The entire room was stunned into silence.
All of them had Bonnie's words ringing through her head.
Back in time.
Klaus is the first to speak.
"That's impossible, witch!" he shouted in denial.
That causes Bonnie to smirk at Klaus confusing him even more.
"Oh Niklaus, you have no idea what is possible."
The way she said the words caused a chill to go down everyone's backs.
Bonnie had turned back to Esther.
"Well, I'm still waiting for an answer mother-in-law."
Esther swallowed and took a deep breath.
"I had a chance to fix everything so I took it."
"Fix what?" Bonnie snapped back.
"Our family-"
That did it.
Bonnie had lunged for Esther but Kol had grabbed her having to resort to his vampire strength to hold back his angered wife.
"Our family?" Bonnie interrupted, a look of pure rage overtaking her face causing all of the Mikaelsons (except for Kol who was holding Bonnies arms and holding her to his chest) to take a step back as the room had began to shake.
"Our family was safe!" Bonnie shouted at Esther.
Kol pulled Bonnie into his chest, whispering into her ear, "Breathe, my darling. I know you're angry, I'm angry as well but shouting at her won't get your point across."
Bonnie sighed and closed her eyes trying not to give into her anger which was mainly fuelled by her worry for her kids.
The Mikaelson siblings was in shock as they watched their brother calm down the witch.
What universe had they woken up to see that their wild brother had turned suddenly into a peacemaker?
Bonnie tapped Kol's arms signalling him that she was calm, for now.
He let go of his wife but still stood by her side, in case he had to interfere again.
Bonnie's eyes remained on Esther the entire time she talked.
"Do you know what peace is Esther? It's a beautiful thing to have and not a lot of people, supernatural or not, are lucky to have it. Our family had it. This family. After decades of war and rage and blood and the suffering and the pain, we had peace. We live in a world where our children don't have to fear being supernatural or are hunted down for what they are. There is peace between all of the supernatural factions. Do you realise how unbelievable that might sound? But it's true. We finally have peace Esther. My question is why would you take that from us? Why?"
Elijah was in shock. Peace between all of the supernatural factions?
Miss Bennett was pulled from a future in which there was peace.
He turned to his siblings as she had talked about "our family".
Seeing as she had married Kol, she was part of their family.
And when she talked about her family, she meant them.
They had all found peace.
Hope bloomed inside him, stronger than ever and Elijah looked to the people in this room - his family.
And as he looked at them, he swore that the future that Miss Ben-or Mrs Mikaelson had come from, will occur.
Esther had begun talking.
"Bonnie as I said before this was a chance. My only chance to fix everything. And I am sorry for taking you and Kol from your children but you have to understand. You two are our best chance. You are the last Mikaelsons standing. All my children are gone. My daughters lived mortal and died. My sons had sacrificed themselves to save the redemption of this family."
Esther had walked to Bonnie and carefully took her hands in her own.
"I love my family Bonnie and what has happened gives you or them no reason to trust me but this is a chance to start over. And I am selfish. I couldn't lose this chance to have all of my family alive and happy."
Bonnie inhaled sharply.
She looked to see the Mikaelson siblings staring at herith curiosity.
She turned to look back at Esther staring at her.
Bonnie shook her head, "But it's not them. I can't Esther. I made my peace with them. They died Esther and yes it destroyed me. I saw Rebekah die on her bed 4 months ago, human. And now she's there standing alive as a vampire and it's taking everything within me not to hug her. But she's not my Rebekah."
"Please Bonnie," Esther pleaded, "I'm begging you to help me save my family."
Bonnie turned to look at the Mikaelson siblings standing there watching her and their mother interact.
Tears begin to well up in her eyes as she saw Rebekah.
Not a wrinkle on her face nor a string of white hair in her hair.
She could remember the scream Rebekah let out at finding a strand of her first white hair and how she had to hold her as she cried for her brothers missing them.
Bonnie turned to Esther and conceded, "Fine."
But before Esther could hug Bonnie, she held a hand up.
"But you have to tell them everything and when I say that, I mean everything after August."
Everyone was confused at that.
"Why August?" Esther asked.
Bonnie turned to see Kol who was looking at her with a knowing look.
"August is when it all begins Esther," Bonnie said before walking to Rebekah.
Rebekah was on edge when the Bennett Witch had begun to walk to her.
She's no fool.
She remembered how Ayanna was like.
And even if, this version had thought of her to be family.
Thinking back to her words, she was shocked to see how deeply Bonnie was affected by her death.
But then again if what Kol said was true at being married when he woke and the way he and Bonnie had interacted with each other made it obvious that they were married, then they must have bonded with each other.
After all, she had always wanted a sister.
So as of now it was her mission to become Bonnie's Rebekah as she had said before.
Though she did wonder why mother had used plural before if Bonnie survived.
She'll have to ask about that later as the Bennet- Bonnie had stood in front of her asking a question that excited her.
Bonnie walked upto Rebekah and asked, "How would you like to host a ball, Rebekah?"
