Somewhere

Elena and Isobel in season 2 before Isobel take her necklace off.

Isobel was in her car with her daughter tied up in the back seat. Elena had woken up earlier but after a few harsh words exchanged she decided that if her mother wasn't going to tell her where they were going or why, she wouldn't talk to her at all.

"I tried to do my best to protect you Elena… I sold Katherine to Klaus in exchange for him leaving you alone to live your life with your friends until the ritual… It's all I could do… he had me figured out and compelled in no time…" Isobel told her daughter. Elena might not be looking at her but she knew she was listening.

"I didn't tell him about your existing… He already knew when I got close to his witch…He knew who you were and where you lived…" She added, pleading Elena to believe her with her eyes.

Elena couldn't deny that Isobel was believable. She actually made sense and Elena wanted to believe her.

"Where are we going?" Elena asked.

"Somewhere you'll be safe until Katherine is with Klaus… I'm just getting you out of the way." Isobel informed her.

"You know it's too late for us right?" Elena asked her mother.

"I know Elena… I'll regret it forever… Maybe we'll have our chance in another life…" Isobel said.

"Maybe…Somewhere…someday…" Elena said and chuckled before she added "It reminds me of this song from this musical…" Isobel smiled softly and said:

"I know…me too…I have it on my Ipod right here." After saying that she looked around in her bag and once the Ipod was out, she looked through it some before pressing play and putting the volume up so Elena could hear it too.

There's a place for us,
Isobel was lip-syncing to the lyrics.
Somewhere a place for us.
Peace and quiet and open air
Wait for us Somewhere.
Elena decided to join her mother and started lip-syncing too.
There's a time for us,
Some day a time for us,
Time together with time to spare,
Time to look, time to care,
Isobel looked at Elena and realised her daughter would never know just how much she really cared, how much she had been willing to sacrifice for her daughter's happiness.
Someday! Somewhere.
We'll find a new way of living,
Elena could see in her head what her life with Isobel and John could have been like… She would have been happy, she knew it.
We'll find a way of forgiving
Elena knew she would forgive her mother for everything when given the time. Maybe she could even find it in her to forgive John.
Somewhere.
There's a place for us,
A time and place for us.
Hold my hand and we're half way there.
At this point they were looking at each other, in the eyes. They both wished they could have a second chance to know each other and get to know each others.
Hold my hand and I'll take you there
Somehow, Someday, Somewhere!

When the song was over, Isobel pulled the car on the side of the road and parked it. Elena realised it was next to a cemetery. Isobel opened the door for her daughter and showed her the way. They were in front of a grave; the grave Isobel's parents had placed for her. They talked some more and out of the blue, without any warning, Isobel took her necklace off and put it in her daughter's hand before she burned in the sun, dying for the last time of this life.

Later, in her bedroom, Elena put the necklace in her jewellery box, in case she ended up changed in a vampire and needed her necklace to go out in the sun. She would have something of her mother. Turning on her computer she looked from the song they had listened to earlier and pressed play as she laid in her bed, crying the loss of the woman who gave birth to her and, somehow Elena was sure of it, died for her.
