•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•

WALKING INTO GLORIA'S BAR, Stefan glances around remembering some memories he had back in the 1920's, from his ripper days. He was amazed that this place hadn't been torn down yet. Cassandra was just riding along, not really knowing the significance of the place since she has never been here. Klaus smirks as he noticed the way Stefan was looking around. "Looks familiar doesn't it?" He questions as Stefan nods his head, raising his eyebrows a little bit.

Stefan turns to look at Klaus who was glancing back at Cassandra who had decided to already pour herself a glass of alcohol. "I can't believe this place is still here." He says with a small smile as he continues to look around. Cassandra pouts a little bit as she drinks a little bit out of her glass.

"Sounds like you had a blast in the 20's. I feel left out." She admits with a dramatic sigh making Stefan roll his eyes at her. Klaus chuckles as he grabs her glass and drinks out of it. Cassandra slaps his hand before snatching her drink away from him.

"You've got to be kidding me." A new voice says with a scoff as footsteps could be heard walking closer to them. Cassandra turns her head to see a woman walking over to them with a surprised expression on her face.

"So, a hybrid walks into a bar and says--" Klaus beings to joke with a smirk on his face until the woman shakes her head, holding her hand up in order to stop him.

"Stop. You may be invincible but that doesn't make you funny." She points out making Klaus chuckle as he crossed his arms against this chest. Cassandra smirks as she raises an eyebrow at the woman.

"I already like her." Cassandra murmurs earning a fake hurtful expression from Klaus, who clutches his chest. She can't help the small giggle that escapes her lips.

"I remember you." Stefan says as he stares at the older woman in front of them. "Yeah, you're Gloria. Shouldn't you be--" He begins to say but she only cuts him off as she raises an eyebrow at him.

"Old and dead? Yeah, if I died who's gonna run this place, huh?" She asks with a smirk playing on her lips. Cassandra smiles a little, looking down at her feet as she felt kind of out of place not knowing who she was.

"Gloria's a very powerful witch." Klaus tells both of them which makes Cassandra finally figure out why they were there. He was going to ask her about what is wrong with his hybrids and why he can't make them.

"I can slow the aging down some. Herbs and spells but don't worry it will catch up to me one day." Gloria admits with a sigh as she leans against one of the pillars in the bar. Klaus turns to Stefan who was staring at nothing in particular, probably just trying to make sense of all of this.

"Stefan, why don't you go and fix us up a little something from the bar." He tells the man who nods his head before turning around, going to grab Cassandra's glass from her but she only glares at him. "You look ravishing by the way." Klaus tells the woman who only gives him a stern look, not feeling up to his games.

"Don't. I know why you're here." She tells him with a roll of her eyes before her eyes flicker to Cassandra who was finishing off her drink from earlier. "I don't understand why this beautiful young lady is with you..." Gloria trails off as a look of realization hits her, staring at the young woman who Klaus seemed to be keeping an eye on.

"See, even she doesn't see it." Cassandra says with a smirk, glancing at Klaus who rolls his eyes playfully at her.

"I'll be damned." Gloria lets out as she finally sees the connection to the stories Klaus had told her about his past. "You found her." She says, sounding shocked as she moves closer to the raven haired vampire who only furrows her eyebrows.

"I told you Gloria. I would eventually find my sweet Cassandra." Klaus says to the woman as he looks over at Cassandra who figured out that Gloria had to have been one of the witches he used while he was tracking her down.

"So, I was chit chat for you these past couple centuries? I didn't utter your name once." She teases him with a smirk on her lips, picking at her nails. Gloria shakes her head, getting up from her seat.

"Oh, honey. It wasn't chit chat. This man spoke very highly of you. I always wanted to meet the woman who could make Klaus Mikaelson so distraught." She says with a smile on her face, her eyes meeting Cassandra's. The girl was shocked for a moment, not realizing that he actually spoke to people about her. What had he told them?

"I wouldn't say I was distraught." He denies, shaking his head as he didn't want to give Cassandra too much power because he knew she would use this way too much.

"You were practically on your knees begging me to help do a locator spell."Gloria points out with scoff as she points at the man. Klaus glares at the woman a little bit, glancing at Cassandra who was loving this whole thing a little too much.

"Aww, you begged for me." She says with a gasp as she puts her hands over her chest in a dramatic way. Cassandra giggles as she saw the small smile working it's way onto his face.

"Don't flatter yourself too much, love." Klaus says with a playful eye roll as he sits down at the table. Cassandra only raises an eyebrow at him before dramatically sighing.

"It doesn't surprise me.. he was on his knees a lot in our relationship too." Cassandra admits, smirking to herself as she could feel Klaus's eyes on her. His breathy chuckle ran through her ears as she bit her lip a little bit.

"Your girl is spicy, I like it." Gloria says as she laughs, smirking at the girl. Cassandra shakes her head, making a noise of disapprovement as she sends a stern look Klaus's way.

"Not his girl." She states as she hits Klaus over the back of his head. He gives her a warning expression but she only sticks her tongue out at him.

"Ah, so you found her but haven't won her over yet." Gloria says with a smile as she watches the two interact. She could tell the love was still there but she knew why the girl was so hesitant.

"Not quite yet." Klaus says as his eyes look at Cassandra once more. She meets them, giving him the finger before turning away. He only chuckles, his eyes noticing the necklace that she had never taken off. It was a sign of hope that maybe she was more in love with him than she thought.

"A hybrid looking to create more hybrids. News travels." Gloria says, deciding to finally get onto the topic of any they were visiting her.

"So, what am I doing wrong? I broke the curse." Klaus states, sighing as he just wanted to be able to make his hybrids.

"Obviously you did something wrong. Look, every spell has a loophole. But a curse that old, we'd have to contact the witch who created it." Gloria admits with a deep breath as she meets Klaus's eyes which turn very dark at the mention of another witch.

"Well, that would be the original witch. She's very dead." He says with a small smirk on his lips which makes Cassandra sigh. He told her that their mother had been the original witch, she had turned them into the vampires they were.

"I know. And for me to contact her I'll need help." The witch responds to him as she sits forward in her seat.

"Is it only the supernatural you can contact?" Cassandra pipes up earning the attention of both Gloria and Klaus. The man was looking at her curiously, not really wanting to be sidetracked.

"I haven't tried any others. Why are you asking, sweetheart?" She asks sweetly, her eyes filling with concern. Cassandra shakes her head, not wanting to both the woman.

"Nevermind." Cassandra says as she glances down at the ground. Klaus realized that it was her mother that she wanted to contact. She wanted some peace.

"She wants to be able to meet her mother." Klaus answers for her making Cassandra snap her head towards him.

"Nik--" She scolds him, sending him a glare before looking back at Gloria. "I'm sorry. I don't want to bother you with it." Cassandra apologizes to the woman who only shakes her head, not wanting the girl to think she was stepping over boundaries.

"I have never contacted someone who wasn't supernatural before." Gloria admits sadly making the girl deflate as she nods her head, accepting the fact that she may never meet her mother. "But it doesn't mean it can't be done. Do you have anything that belongs to her?" She asks as she glances at Klaus who was watching the girl very carefully, knowing her mother was a touchy subject.

"This bracelet was hers, but it's also my daylight bracelet." She points out as she holds it out for Gloria to see.

"I'm sure you'll meet again someday. But I can try if you'd like." Gloria asks and the girl immediately nods her head. She didn't care if she had to wait until they found the necklace, she was just glad she had a chance. "Bring me Rebekah." She tells Klaus after a moment of staring at Cassandra. Klaus immediately groans at the mention of his dear sister.

"Rebekah. Rebekah is a bit preoccupied." Klaus admits with a sigh as he didn't feel like undaggering any of his siblings soon. Cassandra was more than happy to go get Rebekah though, she would finally have some of her family back.

"She has what I need. Bring her to me." Gloria tells the man in a stern voice causing Klaus to roll his eyes at her but nods nonetheless.

"What is this?" Stefan suddenly asks catching everyone attention as he holds up a picture, his eyebrows furrowing as he was getting angry with Klaus for not telling him the entire truth.

"Well, I told you Stefan. Chicago's a magical place." Klaus says as he stands up from his chair, his hand grabbing Cassandra's as she was too busy staring at her bracelet. She doesn't pull away though as she glances over at Stefan who clenches his jaw, showing everyone the picture which makes Cassandra's heart stop for a split second.

"But this is me... With you."

•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•

STEFAN AND CASSANDRA HAD FOLLOWED KLAUS INTO THE WAREHOUSE WHERE HE WAS KEEPING HIS COFFINS. The Salvatore had continously been asking questions about the picture he had found. Cassandra was curious about it too but she knew the original probably compelled Stefan to forget about it, it wasn't too hard to figure that out. "This doesn't make any sense, why don't I remember you?" Stefan suddenly asks, trying to think if actually does remember meeting the original. Klaus sighs as he walks further into the warehouse.

"You're forgetting that time had a lot of dark holes." Klaus tells him as he was still pulling Cassandra along, their hands still together which didn't go unnoticed by Stefan.

"If you knew me then why haven't you said anything?" He asks with a frustrated sigh, just wanting to know the truth for once especially if it concerned Klaus.

"I'd like to know that as well." Cassandra pipes up, wanting to know the strange history between them. She found it interesting and honestly, this was getting pretty boring.

"I'm a little busy right now, this will have to wait--" Klaus tells him but Stefan only pushes him back in order to stop him from walking. The man glares at him as Cassandra had also stumbled a little as well. Cassandra sighs as she only grabs his hand again.

"What the hell is going on? Answer me." He yells at the man who sighs, clenching his jaw as he squeezes the woman's hand. It calmed him so he was guessing that was the reason she was keeping it there.

"Let's just say we didn't get off to a brilliant start. To be honest, I hated you." Klaus admits as he pulls Cassandra closer, wrapping his free arm around her which she allowed him to do. She didn't want his anger to sky rocket because did Stefan's questions but her touch was always able to calm him down when he got too angry.

"You hate everyone."  She says, almost keeping it to herself but she thought it would lighten the mood. Klaus chuckles a little bit, gripping her hip before starting to explain how when they had met, Rebekah and Stefan had hit it off.

"Your sister.. so I knew another original vampire." Stefan says, almost not believing what he was saying. He knew two originals and had no recollection of the memories at all.

"I think you did a lot more than just know her." Cassandra mumbles making Klaus glare at her for a moment but she couldn't help but laugh, leaning her head into the back of his shoulder.

"If you can't handle it then don't ask." Klaus tells Stefan as he tries to hide his smile hearing the girls laughter. He opens Rebekah's coffin after unwrapping his arm from Cassandra, revealing the sleeping original.

"I don't recognize her." Stefan admits as his eyebrows furrow a little bit. She was pretty, he could say that but there no memory of her whatsoever in his mind.

"Don't tell her that. Rebekah's tempers worse than mine." Klaus jokes with a smirk playing on his lips. Cassandra couldn't argue there as Rebekah had moments where she was a bit more tempermental than Klaus and that was saying something.

"Time to Wake up little sister."

"Wake up Rebekah." Cassandra whispers into the blondes ear as she continues to shake the girl. The original opens her eyes only to see the raven haired vampire leaning over her making her jump slightly.

"Bloody hell, Cassandra." Rebekah gasps as she puts her hand on her chest, sitting up in her bed. She looks over at Cassandra who had no taken liberty of getting under the girls covers. "What are you doing?" She asks curiously, her eyes still half asleep as she watched the girl lay down in the bed.

"Nik isn't back yet, he's never back on time. I did not want to sleep alone." Cassandra admits with a small frown on her face, wishing Klaus was back in time but he never was. He always was late even if he told her he would be there for her.

"My idiot brother left again?" Rebekah asks with a groan, hating how Klaus was just up and leaving every couple weeks. "One of these days I'm gonna break his legs." She mutters as she thinks of all the ways she can inflict pain upon him for causing the girl so much misery.

"Can I stay in here?" Cassandra questions with pleading eyes causing the girl to only nodz sighing a little bit.

"I still do not see what you like in my brother." Rebekah admits, shaking her head as she thought Cassandra deserves way better than her brother. Then her family in general.

"He is incredible, Bekah." Cassandra lights up as she turns to face the blonde who was looking not too convinced since she knew her brother quite well. "No, I am serious. He makes me feel like I am on top of the world." She admits with a bright smile on her lips which made Rebekah feel really bad for the girl. She truly fell for this man.

"And still he leaves you for days at a time?" She asks with a scoff making Cassandra frown lightly. Was she not happy that her brother had found love? "We are going to have our own trip soon. Just the two of us and he will not complain." Rebekah announces, a bright smile now taking over her features.

"That does sound adventurous." Cassandra answers her with a soft smile before her eyelids flutter shut, sleep overtaking her. Rebekah smiles, pressing a small kiss to her forehead before getting out of the bed. She sighs before making her way downstairs, seeing Kol and Elijah sitting in a room together. Footsteps come from her left causing her to glance over to see Klaus walking through the doorway with a large sigh leaving his lips.

"Well, well. Look who finally decided to show." She lets out a scoff as she glares at the man in front of her.

"Hello, dear sister." He says with a tight smile as he stops in front of her. "Where is Cassandra, she was not in our room." Klaus asks as he furrows his eyebrows at his siblings. Elijah and Kol only shrug their shoulders, not knowing of her whereabouts since a couple hours ago.

"She came to me because she could not sleep since you broke yet another promise that you'd be home in time." Rebekah scoffs as she crosses her arms against her chest. Kol glances over at them, sharing a look with Elijah both of them knowing this wouldn't end well.

"Things went a little off course, she knows that it happens." Klaus says with a shrug as he pours himself a glass of alcohol, taking a drink of it.

"That is not how you treat a woman, Nik. You do not just leave her in the middle of the night and expect her to just jump back in your arms the moment you come back." Rebekah says in a frustrated voice and she could tell Elijah and Kol had agreed with her. They too saw how wrong Klaus and Cassandra were for each other.

"And yet she always does." Klaus says with a roll of his eyes as he was fed up with his sister's antics. "Now if you'll excuse me, I am going to fetch her." He tells them before heading to leave but Rebekah blocks him, a stern gaze on her face.

"No. You do not get to see her tonight." Rebekah states as she stands her ground. Klaus only glares at her, glancing at his brothers who were only watching the scene unfold.

"Move out of the way, sister." He demands but she only stares back at him, not moving in the slightest because Cassandra deserved a moment to maybe reconsider her feelings.

"You do not scare me." Rebekah replies, a smirk on her lips as she wanted her brother to know that he had no affect on her.

"Rebekah, maybe it would be wise to let Nicklaus go." Elijah tries to resolve the situation before it escalated but Rebekah only shakes her head, not letting Klaus go chasing after Cassandra.

"He needs to learn that his actions have consequences because one of these days, she may not be here when he comes back." She tells her brother's who all stay silent for a moment. Klaus was about ready to snap her neck, not liking the way she was talking to him, especially about Cassandra.

"Of course she bloody will be. She always goes back to him." Kol grumbles, wanting for his best friend to finally see how bad his brother really was for her but she was blinded by him that she couldn't see it.

"Be quiet, Kol." Rebekah snaps at her brother, not seeing how he was helping the situation any. Kol only rolls his eyes, sitting back down as he let his siblings hash this out.

"Unlike others, Cassandra would never leave me because as much as you do not like it sister, she is in love with me." Klaus admits in a stern voice, staring at the blonde who only rolls her eyes. Of course the man would say that but only Cassandra knew of her true feelings. No one could say them for her.

"She deserves better than a man who doesn't even stay a full week with her before leaving over and over again." Rebekah tells him with a scoff, shaking her head. She didn't think her brother would ever treat his own lady this badly but of course she had to be wrong.

"Get out of my way Rebekah." He demands, not going to ask again as he glares at his sister who doesn't move an inch. They are interrupted by one of their maids rushing into the room.

"Lady Cassandra wanted me to inform you that she has left to clear her head and to not go and follow her." One of the maids tells them before rushing off, not wanting to get into any trouble with the family.

"See what you did, sister?" Klaus asks her with anger seeping through his tone. Rebekah squints her eyes at him, glaring hardly as she couldn't believe he was actually trying to blame her.

"What I did? Take a look in the mirror before you go accusing other people about making her upset." Rebekah sneers at him before leaving the man to ponder that thought. Klaus always blamed others for making Cassandra upset when he was always the main reason, he just never let himself admit to it.

"Anytime time now, Rebekah... She's being dramatic." Klaus tells them as he crosses his arms against his chest. Stefan rolls his eyes as he moves closer to the man, still not fully understanding everything.

"Why don't you just tell me what the hell is going on? I mean, you obviously want me here for a reason right?" He asks him with a raise of his eyebrows. Klaus turns his head to him, smirking ever so slightly

"Well, you have many useful talents. In fact, I learned some of my favorite tricks from you." The man says before his eyes move back to his sister who had yet to make any progress in waking up.

"Just go, I'll keep an eye out for Rebekah." Cassandra finally says, wanting to be rid of both of them if even just for a couple of hours. Klaus glances at her but nods, deciding it would be best if it was just Cassandra here when Rebekah woke up.

"Thanks, love. We'll be at Gloria's bar." Klaus tells her but when he goes to move he suddenly stops. Cassandra only stares at him, waiting for him to leave.

"Are you gonna go?" She asks impatiently as she gives him a slightly annoyed expression. Klaus only licks his bottom lip as he smirks at her, leaning down a little bit.

"You are on my foot, love." He tells her with an amused expression making her blush as she noticed she was in fact standing on his foot. Removing it slowly, she avoids the man's eyes before he leaves to go see Gloria. Cassandra sighs as she leans down against the wall next to Rebekah's coffin. This was going to be a boring time that she had voluntarily signed up for no given reason. She really had to get better judgement.

•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•

CASSANDRA WAS STARTING TO THINK REBEKAH WAS JUST TAUNTING HER, staying dead longer just to make her anxious. It was something that she would do. A groan leaves her lips as she leans over the coffin, staring at the dessicated originals body. She was ready to slap the girl if she really needed to. It was taking so long, given she had been dead for over seventy years so she should be giving the girl some leniency. "Ugh, come on Bekah. Wake up already." She grumbles as she stands back up, shaking the girl for a second. Cassandra rolls her eyes, rubbing her face before she suddenly sees color restore to the girls skin. Her eyes widen as she notices the veins also leaving her body. After a few seconds, the woman opens her eyes taking in a soft intake of air. Her eyes look around frantically before they land on Cassandra who was just staring at her.

"Cassandra?" Rebekah asks, trying to see if her eyes were making her hallucinate things. She speeds out of the coffin, standing in front of the girl for a moment before pulling her into a bone crushing hug.

"Nice to see you again too, Bekah." She laughs as she wraps her arms around the blonde who was squeezing her like her life depended on it.

"I thought I'd never see you again." Rebekah admits with a sigh as she embraces her a little bit more tightly.

"Learning that Nik daggered you all, trust me so did I." Cassandra tells her with a smile before pulling away from her. Rebekah nudges her a little bit, not wanting to hurt the woman but also not having the strength to slap her.

"I can't believe you still come back to him even after all this time." Rebekah says as she shakes her head, almost scolding her for not taking a chance to be an actual free woman.

"I'm not back with him. I'm here because of a friend." Cassandra says but Rebekah didn't seem all too convinced as she squints her eyes a little bit.

"Right." She mutters before looking down at her outfit then glancing at Cassandra's which was a bit more revealing which only made Rebekah turn her nose up. "What year is it?" Rebekah asks as her eyebrows furrow, not recognizing anything aorund her even though they were in a warehouse so there wasn't much to look at.

"2011." Cassandra answers slowly, seeing Rebekah's face turn to anger as she did the math from when she was daggered.

"Of course it bloody hell is." She mutters, scoffing a little as she couldn't help but hate her brother for leaving her to rot for almost a hundred years. "Where is my idiot of a brother." Rebekah asks as she glances around, not seeing anyone else but Cassandra who shrugs her shoulders.

"Probably on his way back since you took a while to wake up." She admits as she leans against the wall. Rebekah stares at her for a moment, almost feeling like her eyes were deceiving her.

"I still can't believe you're here." Rebekah says with a small smile since it had been a while since they had seen each other. December 14, 1491 being the last time they layed eyes on one another.

"I had a slip up." Cassandra suddenly blurts out, not being able to keep it down any longer. Rebekah still had this effect on her even after all of this time. The blonde lets out a loud laugh, shaking her head.

"I knew it. You can't resist him." Rebekah tells her making the girl scrunch her nose up at the accusation.

"I can! It's just.. I made a mistake." She admits with a whine, not wanting Rebekah to judge her for jumping into bed so quickly with her brother.

"Are you sure it was a mistake?" Rebekah asks, squinting her eyes at the girl. She knew how Cassandra felt for her brother, and she didn't believe that the girl thought it was a mistake, especially since she was still hanging around him after so long.

"My love life is way more complicated then it was five hundred years ago." She tells the girl with a sigh as she rubs her face. Rebekah only scoffs as she crosses her arms against her chest.

"Because of Elijah?" Rebekah asks as she raises an eyebrow at the girl. Cassandras eyes widen as she stares at the girl in shock.

"You knew?" She asks, seeing the girl nod her head. Did everyone know of Elijah's feelings for her except for herself? It seemed everyone was able to figure it out so quickly.

"I figured it out but I didn't think it would ever happen.. well, until you ran." Rebekah says truthfully with a little shrug. There was no way Klaus was going to let his brother weasel his way into his relationship. It was only after they were broken up did Elijah truly stand a chance.

"It did happen." Cassandra says earning a surprised look from Rebekah who's ears practically perk up wanting to know everything that she had missed. "But then he broke my trust just like everyone else." She adds with a scoff, shaking her head a little bit.

"Elijah did?" Rebekah asks as she furrows her eyebrows, not believing that Elijah would do something like that to Cassandra, especially after so long pining for her.

"He lied to me about Nik, about the truth of that night." She answers the girls question, reliving the memory of confronting Elijah about breaking her trust.

"And he promised you he'd never lie to you." Rebekah puts the pieces together as closes her eyes for a moment, letting a scoff leave her lips. "So both of my brothers are bloody idiots." She states as she couldn't believe both of them had hurt the girl in some way.

"Why couldn't I fall in love with you instead." Cassandra asks with a sly smirk on her lips. Rebekah smiles back, honestly wishing they had fallen for each other rather than all the man who have screwed them over.

"I wish you did. It would've saved us both a whole lot of heartache." Rebekah points out with a laugh, glancing down for a moment. Cassandra frowns, looking around the room.

"I don't know if I want him back in my life, Bekah." She admits to the blonde who stares up at her, her face showing a million different emotions as she tries to put what she wants to say into words.

"Cass, I know you think he's a horrible person.. quite frankly he is--" Rebekah stops herself for a moment. She knew her brother was a bad person, he didn't treat Cassandra the best but there was no denying that he truly cares for her. "But you have to stop denying that you want him to be a part of your life. He spent five hundred years searching for you. He's not going away easily." She explains to the girl, thinking it was actually kind of sweet how long her brother searched. Even if it was really to figure out why she left him but he still was madly in love with her. "Do you genuinely want him to?" Rebekah asks after a moment of silence. Cassandra only stares back at her, not really knowing how to respond because realistically, she didn't know the answer.

"Rebekah. It's your big brother. Come out come out wherever you are." Klaus's voice rings out throughout the warehouse. Cassandra puts her finger to her lip as she holds out the dagger to Rebekah who only smirks at her. Sneaking up behind the man, Rebekah stabs him through the chest with it causing him to let out small sound of pain.

"Go to hell, Nik." She sneers at him as a glare flashes over her eyes. Klaus groans as he pulls the dagger from his chest, dropping it to the floor. His eyes meet Cassandra's which were flooded with amusement.

"You couldn't have warned me?" He asks with a raise of an eyebrow but she only snorts, shrugging her shoulders.

"She deserved that. And plus, I wanted to see that." Cassandra admits with a smirk growing on her lips. Rebekah looked displeased though as she watched her brother heal.

"Don't pout, you knew it wouldn't kill me." Klaus says with a deep breath as he picks up the dagger and places it on one of the tables.

"No, but I was hoping it would hurt more." Rebekah says with a pout as she crosses her arms against her chest. Klaus rolls his eyes, setting the dagger down as he lets out a sigh.

"I understand that you're upset with me Rebekah, so I'm going to let that go. Just this once." He tells her which makes Cassandra glare at him, sticking up for Rebekah who was only staring back at her brother, afraid he would dagger her again.

"She has every right to be upset. Stop being a big baby just because she wanted to leave you alone." She suddenly snaps at the man catching him off guard. Klaus stares at Cassandra, a little hurt by her words but looks away once he noticed her glare wasn't going to waver.

"I told you, Nik. One day she won't come running back to you." Rebekah says with a small smirk on her lips, knowing that it wouldn't be easy to get the girl back since she has clearly changed from the last time the blonde had seen her.

"I brought you a little piece offering." Klaus says after a moment of glaring at his sister. Rebekah furrows her eyebrows but still keeps her arms crossed. "You can come in." He announces allowing Stefan to walk into the room, a look of confusion still on his face. Rebekahs eyes widen at the sight of the man. A small gasp releases from her lips.

"Stefan." She says breathless, a small smile overtaking her features. Cassandra glances between them, not knowing exactly what went down between them but she could tell that Rebekah had feelings for him, even after so long.

"Now, you remember." Klaus tells Stefan as he looks him in the eyes. Stefan closes them for a moment before he opens them, meeting Rebekah's as a shocked expression takes over his face.

"Rebekah?" He asks causing the blonde to smile more as she starts to walk over to him. Cassandra follows her, her eyes meeting Klaus's who only smiles at her.

"I remember you. We were friends." Stefan says as he stares at Klaus, now remembering everything they had done together.

"We are friends." He states with a smirk before turning to look at Rebekah who was still glued to Cassandra's side. "And now the reason you're here. Gloria tells me you know how to contact the original witch." Klaus says as he glances at his sister who furrows her eyebrows for a split second.

"The original witch." Rebekah repeats, as if she didn't quite hear him. Klaus nods as he steps closer to his sister, raising an eyebrow expectantly at her.

"You have what Gloria needs." Klaus tells her and Rebekah nods as her hand goes to her chest causing her to instantly freeze. Rebekah glances down only to see there was nothing there.

"Where's my necklace? What did you do with it, I never take it off." Rebekah asks her brother furiously but the man only rolls his eyes as he shrugs his shoulders, not once seeing the necklace since she's been in the coffin.

"I don't know. I didn't touch it." He admits truthfully as Rebekah searches everywhere but there was no sign of it. Cassandra furrows her eyebrows as her eyes watch a frantic Rebekah.

"We need to find it." She tells him as she meets her brother's eyes which fill with realization of why his sister needed to find her damn necklace so badly.

"Tell me that's not what she needs." Klaus says in a low tone, feeling anger fill his body as he looks at his sister.

"Now, I want it back!" Rebekah yells as she couldn't believe she had lost her mother's necklace. Suddenly her arms were gripped by Klaus as he stares at her furiously.

"Tell me that's not what she needs Rebekah." He yells at her but Rebekah only stares back at him. Anger was flooding through both of their veins as Rebekah speeds to the coffin and flips it over. Cassandra sighs as she covers her face. This could not be happening right now. She connects eyes with blonde original who was seething with anger but who wouldn't be. They needed her necklace but the only problem is it wasnt with her. Which meant no one had seen it since the 1920's.
