eternity, to ensure that she was alright, while the others tended to Hope, he immediately realized that something wasn’t right. She stared at him with uncertainty, almost as if she didn’t recognize him as he neared. She shied away as Elijah reached to touch her and bowed her head defensively as if she had her horn to warn him off with. Immediately did he back off, unsure of what to do. 
“Who are you?” Eternity demanded, looking around her wildly. “Who am I? Where?”
It was then that he recognized what was going on. Eternity had entered a reboot, as she had once called it, from using the Unicorn Crystal. However, what didn’t make sense to him was why she hadn’t reverted to her basest self - the unicorn? She had told him that if she used too much of the crystal’s power, she returned to her unicorn roots and forgot herself completely. It seemed the latter had taken hold, but not the former. Elijah didn’t know what that meant, but he did know he needed to help her.
“It’s alright,” he told her gently. “You don’t need fear me or anyone here. We’re family.”
Eternity gazed curiously at him, still wildly uncertain of anything. One of her hands reached to touch her forehead in confusion as she tried to figure out what was happening, while the other grazed her round pregnant belly. Her eyes widened in surprise and then horror as they fell upon the protrusion, then up at him.
“What sorcery is this?” She said trembling, panic taking hold. “What is going on? What has happened to me?
Sighing deeply, Elijah carefully approached her, placing a hand over hers that instinctively cradled her rounded belly. “I’m your husband, Elijah,” he cooed to her, smiling softly, “and you are my wife, Eternity. We’re going to have a baby together soon, you and I.”
His lady shrank back, shaking her head as if she didn’t believe him as she backed away.
It stung for her to do so, but Elijah was patient and understanding, knowing that she was suffering a crisis. Yet, he began to panic as instinct screamed at him that Eternity was about to run. It was obvious in the taunt way age held herself. It was clear in her wide, frightened eyes. Like before when she had used the crystal, he felt helpless to stop her, even with his upgrades in power and speed.
Then before Elijah could even get the words out to appeal to her, to keep her there, she vanished without a trace.
“Eternity!”
His desperate voice reverberated, but was met with silence. 
Eternity was gone....
The End
