Nadia and Enzo are feeding on two people on the side of an empty road at the border of Mystic Falls when they hear something, Nadia elbows Enzo they look around and see a van coming out of the border, the guy driving the van stops near them. " Are you two ok?"
Nadia looks at Enzo and thinks fast she entangles their hands. " Yeah we're just taking a romantic walk isn't that right honey."
" That's right love."
Trip comes over to them " Is that blood?"
Nadia cleaned her face before Trip got out of the truck but she sees Enzo missed a spot. " Yeah this ones a bitter but I love her more for it."
Trip shots them both with a tranquilizer gun that has vervain in it.

Klaus is trying to enter Elijah's thoughts when he sees a mark of a petal on Elijah's neck. He knows exactly what the petal is and knows what type of location it grows in.
He is walking through the bayou to find the roots of the plant to heal Elijah, When he hears a heartbeat. He pins the person to a tree it's Ansel. " Stop following me I will say it again I have no plan to take Esther's bargain and become mortal so tell Esther request denied and you can piss off I'm in a hurry to help my real family."
Ansel turning to look at his son walking away. " Your looking for the merlock orchid."
" And how could you know that?"
" I saw you last night carry Elijah home I used to find the orchid for your mother to put Mikael to sleep without my help you could be searching forever."
A couple seconds of staring at each other Klaus responds. " Esther bought you back from the dead my sense of strategy tells me it wasn't to play hide and seek and be her doting Adonis."
" Niklaus your mother found me on the other side and asked me if I wanted to come back I told I did but I wouldn't help with whatever her plan was all I wanted was to know my son."
Klaus goes to walk away when Ansel Interrupts " If your going to storm off I suggest you storm off to the west."

Trip puts the unconscious vampires in his truck and chains them up.

" A thousand years estranged surely you have questions for me I know I have a couple for you."
Klaus just wants to get this plant and heal Elijah " Only one is there a way to cure Elijah without listing to the railings of an old man?"
Ansel walking past Klaus " The cost of my expertise is conversation."
Klaus giving in doing what Caroline asked getting to know his father. " I used to tell myself my real father didn't even know I existed if he did he would have never let me grow up with Mikael."
Ansel turning around surprised Klaus is opening up only a little but still." Esther forbid me from seeing you I knew one day you would trigger your curse and need me when that happened Mikael found me first I fought him for you."
" You didn't fight hard enough because he killed you and your grand declaration is a few centuries too late."
" You joke but I know you feel a void in your life I have watched you travel the corners of this world, see monuments erupted, feast on histories most extraordinary men but found no peace."

" Davina we need a locator spell Nadia and Enzo should of been back by now."
" My mom told me that there is this sketchy guy in town and he drives over the border a lot in a van and has people cleaning his van all the time. He might of taken them."
Katherine handing Davina a map she got from their library now even more worried about Nadia.
Kol was outside when the girls came down he looks at his girlfriend who is smoothing out the map. " We're helping?"
Stefan comes down the stairs " An original vampire who can't die might come in handy we don't know who took them."
" I'm living proof that an original can die."
" I highly doubt who ever took Nadia and Enzo had white oak considering the only person who has the stake is 13 hours away dealing with Elijah."
Kol looks up at blonde on the stairs " I doubt Enzo's upstairs."
" I'm getting something of Nadia's and Enzo's for the locator spell."
Caroline grabs one of Nadia's shirts and one Enzo's shirts and goes back downstairs and gives it to Davina she chants in Latin the sand on the map moves to a shack outside the border.

Klaus is taken a back by Ansel's words he continues. "The only moments of peace have been when you were painting, or tending to your horses, climbing the Himalayas on your trek through the Andre's."
Klaus overwhelmed tells him to stop Ansel continues. " I watched you paint, I watched you with Caroline you formed a friendship with her then got her to trust you and every time she rejected you you got back up and tried harder you never gave up and now she is your girlfriend, I saw you feel your unborn daughters kick."
That was the last straw for Klaus you can talk about anything but don't talk about Caroline and Hope he grabs Ansel in a choke hold." I said stop after a millennium of watching me and yet you still want want to get to know me. Were your eyes closed when I slaughtered villages, fed on thousands of innocents, turned my friend back into a ripper just for fun, massacred the lot of hybrids I made then drowned the mayor in the fountain because let's face it I have a tendency of playing with my food. So have I made you proud father?"
Klaus shoves him walking away.

Caroline, Stefan, Katherine, and Kol are walking through the woods when the door to the shack opens they hide behind a pile of wood after the guys leave they open the shack's door and it's empty Kol's phone rings. " Their moving."
Kol puts the phone on speaker " Where are they going?"
" You have to hurry they're headed to the border."
Xxx
" Enzo?"
"Yes love."
Nadia tries to rub her head and her arms are chained. " What's going on where are we? And why does it have a overwhelming smell of bleach."
"I don't know but if I had to guess creepy man, creepy van that smells of bleach he's the man that Liz was telling Caroline about. If I'm right that means we are on our way to Mystic Falls to die."

Klaus and Ansel come to a tree surrounded by vervain. " Esther set a trap."
" I'll retrieve the merlock for you."
Klaus is waiting for the other shoe to drop with Ansel. " At what cost?"
Ansel getting frustrated throws his knife down into the ground. " Use your vampire skills see that I am not aligned with your mother."
" I have no interest of the inter workings of your mind."
Ansel never expected it would be this hard to connect with his son. " You stand here in fear of me while your brother suffers further."
" It's not fear you should know after watching me for a thousand years I don't trust easily."
" But you do trust some people."
Klaus looks suspicious at him " Once they have earned my trust but all you've done is tell stories now gather the orchids and I will consider trusting you."
That is good enough for Ansel.

They picked up Davina and headed to the border. The van stops in sight of the border and Davina comes up to the window. " Hi can you help us my boyfriends car just broke down and were a long way from home."
Trip looks at Davina and at Kol leaning up against Stefan's car there was no way he was risking his car to get smashed if this goes south. " Sorry I don't know anything about cars."
Davina looks back at Kol who nods. " Can you give us a ride to the nearest mechanic?"
" I'm in a hurry."
Davina shrugs her shoulders. Kol who has come up to the van breaks the window. Tripp realizing what Kol is and guessing Davina is one too starts driving, Davina raises her hands and flips the car it goes sliding across the border.
Davina goes to walk over the border to save Enzo and Nadia when Kol reaches out and touches her arm. " Kol I'm the only one who can save Enzo and Nadia you cross this border and you die I'm not going to let you or anyone I care about die."

" I must be hallucinating did I just hear Davina?"
Enzo is coughing up blood when he died as a human it was of consumption, Nadia is trying not to fade into unconsciousness she hung herself to turn.
" Enzo you had to know they would save us, Katherine and Caroline probably led the search to find us. When I came to Mystic Falls it was to find my mother I never expect to actually meet her, save her from death, actually make friends. I've never had friends my whole vampiric life and the last few years of my human life have been finding Katherine. I'm glad that you were one of my first friends."
Enzo is shocked by Nadia's confession. After he coughs up some more blood responds, "before Caroline the only friend I had was Damon and he left me to die in a cage that was in a room on fire. You found your mother and I found a true friend who will save me from death instead of leave me to burn."

Klaus and Ansel are sitting around a fire Klaus is watching Ansel cut the merlock with his knife." I always seen a blade used differently."
" Mikael taught you to kill but you were born to create the power lays in embracing your true nature."
That's the other shoe for Klaus having Ansel talk about Esther's proposal. " You think I should take my mothers offer sacrifice my vampirism then what live in the bayou, then once a month in my wolf form roll around in the dirt and not the fun roll around in the dirt, plus eating a squirrel to quench my thirst because eating humans is frowned upon in wolf circles."
" You wouldn't be sacrificing anything as a wolf you could be king of an entire species your girlfriend Caroline could be a queen."
Klaus is starting to warm up to his father just a little bit but his if he keeps bringing up Caroline and Hope that will change. " She is already a queen and I'm already a king."
" You could rule people that don't want to kill you and you would feel peace it would make you a better father."
Klaus face goes blank he's angry " I'm not a father anymore didn't the wolves hear my baby was killed."
He walks away from the fire but Ansel speaks up. " In our animal forms we feel everything differently." Klaus stops walking but doesn't turn around. " When you were a boy after every full moon I would wake up closer to your village being drawn to you in the night since I have been back I wake farther and farther from New Orleans it's the call of my blood."
Klaus is shocked and afraid turns back around to face Ansel but he is not done." I know your daughter is alive."

Kol lets go and Davina runs to the van she picks up a crow bar when she gets the dented in doors open she sees Enzo coughing up blood and Nadia is fading into unconscious.
Davina uses the crow bar to get both vampires free from the chains restricting them. She gets them out with a little difficulty but she is supporting both of them trying to keep Nadia awake.
She gets them over the border and falls into Kol's arms, Katherine runs to Nadia. " I lost you once I'm not going to lose you again."
" I love you mom."
Katherine has tears in her eyes as she hears that she never thought she would even meet her daughter let alone hear her says she loves her, and calls her mom. " I love you too Nadia."
Enzo had fallen into Caroline's arms. She brushes a piece of hair off his face " I'm so happy we found you guys. Let's go home."
He weakly nods.
Last night Stefan went to his family crypt to let out some frustration and Damon appeared in the crypt alive, so did Bonnie and a guy named Kai he blackmailed them into taking him back, they were in 1903.
Damon had found out Enzo had been taken and is friends with him plus he left Enzo to die once he's not going to do that again. He found the truck but it was already flipped. He saw Caroline with a bunch of other people and he could of sworn he saw Kol Mikaelson and Katherine Pierce.

Ansel hands the orchid to Klaus. " This will help Elijah."
He turns to leave and Klaus calls out to him. " Ansel I would be lying if your offer wasn't appealing but I won't put her through the pain of turning into a werewolf for my selfish desire to rule. I would of liked being your son but a different path was laid out for me and for a thousand years I have been son of Mikael, paranoid vengeful and powerful enough to protect my family."
Ansel clasps the back of Klaus head affectionately " I want to help protect her."
" I believe you but Esther twists love she will take your best intentions and use them to harm her. You waited to long to come and rescue me I won't make that mistake with Hope."
Klaus walked past Ansel and picked up his knife and walks back to him. Ansel has seen that look on his face from watching Klaus from the other side it's the face he has right before he daggers a sibling. " No I know you. You aren't capable of this."
Klaus doesn't want to do this but he has to save Hope from any and all danger even if the danger is not dangerous and wants to help. " That's the first lie you've told me."
Klaus gets ready to slice his father when a conversation he had with Caroline yesterday flashes into his mind. " I know you have a habit of killing your parents try not to kill Ansel it seems like he wants to get to know you."
"Fine if it will make you happy I will get to know the man who fathered me."
Klaus drops the knife and grabs Ansel's head and compels him. " Leave this town go far away forget me, forget your granddaughter, forget Esther, forget today. Just know your a werewolf."
Klaus vamps off right after leaving a confused Ansel in the woods.

They get Enzo and Nadia home and fed. "Feeling better?"
Enzo puts his second blood bag down. " Yeah why did you guys save me? I mean I get why Nadia was saved Katherine's not losing her again but why me?"
" Enzo your part of our family."
" I never had a family at the age of four I was sent to a workhouse, I convinced myself that an Italian line cook was my father, by fourteen I was on the streets, at twenty seven I was dead that is my life as a human I know nothing of relationships, love or family."
Caroline takes his hand in hers. " Enzo you are part of our family. Yes we might fight hell there's going to be a fight at Christmas when Katherine announces she's alive someone will probably end up with their neck snapped. There is also love for example look at Kol and Davina met in death and she resurrected him, or Katherine she loves Elijah and he loves her but he thinks she's dead, Klaus and I we are in a long distance relationship, Katherine and Nadia mother daughter found each other after five hundred years. Your not alone anymore Enzo you have all of us."

Klaus walks back into Elijah's room and smears the poultice of the orchid on his neck. " We were innocent once Elijah."
In Elijah's head a twelve year old Elijah is kneeling in the forest while an older Elijah with blood on his face stands in the shadows. " I need you brother by my side Hope needs her uncle we will fight our demons and reunite our family."
Young Elijah stakes older Elijah in the heart. Elijah gasps awake and it startles both brothers.
Xxx
Klaus walks back in Elijah's room he had stepped out to give Elijah some time to get clean and he wanted to call Caroline see how she was. Elijah sees Klaus in the mirror. " What is it?"
" Caroline says hi and looks like we weren't the only Mikaelsons to have an eventful day. Kol spent the day helping to rescue Enzo from a vampire hunter. Plus he's not coming home empty handed he took a pit stop in Mystic Falls and picked up his stuff and will be official living with Davina. What was Esther's bargain for you?"
Elijah is stunned all this has happened while he was under Esther's spell sits on the arm of a chair his tie hanging on around his neck untied. " She said that if I took her deal she would resurrect Katerina."
Klaus looks at his broken brother not only heartbroken because the love of his life is gone but mentally now thanks to their mother. " I know you and Katerina shared something that I can't even began to fathom but Katerina would have disappeared when the other side went down. I'm sure Katerina didn't go quietly and put up a fight and was the woman you loved and everyone tried to tolerate until the very end."
Elijah smiles he knows Katerina would of put up a fight against death. She never wanted to die, she shows the world that she is the baddest bitch of them all but inside she Is a seventeen year old who because he had grown feelings for her, he tried to protect her and told her to run that night in 1492.
"Esther did bring my real father Ansel alive to help convince me to give up my vampirism, I spent the day with him the thought that I could have been a completely different person if he raised me unnerves me. This was his."
Klaus hands him a leather notebook. On the first page is a sketch of Klaus as a child. " He knew about Hope I wanted to trust him but I would never forgive myself if anything happened to her I'm the only parent Hope has who is not only fighting for her but is also sane, so I compelled him to forget me, Hope, Esther, today, everything and to go far away."
Elijah walks over to his equally broken brother and puts a hand on his shoulder to comfort him.
