So, I've finally gotten to updating this finally, hope you like it, and just so you know I have rewritten Sage's past. Please review.

Chapter 19

"I don't understand why she can't go to the elementary school.", said Klaus. Hayley rolled her eyes.

"We can't deal with that, this family is constantly getting death threats!", said Hayley.

Klaus sighed. "I just want to help her have fun, and be normal, isn't that what you wanted. Didn't you say she used to go to one."

"Yes I did, until now, I realized she's not normal, and she's completely vulnerable in that school without her magic, and her magic could lose control if we take her bracelet off.", Hayley screamed well aware that most of the people in the house could hear her.

"Well, I think since I had no decision in her life for the most part, I should be able to decide this.", said Klaus smugly.

"I thought we were already over this, we have decided to leave it in the past!", said Hayley.

"I never ever agreed to that.", yelled Klaus.

"I think I know what's best for her, I'm her mother!", said Hayley.

"Well, I'm her father, and I have lived for thousands of years, so I know more than you.", said Klaus.

"That doesn't matter, I have been a bigger part of her life!", said Hayley.

"And who's fault is that?", asked Klaus standing up. Hayley then slapped him.

Klaus was surprised at first and then he smiled. "Game on." He then kicked her into the wall.

Hope flinched add she heard the sound of another item break. Hope knocked on the door that was in front of her.

"Come in.", her Uncle Elijah said from the inside of his study. Hope opened the door and greeted her Uncle Elijah with a smile. He returned a smile. "What can I help you with?" BANG! Hope flinched again and Elijah sighed.

"I was wondering..", said Hope. CRASH! Hope flinched again. "If you could see if I could go to school, a public school, like my dad wants."

"Sweety, I don't really have a say in it.", said Elijah. WHAM! Hope sighed.

"Yeah, you do, you are my daddy's brother, and they both love you, and when my mom marries you, you'll be my dad-uncle.", said Hope desperately. "Please, it would be a great opportunity."

Before ELijah could respond they heard a big "I will kill you!", from Hayley. Elijah sighed.

"Fine, I can try to talk to them, but it won't be pretty.", said Elijah. Hope smiled. All of a sudden Klaus fell through the roof. He stood up and waved to Hope and Elijah who had both jumped up in surprise before he jumped back up to the floor above them.

"It definitely won't be pretty.", said ELijah and Hope giggled.

0oOo0

Elijah fixed his tie as he walked into the penthouse. He saw Hayley and Klaus both covered in blood, Klaus was trying to choke her.

"No, no, no, no!", said Elijah as he pulled his brother's arms down. And helped Hayley breather better. He looked at Klaus with disappointment.

"Calm down Elijah, we were just discussing stuff about the school.", said Klaus.

"I can see that.", said Elijah sarcastically.

"Hey, at least I didn't take away your one and only niece and break your heart and your family's.", said Klaus. Elijah sighed. Hayley tried to lunge for klaus but ELijah held her back. Hayley told him she was fine. But, when Elijah let her go, she tackled Klaus to the ground.

Elijah pulled her off of him before they tried to kill each other again. "Okay, we are going to sit down and come up with a compromise." Hayley and Klaus glared at Elijah. He glared back so they sighed and sat down on opposite sides of the couch.

"Hope came to me.", said Elijah. Elijah looked towards Hayley. "She wants to give it a try." Hayley sighed and Klaus smirked.

"Elijah, Hope will be in danger, she is too young to protect herself, I don't want her getting hurt. Tatia is after our family, and probably many other enemies of this family.", said Hayley.

"And I understand that, I just think she can handle herself, besides it's a public school full of humans, she'll be fine.", said Klaus.

"What, if one of us became a teacher there or something to protect her?", suggested Elijah. They thought on that.

"How about all of us?", asked Hayley. They both looked at her curiously. "What if we become the staff, not permanently, just till we can make sure she's safe."

"That's insane, we need to deal with Tatia, and that will draw to much attention to us.", said Klaus.

"It's the only way I'll allow her to go to a school.", said Hayley.

"Fine, but everyone will have to agree.", said Elijah.

"You can't agree to this, Elijah, I don't.", said Klaus now standing up.

"This is called a compromise, your daughter, she wants to do this, she wants to make friends, she wants to have fun.", said Elijah.

"Fine, but I bet most of the family won't agree to it.", said Klaus.

"Fine.", said Hayley.

0oOo0

"Sister, are you okay?", asked Elijah. He stopped by Rebekah's door, he could hear crying.

"One second Elijah.", Rebekah yelled back. She opened the door a minute later.

"Sorry, I just was calling Stefan, trying to figure out a way around his deal.", said Rebekah.

Elijah saw her about to tear up again and he pulled her into a hug. "I am so sorry, it's my fault, if only I did more so Tatia hadn't done the spell."

"It's not your fault brother.", said Rebekah. She pulls out of the hug.

"We are having a family meeting soon, sister, remember that your family is here for you and soon you'll be back to your fierce self.", said Elijah.

"Thanks.", said Rebekah as she smiled weakly.

0oOo0

"So, we've decided replace the staff, just for the moment.", said Elijah. The whole room looked at him in shock.

"So wait a minute.", said Kol. He stood up. "You want us to become teachers?"

"Yes, that's the amazing plan.", said Klaus sarcastically.

"That's insane!", said Rebekah. "We can't be teachers!"

"Well, some of us our hundreds of years old, I'm hoping we picked some things up along the way.", said Elijah.

"What about Davina? She's only 19.", said Kol.

"She can be a lunch lady.", said Hayley. "I'll be one as well."

"This is still insane!", said Marcel.

"Okay, we understand that, but this isn't for us, it's for Hope, she wants to go to school, but she needs to also be safe. And this is NOT going to be for more than a week or two, we just need to make sure she is in a safe environment. Now all of you need to decide what class you would like to teach.", said Elijah. "I will be teaching writing."

"I'll teach art.", said Klaus. Everyone nodded.

"I guess, I can teach music?", said Caroline who wasn't to sure. Klaus gave her a smile.

"And I can do reading.", said Finn. He looked towards Rebekah.

"And I guess I can do history.", said Rebekah. Everyone smiled.

"I can try to do Grammer.", said Marcel.

"And I can monitor recess.", said Jackson.

"I'll teach science.", said Freya.

Everyone looked to Kol. "Fine, you guys are bloody idiots, but I can do Physical Education. Everyone smiled.

"Does Hope know that we will be her teachers?", asked Rebekah.

"No.", said Hayley. "And she won't know until her first day."

"I will inform Hope.", said Hayley. Everyone nodded.

Hayley walked to Hope's room and knocked on the door.

"Who is it?", she heard Hope ask.

"Your Mother.", said Hayley. Hope opened the door smiling.

"So, what did you guys decide?", asked Hope.

"Well, we decided that it would be good for you to go to school, just as long as we take some safety measures.", said Hayley. Hope smiled.

"I'm going to school.", said Hope, her smile getting bigger. "I'm going to school." She started jumping up and down. "I'm going to school!"

"Yeah you are.", said Hayley.

"I'm going to go make sure daddy knows!", said Hope as she ran out of the room. Hayley smiled.

She could hear Hope screaming, "Daddy! Guess what, I'm going to school!"

Hayley got up and watched as Klaus picked Hope up into a hug. "So you are."

0oOo0

Hope smiled as she walked down the halls, it wasn't a huge school, but still people were everywhere on every side of her. Her father had taken her shopping, and it was fun. Hope was on her way to her first class. She was a little nervous. Would the teachers like her, would her classmates. She walked into her first class. The first thing she noticed wasn't the students or desks, or the posters on the walls, or all the conversations happening, but it was the teacher.

"Miss Mikaelson, would you please sit down.", said her Uncle Finn.

Hope sat down.

Finn smiled then returned to the class. "My name is Mr. Mikaelson, I will be the substitute teacher for the time being. Now, the teacher before has forgotten to tell you have been working on, so will you please enlighten me."

A couple students in the class raise their hands. Finn scans over their hands.

"Miss Sarah?", asked Finn. Recognizing a girl that had introduced herself earlier.

"Yeah, that's not my last name though, well anyways, we were going over our vocab words for the week.", said Sarah. Finn's face fell.

He had no idea what he was doing. "Well, that's not what we are doing this week."

The whole class was confused. "We will practice reading today, I was thinking maybe, Dr. Seuss?" The whole class was still confused, but nodded their heads.

Finn smiled and found some books in a book shelf in the back of the room and handed them out. "Well, I guess, good luck."

0oOo0

Hope glares at Finn as she leaves Reading. She then smiles when she meets Miss Sage. She had a tough figure and a long redish brown hair. She gave us a bright smile as we walked in. They all take their seats and smiled back. "I'm Miss Sage, I'll be your math teacher. Welcome. Today we are just going to spend the day getting to know our new student Miss Mikaelson, and introduce everyone to her as well."

"Okay, how about Hope, you come up and tell us a bit about yourself?", Miss Sage said. Hope nodded a little nervous, but stood up all the same.

"My name is Hope Mikaelson. I am well, I guess I am a little of an artist, I mean I like art. And I have a large family, who can be nosy at some points. And I am very nervous.", said Hope. Everyone stared at her with a bored blank face. She observed everyone. There was one person who stood out. In the back of the room. There was a girl with a bright smile, she looked nice and had dark brown hair. She gave Hope a thumbs ups, Hope looked questioningly at her.

"Well, thank you Miss Mikaelson.", said Hope. "It's nice to meet you."

"You can call me Miss Sage, I unlike you don't have a large family, but I do like art.", said Miss Sage. Hope nodded then sat back down. "Okay, now we are going to go around the room and introduce ourselves."

Hope smiled slightly as everyone introduced themselves, only one name caught her attention. It was the girl who had smiled at her earlier.

"My name is Emma Salvatore. I have lived in this town all of my life. It's great to meet you Hope. I don't like art, but I love to write.", the girl said then sat down.

Hope spoke up. "Salvatore?" Emma nodded. Hope frowned slightly, that sounded familiar. Hope would have to figure it out later.

0oOo0

"Mr. Mikaelson, correct?", asked Sage. Finn looked over at her and smiled slightly. "It's strange how all the old teachers are somehow not at work today, so many substitutes. And they almost all have the same last name."

Finn frowned, they had compelled all the teachers, this girl shouldn't be here. Sage seemed to read his mind.

She held up a glass of water that smelled of vervain. "What's even stranger is that the Original Vampires are teaching at a school when they should be finding a way to get rid of Tatia Petrova." Finn bared his fangs before Sage then bared hers.

"You may be powerful, but I'm not afraid of you.", said Sage. "But, don't worry, I won't tell." She then smiled and started towards the door. "Tell Nik that Hope is a wonderful girl."

0oOo0

Hope walked into the science classroom, she drops her books when she sees Freya in the center of the room using magic to make a vial of water bubble and change colors pretending to know science. The other kids in the class watched intently and laughed and smiled with every change in the water. Freya winked at Hope, that made her smile slightly.

0oOo0

"So for lunch, should we just give them peanut butter and jelly sandwiches?", asked Hayley. Davina shrugged.

"How are we going to make enough in time?", asked Hayley. Davina just shrugged again. "You are no help.", Hayley snapped.

Davina sighed and waved her hand and five hundred sandwiches appeared. Hayley sighed, but accepted it.

0oOo0

Hope smiles when she sees people running around to go to swings and slides. They all looked so happy. Hope's smile falters when she sees her dad, Jackson standing there monitoring them. She walks up to him and glares.

"Hello there Miss, are you new here too?", he said as he smiled. Hope's glare grew bigger. "Okay, hello Hope."

"Why are you here?", she asked.

"It was your family's idea.", said Jackson.

"You better not be here tomorrow, I love you.", said Hope as she walked away to meet Emma Salvatore, she felt the need to investigate. "Wait, she said, do you know the name Salvatore?"

"I love you too, and yes Salvatore sounds familiar.", said Jackson as he tried to figure out where he has heard that name.

Hope sighed then walked towards Emma, she was sitting down on a bench and reading.

"What are you reading?", asked Hope as she sat down beside Emma.

"Just an old family diary.", said Emma.

"Can I ask a question?", asked Hope. Emma nodded and smiled slightly. "What is your last name's history?"

"I don't know.", Emma shrugged. "It's my mom's name. Sarah Salvatore, she's a single mother, I have never met my dad."

"Sorry, I have about three dads, I have my real dad, my step dad, and my Uncle who is dating my mom. It's complicated.", said Hope.

"Wow, you really do say what's on your mind, I like that.", said Emma.

"I'm glad you I met your.", said Hope. "You are very interesting." Emma laughed.

"So are you.", said Emma. "How about you sit with me and my friends during lunch."

"I would love to.", said Hope.

0oOo0

"I have a peanut allergy.", said one little boy in the line. Davina glared at him. She then whispered a spell.

"There is no peanut butter on that one.", said Davina as the boy looked skeptical but moved a long.

"Just so you know this is the worst lunch in history.", said a little girl.

Davina looked angry before Hayley came up. "Well, I'm glad you like it.", said Hayley.

Sitting at one of the tables was Hope and Emma and three other boys and a blonde girl.

"I hate peanut butter.", said one of the boys. Emma smiled.

"This is Alexander, the other boy is Percy, and this girl right here is Piper.", said Emma. "Guys this is Hope." Hope gave a small wave.

"Nice to meet you Hope.", said Percy.

"Hope is a strange name.", said Piper. They all giggled except Hope who blushed a little.

"Piper isn't any better, though.", said Emma. They all giggled a little and Hope even joined in this time.

"So tell us about your family Hope.", said Alexander.

"It's big, I have many aunts and uncles.", said Hope.

"Do you have and siblings?", asked Piper. "I have two sisters, we call ourselves charmed sisters, it's fun with siblings."

"No, I don't, I don't think I'll have a sibling anytime soon.", said Hope.

"Don't worry, Alexander, Emma, and I don't have any siblings either.", said Percy.

"You guys seem nice, I'm glad I got to meet you all.", said Hope as she smiled.

"You sound like you've never had a friend before.", said Emma. Hope smiled slightly smaller. It was nice to have friends.

0oOo0

"I heard there is a substitute for Writing as well.", said Emma. Hope sighed. She wasn't surprised to see her Uncle Elijah standing up in the middle of the room, he didn't even acknowledge her.

"Welcome, my name is Mr. Gillies. I'm going to teach one of the most important lessons that I've learned in my long life.", said Elijah.

"Now, what do you believe the word normal means?", asked Elijah. A couple kids raised their hand.

"Yes, you in the blue.", said Elijah.

"What everyone is like.", said Percy. Elijah nodded appreciatively.

"Good answer, and you are right. Normal is suppose to be what everyone is like, and if you are not normal most people leave you out, you feel left out.", said Elijah. Hope could have sworn Elijah was looking at her.

"But, it is good to be different. If you aren't different you won't get anywhere, and if you are different, you can still be normal, because normal is being different. So now you are going to partner up and talk about each other's differences and celebrate them.", said Elijah.

Emma turned to Hope, "I like this teacher. He's smart." Hope nodded.

At the end of the class Hope stopped at Elijah's desk, "Thank you."

Elijah smiled, he nodded slightly. "Enjoy the rest of your day."

0oOo0

Caroline smiled during music class. Hope was a little less grumpy, she still couldn't believe the nerve of her family though.

Caroline smiled then started the song of the day.

You with the sad eyes
don't be discouraged, though I realize it's hard to
take courage in a world, full of people
you can lose sight of it
And the darkness inside you
will make you feel so small
But I see your true colors, shining through
I see your true colors, and that's why I love you
So don't be afraid, to let them show
your true colors, true colors
Are beautiful, like a rainbow

The kids then joined in:

Show me a smile, don't be unhappy
I can't remember when I last saw you laughing
If this world makes you crazy and
you've taken in all you can bare
You call me up- because you know I'll be there
But I see your true colors, shining through
I see your true colors, and that's why I love you
So don't be afraid, to let them show
Your true colors, true colors
Are beautiful, like a rainbow
I can't remember when I last saw you laughing
If this world makes you crazy
and you take in all you can bare
You call me up- because you know I'll be there
And I see your true colors, shining through
I see your true colors and that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show

Your true colors, true colors
True colors, are shining through
I see your true colors and that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors, true colors
Are beautiful, like a rainbow

"Welcome to Art kiddos, now today's lesson is simple, draw what is in your heart.", said Klaus.

Hope looked at the blank canvas in front of her. She started drawing herself, she drew her father, then her mother. She added Elijah with his arm around her mother. She then added Caroline. She put her Aunt Rebekah and Stefan in it, she then added Marcel and Camille. She added in Aunt Freya and Jackson, Kol and Davina. She then added her dog. Lastly, she added her new friends, Emma, Percy, Piper, and Alexander.

Klaus came up behind her and set a hand on her shoulder and shared a smile with her. Emma however looked at her curiously. "Are you drawing all the substitute teachers?" Hope and Klaus giggled.

0oOo0

Marcel greets them all into Grammar. Hope pulls Marcel aside. "No, I have had it with all of you. This is my school, you and the rest of my family need to leave, I swear if I see you guys teaching here tomorrow, you will fear me." Marcel looked at her awkwardly.

"Umm okay."

0oOo0

"Okay, in I think it was the year 1780, there was a Winter ball, you see I was friends with the Schylar sisters, Angelica, Eliza, and Peggy. There were the heart of the ball besides me of course. I believe that was the day Eliza met Alexander Hamilton.", said Rebekah.

"My name is Alexander.", said Alexander.

"Yes, but you look nothing like him, he had a certain charm to him, handsome, proud…", said Rebekah. Everyone looked at her curiously. "Of course I read this in our history books."

"I don't see it in the book.", said Piper. Rebekah put on a fake smile.

"A different history book.", said Rebekah.

0oOo0

Hope walked through the front door to see all of her family sitting in the sitting room. She crossed her arms and glared at them all.

"I hope your day was okay.", said Hayley.

"Why?", Hope simply asked.

"We wanted to make sure everything was safe.", said Klaus.

"I don't need a bodyguard.", said Hope.

"I know that, just you are our family and we protect our family.", said Klaus.

"I see why Aunt Rebekah keeps complaining about how clingy you are.", said Hope. They all looked to Rebekah. She blushed and looked away. Klaus glared at her.

"Look, Hope, we won't do it again, if that's what you want, Marcel told us about what you said.", said Elijah. Hope slightly blushed.

"Please don't, I found friends, I was so excited for this, and you guys almost ruined it.", said Hope as she walked off.

0oOo0

"I think we messed up with Hope today.", said Hayley. "And it's all my fault, gosh I'm a terrible mother.", said Hayley. Elijah handed her a drink.

"It's just a small mistake, she'll forgive you.", said Elijah.

"You know, you would be a good teacher." said Hayley.

"Marcel would disagree.", said Elijah as he sat down on a couch next to Hayley.

"You're better than you give yourself credit for.", said Hayley. She kissed him on the forehead and falls asleep on his shoulder.

0oOo0

"What was Hope thinking!", asked Klaus. He was pacing back and forth on his blood red carpet in his room as Caroline laid on the bed bored.

"She wants to live her own life.", says Caroline. She pulls Klaus back to the bed and gives him a slight massage. "And she wants you to let her."

"I am, I just need to protect her.", said Klaus.

"Hope is different from other kids, but she doesn't want to feel that way, she wants to have fun with friends and be a child, not live in fear.", said Caroline. Klaus laid back and thought about those words.

0oOo0

Finn knocked on Hope's bedroom door. She opens it, she glares at him. "I'm here to apologize.", explained Finn. Hope stepped aside and let him in.

"I shouldn't have done that, I understand what it's like to have a family controlling your every move. It wasn't right. I was hoping you could forgive me, you are the only person in my family I haven't wronged, well I guess I did a couple years ago. But still, my family hates me, I don't want you too.", said Finn. To Finn's surprise Hope hugs him.

"Of course I forgive you, and so will our family, if you just ask for it.", said Hope.

"One more thing.", said Finn. "Can I keep teaching, it makes me happy. Gives me something to do."

Hope thought for a second. "You have my permission, just don't teach reading.", said Hope.

"Was I really that bad?", asked Finn with a smile.

"Worse than you can imagine.", giggled Hope. "How about History?"

"I can do that.", said Finn.

0oOo0

Finn sat at his new history deck when a red headed beauty popped into the room.

"Mr. Mikaelson, welcome back, it's strange, I can't find the old history teacher anywhere. I assume you have a permanent position now?", asked Sage.

"Of course Miss Sage.", said Finn. "Sage Delorose."

Sage looked shocked that he knew her last name. "How did you know?"

"You knew Nikklaus back in the 1800s, We knew each other as well, I seemed to have forgotten about you for a while.", said Finn.

"I believe we will be seeing more of each other, have a magical day.", said Sage as she left the room. Finn smiled as she left.

0oOo0

Freya walked outside and emptied an old potion vial of whatever was in it. It was raining outside, what surprised Freya though was Jackson sitting on the steps watching people rushing by with their colorful umbrellas.

"Rough day?", Freya asked. Jackson looked at her in shock then recovered quickly.

"Just thinking.", said Jackson. Freya went and sat down by him bringing an umbrella with her.

"About your grandmother?", she asked. Jackson nodded. "Are you angry?"

"Of course, I don't know where to go, the pack is basically gone, I don't have any family, and I definitely don't belong here.", said Jackson.

"I think you belong here perfectly.", said Freya. They shared a look. Before any Freya could do anything else Jackson leaned in and kissed her. Freya then broke apart after a couple seconds and rans back inside. Jackson sighed as he stayed out their getting dripping wet from the rain.

0oOo0

Finn stopped at Rebekah's room. She was calling Stefan.

"Look, we'll figure something out.", he could hear Rebekah say. She then ended the call when she saw that Finn was listening.

"What do you want.", asked Rebekah.

"I just wanted to ask for forgiveness.", said Finn.

"For what? Listening on my conversations, trying to kill me, trying to kill Stefan, trying to kill Hope, trying to kill my family, or abandoning our family?", asked Rebekah. Finn sighed.

"I regret all of that, I'm just trying to make things up to everyone, I might be able to help with Stefan.", said Finn.

That caught Rebekah's attention. "How?"

"There's this witch I met when I was away, she can find a loophole in anything, even an unbreakable vow or contract. She has gotten some clients out of some before, she knows the type of magic to stop the unbreakable vow. The reason I didn't mention this earlier is because she would never help me. So we'll have to take on her coven, you and me.", said Finn.

Rebekah smirked. "It's a good thing I don't want to sit around and sulk anymore. Let's go kick some witch ass."

I hope you liked the newest chapter. I have three Questions.

1. What do you think of Freya and Jackson?

2. What do you think of Sage and Finn?

3. What do you think of Hope and her new friends in this chapter?

Next chapter we will see bonding between Kol and Hope, and bonding between Finn and Rebekah, which we usually don't get to see. Tatia is also back, and Hope's friends will stay to be part of the story, not big parts though. And What do you think of Emma Salvatore. I have something planned with her. And Seria will return next chapter as well. I don't know when I will update but the more reviews I get the more it inspires me to write. Thank you and please review.
