My heartbeat started to race up when I heard the familiar voice of the regent. "It's time!" She said and I looked around and my breath went faster.

As I looked around Freya nodded at me

As I looked around Freya nodded at me. "I need time to say goodbye, Sophia." I whispered and faced the Mikaelsons. Well and also, Marcel, Vincent, Davina and Keelin. Freya, Keelin and Hayley went upstairs, because they knew what I was about to do.

"Olivia..." Klaus whispered. I shaked my head briefly and he suddenly cupped my cheeks in his hands softly. "Please, stay alive." I chuckled, with tears in my eyes and nodded. "I'll try." I said in a lower voice. He chuckled, too, and I looked up to him. "Thank you, for all the things you've done for me. For saving and protecting me." I felt the tears running down my cheeks. "And I will continue to do so, I promise." I nodded, knowing he would anything to keep me safe. And he did. But I can't keep him safe like this. Not anymore. "I know you would." I whispered in a voice that matched my face. Sad and devastated.

Before he could say anything I crashed my lips onto his. One of the few things I needed to do before I leave. I wrapped my arms around his neck and he pulled me closer to him. He and I synced perfectly. It was amazing and I never wanted it to end. But then, reality set in and I pulled away. I opened my eyes and looked into his. All I could see was love, want and sadness together.

I stept away and took deep breaths, watching every one of them with one last look. Trying to keep their faces in my head. I swallowed and removed the tears from my cheeks. Then I did the one thing I knew it would keep them safe and I empty. "You will forget me. Every part of mine in your life will be like it never even existed. You will keep going, but without me. You will forget Sara and Sophia. And Meridial and the revilas. It will be like I've never existed. Like I was never born. And so it shall be till I decide to break that spell. To break that vow. If you ever hear the name 'Olivia Hale' you will ignore and forget it. From that moment on I will be a stranger and only that to all of you. Olivia Hale shall be no familiar name to any of you." I ended my very own compulsion with a sigh. I looked at them and saw in their eyes that something changed. Some of them became even less brighter than they were before. But when I looked into the face of my love, Klaus, all I could see was the blank void.

"Olivia." Sophia pleaded and I nodded. "Goodbye, my love." I repeated his nickname for me and smiled sadly at him. All of them still seem to be under the influence of the magic. "We will see eachother again. I promise you." I whispered and turned around. I jumped through the portal and when I arrived in my bed chambers at the castle I was tiny moment away from breaking down. I felt the void. But on the other way it feels like he wasn't there at all.

Some maids me ready for the race, giving me a elastic black suit for it. It had no special features or anything. I guess it was okay. I felt numb because of the bond Klaus and I share. It was still there, but now it just felt different than before. I wiped out any memories of me from all of them. Clearly it left a mark. With two fingers I touched my lips, I couldn't realise what I've done. I kissed him and then took away any memory of me from him. Just to make sure they'll stay alive. That they will stay safe, as far as they could be, of course.
