I am in legacies

Just as shit was about to go down, Jacob's figure appeared before Hope, protecting penelope.

"Jacob, get out of the way!" Hope calmly said. Her eyes not leaving penelope.

" Hope, I understand how you feel but I can't let you pass with that expression on your face." Jacob also replied calmly, his face grim and serious, with eyes starting to glow the familiar golden hex, ready to stop Hope at all cost.

Both penelope and Hope were important to Jacob, he couldn't let them fight, ( well, there won't be much of a fight as an Mikaelson will just rip the poor penelope apart ).

But Jacob also know how this school has become a home to Hope. He knows she will regret it terribly if she killed one of her own after she snapped out of her revenge mood.

But, Alas, the Mikaelson's revenge trait has been tricked and it is awoken. All that Hope see now is red, all other feelings are out of the window.

" Didn't you see what she did, SHE ALMOST KILLED HIM JACOB!!" shouting Hope, with her inner beast roering voice also mixing in.

" He's the one that is almost killing us, it is his fault that Josie is now buried by her own mother!!" penelope shouted also, showing her fearsome.

" He knows that the monster comes for the knife and they will do anything to get it, instead of seeking help from other supernatural groups or way better, getting rid of the damn thing. He doesn't. He keeps it in the school ground, knowing there are still children in the school, children who turn out that they don't know any offensive spells for defence because we are forbidden to learn them, children who are still scared of most of their supernatural potential because we are always kept in hiding. So yeah he deserve this!" said penelope, her breath high.

Hope's eyes burned a glowing yellow as she approached Penelope again almost launching at her, her voice low and dangerous. "Watch what you are saying, Penelope! He's Josie's father! How do you think she'd feel if she saw this?" Her fangs peeked through as she snarled, though she tried to keep her calm.

Penelope's breath hitched, but she steadied herself, her eyes never leaving Hope's glowing ones. She kept her hand out, ready to cast another spell if needed. "And where was he when Josie needed him, huh?" she snapped, her voice shaking with a mixture of rage and worry.

"He should've been protecting her! He failed her, just like he always does! And always will." The words tumbled out, and for a moment, her confidence wavered. She was scared—scared for Josie and her future, scared of herself for caring so much, but now mostly scared that a certain Mikaelson teenager might rid her small acute head off.

" Look Hope, She didn't kill him." Jacob shouted back, infusing his mana on his vocal cord to increase his voice intensity. "she didn't mean to. Right?!" Jacob said as he looked back at penelope with signalling eyes.

" she was just taken away by anger, Hope, just like how you are letting anger control you now!" Jacob continued to persuade to the furious Hope.

" Get out of the way Jacob, I won't tell you again" Hope didn't hear none of that, she said with a dangerous smirk appearing on her lips, showing canine teeth.

Seeing the result of his persuading, Jacob sighed, and got into a combat format. Ready to face the angry tribrid, however just as they about to clash, MG shouted at them.

"Hey!!Josie is still somewhere underground, slowly suffocating. Are we really gonna focus on fighting each other?!" Said MG.

This sentence brought some clarity power to Hope, her eyes slowly returned to normal, although still containing some gruesome but not to the previous extent of wanting to shred a fellow student to pieces.

When Jacob saw this, his galaxy-blue eyes seemed to pulse with residual magic, his voice warm but sharp. "Yes, MG is right. This isn't the time to turn on each other." He glanced over his shoulder at Penelope, then he set his gaze to Hope again, softening slightly. "We need to find Josie. She's the priority."

Hope gaze went back to Dr Saltzman, who was still having a hard time breathing but seem he will survive. Then looked at Penelope for a moment then nodded, though the fire in her eyes hadn't completely faded. "We'll split up. MG, go check near the old crypt. Penelope, head toward the lake." She turned to Jacob, her expression softening ever so slightly. "You and I will check the woods. There's a clearing nearby where Bio-ma could've taken her." Then she went into the forest.

The moment she left, Jacob felt his legs weakening and he almost squated down right there. He down a deep breath while mumbling " Fuck! I was nearly ripped to pieces".
