"Vanessa" Claire whispers shocked. Vanessa smirks and steps closer to Claire.

"Goodbye, Claire" Before Claire could defend herself Vanessa casts a spells making Claire pass out. A fog covers the ally and when the fog clears, Vanessa is gone and so is Claire. In her place is a girl, a brunette girl. Slowly, the girl wakes up and looks around.

"Where the hell am I?" The girl whispers. She groans as she moves onto her knees and finally notices Finn and Henrik. While she recognized Finn, her eyebrows frown at the warlock. "Finn" She whispers moving closer to him. She notices his neck is snapped and is quick to heal it. Finn groans and slowly wakes up. She smiles as relief floods her body. "Finn" She whispers again with a smile. He frowns his eyebrows at her as he slowly sits up. "Where are we? Who is that?" She asks motioning towards Henrik.

"Who are you?" Finn asks. The girl laughs as if he's making a joke but it dies awkwardly when there's no amusement on Finn's face.

"You're joking, right? Finn, it's me, it's Alondra" The name doesn't ring any bells. Finn stands up ignoring the brunette. He then remembers the moments leading up to his neck being snapped. How he was following a familiar figure, how Claire and Henrik were following him. He remembers recognizing the scent and then it all goes black.

"Claire?" Finn asks looking around. Alondra frowns her eyebrows as well and looks around not seeing anybody with them. "Claire!? Claire?!" Finn speeds around the ally searching for her scent but it ends where Alondra stands.

"Finn, what's going on? Who's Claire?" Alondra asks. Finn growls and in a flash has her up against the wall, his hand clamped around her neck. "Finn! What are you doing?"

"Who are you?" Finn growled. "Why are you here? Where's Claire?" He growls fighting his instincts to demolish her.

"I don't know" Alondra whimpers, her heartbreaking at the sight of her mate being so angry, so ruthless towards her. 

A groan sounds from behind Finn. He drops Alondra and turns to his brother. By the time Henrik sits up the rest of the brothers appear in the ally. Alondra smiles at them, her body relaxing as she gravitates towards the closest one, Elijah.

"Elijah, thank God you're here. I think something happened to Finn, he doesn't recognize me" Alondra tells him.

"And you are?" Elijah asks frowning his eyebrows.

"Who cares who she is?" Kol snaps furiously. Alondra slowly backs away. "Where's Claire? Where is she?!" Kol didn't know who to shout at. He didn't know whether to direct his anger at his brothers, Henrik and Finn for losing her, or Alondra for being here instead of her.

"Ok, what the fuck is going on?!" Alondra snapped. "Where are we? Why don't you recognize me? Someone better start talking!" Alondra shouts. Then her own memories start to return to her. She remembers being at Mystic Falls with her mates, her Mikaelson's. She remembers her aunt and how Aunt Valerie tried to kill her yet she ended up here. "How did your neck gets snapped?" Alondra asks Finn. All eyes turned to Finn.

"It was Vanessa," Finn says looking down at Henrik who had yet to stand up.

"Vanessa?" Elijah asks. "That's impossible, she died" Elijah shakes his head.

"I'm telling you, she's alive. I'd recognize that whore's scent anywhere" Finn growled.

"How could she have survived?" Henrik asks frowning his eyebrows. "A fucking building fell on her" 

"I don't know but it's her" Finn tells them.

"Who's Vanessa?" Alondra asks confused.

"Who are you?" Kol growls walking up to her.

"Alondra, something tells me I'm not from this world" She mutters. The brothers all frown their eyebrows. "Let me guess, this Claire you're all trying to find it your mate" From their protective and irritated reactions, Alondra knew she was right. "Where I'm from, you're all my mates, except for you, I don't know who you are," Alondra says looking at Henrik.

"I'm Henrik" He introduces. Alondra scoffs and shakes her head.

"You're not Henrik" Alondra shakes her head. "Henrik is a lot more muscly, taller, deeper voice" Alondra shrugs. "You're just a wannabe" Alondra smirks. Henrik narrows his eyes at her as Finn gives him a hand up.

"This has been a fascinating conversation and all but I would like to know where my mate is" Klaus says. "So be a dear, sweetheart, and give me the information I want before I become less honorable" Klaus smiles at her threateningly.

"My best bet is that if I'm here than Claire is where I'm supposed to be" Kol growls and slams his fist into the wall best Alondra. "I don't like it any more than you do, I'd much rather be home but instead I'm here" Alondra grumbles.

"Why don't we just return home and consult Hanna?" Elijah suggest. Kol growls and speeds off. Elijah sighs walk closer to Alondra. "May I?" She gives him a small smile and nods. He picks her up and disappears. Alondra buries her head in his neck, savoring the feeling of being in his arms despite knowing it's not her Elijah.

A little over a minute later Elijah is setting her down on the ground. Alondra's eyes widen at the beauty of the property. She instantly senses that the people walking around are hybrids. She also notices that not only is she no longer in her own universe but she's not even in Mystic Falls.

"Where is this place?" Alondra asks Elijah as they walk up to the front door.

"We're just on the outskirts of New Orleans" Elijah informs her.

"New Orleans" She whispers under her breath as she enters the house.

"Papa Lijah! Papa Lijah!" Alondra instantly notices a small girl running towards Elijah. Elijah's face lifts and he bends down to pick her up in his arms. She giggles and he tosses her into the air and catches her quickly. "Where's mommy?" Madelyn asked before yawning. Elijah tenses and he hugs her to his chest. Madelyn snuggles in his embrace.

"Mommy'll be back soon" He whispers. "It is way past your bedtime, young lady" Elijah scolds playfully. "Excuse me" He mutters to Alondra before walking up to Madelyn's room.

"Hi, you're Alondra right?" Alondra's attention is pulled towards a tall, dark-haired woman with an Australian accent. "I'm Hanna" 

"Hey, nice to meet you. They mentioned you earlier, hopefully, you know what's going on" Alondra says.

"We'll see what we can find out, come on. Are you hungry or anything?" Hanna asks. Alondra shakes her head rubbing her arms. "Come with me" Alondra nods and follows her into a rather large office room. Her eyes instantly land on Caroline and Bonnie.

"What are you two doing here?" Alondra spits. Bonnie raises her eyebrows while Caroline scowls. 

"I'm assuming you know who they are" Hanna mutters.

"Yeah, I know them" Alondra growls. "They only tried to kill my mates"

"We don't even know who you are" Caroline spat stalking towards Alondra as if to intimidate her but it didn't seem to have the effect Caroline was looking for. "All I know is that you're here and some bitch that is supposed to be dead did something to my twin sister"

"Of course, she had to be your twin" Alondra rolls her eyes. Before they could continue to go at each other the Mikaelson's including Asher, Archie and Penelope enter the room. Alondra notices how one of the twins, Asher, holds Rebekah close to him. Another difference between the two worlds.

"Why don't you explain who you are and how you think you got here," Hanna says looking at Alondra gently. 

"Where's Mal?" Alondra asks frowning her eyebrows.

"Mal?" Bonnie asks not knowing who it is. Kol groans dramatically.

"Is that another person that we have to worry about?" Kol grumbles.

"Malachai is my mate," Alondra tells them. "My other mate" She adds before anybody could say anything. "Is he not here?"

"We don't know a Malachai" Penelope speaks up as she tries to ignore the butterflies in her stomach at the sound of his name. "It's just us" Alondra presses her lips together assuming that her beloved is still stuck in the prison world. Despite her Mal being safe and sound on her world, she knew she couldn't leave without releasing him in this one.

"My name is Alondra Kaylee Barnes. I'm a whitelighter-" Alondra begins knowing that they weren't getting anywhere with Malachai. However, Caroline cuts her off further annoying Alondra.

"A what?" Caroline asks. Alondra sends her a glare which Caroline returns.

"A whitelighter" Alondra says slowly and patronizingly. "What? Don't have those here?" Alondra cocks her head to the side with her arms crossed.

"Just continue before we all lose our patience" Klaus grumbles rubbing his face stressfully. Alondra relaxes slightly and continues while making an effort to simply ignore both Bonnie and Caroline.

"As I was saying" Alondra mumbles. "I'm a whitelighter. In my world, I'm mates with Malachai, Finn, Elijah, Nik, Kol, and Henrik. Although my Henrik looks differently than you" Alondra says looking at him. "And mine isn't a warlock, mines a vampire, an Original"

"So you're saying in your world I didn't die?" Henrik asks. Alondra frowns her eyebrows. "I died when I was about 12 years old but I came back"

"No, that didn't happen on my world" Alondra shakes her head. Henrik shrugs feeling interested in his alternate self. "It was just a normal day, I was with my mates when my Aunt Valerie came and attacked us. She said that my parents took her mate away from her so to get revenge on them she took me from them but instead of killing me, I'm here." Alondra shrugs. "The end"

"So you come here and Claire goes there" Hanna mutters. Alondra nods.

"What's your story?" Alondra asks. "They mentioned someone named Vanessa" Archie instantly tenses and a few eyes fall on him.

"Impossible" Archie whispers.

"Unfortunately it's not" Klaus growls.

"What did this Vanessa do?" Alondra asks.

"Claire and I don't share the same father" Caroline begins. Alondra reluctantly looks at her. "Her father is named Noah South. He was a very powerful wizard. His old coven practiced dark magic but he got out. He killed most of them but some got away; his brother, his sister-in-law, nephew and a friend of the family, Vanessa. Their plan was to kill Claire and then her daughter Madelyn so that their magic would flow back into the coven. Vanessa used Archie to get to Claire. Their plan didn't work, obviously. We were able to defeat them but Vanessa seemed to survive" Alondra glances at Archie who just looked at his shoes. Asher nudges him gently showing some support.

"She was there at the festival" Finn brings up. "She's strong. She was able to break my neck and knock Henrik out all without revealing herself." 

"So now what?" Kol asks. "Now that we're all buddy buddy and are done with storytime, what's our plan? How do we get Claire back?"

"And get me home?" Alondra asks but Kol could care less what happens to her, all he wants is his angel.

"We'll search the grimoires, see if we can't find a spell or something on what is going on," Hanna says. "I know you don't like Marcel but Davina is very powerful. Maybe she has grimoires we don't, a perspective we don't have"

"I'll collect her" Kol growls disappearing. Elijah sighs and quickly follows him knowing Kol would be less than kind. Elijah wanted to keep the peace that could break if Kol is left on his own.

"I can help," Alondra says. Hanna smiles and nods.

"It's late, we should get rest and give it our all tomorrow" Hanna decides.

"I want Claire found now" Klaus growls standing up.

"It's going to take time, Klaus. We're all exhausted from the day. If we start our search now we could miss something. It's better if we start tomorrow" Hanna says.

"I don't care if you're tired! I want my mate now!" Klaus shouted having a harder time than his brothers at controlling himself since she's carrying his child.

"She's right, we need our rest. We owe it to Claire to be at our best" Henrik says standing in front of Hanna protectively. Klaus growls and leaves the room.

"Penny, why don't you show Alondra, where she can stay for the time being" Hanna, says and Penelope nods motioning for Alondra to follow her. 

"Penny, right?" Alondra says. Penelope nods.

"Claire's half-sister" Penelope explains. Alondra slowly nods. "I'm sorry this happened to you, it can't be easy"

"I'm just worried how my mates are handling it" Alondra mutters.

"Probably the same as them," Penelope says. "I'd stay clear of Klaus if I were you" Penelope warns. "Claire's carrying his child, it's making him a little more unhinged than usual"

"She's pregnant?" Alondra asks shocked. Penelope nods.

"Around 4 months by now," Penelope tells her. "There's a lot of drama with that, I don't think you'll be here long enough to get caught up" Penelope grins and Alondra smiles softly as she places her own hand on her stomach. "This'll be your room for your stay" 

"Wow, it's big," Alondra says. Penelope nods rubbing her arm. "Is there something on your mind?" Alondra asks.

"You mentioned someone earlier" Penelope mutters. Alondra tilts her head. "Malachai"

"Ah, yeah" Alondra smiles and sits on her bed. Penelope leans against the doorway as Alondra describes him to her. "He's a siphoner from the Gemini coven. He was bullied for being a siphoner by his family. One day he killed the majority of his family and the ones who survived sent him to a prison world. Seeing as you don't know who he is, I'm assuming that's where he's at in this universe"

"He killed his family?" Penelope whispers hugging herself. She found it shocking but at the same time, it didn't bother her. She didn't know what to think of her indifference but she didn't dwell on it. All she could think about is the little information Alondra gave her.

"They were terrible to him," Alondra explains. "Just because he's a siphoner" Penelope frowns as she remembers the troubles her brother, Archie, and sister, Claire, went through just because they're siphoners. "Everyone has their breaking point" Penelope slowly nods. "He's a sweetheart though, very protective." Penelope smiles to herself. "I plan on getting him out of the prison world before I leave, would you help me?"

"Of course" Penelope answers without hesitation. Alondra smiles knowingly. 

"Thank you, Penny," Alondra says sincerely. Penelope nods before bidding her goodnight. Alondra sighs and lays in the bed. She closes her eyes and imagines home. She imagines her mates and being in their arms. All she wants to do is get back home.
