Special Note.
Dear readers. So from here on forget about everything that happened in the show because from this chapter the plot will go as I planned. If any of you haven't seen originals then its all right because I am recreating that storyline to fit this story. So here you go, enjoy the two most crazy road trip ever.
Bonnie's P.O.V
Bonnie has been driving for hours before stopping at the motel. For the next few hours, she laid beside Hope who was crying non-stop.
Poor girl has been through so much that it makes sense she was inconsolable.
It took her a while but finally, she managed to make her fall asleep.
Even in her sleep, she was restless as she kept mumbling, "Don't fight." over and over again.
Finally, she felt deep in sleep which makes Bonnie sigh in relief. She then starts reading her letter, in this letter she got to address and map of Dowager Fauline Cottage which is located deep in New Orleans a few miles away from French Quarters.
Her letter also has instruction for a spell that apparently has been placed all around the cottage so no witch can come out once she was trapped inside.
"You need to lift spell first and then cast a sleeping spell before you went inside, otherwise a lot of crazy witches will also be freed. Once you find my past version ( which is sleeping inside the coffin in the locked room of that cottage) get my body out and then re-sealed that place once again."
The instructions were clearly written by Freya who then wrote another spell to wake her from hibernation.
"I was not supposed to wake up for another year. Hibernation is tricky and powerful magic and that's why you will need Hope's help for this spell."
The instructions were in ancient Vikings text but Freya was kind enough to translate it in Latin so she could understand it.
Bonnie thoroughly read each instruction over and over again and before she knew it the sun was rising through her window.
"Wake up Hope." She gently wakes up the little child once it was time for them to continue their journey.
"A few minutes more Pappie." She groaned sleepily before falling asleep again.
"Hope wakes up, its Bonnie." She then remembers what she called her earlier and even it felt weird she says. "I mean your Grams sweetheart."
She watched as she slowly opens her eyes and for the second stare around her surrounding before her eyes stopped at her face. "Last night really happened?" She asks as her voice cracked up a little.
"Yes, you found me although most of that night is still confusing to me." Which is true because she has so many questions and only this child can give her all those answers.
"But all that stuff can wait because you need to get dress and then we will get some yummy breakfast." She gave the pancakes that she ordered from the kitchen and tried to be excited but this little girl did not seem to share her enthusiasm as she sighs. "They remind me of Pappie's pancakes."
She sniffed and pushed her plate away. "I am not hungry, let's just find my aunt and brother so we can get out of this time."
"You really don't like it here?" Bonnie ask and saw Hope scowling at the window. "They didn't warn me that my Dad and Pappie used to hate each other! I understand there was no time as we were running but still."
She paused as she glare at her pendant. "Even my Nona was attacking my aunt! I just hate that they all used to hate each other." She began crying but something she said clicked in Bonnie's memory.
"Didn't you refer Elena as your Nona? You know when Stefan asked how you can tell the difference between Elena and Katherine?"
Hope's eyes grew wide before she dejectedly nods her head.
'That makes sense why my future husband said that we are friends with her grandparents.' She thought to herself before continuing their conversation.
"That means Stefan is your grandfather because you called him papa Stefan. Its nice Elena marries him in future..." She stopped when Hope makes a disgusting sound. "Why would you even think about that?! Papa Stefan and Nona! Yuck!"
Feeling shocked by her reaction, Bonnie couldn't help but stammered as she tried to ask. "What do you mean? If Stefan is not your grandfather then who?"
And then her eyes fell on her pendant crest and suddenly Caroline words rang in her mind. "Damon? Damon Salvatore is your grandfather?!"
This time Hope replied in her sad voice. "Yes, he is my grandfather, my Pappie who for some reason was trying to kill my Dad."
Of all things she said this one thing makes no sense and yet it makes perfect sense as she remembers last night in a new light. "You called his brother's your uncles? So that meant?!" Her voice flatters in disbelief as she answered herself. "Klaus! Klaus is your father!"
She didn't watch Hope nod her head this time because Bonnie was busy rubbing her forehead as she felt her head ready to burst at any moment.

( Meanwhile back in Mystic Falls Few Hours earlier.)
"Okay listen up everyone!" Damon called out to the gang who were standing in front of him inside the Boarding House. He then looked at Liz as he instructed. "Liz I need you to track down anything on Bonnie Bennett and I also want Jeremy, Donovan and Elena stay here with you in case Bonnie and Hope came back."
"No! you are not leaving me behind!" Elena yelled angrily at him.
"Watch me! Do you have any idea what kind of danger held in French Quarters of New Orleans? It is pure vampire cult territory, a place where after midnight its tourist buffet for their residential vampires. If you don't trust me to ask Stefan."
Before she can say anything Stefan intervene. "Damon is right, even we in our darkest times never ventured inside that place because once any vampire enters that place, they never left that place alive."
This time she gasped in horror and Damon was glad to see that she can understand the danger. "I can't protect Hope if I am worried about your safety." He wiped her tears as he once again refuses her. "I am sorry but you are staying here, you can stay with Liz or Donavon since they haven't invited any vampire in their house."
He waited and when she nodded her head he relaxed and then continue.
"Ric, Caroline and Stefan will join me on this trip."
"Why not Tyler?" Caroline asks before he could say anything else. " He is Hybrid and he could help us too."
Damon was about to give her reason when a voice beat him to it. "Because he will be staying here as my eyes and ears if your witch ever turned up."
Klaus smile at them and then continue explaining his own plan. "Also half my hybrid will be guarding this town while you people assist us on this Quest."
Elena has to held Damon back as he growls at him. "Assist! This Quest is mine and so is my plan! that you just rudely interrupt!"
But Klaus just smiled in amusement as he asks. "So your plan was to take a mediocre part-time human hunter, a baby vampire and your crazy ripper brother as you embark on this heroic journey?"
They all stare between these two men and as Damon fume in silence, it was confirmed that even he didn't think about his plan through every aspect. But Damon was not going to admit anything to this pompous ass.
"Okay high and mighty original! tell me about your plan." Damon asks with enough malice in his voice.
"Well as I was saying before, half of my hybrids are staying to guard. The other half will be joining us." He finished as if it was that simple.
"Us? And exactly who is this us?" Stefan asks and in answer door burst open as rest of his siblings join them.
"Us as in all of us." Rebekah answer as she stood besides Klaus.
"I don't know what to make out of that child but I and our entire family own her our lives and that's why we will help you in your search," Elijah explained as they all stand together in one room for one mission.
Elena never thought she will see this day but something change in Damon face as he warned them. "I don't care how dangerous it's going to be or what kind of reunion is waiting for your family but if anything happens to my granddaughter because of you people then I swear to God or whatever high power there is, I won't waste my time hunting you down! Because I will find you and then painfully stab you with this over and over again until you beg me to kill you." He then shows them a white oak stake and felt satisfied as he watched the stricken look on their faces.
"Now let's go? I don't want to waste any more time." Damon didn't give anyone a chance to reply as he kissed Elena on the forehead and head outside towards his car.
He, however, stopped when Klaus zoomed passed him and open the passenger side of his car. "I am riding with you so you won't play any tricks."
"And why do you care if I pulled any tricks?" Damon asks feeling fed up with Klaus interference.
"Because that child claim to be my daughter! And if her drawings are real then my son has been alive after all this time and I don't know how I will deal with both these truths."
And as they stare at each other Damon reluctantly agreed to be his travelling companion because no matter how awful this journey is going to be, their destination is the same.
