Damon's POV
He couldn't believe it. Elena chose him!!! He would be human with Elena. They would have kids together if the vamp girl was telling the truth. He looked at everyone.Every single person in parlor was trying to process what was really happening. He looked at Elena. He could have swore that she was blushing secretly. His brother looked heartbroken. Blondie came to his side and started comforting him.He looked at Witch . She was probably hating the idea of them together. Klaus looked happy after a moment. A wicked grin covered his face. Tyler was looking back and forth at him and Elena and their daughter. Their daughter, he thought. He looked at her again now carefully. His daughter had his eyes . She had Elena's hair. Her name was so long for God's sake. But something else caught his attention. Her name was Stefanie. Just like Stefan. But why ? He didn't have the best relationship with him and he knew for sure that Stefan didn't like him . After all, he promised him an eternity of misery.
He broke the awkward silence ,' Well, are sure you are not lying ? Because I can kill you right now!' . Stefanie started laughing humorlessly.
' Well , now I know you weren't lying when you always told mom that she was light of your life. I always laughed about it and made fun of you. Now ,I am sorry dad. I honestly didn't knew you were ruthless before mom and you got together.'
Her eyes went soft when she looked at him. He couldn't comprehend it. He wanted to say something else but She started speaking. ' Well , now I told you who I am . There is something else important to do. Well, Mr Mikelson, My mom isn't the only doppelganger. Uncle Stefan is too. He is a doppelganger of Silas. I will tell you where they are but you will not bother mom and dad and anyone related to them. '
'Good for me . More hybrids.' Klaus smirked to himself.
Mostly people were trying to assess what was really happening in the room. Damon looked at Stefan in succession. He looked shocked.
'How do I have a doppelganger? I can understand Elena's . but why me?'.
She took a deep breath and started 'Well you need to sit down first. It is going to be a long story.' Everyone sat down. It took Stefanie two hours to explain about Silas and Amara. Their curse . Why Katherine and Elena always chose Stefan. They were conspired to come together.Even universe wanted them together he thought. She also explained about travellers and witch Faction's curse on them . ' So , it is the reason why it is always Uncle Broody. But it is just because doppelganger could be found together easily.'
Stefan shook his head. This was a lot to take.
' And later , Uncle Hero Hair fell in love with someone else who made him complete. I can say that because you are so broody.If there would be a club for most broody people, you would the president of thay club because you would be the only member. Sorry ,but for me right now, you are the creepy guy who hangs out with mom who is not dad.' She said exaggerating. Damon laughed at Stefan.
'You are definitely my daughter.But tell us now what happened in the future. I mean this doppelganger thing .'
She couldn't continue as they heard a girl asking for something. 'Daddey , please fix my tutu'.
'Wait , I am fixing it' .
He heard himself reply to a girl.Wait what!? Everyone jumped as Stefanie looked and said ,' Dad !? Ella!?.'
Her face looked like she had seen a ghost. He saw the older version of himself with a little girl , who looked around the age of five or six. His older version looked like he was in his early forties . He was on his knees. The girl looked a little version of Elena. Same brown eyes, olive skin and brown hair. She had a tutu obviously. The older version looked baffled . What could he say about himself? He was actually thrilled to hear his own heart beat. His older version had a few white in his raven haired head. He had few wrinkles but same blue eyes .He still looked attractive. Vampire Damon smirked. The little girl ran towards Elena and said , ' Momma! Daddy bought me pink tutu!' .
She nearly yelled and smiled at her ear to ear.VD couldn't explain what he felt when he saw that little girl smiling. It was so beautiful as if someone painted the sky his favorite color. He looked at Elena . Elena's eyes turned wet. She looked at Ella. Yes , she was definitely a young version of Elena, he thought.
' Ella, we will fix your tutu but go sleep now or I will take away your candy .' Stefanie said like the big old sister she obviously was .Ella hugged VD's legs. VD tensed at her touch as she said ,' Please don't take my candy'. She looked up to him , pouting . She was cute. She was perfection. He and Elena made her.Their own flesh . The thought of this made him jump inside. Wow. He relaxed and took her in his arms.
He looked her in the eyes and started to compel her ,' You are going to sleep peacefully . When you will wake up , Daddy will buy you lots of candies'.
She smiled brightly and kissed his cheeks. He could have blushed if he didn't control himself at time.
She touched his face with her tiny hands and whispered and looked serious, ' Don't tell momma.'
He laughed and whispered back equally, ' of course, baby . But go sleep now. Wait , I will take you.' He saw Elena smiling at both of them. He shook his head and vamp sped her to the room. He heard her saying, ' My daddy is The Flash. I will tell Sammy . He will be so jealous' She cheered and he started to laugh again and said,' Don't tell anyone. A hero needs keep his identity secret.' He put finger on his lips as if telling her to shush.He knew he wasn't the white knight but for her , he could try to be.
Ella nodded as if understanding. ' I will meet Uncle Jammie when I wake up. I feel like my eyes have rocks on them. ' She yawned .
Her eyes closed as soon as he put her down to his bed. She was asleep by now. He tucked her and looked at her.He kissed her forehead lightly and tutned off the lights. He would finally be human. He would have such beautiful daughters. Mention of his daughter, He went out in the parlor. Human Damon looked at him and punched him hard.
' How dare you compel her?Thank god Stef gives her vervain daily . Don't ever do that.' He said to his younger self as his massaged his fist
'I was trying to help'. VD shook his head and walked towards Elena and remembered something,' Who is Uncle Jammie ? she said about meeting him when he wakes up ' He looked at HD.
'Well , Uncle Jammie is Jeremy.'He looked at Jeremy who smiled back at him .'She is used to call him as Jerry before. Major improvement I can say.' HD replied proud of her .
He looked at Stefan and his eyes were soft. Stefan was confused by the look his older self gave him .HD started shaking his head
'Forget that Stef, How and why are we here? All I remember is trying to fix her tutu and suddenly a white light came for a moment. Here we were'. He walked towards her mad crossed his arms .Stefanie looked speechless herself amd looked at Hope.
' Well , Damon , we can ask you the same question too. But I think Hope is better equipped to answer the question as she is the one who wrote the spell' .
Well , HD and Ella weren't the only one here.
Hope's POV
Things were confusing . How did Ella and Damon came here? Look in everyone's face was priceless. Ms Bennet was looking at Ella and HD . Literally gaping. Her father's face was unreadable. Something she couldn't understand. VD was relieved when he heard the whole doppelganger story and why he isn't always the one. She felt bad for him . 145 years after loving someone and getting to know that they don't love you back is really hard while your brother always got the girl. She was happy for him. He had welcome her in his home so many times. They used to play pranks on MJ. Hope and MJ would dress up Ella like a princess.
Elena sometimes joined them for coffee and used tell them about interesting stories about her patients. How she found a watch in her patient's stomach who thought that his servant stole that or how she found a bulb in a patient's rear. Elena was surgeon practicing in Mystic Falls and had her own clinic. So , sometimes she would drop by in school to meet them. She never forgot to bring MJ's favorite doughnuts with her and Hope's favorite waffle and milkshake. She felt like a family with them. Because she used to miss her family. They used to remind her of her family oath. Always and Forever.
She had family besides her mom , dad and Elijah. Freya was there but she was pregnant and therefore couldn't travel. Her favorite uncle Kol used to visit her sometimes with Davina but they had kids too. They adopted twins girls whom parents died and they turned out to be werewolves. They were lovely but it had been a year she met them. Aunt Bex and Marcel were Japan travelling together. They were happily married since her dad died. She missed them all but no one could fill the void that was caused by the death of her parents especially her father. She never got time with him. Now, here he was.
But then she had explaining to do about who she was. When MJ was telling the story about Amara and Silas , she felt Klaus's eyes on her. Hayley looked at her differently too. As if in recognition. But they didn't know her. Though she was happy to see them alive in past, but it hurt her that she wasn't able to hug her mom and dad because they didn't knew her. After MJ explained everything, she saw Damon and Ella . She was reminded of the time when she used to paint with his dad as child. She sighed. What was more astonishing that VD reacted well to Ella the way HD did. How VD laughed and his whole demeanor changed around her. Hope thought about revealing herself. But she didn't need to . She saw her parents. Her dead parents.
'Dad!? Mom!? her eyes cracked open as much as it could. Hope ran towards Future Klaus.
'Yes , littlest wolf' .She hugged him as hard she could tear coming out of her eyes.
He hugged her back equally. Then she heard her mom. 'My little girl , it is so good to see you again .'
She turned towards her mom. Her mom hugged her hard .
'Missed me , little wolf?' FK asked grinned teasing her mom.
Hayley faked her annoyance.
'Not really' as she smiled at him. Hope felt relaxed.But not everyone around them was relaxed.
For starters, Mr Lockwood looked angry and looked at Hayley . He stood up and left.
Past Klaus was looking at himself .
Ms Caroline was shocked like Ms Bennett, Mr Gilbert and Sheriff.
He looked the same to him. Vampires couldn't age. He looked appalled. Hayley was looking at three of them. VD and Elena were gaping at them. HD took a bottle of bourbon from the table. He was starting to drink it.
'Dad! Not now'. MJ gestured him put down his Bourbon.
'Well, I know about it already. Plus it's great to see their reactions .It can be show called ' What face did you make when you saw your future' He said sitting down on the couch , relaxing. He starting drinking. '
Ms Bennett, Stefan , Mr Gilbert and Sheriff gave him a dirty look. He didn't care and sipped anyway. FK looked at Elena . He came towards her. Elena alerted when FK looked at her and uttered.
'Well , there is something I need to do'.
VD came to Elena's side. He held her hand protectively. 'What do you want now?' VD growled.
'I am sorry for killing Jenna. It is hard losing a mother figure .' He said genuinely.
Everyone was stumped including HD who was quietly drinking choked on it. 'What!?' . PK looked bewildered.He would never apologize to anyone let alone Elena. Hope looked at him and she smiled.
Elena asked him ,' Why are you apologizing now. Klaus. Because your past self can make more hybrids?' She said , venom laced in her voice.
Hope flinched .But She remembered her dad had done enough damage to them. She sighed.
Her dad replied, 'Ouch that hurt me love.'He said clutching his heart.She rolled her eyes at him.
'I know you won't believe me but When I was on the other side , I always looked after Hope . She wasn't in peace . She was always guarded and hurt because her parents died. But you were kind to her. You didn't let the fact affect you that her father killed your aunt and ruined your life. You looked after her and she was happy whenever she was with you all. Never a moment went by when I didn't regret whatever I did. I am really sorry , love. Thank you for looking after my daughter.'
Elena looked at FK for sometime and nodded silently accepting his apology.
' The infamous Niklaus Mikelson apologized. That is so unbelievable. Am I drunk?' HD asked confused.
'Well, I say the same thing for you , Damon . Fixing a girl's tutu. Never expected the Bad Salvatore to that. Thanks Salvatore for being a friend to her.' He smiled at him genuinely.
HD nodded and returned his smile. 'Well , they do change you. I have never felt this much love in my life. I never believed that I would love anyone more thay Elena. But I was wrong. ' He sighed happily.
Elena flinched at L word and looked at VD. Her dad sat down too and made himself a drink . Both clinked their glasses .
'To our beautiful daughters and their love for us' . Hope was happy . She met her dad again . But how she didn't quite understand. Future Hayley came to Elena and thanked her too.
Past Hayley asked her mom.
'Well , how do I have a daughter? I don't understand why with Klaus?.'
Her dad chuckled at PH. Her mom smiled at her past self kindly.
'Well , the guy isn't that bad. He is a good man.'
PK couldn't comprehend any of it. It obviously bothered him that he had to process all this information.
'Well , am I powerful in future or not ?'He asked.
Her dad replied, ' Well , Family is power. I had a loving daughter who brought a side of me that I didn't believe I had.To love someone other than me. I had a sister who never abandoned me even after I ruined her life .I had another sister who understood my pain after being assaulted by Mikeal.I had a neurotic brother who finally forgave me for daggering him for over a century.I was loved by a woman who deserved so much more and who will in my memory forever.I had a friend who saw good in me and was never afraid of me and was also the mother of my child. A brother who died by my side and gave me all the love that I didn't deserve , who believed I was redeemed .So , yes I was powerful in future.' As soon as he finished, He looked at his past self .
He was processing it and almost whispered, 'Elijah is dead ?' His eyes were wet. Her father nodded and then turned to PH .
'Speaking of death. Please don't sacrifice my hybrids. It is of no use.' He chuckled. PK looked up and sped towards Hayley and grasped her neck .
She started choking.'How dare you conspire against me? I will kill you.'
Hope panicked she had to do something before her dad killed her mom.But before she could do something, someone came from behind and grabbed him . He was pushed against the wall.
It was someone familiar who spoke, ' Why don't you pick someone your own size? ' Her dad stood up and smiled at newly arrived.
'Hello , love' as Future Caroline losened her grip on PK's throat and returned back his smile .
Well, who else was coming now? Hope wondered astonished.
Well , It took me two days to write this much. Next chapter is going to be much more exciting. Well , writing all this is hard but fun . It gives you si much power to change a story you hate and let people read what you feel about your favourite show. I have read some time travel stories related to it. But it didn't satisfy me.It always showed Delena . Steroline. or Klaroline. Don't get me wrong. It also focuses on them . but what about other love stories. Klaylope? Defan? .I believe that Damon and Stefan's love was far much better than Delena or Stelena. Hope and Klaus are like that. Pure love of daughter and Father. I wanted to give them peace. I hope to do that . Thank you so much for reading it. It makes my day when you guys reveiw it. It makes me do my best for you , so you can enjoy it . Thank you again.You can count on me to complete.
