A mother of four dies protecting her children, who she loved more than anything. After her "accident" she is reborn into The Vampire Diaries, way before the plot takes place, into a time when the Originals were only children. She has to face the new...
"Kol." I said with a little bit more raised voice. He jolted up and looked at me with panicky expression before relaxing slightly. I let my hand fell down on his shoulder. "I'm sorry Father, I was so tired." He explained while trying to stand up. I pushed him down to the bed from his shoulder and sighed. "It is okay Son. Just sleep, you seem exhausted. I will leave you food in the kitchen, eat when you are able to do so. If you cant find it, just ask someone. I will come and check on you later. Okay?" I stood up and looked him in the eyes. "Okay." He said quietly and fell almost immidiatly back to sleep. With a smile on my face I made my way to the kitchen.
I sat down again and continued to eat. After a few moments of silence I looked up to see almost everyone looking at me, all except for Niklaus who was still looking at his food and eating. "Kol is exhausted. I let him sleep. Do not, and I mean it. Do Not wake him up now. Let him sleep until he feels good enough to get up." I said with a small smile.
I recived confused but understanding nods. "Good. I was thinking we could train today too." At this the boys looked up at me. "May I ask with who?" Finn asked politely. I nodded. "With Niklaus." All the movement around the table stopped and I recived worried glance from Esther. Niklaus looked at me with wide eyes, but still nodded. I did not miss the look Elijah gave Niklaus.
I sighed. It would take me a long time to have their complete trust again.
After we were done eating, Finn and Henrik helped Esther clean up the mess. I went to change my clothes to something that were more suitable for training. When I stepped outside our room, I heard Rebekah groan. I followed her sound and saw her trying to do her hair.
"Are you okay?" I asked holding in my smile. She jumped slightly and looked at me. "Yes.... No.... I do not know Father." She sighed and crossed her arms against her chest. I walked towards her. "What is the problem?" I asked.
"It is just... Mother is busy and nobody can do my hair. All the other girls on the village always have beautiful hair and then... There is me... I am sorry father, it is not important." She explained while looking quite sad. I frowned and had an idea. "Do not tell your mother, maybe I could help." I said standing behind her. "Really?" She beamed at me and I nodded.
"Secret practice." I whispered to her. She laughed and sat patiently while I worked my magic. As Erika in my previous life I loved to do my daughters hair and it seemed like my skills came to here too.

I made her hair to a viking braids. "It is not perfect, but it is something." I said when I finished. She looked at her hair and turned around and threw herself into me to a hug. "Thank you Father! Thank you, thank you, thank you!" She rambeled. I laughed and hugged her back.
I took a hold of her shoulders and backed away slightly. "But always remember my little Bekah, you are the most beautiful girl in this village. Do not compare yourself to the others. You are beautiful like you are, nobody can ever change that." I said seriously. She looked taken a back by my words, but soon she was hugging me tightly again with tears in her eyes.
