A TVDU What If AU

Elijah had been on edge with Klaus since Celeste's death, but he had Marcel to focus on. He was relatively calm with Marcel, he'd missed helping his younger siblings, and Marcel was a wonderful student and he enjoyed spending time with him, and he'd found himself placing Marcel into the same place as his siblings lived in his mind.

He was someone he wanted to help, teach, and protect, and he didn't think that would ever change. So when Klaus was being ever mad about him teaching the boy the piano or Shakespeare. He really didn't understand, and he was already upset at Klaus being ever so drunk and angry around the child.

So when he then woke Kol who immediately filled their home with death and blood. Thankfully, Marcel didn't see it. But honestly, he pushed them both to keep the feeding out of their home. Because as happy as he was to see Kol again, he didn't stop watching them.

Then the massacres got worse. They were getting larger, more obvious, on a scale that would draw Mikael.

He wasn't waiting, or letting them excuse it, he instead packed bags and while his brothers where too busy he and Marcel left. He only left a letter for Rebekah.

.

He smiled as he and Marcel set up in a new home and Marcel seemed to get excited about being able to held him set up the home they chose. He perhaps gave the boy more then he needed, or what others would give their children.

Marcel didn't even argue when he reasoned that it would be easy to say they're Family, blood, he just asked if he meant son or nephew and Elijah told him he could choose which felt more comfortable.

Even if when they were home, alone, Marcel still just called him Elijah.

A TVDU What If AU!

AN: I may later do the flip side of this, with Finn, Elijah, Kol and Rebekah travelling without Klaus.

Klaus was surprised when Elijah turned up with Aurora, it was just him and Finn, Kol and Rebekah were collecting their things. "You killed mother?" Elijah asked, his voice was ice, and the cold rushed through him and made him completely still. Aurora's shaky apologies fell on deaf ears, especially when he felt Finn turn on him. Instead he moved, faster than even he expected, grabbed Aurora and he Ran.

Away from Elijah and Finn, away from the anger.

.

Lucien found them so very quickly into them running, he'd seen them from the castle and joined them. And he let him, he wanted his friend is with him, with Them.

They'd found a small hidden cottage and had been there for just a little while when Tristan turned up.

Unfortunately, for Tristan, this was after Aurora had explained just How Elijah got the truth from Aurora. So when Tristan Approached, he met him, he knew he was stronger than him. So when he had him by the throat when Tristan attempted to threaten him. He saw a chance of having a Version of Elijah around again. At first he thought he'd just get him to act Like Elijah, that he'd Like him but what actually came out was.

"I want you to be Elijah."

And he watched Tristan's pupils shift, "brother?" Tristan got out and gripped his wrist, but it was so gentle, calm, so like Elijah, "just what have I done to get this treatment."

"Are you going to try and get me and Aurora to break up?"

"Why would I do that?" Klaus removed his hand, placing it on his shoulder as Tristan's Elijah's hand moved to his, "she makes you happy."

Klaus smiled and nodded in agreement. "She does, and you're happy for me?"

"Of course, I am."

A TVDU What If AU

(winner of poll, unfortunately this one isn't too long.)

When Kol drank the blood, when he finished the transition, he felt power like his siblings did, but then also that rush of Magic, that part of him that felt like an empty hole, where his mother said magic should be felt suddenly full.

That was a Rush.

.

As centuries pass Kol started collecting magic styles, he created different sets of grimoires, some of them he kept hidden away from his brother since Klaus got shifty when he got into more Interesting magics.

A lot of it was hidden in places in and outside of the many homes they'd live in through the years.

He tried to collect himself covens, or make others like him, but Klaus got into the habit of killing them each and every time.

Which was what he was Hated most.

He never got more than his own magic, or a few months with witches if he was around family. Klaus didn't like him disappearing because he was rather determined to have him be the one to break the curse on him.

Which he'd have been more likely to do if Klaus didn't keep dagger him.

A TVDU What If AU

AN: My headcanon ages, but do think of them at whatever ages you want! - Henrik: 1 |Rebekah: 4| Kol: 7| Klaus:9 |Elijah: 13 | Finn: 17

Ansel had went to watch his son, he was sure he heard him in the woods with Elijah, but he got there to see Mikael landing a kick on his son as he was lay on the ground, curled up in pain, Elijah watching fearful and frozen.

Then Mikael left them there, Elijah fell to Klaus's side immediately but Klaus couldn't even get to his feet. Ansel threw whatever promise he gave to Esther, that meant nothing to him as he heard his son whimper in pain, he came out from where he'd hidden in the tree's.

Ansel slipped to his knee's opposite Klaus and watched Elijah reach for the small blade on his waist, "I'm a friend of your mothers," he told them, "from the other village, I can take you to help you get healed up." He said and focused on Klaus, "would you tell me how bad it is?" He asked and Klaus looked just as distrustful as Elijah.

"There is nothing-"

"You are in pain, I know that." He said simply, "I can help you, if you tell me."

"Ribs... and my ankle." He said in a whisper.

"Okay," he said simply, "it is going to hurt for a little while longer." He told him before he picked him up.

"Wha-" Elijah started wide-eyed scrambling to his feet.

"Join us," he told him simply and started to walk.

Elijah looked uncomfortable, but followed, as he looked in the direction of their home but continued to follow him.

.

Klaus was sleeping and Elijah was sat at his side, their hands linked as Elijah watched Ansel, still unsure.

"I will not be harming either of you."

"We need to go home. Father will be mad, mother will be worried. And my siblings-"

"It is okay, I understand. I will be going to make sure your mother knows where you are." He told him, "you can sleep." Elijah shook his head, Ansel almost smiled, it was sweet that the boy was so protective, he probably couldn't have killed Ansel but he's sure Elijah would try if he thought he was enough of a threat. "Okay, I will allow you to stay here without me, I will be going to your mother. I will return soon." He offered.

"We should go-"

"You will stay here, and protect your brother, who needs his rest.

.

When Ansel returned it was with Kol, Rebekah and Henrik in his arms. Elijah was on his feet and reached for Henrik immediately and Rebekah and Kol attached themselves to him, then Rebekah noticed Klaus and rushed to him and fell to his side.

Elijah moved an arm to Kol's back as he held Henrik with the other hand. "Mother let you take us?" Elijah asked in a whisper.

"She knows I'm safe." Ansel told him simply, Elijah looked at Henrik then nodded and guided Kol towards the area he'd been sat with Klaus.

Amnesia AU - Elijah

Elijah was fine as he took the card from Hayley but as he did he stopped as... Something ran over him and he stumbled, missing what Hayley was saying as he dropped both of them hands moving to his head as he hit the floor. He felt hands on him just as his world went black.

He woke confused to someone calling his name, a man he didn't recognise, although he had rather pretty blue eyes. For a moment he was distracted by that, and the man seemed to notice, "hello, Elijah." He said lightly.

"Hello... do I know you?" He asked lightly.

The man stilled, "yes, of course, we were close."

"We were?" He asked confused then looked around, "where are my siblings?"

"Not here." He said simply.

Elijah hummed and noticed another woman knocked out at the other side of the room starting to wake, and seeing the binds on her wrists he noticed them on his own and looked at them.

"They're for your own good, it's-" He pulled his wrists up and broke them, the woman said his name quietly and he moved he'd grabbed her, and got her out of the room, stunningly fast, when they were outside he followed Her. Quietly. as she ranted about 'the Strix' and got into the metal... thing, and he did the same and they where suddenly moving, his hand gripped the handles, his eyes flicking between the scenery and the... thing they were sat in.

The woman got out after they stilled and he followed her, when they got into the building he relaxed, "Niklaus?" He said and Klaus looked to him immediately pleased.

"Elijah-"

"What's is happening?" He asked immediately, "everything is... wrong." He said and moved to his side, "I... where are we, how far are we from home?"

Klaus's smile faded slightly, "we are home?"

Elijah's eyes searched the room, "no, this isn't home. How do we get back to the village? Did we move?"

"What is happening?" The woman... brunette woman that brought him here, there was another woman with Klaus.

"I don't... Elijah-"

"Where are our siblings Niklaus?"

"Rebekah is searching for something."

"... Kol? Henrik?" He asked him immediately and Klaus stilled.

"What?"

"Where are Kol and Henrik?"

"Elijah, Henrik... What did you do before you came here?"

"A man with... shocking blue eyes had me. There was pain, and... I was hunting with father before that." He offered.

"That was a thousand years ago, Elijah."

Amnesia AU - Damon. Dalaric Version

Alaric woke after being Stabbed to a very confused Damon, the room was clear but Damon was there holding his head. "Damon?" He said and moved over to him and moved a hand to his friend, "you good?"

Damon looked up at him and frowned, "... who are you?"

"Okay, fun joke." He sighed, "really, what happened?"

"I have... no idea. Do you know where my brother is? If I lost him..." He trailed off looking uncomfortable. Alaric looked genuinely confused then Damon's phone rang and Alaric reached for it. "And what is That? It keeps going-"

"Its a phone." Alaric said and turned it on speaker, "Stefan, I need you to get home."

'What happened-'

"Stefan?" Damon spoke up suddenly, warmth and worry, "what-" He started staring at the phone in confusion.

'Damon, whats going on-"

"You're in a box." He said and reached for the phone and Alaric stepped back.

"Get here Stefan. He was asking who I was."

'Okay, we're coming.' Stefan said immediately then the phone clicked.

Alaric stared at him as he sat down, "what year is it?"

"1861." Damon said simply. "You don't know the year."

"Oh, no. I do. Its... not that."

"Then what do you think it is?"

"2009." He said then moved and grabbed a newspaper, Damon's old fashioned habit helped out here. "Look." He pointed to the date.

Damon stared then looked up at him, "oh... then how-"

"Lets wait for your brother, okay, buddy?" He said softly and moved a hand over his shoulder, then his back.

Damon looked to him properly, he can't Remember him but there was heat that rushed through him, a pleased rush at the touch or just being around him. He looked back to the newspaper and took it to distract himself from whatever That was.

Amnesia AU - Klaus Edition

(won the poll - although, I did do the others so... they'll be posted Later)

Freya remembered the slight smile on Elijah's lips as he held Hope and talked about what Klaus was like when they were human. The fun, softer Klaus who made paint and made little figures for his siblings. The one that never risked harming one of their siblings outside of training or play fighting.

Honestly, she was probably wasn't thinking clearly, she was thinking about the mess that the months had been, Hayley cursed, Elijah hating him, Rebekah away from them all after her having to fix the witch body she was in.

She made a rash decision as she looked through a grimoire, not hers, one of the ones that Elijah and Kol had collected over the years.

As the spell ended there was a crash, Elijah and Freya both rushed towards it to see Klaus unconscious on the ground. "What happened?" Elijah asked as he approached him to check on him and looked to Freya as she stared, looking slightly guilty and a little wide eyed. "Freya-"

"I did a spell." She told him, "I thought him a little more like his human self."

"And..?"

"And maybe the spell says there could... would be, an extra affect of them not remembering their current life."

"You've given our brother Magically induced Amnesia?" He asked dryly.

"Essentially."

Klaus let out a low groan and shifted, eyes opening, "Elijah..?" He said carefully and Elijah looked down at him instead.

"Niklaus," he said softly, "what do you remember?"

"I..." he frowned but trailed off and reached to tug at Elijah's tie, "what are you wearing?"

"Focus, little brother, last thing you remember?"

"It is the full moon tomorrow night, Henrik wanted to watch the wolves with me." He said with a small free smile and Elijah softened completely.

"It's been a long time since then Niklaus, a thousand years." He said gently.

Pick an AU for me to either make a moodboard/graphic of! (Expanded below)

What If - Elijah anger turned on Klaus after Aurora's confession

What if - After Celestes death and klaus's/Kols sprees he takes Marcel and Runs

What if - Ansel takes all the kids after he realises how bad Mikael treats them

Amnesia Damon - Shy/hiding flirting with Alaric

If people care enough to look at the list I attached, feel free to request one!

Voting ended onAug 12

Full list of them here

What if Elijah didn't let Klaus off with it, (11th Century addition), After Aurora's confession about Klaus killing their mother, Elijah turns his anger on Klaus instead. Leading to Klaus running alone with Aurora(maybe also Lucien), and when Tristan follows, HE is the one to compel Tristan to be Elijah.

What if Elijah didn't let Klaus off with it, (19th Century addition), Elijah after Celestes death and then his brothers murder spree's, he decides to take Marcel and leave, without warning them.

What if Ansel becomes their dad, Ansel notices just how badly Mikael is actually hurting His son, and the other children, and decides he can fix it to take them.

Sweetheart Damon being Pre Soldier Damon, Before Katherine. He's a Big Brother before anything. He cares about his Family. Damon found himself interested in Alaric, and tries to be Subtle about it when he's flirting, because last he knew, its illegal.

Sweetheart Klaus, Human personality. Little brother Klaus, protective and genuine with his siblings. Cares and shows it all with his heart on his sleeve. Klaus doesn't know how it all happened, but one moment he'd been practicing fighting, the next the world was different, he finds out he's a wolf, has a baby and his siblings are mad at him.

Elijahs in human era was a Farmer, a protector. Someone who was finally starting his relationship with a woman he'd been pining over (as shown in canon ofc) - Tristan had argued with the witches that it would be helpful, that he knew the weaknesses of Elijah of that Era, that he'd have more control. He forgot a few facts about just who raised Elijah as he was reasoning this out though.

[whoreallyevenknowsanyway]

Extra one before I sleep. (Self imposed Challenge - don't overload on Elijah options)

choose an AU -

WHAT IF - bonnie didn't fight for Stefan to be free. Leading to a Bennett Coven

What If - John was a teen parent rather than Elena being adopted

What If - Only One Salvatore Came Back

What If - Esther married Mikael on a deal to bring Dahlia with them.

What If - Mikael did kill Elijah in 1919

What If - Kol was a syphoner before he was turned

Voting ended on8h

Expanded:

Bonnie listens to Sheila, the boys stay trapped with the other vampires(likely until Elijah turns up), but also leads to Lucy sticking around. And then Jonas/Luka joining their small Coven and working together.

Her mom still leaves, but John Wants to raise his child. It's his daughter, so he's in high school, and raising a daughter, with the help of his brother. Rather then giving up all rights.

Main thought - Damon(my personal thought) returns while Stefan is avoiding the town, and Damon's stalking has nothing holding him back, Zach has no buffer. [may also do Stefan. But Damon is more interesting here]

Esther only agrees to marry Mikael if he finds a way to free and allow Dahlia to live with them as her 'wedding gift'.

Mikael either breaks his fancy stake in half or, accidentally in the fight for the white oak, ends up killing Elijah, not just using a piece of random wood. Klaus and Rebekah running alone. Leaving marcel behind.

Kol doesn't lose his magic when he turns, instead he Gains it. Nature/Magic isn't happy, Esther doesn't know just how to take it. But Kol loves it.

[whoreallyevenknowsanyway]

#but I would like to offer: AU where mikael manages to get klaus too somehow and rebekah is by herself - @icarusofathousanddays

This is mean, but... yeah, good choice.

Mikael, who's mad/vaguely grieving that he just killed Elijah and rather then mocking Klaus, he just drives the last of the white oak into Klaus's heart in the theatre. So, no games. He decides he wants his daughter back, and debates waking his last two sons from the coffins.

Rebekah now very possibly has the Worst of her family trying to Keep her now.

'by herself' but also... very much not.

[icarusofathousanddays]

Who is your favorite (failed or successful) family annihilator in TVDU?

Damon (no one said it had to be HIS family, the Whitmores would like a word)

Esther (succeeds in killing none of them, she even brings two of them back)

Finn (they keep stopping him from fulfilling his destiny of being on First 48)

Gemini Coven (as an institution, all that blood helps keep the gears turning)

Giuseppe (lets get shot dead with papa)

Kai (would have gotten away with it too, if it wasn't for those meddling twins)

Klaus (temporarily stabbing them to death still counts as killing them)

Marcel (when you go low (kill his daughter) he goes lower (we go down swinging))

Mikael (going for a 200% completion rate)

I have someone else in mind!

Remaining time: 6 days 4 hours

When the story has a sequence where the characters each get personally tortured with their exact personalized greatest fears and traumas

[crimsonlyinglilly]

Finn, after death gets the choice to swap places with a sibling in a new life, who does he choose?

Freya, he can spare her from Dahlia

He doesn't change a thing

Elijah, he decides to give Elijah what he wanted

Klaus, its one way to ensure he doesn't get daggered and left

Kol, maybe he'll be better as the gifted witch than Kol, more useful to Esther

Rebekah, being the 'youngest' sibling forever rather than daggered forever

Henrik, a chance to be the youngest and dying before being monsters.
