"Now where are you going?" Marcel demanded an answer as Hope headed for the door with her bag around her chest.
"Davina and I are meeting up at Rousseau's bar." She calmly replied and without waiting for Marcel to reply, she walked out into the packed streets in the direction of the bar.
Minutes later, Hope spotted Davina by the door.
"Hey, so what's going-" Davina started but was interrupted by Hope yanking her into an isolated corner in the bar.
"Can I trust you?" Hope said sternly.
"What are you talking about?" Davina looked puzzled.
"Simple question: can I trust you?" Hope said once more.
"Oh course you can." Davina nodded, she knew whatever this was it was serious.
"Okay. I need your help, whatever happens tonight stays between us, no one finds out, especially not Marcel." Hope spoke.
"What's going on? You're scaring me." Davina took a step back.
"I'm waking the Mikaelsons. Elijah, Freya, my mother, Rebekah, and Kol. I need your help; I don't think I can do this by myself." Hope begged.
As soon as Davina heard Kol's name, she spoke up, "Count me in."
About an hour later, Hope pulled up into the driveway of a now worn down house in the middle of nowhere.
"Where are we?" Davina questioned.
"Honestly, I have no clue, just some house I found a few years ago and I hid the coffins here." Hope smiled as she turned to engine off and opened her car door.
Davina and Hope walked up to the door and walked inside. They turned the corner into the living room to see five coffins lying there. Davina walked up to the nearest one and opened the lid, it was Elijah.
"Elijah." Davina muttered.
"Huh? I didn't know you knew him." Hope seemed surprised to see that Davina knew Elijah.
"Yeah, sort of. I don't know him well but he has saved my life." Davina spoke with a smile, reliving the memories that flooded her. "But he is part of the reason I died 30 so years ago."
"Well don't think of that, your back now, you can forget about all the past." Hope tried to lighten the mood.
She removed her bag and put it down on a nearby table, pulled out the vials and gave Davina the one labeled 'Elijah.'
She took it and poured the red liquid down his throat.
"How long is it supposed to take before he wakes up?" Davina starred at Elijah with curiosity.
"I have no id-" Hope started to speak but was interrupted by a loud gasping sound as Elijah flung up from the coffin.
Both girls screamed and jumped back a foot or two, but looked at each other and started laughing. After they regained control of their laughter, they approached Elijah still in the coffin.
"Elijah? Are you okay..?" Hope spoke softly.
"Wher- wha- where am I?" Elijah mumbled under his breath, barely enough for a human to hear.
"You're awake. We're in a house about an hour drive from New Orleans." Hope replied instantly.
"Where is everyone?" He looked into Hope's eyes with his chocolate brown ones. "Where's Hayley?"
"You're the first we woke up, she's in one of these, and she's okay." Davina spoke up.
"Good." Elijah hopped out of the coffin; he fumbled around, still weak.
"Take it easy, you're still weak." Hope grabbed his arm, keeping him from falling. "Here" She positioned him next to the wall so he could lean up against it until he felt strong enough.
Davina and Hope walked over to the bag and each grabbed 2 vials.
Davina woke Freya and Hayley; and Hope woke Kol and Rebekah.
After a minute of them all trying to stand on their own and gaining their strength back. Kol saw Davina.
"Davina." He said with a smile. She returned the smile as she ran into his arms and embraced. Soon after, they shared a kiss.
"Whoa, wait! Is Kol the one you're always talking about?" Hope smiled as she put the pieces together.
"Always talking about?" Kol said with a smirk.
"Oh shut up, and yes." Davina laughed.
"How long has it been?!" Freya spoke loudly, killing the happy mood we had going.
"30 years." Hope said emotionless. She didn't know how to act right now.
"Hope... what about Hope?!" Hayley yelled at Davina and Hope. "Is she okay? Where is she?"
"Hope's-" Hope cut Davina off from finishing her sentence. She wasn't ready for them to know that she was Hope, she was her daughter.
"Hope's okay." Hope spoke in the third person.
"Where is she? Is she a...?" Hayley asked.
"She's in New Orleans, and yes. A little more than 10 years ago she was killed but she had Marcel's blood in her system, she turned." Hope told Hayley; her mother.
"You seem to know a lot about Hope..." Rebekah spoke for the first time.
"I know her. I like to think that I know her more than she knows herself." Hope said with a smile...if only they knew.
"Oh thank god she's alright." Hayley smiled and hugged Elijah.
"Can I talk to you? Outside." Davina grabbed Hope's hand and pulled her outside. "What are you doing? Why didn't you tell them your name?" She whispered, hoping they weren't listening.
"I don't know! I just...froze. I got scared. What if she doesn't like the way I turned out?" Hope whispered back.
"Hope, that's your family in there. They will love you no matter what." Davina encouraged Hope. "You need to tell them the truth."
"No." Hope said.
"Yes." Davina replied.
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"Yes."
"Fine." Hope gave in. "I'll tell them."
"Okay we're back. I think Hope wants to tell you something." Davina smiled as she said Hope's name. The best friends waited until someone caught on to what she had just said.
Hope stood there in the middle of the room, shaking.
"Bloody hell..." Rebekah muttered and walked up to Hope. Rebekah started tearing up and looked into the girl's eyes, and in those green eyes she saw Klaus. Rebekah gave her a huge hug.
"What's going on?" Kol asked everyone, he and everyone else obviously hadn't caught on.
"How long do you think it'll take them to figure it out?" Hope chuckled along with Rebekah.
"I'm guessing about another minute. They'll figure out why I'm being so affectionate." Rebekah laughed.
"Oh my god." Hayley took a step forward. "Hope." She smiled.
Hope laughed and nodded.
"Oh my god!" Hayley launched into Hope's arms, hugging her until she could no longer breathe.
Without breaking the hug, Hope whispered "Hi, mom."
Elijah was silent, he starred at Hope with his eyes, and he knew who she was all along. When he first looked into her eyes after he woke up, he saw his younger brother, Niklaus. Her green eyes and dark blonde hair had given it away for him. He knew she was Hope, he was just curious to see how far she would take her little act that she wasn't Hope.
Hope's phone starts ringing. She ignores it. Then again. And again. Until she finally stops the reunion to pick up her phone.
"Hello?" Hope asked.
"It's late, you can't keep doing this." Marcel said on the other side of the phone call. "Where are you?!"
"Marcel." Hope looked around the room; everyone was either stunned or angered by just his name. "I'm at Davina's." She lied. Hope put the call on speaker phone so that the two witches could hear the conversation.
"Oh really? So if I walk on over to Davina's, you'll be there?" Marcel knew Hope was lying.
"Yeah." Hope said sternly. She knew Marcel would listen to the way she spoke to see if she sounded nervous.
"Well okay. It's a good thing I'm already on my way there. I guess I'll see you there." Marcel then hung up the phone. She was so caught.
"Davina give me your house keys. I need to beat him there." Hope panicked.
"Here, but the car will never get there in time!" Davina shouted, she was just as worried and scared as Hope was.
"Well then it's a good thing I'm fast." Hope smiled and within the second she was gone and out the door, out of sight.
The Mikaelsons were in awe when they saw how fast Hope was, how strong and fearless she was.
A few minutes later, Davina received a call from her house phone. She slowly answered and put it on speaker; she couldn't tell who it was yet.
"Hello?" Davina called out on the phone.
"Hey." Hope laughed.
"Oh my god, I thought it was Marcel! Did you get there before he did?" Davina laughed along.
"With time to spare. But now he's watching me like a hawk and if I try to get back to you I'm sure I'll get caught." Hope spoke quietly.
"Okay. We'll figure it out." Davina looked around the room, hopefully someone had a plan.
"I'll try to leave as soon as possible, but you should probably just stay out of town. It's probably not very wise to bring all the Mikaelsons back into town right now." Hope sounded like there was more to the story.
"What do you mean 'right now'? What's going on?" Davina knew something was up.
"Let's just say, all the vampires in a 10,000 mile radius is in town, apparently there's rumors that Marcel is going to reveal my father to the vampires so they can take out their anger on him. So I know you're not going to like this, but I think I need to free him myself...tonight. It's too dangerous for any of you to be in town again."
"No! Are you insane?! Do you remember the last time you went against Marcel! He killed you! You had his blood in your system and you turned but he still killed you!" Davina shouted. Elijah and Hayley looked concerned; they hated Marcel even more to know he has harmed Hope.
"I have to do this! Before Marcel hurts him even more than he already has! Once I get him out of there, then I bring him out to you guys and we'll sort thing out from there."
Elijah grabbed the phone from Davina, "Hope, you cannot put your life on the line to free Niklaus on your own. I could never forgive myself if Marcellus hurts you in anyway."
"Isn't that what family is supposed to do? Put their family lives before their own? I need to do this. I give you my word I will get my father and still manage to escape without harm. I promise." Hope hung up the phone, she was feeling heroic. But instead she felt this wicked twist in her stomach, her nerves where on high. She just gave her word that she would free her dad and still get out of town without Marcel punishing either one of them. How in hell was she supposed to do that?
