And, not to add fuel to anyone's fire. But, nobody here seems concerned with being spared. Comes with the 'you kidnapping them,' territory. And, for the record, I'm Florence. I'm on nobody's side here.
( Sorry, famous Hale. And, truthfully, Davina dies, there's more magic to grasp. Plus, she's innocent in all of this, really. She only double crossed Monroe the one time. And she wasn't supposed to know. Does that count? )
[Oh, Maura. That was likely not the right thing to say. Monroe had been ignoring her, intending to deal with her later, but if she's going to inject herself into the conversation, well.
"Are you really?" Monroe takes a step closer. "Because that's not how you pitched it to me, Maura."
And the way she says her name indicates that she might know more than Sierra wants her to know (19).]
( Both Derek (3) and Josh (5) only see the inflection as posturing, and perhaps lies on Monroe's part. They don't see anything underneath. But, Maura is new.
"Maybe my pitch needs work," she shoots back. )
Leave her out of this. What is it you really want, Monroe? What kind of example are you going to set?
[It's not hard for any of them to see the embarrassing way that Monroe's men are fleeing the cemetery right now. Cars are heading out of the gates, and another camera angle shows Elijah and Freya Mikaelson standing at the head of the mausoleum with the French Quarter witches as they watch them go.
Monroe clearly does not like this.
She grits her teeth. "The bayou?"
"We just got a report back. Allison Argent was there. She won't be a problem anymore. They burned the rest."]
[Monroe sets her shoulders, as a couple of hunters enter the room. She turns and points to Hawthorne, attached to the back of Derek's pillar. "It's time for him."
She then looks over to the other, and tips her head to the side. "Take Claire too."
Davina stares back at her, jaw set and determined.]
That really a fight you want to pick?
[Monroe glares back at her. "I'm sure of it."
And with that, the two hunters drag Terry and Davina out of the room, and Monroe leaves not far behind them.]
("There will only be something to be sorry about once we know there is. Monroe will say whatever she wants. She always has." Derek sticks to his guns. Allison isn't dead until it's proven. )
I don't know about you all, but I think we are wearing out our pitiful welcome. Anyone got a plan?
("We're stuck. Like, trap in a Saw sequel stuck," Josh says.
"We need to get to their witch," Derek says. )
While it's likely it's a witch, it's also likely there is something else in this room. Something overlapping the chains. Did you feel it?
("It feels like mountain ash," Derek remembers. "There's something else.")
Right. So. Either an object, tethering us all here because of a spell, or mountain ash we could see. ...Or, a witch on the wrong side of the picket line.
( She receives a wave in return. Fancy meeting like this Hayley. )
We need to find what's keeping a hybrid, a werewolf and a vampire? ( She guesses in Josh's direction. ) From breaking this chains. And fast. Why would they take Davina and Hawthorne?

She's here for the Mikaelsons. Weakening their defenses, crippling their allies, and then conquering, once and for all.
Davina shakes her head.]
You're all going to die. Pointlessly. I hope you realize that.
[The hunter with the laptop straightens up more. Perception checks, please.]

Killing their allies isn't a slingshot.

"Allison?" Josh asks, not knowing she was even here.
(16) for Sierra knowing exactly who Allison is. That's a big score for Monroe. )

And when the door closes, Hayley goes slack in the chains, before looking over at Derek with a sympathetic look.]
I'm sorry about Allison.

[Hayley's been catching up. She waves one hand awkwardly.]
How do you suggest we break our way out of this?

no subject
[It's what Hayley would do.]
And I think they already planned to make examples of all of us - she just moved up her time table with Davina.
no subject
( She's pretty familiar with NOLA witches.
"We have to get out of here," Josh says, meeting Hayley's eyes. )

[And then she grins that dangerous Mikaelson grin.]
And then we'll make them severely regret ever coming here.
