Chapter 2
Rebekah gaped at her parents as she blinked few times. She must misheard. Her parents wanted to return to the town where their youngest son had died. Rebekah felt like crying just on the single thought of Henrik. Those bloody werewolves! Rebekah fully supported her father actions to eliminated those disgusting creatures. They ruined everything. If it wasn't for them, Henrik would still be alive, and she wouldn't be a vampire.
She had been angry at her parents for turning her and her siblings into vampires without consulting them first. Rebekah, most likely, took longer to accept her vampirism, thought she had been good at pretending that she liked it.
However, after centuries, Rebekah accepted what she is, and most important she learned to like it and use all the benefits of it and if she had to be honest, she wouldn't return to being human, even if she had this opportunity. It passed so much time since Rebekah stopped being human that she wouldn't even know how to act like one. Besides, being a human would mean she would be separated from her family by death. No matter what would happen, their family would always be together. Always and forever.
Kol always mocked Finn that as a married man still lived with his parents. Kol had always repeated that when he would get married, he would buy a big villa far away from his parents. As if.
Rebekah couldn't explain it, but there was something about this family that made them stick together. There might be times where not all of them lived under the same roof or even in the same city, however, all of them always found their way back to each other, and they would never be separated. They were the originals and thus immortal, except their mother.
Esther hadn't turned herself into a vampire as she stated that she as a witch would be more useful than as a vampire. She had casted some very powerful spell on herself that had made her body ageless. Both Rebekah and Kol had used to be pretty angry at their mother that she didn't use that spell on them. However, they had gotten over it after some time.
Rebekah loved practising magic. She had always competed with Kol. However, their ability of using magic had gone soon after they had became vampires. Klaus, Elijah and Finn had seemed to accept the lack of magic faster than her and Kol. Kol still liked to brag about what he learned from the witches, even though, it wouldn't be a use to him.
"You want us to back to the town where we didn't put our foot for over a thousand year, and where we lost our brother?" Kol asked with disbelief.
"Yes, yes, I do." Esther slightly smiled, but Rebekah could see a sadness in her eyes. Stupid Kol, reminding their mother of Henrik's death.
"Mother, can you explain us what induced you to this decision?" Elijah was sitting upright, his eyes fixated on Esther's. It looked like he tried to read what was on their mother's mind.
"Also, what about New Orleans? Who will take over the town?" Klaus asked.
Esther for a moment glanced at her knees, a small smile played around the corner of her lips. "Despite the horrible thing that had taken place in the Mystic Falls, we still had great times there." Esther raised her head and fixated her eyes on her five children. "It was the first town where we all have became a family. The town where we promised we would always be together. Always and forever." Esther paused for a moment. Nobody spoke a word.
Rebekah saw where their mother was going with this speech. She wanted them to feel nostalgic about the town that they had once called home. It worked.
Neither Rebekah nor anyone said they would like to return to Mystic Falls. They almost never mentioned that town as it brought bad memories. However, there existed that small part where Rebekah missed Mystic Falls, and she was certain all of them missed it, even if it was just for a little.
"I admit the desire of return came from me feeling nostalgic, however, I believe we may retrieved our good times that we had there."
Elijah, Klaus and Finn didn't shift a muscle as they carefully listened to every word their mother spoke. Katerina and Sage hold the hand of their partner. While, Kol was shaking his head and rolling his eyes during this conversation. Rebekah could swore that their father had sent few angry looks towards his youngest son.
"I do not expect us to move to the Mystic Falls and stay there forever, but what I expect is for us to give the chance to live again in the Mystic Falls, even if it will be just for a short period of time."
"About your question, Klaus, I've talked with Marcel and he agreed to keep the town under the order while we gone," Mikael stated.
Klaus nodded as his face gloated, so did Rebekah's.
"Marcel? How is he? Aww, we missed him."
Esther and Mikael took Marcel into his family when he was a boy and raised him as he was his own. When, Marcel turned into an adult, he asked Mikael to turn him into a vampire. Their father gladly complied Marcel's request.
"God, not him again." Kol grunted.
"Watch your language, Kol," Mikael scolded, then he turned to Rebekah and he said with a soft voice," Marcel is doing wonderful. He's working very hard to keep this town under control, and he understand the concept of good manners." Mikael emphasised on the last words. He liked to compare Marcel to Kol, which drove Kol mad. Kol had repeated several times during the trip how he had been glad he had freed himself from the comments of how Marcel was a better son than him.
Rebekah personally loved Marcel. He was another brother whom she could count on and she also could talk with Marcel about everything, even when it come to the men. Rebekah tried to avoid the men subject with her biological brothers, as all of them had been reacted in a way, Rebekah didn't like.
"Marcel started a relationship with a witch named Sophie, a year ago, and it's going very well to them," Elijah informed her, and Klaus.
"That's amazing!" A smile appeared on Rebekah's face. She always wanted what was the best for Marcel.
"I see our brother enjoy his life, and I'm highly happy about," Klaus said.
"So do I," Rebekah added.
"Now, shall we return to our conversation about the return to Mystic Falls?"
Esther's voice brought Rebekah back from her thoughts about Marcel. Moving to Mystic Falls would mean she wouldn't spend much time with him. Last time, she had seen him was over a hundred year ago, before she and her two brothers had left to travel to different countries. Sure, they had kept contact, but it wasn't the same. On the other hand, Rebekah didn't want to let her mother down.
"I don't expect you to answer, right away, though I hope it won't take too long time, too." Esther observed her children. Rebekah could hear how her mother's heart beat faster.
"Mother, if your wish is to return to Mystic Falls, then I shall meet your expectations," Finn said with his proud voice."
"So do I, as long as Katerina is all right to agree."
"Of course, I am." Katerina gazed at Elijah.
"I'm glad someone asked me for my opinion," Sage snorted.
"I promise you, you will love Mystic Falls," Finn assured Sage.
Sage didn't respond. She crossed her arm, and focus her eyes on some frame picture hanging on the wall.
"Well, I don't see any obstacles with us moving to Mystic Falls, so I'm for it." Kol smirked.
"Klaus? Rebekah?" Mikael turned to them awaiting for their responds.
Rebekah and Klaus looked at each other, waiting on who would make the decision. Whatever, Klaus would decide, Rebekah would follow, and vice versa.
After a short time which seemed like a long time, Rebekah and Klaus nodded.
"Yes, mother, we'll return to Mystic Falls." Rebekah and Klaus agreed on Esther's request.

catty: I'm glad you're enjoying Kalijah, I like them too :). I guess Esther not having a romance with a werewolf and not having a child with him changes everything ;). I've changed my mind and instead giving you (and my other readers) the list of ships that will appear on this story, I'll keep quiet about it and let my story to show you what ships that story will include. Kennet? Maybe. Thank you for your review.
XxxAngelStormxXx: Thank you for your review, I enjoy to write Finn and Sage relationship, especially when I include Esther ;).
