66... The Departed

Allyson and the kids are with Jeremy st the hospital, Elena had gotten hurt at Klaus's. Meredith Fell is outside Elena's room with the bundle of people, Henrik is propped on Allyson's hip.

"She's gonna be fine," Meredith tells the group. "She got a little banged up today, hit her head, but it was just a slight concussion, nothing to worry about."

"But due collapsed, there was blood." Jeremy says, she had fainted at him.

"Honestly, Jeremy, she's okay," Meredith says. "She's just... Been through a lot. Is there anyone you guys want to call?"

Tyler -who is holding Henrik- and Matt open the front door and Caroline helps Elena inside, her arm wrapped around the fragile human.

"Couch," carlimensays.

"I'm fine," Elena says as Tyler puts Henrik in the playpen the twins used. "I just... I want to eat something first."

"We're on it, as soon as we make sure no one is lurking in the closers," Tyler says before he and may go upstairs.

"All right, couch, now!" Caroline says as she leads Elena through the living room.

"Uhh," Elena says as she is placed on the couch, I told you I'm fine."

Allyson uses her bagic to cover her friend up. "Doctor says you need rest, you rest. Don't make me cast a spell on you that will make you rest."

Carroline snorts, "Yep, I can tell you're related to the Originals."

Allyson laughs as the twins run upstairs, where Tyler and Mat are.

Allyson walks back it to eh living room with some wine, her kids don't mind her drinking some. The door is wide open. She gasps when she sees Elijah.

"Elijah..." she smiles.

Elijah smiles. "Hello again, Allyson."

Allyson walks over and she hugs Elijah. He hugs her back and he sees Henrik.
(**)

"All we need is to take the stake away from him," Elijah says as he holds Henrik in the Gilbert kitchen. "Once he has been disarmed, the weapon's in my possession, my family will scatter to the ends of the earth and Alaric will follow us."

"And you'll just run?" Elena asks as Stefan sits beside her.

"We've done it before," Elijah replies. "Klaus and Rebekah spent the better part of a thousand years evading my father. What's another half century while Elena is able to live out her natural life and my sweet niece remains unharmed?"

"We've finally stopped him, Elijah," Elena says. "After everything that he's done, I can't just let you bring him back."

"I give you my word, Elena, Allyson," Elijah says. "I will not be retrieving Klaus within yours nor I thin your chimdren's lifetimes. Perhaps they will finally teach him some manners." Elijah touches Henrik's nose. "Allyson, did my mother tell you about Henrik? Your other uncle that was killed by the wolves?"

"She did," Allyson says. "When she she Henrik."

"And why should they believe you?" Matt asks. "All you've done is screw them over."

"And for that, I am deeply ashamed," Elijah replies. "But know this, she could have been dead the instant I walked through that door tonight so Elena, I leave it to you to make the decision wresther to trust me or not. Because i know Allyson does, Because she is allowing me to bond with my nephew."

"Not!" Damon declares, he's on the phone, Allyson's phone. "Hello?! Did they cincussion give you brain damage? His lunatic siblings and Allyson's crazy family will kill you the first chance they get."

"Rebekah and Kol will honor the terms," Elijah states. "If you return Klaus's bidy to us, Elena and Allyson will come no harm." He sees Stefan look at the doppelgänger. "Do we have a deal?"

"No!" Damon declares from the phone. "No, no, no, no! Did I mention, No!"

"Lena, it's up to you," Miranda says, and Jenna nods in agree,ent.

"Oh, come on!" Damon groans as his kids agree with Elijah.

"Why do you want Klaus's body?" Elena asks.

"He's my brother," Elijah replies. "We remain together."

Elena sighs, and she looks at Allyson, who nods. "We have a deal."
(**)

Caroline, Elijah, and Allyson approach Stefan after a while. Jenna and Miranda show up eventually. Henrik is with Clarissa, his nanny.

"What happened?" Elijah asks, but Stefan doesn't respond.

"Stefan?" Allyson says as she touches his arm.
(**)

Elijah and Allyson are standing in the woods, changing about the century Henrik was born and how they were raised. He has told her about how Mikael was, about how horrible he was. Then rebekah shows up, she's in tears.

"He's gone, Elijah." Rebekah says. "There was noting I could do to stop it." Elijah and his sister embrace each other.

"Tyler Lockwood is dead, but the rest survived," Elijah speaks to her. "You said Nicklaus turned their bloodline."n

"I thought he did," Rebekah replies.

"It wasn't me, it wasn't Kol," Elijah tells her.

"It wasn't me, Elijah," Rebekah claims. "It as Nicklaus, I'm sure of it."

"Then how are they alive?" Allyson asks, and the siblings look at their niece.
(**)

Damon and Allyson rush through the hospitals, after hearing the news about Elena.

"Where is she!?" Allyson de,ands.

"No, Allyson, wait!" Meredith grabs her arm.

"Where is she?!" Allyson demands.

"Baby, calm down before Sofija comes out," domain says.

"You need to know, when Jeremy brought Elena in earlier tonight, her brain injuries her worse than I let on. It wasn't a concussion, it was a cerebral hemorrhage, bleeding of the brain."

"What are you saying?" Allyson asks, her eyes red in anger.

"He was worried, I didn't want to tell him, but I... I helped her." Meredith says. "She needed my help."

"You What?" Allyson asks as Sofija comes out.

Damon sighs. "Great. An angry Sofija is not a good one Fell, trust me."

In the morgue, Elena jolts awake and is gasping for air.
