A/N:  We've reached the end of this lovely story. Still debating epilogue. I know that I lost a lot of people by deciding to include Davina in this story. But I would hope that you all still enjoyed my writing and story telling. I hope you all continue to come with me on this journey through the multiverses. I love all my readers! Thank you for the support!

There was a flash of light and they were back with everyone. Freya grinned so widely. "It worked," she said. Hope had tears falling down her face.

"It worked! Dad it worked!" Hope said then went to hug her father. Klaus looked over her shoulder to Persephone and mouthed 'thank you'. She nodded and hugged her husband.

"So what now?" Persephone held out the ascendant.

"We destroy it," she said to them all.

They took it to the middle of the courtyard and Persephone smashed it to pieces. "It can't have been that easy," Kol said. But Persephone scoffed.

"Excuse you. It took ten years to build that device and now I have destroyed it and the plans." She burned the pieces and her research.

"I'm sorry, Aunt Persephone. I know how important your research is to you," Hope said from next to her father.

"It's fine. All to save my family. Now the only way to get that magic out is in my head."

"Is that safe?"

"Well I could try to put it behind the red door. Your mothers memory locking spell."

"Might be for the best. You'll have more creations. More experiments." Kol told her.

"I'll never be able to thank you enough," Klaus said.

"And you'd never have to. We're family."

There was a small celebration dinner before Kol and Persephone headed back to Middleton. They missed their girls. "It's hard to believe all that's happened," Persephone told him as she was waking up the next day. They'd be in Middleton in less than two hours.

"I can't believe my family has lived a thousand years yet we've been most eventful in the past decade. But there's so much to look forward to. Now that things should slow down."

"That's true. Like watching our girls grow up?"

"And us growing old,"

"Us? Well I suppose you are looking quite scruffy lately. Very Dad like," she said, looking over at him. 

"You don't like?" he asked, touching his beard.

"I didn't say you weren't still hot. I'd very much still hop up on that," she said, sounding out every word slowly. He rolled his eyes at her. 

"You are so corny."

"You barely learned that word! No more Grace teaching you slang!" They playfully argued all the way home.
