When Bonnie walked into the living room of the boarding house she looked around the room and realized that she was missing the four people that she actually requested and she set her gaze on Damon who told her that they were on their way. To which she nodded before tossing her bag on the floor in front of one of the empty arm chairs as she exited the room. Deciding to help herself to a blood bag from the basement. She rifled through their collection and grabbed one mark A negative and took a long sip. Turning on her heel to make her way back upstairs as soon as she heard the front door of the boarding house open. Fighting back a smile as she entered the room pointedly ignoring the Original's presence as she casually draped herself across the empty armchair by her bag.

"You're supposed to be dead." Klaus stated after getting over his shock, noticing that his siblings haven't quite gotten over their own.

"Yeah, well so are you." Bonnie shrugged and drained the remainder of the blood bag as she glanced at his siblings who appeared to be just as taken back as Klaus before recovering, giving her blank stares or narrowed eyes in Rebekah's case.

"How?" Klaus asked standing to his full height when she returned her gaze to him.

"I'm not an idiot. You put me against Elena, anyone with a brain knows how that would turn out. Now if you had the mind of a true villain you would have bit either Damon or Stefan, filled a vial with your blood, sent one of your siblings to fetch the other and gave the option of saving his brother or saving Elena from being drained of every last drop of her blood. Whilst under the ticking clock of finding a way to save your family. That way one of the assholes would have to live with the guilt of saving a girl with eighty years max considering she does not want to become a vampire over his immortal brother. Or the eternal heartbreak of saving his brother over the girl they both loved―possibly both considering their competency without assistance, particularly mine as of late―causing an eternity of resentment because when the Salvatores love someone they love hard. They would never get over the loss of the other or the loss of a Petrova. You and Elijah of all people should have known that. But no, you put a Petrova up against the resident witch. I expected more from you Klaus." Bonnie simpered knowing that it would rile him up, though she can't help but smile at the reactions she received from Klaus' siblings at their brother's response.

"Well technically that was Elijah." Klaus defended himself, ignoring Kol's chuckle and Elijah's audible scoff.

"And you went along with it. For someone who has people shaking in their boots at the mere mention of their name you aren't all that cutthroat."

"You've turned it off." Rebekah finally broke her silence after taking in the reactions from the others who just look as if they're hoping Bonnie doesn't go overboard and get them all killed.

"Well duh." Bonnie looked at Rebekah, smiling when the blonde suddenly appears in front of her.

"You despise Elena and you didn't even lay a finger on her but you seriously expect me to be afraid of you?" Bonnie raised an eyebrow. "If you couldn't raise your hand to someone that you hate, why should I believe that you would go up against me?"

"Because without your powers you're of no use to us." Rebekah smiled.

Bonnie rolled her eyes. "Someone hasn't been paying attention. I was never of any use to you. The fact that you're still alive is proof enough." Bonnie headbutted Rebekah, jumping up from her seat taking advantage of the original's dazed state to snap her neck and sent her corpse flying into Kol.

"We all know nothing was going to be accomplished if she were still conscious so I can either snap everyone's neck until it's just you, me and Elijah or you can have the other one and your little workers stand down." Bonnie held Klaus eyes as she hooked her thumb towards Kol, knowing his hybrids are surrounding the boarding house.

While normally Klaus would have ripped her heart out before a word could be said, he's stunned that she was able to even take his sister down and have the audacity to threaten his brother but when he looks into her eyes he sees a coldness that he hasn't seen since his encounters with Mikael and he can only turn to Elijah who's looking at her in the same kind while Kol is just recovering and just about to make his way over to the former witch when she cocked her head at him, a silent warning to get Kol to stand down.

"Kol." Klaus called hs younger brother, still holding Bonnie's stare, deciding to entertain her. Newly turned vampires were always cocky and seemed to think that they were invincible even to those who are their elders. And it's clear―though disappointing―that Bonnie is not the exception to the rule.

Bonnie watched as Elijah flashes over to his brother and brings Kol to stand between himself and Klaus.

"What have you done?" Kol asked after a moment, noticing something different about her from the others that he and his siblings have sired. Like his brother he chalked Bonnie's boldness to her being a newly turned vampire but as he looks at her he sees that she is truly unafraid. If she were still a witch he would understand taking her legacy into consideration. So that led to her being able to do things others couldn't begin to fathom. Sure Bonnie hadn't been the most seasoned witch, but from what he had heard she was known to rise above and beyond the occasion. Aside from her choice of company it was clear that she was brighter than most. So he was sure that she would be just as quiet and mindful of her tongue as anyone else that had crossed his path. Unless she had managed to pull off one last trick.

"He's the one with the thing for witches, right?" Bonnie looked at Klaus taking his grin as the answer to her question. "It's a shame we didn't get to meet sooner." She remarked with a slight smile as she returned her attention to Kol. "From the things I heard about you, you would have had a lot of fun trying to…" She let her eyes drop to his crotch. "break me." She met his eyes again, returning the smile he gave her. "But to answer your question, it's like I said, I'm not an idiot. When it comes to saving Elena," She pointed at the brunette. "the Salvatores will always find a way. So when I got the feeling," She made a point of holding Kol's eyes knowing that he's the only one that knows about the pulsing in the heel of your feet every witch gets before their death when it's not preventable. Having been the only one that triggered their witch gene aside from Finn. "I took Elena's blood and dot dot dot." Bonnie revealed looking at three brothers watching as realization dawns on them. Fighting back her smile at the reactions from Caroline and Matt. Who finally understood why she was able to take Stefan and have Damon of all people stand down.

"That's not possible." Klaus shook his head refusing to believe her claims, but he can't continue to deny it when he hears the next stream of words that pass her lips.

"For a witch to come up with her own take on an Immortal?" Bonnie questioned. "Funny how fast you forget who your mother went to in the first place. Am I exactly like you? No. I wouldn't give myself the same weakness as you and reveal that we're in the same league." Bonnie grinned looking at him.

"Your ring says otherwise." Elijah remarked, brown eyes fixed the daylight ring on her middle finger.

"My ring says that I called upon the sun for eternal life." Bonnie slighted him with a look.

"What is it that you want, Bonnie?" Klaus asked regaining her attention.

"What I want, you can't give me. But I have something that you might want to consider." She waited until she sees that she has everyone's attention. "Downstairs is a crate of blood bags full of Elena's blood. Way more than enough for you to make your army that you so desperately desire. But there are two conditions that come with this."

"Which are…" Klaus motioned for Bonnie to continue, having decided to play along.

"I want you to leave us alone. I've managed to get Elena and the wonder twins" Bonnie looks at the two brothers, giving them a look that makes it clear that she wants them to stay quiet. "to agree to deliver the same amount every five years." She holds up her hand as she stresses the number. "Let the girl have a normal life. This way you get what you want. She gets what she wants. And then in another five hundred or so years you'll have a whole new group of children to terrorize."

"And what do you get from this?" Klaus grinned, the only outward reaction to her barb.

Bonnie opened her mouth but was cut off by Elijah.

"The second condition."

Bonnie smiled and glanced at Elijah. "Nothing gets past you, does it Elijah? Did you know that you were Emily's favorite?" She raised an eyebrow when he averted his gaze, clearing his throat.

"The second condition, Miss Bennett."

"I'm going to need your daggers."

"No." Klaus denied with no hesitation, ignoring the glares he received from his brothers.

"That's too bad." Bonnie smiled. "I kind of already had your most trusted hybrid hand them over. Along with the remaining white oak ash." She reveals not caring about his reaction to the news. Unable to stop herself from rolling her eyes when she's suddenly against the wall with Klaus hand wrapped around her throat. And gives Tyler a look when she sees him stand up wanting him to know that she has this though she appreciates his want to protect her. Surprising herself as well as the others as they all watched as Klaus hurtled across the room into the wall after she managed to pry his hand from around her throat lifting her feet to the hybrid's chest pushing him off with all of her strength. All eyes going back to Bonnie to see her eyes locked on Elijah's. All frowning when the now eldest of the Mikaelsons nodded his head.

Bonnie smiled at Kol and Elijah they restrainined Klaus as he demanded that she told him where his daggers are. "We both know that's not how this works. Besides you won't be needing them anytime soon."

"And why tell me this?"

"Because of what's happening right now." Bonnie smiled. "Rebekah came too five minutes ago...wayy more than enough time to make a move on me yet she didn't, and Elijah and Kol are holding you back because I insured their eternal freedom. And while normally the Salvatores would have tried to step in because I essentially set off the ticking time bomb that is you, said nothing because even they know this was pretty damn good. You have to give credit when it's due Klaus. Or you can be predictable and throw your tantrum, go into your fit of rage and kill them all." Bonnie shrugged.

When Kol and Elijah released their brother from their holds and Rebekah rose to her feet glaring at Bonnie all the while who raised her hands in mock surrender before returning her eyes to Klaus waiting for his next move. Watching as he flashes right up to her and the next thing she knew she was outside with Klaus' hand wrapped around her throat as he slowly moved her backwards until her feet were no longer on a flat surface. She broke his stare to look down and saw that they were on the bluffs and she relaxed despite knowing what was to come next.

Klaus expected to see fear in her eyes or at least for her to at least make an attempt to take him with her but instead he sees nothing. She merely looks at him as if she were waiting for him to do it already. "You really feel as though you have nothing to lose. That's the only thing that can push you to do something so ignorant. Did you really think that my siblings would leave my side because you took away my daggers?" He grinned but fell when Bonnie smiled. He waited for her to explain but ends up chuckling, genuinely amused when she pointed to his hand. He debated between just dropping her or actually letting her speak. After two minutes he loosened his grip just to see her reaction but gotten nothing. He would be impressed if her actions didn't send worry creeping into his veins. Pivoting on his heel, he released her from his vice, and let her drop to the ground. Eyes trained on the former witch as she stood up and rolled her head around. The move was grating, as it seemed that his attempt at intimidation had just been that. An attempt that appeared to be nothing more than a minor inconvenience to her.

"What have you done?" He snarled when she minutes passed and she's said nothing. An odd sense of dread washed over him and only intensified when she jutted her chin towards his cell phone when it started to ring. Expecting her to run he keeps his eyes on her as he reached for the device. Holding her ground under his scrutiny as he raised his phone to his ear he can only hold her stare as she no doubt listened to what's said from the other end of the line.

Anticipating his lashing out, Bonnie swiftly dodged his blow and twisted his right arm behind his back. Taking advantage of her position and sinks her fangs into his neck, her eyes wide when he cried out. And all she could think was that he screamed like a girl. When she felt him go limp she retracted her fangs and pushed him forward, walking around him as he landed on his knees and kneeled down examining his wound. Grimacing at the sight of her handiwork before driving a stake through his chest, angling it so it grazed his heart. She sighed when he fell over, a weak groan escaping his lips and throws him over her shoulder speeding them back to the boarding house. Carelessly dropped him down to the floor where his siblings lied, side by side with daggers in their hearts along with several dead hybrids. She couldn't help the twinge she felt when she sees the five hearts on the ground, making it clear that they didn't go down without a fight. And despite all efforts not to, her eyes went to Tyler to find him staring back at her rightfully pissed at what happened in her and Klaus' absence.

But she couldn't deal with that right now.

And Klaus served as the perfect distraction. As one glance at the hybrid showed that he was already healing and she sped over to the fireplace pulling out a small vial of ash dipping a gold dagger into it before flashing over to Klaus forcing it through his heart. Making a point of holding his eyes as they fluttered shut once he began to dessicate. Letting out a breath she didn't know she was holding when her eyes fell to her hands, having expected them to do the same only to see them maintain their usual color. And she was not quite sure how she felt. Torn between feeling a sense of pride that she actually covered all of her bases but also ashamed. Knowing that her chance of being reunited with her Grams was gone. Not that they would have taken her in with all that she'd done before her death. It didn't make it better that the Spirits weren't all on the same page about this. Sure she got rid of the Originals―as much as she could without commitiing mass murder that they were apparently all for―but in doing so she had become one of the things that should have never been in the first place.

Then a wave of uneasiness washes over her. This was just a little too easy. Sure she made herself a variation of what the Mikaelsons were but in reality there was no way in hell that she should have been able to take them down. There had to be some kind of catch and she wondered what it was.

"Bonnie?"

Despite hearing Damon call her name she didn't look at him. Instead she directed her attention to placing the Originals into the newly arrived caskets via Adrian, Chris, Kimberly and Neveen. The hybrids that she had seen Tyler talk to regularly. While she knew that he would not be okay with losing any of them she had hoped that the fact that she had spared them would lessen the blow. Yet doesn't look to her childhood friend for confirmation as she couldn't deal with the disappointment.

She makes her rounds to each coffin, pressing each dagger further into their chest as a safety measure. A simple nod of her head indicating that she's done and watched as each hybrid from the post closed the lid.

"Don't touch them." She said so everyone in the room could hear, making a special point of looking at Elena and sped away once the brunette nodded her agreement.


Damon sighed, taking a long drink from his glass as he stared at the fireplace. Bonnie's actions from yesterday on a loop in his mind. Her plan was good but it was a little too good.

A little too easy.

Based on the way she looked afterwards he could tell that she thought the same. So it didn't surprise him when she abruptly took off afterwards.

He glanced over to where the Mikaelson's coffins were just a few hours ago and let out a long breath remembering the look on the former witch's face as she watched an apparent friend of her's perform the spell that Bonnie guided her through that was to lock them inside. Then doing the same to seal the room he used to hold Stefan when his brother had his humanity off to keep their coffins inside. Afterwards she had Matt sign the deed to the boarding house as an incentive to keep him alive.

Again, Damon had to give her props but now she was gone and hadn't even bothered with a goodbye. He ran around asking everyone, especially hounding the Quarterback but he got nothing. He knew he didn't deserve one and couldn't blame her for leaving. Afterall she had told them that once the Mikaelsons were done, so was she. But it still would have been nice to at least see her off. He never thought he'd see the day that Bonnie Bennett would be the one to send him taking a page out of his brother's book. Damon didn't even want to think about what his forehead would look like.

He's so wrapped up in his thoughts, he doesn't notice he's no longer alone until he hears her voice.

"She came to visit me." Elena said walking into the living room.

The corner of his lips quirked upward despite the furrow of his brows. Of course Bonnie would visit her. Through all a vampire with no humanity talk. They all had a soft spot when it came to those they once had a bond with.

"She told me to tell you that she'll be in touch." Elena continued even though she saw no reaction from him. Though she's sure it's because his back is turned to her. "I'm not sure what's going on with her but it's obvious that she's still there. So whatever it was that may have been going on...she obviously still cares about us." Elena added knowing that Bonnie spent time with Damon during her time at the boarding house, and from what she's heard...she's the only one that got a visit before Bonnie took off.

Without another word Elena turned on her heel and left the boarding house. Taking one final look at the exterior, her eyes lingering on Stefan's room and has to curl her hand around the door of her truck to keep herself in place when she sees his silhouette stroll past the closed curtains. "Goodbye," She breathed out knowing that at least one would hear her and climbed behind the wheel of her car. Peeling out onto the road and leaving nothing but dust in her wake.


Five years later

Bonnie calmly flipped through the stack of mail that was set on the table beside her as she rested on the chair beside her pool. An eyebrow raising when she came across a letter with lace surrounding the border as her eyes scanned the names in cursive, a smile pulling at her lips when she reads the message on the back

I already RSVP'd you. You're coming. Even if I have to fly out there and drag your ass here kicking and screaming.

Her smile turned into a grin at what she knew was a promise and looked at the date again committing it to memory before setting everything back onto the table. Making a mental note of going shopping.


I know it's a crazy time jump but I plan to do flashbacks, however if that's not your cup of tea, thank you for reading this far.
