A quick recap of the last chapter's events:

"Faith," I say just above a whisper.

"Guys we're back" I whisper, trying to not wake up my sister, knowing that all of them can hear me

When we get downstairs, we see Lizzie and Josie talk with aunts, while dad, Uncle Kol, and Marcel are sitting around the table drinking something, and Caroline talks with my mom.

I clear my throat to grab their attention.

"Our little princess is home."

Hope's POV:

Faith, bless her little heart, starts to tear up once she hears everyone. As expected, she runs straight to our mother's arms crying her eyes out, and not one eye stays dry at this point.

"M-Mom"

Mom smiles through her tears "Yes baby it's me you're okay we got you now."

Once she got down from mom, she looked at our aunts and uncles, and then I realize that someone is missing.

Her father. Uncle Elijah.

"T-They t-told me he d-died with uncle K-Klaus... but Uncle Klaus is h-h-here... Mom where is he??"

Mom puts Faith down and I feel my tears starting to fall. I walk over to my little sister, hug her tight while whispering in her ear slowly and as calmly as I can "Your father did die with your Uncle Klaus. Two weeks ago, my girlfriend, the one who came with me to save you, she uhm... she died, and she saw mom and Uncle Klaus and managed to bring them back with her. Unfortunately... your father wasn't there when she came so he couldn't come back."

"N-No he can't be dead Hope he is waiting for us somewhere Hope he can't be dead I need him!!" she screams as she cries into my shoulder.

"I know Fae, I know. But this is the truth. You have no idea how much I want him to just knock on that door and come inside but he won't. Faith you must understand that he died to save us, me from the Hollow and you from the monsters that caught you. Before he died, he told me to look for you, and if he hadn't told me that you probably wouldn't have been here now. He loved you more than anything else in this world. Even when he wasn't himself, even when it seemed that he forgot. Mom met him, and she told him about you. Fae even when he didn't know it, he adored you."

"Really?"

"Yes Faith, Really."

Faith stops crying a few minutes later and we just sit quietly on the couch, cuddling, while everyone else just waits for my sister to calm down.

But then I remembered the odd thing I saw when we went to save her.

"Fae"

No answer.

"Faith look at me."

She does, but she doesn't open her eyes.

Praying that I am wrong, I force her to open her eyes

"Faith. Open your eyes"

And this time, I really wish I didn't.

Her eyes are different. Still blue, but most of them are white.

Blind white.

The tears well up in my eyes again, I had a feeling, but I really wanted it to be a lie.

"Hopey I'm so sorry I didn't tell you... M-My sight was already bad when they took me because... you know" she starts, but my father cut her
"what do you mean by that Faith?"
