"WE'RE HERE!!!" I shout as I get out of the airplane strutting down the stairs as if I'm a Hollywood star. I am as good looking as one so...

"Nova Scotia here we come!" Ty says loudly almost matching my energy. Almost. And the others are just shaking their heads at us in amusement as if we're clowns in a circus. Which I am highly offended by being that clowns scare the shit out of me. They're supposed to be funny right? Right? Not. They're not funny. They're middle aged guys spraying water out of a plant looking at the audience with sorrow as if we're going to die. Clowns are evil. Evil I tell you. If I had to choose between a clown and being trapped in a room with psycothic maniac I would definitely choose the latter. But who am I kidding? The psycothic ones are always more fun! And clown...

"Now what?" Caroline asks after we're all out of the big flying metal box cutting my mind rambling on clowns short. "Did you plan anything at all Ellie?"

"Nope." I grin as I turn to them. Who does she think I am? I don't plan, I wing it. And if it doesn't work out and we all end up dead so be it. We would have fun in the Underworld for all eternity. More people for the card games!

"Seriously?" Care asks in her Caroline like way that makes me fangirl in my head. "Fine. I'll get us a hotel..." She sighs as she gets her phone out.

"You're such a Monica," I state after observing her for a few seconds, and she snorts.

"And you're such a Pheobe. We all have our roles." She says off-handely waving it off as she scrolls through the wonder that is the internet.

"As much as I like Pheebs I'm not her, at all."

"Debatable."

"Who are these people you are talking about?" Kol asks and Ty and Davina laugh as my jaw and Caroline's drop. How- Uh- WHAT?!

"You so need to watch Friends." Caroline sighs.

"Indeed. It's a crime you haven't watched it yet. Being in a coffin for a hundred years doesn't count as an excuse either. It should have been your priority." I agree and he looks at us blankly. "It's a Tv show. It's awesome at that. It's about a group of friends."

"I would've never guessed." He says and we laugh at my expense. Huh.

After laughing for a while longer mocking my... Well, me in general. We left for the fancy five-star hotel Caroline got us. We girls were sharing a room and the blokes were sharing another. In the morning we're going to set out to the island by witchy ways because there's no way I'm getting on a boat. I respect the ocean but it kind of scares me... Huh. I mean what if I fall in and get sucked into its depths and then get eaten by a whale and have to survive of the food it eats until eventually I get digested and die? Sure I'm a Goddess and I could easily get out of there but... *Shudder*

***

We're now having a delicious breakfast in the hotel's restaurant and I'm stuffing myself with scrambled eggs and bacon. Yum! Me and Kol are in front of Care and Vina and Ty is at the head of the table like an alpha male.

"Are you sure, we need to do this?" Ty asks suddenly as I shove another piece of bacon into my mouth. He has the worst timing in the world.

"Yeah, can't we just let the guy sleep?" Davina asks as she sees that I'm still trying to chew and sawllow.

"As much as I respect sleep, Silas is better off dead," I tell them after I ate.

"I agree, darling. I like being a dead living person. Dying isn't really on my to-do list." Kol says.

"Is there any chance we die?" Caroline asks nervously.

"Like one in a million. And do not worry that pretty blond head of yours. If you eventually die we'll live together in the Underworld!" I grin at her and she smiles.

"Fine by me. But I'd rather not die."

"I'd rather she stayed alive as well." Davina agrees and Ty shrugs.

"Meh." He says and Caroline glares at him and he gulps, "I mean, if you died I'd be devasted. I'd cry myself to death just so I could be with you."

"That was so unnecessary Ty," I say bluntly.

"You could just slit your throat, mate. No need to die a shameful death." Kol grins and I snort. "Or I could kill you myself."

"I'll come to you if I ever need to escape Care," Tyler says seriously and Caroline huffs.

"Moving on from Tyler's most certain death. We'll need to be careful on the island." I tell them.

"Why? Aren't we just waking up a really old dude?" Ty asks.

"There'll be traps" Davina huffs, "Haven't you ever watched movies?"

"Right. That and as soon as Silas has blood he'll start doing his psychic hallucination juju." I tell them. "Don't believe anything you see."

"Then how will we kill him?" Kol asks me.

"I'm not affected." I smirk, "But please don't try to kill me. I'm fragile."

"Sure you are." Tyler snorts.

"What next?" Vina asks.

"Next we're going to Oregon." I grin. "By car!"

"That's going to take days, Ellie!" Caroline says with a groan.

"But it'll be fun!" I grin.

"Maybe the first hour. But the rest will be hell." Davina says.

"I wouldn't mind going by car. I've never been on a car journey." Kol says and I beam at him.

"I'm really sorry El, but I can't go on a car ride for nine days," Caroline says with a grimace.

"Me neither. I'm sick just thinking about it." Tyler says with a frown.

"Fine. How about this. I and Kol go together and you three wusses go back to Mystic Falls via flying metal box."

They all look at each other and put on these thoughtful expressions then exchange smirks and grin similarly at me. Talk about Siamese twins...

"Fine," Caroline says. "If you insist."

"Thank you. Now let's go kill Silas." I say.

After breakfast, we got our bags and everything ready and set off to the island. When I say set off I mean got together in my room and apparated there. Once we did we found ourselves in the cave already. How interesting. This saved us the trouble to actually walk the whole way there. I would so get blisters and die in a ditch. Or I would get adopted by the wild life and become Tarzana. But that's a bit far fetched. So we started walking searching for Silas's stoned body. I fell in about every slippery rock which caused Kol to lose his patience and throw me over his shoulder in order to carry me. How nice. Huff.

"Are we there yet?" I ask (still hanging off Kol's back - I'm starting to feel dizzy and I'll probably pass out any moment now).

"I think so, love," Kol answers me but still not putting me down. Its not that bad actually. He has a nice ass. Uh... Pretend I didn't just say that... Moving on...

"Ellie is it basically a stone table, with a body?" I hear Caroline ask from afar.

"Yes, it is." I yell back as Kol puts me down and I smile a sweetly sick smile at him, "Thanks for making me drowsy you jackass."

"It's my pleasure, darling." He grins and I huff turning around and finding Sila's body full of chains just like in the show. His face was all stony and grey and you couldn't make out any of his features. Quetsyah must've been pissed. Being stripped of his looks is a real shame. I mean who doesn't think Paul Wesley (as I call the group of doppelgangers to be easier) is hot? Have you seen his back? Or face? I mean...

"What now?" They ask. They didn't say the same thing nor at the same time but that sentence pretty much sums it up. I look at the body and frown.

"Do we have to kill him?" I ask them.

"WHAT?!"

"You're saying we spent all of this time working to get here and now you don't want to kill the guy?" Tyler asks bewildered.

"He's really funny and I think we'd get along," I say with a pout.

"Ellie- I - uh- Oh God." Caroline is left speechless and if I was able to do that what I'm saying must really be off the rockers. But it's Silas... I love his knock-knock jokes.

"But just picture it. A guy who looks exactly like Stefan but is actually fun." I tell them in hopes of getting them to agree.

"Ellie."

"He's like the supernatural Madonna. Who wouldn't want to meet the supernatural Maddona?" I ask them and they sigh in exasperation. "I know I would!"

"Alma, darling, we're not freeing the lunatic who'll let Hell loose on Earth," Kol tells me. "We have enough of those to last a lifetime." I look between him and the coffin for a good five minutes before sighing.

"Fine. Let's kill the cool copy of Cool Jacket." I sigh sadly (and dramatically) and they shake their heads in amusement. Again! I feel like a clown. Urgh I hate clowns. Then I proceed to take the blood bag out and make him drink a bit. Then I grab the cure which looks like a big ass pill and shoved it down his throat. Then I pick up the knife I brought and proceed to stab him in the heart a couple of times just to make sure. Then I listen to Hades' voice in my head giving me the sign that he is in fact dead and I sigh sadly again.

"Are you alright, love?" Kol asks and I nod.

"I just really wanted to meet him," I say and he smiles at me. Then I look at the others, "Everyone fine?"

"Yeah." They all answer.

"Great!" I beam at them, "Let's go back then!" As I say this Kol grabs my hand squeezing it and then Davina grabs my other hand and Caroline and Tyler joined the circle and we're out of there in a second.

"Are you sure you don't want to go with us?" I ask Care from my place in the front of the car. We were at the airport. Kol and I were dropping them off and then off we go to Oregon. More specifically Portland.

"I'm sure Ellie. Besides, you and Kol can bond." She says.

"What?" I ask genuinely confused. Why would I need them gone to bond with him?

"You're being oblivious, El. I don't know if it's because of Damon or something but it's obvious he has a thing for you." She says and I look at Kol who's talking to the other two next to the plane and unknown to me listening in on the conversation.

"Who? Damon?" I ask confused.

"No. Kol has a crush on you Ellie." She says like it's the most common fact in the world. Like the sky is blue kind of fact. Or if you eat a watermelon seed you'll grow a watermelon in your stomach. Which isn't actually inaccurate seeing as if you get a seed inside of you something the size of a watermelon will grow in you stomach.

"Yeah right." I scoff, "And you suddenly love polyester."

"I'll wear polyester if that's what it takes for you to believe me." She says and I gasp.

"You truly think he does don't you?" I ask and she nods and I shake my head, "You're probably just sick Care. There's no fucking way Kol Mikaelson has a thing for me."

"Do you?"

"Do I what?"

"Do you have a thing for him?" She asks and unbeknownst to me, Kol perked up from where he was standing.

"I... That's a good question Care. Have you thought about taking a job asking questions? What's it called?" I ask trying to steer the conversation away from myself.

"A reporter?"

"Yeah. Have you thought about being one?"

"Actually I have been thinking about- wait! You just turned this on me!" She accuses me and I smile innocently at her.

"Who? Me?" I ask and then I'm saved by Ty. God, I love him.

"Care we got to go!"

"Coming!" Caroline hollers back then turns to me with narrowed eyes, "You're not off the hook yet." And with that, she starts stalking away as Kol is coming back.

"You'll be a great reporter Care! Follow your dreams and don't eat watermelon seeds!" I yell after her and she shakes her head and flips me off getting on the plane. Then Kol goes around the car and gets in.

"Are you ready, darling? Nine days with me would make someone go mental." He says and I grin.

"Good thing I'm already mental." I say and he chuckles, "Besides if I get tired of you I'll just send you off somewhere. What do you say about the sun? It's really warm out there. Great place for sun-bathing."

"I better not tire you then."

"You know you can get tired of me too," I say and he shakes his head.

"I'd never get tired of you, love."

"That's cause you never spent nine days straight with myself," I say and he chuckles again as he starts off the car and drives off onto the road heading to Oregon. "Can I ask you something really random?"

"Ask away, Alma."

"Do you, um, have you ever wanted kids?" I ask and he chokes on his spit, "I mean you're not eighteen. You're who-knows-years-old, have you ever thought about it?"

"I spent half my life in a coffin and the other on a killing spree. So no, I haven't. It's not like I can anyways. Besides who'd want me as a father?" He asks, "I'm a psychotic maniac."

"As someone who has the God of the Underworld as a father, I can't really talk. But from what I saw of you hanging out with Hope you were a pretty good parental figure." I tell him.

"Who's Hope?"

"She's your niece. I mean she doesn't exist but she did in the other timeline."

"My niece?!"

"Santa's daughter." I grin at him and he smiles softly.

"Nick can have kids?"

"Magical loophole in the spell. It's because of his werewolf side." I tell him and he nods. "She was a tribrid. Pretty cool if you ask me."

"You're a Goddess." He deadpans and I smirk and flip my hair.

"I know." I say and he laughs, "But imagine being a witch, werewolf, and vampire? That would be so cool."

"I remember being a witch." He says thoughtfully, "I used to love magic and-"

"OH MY GOD!!" I gasp suddenly making him jerk a bit and making the car look drunk until he's stable again. "I'm so sorry Kol. I totally forgot about you're magic."

"What about it, darling? It doesn't exist anymore." He shrugs it off.

"But I can give it back!" I grin.
