I wake up in a garden with a house behind me

"Not exactly what I was expecting, but I guess beggars can't be choosers" I hear a very familiar voice say

"So, you like it?" Freya says "It's what I always dreamed of. A home away from the city. Just family"

I peak my head up "so some witch didn't go and try to kill me. It was you" I sigh.

they all jump around to where I'm sitting on the ground

"Right" Freya says "The spell brought all the family that wasn't Niklaus"

I blink up "I wonder what Olivia is going to think to me just passing the fuck out and now waking up" that's when I get off the ground "I think you all have some explaining to do"

Jump in time-5 years

I wake up in a damn warehouse with the rest of my family

I sigh looking at fishy eyes "Olivia dumped me with you didn't she"

"Yup" Hayley answers

great, stuck with the family again

were in the woods and have just fed on a bunch of prisoners

Kol is chasing his

"Good lord, that one has some lungs on him" Rebekah says "He should've been an opera singer. Might've ended better for him, actually"

"Very funny" I groan "So....when can I leave again"

Elijah gives me a look "We are family"

I roll my eyes

"Is this absolutely necessary" Freya sighs

"That depends" Rebekah snarks "Do you want us at our full strength, or do you plan on rescuing Nik on your own?"

"I vote we leave him" I grumble still laying on the ground

"These death rattles are distracting, and I'm trying to break a cloaking spell" Freya says joining the family thing to ignore me

"Kol, would you please?" Elijah finally says

the screaming finally stops

"Thank you" big brother continues "You were saying"

"I can sense. Klaus is still in New Orleans." Freya tells "most likely somewhere underground. I can't get a read on exactly where, unless I'm in the city itself"

Kol comes back

"yeah" fishy eyes says "That's gonna be a problem. I have contacts in New Orleans. As you can imagine, the place is crawling with vampires, all of whom hate all of us. Whatever we do, we need to do fast"

"Well, I wasn't planning on a pub crawl" Freya admits getting a chuckle out of me "I don't want to stay any longer than we have to. But we need to go"

"Whoa" Kol says "Wait...wait, we're not doing this today?"

"Of course we are" I huff "When it has to do with the mighty three it must be done right away"

"I have been away from my daughter long enough" fishy eyes says "If you're afraid..."

I finally stand to go leave

Elijah speeds in front of me "Where do you think you're going?"

"Away" I say slowly "Fishy eyes just said I could"

Kol snorts

"Marcel can kill you" Hayley smirks "Is that not what you want"

I give her a look holding up to hands "In one hand we have not being around you lot and in the other we have dying; which one do I want more" I lift the one that has me not being around them

"Enough" Elijah shouts "We free Niklaus today and then you may leave"

fucking Christ I hate this family so god damn much

no you don't

you can shut up

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I got put on the actual save Klaus ground while Kol got to be in the locater group

we're in this baby vampire Josh's loft listening to Rebekah and Elijah argue

"Wanna order pizza?" I whisper to Josh "We might be here for a while"

Josh smiles at me "Or we could just sneak out the back"

we start to move when they speed in front of us

"Freya found Nik" Rebekah says "You and I will go get him while Elijah handles Marcel"

then guess what Kol and I are on kill anyone who tries to follow them duty

Kol is all mopey looking at a picture of Davina and Cami

"Well here's to nobody dying today" Josh says and pours us drinks "Or was I premature? Tell me, what happens when Klaus gets out? What are you guys gonna do? Massacre this whole city"

"We just want to get our brother and leave" Kol admits "I, for one, hope i never see this filthy city again"

"I was with someone. This guy, Aiden. He died. Killed by your aunt, actually. And afterwards, I hated everything. And I mean everything. Even the sun. You know? It just kept coming up every morning, like it was any other day and the world hadn't completely changed. It's taken forever for me to feel normal again." Josh tells

"we all know about your afar with the dog." I sigh "Be fortunate that you do feel normal. My wife died nearly eight years ago now and I still miss her everyday" I grumble

Josh blinks at me "I thought you were sad because of your kid"

"That too" I shrug "Everyone I love dies"

Josh's phone rings and I check it then show to Kol

"Well, since we're such goof friends now, perhaps you could explain what "teutorburg" means" Kol exhales

"Um, look I'm really not part of all this" Josh tries

"Yes you are" I say "You're receiving messages that's holding me chance at leaving. So I would listen very carefully.....have you heard of the original ripper?" he nods "That would be me; if something happens to them I will burn this city to the ground. Now the word"

"It's a battle where the bad guys caught the good guys off guard" he gulps "Marcel is warning me that you're in town so that I can spread word to the rest of the guys"

"So you can keep us busy and Marcel can kill us" Kol comes together before snapping his neck "You're lucky Davina liked you"

"Alright" I huff "you go find Rebekah and I'll go down the dreaded tunnel"
