I`m back with the sequel!

This Chapter is kind of short. That is only because the first episode of The Originals is quite similar to the episode "The Originals" in the Vampire Diaries.

To you new reader`s: I would advise you to read "The Gilbert Wolf" first, or this chapter won`t make that much sense to you.

Enjoy!

I do not own The Originals, only my OC.

(I will start you off with what happened in the end of the last story.)

The New Beginning

Nik and I waited for our plane to be ready in the waiting hall at the airport. He had his arm wrapped around me and I leaned against his chest.

"Are you ok, Amy? I know it must have been hard to say goodbye to your brother all over again."

"Yeah it was but I know he`s ok. Everything is fine and I know he`ll always keep an eye on me wherever I go and that`s good and comforting to know."

Klaus suddenly lifted his head and looked at something. Then he smiled.

"I think it`s time for one more gift." I didn`t understand what he meant.

"But you`ve already given me something." I told him.

"Oh it`s not from me." Nik said and pointed behind us.

I looked and saw something I never expected. I rose from my seat, not believing what I saw.

"Is it room for one more in New Orleans?" The person in front of me said. Tears streamed down my face and I nodded.

Jeremy!

"Of course." I ran over to him and hugged him.

"But how is this possible?" I told him through my tears.

"Bonnie did a spell that brought me back to life and she wanted me to be where I needed to be and I want to be with my sister." Jeremy told me. I hugged him again and cried even more.

Nik had to break us apart. It was time to board the plane.

I was so happy. I was going to New Orleans with the two people I loved most in this world. I couldn`t believe Jeremy chose to stay with me but he did. We finally reached New Orleans and walked off the plane. Jeremy, Nik and I looked out over the city.

"Well, little brother." I said and wrapped my arms around him.

"Welcome to New Orleans."

I couldn`t believe I was in New Orleans with my brother and the man I love. Nik was still living in a hotel so we decided to stay there for the night. Of course, it the biggest suite in the hotel and Jeremy got his own room. I told him good night he was exhausted. I guess being brought back to life does that to you.

I put on my pajamas and brushed my teeth before I collapsed on the bed. Nik was standing over at window looking out on the city that once belonged to him.

"We`re going to get it back you know. Your city." I told him. Nik turned around and looked at me. He smiled at me and took of his clothes before climbing into bed with me.

"I know. It just seem simpler with you here." He said and stroked my stomach. It felt so nice.

"And I`m not going anywhere." I told him and caressed his face. I really had missed him. I don`t know if it was the hormones or what it was but I grabbed him and kissed him hungrily. Not that Nik was complaining.

Suddenly we heard someone talking from the other room.

"Could you not have sex when I`m trying to sleep in the next room?" Jeremy yelled through the wall.

I started laughing.

"Sorry Jeremy." I looked up at Nik.

"Sorry big boy. It`s not happening tonight." I kissed his pout and snuggled against him. Within seconds, I was out as a light.

The next morning Nik woke me up before nine. I was not in the mood for that.

"Do you not know how dangerous it is to wake up a wolf? A pregnant one at that." I told him.

"I`m sorry little wolf but we`re moving in to the new house today and we have a lot to do and I have to go and see Marcel. I bit one of his minions the night before I came to Mystic Falls. I have to save him in order to get his trust." I looked at my boyfriend.

"Really Nik? You shouldn`t go around biting people you know." I told him.

"Well, you don`t seem to mind it." I threw a pillow at him but I still didn`t get out of bed. Jeremy came out of the bathroom.

"I`ll handle this. Getting Amy up early in the morning is like trying to wake up the dead. You have to use force. Mainly I just flip her off the bed but I don`t want to hurt the baby." Jeremy picked up the pillow from the floor and threw it with all his force at my head. It almost knocked me off the bed.

"Jeremy! You are dead!" I jumped out of bed and wanted to run after him but Nik stopped me.

"As much fun that was, we really need to get going." He told me and kissed me tenderly.

"Fine. I`ll be ready in 15 minutes but we could say 30 if you joined me." I said to him not breaking eye contact. Nik took off his shirt.

"Hey Jeremy? Why don`t you play some X-box in your room for a while?" I asked him as Nik dragged me into the bathroom and turned on the shower.

45 minutes later, we drove to our new house. Or as I would say mansion. It was huge.

"It`s an old plantation." Nik explained to us as the mansion came to view.

"I could get use to this. I`m going to live like a king!" Jeremy told me and I started to laugh.

"Not a chance baby brother. YOU still have senior year of high school left and I`m enrolling you to the nearest school as soon as summer is over. You`re not 18 yet. I am your legal guardian."

Jeremy was sulking. He really thought living with me would be like a dance on roses. I wanted him to have a career to make something of himself. We walked into the house and it was even bigger on the inside.

"I`m really sorry to do this but I have to go and fix this thing with Marcel. Why don`t you pick out the bedroom and get things started? Elijah will come by in not so long ok."

I didn`t want him to go but I knew he had to. I gave him a kiss and he left in a hurry.

"Where did he go?" Jeremy asked me.

"He had some business in town to attend to. We should probably go upstairs and find ourselves some rooms." I said and gave him some bags. He still had his strength and I was pregnant. He should be carrying more than I should.

We walked upstairs and looked at the rooms. Jeremy picked the one in the end of the hallway and I chose the bigger room by the staircase as the master bedroom. I removed all the covers from the furniture and it was gorgeous.

The style was Victorian. The ceiling was decorated with some kind of art. The dresser was made of brown massive oak and so was the frame of the bed. The bed. A huge king-size bed in the middle of the room against the wall. All the other furniture looked old and all the room needed was some new curtains and a carpet on the floor. I opened the next double doors and it was our own private bathroom.

It had white tiles on the floor two bathroom sinks a nice shower and a huge bathtub. That would be used a lot preferably not alone. I thought to myself.

This was it. This would be our room.

I packed out our things and made it at cozy as I could with the little I had. We needed to get some help to fix this place up a bit.

After I had unpacked everything we needed in our room, I went down the hall to see Jeremy. He was being such a boy. He hadn`t unpacked anything at all. He was lying on his bed playing Xbox already.

"Really? That couldn`t wait? Jeremy, you have a lot of unpacking to do!" He looked at me once and then continued to play. I just threw my hands in the air and went downstairs to explore a little.

I went into what looked like something that could be a living room and took the cover of one of the things standing there. It was a crib. I coughed and sneezed as the dust hit my nose.

"Are you alright?" Elijah suddenly appeared in the doorway. A huge smile appeared on my face.

"It`s just dust. I`ll survive. Good to see you again Elijah." I told him and gave him a hug.

"Good to see you too Amy."

"This place is agent." I said and looked around at the decorations on the ceiling and walls.

"Yes it should serve our purposes. It`s a sanctuary from our business in the Quarter. Right now, you are the most important person in this family and you need a good home." I smiled at Elijah. He was so good to me.

"So I`m curious. Has anyone asked how you are doing?" Elijah asked me.

"Actually yes. Everyone back home has been supportive. They don`t know what`s going on here but they`ve been taking good care of me and Jeremy is so excited about being an uncle."

"Jeremy? I thought he had passed away." I smiled even wider.

"Bonnie brought him back and now he`s here with me."

"He`s here?" Elijah looked around. I nodded and pointed up.

"That noise you hear. Yeah, that`s my brother playing Xbox and not unpacking his things." Elijah listened and smiled even wider.

"That`s nice but that`s not what I was looking for. Has anyone asked you how it feels to become a mother?"

I stopped for a second. No one had asked me that before. I really didn`t know.

"To be honest. No. It`s just been too much for me to handle at this point but I am excited about being a mom. I can`t wait to see her or his face for the first time. Watch him or her grown up. I want the baby to have a stable home and I want to be as good as my mother was to me. Even though she wasn`t my real mother, Miranda Gilbert raised me and I want to honor her by protecting this child with all I`ve got." I smiled.

Elijah took the cover from me and tossed it aside.

"And I will always protect you. You have my word on that and I`m so glad you`re the one seeing my brother for what I know he can be."

"And noble Elijah always keeps his word." Nik said. That`s when I noticed him standing in the doorway. Elijah turned to look at him.

"Is it done?" He asks.

"As the matter of fact, yes. Your underhanded deal worked quite well. Marcel was too happy to accept my blood and my heartfelt apologies. His man Thierry yet lives and I remain a welcome guest in the French Quarter. My only concern now is this coven of impudent witches."

"I believe they are honorable. They released Amy to us. They could easily kept her with them but they know she`s safe with us. Although, they haven`t been entirely forthcoming. Marcel obviously have something they need. They don`t want him dead. There must be a reason why." Elijah told us.

I decided to check on my brother to see if he needed any help unpacking. I gave Elijah a hug and Nik a kiss before leaving them to go upstairs.

Jeremy was still playing on his Xbox when I got to his room.

"Do you need any help?" I asked after I knocked on his door.

"No not really." He said and focused on the game. It was some kind of shooting game.

"What the hell are you playing? You just walk around and kill stuff?" Jeremy paused the game.

"Yeah. It`s fun. Do you want to try?" He asked. I jumped on the bed next to him and tried to play as well. When I got the hang of it, it actually amused me. Jeremy and I played a team against flesh eating zombies. It was so much fun.

"Aaah! Jer! Watch out, they`re coming on your left! No, no! The other left!" I almost screamed at him. We sat like this for several hours. Nik came up after we played for an hour or so and told us he had to go out for a little bit but it was food in the kitchen. I climbed out of the bed and gave him a kiss.

"I love you. I told him.

"Love you too little wolf." He said before he left.

I complained to Jeremy about being hungry, so finally we got downstairs but we didn`t know where the kitchen was so we had to look for it. We walked down the hall and found it in the end. It was huge. Just like the rest of the house.

We found ourselves a lot of food and took it with us upstairs to eat and play games. I think we both needed a fun day. It was just 3 days ago, I thought he was dead and I never would see him again. The day went quickly. We never got the chance to unpack his things out and by the time it was dark outside, we both had fallen asleep whilst playing.

I woke up when I felt someone lift me off the bed. I looked up and saw Nik.

"Hey. What are you doing home so early? I thought you had so much to do." I said in a low voice.

"I have been gone for hours, love. It`s already midnight." Huh. I`ve been asleep for hours already. Nik opened the door to our new room. I think he liked it.

"You did a great job, sweetheart." He said and kissed my forehead. I found my pj`s and went to the bathroom to brush my teeth. Nik was already in bed when I got back. He looked tired. I sat down on my side of the bed and took off my watch and rings. I didn`t like to wear them when I was sleeping. Nik traced his fingers down my back making me shiver.

"How was your day with your brother?" He asked softly.

"The best. I can`t believe he`s here with me. It means so much to me." I turned against Nik.

"And I have you here with me. I can`t ask for more." I told him as Nik put some of my hair out of my face and place his hand behind my neck. He brought me closer to him.

"I love you." He whispered before kissing me. My hormones took control again and suddenly I was on top of him, pinning his arms down on the mattress.

"Well. I think I like these hormones of yours." Nik chuckled towards me.

"Oh, shut up." I told him and leaned down to kiss him.

I fell asleep that night with a huge smile on my face.

I had my brother sleeping in the end of the hall, the man I love next to me in bed and I was going to be a mom. Right now, everything seemed perfect. I snuggled closer to Nik and soon drifted off to sleep.

Little did I know, everything was about to get so much harder.

So. This isn`t the best start of the new story but it was so hard to write since the start of "The Originals" were so similar to the episode in "The Vampire Diaries."

The next Chapter will be much better. I promise.

Until Next time!
