Hayley is sitting cross-legged on the floor in Elijah's bedroom as she read one of Elijah's thick, leather-bound journals.

Elijah:(voiceover)"August 1359.I have noticed a difference in my siblings. Our bond strains beneath the pressure of our life as vampires. Each day removes them further from the humanity we once possessed. My sweet sister, Rebekah, has grown quite indifferent to brutality"

In a flashback to the previous chapter, Rebekah is seen viciously killing the vampires who tried to attack Hayley in the French Quarter.

Elijah:(voiceover)"However, the true problem remains my brother, Niklaus"

In a flashback to the previous evening, Klaus can be seen pouring gasoline over the bodies of the nightwalkers Rebekah killed to protect the girl, which are piled up in the front yard of the Mikaelson Mansion.

Elijah:(voiceover)"He continues to hide his loneliness with cruelty. Still, I cling to the hope that I, as their eldest brother, can lead them down the correct path, a path charged with the power of a family united. For if I fail, our family's legacy will end in darkness.

Outside in the Plantation, Elena is walking along the edge of the pool her arms around her small bump. It had only been a few days and she already missed Elijah like crazy...Shaking her head, Elena frowns. 

No, bad Elena, haven't you learnt with Stefan and Damon? Dating vampires is bad for you...She sighs, her head turns as her doe brown eyes gazes at the deep blue soft ripples of the pool.

In the trees a man watches with a sneer as he goes to leap at Elena but a blury figure zooming past taggles him to the ground. The two figures twist and struggle against each other before the second won pinning the man to the ground.

"How dare you try to attack her!" The figure on top hisses at the man, her stawbary blonde hair a mess do to the struggle.

The man who turns out to be the ghost of Kol Mikaelson sneers. "That little wenches brother killed me!" 

"You touch my niece and the last of your problems will be the fact that your dead." 

Kol glares at the woman he tilts his head as he scans her over finding her familiar...Where has he seen her face before. "Who the bloody hell even are you?"

"I'm the bitch that you just pissed off." The woman says before speeding off as she takes a soft glance over at Elena who looked up as she left as if she felt someone there.

The ghost glares confused and curses as he sees Hayley come out to the back with Elijah's  journal in her hand. "Damn...Your in luck today Elena gilbert...But that luck will run out eventually..." Kol grumbles annoyed that his path to revenge will have to be put on hold. He turns and huffs, glaring at the path the female ghost took. "Now who the hell was that..." He mutters as he speeds off himself.

Elena had felt someone looking at her but when she looked up no one was there. Whatever that feeling was it wasn't one of fear or paranoia, It felt soft and warm...Like a security blanket. Elena snaps out of her trance when she notices Hayley walking towards her. 

"...What do you want?" Elena asks coldly, still angry at the older brunette for what she was trying to do a few nights before.

Hayley shifts uncomfortable and looks down almost guilty. "I-I..." She sighs and turns her head away. "I wanted to say sorry...I shouldn't of tired to do that. Not the first time or the second time."

An apology? Elena's brows raise in surprise. That was the last thing she expected from the older woman in front of her. With a sigh the young doppelganger wolf turns her body completely and faces Hayley. "It's fine I suppose. I can understand why you would do it, you were an orphan and literally everyone hates Klaus, hell even his own siblings at times. But I don't think you understood what you could of lost Hayley."
