"Why is the box so small?" Hope asked confused.

"You'll see," Thea said with excitement.

Niklaus watched in curiosity. He was curious to see what Hephaestus made for the girls. He didn't think that there would be anything in there for him or the other two men. The noise of a kitchen drawer being opened and slammed shut woke up Kol and Elijah.

"What's going on?" Elijah asks, seeing everyone was awake besides Kol and himself.

"Today I start training Rebekah how to use a sword. The rest of the girls decided to join us unless I didn't have enough swords. I had only ordered one sword, however, my uncle seems to know me and my family, so he sent more than one. We were opening the box to see how many he sent," Thea said, holding up a knife and the small box.

"How are there swords in there?" Kol asked in confusion and slight disbelief.

Thea just smiled and opened the box. There were eight pieces of jewelry in the box. Four of which were more masculine, one of them being a black skull, much to her confusion. The other four were more feminine. There were also some shrunken dummies to practice with.

"He sent one for all of you, and an extra," Thea said in a thoughtful whisper, "Why?" she murmured.

"Is there a problem with all of us receiving one?" Nik asked, knowing the look on his daughter's face.

"Not at all," She said looking up at him. Looking back down at the swords, she murmured, "however, the fact that he sent all of you a sword when I just received the information I did, is not a mere coincidence. And why is there an extra?"

"I see," Niklaus replied, his eyes darkening a little as he understanding what she is hinting at, "If that's the case, it might be better to have that conversation now, then train all of us. I got the feeling we'll need it," Niklaus told his daughter.

"Yeah, it looks like it. However, I would need to tell you how to kill the monsters too, most of them can't be killed by ripping out its heart, or its head, especially if it has three hearts or three heads," Thea told him.

"What are you two talking about?" Davina asks, bringing Thea's and Nik's attention back to the others.

The two looked at the others and saw a bunch of confusion on their faces.

"What conversation do we need to have?" Elijah asks.

"What monsters do we need to learn to kill? and Why?" Rebekah asks.

"What did she know about Henrik?" Kol asked.

Silence fell amongst the family.

"What do you mean, Kol?" Rebekah asks, confused and a little bit horror-stricken.

"We went to find her after she had a flashback of something, and found her asleep by a stream, under a tree. We had never seen her look so calm and at ease, so we decided to wait for her to wake up on her own. She was apparently dreaming and mumbled Henrik's name. It had an annoyed tone to it like she knew him and was talking to him," Kol answered.

Everyone, minus Niklaus, turned to look at Thea.

"How do you know Henrik?" Elijah asks.

"I've met him. I was on a quest and needed to go to the underworld to get information from someone in Elysium. There I ran into Henrik Mikaelson. He knew who I was looking for and helped take me to that person. We didn't know we were related at the time, so we just got to know each other on a friend level. The dream you heard me having was the memory I have of meeting him," Thea said.

"How do we know you aren't lying to us?" Freya asks.

"If I were lying, I wouldn't make a story that sounds near impossible to actually believe," Thea laughed a little.
