Thanks for the reviews!

Elijah Mikaelson had never been caught so off guard in his entire life. When his brother Niklaus told him that he had disposed of their siblings in the ocean in the last century, he had felt nothing but rage and wanted to destroy him. The only problem however was that he was an original hybrid which meant that the daggers forged by witches couldn't affect him because of his werewolf side which only left him with but one option of utilising a servant of nature. He only had one candidate in mind, Jonas Martin.

He was a single father of two children namely, Luka Martin and Greta Martin. It seemed that Klaus had gotten his claws on his youngest daughter and so he felt motivated to help Elijah in his quest of destroying his brother so he could get his daughter back.

The only way to kill Klaus without suffering any setbacks was when he was in transition to break the curse inflicted upon him but the problem however was that two of the major ingredients were nowhere to be found. There was no record of another doppelganger out there ever since Katherine fled away with the moonstone. This was until Rosemarie had invited her to a shabby old house to inform him of a new doppelganger she had found. The young doppelganger was meant to be traded for her and Trevor's freedom. Elijah carefully worded his promise to spare her but certainly not Trevor since he was the major reason of why they were in this mess in the first place.

Elena tried to bargain for her life and caught him off his guard when she revealed the location of the moonstone. It seemed ironic to him that it was hidden in Mystic Falls the place where it had been created a thousand years ago. The chance to flee with girl was snatched away from him when two young vampire upstarts came to her rescue and left him impaled against a wall. He was a little humiliated but chose not to set off to kill them since there had proven that there would fight to the death to protect her. Since they didn't know that he couldn't be killed by something so simple as a wooden stake he decided to use that to his advantage to shadow their movements.

It proved to be a good choice in the end when he learned of their plot with a vampire named Slater to undo the moonstone with magic. With that information he decided to get rid of Slater and to have the moonstone hand delivered to him. Once the vampire had delivered his message he had compelled him to handover to the Salvatore's he killed him in his apartment and moved over to his computer to delete all the information he had acquired during the course of his existence but paused when he saw two names he thought he would never see again.

Cassia and Holly.

…

900 years ago

Elijah and his siblings had felt a strong desire to visit their original home when they learned that Mikael was somewhere far away.New homes had replaced all the old ones. At first they thought that a war had broken out but what they learned truly shook them off their immortal coils.

A 55 year old man named Marcos approached them.

"Hello there."

They greeted him back and accepted his hospitality when he invited them into their home. The villagers didn't seem to know them which seemed to be a bonus to them.

"I seem to have noticed that village has changed a lot." Elijah spoke once they had finished dinning with the man. Klaus, Rebekah, Kol and Finn didn't say anything but watched Marcos in silence.

"Yes." The man said with a pained look. "Much has changed since that day of the massacre." He paused adopting a faraway look. This seemed only to make them more curious.

"Did a war break out?" Kol who couldn't contain his curiosity blurted out a question and blushed in embarrassment when his siblings gave him a pointed look. Marcos didn't notice this and proceeded on to tell them what had occurred.

"No, there was no war." He said getting up from his chair and walk over across the room before stopping in front of a shelf cabinet. Opening it, he pulled out a moleskin bottle of alcohol he asked if there wanted some and poured it once they had accepted.

"I was a child when it all happened." He said as he sat back down. Taking in a huge gulp of the alcohol he sighed deeply and cleared his throat. "Ayana and her band of witches thought it wise to bring a teenage girl bound to the village to execute her because according to them she didn't deserve to live."

Rebekah couldn't hide her disgust from Ayana's declaration. She and her family at least killed for food as a means of survival, but to kill because someone didn't deserve to live? Who was she to make such a bold declaration? The same thought ran through the others minds.

"The villagers and their trust in the spirits." Marcos shook his head. "I never could understand it?"

"Did there execute her? The girl?" Elijah asked as the man remained silent for a few minutes.

Shifting his gaze over to the original he shook his head. "There were about to but the girl managed to break her bindings in fury and cast a very dark spell on the land unheard of." He took another gulp as the siblings wondered what he meant. There had seen witches in their travels who practiced very dark magic.

"She conjured fire and vanished before everyone's eyes. This fire was like nothing I have ever seen. It consumed everything it came in contact with in a matter of seconds. It formed itself into frightening shapes not seen on this plane as it consumed anything in sight. We couldn't get away fast enough as it followed us as though it could sense our movements."

He had lost them there. What he spoke couldn't be possible that Kol and Finn who were magic users once felt the need to snort in disbelief.

There was one way to know if the man spoke the truth and Elijah decided to utilise it. He compelled the man to sit very still and not do anything before diving into his mind to search for that memory. Ten minutes later he broke the connection only to face the questioning looks of his siblings. In his eagerness to learn the truth he forgot that he never once told them of the power he had discovered.

"What did you just do?" Rebekah demanded impatiently.

Sighing tiredly he closed his eyes and pulled them into his mind. There yelped in surprise when they discovered themselves standing at the girl's trial before all hell broke loose.

"Fiendfyre!"

Kol scoffed at the spell that the girl spat only to jump back gasping at the powerful jet flame that escaped her palm. They all just stood and witnessed the horror that followed as the villagers ran to and fro from the fiery jaws of death no pun intended because that was the only way they could describe the flame. Homes, the people and livestock were being tossed in the air only to be swallowed whole by giant shaped serpents and great lizards that had giant wings(Dragons).

That was only until a blue ring flame appeared and encircled the remains of the village entrapping the great fiery monsters in between. A few bystanders who had survived watched from a distance as the beasts cried out as there were being absorbed into nothingness.

It was incredible but there couldn't explain how it was possible until Klaus gasped in surprise at seeing a beautiful woman dressed in a long black travelling cloak with her two palms raised up. The first thing he noticed where a pair of glowing green eyes brimming with power.

"Cassia."

It was her but she seemed healthier and a little older.

"Hold on, Cassia, as in the servant girl at the De Martels?" Rebekah asked her brother stared longingly at the young witch. She was a little surprised at that. Wasn't he in love with Aurora?

Once the flame had died out she blurred towards the girl who had started the flame and pulled out an arrow sticking in her chest.

"Holly what have you done?" Cassia murmured to herself.

Coming out of Elijah's mind Kol burst out "You can't be a witch and a vampire! It's not possible

"Did you know her that well?" Rebekah asked Klaus drawing out everyone's attention.

"And why didn't she flee from a life of servitude if she had this kind of power?" Elijah said looking at his brother.

"I did know her." Klaus responded. He hid his envy at learning that she had a daughter. "I loved her." Turning to face Elijah he spoke. "She couldn't escape then because her magic had been bound by witches from the moment she could walk."

Elijah nodded in understanding. "There must have known that she would grow up to be a threat. Just look at what her daughter just did."

Klaus turned away from his brother then not wanting to argue with him. Was that all he picked out from the scene. He had known the girl to be kind despite all she had been through and if she had wanted to, she could have burned down the De Martel's kingdom but she didn't.

…

Coming back to the present Elijah wondered if he could track down Cassia and ask if she could aid him in ridding this world of Niklaus.

…

Elijah stared unhappily at Jonas. "This doesn't help us Jonas." He had learned from the Warlock that the moonstone they had retrieved from the unsuspecting Bennett witch was fake.

"I'll get on it." Jonas said as he held the stone and began to chant to track down the owner. A minute later he spoke. "It appears that there is another witch in this town but her trail ends cold at the church ruins. She's good at covering her tracks."

"I guess that's a start." Elijah said

…

Opening her front door Holly paused inside and gasped at the person that stood on George's porch. He was 5'11'' in height and had a lanky, yet muscular body. Brown hair colour and hazel brown eyes. She couldn't keep herself from staring at the man since she was seeing him for the first time.

"Elijah." She whispered and thanked the heavens that she didn't slip by calling him uncle.

"Good morning, and since you seem to already know who I am it will make this conversation less awkward." He said smoothly. "I've come for the moonstone and not the fake replacement that you left for the Salvatore's to find in the old Lockwood well."

Blinking in surprise wondering how he got the information Holly suddenly sighed. "Let me guess, Katherine told you."

"She did." Elijah replied nodding once. "I must admit, it was rather impressive of you to capture her like that without trouble and ship her off to the tomb."

"Yes well it was payback." Holly said and frowned curiously. "Forgive me for asking, but why are you interested in the stone? It cannot be destroyed."

"I do not intend to destroy it." Elijah replied.

"You want to break the sun and moon curse?"

When no reply came she surmised that it was his intent. "I'll go and fetch it." Holly said before turning around before heading back to her room upstairs. Entering her room she took steps forward and one step to the left side of her bed before raising her hand up into the air as though to fetch something. She then closed her eyes and muttered a few words only for the moonstone to suddenly appear out of nowhere and drop into her palm.

Returning back to the front door she handed the stone to the original.

"You don't seem to have a problem with the fate that awaits your friend Elena." Elijah observed curiously.

"I do, but fighting you seems to be a lost cause. After all, you cannot be killed." Holly responded. "With that being said, I'm sure you have a way of keeping her alive after the sacrifice has already taken place. You are after all a noble man."

Elijah raised a delicate brow. "You seem to be well informed about me." He said. "I'll make you the same deal I made with Elena, live your life and do not interfere with my plans. If you do that I'll ensure that you, your friends and family are well protected."

Holly stepped outside of her home and raised her hand for Elijah to shake. The original paused for a moment in surprise before a small smile appeared on his face and reciprocated the girl's act.

"Deal." Holly said once their hands made contact before the original vanished from her sight.

…

Jonas spent a great deal of 30 minutes trying to locate the witch that Elijah had told him to be powerful enough to aid them since they couldn't locate the site of the massacre. All he had was a name and a face to go on but he decided to give it his best effort to no avail. There was a knock on his door before it opened to reveal the original himself.

"Any success?" Elijah asked as walked over towards the table he was sitting in.

"I've tried every locate spell I know and I am still no close to finding her." Jonas said as he stood up in surrender. "She is blocking me Elijah."

Elijah hid his disappointment and turned to look outside the window. "I guess we will just have to continue with our search for the site of the witch's massacre."

…

A million miles away Cassia had adopted a frown when she felt a witch try to track her down with magic. One of the rings she wore had a rune etched on it which would alert her of people who were looking for her and the intent based on their actions be it good or bad.

This one's intent was malicious and having spoken to a thrilled Holly who had informed her of Elijah making an appearance in Mystic Fall's couldn't be a coincidence that there were working together. What did they desire her for?
