Klaus was sitting on the couch with his daughter. They draw together, that what they both have in common. Brooklyn sat beside them as Kol sat for them in a chair. Then Rebekah walked into the living room as Kol stood up and walked to her. "Well, well, well there's our girl." He said to her.
"Get out of my way, Kol." Rebekah hissed at him.
"Out all night. What a scandal. I trust you did better than that commoner." Kol said to her, grinning. "Matt, was it?"
"If you don't shut your mouth, the next thing to come out of it will be your teeth." Rebekah threatened to him, then Klaus smirked. "Don't start, Nik."
"Your niece." Brooklyn called.
"I didn't say anything." Klaus said to her as he continued to draw.
"I'm bored." Kol sat down into the chair. "Our sister is a strumpet, but at least she's having fun." He missed the glare that his sister and Brooklyn where giving him, Brooklyn because of her daughter. "I need entertainment."
"What are you waiting for? Go on. Have at it." Klaus said to Kol, motion to the door.
"It's no fun to go alone. Join me, Nik." Kol told him seriously. "It's the least you could do after sticking a dagger in my heart."
"Go on, Nik." Brooklyn said to her boyfriend. "Have some fun with your brother."
"Even you girl says it." Kol comment.
"Okay, why not?" Klaus said to him as he put his drawings away as then he stood up. "I didn't have nearly enough to drink last night, what with you trying to murder Rebekah's date." Then they started to leave.
"Yes, please go. This house has enough men rolling around in it." Rebekah comment, making Brooklyn laugh. Rose just ignored them as she was still drawing.
"Just like you, Bekah." Kol pointed at her.
Rebekah throws her shoes to him as he quickly leave to living room. Klaus was already gone there. "Good riddance, both of you." She shouted at them.
Then Elijah walked into the living room, with something in his hand. "Rebekah."
"Not you, too, Elijah." Rebekah comment, grumpy.
"I'm worried about mother." Elijah said to her as he ignored what she just said. "Have you not noticed her strange behavior?"
"She's been dead for a thousand years what's strange for her?" Rebekah asked to her brother.
"Burned sage." Elijah replied, showing her the sage. "She was doing a privacy spell."
"You know she fancy such things." Rebekah suggested. "Why don't you ask Finn? He's been doting on her."
"I don't trust Finn. He hates what we are. He always has." Elijah replied to her.
"That's not true." Rebekah was in denial. "And as for mother, she returned for one reason, to make her family whole. She loves us. What trouble are you looking to find?" Then she walked away from, she walked to her room to change her clothes.
Then Brooklyn thought back at the comment Esther had made to her as Elijah looked at her. Her concern was becoming true. Then Elijah looked at her, with concern. "Are you alright?"
"Yes, I'm alright, Elijah. Thank you for asking." Brooklyn replied to him. Then she had a text form her sister, saying that their brother was out of town. Brooklyn looked very angry at the text as then she quickly called her sister, she picked it up. "What do you mean our brother is out of town?" She demanded.
"It wasn't save for him anymore in the town." Elena replied to her over the phone.
"And you telling me this now?" Brooklyn said angry.
"Yes, I had him compelled to leave this town, because he didn't want to go." Elena told her the truth.
"Right is he and who compelled him?" Brooklyn asked.
"Damon." Elena replied simply.
"And where is he now?" Brooklyn asked to her, wanting to know where he was in the world.
"Not telling you." Elena signed as then she hang up the phone.
"Wow that bitch." Brooklyn said as she looked at her phone, then she realized what she said as she looked at her daughter, who didn't hear anything, because she was very busy with her drawing. Brooklyn signed happily that she didn't hear anything as then she looked at Elijah. "Sorry, you had to hear that."
"It's alright." Elijah said to her, he understands it, his brother did the same once.
"Thank you." Brooklyn nodded to him.
"You welcome." He said to her as then he leave the room.
Elijah had picked up Diana as he told her that he will be needing her help with Elena. She was as well the yesterday evening and he needed an extra pair ears to hear, well he have very good hearing himself, but he needed her with him. He didn't know what it was, all he know that he liked her company. Diana likes his company too. Then they arrived by the Gilberts house, they walked to the front door as Elijah knocked on the door as then Elena opened the door.
"Elena." Elijah said to her.
"Elijah." Elena said as then she noticed Diana. "Diana."
"We don't mean to intrude. I was hoping you might accompany us." Elijah told her. "I want to show you something." Not much later they all arrived to the place, where Elijah wants to be. "Forgot how much I missed this land." He said as he stepped out of his car. The others stepped out of the car as well.
"I'm sure it was." Diana comment.
"Can't even imagine what it must have been like a thousand years ago." Elena also comment.
"You know, your school was built over an Indian village. Where I saw my first werewolf. The town square was where the natives would gather to worship." Elijah pointed in the distance "Matter of fact, near that was a… there was a field where wild horses used to graze."
"That's incredible." Elena said to him.
"That's… just history." Diana comment, happily.
"Come." Elijah said to them as they walked further. Then not much later they arrived by big stones, that had tunnels below them.
"Do you know this place, too?" Elena asked to him.
"I do." Elijah replied to her, then spoke further about his time in Mystic Falls. "Below us is a cavern I used to play in as a boy, connects to a system of tunnels that stretch across the entire area." Then he kneeled down and grabbed come dead grass. "Perhaps it's nature's way of providing us with shelter against the savagery of the full moon. My mother said there must be a balance."
"Elijah, I should probably go home." Elena said as she was feeling uncomfortable.
"I admire you, Elena." Elijah stood up as then he looked at her. "You remind me of qualities I valued long before my mother turned us. It's not in your nature to be deceitful, and yet when I asked you about your meeting with my mother the other night, you lied to my face."
"That's not true." Elena lied to him. "I told you that all your mother wanted was a new start."
"I can hear your heartbeat." Elijah said to her very seriously. "It jumps when you're being dishonest with me. You lied to me at the ball and you're lying to me now. Tell me the truth."
"I never wanted this to happen." Elena said to him.
"What happened, Elena?" Diana asked as she looked concerned for the girl.
"We were told, that whatever was gonna be in that coffin was gonna kill Klaus." Elena began to explain. "When we found out that it was your mother. We didn't know what to think. Since her return, she said she only wants this family whole again. When she asked to see me, I... I thought that maybe she could help, that she would find a way to kill Klaus. It's not just Klaus that she wants to kill."
"She wants to kill us all, doesn't she?" Elijah asked to her.
"She wants to undo the evil she created. I'm so sorry, Elijah." Elena said as she felt sorry for him. "I wish there was something I could do to help."
"You know, one thing I've learned in my time on this earth." Elijah said to her. "Be careful what you wish for." Then he stumped with his foot to the ground as it was now a hole in there, he grabbed Elena and put her down there. Then he was quickly up again by Diana.
"So, where is our next stop?" Diana asked to him.
"We grab a drink, then we go to the Salvatore brothers." Elijah replied to her.
"Huh, way to please a girl, don't you." Diana comment sarcastically.
Elijah only smirked as they walked back to the car.
They had grabbed their drink as then they were now in the Salvatore boarding house. Elijah sat on the chair as Diana stood next to him. Elijah told Damon the things that's needs to be done as then Stefan walked into the house. "Can't find her anywhere." He exclaimed.
Then he sees Elijah sitting on the chair. Then Elijah greeted him. "Hello, Stefan."
"He has Elena." Damon said to Stefan, forgetting to say Diana.
"Actually she's with Rebekah." Elijah said to them. "As you can imagine, my sister's just dying to tear her throat out. So if you want to save Elena's life, I need you to help me stop my mother."
"I'm a little embarrassed to admit, but when it comes to killing thousand-year-old resurrected witches, I'm a little rusty." Damon said sarcastically. Then he looked at Diana. "Aren't you a witch?"
"Yes." Diana replied to him.
"Then why you are siding his side?" Damon asked as he pointed at Elijah.
"Why would you want to know?" Diana looked at him. "Elijah, please talk further, then they understand the plan."
"Yes, unfortunately even when killed, my mother doesn't seem to want to stay dead." Elijah told them. "Not with the spirits of nature at her side."
"So what are we supposed to do?" Stefan asked to him.
"The witches that released my mother, she's drawing her power from their bloodline." Elijah said to them. "That line needs to be broken."
"Broken?" Stefan asked confused.
"Yeah, he means…" Damon made a motion.
"You want us to kill them." Stefan now understands it.
"You know I'd do it myself, but I've absolutely no idea where they are. Besides, seeing me, they'd immediately know my intent." Elijah said as then he stood up and grabbed his jacket. "They won't expect to be harmed by the likes of you. In any case, you have until 6 minutes after 9:00 to find them."
"Oh, how super-specific of you." Damon comment.
"By 9:07, the moon will be full. My mother will have the power she needs to kill me and my family. If you do not stop her before then, Rebekah will kill Elena." Elijah told them. "So we all have our timeline. I suggest you get started." Then they went away from the Salvatore boarding house.
Elijah was driving as Diana sat next him, taking her to his home, well the Mikaelson mansion, where Brooklyn and her daughter were. When they arrived, Elijah looked at her. "I want you to protect Brooklyn and my niece, if that's fine by you."
"Of course, Elijah. Why would you ask that?" Diana took his hand. "Brooklyn is my best friend, so yeah, I will protect them."
"Thank you." Elijah said to her.
"You are welcome." Diana said to him. Then she teased, smiling. "But, when this all over we going to have a real date."
"If that's what you wish." Elijah looked at her.
"Hmm-mmm." Diana hummed. "Yes, when this all over, but for now. You need to go to you brothers and stop your mother."
"I shall do that." Elijah said to her.
"Hmm-mm." Diana looked at him. "Then I see you when this is all over." Then she stepped out of the car.
Elijah glanced at her as then he drove away. Then Diana walked to the Mikaelson mansion. She knocked as then the door opened, seeing Brooklyn standing there. "Hey, can I come in?"
"Of course come in, Diana." Brooklyn said to her smiling.
Then Diana stepped inside. "There something I need to tell you."
Brooklyn smile fated away as then she looked concerned. "What happened?"
Then later, Diana told Brooklyn everything that's been happening today. Since Rose was already asleep, it easier to talk about it. She told her that every original is linked and that Esther is been planning to kill them all. Brooklyn feared that her daughter was also linked, but Diana that wasn't the case. Diana could feel if Rose was also linked them, but that wasn't. Diana could well see if that Esther had done something to Brooklyn, her ring, it didn't work anymore as Diana looked at her. Her eyes were yellow. "Brooklyn maybe you should look at the mirror?"
"What, why?" Brooklyn asked worried.
"Look in the mirror." Diana only said.
Brooklyn did what was her told, she walked to a mirror that was hanging in the living room. Then she looked at herself, seeing that she had indeed yellow eyes. "What when did this happen?"
"Well, just a moment ago." Diana told her. "It means that the ring isn't working for some reason."
"Esther, she the one who did this." Brooklyn said as she was still looking at herself.
"I already had a suspicion." Diana told her as Brooklyn veins were now shown on her face. "I think it's time for you to go outside."
"I think that you are right." Brooklyn said as she turned to look at her friend. "Please watch over Rose."
"I will." Diana said. "Now go."
Brooklyn nodded as then she walked to the front door and opened the door as Brooklyn printed outside into the woods as then Diana closed the door behind her. Brooklyn transformed into a wolf as she runs throughout the woods. Then Brooklyn heard a male voice as she checked it out, then she hided in the bushes as she sees Finn, Esther, Bonnie and her mother.
"They're coming, mother." Finn said to his mother.
"No. It's too soon. The moon is not high enough." Esther told mother and daughter. Then they went inside the building. "Go quickly." Then Klaus, Elijah and Kol came forwards. "My sons, come forward."
"Stay beside me." Finn said to his mother.
Esther came into the circle. "It's ok." She said to him. "They can't enter."
"That's lovely. We are stuck out here while the favorite son plays sacrificial lamb." Kol snapped at Fin. "How pathetic you are, Finn."
"Be quiet, Kol." Esther told her to one of her sons. "Your brother knows virtue you cannot even imagine."
"Whatever you think of us, killing your own children would be an atrocity." Elijah comment seriously.
"My only regret is that I did no let you die a thousand years ago." Esther said to Elijah.
"Enough. All this talk is boring me." Klaus said to his mother. "End this now, mother, or I'll send you back to hell."
"For a thousand years, I've been forced to watch you, felt the pain of every victim, suffered while you shed blood. Even you, Elijah, with your claim to nobility you're no better." Esther explained. "All of you you're a curse on this earth stretched out over generations. If you've come to plead for your life, I'm sorry. You've wasted your time."
Then a howl came from behind the bushes as Brooklyn let herself see to them. Klaus looked at her. "Brooklyn." He whispered, knowing that the others could hear him as then he turned to look at his mother. "What did you do to her?" He demanded.
"Letting her know how powerful I am." Esther replied to him.
Brooklyn howled again as then something happened with Esther her son. "No. Sisters, do not abandon me!" Esther cried as the flames burned higher.
"Mother!" Finn shouted as he pulled Esther by him.
The flames burned higher and higher until it just stopped as the boys walked into the circle finding Esther and Finn gone, they all looked confused of what happened and glad what didn't happened. Brooklyn howled happy that they were gone.
Then they were back at the Mikaelson mansion. Klaus was in the living room, Kol fled, Elijah was looking for Rebekah as then he found her and talked to her. Brooklyn was also in the house as she was asleep on her and Klaus's bed. Rose was still asleep as well and Diana was in the kitchen as then Elijah came to her. "Esther is and Finn got away."
Diana jumped a little as then she turned to look at him. "Well, that's good isn't it?" She asked to him. "So that means what she was planning didn't work?"
Elijah nodded to her. "Yes and I am leaving this place and I want you to come with me."
"Why?" Diana looked confused.
"I don't want you for you live standing in Brooklyn shadow." Elijah replied to her, with so far as he had seen of her and Brooklyn.
"Brooklyn is my best friend and I love her to bits." Diana said to him. "I don't know if I could leave."
"Please, think about it, I'm leaving in the morning earlier." Elijah said to her as then he walked out of the kitchen leaving her standing there to think about it.
