AN: Hello there! This is the remake of my story "When the past and the present reunite" Enjoy! This is an AU and the story starts from S05E12 and ends ... honestly, have no idea yet but, I guarantee that I'll finish this story (I'll try to post a chapter every week-end)

Chapter 1: Into the Schwarzwald

Nick and Monroe fell into the pit and made sure that they are both okay after the fall

"Argh! That hurt! Are you okay?"

"I don't know yet"

"I don't think anything's broken"

"I think … I'm okay too"

"Are we in some kind of a cave?" Asked an astonished Monroe

"Have no idea"

"Dude … it's a catacomb and that must be a church"

"Not just any church" said Nick looking at the map "This is the church from the map"

"My GOD! Whatever they hid, it must be down here"

"Well, they must have buried it … Start with the floor; we should look for some kind of an opening" said Nick while Monroe came face to face with an interesting symbol

"Look at this!" Said Monroe "It looks like a circle surrounded by 2 semi-circles and one is of each side of the full circle … or maybe half - moons?!" answered Nick. Hidden from sight was a feminine figure watching them with fierce eyes

"No no no!" Responded Monroe "Impossible" starting to hyperventilate

"What?! What's wrong?"

"Don't you recognise the symbol? Asked Monroe "This is the triple goddess and describes the Maiden, the Mother and the Crone in common Neopagan and, each of which symbolises both a separate stage in the female life cycle and a phase of the Moon" answered Monroe in his lecturing mode

"This makes no sense" said Nick "Why would the knights draw a 'neopagan' symbol? What's the point?"

"Maybe it's a hidden door" said Monroe trying to be positive and the feminine figure started to grin

"Hold on … "You're right! This is a door!" Said Nick inspecting the wall "Down here! I can feel a breeze … try finding the switch button to open this door" said Nick

"It must be somewhere on these moons but, the question is which one … let's see …" said Monroe turning in his geek mode once again "so, inside the waxing moon is a feline, kind of, with a crystal; for the full moon is a pentagram and lastly inside the waning moon is only the crystal … why? Why? It doesn't make any sense"

"What doesn't make any sense? Calm down man … You're making me nervous"

"Calm down?! Dude, I CANNOT calm down … don't you see it? This is not only our way out but also a chance to win this war"

"War?!"

"I get it! Calm down man … you don't have to say it twice"

"Say what twice?"

"War … you repeated yourself"

"Aaa Nick?! Are you sure you're okay? I did not say war twice"

"I was just … never mind …"

"Why this feline figure is only inside the waxing moon? What if it's a trap? I mean, it must be … whatever we will find on the other side of this wall it's dedicated to Artemis"

"Turn the feline's crystal clock-wise 90 degrees" and without thinking about the consequences Monroe did exactly what the voice said; "Whoa whoa Monroe, what are you doing?" Asked Nick a little too late because the door opened smoothly revealing a large, very modern, room apparently lit by electricity filled with lots of books and thousands parchments neatly placed on the far side of the room

"Interesting"

"Indeed it is … I did NOT expected this … I mean … electricity! DUDE! This is a huge discovery" said Monroe to a speechless Nick

"How?! … what the … hell just happened?! Electricity in the middle of nowhere?! So many damn questions … without any answers … I don't like it … Monroe, how did you know how to open the door?"

"Have no ideea … It just came to me…" answered Monroe examining the floor "Cum venit tempus, Ipsa etiam inter nos"

"Sorry?" Said Nick from the closest bookshelf

"It's written right here … When the right time comes, She will, again, walk among us … "Who in their right mind would live in a place like this?"

"No clue … are we dealing with a zombie or a vampire? Anyway, it's a 'she';Nick, what would you prefer? A 'she' zombie or a 'she' vampire?"

"Ironic as I remember WOLF" said a mysterious woman with a silver crossbow pointed in Monroe's direction "and don't even think, GRIMM, to make a funny move…"

AN: Can you guess who this mysterious woman is?

"Who are you?" Asked Nick "and how did you get in here without me hearing you"

"Now now, you're in no position to ask any questions and besides, a woman can't tell all her secrets to random strangers, can she?"

"So, let me get this right … you're supposed to be the mysterious 'thing' hidden by the knights all these centuries ago?"Aren't you a little too old?"

"Nick, stop! You're pissing her off!"

"Aren't you a little too old?" Nick said ignoring Monroe and, suddenly an arrow flew right next to Monroe's ear and another one next to Nick's head… "As I said before, Grimm, no funny moves…"

"That went well … and, you really pissed her off" said Monroe

"No shit Sherlock"

"You're Artemis, aren't you?" Asked Monroe

"What?! Artemis?! As in THE goddess Artemis? Monroe, you're crazy"

"No, think a little Nick … all those legends must come from somewhere right? And besides, she has a silver crossbow and you remember the symbol from before? The triple goddess? Only the waxing moon, which represents Artemis by the way, has a feline figure inside not just the crystal"

"What's so funny?"

"You, your dialogues"

"Why there is a feline figure inside the waxing moon only?"

"If I really am Artemis, so what?" Said Artemis ignoring the question while admiring a golden cup "By the way, you have lot's of fans, don't you Grimm?"

"So, my name is Monroe and I am a Blutbad and that over there is Nick, my best friend and a Grimm but you already know this, right? So, are you really Artemis?" Asked Monroe with hopes in his eyes thinking that with a goddess by their side they can definitely win the war, even against the Royals

"Fans?! What fans? That priest"! Said Monroe and Nick in unison

"I just took care of half of them … you should thank me"

"Why? Why didn't you let them come here?"

"Seriously?!" This place was built for ME hundred years ago, all this time remaining hidden from the prying eyes, they had no business down here and, besides you two being here NOW is no coincidence"

"Until recently you were sleeping, weren't you? And I suppose THIS is the 'right time' considering the war we are in"

"What war?"

"There is a hidden organisation, only wesen members, they want to make themselves known to the human population … and of course, there are the Royals as well, they want to rule again" responded Nick

"What's the deal with "When the right time comes, She will, again, walk among us?" Said Monroe changing the subject and trying to see if Artemis would be by their side

"Very smooth Monroe, very smooth"

"What?! I am simply curious and do not say that you're not…"

"Fine. I am" said Nick raising his hands in surrender

"You two are just best-friends not together, right?" Said Artemis mocking them

"NO!"

"I am married to a Fuchsbau and Nick has a kid with a Hexenbiest and they are living together as well" said Monroe trying to look calm

"Strange world indeed … and my story is for another time but, I will tell you this: yes, until 2 years ago I was under a sleeping spell; my aunt Hecate helped me perfect this spell. It was nice talking with you, we'll see again in Portland! Bye!"

"What?! She simply vanished! No wonder we never heard her… I would like to disappear like that too, you know"

"Well, she did said we will see again in Portland; if you ask her nicely and she is in a good mood probably she will teach us a trick or too… now, how can we get out of here? By the way, did you saw that she took something from that shelf"

"Yes, I saw it too … it looked like a cup, a golden cup actually; How does she even know about Portland? So many damn questions… it's frustrating!"

"All right, well, the first thing we got to do is figure out how to get out of here or would you rather stick around?"

"I would love to stay here … I mean look at all the books and parchments … everything we could learn … it's mind blowing but, I don't think Artemis will agree"

"We certainly can't climb back up the way we fell in … there's got to be an entrance here somewhere".

"Hey, I think I found the way out! This has to be it".

Meanwhile in Portland, the crowd continues to panic after Andrew Dixon was shot by Marwan Hanano; Hank spots the balcony where Marwan shot from so he, Wu and multiple officers run to the apartment building. Renard tells people to give Dixon space as they start to crowd around him. Eve stands by the stage looking for Marwan.

Hank and Wu arrive at the apartment to find the body of the man that Marwan killed while Marwan goes to the roof, woges and runs to the edge, trying to escape by climbing down the side of the apartment building.

On the stage, Dixon coughs as the bleeding gets worse; the paramedics arrive to the stage and Dixon is placed supine. Renard and Rachel watch as the paramedics try to save Dixon. Nearby, Eve follows Marwan after he reaches the ground where he calls Lucien Petrovitchto let him know that the job is done and asks to send a car. While walking past Marwan, Eve's eyes turn white and she telekinetically makes a cyclist lose control of his bike and crash into Marwan knocking him out; Eve takes the phone, woges and breathes a gas into Marwan's mouth which puts him into a comatose-like state.

At the spice shop, Adalind helps Rosalee with the shop; Rosalee tells Adalind that she doesn't have to do anymore because she has done plenty to help. Later, they start talking about how they probably should have heard from Nick and Monroe by now.

A customer informs Rosalee about Andrew Dixon being killed

"What happened?" Asked Adalind

"Somebody killed Andrew Dixon"

"The guy running for mayor?"

"Yes … he was shot at a rally just a couple of hours ago"

"Oh, my God! Did they get who did it? "

"I don't know … a customer just told me … she didn't know anything more than that".

When Renard arrives at his office, he asks Hank and Wu if they got the shooter "We searched every room in the building" said Wu "but somehow we missed him" added Hank

"So, we got nothing?" Asked Renard

"Well, we know it's Marwan" … Trubel confirmed he was in Portland and, he was reported in the area"

"This doesn't make any sense" said Renard "Why would he kill a candidate running for mayor of Portland? He's Black Claw, his targets are bigger than this"

"Was Dixon Wesen?"

"I don't think so" Renard said noticing that the feds are there

"What do we tell 'em? Can't ID Marwan cause we can't explain our source"

"Run them through it. Tell them you saw a shooter in the window. Let them run their own investigation, and stay out of it." Responded Renard

Renard gets a call from Lucien, who anonymously tells him where Marwan is. He says he may not be there much longer and hangs up. Renard tells the other two that only they will go to the hospital; otherwise, Marwan will see them coming.

Someone arrives at the shop and Rosalee goes to see who it is

"Tony?" Rosalee is shocked to see that it is Tony who asks why she didn't answer his letters.

"I know you got 'em … I checked the address outside, I sent 'em here"

Rosalee tells Tony that she moved on with her life

"I need your help … You owe me"

"The kind of help you need, I can't give you… What's that supposed to mean? I Don't owe you anything"

"I went to jail for you"

"You didn't go to jail for me, Tony"

"I robbed those people 'cause you were crashing"

"No, you robbed those people so you and Carlos could get high!"

"Well, Carlos is dead now; J.J.'s in Boise and Burt's in jail … I got no one left to turn to … I need five grand and you can come up with five grand … I mean, look at this place; probably make that in a day"

"You need to leave now"

"So you get your little ass straight? Think you're better than everyone? You know me Rosy and, you should know better then to piss me off" he starts knocking items off a shelf and Rosalee tells him to get out; When Tony hits her across her face knocking her to the ground, Adalind comes into the room and tells Tony to stop.

"Leave her alone! I'm calling the police"

He woges and walks up to Adalind "The hell you are". Suddenly, Adalind gets a sharp pain in her stomach and Tony grabs her wanting to hit her, "Tony, NO!" but just before his hand gets to her face, it is telekinetically stopped and one by one each finger bends all the way back, breaking … "Oh God! OH MY GOD!" Tony cries in pain and quickly leaves almost knocking down an unfortunate customer.

"So, they are the Fuchsbau and the Hexenbiest …

"Oh, my God! Oh, my God!"

"Oh, my God, oh, my God!"

"Oh, my God! Oh, my God!"

"It can't be back"

"Oh, my God, it can't be back; it can't be back! I don't want it back!"

"Maybe maybe it's just temporary"

"No, no, no, I can't have it back; I never want it back"

"Don't please, you can't tell Nick … Please, please promise me that you won't tell him … He'll get rid of us … Please, you can't tell him"

"I won't tell him, but you can't keep it from him if it happens again … It would be so much worse if he found out and you hadn't told him"

"I can't go back to being that!"

"You are so different now … Maybe it would be different even if it came back"

"You don't understand what it's like being a Hexenbiest! What it does to you, the way it makes you think and feel … It's not good".

"Maybe we can find a way to boost the suppressant".

Back in Germany

Nick and Monroe climb out of the catacomb and start walking down the hill but they see a lot of flashlights. They hide as Father Eickholt and a mob of men search for them.

"What the hell is the priest doing out here? You think he knows about the keys?"

"No, I think the guy we scared in the church made me as a Grimm"

"Oh, my God, you're right … he obviously told the priest and now, they are hunting us"

When Father Eickholt comes across the hole Nick and Monroe fell into and tells the others to come to him making easier for them to start walking again; they come across Gottlob, who woges and bites Monroe on the arm before running towards Father Eickholt and the mob saying that he spotted the Grimm. Nick and Monroe run towards their car but two men are guarding it.

"Why won't you call to them while woged, in German?"

"You do know that not all Blutbaden look alike"

"I know but, it's dark and if they are looking for a Grimm, the last place they'd expect to find one is with a Blutbad in the middle of the Black Forest"

Monroe woges and starts jogging towards the men "Der Grimm, der Grimm, der Grimm!" The two men run into the forest and Nick comes out of hiding "It won't take them long to figure out what happened". They decide to pop one tire from each of the other cars with their shovels. When the two men run up to Father Eickholt and his mob telling them about Monroe and that they are there to help. Father Eickholt gets upset and leads the mob back to the cars; Nick hears the group coming so, he and Monroe quickly get into the car and drive away; the mob tries to follow but they all realise they have flat tires.

Nick and Monroe continue driving after escaping the mob. Nick says they are going straight to the airport and Monroe groans in pain. Nick asks if his arm is okay and Monroe tells him, "That little creep wad got me good, but we're not gonna stop to deal with it. Just keep going."

Back in Portland

Renard watches footage of Dixon's speech, rewinding and fast forwarding every so often. He soon notices Rachel on the phone as she looks up towards where Marwan sniped Dixon from.

Meisner confronts Renard about killing Marwan in the parking garage of the precinct. Meisner tells him they put Marwan in the hospital for a reason and that they needed his contacts. Meisner says they needed Marwan alive and Renard tells Meisner that he should have told him that. Meisner asks how they even knew Marwan was in the hospital and Renard tells him they got a tip. Meisner angrily asks, "From whom? Who could give you that kind of tip? You were set up." Renard asks by who, and Meisner tells him, "The people who brought him here, Black Claw. You destroyed months of work." Renard snaps back that Meisner should have said something, and Meisner responds, "Oh, this was bad... for all of us," and walks away.

Renard arrives home, where Rachel is waiting for him. She tells him she really needs him tonight and they go inside. Renard kisses Rachel and says, "I think it's time we play a little rougher." He pins her against a wall and woges. He confronts her about knowing that Dixon was going to be shot and Rachel woges into a Löwen. Renard asks who she is working for and Rachel tells him, "The people who are gonna change your life."

Lucien arrives at Renard's house and Renard asks if he and Rachel want to tell him what's going on. Lucien says, "Dixon was meant to die, and you were meant to kill the man that killed him." Renard realizes that Lucien was the one who told him about Marwan being in the hospital and Lucien tells him, "We could make you the most powerful man in the city. And that's only the beginning." Renard figures out that they are Black Claw and Rachel unrolls a campaign poster with Renard on it. Rachel says, "You're a hero. You can win."

"Hmm … Sorry to interrupt!"

"When you came in? Sorry, but I did not saw you"

"When that idiot stormed out and almost knocked me down"

"I am sorry you had to witness everything … I am Rosalee and she is Adalind"

"Yes, I know and I also know that you're a Fuchsbau and you're a Hexenbiest with suppressed abilities that are trying to resurface … I am Artemis and, I can, probably help you"

Adalind and Rosalee did not know what to think … how did this stranger knew who and most importantly what they are? This stranger seems a simple 5'5'' young lady in her mid-twenties?! With red curly hair and blue eyes wearing a blue casual dress with a cardigan calling herself Artemis … Hold on … Artemis?! As in the goddess Artemis?!

"How did you …?"

"How can you tell WHAT we are?"

"That's a really long story for another time, when Nick and Monroe will be back from Germany"

"How do you know them?"

"You met them? When? Are they safe?"

"It's not possible for you to be here if you met them in Germany"

"STOP! Just stop with all this non-sense … I will tell you everything … but, another time"

"Okay, let's all take a deep breath and try to calm down … this day is indeed a very interesting one" said Rosalind

"Did we ever had a normal boring day, I wonder?" Responded Adalind a little sarcastic

Luckily for all the ladies there, the telephone started to ring

"Spice and Tea …"

"Rosalee? It's me …"

"Monroe? Where are you?"

"We're in a taxi in Stuttgart on our way to the airport and we're due in Portland at 9.50 tomorrow morning"

"Did you find anything?"

"I probably shouldn't talk about it on the phone; don't say a word to anyone but, let's just say it wasn't for nothing"

"Is Adalind there?" Asked Nick

"Hey, is Adalind with you?"

"She is and, we're not alone …there is a 'lovely' redhead here …" "Not on the phone, please … Nick wants to talk with Adalind" said Monroe not letting her finish the sentence

"It's Nick" said Rosalee giving the phone to Adalind

Nick and Adalind then talk to each other and Nick asks how she and Kelly are doing. She says they're good and tells Nick to have a safe flight home. Adalind gives the phone back to Rosalee and Nick gives the phone back to Monroe, and they both say they love each other.

"So, Artemis, what …"

?!

"She vanished?!"

AN: That's it for now! Stay tuned for what's coming next
