Elena, and the three Salvatores were standing in Elena's kitchen.
"It was their mother Esther who was sealed in that coffin."
"As in the Original Witch?"
"What? How is she even alive? Thought her hybrid freak show of a son ripped her heart out a thousand years ago."
"I don't know. I'm guessing she has a couple connections in the witching community. Elijah said that she wants to live in peace with her family, including Klaus."
"She was supposed to be the weapon to help us kill Klaus."
"Well, not anymore...at least not according to Elijah."
"That coffin was the only thing stopping Klaus from tearing us to shreds."
"Anyone else feeling a little used right now?" Rosalind grumbles.
"Look, Elijah promised me that his family wouldn't hurt any of us."
The doorbell rings.
"And I believe him."
Elena goes and opens the door. No one is there, but on the doormat is an envelope with an ornately-handwritten Elena Gilberton the front. She picks it up, closes the door, and turns around. Damon, Rosalind, and Stefan are in the lobby near her.
"What is it?"
Elena opens the envelope and removes a card.
"It's an invitation. Please join the Mikaelson Family, this evening at seven o'clock. For dancing, cocktails and celebration."
"Who the hell are the Mikaelsons?"
"The Original Family."
"It's not bad enough they're moving into town, now they want a housewarming gift?"
Elena turns the card over and sees there's writing on the back.
"Wait, there's a note on the back. Elena, I think it's time that we finally meet, Esther."
"If Esther wants to talk to me, maybe I should find out why."
"Well that's a dumb idea, she already tried to kill you once."
"No, Elena is right. Bonnie was led to open that coffin for a reason. I think there is more to this than just some family reunion." Rosalind nodded in agreement with Stefan.
"Can we go back in time where the old Stefan cared if Elena lived or died?"
