The next morning the five friends were back in the car after they ate breakfast, they were about an hour from the Abattoir and Gemma found herself getting more and more excited. 

"I really wish you would go faster!" Gemma told Stefan with a smile.

"Sweetheart, if he goes any faster we will most likely get pulled over." Enzo told her from the back seat. 

"I know. I'm just excited!" she smiled brightly, "time manipulation would come in handy right now. Speed it up and bam we would be there."

"No. We will be there in forty-five minutes according to the gps. You're fine. Text Marcel or someone." Gemma huffed loudly and stared out the window.

Thirty minutes, a short thirty minutes later they were pulling up to the abattoir. Her eyes went bright when she saw daywalkers walking around the compound, she didn't bother to wait for her friends before using her speed to run inside. She stopped when she saw Marcel, his eyes widen and smiled before jumping over the balcony and embracing her in a hug.

"Well, look what we have here!" he rang happily.

"Thanks for waiting for us, Gem. Don't worry we'll get your bag." Caroline said aloud. Marcel and Gemma let go of each other and she used her speed to get all the bags and put them on the ground.

"There you go, Care." she said with a smirk, "I got all the bags. Wouldn't want you to exert yourself." Gemma heard Klaus' laughter behind her and she saw Stefan move protectively in front of her.

"Don't worry, Stefan. I would never hurt, Gemma."

"Doesn't mean, I trust you." Stefan warned before introducing himself to Marcel

"Gemma?!" 

"Hayley!" the two girls ran to each other, with an equal amount of speed before embracing each other.  Gemma pulled her away and took in everything new that had happened to her best friend. The hybrid standing in front of her. She ran her hand through her hair and hugged her again, kissing her cheek, "where's Hope?"

"Asleep in the nursery." Klaus said as he joined the two girls and pulled Gemma into a hug. The hug was awkward seeing as the last time they'd seen each other was when they slept together. Enzo was making his rounds, flirting with random girls. Gemma begin searching Rebekah's face, but couldn't find her, "she is at the bakery. The baker apparently got your cake wrong and she was going to raise hell."

"Oh jesus." Stefan joined the trio and intertwined his fingers with Gemma's. He stared at Klaus with hatred, "behave. Both of you."

"I'm not doing anything, love."

"Just don't provoke him." Gemma warned, "I want this weekend to go smoothly. I don't need the bullshit." she told the two men before being pulled away from them by Marcel who was now taking her over to Davina.

"Gemma, you remember Davina. Right?"

"Of course. The super witch." Gemma said with a smile, "how are you doing?"

"I'm doing better. I just wanted to thank you for bringing Tim back. I never got to before. I'm just really appreciative." 

"It's not a problem. He was my first." she gave me a look, "resurrection. I was my second."

"You died?"

"I did. Choking on blood."

"You never told me that." Marcel said clearly upset.

"It was a couple days I found out I was pregnant. I can't consume blood. I've been on a strict human diet for six months."

"You haven't fed in six months?" Klaus said joining them.
