"WHAT ARE YOU GUYS DOING?" Ophelia walked into the bathroom at the Salvatore home, seeing the sight of Damon making vervain bombs for homecoming tonight.

"Making smoothies and strawberry milkshakes, duh," Damon said, in a sarcastic voice, making Ophelia roll her eyes at him. She walked towards him in the bathroom and picked up one of the bottles that are full of wolfsbane.

"You know, I don't know if I trust Rebekah on this. Who knows, she might turn on us last minute for Klaus."

Attempting to make a wolfsbane grenade, Damon went in front of the girl, slapping her hand lightly before grabbing the weapon from her hand.

"What, come on, Damon, Alaric taught me how to make one of these. I can protect myself."

"Yes, and I believe you, but if this blows up, only one of us heals quickly." Knowing he was right, Ophelia gave in and handed Damon the grenade.

Due to the gym being flooded, the dance was now being held at Tyler's home. After Ophelia finally picked out an outfit for homecoming, Damon and Stefan offered to give her a ride, but she didn't want to feel like a burden to them, so she drove herself.

The party was huge and the live band definitely made it better for entertainment. Ophelia saw Tyler and made her way up to him.

"Hey, Ty, this is a killer party."

"Thanks, but I'm not the one throwing it. Your uncle was the one who wanted this." Scrunching her eyebrows in confusion, Ophelia was about to ask more questions but was interrupted when Klaus' voice spoke up, stopping the band.

"Good evening, everyone! I want to thank you for being here with me to celebrate! It's been a long time coming." Ophelia can see Klaus staring at her with his signature smirk, making her feel uneasy, knowing that her uncle is going to die tonight.

After Klaus was done with the introduction, he walked his way towards his niece. "Well, hello, dear niece, I hope you are enjoying this party. I tried to make it more enjoyable for you." Ophelia couldn't tell if he was being sarcastic, but his tone of voice made it seem like he was serious, which was off-putting for her.

"Thanks, the party is okay, but I just want to sleep." Klaus only smiled at her even more.

"Well after tonight, you can rest assured. With Mikael gone, we can bring back our family and it will be whole again." Klaus talking about their family made Ophelia smile lightly. She missed Elijah dearly and meeting her other family members sounded nice as well, even though she has met them... a long time ago.

"Come along, let's go play some beer pong." Ophelia let out a stifled laugh, making Klaus look at her with curiosity.

"Nice parenting. I know Elijah would definitely not approve of this." Klaus smiled along with his niece, missing that humor. It reminded him of the days back in the 1900s where she would always entertain the Mikaelson's with her humor.

"My love, I promise you that when all of this is over, I will find a way to get your memories back. It will not affect your current life, it will only bring back your past memories." Giving him a smile of appreciation, Ophelia gave him a hug, surprising the hybrid at first, but he hugged back soon after.

One of Klaus' hybrids went up to the pair and told him that he had a visitor. Knowing exactly who this visitor was, he put down the beer that he was drinking and the expression on his face was clear to Ophelia who it was.

Klaus grabbed Ophelia's hand and led her out with him to the don't door where Mikael was standing. "Hello, Niklaus. Ophelia."

"Don't talk to her," Klaus immediately said, pushing her back behind him slightly. Mikael only chuckled at Klaus, making Ophelia stare at him with confusion.

"The big bad wolf. Who knew you would actually care for someone else other than yourself? What about, oh I don't know, the doppelgänger?" Mikael then used one of Klaus' minions to bring Elena out in front of Klaus, his eyes visibly widening at the sight of her.

"Go ahead, kill her. All I need to to get rid of you."

"To what end, Niklaus? So you can live forever, with no one at your side? Nobody cares about you anymore, boy! What do you have other than those whose loyalty you forced? No one. No one." Ophelia couldn't help but feel bad for Klaus. No wonder he is the way he is. The father figure he was raised by, despised him.

Tired of what Mikael was saying, Ophelia decided to speak up. "You're wrong. There are people that care for him and I'm one of them. He didn't have to force me at all. Even though I can't remember my memories from the 1900s, I can tell that Klaus cares deeply for me as I do for him."

Mikael just chuckled at the human girl, laughing at her stupidity, but Ophelia knew what she felt and it was genuine.

Klaus kept provoking Mikael to kill Elena, but he only laughed at him. When Mikael stabbed Elena, both Klaus' and Ophelia's mouths dropped open in shock. Soon after, Damon came flashing in front of Klaus, stabbing him with the white oak stake.

"No!" Ophelia tried to pull Damon off of him, but Elena got up as if she was completely okay, to soon find out that it was Katherine, catching her completely off guard. Stefan immediately pulled Stefan off of Damon, making Ophelia question what was going on.

When Klaus noticed the white oak stake was next to him, he used this opportunity to stab Mikael in the heart, making him scream in agony, his body soon lighting on fire. What an interesting way for ending homecoming, Ophelia thought to herself.

"I had him, Ophelia. I had him!" Damon then threw his bourbon bottle in the fire. Ophelia put her hands on his cheeks, attempting to calm him down.

"Damon, stop. It's going to be okay. We will always be okay. Besides, I know Klaus has a soft spot for me so it's not a complete loss, I suppose." Damon kept shaking his head no, still not being comforted at all by the situation.

"No, it's not okay. Stefan will be out for revenge and everything will not be okay." Having enough of this, Ophelia decided to use her sternness with him.

"Dammit, Damon, look at me." This time, Ophelia forcefully made Damon look into her eyes, somehow giving him immediate comfort.

"We will be okay. Stefan will be okay. Even if that means we have to let him go." Damon stared at her with his soft icy blue eyes. Walking closer to Ophelia, he gently placed a kiss on her forehead, then pulled her into a hug.

"God, what would I do without you?" He could feel the smile that was burrowed in his chest.

"You'd be off with someone who is less badass than me." Damon and Ophelia both laughed, leaving the night off with a good note.
