"I've been having these dreams for days now. It's like the witches are trying to send me a message." Bonnie expressed.

"I just can't believe that you guys kept this from me this whole time." Elena stares at the coffins in disbelief.

"Which was a good idea until now if you ask me." I stated.

"How is that a good idea Sarai?" Elena asks giving me an annoyed look.

"Stefan thought if you knew where the coffins were, Klaus could threaten people to get the information out of you." Bonnie cuts in.

I flatten my arm out to Bonnie giving Elena an "obviously" look. Ignoring me she turned to my cousin.

"So, these are the rest of his family?" Elena asked Bonnie.

"Yeah. Elijah and two others. This one, is the one we can't open. We don't know who is in it, or whats in it, only that I think my dream's telling me it'll help us kill Klaus." Bonnie explains.

"What the hell are you doing?" The other source of my annoyance walks in. Mister Stefan Salvatore.

"I needed her to know about the coffin." Bonnie replies.

"And I needed you to keep her out of it, Bonnie."

"So what are you gonna do, Stefan? Are you gonna kidnap me, so that I won't tell anyone?" Elena buts in.

Not that bad of an idea...

"Don't tempt me, Elena." Stefan murmurs.

"I think I know, who can open the coffin, Stefan. And I need Elena to help me find her." Bonnie states.

"Find who? What are you talking about?" Stefan questioned.

"She couldn't place her face at first. Then we realized-." I added.

Bonnie walks up to Elena pulling out her phone.

"Oh my god, Bonnie." Elena gasps.

"Who is this?" Stefan asks

"It's Bonnie's freaking mom." I announced.

Bonnie, Elena and I are searching through a pile of driver license records for Bonnie's mom, Abby Bennett.

She abandoned Bonnie when she was a child. I barely got to know the women either.

Excruciatingly awkward is how this is gonna turn out.

"Los Alamitos?" Elena hands Bonnie a record with her mother's name.

"Too old." She responds.

"Honolulu?" I asked.

"I wish. How many of these are there?"

"A lot. I asked the sheriff's office to pull up every single Abby Bennett in the country." Elena answered.

"I know we haven't been able to really... That things had been weird, because of Jeremy, so, thank you for helping us with this. I know you have a lot to deal with." Bonnie said with sincerity.

"There's nothing more important, Bonnie." Elena gives a small smile.

"You got that right." I said forming a small smile of my own.

"It's surreal. Having to track down a woman, who bailed on her own kid."

My heart almost tore at words. She never truly healed from her mother leaving. As expected with all the bullshit she had to deal with up until now.
