"You've had your time!" yells Davina, throwing Klaus back into the water with her magic.

"No, he hasn't," Davina hears someone say, walking up behind her. She turns around, her eyes widening at the sight of the woman in front of her. But before she can say or do anything, said woman mumbles something under her breath, causing Davina to fall to the ground with a thud.

"But you have," she says, stepping over Davina's unconscious body.

Marcel and Hayley both speed over to attack the unfamiliar witch, only to get thrown back by her magic. The witch simply rolls her eyes. "Relax, she's fine. Besides, she'll forgive me later."

She then walks over to where Klaus is, kneeling down beside the pool.

"Nik, you okay?"

Klaus looks up at the young witch, not believing that she's actually here. "You came," he says softly, still in shock.

"That doesn't answer my question, Nik.

Klaus sighs. "Yes, Bonnie, I'm fine." He then smiles. "You got here just in time."

Bonnie gets up, putting her hands on her hips. "Did you seriously doubt that I wouldn't?" She then offers her hand to Klaus, which he gratefully accepts, proceeding to get out of the pool.

"Maybe."

Bonnie smacks his wet shoulder. "When have I ever let you down?"

Klaus merely chuckles. "Calm down love. I'm just messing with you." He then gazes at her intently, his voice soft, as he adds, "You're the person who's never let me down, and who I know will never let me down."

"Okay, how about you save all of this for Caroline?" She then dramatically gasps, realizing her mistake. "Oh wait, you're in love with Cami now!"

"Do shut up."

"If you the two of you are done," growls Hayley, bringing Bonnie and Klaus out of their own little world, "maybe you can tell me who the hell you are," she narrows her eyes at Bonnie while saying this, "and what you just did to Davina."

"Hayley right? Ty mentioned you a few times. He's sorry for trying to kill your baby, by the way."

"Good to know. But I'm surprised you heard about from Tyler and not Caroline. I thought she'd still be blabbing about what a bitch I am."

"Oh, she used to! But now she has a new bitch to blab about."

"My condolences to whoever that poor soul is."

"You guys are getting off topic!" exclaims Marcel. Both women snap their heads back towards him.

"You're right, I'm sorry," says Bonnie. "Look, I simply put Davina to sleep. She should be up in a few hours."

"Good," says Hayley, arms crossed over her chest. "Now who exactly are you?" Before Bonnie can respond, she hears someone call out her name.

Marcel and Hayley step aside to let Stefan through. Bonnie breathes out a sigh of relief at the sight of the younger Salvatore. "Thank god you're here! Now I can cross another item off my to-do list."

Stefan furrows his eyebrows in confusion. "To-do list?"

"Oh, you know, save Klaus Mikaelson's ass, then save the Salvatore brothers from doing something stupid."

"So the usual?" asks Klaus.

"Pretty much." She then notices the strange looks she's getting from Hayley and Marcel, and jokes, "As you can see, I have a pretty boring life."

"You don't say," remarks Marcel, smirking.

Meanwhile, Elijah was frowning at the sight of the Bennett witch. "Why would you help my brother, Miss Bennett?" Bonnie turns her attention to Elijah.

"Why wouldn't I?" Elijah seems at a loss for words after that statement.

Bonnie turns attention back to the others. "Now that you all know who I am, let's get down to business. Aurora, the crazy bitch, should be waking up soon. You know, since all these witches are now dead, and the astral plane is probably going kaboom."

Marcel sends her a pointed look. "And you know this because…"

"Um, witch's intuition?" says Bonnie, the phrase coming out as more of a question than an actual statement.

Klaus cuts in. "That doesn't matter right now. I'm going to go lock up Aurora, for good! Anyone care to join me?"

"I'm in!" Bonnie exclaims enthusiastically. But before walking after Klaus, she tilts her towards Marcel and Hayley and adds, "Take Davina back to the Mikaelsons' place with you. My peace offering's currently taking a nap there."

"No!" Aurora screams as she watches the astral plane collapse. She looks around, confused, as she her hand touches a dark, damp, cold wall. She gets up, is shocked to find a smiling Klaus Mikaelson before her.

"Welcome back to the real world love. I thought we might revisit our chat about what hurts and what doesn't."

Aurora glares at her ex-lover as she tried to lunge at him, only to be stopped by an invisible wall.

"Bloody hell Nik!"

"Don't scream like a banshee at him," says Bonnie, moving from her spot behind Klaus and walking over to Aurora. "This is my doing. Consider it as a little… parting gift."

"Bennett!" Aurora practically growls as she tries to attack Bonnie, only to fail.

Klaus looks back and forth between the two women, confused as to why there seems to be so much animosity between them. "How do you know who she is?" He demands from Aurora.

"She's probably met a lot of Bennett witches in her time," Bonnie cuts in before Aurora can open her mouth again and let the cat out of the bag. "Plus, I almost killed you once, so she's probably heard of me."

"That's quite the little tale you're spinning, witch." Bonnie glares at Aurora, sending one of her famous aneurysms her way.

"Shut up!"

"Bonnie, what the bloody hell is she going on about?" demands Klaus, as he watches Aurora writhing in pain.

Bonnie loses concentration as she turns to talk to Klaus. "She's crazy, Nik. Remember? Bitch. Crazy!"

"Lying is not a good part of a healthy relationship," Aurora pipes up from her little prison, once the pain is gone.

Bonnie was growing increasingly frustrated with Aurora, as she tends to do. "Do you have an off switch?"

"No, she doesn't, because if she did, I would've found it, used it, and broken her on switch, a thousand years ago."

"How rude."

"Aurora, sweetie, if you have split personality disorder, just say so. I'm sure Nik would be more than happy to book you a session with Camille."

"She does love a challenge."

"You both make me sick!" Aurora spits out to them.

"Oh honey, you are sick! Trapping you in here is nothing compared to what you actually deserve. A slow, painful, miserable death. Right after you get front row seats to see the same happen to your big brother."

"Rot in hell!" Aurora lunges for Bonnie once again.

Bonnie smirks gleefully at the redhead's current state. "Sorry, love, but you're the one who's going to be doing all the rotting. Have fun with the worms!"

Bonnie turns around, intending to walk away so that Klaus could have his big revenge moment, but stops right in her tracks when she hears Aurora call out, "Do you really think that you're going to get away with this?"

Bonnie turns back around, getting right in Aurora's face. "Excuse me?"

"Lucien will come save me! He always does!"

Bonnie's eyes blaze at the mention of Lucien's name, especially coming from her mouth. "Not this time. You've messed with him one too many times, and I'm not going to let you do it again. I'm here now, for good, and if you think that you can just waltz your way back into Lucien's life and make him do your bidding for you, then you've got another thing coming. Oh, and one other thing - trapping you in here is just for Nik and whoever else who've screwed over during your miserable existence on this planet."

Bonnie breaks through the barrier momentarily so that she could smack Aurora right across the face, so hard that the vampire cried out in pain.

"That was for Lucien!"

Bonnie turn around to walk away, but before she could leave, Klaus grabs her by the wrist, stopping her in her tracks.

"Klaus, I happen like you, but if you don't let go of my wrist right now, I will personally bring you to Davina myself so that she can finish that de-siring spell."

Klaus shrugs off the threat as if she'd suggested that they go out for ice-cream, completely ignoring the menacing glares he's getting from the Bennett witch.

"So you know Lucien Castle as well?"

"Why am I not allowed to have a goddamn secret?!" demands Bonnie, her eyes going wild. "Everybody else has them, and I don't pry. But the minute sweet little Bonnie Bennett isn't being completely honest, all hell breaks loose!"

Klaus lets go of her wrist immediately, seeing as if he held onto her any longer, she might just set him on fire.

"Calm down love."

Hearing the hybrid's soothing voice, Bonnie sighs. "I'm sorry, Nik. I promise I'll tell you everything, just not now. Go have your epic moment with Aurora. Make her cry on my behalf."

"Oh believe me, I intend to." Klaus smirks as he glances back at his ex.

Bonnie walks back to where the Mikaelson brothers were when the witches were doing the de-siring spell, and sees Aya by the pool, looking down at her dead sisters. She's about to walk over to the vampire, when she sees Elijah approach her.

"So we remain connected, you and I," she hears him say. "In spite of everything you have done." He pauses before continuing. "I can't let you hurt my family, and you can't hurt me more than you already have."

Bonnie snorts when she hears this, and then thanks her lucky stars that the former couple was too caught up in the moment to pay any attention to their surroundings.

"I stood by you, Elijah! All of us were willing to die for you, and how did you repay us? Betrayal. Abandonment!"

Bonnie wants to run up to Aya screaming, "You tell him Aya!" but decides that it would be wiser to just see what happens next.

"You were not forsaken!" Elijah cuts in sharply. When he sees the look Aya's giving him, he almost looks guilty. "Yes, I failed you, for this I will never forgive myself." Then his expression becomes angrier, furious even, as he holds out the gun with the white oak bullets. "But I cannot forgive this!"

Aya stares at him, tears threatening to spill out. "If your life were chained to a man who left you despite your devotion, what choice would you have but to break free? So, end this."

Bonnie's eyes widen when she hears Aya say this, but she stays put to see what Elijah does next.

Elijah points the gun towards Aya's chest, hands shaking. He looks into her eyes, trying to find a reason to do as she's asked, but ultimately can't. He looks away from Aya, unable to look her in the eyes as she yells, "End it, Elijah!"

Bonnie wants to go over there and smack some sense into these two idiotic vampires, but instead, she ends up seeing Hayley from the corner of her eye... with a stake in her hand.

"No!" Bonnie uses her magic to snatch the stake out of Hayley's hands, glaring at the hybrid. "You don't get to kill her." She throws the stake aside as she marches over to the trio.

"What the hell do you think you're doing Bonnie?" demands Hayley. Bonnie ignores both her and Elijah completely as she speaks to Aya.

"You listen to me, and you listen good Aya. If you ever try to pull some kind of stupid suicide stunt like this, ever again, I will put a fucking protection spell on you. No one will be able to even touch a single hair on your head, you hear me?! I don't give a crap about your dignity, or your feelings, Aya. I am not about to let you die, especially at the hands of Elijah freaking Mikaelson! Or some random hybrid chick. That's not how you die! You're better than that; you are strong, and brave, and the type of woman I want to be, despite the fact that you're a cold-blooded killer. So don't you ever do anything else to make me eat those words, you hear me? You've stuck by the Strix your entire life, you are the one that they admire and look up to. Not Elijah, not Marcel, you! Now go be the badass vampire leader that I know you can be!"

Aya stares at the young witch in awe. This is not the same little girl she met all those years ago. Aya smiles at the younger woman. "I didn't know you cared."

"I don't!"

Aya's smile falters, but only slightly. "Thank you, Bonnie." With that, she walks off.

Once Aya's out of earshot, Elijah remarks, "You know she's one of your ancestors, don't you?"

Bonnie turns to face Elijah. "Yes, I do."

"Wait, Aya was a Bennett witch?" questions Hayley.

"Yup! She was the granddaughter of Ayana Bennett."

"How do you know her?" asks Elijah.

"I was in New York, after my grandmother's death. That's where I met Aya." No one knows what to say after that.

"Why all the long faces?" asks Klaus, walking towards the trio. "We've won the war!"

"Let's just go," mumbles Bonnie, walking outside.

"Was it something I said?"

"So you're telling me that Freya channeled Lucien for this massive spell?" demands Bonnie, as they all walk into the Mikaelson compound. "She could've killed him!"

"I would never let her kill him!" snaps Klaus. "Torture him, maybe. But kill him? Never!"

"Well he did side with Aurora," Marcel points out, as he comes downstairs after putting Davina in one of the million rooms of the Mikaelson house.

Bonnie snaps her head in Marcel's direction. "He what?"

"He helped her escape on Christmas morning, then shit happened, and I found him gagged and drained," explains Hayley.

"Idiot."

"How exactly do you know the first vampire ever turned?" asks Stefan, curious as he's never heard anything about this before.

"We met a bar in New York. You know, during that month I was gone for after my Grams died."

"Right."

"I don't believe that story for a second," Klaus tells her.

"Oh, because you know me so well."

"Actually, I believe I do."

"Well isn't this just adorable?" they all hear a familiar female voice call out. "Have you finally decided to switch back to brunettes Nik?"

Klaus smiles when he sees the blonde in front of him, speeding over to her as he envelops her into a hug. "Rebekah! I've missed you little sister."

"Me too," she says softly, breaking out of his grip.

Elijah, following his brother's lead, smiles as he too goes up and hugs their sister. "How are you here?"

"You have Bonnie Bennett to thank for that."

Elijah raises an eyebrow as he asks, "You lifted the curse on my sister?"

"Of course she did! She also brought Kol back to life. He's asleep right now."

"My peace offering to Davina," Bonnie chimes in.

"Were these also items on your to-do list?" asks Stefan, raising an eyebrow.

Bonnie simply shrugs. "I'm a busy girl."

"And you did all of this in one day, and still found time to help my brother find a way to save me from the huntress, while having to put up with Enzo?"

"Oh come on Stefan! Have a little faith in me. Besides, I work fast, and I'm an expert at all things multitasking."

Elijah found himself frowning at Bennett witch for the second time that night. There is no way that Bonnie Bennett would help him and his family without an ulterior motive. "You save my brother's life, lift the curse placed on my sister, and bring my other brother back to life... what exactly are you playing at Miss Bennett?"

Bonnie glances at Elijah, sighing as she shakes her head. "And people think Klaus is the paranoid one? You know Elijah, it's actually really sad that you think someone wouldn't help you out of the goodness of their own heart."

"You almost killed my brother once, and then you desiccated him. Not to mention, you were more than willing to help the Gilberts kill Kol. Excuse me for being a little wary of your intentions."

"Ever heard of the saying 'don't look a gift horse in the mouth,' Elijah?" they hear Freya say, turning to see the eldest Mikaelson walking towards them. "And besides, you should be thanking Bonnie Bennett for all she's for our family."

Bonnie smiles at the older witch. "Thanks Freya. It's good see you again."

"You too."

"Wait, you two know each other?" asks Elijah.

"Yes, and you would know this if you actually came to visit this past summer. Bonnie practically lived here for two weeks."

"So that's where you disappeared to!" exclaims Stefan.

Ignoring Stefan, Marcel asks, "Well, how come I've never met her?"

Bonnie snorts. "Because contrary to popular belief, you're pretty oblivious of your surroundings." Marcel glares at the witch, who seems unfazed by the gesture. "I mean, come on! I've known Davina for the past two years!"

"Well, he is a still a toddler," they hear Lucien call out from upstairs, watching as he jumps down. "You can't really blame him for being unaware of his surroundings."

Marcel, Stefan, Freya and Hayley all let out similar groans of 'not this bitch again' at the sight of the first turned vampire.

Lucien ignores them, and walks over to Bonnie with a bright smile on his face. "Hello little witch."

"Hey. You okay? I heard that Freya over there pretty much drained of everything when she channeled you."

"Never better love."

"Good."

Bonnie brings out her hand, and slaps Lucien straight across the face. Lucien lets out a small moan of pain, as he places one of his hands on his cheek.

"Well it's nice to see you too," he says sarcastically, once the pain stops.

"Damn, I forgot how much I missed her!" exclaims Rebekah, still not getting over how epic that slap was.

"Well this should be fun," remarks Klaus, as he sees the glaring match going on between Lucien and Bonnie.

A/N: Okay, so, I just really wanted to do a Lonnie (LucienxBonnie) fic. I want to call them CastleBennett so badly, but I feel like that's taken. I'm pretty sure I've heard it before. Anyway, I also wanted to see if I could write Klonnie, or Stefonnie. And I wanted Bonnie in New Orleans... thus, this fic is born. I know, I know! Davina was totally badass when she did the de-siring spell on Klaus, and when she brought Kol back to life. And that scene with Elijah and Aya was just the most heartbreaking thing ever! I'm still not cool with Hayley killing her, by the way. But, this is how I've decided to include Bonnie so... yeah. Oh, and Aya was never marked by the Phoenix Sword. I happen to like Aya, so I'm not doing that to her.

Also, this is a very Bonnie-centric story, because she's my favorite character. I've had this in mind ever since the Sisters showed up. Aya was never supposed to be a Bennett, but then I was like "It makes sense. And it would be really cool." So she's Aya Bennett. great-granddaughter of Ayana Bennett. Also, it's not fair that New Orleans witches are cooler! Bonnie should be in New Orleans because, yeah, she's epic. In my opinion, she and Stefan, and maybe the Heretics, should move to NOLA permanently because they totally deserve it.

So that's my little rant on Bonnie Bennett and how much I love her. I hope you guys enjoyed the first chapter of this... whatever it is. And just to be clear, this includes Lonnie, Klonnie, and Stefonnie. Whether it's friendship or romantic pairings... I'm not telling. And whether or not any of these pairings are endgame... I'm also not telling. And also, FYI, please don't expect smut from me. I don't write smut, I don't know how. Maybe one day I'll learn, and I'll try. But I don't think that's going to be happening anytime soon so... yeah, it's just not happening.

Also, did anyone else get major TVD Season 2 feels when Klaus had Aurora behind that brick wall? Like when Damon and Stefan had Katherine in that tomb? No, just me? Okay...
