I had finally remembered Elijah. With this, I also remembered Jesse. He did come back, but I was naive to think that back in 1864 he did not use me. I now knew that Elijah had truly done everything in his power to keep me safe from him. To keep my heart safe.

I walked back into the Boarding House relaxed. I had gotten the answers I wanted, but where was everyone? I noticed that the house so silent that you could hear a pin drop. I ran around the house, looking for any sign of movement. When I looked in the library, I found no one, but I saw my grimorie opened to a spell. The spell was to bring someone back to life. Who was here?

I felt my senses tingling, and I instantly knew. Vampire. But it was not anyone that I was familiar with. I tried calling Stefan, but there was no answer, so I rang Damon. "Speak of the devil. Sydney! Just the girl we were chatting about." a british voice spoke. I did not recognize his voice. "Who are you, and what have you done to my brothers?" I said angrily. This guy was seriously pissing me off.

"My name is Mikeal, and your brothers are not the only ones with me at the moment." He taunted me. This guy was cocky. "Sydney, don't listen to a word he says!" I heard Damon say. "What do you want?" I repeated. I heard Mikeal smile over the phone. "Hmm...I'm not sure...let me ask my company. Children, is there anything you would like to say to the witch?" He asked.

Children? I heard murmurs and growls from 5 different male voices. "Don't touch her. I will tear you limb from limb." Niklaus. "Please, don't father, we'll do anything." Rebekah? I just realized what he meant by children, the originals. No! At this, my anger peaked. "What do you want with them?" I demanded. I could hear Stefan grunting in the background, most likely being tortured. My eyes went wide with horror.

"I want justice." He stated. My anger exploded into rage at this point, I had to control myself. "What can I do to get them back?" I gritted through my teeth. I heard Mikeal laugh. "You won't be able to." And with that, Mikeal hung up the phone.

I tracked him. Using my blood, I located my brothers to the exact tomb where I killed Esther. Just in case, I muttered a spell that would bring me back to life, hopefully, I would not need it. I kicked the door open, but I knew Mikeal and everyone else already knew of my arrival. What I looked at was horrifying. I saw my brothers and the Originals chained to the walls of the tomb. They were all weak, I could tell. My brothers and the Originals were battered and bloody, how could Mikeal do this to his own children?

He looked surprised to see that I was able to find them. "Your courage is fascinating. You would do anything for them, wouldn't you?" He questioned me. I nodded. Get out of here, my head screamed at me, but I did not give into it this time. I stood my ground, Mikeal's eyes watching me with curiosity. I heard all of the vampires groggily come out of their internal hell. They all froze when they saw me standing there with Mikeal circling me. "Good, you're all up." Mikeal said. Elijah growled, clearly not amused by Mikeal's antics.

"C'mon, make your plea." He said to me. I stood tall, not letting my fear show. "You want justice?" I started. Mikeal was fascinated by my question, I could tell, so I went on. "Kill me." Hearing this, all of the vampires in the room were shocked. "No." Elijah, Rebekah, Damon and Stefan all pleaded at the same time. Meanwhile, Kol and Klaus were making threats. Mikeal just smirked evilly, deep in thought.

"Damon and Stefan are my brothers. Rebekah's my best friend. Kol and I traveled together for 48 years. Elijah taught me everything I know. And Niklaus...Niklaus and I cared each other. So, if you want justice, kill me. Get back at them by having them feel what you felt when Klaus killed your wife." I ended. "You...you remember me?" Rebekah whispered, making sure I could hear her. I smiled, "Some things are coming back," I said and looked at Niklaus, "But, most things do not." I could see hope in Rebekah's eyes when I said that, and that was all I ever wanted her to have.

I turned my gaze towards Mikeal and spoke, "But in return, release them. And do not touch my brothers ever again." I demanded. Mikeal smiled and took out his hand for my to shake, "We have an accord." He kissed my knuckles, and before I knew it he was pushing me up against the wall, choking me. I tried drowning out everyone's cries, only focusing on the man in front of me. "Forgive me." He whispered in my ear. After that, everything went black.

Damon POV

The bastard killed her. So, I was going to kill him, and I would not be delicate about it either; I would draw it out, making him beg for it. My baby sister, the only person keeping my humanity in check at this point, made a deal with the devil. He did release us from the chains, but only to put Stefan and I in a cage. The bastard even kept her body in front of us all; I could not bear to look at her, We did this to her, she wouldn't be here if it wasn't for us. Mikeal left us for an hour to go feed on some vampire. We had vervain in our system, so thankfully, Stefan and I weren't suitable candidates for blood donation.

Once he was gone, I looked around. Everyone's faces were stained with tears, even Klaus'. He really did love her, didn't he. What wasn't to love? She was the best person I had ever had the pleasure of spending time with. My sister, the valiant. I took a good look at her body. Were her eyes twitching? Sydney opened her eyes. Never in my entire existence had I been so relieved to see her beautiful blue eyes open.

She looked around, making sure Mikeal wasn't in her vicinity. She turned and gazed at Stefan and I, and smiled. Sydney put one finger on her lips, motioning for us not to speak. She stood up, and took in her surroundings. I heard a twig snap in the distance and I mouthed to her that someone was coming. Mikeal. She hid in the corner of the tomb, hidden by the coffin. I couldn't hear her heartbeat anymore, and I could not see her either, I figured it was a spell she used.

He walked in, and acted as if nothing happened, but he quickly saw that her body was gone. "What happened?" He yelled. This woke the sleeping Originals from their slumber. I internally smirked, and I could tell that Stefan was as proud of our baby sister as I was. But what I did not expect was what happened next. My sister reappeared in the back of Mikeal and plunged the white oak stake in his back, muttering a spell. Was she killing him?! She knows the consequences of what she's doing! No! 

Veins started to form on Mikeal's graying face, and I could tell that when he hit the ground, he was dead, hopefully for good. I could tell that she was in pain now, the affects of triggering the curse in full force now as she hit the floor. Stefan and I couldn't get out of the cage to help her. Sticking her hand out to us, the cage magically opened, and the Original's chains were off. Everyone went at full vampire speed to help Sydney.

"What the hell happened?" Kol yelled, staring at my half conscious sister. Stefan and I just looked at each other, guilt written on both of our faces. "She triggered the curse. Her dark magic is coming back to her. My mother's maiden name was Black; Sydney's a Black, being a Black witch comes with a price." I explained. The next thing I knew, Sydney was screaming, and so it starts.
