"Let me get this straight," Caroline started as they passed the 'Welcome to New Orleans' sign, "You're a secret older sister who is a witch, Rebekah is currently in a witch body, Klaus has a daughter, Elijah is into said daughter's mother who is currently mourning her husband's death, Kol is in love with a witch, and the sire lines are in danger from some psycho vampire named Lucien"

"Don't forget Klaus's crazy ex drove away Cami, his crush." Freya laughed, the story sounding absolutely crazy even to her.

The word crush and ex sent a pang deep into Caroline. The throbbing pain embedding itself into her heart and twisting violently. A feeling that the blonde only felt once when Klaus promised to never come back. A feeling of utter sadness.

"Who would've thought the big bad hybrid could have a crush," Caroline didn't mean to sound bitter, but the stifled chuckle from Freya signaled otherwise.

"I thought you would've known better than anyone. Whenever anyone mentions the name caroline his eyes darken and he walks away, you're the woman who shall not be named." Freya Mikaelson wiggled her eyebrows slightly, wanting desperately for someone to change her angry brother.

"He didn't have real feelings. It was all lust." Caroline sounded like she was trying to convince herself more than Freya, but the witch could read right through her.

"Look, Caroline, no one knows you're coming," she warned, as they parked and got out, approaching the large compound with slow steps, "so be careful and try to stay away from Lucien, Aurora, and Tristan. They're dangerous."

"Aye aye captain. Now let's go do this witchy voodoo so I can explore!" Caroline laughed but instantly stopped as they walked through the threshold and into the large complex.

Klaus was stood talking to Elijah, both their expressions grave, but what mainly caught her eye was the small baby in the arms of the noble vampire. Who she only could assume was hope. Though the sight of Klaus caused her to feel choked up. Tears pushing behind her eyes painfully at the man she thought she'd never see again. Pushing the tears down she let out a hoarse, "Klaus."

The hybrid's head snapped towards the voice, large blue eyes growing with shock, and his lips tugging in a joyous smirk, immediately stopping the conversation with his brother Klaus ran over to her. Appearing in a second not one foot away.

"Love what are you doing here?" Klaus wanted to reach out and touch her, wanted to Will himself to believe the beautiful girl was really here and not apart of his imagination.

"I'm here to help with your Lucien problem and apparently your crazy ex. You never did have good taste in women." Caroline loved their banter, her voice teasing as she walked around him and further down, "Now Freya needs my help."

"Caroline you cannot be here. Aurora if she finds you.." Klaus couldn't handle losing her

"She won't, I'll be okay she won't hurt me." Gently placing her hand on Niklaus's shoulder she shook it playfully, "Not when I have the Mikaelson's on my side."

"Come on Caroline we have to get started immediately."
