The Abattoir

While the children (Hope, Lucas, Adrian, Noah and Laura) were playing, they were hearing whispers. They start to look around to find out where those whispers were coming from.

Amelia, Evelyn, Hayley and Klaus noticed something is up. "Kids, what's going on?" The former asked.

"Mom? Can you hear them, too?" Hope asked her mother, as did Lucas and Adrian asked Amelia. Same with Noah and Laura.

"What's going on?" Klaus asked.

"What did you guys hear?" Amelia asked.

"Voices. They said that we're connected to this. You, Evelyn, Noah and Laura, and me." Hope told

Klaus figured it must be the bone. "If this fossil has been whispering lies, I'll gladly throw it in the river."

"Nahele. He's ready to talk to us." Lucas said.

Convenient Store and The Abattoir

Tyler and Desmond are on the phone with Klaus. "I'm on my way back to New Orleans right now. And I have good news. I went through the estate, and I found one creepy-ass, ancient finger bone. Oh and Ric tagged along with us to make sure you stay out of Mystic Falls."

Apparently Tyler's and Desmond's mission to get an old bone did not go unnoticed. They ran into Ric and let's just say they revealed a little too much info.

Klaus sighs on the phone. "Your efforts are appreciated. Now, if you lot could only pick up the pace."

Before either Tyler or Desmond can respond, Alaric beats them to it. "Easy, Klaus. The only reason I'm heading your way with these two is because I don't want you anywhere near Mystic Falls. Things tend to get murder-y when you're around."

"Well, that's a fair point. Now, Alaric, if our pleasantries have run their course..." before Klaus can hang up, Desmond brings this up.

"Hold on, one more thing. My family and The Lockwoods, they didn't just safeguard the bone... They kept records with names, dates and locations. Turns out they had knowledge of other families that were charged with guarding the rest of the remains. And it turns out that Labonair is among them."

Klaus replied. "Well that's interesting."

"I'm glad you think so. That might be a lead to help you find the rest of the remains. Which you'll have to do yourself, because my days of fighting monsters are over. Okay, so here's the deal. I will be at Jack's Bar-B-Q Shack off Route 59 until 2:00-o-clock. If you're not there by 2:10, I chuck the bone and the records in a Dumpster and I'm gone. And then you can fish them out of the trash yourself."

"Ric, be cool." Tyler told him.

"Well, I'm afraid I'll be otherwise occupied, so you'll be meeting Elijah. And of course, Marcel and Jordan. I'm sure he'll be interested in what this family has been guarding. And if, perchance, he's running late, I suggest you exercise some patience and have yourself a beer. Otherwise, you'll have a few more monsters to worry about."

The phone hangs up.

"I said you didn't have to come, Ric." Desmond told Alaric while in the back.

"Come on, you know how it is. You made me and Caroline godparents to your kids. I'll do anything to help them. And I'm also making sure Klaus doesn't step foot in town." Alaric said while in the back.

Both alpha wolves sighed, wondering if Ric is ever gonna get over it.
