The only one of his kind

Season 2: Chapter 1 two months

Previously on the only one of his kind

Nick and Maliover had an army to the Salvatore school and attacked. The hybrid got his humanity on, with the help of his parents, friends and an unknown spirit. He let Malivore use his body as a vessel, but managed to get control again. Only for Jed to take the golden arrow and stab him. The boy didn't make it. He died and everyone forgot about him. He came to the other side and was met by his uncle Stefan. The moment his uncle found him, he said to himself he was going to get the boy back home.

2 months later

3rd pov

It has been two months since Nicholas Salvatore died, sixty one days since he saw his loved ones. Since then he and Stefan has been trying to find a way for him to get back to the living world, but they haven't found much in those two months.

Nick got to know his uncle tho and he appreciate that, but the boy misses his parents, his friends and his especially his girl.

Now the two of them were in the Salvatore house looking through the books once again. Double checking if they missed something.

Nick's pov

Me and uncle Stefan had been doing some research for some time now. I don't know how long I've been here, but I do know that I miss everyone. Don't get me wrong I'm glad to get to know my uncle, but I can't stop thinking about everyone else. It's like my mind can't let go.

''Nick'', I heard my uncle yell. I looked up from the book. ''sorry uncle Stefan, I zoomed a little out''.

He sighed as he looked at me. He sat himself down next to me, patting my shoulder. ''I know how it feels kid. To wonder what's happening down there. It must be much more harder for you, when they don't remember''.

I looked away from him and onto the ground. ''I guess it's better that way. I mean there's nothing to grieve then. Like I was never there''. I noticed my uncle shook his head at the corner of my eyes.

''but you were there Nick. I know it may be easy telling yourself that, but it isn't trust me. I understand why you wanted them to forget, but I don't agree with it''. I looked up and saw he was already looking at me with sympathy in his eyes.

''I don't agree with it either, but it was for the best. They didn't need another loss in their life. I mean mom lost her parents, aunt and more. Dad lost you. Ric lost Jo. The twins lost their biological mom. Hope lost her parents and uncle. I didn't want them to feel another pain. The best solution was to make them forget''.

Stefan could see the hurt in his nephew's eyes, even though he tried to hide it.

''come on kid''. Stefan Salvatore motioned for his nephew to follow him. ''why? Where are we going?'', the boy asked. He smiled towards him. ''you'll see. Now come''.

The boy stood up on his feat and walked with his uncle.

They walked out the door.

The moment Nick felt the sunlight on him, he closed his eyes.

''Hope come on. You can't obsess over that ring. We already discussed this''. Upon hearing his headmaster and god's father voice, he opened up his eyes.

He was in his office and it was still the same. The boy looked to his side and saw his uncle. ''what is this?''. The older man nodded to him. ''I know I said to you before it wasn't easy to go down here, but truth is. I kind of hoped you wouldn't be here so long even though I said it was going to be a long road. I hoped I'd find a way to get you home''.

Nick raised his eyebrows at his uncle. Stefan gave him a sade smile. Nick sighed. ''I understand. I guess i'd do the same''.

''but mr Saltzman. It has to mean something. I mean was it a coincidence that it was there when we defeated Malivore''. Nick looked to the belonging voice. ''Hope'', he whispered.

Hope felt something strange as someone was in the room with them. Alaric noticed. ''what is it now?''. ''I feel like we're not alone''. The headmaster shook his head. ''Hope look. This has to stop. I already talked with Elena and Damon. They don't know someone with the initials with N Salvatore. I thought you were done with this Hope. You're a teenager. Go and have fun. Party with your friends and boyfriend. Malivore is gone and that ring doesn't add up. Just let it go''.

Nick's eyes widened at his headmaster's statement. ''boyfriend?''. Stefan catched up to that and gave him a squeeze. ''sorry kid''. The boy shakes his head. ''no, hey she deserves to be happy'', he said trying to smile but inside he felt his heart break.

Hope scoffed at her headmaster. ''I am done with this, I just thought since it's been two months. I figured out...''. ''figured out what Hope? I'm sorry but I haven't. The ring is just a ring. We don't know how it ended up here nor know we who it is''.

Hope bit her lower lip. ''yeah sorry. You're right, it's just a ring''. Alaric sighed. ''look Hope I really wish I had some answers but I don't, I'm sorry. Whoever this N Salvatore was, no one remembers''. ''you think he helped us defeat Malivore?''. He shrugged. ''maybe, maybe not. Maybe he even was a puppet to Malivore. Look let's just drop it for the last time and move on''.

Hope nodded. ''you're right. I have to go studying with the other's''.

The tribrid walked out the door and passed her former lover. She stopped mid way and looked back. She shook her head and went out.

Nick looked at her walking away, then he took his gaze back to the headmaster.

Alaric took his whiskey bottle that he had hidden in his drawer. He looked at the ring on his table and picked it up. He examined the ring. ''who are you?''.

Nick smiled sadly at the man. ''someone you saw as your own son''. Stefan heard and he took the boy's shoulder tapping him. The hybrid looked at him. ''close your eyes''. He did.

Suddenly they were back at the Salvatore house.

Nick opened up his eyes and understood they were back. He sat down and laid his head back, letting it hit the wall.

''look Nick. We will get you back don't worry''. ''why? I mean they are kind of happy without me''. ''they aren't Nick, you just saw that''. ''I don't know what I saw''.

Nick stood up and walked away. Stopping mid way through the door. ''I'm going to lay down for a bit uncle Stefan. See you later'', then he walked out.

Stefan sighed in defeat. He looked at the ground and noticed a book, he hadn't seen before. He picked it up and examined the book. The title was the one that catched his eye. ''what the hell is a necromancer?''.
