Once everyone had somewhat pulled themselves together, they all ended up back in the very place they had been told about Erik. They mostly sat in silence in the living room as they waited for Grace who was due back.
Finn still barely said a word since he managed to get out of bed this morning, though that was to be expected.
Luna was sitting comfortably in Kol's lap while Kol played with her hair. They were completely relaxed as they simply sat in comfort of each other's presence.
It was completely silent until there was a knock at the door. Luna was the first one up since she had an idea as to who it was. She opened the door to reveal Grace nervously waiting at the door. The blonde immediately steps out to hug her best friend before nodding for Grace to come in.
Grace hesitates at the door, she had spent 500 years running from these people and she was about to willingly step into the same house as them. No one could blame her for hesitating.
Luna sent her friend a reassuring smile, confident that Grace would be perfectly fine inside the house. The brunette nodded in return and followed Luna inside the house.
When they entered the living room everyone stopped what they were doing to watch them. As they entered Luna instantly noticed how Elijah's eyes were glued to her brunette friend, further reinforcing her idea that Elijah was still madly in love with Grace.
Elijah couldn't help but stare at Grace as she stood in front of him. He had seen just how happy his little brother was with Luna and couldn't help but wonder what would happen if he was still with Grace.
He remembered meeting her over five centuries ago and how he was instantly captivated by her. Just like he was still completely captivated with her now, even if he refused to accept it.
Not even Celeste could rival how he felt about Grace.
"I've missed you," Aria said as she gripped Grace in a hug. "You didn't stick around that long after the party," she commented, pouting childishly.
Grace laughed at her oldest friend. "With everything that happened, I needed the break," she said.
"Fair enough," Aria said, shrugging.
"So, do you have any ideas on what to do about our rapidly approaching problem?" Grace asked, specifically looking at her two friends since they had experience with Erik.
Luna lets out a sigh, "nope," she said, a sinking feeling in her gut. She knew that they needed to get an idea on what to do and soon.
"Oh, great," Grace replied sarcastically.
"You know what," Luna said. "Why don't you guys think about that here while I go pay my father a visit and catch up with Grace."
She didn't really wait for a reply before she kissed her husband and dragged Grace out of the mansion. The blonde knew that Grace was becoming uncomfortable in the house belonging to the people who had left her on the run for 500 years.
As Grace and Luna entered the Boarding House they could hear the voices of three familiar people. Sharing a knowing look, the two vampires followed the voice to the sources.
"Elena," Damon barked at the doppleganger. "We've been through this, if whatever was in that coffin could kill Klaus it doesn't matter. They're gone. And what's the point, neither Klaus or his siblings have bothered up since the party."
"They won't leave us alone, Damon," Elena whined, making Luna and Grace roll their eyes. "We should kill them before they kill us."
"God, Elena," Luna said, announcing the presence of herself and Grace. "Stop whining, you petty little bitch."
Damon smiled at the sight of his daughter, he hadn't seen her in a few days and was beginning to miss her. He opened his arms and Luna instantly sped into his welcoming arms.
"The originals will leave you alone," Luna added. "Even Klaus. As long as you grow up and leave them alone too."
"How can you be sure that you can control them?" Elena snapped with a stuck up, bitch tone.
Damon noticed that his daughter was getting annoyed by the doppelganger and so he stroked his hands through her hair to calm her down. He glared at Elena making her flinch. He didn't like it when someone angered or annoyed his Angel.
"Because she had them wrapped around her finger," Grace muttered teasingly.
Luna smirked knowing that it was essentially true while Damon, Stefan and Elena looked at the two confused. Luna glanced at Elena and sent her father and uncle a look that said that she wanted the doppelganger gone.
It was no secret that neither Grace or Luna trusted Elena.
"Elena, why don't you head home," Stefan said. "I'll call you later."
The doppelganger huffed like a child before she stomped out of the house. It doesn't go unnoticed when Damon and Stefan roll their eyes.
"What she meant was that I'm family to them," Luna explained to her father and uncle.
"What do you mean?" Damon asked his daughter, confused as to how she was involved with the originals.
Luna smiled and hesitantly spoke, "well, I'm married to Klaus' younger brother," she told them.
"What!?" both Damon and Stefan spat out in shock.
Luna smiled and explained everything that she had kept from them. She told them everything that had happened from 1864 to now and what was going on with Erik.
It had taken Damon a moment to accept that his only daughter was married but he eventually got over it. He was much more concerned with the Erik situation than anything else, he didn't want his daughter to get hurt. He was already enraged with what she had told him that Erik had done to her when she was a child.
"So, what's up with you two and the doppelganger?" Grace asked in curiosity having seen the brothers' expressions when Elena was there.
The two brothers groaned at the question making Luna laugh at their expressions of annoyance and irritation. "Oh," Luna said, "you've finally realised that she was playing you both."
"Yep," Damon said with a sarcastic smirk.
It was obvious that both brothers were absolutely done with Elena Gilbert, something Luna was grateful for as she had always suspected that Elena would pull something like this.
"Well finally," Grace muttered to the brothers.
"Anyway," Luna said with a smile, "you should meet Kol sometime. And I swear that Klaus is not as bad as you might think."
Stefan and Damon were hesitant but eventually they nodded in agreement. Despite what Klaus had done in the past, they believed that Luna's judgement was possibly right.
Grace and Luna stayed at the Boarding House until late in the afternoon. They spent the hours catching up on what they had missed with each other.
As the two vampires were leaving Grace decided that she was going to stay in her own home due to the fact that she was not really comfortable staying with the Mikaelsons.
"Have you been able to contact her?" Grace asked her blonde friend as they left the Boarding House.
Luna sighed, shaking her head. "Not yet," she replied before they parted ways to head to their own homes.
Once Luna arrived back at the Mikaelson home she immediately went to find Klaus as she thought about what she had heard when she had arrived at the Boarding House.
"Nik," she said, announcing her presence at the door of Klaus' art room.
"Yes," Klaus replied, only glancing away from his painting for a second.
The blonde took a breath before she spoke, entering the room. "I think we have another problem," she said, making him put his brush down and turn to her. "The Bennett witch has opened the locked coffin."
A look of panic and worry crossed the hybrids face when he heard the news. He swore to himself as he closed his eyes and groaned.
"Yeah," Luna said grimly, knowing that this was far from good.
