| I am very happy that one of my favorite shows is returning after its mid-season finally.The show that will be returning is The Originals on January 19 at 8pm. This show is a spin-off of another show I treasure, The Vampire Diaries. It tells the story of what the original family, the first vampires, do after leaving the town, mystic falls, the setting in The Vampire Diaries. Klaus Mikaelson returns to the city he built, known as New Orleans, after hearing rumors that a witch was plotting a move against him. Only to discover that he bore a child with a werewolf named Haley. Everyone that knew was astonished to find out that the hybrid Klaus, vampire and werewolf, would be a father. In its first season Klaus and his brother try to protect their unborn child and Haley from the witches and a vampire named Marcel. Klaus first came upon Marcel when Klaus and his family were on their way to bury the mill, one of the governor's sons, when Klaus saw Marcel, a boy being beaten for no reason. This reminded Klaus of how his father would beat him. He then watched as Marcel, after having enough, saw an apple and retaliated by throwing it at the white man, the man beating him. Klaus saw the look in the boys eyes. It was as if the child won a war with one pebble. The white man then grew anger and was about to whip him as hard as he could when Klaus ran with his vampire speed and threw another apple, but at the white mans head with his vampire strength. The white man was then killed, in an instant. Klaus then asked the boy what his name was, but he told Klaus he did not have one. He told Klaus that his mother said she wouldn't name him till he was ten, but his mother was taken away before then. So Klaus named the boy Marcelous from mars, the god of war; it meant little warrior. From that moment on Klaus treated and loved Marcel as if he were his own son. Sadly this love did not live on because when Klaus, his family, and Marcel went to New Orleans, Klaus's father had found them and used Marcel as bait to get Klaus's attention, so he may kill him. But it didn't go as Mikael, Klaus's father, had hoped. Klaus chose to leave Marcel and save his family after Mikael burned the place with Marcel inside. this was not an easy decision for Klaus. After returning to New Orleans he not only discovered that he had a child but that the little boy that he raised and turned was still living and had rebuild New Orleans. Marcel also had become king to all vampires in New Orleans and set many rules. Such as, all werewolves in the quarter would be killed. This is why Klaus had to protect Haley from Marcel. Klaus did |
