I kneel down beside Damon Salvatore and force fed him some blood.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkh8MWPpg6r
"Come on, Damon. Wake up," I say, pleading with him, wondering what's wrong.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoXo3RpbPI
I toss the empty blood bag onto the floor and look him over, remembering Klaus saying he's unclean. And that's when I see it. The werewolf bite.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJ3KLlgxOy
"No," I say. "No. Damon."799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4sTftuaGP
I take his phone out and call my doppelganger.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLDhebBpW1
"Elena, it's me. We have a problem. Did Damon tell you if he was bitten by a werewolf or not? He has a werewolf bite on his arm. And I can't get him up. Can you come over?" I say, before she can say anything.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRu7lOZxrV
"I didn't know. I'll be right over."799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgs6Paf62q
She hangs up and I put his phone back.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw85yXrALwR
"Please wake up, Damon," I beg.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiw9R1Lk6ln
I gently slap his cheek to see if that'll work.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixf2KmhqPQ
I wait.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL00fkmrxSb
Nothing.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJn0iqGA4g
I take his hand in mine.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5dywqHhum
I can't lose you, Damon. Please wake up, I think to him.
Elena soon arrives and kneels down on the left side of him. The opposite side I'm on.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwItKYfYwZ4
"We need to get him home," I inform her.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7aLmBszoi
She sees that my ring is off I guess, because she had to ask me, "Where's your ring?"799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6pdr4e2tV
"I don't know. Klaus must've taken it. And we don't have time to waste. We'll have to manage. Even if I burn alive helping him. It's worth it. I owe him one and he's my family. Family is everything to me."
By the time we get him in bed, I'm burnt terribly. I lean against the wall by his bedroom door, back against the wall, my vision blurry, my focus going in and out, as I watch Elena standing at his bedside with a wet wash cloth.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPtLm7bik4
"We need Klaus' blood. That's the cure," I say as normal as I can.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJTwqupRgO
She hears my wavering voice, because she puts the cloth on his forehead and turns around to look at me.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHls6rSJsYX
"Katherine," she says.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnwMZHxKWG
I can smell her fear scent and concern for me.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ldVmsk3cJ
"Take care of Damon. He's more important," I tell her.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiGwnlswo5
"No. You're both important. What's happening to you?"799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzlyvmvr1R
"You really want to know the cold, hard truth? I got burnt too much. I'm dying."799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2je105q9s0
"I won't let you die, Katherine. What can I do?"799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnh67gdnK3i
"I don't know."799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgPVE2rQ2h
Alaric Saltzman walks in.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXNbea1ur4
"How's Damon doing?"799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbsMo5LmnS
"He needs the cure. Klaus' blood. And Katherine's dying, too. She got burnt helping me."799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKDasHQagW
"I'll take care of Katherine. You do what you have to," Alaric says.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaHxinNryv
I feel myself slide down the wall, as weakness starts to come.

I go to Katherine Pierce and catch her, as she starts to slide down the wall. I see she's weak, burnt badly, and fighting to stay awake. But how much longer can she fight? Even a vampire has to give up someday. And Katherine's been fighting constantly for 500 years. I have to try and help her, though. For Elena's sake.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhq86lkoDzF
"Katherine," I say. "Stay awake."799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2NaqRHwaM
Careful not to touch her burnt skin, I gently pick her up in my arms.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqL3kMmQMA4
"I'm going home," I tell Elena, before leaving with Katherine.
Not long afterward, I enter my apartment, closing the door behind myself. I then set her on her feet. I came here so Elena wouldn't know what's going to happen. I should probably kill Katherine now. Put her out of her misery with a stake through her heart. But for some reason, I can't find the will to do that to her.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDJRlJoI7y
"How are you feeling?" I ask, looking at her.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWo6kDTjcj
"Weak. I'm dying. Please. Kill me now."799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkQiP2mdie
"No. I'm not going to kill you. Look at me."799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW65hgRacFD
She looks at me, but is unsteady now.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XeTMrtAYF
I catch her from hitting the floor, as she collapses to the floor.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlprGfAo67
I gently lay her down on the floor and take my jacket off. I use my jacket to put under her head and see her skin start turning purple.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPmpkDDFlg
"No. You're not dying. Not today," I say.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFjWIKepJd
I check to see if she's breathing. Obviously, she's not. So, even though she's a vampire, I give her some breath before pulling her into my arms gently. She's breathing again, which is a good sign. I use a knife to cut my wrist, and I gently position her head back, putting my wrist to her lips, making it go down her throat.

I don't know how long I was out, but when I come to I'm feeling better. I look down at my arm and my bite mark is gone. That means I've been cured.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vczkGZdP6
I sit up in bed and look at Elena Gilbert. She's sitting on my bedside.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzb0MtHeRNE
"Thanks," I say.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7koVkev5R
"You should think, Katherine too. She was nearly burnt alive getting you here. Ric's at home helping her. She told me the cure before she nearly blacked out on us," she explains.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFEc26fq6h
Katherine. She almost died. But she'll be okay. I feel it, I think to myself.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2oyPhrJVY
"Then I'll think her when I see her again."799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnu5uaw11lH
Elena soon goes home and I go downstairs.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdOYTaD7HI
I stand by my drinking table and pour myself a shot glass of liquor, slowly sipping it.

I feel the familiar liquid once I awaken, and start drinking. But once I have my strength back, my senses come alert. I can hear someone's heart beating and hear breathing. And the blood is warm…so warm and fresh. And then I smell Alaric's scent. Everything comes flooding back and I realize I'm drinking from Alaric. He gave me his blood to save my life. He probably did it for Elena.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSf6cVYNEJ
I stop drinking and open my eyes.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuzfvMEJkf
I look up at him and know I nearly died. And that means I took a lot. He's very pale. I nearly killed Elena's guardian.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtIon3Lys0
I get to my feet, as does he.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4jonxDv9z
"Thanks," I say.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTnPGxKU0l
He leans against the counter with a hand on it.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLZzoUjYjN
"I'm sorry. I took too much," I apologize.
"It's my fault. I should've known how much a dying vampire would need."799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHI2eLjVa6g
He struggles to stay on his feet and breathe right.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN459oHVZvP
"You need blood, Alaric."799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNK0GM7cMv
"No," he argues.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VKY7EByGx
"Alaric, you're going to die."799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHJ3rbKJAC
"Then I'll die."799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGRniOaTdg
I hear his heart and breathing slow.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPomHDlTgfT
"I don't want you to."799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9yHfeYYXs
I look at his hand and his ring is off.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1v892biEd
No, I think to myself.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyWJNKlhdy
I look back up at his face to see him grow paler and then collapse to the floor.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKIjjVAlSV
At vamp speed, I'm instantly kneeling at his side. He's still breathing. Barely. This is all my fault. I've been so stupid today.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWrNIxI6Wk
I bite my wrist and put it to his lips, making my blood go down his throat to heal him. I listen, as it helps him get stronger, and watch as his color comes back to his skin. I know he didn't want this, but I'd rather him be angry at me, than for him to die.

I come to to see myself on myself on my back on my floor. Katherine is knelt at my side.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAdxaDjMcP
I sit up.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0FmFhJhb6
"Thank you."799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQ8hrhb1fH
"You're angry with me, but I'd rather you not be dead."799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfL5mKsEI1
"Well, at least you're not being a selfish bitch."799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XPXFDqtlH
"And those are strong words. I never thought I'd hear you call someone a selfish bitch."799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4K5vDCQH8i
She helps me to my feet.799Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiYyDo4S7S
We soon go back to the Salvatore boarding house, where we find that Damon's okay. I then go home.
and then Add to home screen.
