The Mikaelsons play together in the woods. Sadly, Anastasia could not join for she has to take care of her sick mother. Elijah was sadden about it, but fell in love with her more. He played with Klaus as they both sword fight before hearing Kol shout.

"I have tackled the monster! Brothers! Sister! Help!" He shouted and they all look as Finn tries to get up and everyone came after him making it more difficult. They all laughed when they have fallen to the ground only for their laughter to die down when they heard a familiar shout.

"Niklaus!!" They all tense and stood up as their father marches towards them with his eyes trained towards Niklaus.

"What the bloody hell are you doing?! Didn't I tell you to help your mother boy?!" He shouted as Niklaus shivered in fear.

"I-I'm sorry." He says fearfully as Mikael glared and ready to slap him, but Elijah stopped him.

"Father! Stop!" He shouted and Mikael glared at his son pointing a finger towards him.

"Stay back! Or you'll be next." He threatens and Elijah debated on standing back and before he could do anything a soft sob came from behind Mikael which caused everyone to look and see Anastasia standing there with tears in her eyes.

"Please help me, mother is growing weaker and I couldn't find Esther anywhere." She pleaded tears streaming from her eyes. Mikael quickly went towards her and nodded his head.

"Come." He held his hand out for her to take which she did as they began walking away. Anastasia looked over her shoulder towards the Mikaelson siblings and gave a smile before she went back to crying.

3 years later———

Rebekah giggles as she and Anastasia chase one another laughing. Elijah walks out of their house and looked outside seeing his sister and Anastasia play happily.

"Elijah! Join us!" Anastasia calls as she runs up towards him grabbing his hand and dragging him away from the house. He chuckles as he walks out and played with them. Anastasia the Mikaelsons heard Rosalia call for Anastasia whom looked over towards her.

"Be right there, mother." She calls and Rosalia nodded before entering the house. It was further away from the Mikaelsons home, but still visible.

"I need to go now, see you guys later!" She waved and ran back home as Elijah and Rebekah watches her. Rebekah look towards her older brother seeing the look on his face while watching Anastasia making her smile and nudge him getting his attention.

"What?" He asks.

"I know that look. When are you gonna tell her that you love her?" She asks crossing her arms and Elijah rolled his eyes.

"I don't know what you mean." He mutters and Rebekah scoffs.

"Please, you do know what I mean, brother! You love Anastasia. Either you tell her or someone in this village will confess their undying love towards Anastasia." Rebekah warns and Elijah's eyes widen as the realization hit him. Rebekah is right, any unmarried man can ask for Anastasia's hand in any second.
