"Caroline, do you really think this is a good idea?" Bonnie asked calmly as she watched her friend speed around her room to get dressed and ready to go. She hadn't really expected Caroline to act differently, but Bonnie didn't feel like getting caught between Klaus and Caroline, when they in a few minutes would storm into the Mikaelson townhouse; Bonnie more or less dragged after Caroline.

"Oh, you mean like you and Stefan agreeing that keeping Elena in Klaus' cellar for over two months was a good idea?" Caroline hissed back and Bonnie sighed as she tried to clean up the mess Caroline had made in her tantrum. Needlessly to say Caroline had become angry, when Bonnie told her Elena had been locked up for the last couple of months with her friends' consent.

"I told you that there was nothing else we could do. Her humanity is off and she was starting getting rabid like the last time. We can't get her to tell why she turned off her emotions and she won't turn them back on either. And Klaus don't care. I think that he finds it amusing actually." Bonnie explained again, not sure that Caroline was even listening.

"Bastard!" Caroline sneered as she quickly pulled on a pair of ankle boots and then looked at Bonnie, ready to go yell at the Original hybrid.

Once again Bonnie almost smiled even though it was highly inappropriate. Caroline looked ready for a fight with her damp hair – from the shower she had just taken, breaking all records for hastiness – in a high ponytail, a military green button-up satin shirt and black skinny jeans.

"You probably shouldn't call him that." Bonnie quickly told Caroline, remembering what Kol had said about certain topics that were sensitive to Klaus. "Esther – Klaus' mother – slept with another man, while she was married to Mikael and gave birth to Klaus. Mikael hated his bastard son and hunted him for a millennium before Klaus killed him. It was actually outside Tyler's house at the dance. Tyler sedated you so you wouldn't be harmed as we were trying to kill Klaus and... well, it's kind of complicated."

Bonnie stopped her storytelling, when she realized that Caroline probably had no memory of Tyler being sired to Klaus or that Stefan was the one who stopped Damon from killing Klaus, giving the hybrid the opportunity to drive the white oak stake through Mikael instead.

Caroline froze in place and stared at Bonnie with wide eyes as a small piece of Klaus' family history was revealed to her. She then remembered what Klaus had said about his mother, who had tried to kill her children and Caroline felt how her stomach dropped, making her fiery anger subside a little.

"Right, sensitive subject. Got it. Now let's go." Caroline spoke and was already out of the door and walking down the stairs. Bonnie ran after her with a sigh and pulled out her phone to text a warning to Stefan.

She had grown close to the youngest Salvatore ever since she had been back from the dead and he was part of the reason Bonnie had chosen to stay in New Orleans. Other than that she had nowhere else to go and she knew that Caroline was coming back, so she had patiently waited for her.

"Care, maybe you should try to calm down a little before you just knock down the door. Not that I wouldn't enjoy watching Klaus getting his ass kicked, but everything would go a lot easier if you refrained from screaming at him." Bonnie called after Caroline as she walked a few feet behind the leggy blonde, who was marching towards the Mikaelson townhouse with a determined look on her face.

"Where is the Bonnie, who wasn't afraid to take on any vampire and was fearless as hell?" Caroline mused over her shoulder as they continued down the street, receiving both irritated glares and admiring second glances. Bonnie's eyes glided over the people passing by as the feeling of being followed intensified and she knew that Klaus probably already knew they were coming. At least that gave him time to prepare to meet the blonde amazon.
