After 5 hours of arguing, 4 wishes burning in a bonfire, 3 bottles of bourbon, 2 broken necks and a ridiculous plan to stop mummy dearest Niklaus FINALLY agreed to my idea, protect our little girl our self.

Once we had decided on a plan Bex and Niklaus set of to New Orleans while Elijah and I stay to discus what to do about Hope .

"She's asleep" I breathe out walking towards Elijah, "It's so quite with Bex and Nik gone. Look Eli-"

"God I despise that nickname" Elijah tells me with a hint of humour as he look up at me with a small smirk/smile 

I let out a airy laugh smiling back, "I have a plan" I tell him, "to keep Hope safe, but you, all of you probably wont like it"

"Do tell" 

"We go to Beacon Hills, that's where we can protect Hope. It won't just be us protecting her though, it would be a whole pack. The Hale/ McCall pack. They don't trust me right now because they don't know what's going on, they don't know what happened, why I changed, how I changed but... If I tell them. About what's happening, about you guys, about me, about Hope... they will stop at nothing to protect her" I say trying to convince Elijah of my plan

Elijah looks at me deciding what to say next, "Do you trust them?"

"I do" I say honestly

"Then what are we waiting for? Lets go to Beacon Hills"

After a 7 hour car trip we finally rolled into Beacon  Hills, the second we crossed to Beacon Hills border I received a phone call


"Vanessa, I kinda need your help" I hear Derek plead

"Derek, lets face it, your hopeless and you've always needed me, so what do you need me to do now?" I sigh 

"Just come to my place and you'll see for yourself" he demands

I scoff "I didn't hear a please then, did you Eli?"

Elijah looks over to me with an amused look on his face, "No, I believe he was quite rude"

"Venessa, please. And who is Eli?" Derek questions with an accusing tone

"I guess you'll find out when I get there" I tell him as I hang up



//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////



"Do you really think this is a good idea?" Elijah questions as we climb up the 100 and 1 stairs 

I continue to walk up the stairs with Hope in my arms as Elijah trails behind, "Elijah, what happen to you trusting me to do this my way?"

There it was, the big heavy iron door that stands towering over me, the place that landed me in all this mess to begin with. I reach out my hand curling it around the rusted handle as I brace myself for what happens next, show Derek the truth that I've kept hidden for so many months

I take a deep breath and let it all out as I open the sliding door with ease, the door still sending out a loud ear piercing creek from it's hinges

What laid behind it was not what I expected, "Derek tell me what the hell is going on right now!"

Derek scoffs "Ok mom" as he turns around shocked at what he sees, "You bring a baby wasn't what I was expecting"

"Well guess what, Peter laying on the floor with an axe sticking out of his chest wasn't was I was expecting either yet here we are" I shout covering Hopes eyes

"Oh god" I say running my hand down my face, "Elijah hold Hope" I tell the man handing him my baby

Derek and I grab Peter dragging him to Derek's desk, once seated I yanked the tomahawk out of his chest as Derek walks away

Peter laughs painfully with a vicious smile, "You always liked seeing me in pain, didn't you?"

"Oh shut up, Peter enough with the self pity, I fucked up. It's been over a year, get over it" I scoff

"The axe was laced with wolfsbane" Derek announces walking back over with a lighter, "I don't know the species so I'm going to have to burn it out"

"Elijah cover her eyes please" I tell the original who was distracting Hope 

Elijah nodded as he cover my baby's eyes staring at the seen in front with a disapproving look written on his face

"I think I can handle a little fire" Peter smirks as he looks at the small flame

I let out a laugh, smirking as Derek swaps his flame causing Peter to look a little scared, "Not so tough now are we big guy"
