A/N: Happy New Year guys. How was y'all new year? I had a blast, party with friends and family and it was the best time. Ok so let get to it. I finished the first chapter faster than I anticipated. I was totally going to wait a few day to get this posted, but I figured why wait when I could work on the next chapter instead. I'm really loving this story now... it's giving me wet dream... lol. I can't wait for y'all to see what I have in store

* twirls evil mustache laughing menacingly*

Since this is a crossover between TVD and TO, there will be some scenes and/or lines coming from certain episode of both shows. However, there will be some major twist, jerks and turns of my own that I will be popping in there every now and then. Anyway, I talked enough here. See you on the other side.

Enjoy!


The Mikaelson Estate: New Orléans

"Everything that brought us here to New Orléans was a story that Sophie Deveraux fabricated,this struggle for control of the French quarter. This war between vampires and witches wasn't over territory at all. This was over Davina. 8 Months ago, Sophie Deveraux and her sister Jane-Anne lost everything. Now, 4 months after that, a young pregnant girl wanders into their , all hope is renew. Jane-Anne actually sacrificed her life so that her sister could use you to find Davina. If Sophie Deveraux is successfully in capturing Davina, she can return Jane-Anne's daughter back to life. We thought we'd come here to wage a war for power, when it's about family. In order to return her niece to life,Sophie Deveraux will fight to the death. And that makes her more dangerous than anyone."

Klaus, Rebekah and Hayley look to Elijah with a jumble of emotions. Ranging from seething rage to confusion to fear. As Elijah looked back on his family he wore a look of concern. After Davina had told him the story of how she came to be in Marcel's company, he knew that Sophie would stop at nothing to help her family… for it was the same thing he would have done. It was the same thing he had done, for centuries.

"So how do you propose we stop them brother?" Klaus spoke up now, " Head over to the witches cemetery and ask politely?"

Elijah looked to his brother a small smile ghost across his face.

" I promised the young witch-ling that I would bring to her someone who would be able to help her gain control of her magic. A witch that has very great potential… some have even called her a prodigy."

Rebekah and Klaus raised a brow " Whom might this be?" Rebekah asked.

Elijah smile knowingly as light footsteps approaches, The hybrid his sister and mother-to-be turn and watch as I appeared in the threshold. Rebekah raises an eyebrow as Hayley looks on guilt stricken. Klaus stood abruptly. I stare him down, unafraid of the murderess look in his eyes. On several occasions I had the upper hand against the Original Hybrid, if it came to a fight there was no doubt in my mind that I could take him on again. He cranes his head to the side, a look or curiosity on his face before it was gone. Mask over by contempt and loathing... The feeling was mutual for me as well.

" I believe you all know Ms Bennett, the last Bennett in a line of very powerful witches." Klaus' face was priceless... Klaus 'The Original Hybrid' Mikaelson , rendered speechless by my presence. Oh yeah, I would definitely savor this moment.

" I need a drink" Klaus spat as he sulks out the room with out a word or a glance behind.

I couldn't help but smirk to myself. Who knew that I could get under his skin so badly. Hayley smiles softly at me before she follows Klaus out of the room as well. And then there were three; A warm welcome was not on the list of things to expect upon my arrival. In fact I had prepaid myself for much worse. Still, it was hard to get my mind around the situation at hand. Klaus was gong to be a daddy, to a woman who, at the time claims to love Tyler but aids in the killing of 12 innocent people maybe more. Now she found herself under the protection of The Originals. A family with their own issues and mistrust among themselves. Set on helping their sociopath of a brother take back a town they had abandon over 100 plus years ago. Which lead them in the middle of a serious war that was brewing between the a cult-like coven. That practiced human sacrificial magic and the vampire that had some how gain enough control over them to keep them from doing anymore. I must be crazy to think this would be a good idea. Still at the time- of my obvious mental break, it seemed like it was the right move to make…

Mystic Falls: Two days earlier

Bonnie sighed as she walked up the steps to her home. It had been about a month since she came back from the other side. Damon's plan worked, with Silas death they were able to bring her back. All her powers; light, dark, and expression had all returned. It was like the last three months on the other side never happen… but they had. Abby was gone, taking care of Jamie. Grams was still on the other side and her father was murdered in cold blood. Murdered, as the town stood and watched, as she stood among them on the other side. Powerless to stop Silas as he slit her father's throat open. It had been months since her father death. Even now, she woke up in cold sweats. Blood curdling screams exploded from her lungs, lights flickering, objects being thrown around her dorm room she shared with Elena and Caroline. it had gotten so out of control that Bonnie stopped sleeping at the dorms all together. The only time she didn't have those nightmares, was when she was with Jeremy… but they weren't together every night. More often than not Bonnie preferred it that way. She loved him, she loved all of her friends… even Damon- who had played a huge part in bring her back. Still, it was the same thing everyday. Whenever she saw her friends, it was the same thing…

How are you feeling today?

Is there anything I can do for you?

If you want to talk, I'm here for you.

Don't close yourself off to us Bon, we love you.

I'm worried about you? We're worried about you? what can we do to help her? What is going on with Bonnie?

It was in their sympathetic smiles, the long stares, their patronizing tones. It was in every hug she was given. Ever kiss from Jeremy, every moment she was around them. It wasn't that she didn't appreciate their concern. It wasn't that at all. Bonnie loved them, but things just weren't the same. Even as she attending classes with Caroline and Elena - just how they had might as well not even show up, as much as she paid attention to what was being discussed. Bonnie needed to get away, Mystic Falls was a place that held too much pain for her now. So much of her life, so many people that she love all of them were gone. Leaving had weighed heavily on her mind. It wouldn't be forever, just long enough to get her head screwed on straight again. Still, where would she go? What would she do for a living? How would she survive on her own and for how long?

She began to pull the keys out of her purse, when her magic warned her of danger. She turned quickly behind her. There stood a man - in an expensive suit. It had been a few years since she had seen him but there was no mistaking him… especially the way he dressed.

"Elijah." She glared

He smiled " Miss Bennett."

Bonnie turned her back to him as she retrieved her keys once more, " It's late Elijah, are you lost or something."

She heard his footsteps approach, immediately he stopped. She had thrown up a barrier between them. Bonnie smiled to herself as the magic flowed easily. Man, she really missed her magic. " What do you want?"

"I was hoping to talk to you."

"About?"

"I am in need of your assistance w-"

She scoffed turning her back to him again keys in the lock. " You have some nerve coming here asking for my help after the last time. You do remember the last time don't you. We had a plan set in place to kill Klaus, then you turn on us," her door was open but she turned back to Elijah hands crossed over her chest, " and you think I would ever do anything to help you. Your not that bright for a century year old vamp, huh?"

Bonnie watched as Elijah ran his hand through his dark locks. He looked tired… how that was even possible given what he was, was beyond her. He turned away from Bonnie; took a sit on the top step and looked out toward the street. Bonnie frowned in confusion. What the hell was up with him…

" I could lie," he began " Tell you what you want to hear, tell you that I am sorry for saving my brother's life. That I was wrong for wanting to make my family whole. That is was the wrong thing to do... We don't have a choice whom your family is. We come into this world born to a group of people bound by blood. No matter how much pain, they may have done. No matter how many wrongs they may commit… you never turn your back on blood. it is the strongest bond one will ever know.

I will say this, though I am not sorry for saving his life. I must apologize for breaking my word. I don't take things like that lightly. A a young man, out father always taught that a true man kept his word. This has been my creed throughout my immortal life. The fact that I so easily broke my word and in turn you; and you friends suffered at the hand of my siblings for months. Lost love ones because of my brother rash temper. The regret I feel for all the consequences that came with my decision to renege on our arrangement… well, nothing seems adequate. However, I do apologize Miss Bennett sincerely I do."

She didn't know what the hell to make of this. It was the middle of the night, Elijah was sitting on her front pouch and was apologizing. Sure it was more than likely because he needed her for something… still she never thought she would see the day when an Original would be humble enough to apologize for she walked toward the railing that wrapped around the front porch, there she leaned against the railing. However, she kept the barrier between her and Elijah up … Bonnie guess there wasn't any harm hearing him out. " What do you want Elijah?"

"It's not me who needs your help Mrs Bennett. Rather it is a girl, just 16. She is a witch, who acquired far too much magic. Magic that has become difficult to control. My hope is that you will be willing to teach her."

Bonnie frowned " Teach her what?"

"Magic, of course. How she can use it with out it taking over her and ultimately overwhelm her."

She shook her head " I'm not a teacher, everything I learn came from trial and error. Even when I had a teacher I was a wreak. How can I teach her anything? Once more, why are you so interested in this witch; since when have the Original family cared about my people?"

He looked up at her and Bonnie started taken aback by the emotion in his eyes. Even though he was smiling, there was a sadness there. As if he was remember something… something that had meant a great deal to him. Or someone.

"I have nothing but respect for witches. Hence why I approached you in our first meeting."

"Why are you interested in her?"

He was thoughtful for a moment, before looking back at Bonnie once more. " If she can not find a way to control her powers… it will kill her. If she cannot control them, her coven will kill her. She is only a child, I feel for her plight."

That was new, she never heard of a coven killing one of their own. " Start from the beginning and don't leave anything out."

So that is what he did, he told her about Klaus. About how he was fighting to get his home back from a vampire named Marcel. A man he turned after Klaus freed him from slavery as a child, he continued about the witches that summoned him. Told her about Hayley, pregnant with Klaus child. Elijah got an eyebrow raise from her but continued on. He informed her of every thing he had learned. How the Reaping worked, that Marcel had rescued Davina- the witch in question. With the Harvest approaching Davina's life was in more danger than before. How they had already killed four out of the five girls.

"They are a danger too her, I fear that Marcel will only be able to protect her for so long. Tensions between the witches and vampire are growing at an exponential rate. Marcel has killed many of their coven to keep her safe. Still, there is one determined witch; Sophie Deveraux. I fear that she has the most to gain and nothing to lose with all her family dead; including one of the girls from the Reaping. If Davina can not gain control of her magic, it will only be a matter of time before she is dead."

Bonnie sat next to Elijah now, she had been so horrified by Elijah's tell she had to sit. Witches were protectors, they were not the ones to take human lives. It was their duty to protect those who couldn't. The Reaping and The Harvest wasn't new not really . it just went by a different name. Still, it was such a barbaric act that Bonnie had assumed that it went away with the time of Dark Ages. After, learning so much about the craft it always amazed her that there was still so much that she had yet to learn. Grams had trained her to draw from nature. Tapping into Dark magic drew from nature but it feed on the persons darkest wants and desirous. Expression… that was a whole other level.

Her heart went out to Davina. Bonnie had thought that their lives were bad, at least ; for a time she had Grams to help. Even Shane had been helpful… until he turned crazy. Davina, had a vampire that knew nothing about how to help her. Yes, he was protecting her but that would be beside the point if she could not get all that magic under control. There were a thousand reason why she should so say no… but she wouldn't. This was it, the reason she was looking for. She's been restless for months now, Mystic Falls no longer had an appeal for her. Now, Bonnie had a reason to leave and not just that. To help a girl that not so long ago... had been her.

Something Bonnie wished someone had done for her…

"If I say yes, there would be conditions."

He nods " Of course, name it"

Bonnie harden her face, trying to mimic Damon when he was make deals with the enemy " One, I don't want to get involved in this war. What every your family is planning to take over the Quarter I want no part of it. My entire capacity is for that girl. Not to give your family an upper hand. Or the witches for that matter."

"Done."

"Two, I will not be Klaus', your's or any other siblings beck and call. I'm not a witch for hire and neither is Davina. Unless it's life of death-which I doubt it will come to that. My magic is mine."

"Understandable."

"Three, the minute… I mean the instant I find out that you or your family is up to something. The minute you try to renege on my conditions. The moment, Klaus takes an innocent life. I will not hesitate to kill him you or anyone else. There will other conditions, upon which you are to agree with them."

Elijah chuckled and nodded once more. " Does this mean you will accompany me to New Orléans, Ms Bennett?"

Bonnie stood and walked back to her front door, once she had passed the thresh hold she allowed the barrier to drop between her and Elijah.

"You'll have an answer in the morning."

As she closed the door, Bonnie wished she could wipe that knowing grin off his face. Was she really that predictable. Once the door closed she protect the house and slide down to the floor. She was really going to do this... She was really going to leave Mystic Falls. Her home for nineteen years, she would uproot her life to help a girl she didn't know. In a city full of vampires. With crazy witch-kiling witches that had a Harvest coming. Sighing she stood and walked slowly up the step to her room. She completly drained mentally she collapsed on her bed. Bonnie stared up at her ceiling, a chill ran down her spine -an omen.

Fingers crossed.

By the next morning, after a restless sleep. All of her things were ready to go. She had called Elijah the moment she woke -after she found a note with a number to contact him sticking out from underneath the front door. He had sent her direction through her phone. There was just one thing left to do…

Her door bell sounded and she sighed. Around nine that morning she called Jeremy and asked him to stop by. She knew that he would be upset. That he would want to come with her. However, over the last few months; Bonnie was starting to wonder if she was in love with him. The three months she was dead, Jeremy was the one that was there. They had formed a bond that no one would understand. He was a friend, a confidant, a lover. Jeremy was one of the most important people in her life now. Still, Mystic Falls held no appeal to it. It was time for her to live a life outside of it. Still, it wasn't Mystic she was leaving.. . She would be leaving all of her friends, she would be leaving him.

As she descended the stair case, her heart pounded against her chest. This wouldn't be easy but there was nothing else for her to do. She open the front door, and her heart broke as Jeremy smile beamed at her.

"Thanks for coming" she said hugging him as he took her in his arms.

"Of course, I mean it's not like I wouldn't do anything for you if you asked."

Another stab to her heart. Suddenly she felt wholly selfish to want to leave this place. To leave him. Jeremy frowned as Bonnie stayed silent…

"Ar...e you going to let me in?" he asked

Smiling weakly she stepped aside a granted entrance. Following him in to the living room. Bonnie sat down on the couch where Jeremy joined her. They sat there in silence, she could feel Jeremy's eye on her but she didn't have the courage to look him in the eye… at least not yet.

"What's going on Bon? Obviously there is something you need to tell me so… out with it"

Taking a deep breath, Bonnie found her courage and looked at him. Her heart broke.

"I have to go somewhere?"

He frowned "Ok… where do you need to go?"

If she told him she was going to help Elijah's witch friend. Jeremy would do everything he could to stop her. She wouldn't lie to him … just leave omit a few details... " To Atlanta, my mom thinks it would be a good idea to come stay with her for a little while."

…Or lie completely.

"But why now, it's been months since… why does she want you to come now?"

Bonnie shrugged her shoulders, she didn't want to lie to him. She wanted to tell him the truth. Tell, him all of her fears. Tell him that Mystic Falls… just wasn't home anymore. Still, she knew that if she did that than he would come with her. There was no way he would let her go to New Orléans alone. That was something that couldn't happen. There was a supernatural war going on down there, to have Jeremy into the middle of that. To put him in the mist of that danger. Well there was no way that she could do it. The risk would be to great, Elena lost her brother once. She would not be the reason that Elena lost him again. So she would lie, she would tell him whatever she needed to keep him safe.

" I miss her Jer, with my dad gone… I'm all alone."

He took her hand in his " You have me, and Elena,Caroline, Matt even Damon and Stefan. We are all here for you. Elena said you can move into the boarding house so your not here alone."

"It's not just about being alone Jer, it's about family. It's about being with my people," Bonnie take Jeremy's face in hand as tear form in her eyes. She felt like a horrible person. "I love you, and Elena, Caroline and Matt. Even Damon and Stefan. You all are so important to me, you and Damon had such a huge part in bring me back… I will never be able to repay you for that…"

"Bonnie,"

"You all... mean more to me than you could ever know, but this is something I need to do. This place, I've lost to much. I've seen too much pain. I…I can't look around this town without something to remind me of my father, or Grams, or all the people who died that I couldn't save. Maybe it makes me a coward to leave like this… but it's the only thing I can think of to keep sane."

"What about us? What happens with us when you leave?"

I smile weakly, " I love you Jer, but I don't expect or want you to wait for me while I get my act together," he began to shake his head but she continued " I want you to live your life Jer. Make friends, finish high school and do all the things you love, I want you to hold on to them"

"I love you! I want to hold on to you."

"I love you too, but I can't stay here anymore. And I can't ask you to leave with me."

They sat their in silence, he wore a grim look on his face as she stood. She didn't think it would hurt so much, saying goodbye to him. Every word she said she ment. Being with Jeremy was good, but even that wasn't enough. She had to let him go, she had to let go of him. There were other people Bonnie needed to say goodbye to. Still, she couldn't help but feel the pang of guilt for lying to Jeremy. For the lie she would tell all of them. However, it was the only way, he would hurt for a while now but in the long run he could be happier without her... He would be.

"When are you leaving?"

"Today, after I say goodbye to everyone, I told them to meet me at the boarding house. After that I have to hit the road." she laughed weakly.

Jeremy closed the gap that Bonnie made. He took her in his arms.\ and held her there. She used every bit of strength to keep the tears at bay. If it was this hard to say goodbye to Jer, she didn't want to imagine what it would be like to say good-bye to her sisters. He took a hold of her chin, leaning down he pressed his lips against hers. It was sweet, soft, loving. It was everything their relationship had been. It was the promise of what it could have been. Still… she wasn't sure what to make of them. He lingered there a moment longer before pulling away. The tears flowed freely now from, she would miss him.

" Let me help you with your bags" he whispered. She nod and they both walk back towards the front. He grabbed the two suitcases by the door and walked towards Bonnie's car. Bonnie turned, took on last look at her home. A place she had grown up. Were she learn magic, researched spells. The place were, they had girls nights, sleepover and parties. She wasn't sure when or if she would be back but regardless she took a moment to say goodbye. closing the door of her old life. Mystic Falls would be her past… her future was uncertain but she held on to hope that things would change… and for the better...

The Mikaelson Estate: New Orléans, Present day.

I watch as Rebekah walked behind Elijah desk and took his sit, he had excused himself from the room leaving me alone with his sister. I couldn't say I really had a problem with Rebekah… per say. Still she was a sister to a crazy man, and a reform liar. There was no telling what she was capable of. Finally I took one of the empty sits in front of Elijah's desk. There we sat in silence for a moment, before Rebekah made a move to one of the desk draws. She pulled out a bottle of Scotch and two glasses…

"Care for a drink?" she pose.

I shrug my shoulders, I wasn't a hard liquor kind of girl. However in this situation and my nerves, it may be the thing that keeps me from running out of this mad house. Pouring the amber liquid into the glass, I use my magic to bring one of the glasses to the edge of the desk, before I pick it up and take a sip. I cough, as the alcohol burns the back of my throat on the way down.

"You'll get use to it" as she takes a long pull from her glass.

I doubt I'll ever get use to anything here.

"So I have a question?" she says after studying me for a moment.

"I may have and answer for you."

" What do your friends thing about you being here?"

I take a long sip from my cup and Rebekah smiles… " They don't know that your here do they?"

" The less they know the better, besides, I doubt that your brother would take kindly to having the gang mucking up his business here."

"Too right," another pause" So what did you tell them, if you don't mind my asking?"

I shrug taking another small sip, the burning was gone. " I told them I need to help my people. Not a completely lie. However I did say that I was going to Atlanta. It's better this way."

"It's better that you just abandon the people who've known your whole life. To help a girl you barely know, a stranger in a city that is at supernatural war. It seems a bit daft to me."

The guilt hit me again as the weight of her words rang true, but I had my own truth to tell her… " I wouldn't expect you to understand. You, who came into our lives only to make a mess of things. That reeked havoc on use out of boredom. My friends are important to me, without them… I may not have come out so great with everything that has happen to my family. You want to know why I want to help Davina? It's because I have been where she is; not to long ago I was sixteen and found out that I had powers that I didn't understand. My life, learning the craft after Grams died was an ordeal; full of mistakes, sheer luck and tons of hits and misses.

I wish someone had been there for me. I wish I hadn't been so desperate to learn how to control my gift that I turned to a man who only wanted to use me to bring back his family. If I had someone, maybe I wouldn't have turned to him. Maybe I would have been able to kill Silas the first time and my father would still be alive. Maybe I wouldn't be stuck, picking up the shattered pieces of my life. A mess I made all on my own. I didn't have that person to lean once my Grams was gone. If I can help her now… maybe it means that everything I went through wasn't for nothing. All the bad things, all the pain and lost was so I had the knowledge to pass on to someone… Davina is that someone, who a person to look out for her best interest. Not treat her like a weapon.

So yes, I feel bad. I hate that I lied to my friend. Hate, that I couldn't be stronger and stay in a town full of bad memories. However it was not without purpose, I will protect them anyway I can because they are all the family I have left. So if that means I have to lie to them I will. If it means I have to hurt , maim or kill others to keep them safe… then that is what I will do. More importantly , I came here because it was my choice and I wouldn't let them talk me out of it. So you can sit there, and think me 'daft'. At the end of the day, I know what I stand for. I know what I'm willing to fight for. Can you say the same?"

Her blue eye bore into me , she didn't trust me. Not that I couldn't understand that, I didn't trust any of them. However there was something else in her eyes, respect. Yes, she may not understand my choice but she could respect that it was mine. I had a feeling that she was the same way. Maybe we had more in common than I thought. Not that it would make us best friends or anything… but respect was a very good place to start. With a heavy sigh, she smiles at me raising her glass…

"Well, let me be the first to welcome you Bonnie Bennett. Welcome to Nola, get ready for a very bumpy ride." She finishes tilting her glass towards. I in turn do the same.

Yes, bumpy ride indeed.


A/N: I know I am way to excited for this story but that is only because I know what is going to happen next. For a first chapter it's good. Setting everything up is a pain but you have to set the back story a bit.

*Food for Thought*

This chapter starts at the end of episode 5 of TO, when Elijah is explain just how dire the situation is for them. I know a few people, ( myself included) thought that Bonnie should be one of the character from TVD to crossover to TO. A big reason has to do with the fact that she (was) a witch. Thought that is a valid point I thought a better reason was to faceoff with Klaus again. ( or kissoff, I know I'm corny.)

I felt like through out TVD, Bonnie kind of handed Klaus his ass... more than once. Yet, Klaus didn't respond in his normal... I'm going to-kill-everyone-you-love-and-watch-you-suffer thing that he does. Some may say that had to do with Caroline ( a possibility). I would like to think it has more to do with the fact that there is just something about Bonnie that he can't shake. She gets under his skin, the only person to every come close to killing him and he let her live. I mean he has to be asking himself why that is, right? These are the feelings I want to explore with Klaus towards Bonnie in this story. Not to mention just how is Bonnie going to feel when she starts to see a different side to Klaus. ( and I'm not talking drawing ponies either). Bonnie isn't as closed-minded as people think, she is just very cautious and that's not always a bad thing. Who knows, maybe Marcel will be the one to open her eyes a bit and really get her to see what being a vampire means to not only The Originals but all the vampires in the Quarter. As for Marcel and Bonnie's first meeting...

Let's just say, it will be a magical one ;D (Corny I know... so sue me)

That's all I got. I really hope y'all like the first chapter, another gift for the new year from me to you.

Read, favorite, review... you know the drill :D Thanks again guys and as always...

Happy Reading!
