Kol Mikaelson – Journey To The Multiverse - Chapter 6

=PART-1

It had been two days since most of the Mikaelson family had turned themselves into the original vampires and all of them spent this time adjusting to what they had now become, including Kol, who spent much of his time in the woods, alone.

After the incident, on Kol’s insistence, Astrid was turned into an original vampire along with Mikael. After all, he would soon leave home and he needed someone to do those odd jobs that he was too bothered to do on his own. An original vampire at you beck and call sounded pretty good in this cruel, dark age. Not to mention, men need women, no matter what time period.

After their transformation, Kol took blood samples from Mikael before his emotions could be overly affected from becoming a vampire.

In these two days, Kol had managed to learn to control his strength, quite well. He had discovered that one of the perks of his now, ‘new god physiology’ was, that he could alter his size to a certain extent and there was no need to use illusion on himself anymore.

Kol controlled his height to about six feet and then, used the permanent transfiguration magic on himself. Now he looked no different from before and neither did he feel any different, considering only the outer appearance.

Now Kol was very happy that he could finally get laid.

Kol had even told a believable story to his family about why his abilities were so different from the rest of his siblings, as he could not possibly tell them that he had now became a ‘new god’. The truth would be preposterous and even his sanity would be questioned. So, he simply made up a story of how he created an entirely new spell after studying the original immortality spell.

With all the new spells that he had allegedly created, it was quite believable that Kol created an another new spell that turned mortals into a new race called Kryptons.

Planet Krypton did not exist in this universe and if he had told them that the new spell turned humans into Kryptonians, then it would raise the question of what was Krypton in the first place. So, he just used a nonexistent planet’s name to define a yet to appear new race.

Kol had the codex of life, which he would eventually use, so it was best to prepare ahead. This way, the people would not think that a new race came out of nowhere, all of a sudden. It was better for it to appear in the viking era, compared to modern times.

By doing this, Kol linked the origins of ‘vampires’ and a new, yet to appear race, ‘Kryptons’, together. His siblings would help him spread the stories for a thousand years. During which time, he could further his plans and perhaps, create a few loyal Kryptons when he figured out how to use the codex.

In the future, for the modern public, the ‘Kryptons’, would be one of those races that only existed in people’s fantasies, legends and the myths, like the the vampires and the werewolves, but only a few people would know the real truth.

The night of the third day was a full moon and Niklaus turned into a werewolf for the first time. Apparently, he had given into his vampire urges and killed someone, which activated his werewolf curse.

Mikael learned of Esther’s secret that she had hidden from their family for years. Now it had not been long since Mikael turned into a vampire and his emotions were not as affected. Still, there was no telling how he would react to this situation and Niklaus, who was the very result of Esther’s indiscretion.

=PART-2

The very next day. The sun had already set and Kol was currently walking home, after his daily routine.

Not long after, he came across a clearing, not unlike the one where he usually practiced, and saw something that made him quite angry.

He saw his father, Mikael and Elijah, forcefully holding down Niklaus against a wooden structure. Their mother, Esther was not much farther, sitting by the fire and casting a spell. The fire was swaying strangely along with her chant.

Kol remembered this scene from the T.V show. It was when Mikael was overwhelmed with shame after learning of Esther’s indiscretion and forced her to seal Niklaus’s werewolf side.

————Scene -An Act Of Benevolence.

Kol walked towards the clearing in a hurried pace, as suddenly shouted, “Father! Elijah! What are you two doing? Stop this madness, this instant.”

Mikael, then shouted back, “Boy! How dare you command me! Don’t interfere in the things that you don’t understand. Go home, before I make you.”

At this point, Mikael had lost all reason and he was completely controlled by his anger and pride, that was heightened after he became a vampire.

Mikael was a prideful person and his pride was heightened, to the level where he would not listen to reason anymore.

Kol knew that he would eventually find a way to eliminated this particular side effect and now he had the eternity to figure it out.

At this point, Kol had stopped talking to Mikael and started doing hand signs.

Suddenly, he pushed his hand forward and a magic circle materialized itself out of thin air in front of his raised hand. It was facing towards the bonfire, where Esther was sitting.

Starting from the magic circle, where Kol was, the cold spread quickly and reached the bonfire in a couple of second. Then, the bonfire was put out and Esther’s spell was broken.

Esther screamed suddenly and passed out, because of the backlash.

At this point, Mikael shouted at Kol with everything he had, “Boy! What have you done!?”, as he drew his sword and started running towards Kol with his vampire speed.

Mikael appeared in front of Kol in a blink of an eye and stabbed the sword towards his stomach. Apparently, he wanted to teach Kol, an extremely painful lesson.

On the other hand, Niklaus, who had just gotten free, suddenly shouted, “Father! No!”.

Kol didn’t have the super speed, but he was still faster than vampires as he had the ‘new god physiology’. He also had super reflexes that could capture objects moving at light speeds.

In the end, Kol chose to not move at all. Suddenly, the sound of iron striking iron rang out, and everyone was stunned. Mikael had forgotten his anger as well and was staring at his sword with widened eyes.

Mikael was expecting Kol to dodge, so he had put a lot of effort behind that strike, but in the end, the sword broke when it collided with Kol’s invulnerable body. It could not harm him at all.

Kol looked straight at Mikael and spoke, “Did I not tell you, father? Kryptons are invulnerable. You have lost all reason. This is enough tantrum. Get it together.”

Then, Kol walked towards his siblings as he suddenly spoke, “Niklaus! Elijah! Follow me home.”.

Elijah replied, “Kol! But mother, she..”.

Before he could finish that sentence, Kol interrupted, “She’s just passed out due to spell backlash. She will be fine. Father will carry her home. Follow me. This is important.”.

At this point, Mikael had cooled down a bit, but he was still angry as he interjected, “Boy! Don’t you walk away from me..”

Kol then interrupted before Mikael could finish, “Father! I am leaving home.”.

Mikael suddenly spoke, “Does it have to be right now?”.

After a short silence, Kol replied, “Yes! It does!.”.

Then Kol continued, “We have the eternity now. We will meet again, someday.” Then, he started walking home. Niklaus and Elijah followed behind and Mikael did not stop them this time. He walked towards Esther, in order to carry her home.

All the grievances and anger could come later. Now, Mikael was going to say goodbye to his dearest son.

On the other hand, Kol had successfully used Mikael’s heightened grief and melancholy in Niklaus’s favor. He had saved his werewolf side from being sealed.

It was not that Mikael was easily controlled, or overly emotional. In fact, if it was anyone else, Mikael would not even care that much. He was very strict and his pride made him have a one track mind. He could be vary cruel and merciless, in order to achieve his goals.

The only reason that Kol could get to him was because of how much impact he had on his father compared to anyone else. He had started to see him as his real father and Kol was very bit the child that Mikael ever wanted.

Concerning Niklaus’s werewolf curse, Kol knew that time had a certain inertia to it, and nobody could know what would happen after he left. At best, he had given Niklaus some time, but he had already done his part. This was the best he could do.

Both Elijah and Niklaus would remember this incident, forever. Niklaus would not be so distrustful to everyone and Elijah would always carry regret with himself for nearly teaming up with his father against his dear brother because of his own fear and cowardliness. Elijah would be thankful to Kol for his interruption.

It was late at night and all his siblings had returned home. The family had gathered outside the village as everyone said their goodbyes.

Before leaving, Kol made all his siblings promise that they would stick together, no matter what. Always and forever. They tried to stop him, but he had the perfect excuse that he was going out to learn more magic, so that one day, he could find a way to turn them all back into human beings again.

Kol had told them that the unsubstantial spell he created could only be used on human beings. After all, Kol did not want any of them asking him to turn them into Kryptons. At this point, none of them wanted to be a vampire.

That told, even if Kol was that generous, he only had enough Darkseid’s blood essence for one transformation, not to mention that doing so would be utterly foolish. From the very beginning, his goal was to become the strongest in this world, not to make other people as strong as he was, even if they were his own family.

During these few days, everyone had discovered their weaknesses and side effects for becoming a vampire. Since Esther had not yet invented the daylight ring that helped them walk in the sun, it was easy to convince them.

In the end, Kol and Astrid packed a light luggage and left the village. Nobody knew when they would reunite again, but they were sure that they would, someday, as they had all the time in the world.
