"LONG TIME NO SEE, OLD FRIEND" SHE SPOKE, SURPRISING THE NOBLE ORIGINAL. As of now, he thought he had seen almost anything but he was definitely proved wrong. He ceased almost all breathing and allowed his mouth to stand agape. She put a nervous smile on her delicate features, not knowing how he would react. Surely we would question what the hell is going on and try to kill her on the spot.

But, instead he did something she thought was out of the window.

He hugged her for dear life. She hugged right back, embracing his warm yet drunken embrace. He pulled away from her after he finally realized she was completely and utterly real. "H-How is this possible? We saw--I saw you--"

"Yes, you did but I can explain everything. Well actually most of it is already explained except for one little little detail"

"What do you mean?"

"Niklaus doesn't remember, obviously" she replied, as if she was stating the complete truth in the open.

"Wait--you-you mean, he didn't recognize you?" he asked in surprise.

"Well, yeah, he didn't. He's not supposed to!"

"Well, he should have! You should had been impossible to forget!" he snaps, showing how much it was now affecting him.

"Look, the plan originally worked but there have been...anomalies"

"What kind of anomalies?"

"I've been talking to Klaus for about a few months now and the thing is, I've been here the whole time"

"Please explain before I tear my own head off?"

"Fine. Short story is I've been talking, hanging out with him and he does not remember a single thing. And, ever since our 'plan' worked, I've seen what happened over time" she replies, causing him to take another sip of his very own strong drink.

"How long?"

"Maybe about...5, 4 centuries, give or take"

"For god's sake..."

"Hey, not an ideal sitaution, 'Lijah, I get that. But, what do we do now? Huh? Everything is complicated and we can't just fix it. Hell, even you can't!"

"I know that! But, what if we can make it better, not fix it?"

"The hell is that supposed to mean?"

"Our "plan" is done and over with. Now, we can make things better, hopefully"

"English, Elijah, english" she deadpans, not knowing what he's getting at.

"We bring you back, permanently. As of now, you aren't....complete"

"I think that's the dumbest plan you've had and that includes Rome"
