Elijah stormed into the house and saw Greta pushing a woman up against the wall, with her hand shoved into the woman's chest, likely grasping her heart. A moment later he locked eyes with the woman and he felt something. Some sort of instinct to protect this woman that he didn't even know. Then she spoke.

"Elijah" She said softly, sounding relieved, perhaps she thought he was there for her. While he wasn't, if he had learned anything from his memory loss it was to follow his instincts, so Elijah did just that. Using his vampire speed he rushed up behind Greta and thrust his hand around her heart and squeezed slightly.

"Release the girl or I will remove your heart," he said. Greta released her grip on the girls heart and the girl dropped to the floor gasping.

"Run" he said, the girl nodded and fled somewhere in the house. Only then did Elijah release his grip on Greta. She immediately turned and smacked him.

"We were so close to what we want," she seethed.

"I will not condone the killing of an innocent woman. That woman was not fighting against you, she was accepting her fate, to me that is the mark of an innocent woman. Hand me your daylight ring, now. Unless you want me to tell Antionette what you have really been doing here," he said.

"Never," she responded.

"Than I shall have to take it from you," he said and immediately reached out and snapped Greta's neck. He than dragged her into a spot that would stay shady until nighttime and removed her ring. He nodded at his so-called brother who was focused on his daughter, now that the threat to the woman, his daughter's mother, had passed. He found the woman hiding in one of the bedrooms and handed her the ring.

"Here, this will allow you to go out in the sunlight. Take it and go be with your daughter" he said as he handed her the ring.

"Thank you," she spoke, sliding the ring onto her finger. She immediately tested it by slightly pulling the bedroom curtain back and placing her hand in the sunlight, when nothing happened she smiled. The two of them then made their way downstairs, where her daughter was now awake.

"Mom!" She cried and the woman rushed to hug her daughter. Klaus then hugged them both before fleeing. It was in that moment that Elijah knew he needed his memories back, to know what this woman was supposed to mean to him and so that he could fight to make sure that Klaus would one day be reunited with his daughter. He knew what it was like to not have any family-although he technically did, he did not like to think of himself as a Mikaelson, though he supposed that may change.

He approached the woman, as he got closer, her daughter ran. He raised an eyebrow in question.

"She can't be near you, some world destruction or whatever," she said. Elijah nodded.

"I suppose I knew you before I lost my memory," he said. The woman nodded.

"You could say that," she said.

"Do you know who took my memory?" he asked her. At her nod he continued, "would you please tell them that I believe it is necessary for me to have my memory back and where they can reach me," he said as he wrote down his number. Then he vanished.

I know this is a little short but it was bouncing around in my head after 5.06. I may continue this if enough people want me to.
