A/N: I own absolutely nothing! I just kept thinking about this story while reading other fan-fictions so I thought I might as well write it out. Pre Warning this will be a little ooc and not follow the way the Originals or the Vampire Diaries went. I also have no beta so sorry for mistakes!
A/N: Things to know: Stefan and Caroline never dated, Caroline disappears after turning off her humanity, the others were too busy defeating some new big bad. Caroline also never had the twins. After the town settles down from the big bads defeat the Scooby gang start their search for Caroline, only to find nothing but dead ends. That's when they head to New Orleans to ask the Original Hybrid for help. Once there they end up in the middle of The Originals drama dealing with the Hollow. After a spell gone wrong by Bonnie and Freya knocks out both groups. Bonnie, Stefan, Elena, Damon, Freya, Hope, Hayley, Rebecca, Elijah, Marcel and Klaus wake up in a dark and dampened room.
Chapter 1:
As if they all shared a breath everyone in the room sat up from the floor with a gasp at the same time. In another second Klaus was on his feet, holding Bonnie by the throat. " What the bloody hell did you do!?" He shouts in her face. Bonnie claws at his hands in protest, trying to breath. Elena and the Salvatore brothers are there in an instant trying to pry him off her but it isn't till he hears his sister Freya's voice chime in that he releases her. "It wasn't her brother I would have sensed it if it had been." As Klaus turns he takes in the state of his family. His sister Rebecca is helping Freya off the ground while his brother Elijah is standing beside Hayley as she checks over Hope. In an instant he is there helping her as well, then lifting Hope into his arms.
"Then what did happen dear sister?" Asks Elijah as calm and collected as ever.
"Yeah, I am kind of wondering the same thing here. Our spell should have banished the Hollow, not knock us out and send us gods knows where?" Bonnie turns to Freya as she asks. She is still rubbing her neck from Klaus's grip with the others still crowding around her, ready to help if Klaus attacks again.
"I'm not quite sure, but something tells me the spell worked. Just maybe not how we thought it would. First we need to find out where the hell we are and what exactly the spell did." Freya starts to head to what looks to be a boarded up window with very little light coming through, Stefan follows her and starts to pull the boards down. The others head over to peer outside only Rebecca hears the gasp behind them. She turns to see Elena staring at what seems to be a portrait on the wall. "What could it be now you dramatic twit?" Rebecca says as she rolls her eyes and walks over to see what she is looking at. "Oh my!" Rebecca then exclaims.
The others have all halted their movement as they stare out at what seems to be an abandoned city street. "It doesn't look like anyone has walked this street in centuries! Where the hell are we?" Damon exclaims. "No Damon not where, but when?" They all turn to see Rebecca and Elena behind them holding up a torn and weathered portrait of Rebecca that was moments ago hanging up in their family home when they cast the spell.
Damon walks over to Elena as Marcel does the same to Rebecca, "This doesn't mean what you think it means. It can't! Time travel isn't real!" Damon says looking at the others for back up. "Yeah just like vampires, witches and werewolves don't exist !?" Marcel answers back. "Plus it explains why this town looks so abandoned." At that everyone starts to talk at once and over each other. Klaus , still holding Hope, walks back over to the window and peers out. "Then there is only one way to know for sure." He hears Stefan say and the others finally stop arguing. He turns to look at them raising an eyebrow. Elijah had taken Hayley in his arms, Damon doing the same with Elena as well as Marcel standing close to Rebecca trying to comfort her as well. Freya and Bonnie seemed to have been in the middle of a conversation when Stefan had spoken up. Stefan was standing at what seemed to be the door, he had already taken off the boards as the others fought amongst themselves and Klaus had been looking out the window with Hope.
"We can't just take out Hope there when we have no idea what is going on!" Hayley tells him. "So what you will keep her here? There is no food, no water and who knows what is going on out there in the world or if its even safe here? At least out there we can get answer and stick together to protect ourselves." Stefan continues to explain. Just as the others go to start arguing again Klaus finally speaks up. "He is right Hayley. The only way we can figure out what is going on and where, or when we are is to go out there for answers. Together we will protect Hope and get our family back home." The finality in his voice causes Hayley to frown but she sees the others start to nod and finally relents that they are right, even if she doesn't like it.
"Well lead the way then oh invincible leader." Damon adds after a silent pause. With a glare in his direction Klaus hands Hope to her mother and heads out the door. Stefan is right after him with a brief glance at the others, Bonnie and Freya go next. The others follow quickly after with Hope, Hayley and Elijah in the middle.
So far to Rebecca walking seemed to be quite useless. Everything around this town seemed to be without human or supernatural contact in years. "This place looks like it's straight out of a post apocalyptic movie." Elena says with a shiver running down her spine as the pass another abandoned car in the middle of the road. "What could have caused for everyone to abandoned the city like this?"
"Hmm maybe the world finding out supernaturals exist and starting an all out war with them?" Marcel says as he looks at a faded sign in a window. "FIGHT THE WAR! SAVE HUMANITY!" it read in bold letters with the faded image of what one would assume was a staked vampire. "Oh my god! It's true then? We really have gone to the future!" Bonnie says running to look more closely at the sign. "Man I knew the world would end one day, just didn't think I would actually get to see it." Damon says trying to lighten the group a little, though it doesn't work. "People have to still be alive though! We need to find people and figure out how to get back!" Hayley says. "Hayley we don't know who won this war, or if anyone did for that matter." Elena says, the fear in her voice almost tangible. "Then we find what is left of witches grimoire and find a way home." Freya answers and sends a pointed look at the others to continue walking.
