Yelena sighed as she woke from her dream, the unsettling images still fresh in her mind. This time, it was the sacrifice with Niklaus, but with a different twist—it was just her and two other people.

She had been having these visions for a while now, each one featuring different combinations of people she knew and strangers. Caroline, Jenna, Enzo, Matt, Tyler—the list went on. Yelena had done everything in her power to ensure that it would be just her and two strangers in the final iteration. Yet, uncertainty gnawed at her. When would they come?

"Why don't you just contact them yourself?" Enzo's voice interrupted her thoughts. Yelena sighed again, feeling the weight of her doubts. "I don't want to mess anything up," she admitted quietly.

Enzo raised an eyebrow, a hint of impatience in his tone. "Who cares? You've already changed some things. Why not just mess it all up?" he suggested bluntly.

Yelena fidgeted nervously, her mind racing with conflicting thoughts. "I don't know. What if I'm not ready?" she wondered aloud, her voice tinged with anxiety.

"You are more than ready. And the earlier you meet them, the earlier you can give your power to Kol," Enzo reminded her, his words firm and reassuring.

"I know, but..." Yelena began, but Enzo cut her off with a shake of his head. "Post your ad on Craigslist," he advised before leaving her to contemplate her decision.

Yelena hesitated for a moment before opening her laptop, her fingers hovering over the keyboard. "Just do it," she muttered to herself, mustering the resolve to proceed.

MISSED CONNECTION in Virginia

You're the second oldest son of the Original residents of my hometown and you have a thing for suits. Your younger half-brother thinks your older brother is a bore and that he's never outside the box. You are also quite a bit older than you look, and I look just like the first woman you ever loved. Please meet me in the place where your mother died this Saturday at sundown.

Yelena G.

With a final click, she sent the message into the digital ether, feeling a mix of apprehension and relief. "Hmm, maybe I'll get some peace soon," she mused to herself, closing her laptop and hoping for the best.
