They were just on their way out of Richmond when Elijah got a call from someone named Rose-Marie telling him she had something to discuss with him.
He looked at Cassandra asking if he should go, she nodded looking tense.
"What was that about sweetheart?" Elijah asked after he hung op the phone.
She looked at him a moment, debating what to tell him.
"You are a good actor, right Daddy?" she asked.
"Yes sweetheart, when the occasion strikes, I am a very good actor"
"Then I guess I can tell you some of it. The woman who just called want to be forgiven for an earlier transgression" she started
"Yes, I surmised as much"
"Do not interrupt me Father this meeting will not be easy for me" she stated, with a slightly angry tone to her voice. Elijah looked at her for a moment, then motioned for her too continue.
"You remember Katerina Patrova" she looked at Elijah and saw his jaw tighten. "I can see you do, she was not the last of the Patrova doppelgängers, there is a new one Elena Gilbert, Rose-Marie has her and want you to pardon her and Trevor in exchange for the doppelgänger" Cassandra said, looking apprehensive.
"There must be more to it than that, for you to look so worried" Elijah stated.
"There is, two other vampires will come to rescue her and they have to temporarily kill you for everything to go as it should. And to be quite frank I do not like the thought of you getting hurt, especially not by people that I will have to be polite too" Cassandra looked very angry at the thought Elijah noted.
"Why do you have to be polite to them sweetheart?" Elijah asked curiously.
"Because we are going to need them later, I think, it is not quite clear, but better to be safe then sorry. Ohh and before I forget, remember to kill Trevor, that is important, otherwise Rose-Marie wont go seeking out those other vampires"
"I won't forget sweetheart, but are you sure it is safe to go with those vampires, I don't want you to get hurt" Elijah asked worried.
Cassandra turned and smiled at him, or as close to at him as she could, it pained Elijah how little sight she had left, how much of the world she would never see other than as pictures in her head.
"Ohh they will be hostile, but they wont hurt me" she reassured him.
They arrived at the house, as Elijah parked the car Cassandra suddenly said.
"Ohh Daddy go for a dramatic entry"
Elijah smiled at her childish behaviour.
"How dramatic sweetheart, shall we go in looking ready for battle or something more subtle?" Elijah asked.
She thought for a moment.
"Hmm that is a good question. Ohh I know first you bang on the door loudly and then push the door open so it opens slowly as Rose-Marie walks down the stairs, that will be nice and dramatic don't you think" Cassandra smiled up at him excitedly.
"Yes sweetheart, that does sound nice and dramatic" Elijah liked to indulge her small request's like these and Cassandra did have a nice sense of how to make an entrance.
They walked op too the house Elijah guiding Cassandra so she wouldn't fall and mess up her clothe, she had decided to dress for the occasion so she had a nice black dress on that stopped just above her knees, and some pretty black sandals.
Elijah banged on the door and waited till he heard Rose-Marie's footsteps before he pushed the door open.
"Rose-Marie is there somewhere we can talk" Elijah asked.
"Yes in here" Rose-Marie replied sounding very tense, indicating another room. "You have to forgive the house"
"Ohh what's a little dirt" Elijah said with smile "I completely understand"
"So what gives you the courage to call me" Elijah asked like he had no idea what it was about.
Cassandra couldn't help but giggle a little over how terrified she sounded. Rose-Marie decided to ignore the girl, she was after all only human.
"I wanted my freedom, I was tired of running you're in a position to grant it" Rose-Marie continued.
"Ohh I have complete authority to grant you that if I so see fit"
Cassandra decided to space out a little while they talked about Katerina and the other doppelgänger, she already knew all of this, all about how she survived. She started listening again when Elijah demanded to see the doppelgänger. Cassandra got a little angry when Rose-Marie started questioning Elijah's honour and had to bite her tongue to keep from verbally attacking the vampire.
Elijah turned to Cassandra.
"Do you want to come Sweetheart?" he asked.
"No thank you I will just wait for you here" Cassandra answered with a smile.
It didn't take long before Cassandra felt the presence of the two other vampires, she had to bite her lip to keep from yelling at them to leave her father alone.
She turned out her fathers speech about not being able to beat him. But she couldn't help but whimper at the sound of the bolts being fired into him or the vervain grenade going of and his scream of pain. This had better be worth it. Daddy's family had better be worth all this pain or she would personally stake all of them, she thought while tears ran down her face. She couldn't stop herself from stumbling out of the room just as they staked him to the wall, and then she started screaming.
"DADDY" she screamed again and again.
The three people started trying to get her to calm down, but she couldn't seem to function quite right at the moment, she tried to calm herself with the knowledge that he would be okay, but it really didn't seem to be working.
They seemed to be talking to themselves about something to do about her, something about her being human.
Finally one of the vampires tried to get her to calm down using compulsion, when that didn't work he knocked her out.
