THE WOODS LAY DESOLATE BROKEN ONLY BY HER QUIET FOOTSTEPS. Her mind was in turmoil as she thought with herself. She knew that nothing but pain could come from the Mikaelson's. But could she count Hope as one of them? She still couldnt completely believe that her sister was here wanting a chance to know her.

When they were younger she had always wanted to be close with Hope but her father forbade it. One time they had been playing by the stream, they had been young maybe on four or five. Hope she tripped cutting the knee. When Klaus had found out he struck her across the face for hurting Hope. They weren't allowed to play after that.

A branch cracked behind her and she spun. Heart stuttering nervously. "Hello?" She called warily. She knew it was stupid it could be a murderer, Pennywise but it could also be one of her friends.

There was a still silence as her nerves grew. She furrowed her brows glaring out. "I have a taser and I know how to use it!"

A laugh sounded from behind her, eyes widening she spun around uneasy at who she saw. Kol Mikaelson had the same cocky smirk he always had on. Discomfort filled her. Davina his wife sent her husband a disapproving look before sending a gentle smile her way.

"What do you want?" Bea asked tiredly. Honestly she should have known they would all start trying to talk to her again.

Kol raised an eyebrow stepping closer as she watched her a look in his eyes she couldn't read. "What no hello for your favourite uncle?"

"It's not a hard competition. You the uncle who was never there. Or Elijah who treated me like gum stuck to his shoe." Bea retorted fed up. She knew it wasn't entirely fair to be rude to Kol. In the grand scheme of things he didn't exactly do anything wrong.

He'd barely visited, but it wasn't because of her. When he was there he was distant with both her and Hope. The only times he had visited had been to fight with Klaus.

Kol frowned regret flashing on his face. Bea sighed looking away from him. She walked away from them hearing them whispering behind her.
"Are you going to come with me or follow out of sight like stalkers?"

She didn't wait to see their reactions turning and walking further before she could regret her decision. She didn't know why she invited them.

The silence was tense as the traveled on. Kol's eyes boring into her head desperate to talk to her but not wanting to be shot down. Davina didn't have the same reservations. Bea had only met her once properly. She was a nice woman if not a little pushy.

"Why the woods?" She called curiously sharp eyes looking around. Bea glanced back at her shaking her head. "Just wait." She told them. "You'll see."

The undergrowth hung down in front of them. Long draping leaves covering a large willow tree engulfing it. Pushing them to the side gently Bea ducked in. Small flowers were sprouted along the path. She heard Davina gasp in awe as they followed her. She looked at them lips twitching as she saw the pure joy on her uncles face. She had never seen him smile like that before.
