The entire Mikaelson clan stood before Elijah who seemed to have gained his memory back.

"How is that possible?" I asked and Elijah seemed confused.

"I remember... I remember now." He said looking to the floor, it was coming back, all of it. Tears began to fill his eyes and Klaus walked to his brother hugging him.

"I'm so sorry." Elijah said hugging Klaus and looking at me. I hadn't realized how much this had affected him, but what I didn't understand was how had he gained his memory back?

"The hollow, it gains power from absorbing magic. It must have absorbed the compulsion magic and when I took the hollow back, I took that magic with me." Hope explained as everybody smiled at Elijah. He had gained his memories back but part of him was still different, his accent wasn't as strong, he seemed less uptight too.

"Hope, I need you to get us out of here." Klaus said and Hope winced looking at me.

"I know, I'll spell myself out. But you need to let them all out." I said and she nodded. I gave her a kiss on her head before appearing back in front of Freya.

"Clara, what happened?" Freya asked helping me up. I looked at her with disappointed eyes and she shook her head knowing what I was going to say.

"No, that's not possible Clara. You don't understand, it'll consume her from the inside out, she'll die." Freya exclaimed.

"I know, which is why I don't plan on leaving it to her." I said gathering candles and equipment I needed for a spell. Freya followed behind me trying to figure out what I had said.

"What do you mean? You're not thinking of taking it right?" Freya said and I looked at her.

"I'm her mother Freya, it's what I do. Protect her at all costs... even if it means I could die." I said and Freya frowned. "Just don't tell her..." I said when suddenly the four originals had woken up, Hope included. Klaus and I exchanged a worried look for Hope when Elijah came running to me. He held my face in his hands not knowing what to say.

"I- I'm not exactly sure what to say." He said and I chuckled.

"Yeah, I figured as much." I said looking at Hope who was hugging her aunt Rebekah and Freya. Elijah pressed his thumb into my cheek and I leaned into his touch.

"Do you still love me Clara?" He asked looking deep into my eyes.

"Is that even a question? If I went looking for you in Manosque because I couldn't get over you it means I still love you, and now that your memories are back, I guess that's even better." I said pulling him in for a kiss. Marcel suddenly appeared and our lips parted.
