Rebekah and Aya

The relationship between Original vampire, Rebekah Mikaelson, and the vampire, Aya Al-Rashid.
The relationship between the two vampires is very antagonistic, especially since Aya destroyed Rebekah's written copy of a spell to resurrect her brother Kol, killed her witch vessel, and stabbed her in the heart with a cursed stake made by the Moroccan Witch.
==History==
Little is known about Rebekah and Aya's history, though it can be assumed by their attitudes in Beautiful Mistake that they have known each other for centuries. Rebekah also referred to Aya as "Elijah's ex" in Savior, making it likely that she has known Aya since Elijah sired her in the 15th century.
==Throughout The Originals Series==
In Beautiful Mistake, Aya (along with other members of The Strix) was sent by Tristan de Martel to travel to Marrakech, Morocco, where Rebekah was seeking out a witch to help her with a resurrection spell to bring her brother Kol back to life. Aya's mission was to take down Rebekah and bring her back to New Orleans so that The Trinity could use The Serratura to lock Elijah, Klaus, and Rebekah away forever, both to ensure the rest of the vampires' survival due to the sireline link and to punish the Mikaelsons for what they had done to them. Aya had one of her Strix cohorts distract Rebekah (who was still possessing Eva Sinclair's body) so she could easily slit Rebekah's throat, thereby killing Eva's body and preventing Rebekah from returning to it. Because of the nature of the possession spell, Rebekah then awoke in her true body as Aya intended. Furious at Aya for destroying her witch body, Rebekah starts to fight Aya and her many associates, and though Rebekah was significantly weakened due to her vampire body not having fed on blood in six months, she still managed to dominate the battle. However, just when more Strix members began to flood into the room to back Aya up, Freya appeared in the room by using astral projection and then used her telekinesis to snap the necks of every surviving vampire there, allowing Rebekah to get away.
Though Freya and Elijah insisted that Rebekah return home so they could fight the Strix together, Rebekah refused to do so until she got the resurrection spell from her witch contact, as she couldn't bear to come home with nothing to help her live up to her promise to bring Kol back from the dead. Rebekah and astral-Freya went to meet the Moroccan Witch at her home, where Rebekah found the spell on the table. However, when she picked it up to read it, it burned up in her hands as the Moroccan Witch used pyrokinesis to destroy the parchment. It is then revealed that the witch betrayed Rebekah by allying with Aya and The Strix, the former of whom appeared for round two. When Rebekah lunged for them, she was blocked by a boundary spell, much to her fury. Freya tried to help defend her sister, but the witch had also enchanted the home so that only she could perform magic, and the witch, on Aya's orders, cast a spell to send her astral body back into her physical one in New Orleans. Aya then pulled out a specially enchanted stake with skulls carved into the handle and admitted that while the stake wouldn't kill her, it would put her to sleep for "a very long time." Rebekah angrily threatened to kill her when she woke up, but Aya merely rolled her eyes and remarked that she doubted it, but that Rebekah was welcome to try. Aya then stabbed Rebekah in the heart with the stake, which quickly desiccated her and allowed Aya to put her body back in her coffin and bring her to the airport to leave for New Orleans.
