Epilogue

"Give me a second I,

I need to get my story straight

My friends are in the bathroom getting higher than the Empire State

My lover she's waiting for me just across the bar

My seat's been taken by some sunglasses asking 'bout a scar, and

I know I gave it to you months ago

I know you're trying to forget

But between the drinks and subtle things

The holes in my apologies, you know

I'm trying hard to take it back

So if by the time the bar closes

And you feel like falling down

I'll carry you home

Tonight

We are young

So let's set the world on fire

We can burn brighter than the sun."

-F.U.N. FT Janelle Monáe, We Are Young

Saltzman House, Devon England, 2021

Stefan Salvatore's knocked against the wooden door of the house which was placed in one of the more pricey area's in Devon. He felt someone squeeze his hand, he turns his head to see Elena. Elena didn't look a day over twenty, but that mainly was because she was created into a vampire on her twentieth birthday after she and Stefan had married. Of course Damon wasn't happy about the marriage but he was proud of his little brother of finding peace within himself and another.

They knocked again because no one answered. A few moments later a little girl answers the door dressed in a pink tutu. "Hello." She says softly.

Stefan and Elena share a look before Elena begins to speak. "Hello, is Alaric Saltzman in?"

The little girl looks at the two vampires for a few moments, analysing them both before speaking once more. "Yes, I'll go get him." She says before turning round and running down her hallway crying out for Daddy.

Stefan looks at Elena. "Alaric's a Dad?"

Elena looks at Stefan with a smile. "I'm glad."

An older looking Alaric appears in the door way clutching the girl in his arms, he looks at the doorway shocked to see his old students and friends, not looking a day older, in Devon and his new family home. He smiles. "Elena... Stefan... Come in."

-Hybrid Twin-

The three adults were seated around a table, Stefan and Elena idly chatted with Alaric about what had happened over the last few years. When Alaric left after Ely's death he fled to England for a new start, gaining a new teaching role in a school which then he fell in love with one of his fellow teachers who he ended up marrying. Now he had a six year old daughter, Elyzabeth named after Ely whom Alaric's new wife knew all about, and he had a four month old boy named Henry. Alaric didn't seem to surprised to hear of Elena and Stefan's marriage he always knew it was going to happen, but when he didn't know.

After a cup of tea each Alaric asked the million dollar question.

"Why are you here? Don't get me wrong it's good to see you but why?"

The two vampires shared a look before Stefan began to speak. "Ely asked me to give you this a while back..." He took a folded piece if paper from his pocket and handed it to Alaric.

Alaric took the paper in his hand nervously, he nodded in thanks towards Stefan and opened it out to find it was a letter with drawings littering the paper showing a detailed images of someones life from birth to dead. It was Elyzabeth's life line. He swallowed and began to read.

'Alaric,

If you're reading this it means you've done what I had always wished you to do. Move on with your life and live it to its fullest. You most likely have a girlfriend or maybe even wife with or without children. But that's all I wanted you to do.

I wanted you to live a mortal life, not an immortal one like myself. You now can live, love and die with freedom. More freedom than I had and ever will have in any life.

I love you with all my heart and soul Ric, but love and be taken chopped and changed and I wish and hope that what happened never changed you for a negative out look. Now you live your life to the full.

Love your children like I could never with Henrick. And love them will all your will power and soul, my love.

God speed with your mortal life,

With all my love,

Elyzabeth Mikaelson.'

Alaric wiped a tear from his cheek and looked up to Stefan and Elena with a smile. "Thank you." He said with a broken voice.

"It's the least we could do, Ric. We all owe you so much." Elena says standing up and giving him a hug and kiss on the cheek.

Stefan's ears pick up a car pulling into the drive way, Alaric's wife. "We have to go Ric, your wife's here. But good luck with life."

Alaric smiles, putting the letter in his pocket. "You too, Stefan. I'll most likely see you before I my death I hope."

"Agreed." Stefan says before leaving the house with Elena. They both watch as Alaric greets his wife home with a hug and kiss and a joyful smile for his young son. They were both over joyed that Alaric was moving on with his life making a new one for himself as he should. Stefan takes his phone out of his pocket and dials the number.

"Its done." Stefan says to the person on the other line.

"Thank you Stefan." The voice of a women replies.

"No problem, but I have one question to ask."

"What?" The voice replies.

"Why?" Stefan asks.

"Because it was meant to be." The voice says sadly.

"Right. Goodbye Ely." Stefan says softly.

"Goodbye Stefan." The soft sad voice of Elyzabeth Mikaelson replies and hangs up.

-(a/n) So Ely isn't dead but she wanted Alaric to life a normal mortal life after she left :,) naw, I hoped you liked the ending because I enjoyed writing this! So leave your comments of your views upon this story and the ending:)) thanks,
