Holly's POV
It's been two weeks since Papa Elijah and I left Mystic Falls. Uncle Nik managed to get us unlinked. Which turns out was just in time as Elena and her friends killed Finn. Turns out Matt did it. I'm a little annoyed they dragged him into it. But I'm glad he is ok.
Matt and I have stayed in contact. Texting mostly. As he wouldn't answer my calls. He's the one who has kept me updated on things in Mystic Falls. Like the fact about Esther's indestructible creation Alaric and his white oak stake. About Klaus being desiccated.
I told Papa Elijah. He decided it was time to return to Mystic Falls. For two reasons. One to releave Alaric of his weapon and two to collect Klaus' body. We'd then run with Rebekah and Kol allowing to live the rest of her natural human life. When she dies, so will Alaric and then we'll be free again.
Anyway, we arrive at Elena's house and Papa Elijah knocks. Elena answers the door and looks at us surprised. "Stefan" she says and he appears behind her.
"Holly, Elijah" he says as Matt joins them.
"Hello again" Papa Elijah says.
"Hi Matt, surprise" I say with a smile. Papa Elijah and I are invited in. The others call Damon as we gather in the kitchen.
"All we need is to take that stake away from him. Once he's been disarmed, the weapon's in my possession, my family will scatter to the ends of the Earth and Alaric will follow us" Papa Elijah tells them.
"And you'll just run?" Stefan asks.
"We've done it before. Klaus and Rebekah spent the better part of a thousand years evading my father. What's another half century while Elena is able to live out the rest of her natural life?" Papa Elijah asks.
"We've finally stopped him, Elijah. After everything that he's done to us, I can't just let you bring him back" Elena tells him.
"We won't" I assure her.
"I give you my word, Elena. I will not revive Klaus within yours nor even within your children's lifetimes. Perhaps that will finally teach him some manners" Papa Elijah states.
"Why should she trust you? All you've done is screw her over" Matt states.
"My papa is a man of his word Matt, he never breaks it unless it's a life or death situation" I state.
"And for that, I am deeply ashamed. But know this, she could have been dead the instant I walked through that door tonight with Holly. So Elena, I leave it to you to make the decision whether to trust me or not" Papa Elijah tells her.
"Not! Hello? Did that concussion give you brain damage?! His lunatic siblings will kill you the first chance they get!" Damon exclaims over the phone.
"Rebekah and Kol will honor the terms. If you return Klaus' body to us, Elena will come to no harm" Papa Elijah assures them.
"Papa Elijah is the oldest and they respect his decision" I add.
"Do we have a deal?" he asks.
"No! No, no, no, no! Did I mention no?" Damon asks and we ignore him.
"Elena, it's up to you" Stefan tells her.
"Oh, come on!" Damon complains.
"Why do you want Klaus' body?" Elena asks us.
"He's my brother. We remain together" he tells her.
"We have a deal" she tells us and I smile.
"Wonderful, Damon text me where to meet you. Rebekah and I will see you there" I tell him.
