Summary: What if Katherine was in Growing Pains when Elena was turning into a vampire? What if Klaus hadn't been there to pull Caroline and Rebekah out in Tyler's body? What if Caroline and Rebekah had had an unexpected helper?
It was a beautiful day, as Elena opened her eyes to see that she was in her room at home. Stefan and Damon were in the room with her, Damon seated on a chair by the door, Stefan seated on a chair in front of her bed.745Please respect copyright.PENANAGI0C1HOin1
She sat up.745Please respect copyright.PENANA86vGuWXFVy
"You've been in and out for hours," Stefan said.745Please respect copyright.PENANA09Mt6aXoLA
"What happened? How did you save me?" she asked.745Please respect copyright.PENANAHnKSKEItVj
"He didn't," Damon told her.745Please respect copyright.PENANACPuZQOtjpf
"Wait. What?"745Please respect copyright.PENANACic1VifALh
Stefan explained to her what Meredith had done.745Please respect copyright.PENANA3F8zvvhrWm
"So what? Am I dead?"745Please respect copyright.PENANAre8XMRTjAt
"You're in transition. You're not fully alive and you're not fully dead."745Please respect copyright.PENANAuLLKrgAMJ0
"No. I can't be."745Please respect copyright.PENANArYZZZj5Zc0
"I have Bonnie looking into it. She might be able to reverse it."745Please respect copyright.PENANAjrc7GeS5Lc
"No. You feed or you die. There's no third door," Damon said before getting up and leaving the room.
He went downstairs to the kitchen to get a shot glass of liquor from Elena's cupboard.745Please respect copyright.PENANAduEEgpSj4u
Stefan came down the stairs just then and into the kitchen.745Please respect copyright.PENANAGGWyz8vBpP
He watched his elder brother.745Please respect copyright.PENANAvJgS1A5I43
"You know, you can't do anything about it," Damon told his brother. "If she doesn't feed by this afternoon, she'll die tonight."745Please respect copyright.PENANA0dEnWnDIbH
"Damon, you weren't there when Elena looked me in the eye and told me she didn't want to become a vampire. We still have a day before she has to turn."745Please respect copyright.PENANA7D9nBsvuCT
"Whatever. Always the hero," Damon commented, grabbing his glass from the counter and slowly sipping it.745Please respect copyright.PENANAisNHmVl9Dc
Stefan left the room, as Damon finished his drink.
745Please respect copyright.PENANAkDWNHYb0tL
Back at Elena's room, Elena was looking in her mirror, as her hearing intensified. It was so intense; she could hear the electricity running through a light bulb and she looking down at it, once she had entered the hallway outside her room.745Please respect copyright.PENANAmQWEXjyPKB
Her younger brother, Jeremy, walked over to her from down the other end of the hallway.745Please respect copyright.PENANAePcz0wQ2qX
"Jer," she greeted.745Please respect copyright.PENANAvFwba6vU1u
They hugged.745Please respect copyright.PENANAXHmd0ocvyj
"Are you okay? I watched Vicki go through this, she was a mess. Her emotions were all over the place. All these old memories came flooding back."745Please respect copyright.PENANAngAqwWMPBL
Elena glanced over at the light bulb again, but turned back to face Jeremy again.745Please respect copyright.PENANAZ3OoAmoXhV
"I'm fine. I'm not Vicki."745Please respect copyright.PENANAEEEzcJ9pWC
"No, you're not. You're act like everything's okay so no one worries about you but you need help."745Please respect copyright.PENANAGc8LwA4vpF
Elena kept glancing at the light bulb.745Please respect copyright.PENANAbzEfY5WEiL
"I said I'm fine, okay?" she said all snappy. "I-I'm sorry. I…Have you talked to Bonnie?" she then said more herself.745Please respect copyright.PENANAC4Hj2s22gY
"Yeah, she said when I was shot, she made some plea to the witch spirit to bring me back and they listened.745Please respect copyright.PENANA5b308K8OZ1
"Yeah, but the consequences were horrible."745Please respect copyright.PENANA6zGuDXa6i2
"And what could be more horrible than you turning into a vampire? I need my sister, not another one of them."
"We're going to find a way out of this. Everything's going to be okay."745Please respect copyright.PENANAuqIoqPn1D6
"I hope so."745Please respect copyright.PENANAtb4vc6Iq6h
Elena watched her only brother leave. She then turned around at the light bulb in the lamp and strode over to it. Then she pulled off the lampshade and crushed the light bulb in her hand.
Bonnie was in the Lockwood cellar, staring at Klaus' desiccated body which was lying in a coffin.745Please respect copyright.PENANA8jPbTaUTqx
"It's beautiful, isn't it?" Klaus said.745Please respect copyright.PENANAgve0qpJPzl
Bonnie turned around and saw Klaus in Tyler's body entering the cellar.745Please respect copyright.PENANAbD66i81Cta
"What is that doing here, Klaus? The deal we made with Tyler was that you'd leave his body and jump into someone else's the first chance you got."745Please respect copyright.PENANAfLdvQXL3L3
"Yes, when I assumed I'd be a pile of ash. But apparently, fate and oxygen intervened and there I am."745Please respect copyright.PENANAfbdctWRfr8
Klaus walked towards the coffin.745Please respect copyright.PENANA8BGcmPWU09
"Put me back."745Please respect copyright.PENANADXdh4qmgoE
"I can't right now."745Please respect copyright.PENANAPtkUFYfU7K
"Your history teacher outed Tyler and Caroline to the Council. They're on a war path and this body's vulnerable."745Please respect copyright.PENANAn57JnEf9lY
"I have to help Elena before she has to feed."745Please respect copyright.PENANAIpqpy3rWjF
"Elena's dead and no longer my concern."745Please respect copyright.PENANAipz3UUWPWb
"You're forgetting who just saved your life."745Please respect copyright.PENANAoN7BK0sF76
Klaus grabbed Bonnie by the throat.745Please respect copyright.PENANAER6uf7tpsf
"And you're forgetting that I could rip your tongue out. Now put me back."745Please respect copyright.PENANAwfb06Scc5L
"If I can keep Elena human, you'll still have an endless blood supply to make your hybrids. Isn't that what you really want?"745Please respect copyright.PENANAVIe16vuVCt
Klaus released Bonnie.745Please respect copyright.PENANAwb9zmC19CG
Bonnie started to leave, but Klaus was instantly in front of her and blocked her way out.745Please respect copyright.PENANATJG5gnluUQ
"Same rules apply. No one knows. No one. Do you understand me, Bonnie?"
Meredith was walking down the hallway of the hospital, when Pastor Young and some deputies approached her.745Please respect copyright.PENANA0k5oiGJBgI
She stopped.745Please respect copyright.PENANAGJspGC48gQ
"Pastor Young. To what do we owe the honor? And don't tell me it's your blood pressure again."745Please respect copyright.PENANAgdOGS8PlpH
"Honestly, I wish it were."745Please respect copyright.PENANAlfaPlmiFzl
He turned to the deputies behind them.745Please respect copyright.PENANAGe9wxDrJi5
"Blood bank's in the basement. One of you sweep the rooms."745Please respect copyright.PENANALypEh4vbnJ
"Who gave you that authority?" Meredith questioned.745Please respect copyright.PENANA0e88niAHkf
"The Council. They're entrusted me to secure the town and unlike some of our Founding Families, I don't have conflicting interests."745Please respect copyright.PENANAFOTZSA3CrS
"What is that supposed to mean?"745Please respect copyright.PENANAFSKb3Ctg4b
"Alaric Saltzman told us everything, Meredith. Probably time to start looking for a new job."745Please respect copyright.PENANAin8gOeAl1R
Pastor Young left Meredith there.745Please respect copyright.PENANAeX0Xd9nPnJ
Caroline was talking to Matt before there were interrupted by a deputy opening the door. But Caroline was quick and was instantly out of sight before the door even opened.745Please respect copyright.PENANAgCpchRs31Z
"Can I help you?" Matt asked the officer.745Please respect copyright.PENANAcjF0Ia9Xmf
"Sorry."745Please respect copyright.PENANAMCv7fupbJF
He got on his dispatch and said, "All good here."745Please respect copyright.PENANAa5Ijn5UJdh
He exited the room and closed the door.
An officer handcuffed Carol Lockwood at the Lockwood Mansion. Pastor Young stood nearby.745Please respect copyright.PENANAnHvrYRlM2T
"What's going on?" she asked.745Please respect copyright.PENANA9YsggUnIWd
The officer started to lead Carol out of her house.745Please respect copyright.PENANAd2NZY238Gd
"We just need to ask you a few questions about your son."745Please respect copyright.PENANANtTg1Zm2CL
"You can't arrest me! I'm the Mayor of this town!"745Please respect copyright.PENANAALqRW4fHt2
"Not anymore you're not."
Sheriff Forbes was walking to the police department when Pastor Young stopped her.745Please respect copyright.PENANAE0v50cVF7e
"Sorry, Liz. You're not going to work today."745Please respect copyright.PENANASS0fTyKBoW
"What are you talking about?"745Please respect copyright.PENANANRShUfDGRV
The deputies surrounded the two of them.745Please respect copyright.PENANA40a4IGoEbj
"They're taking your badge. You're not fit to protect us anymore."745Please respect copyright.PENANAu8siWYn0GH
"You have no idea what you're up against."745Please respect copyright.PENANAX7h6Vo5ujI
"On the contrary Liz, I've already taken your deputies. We've got the entire town's supply of vervain, including the stash we found in the Salvatore house. We're making our move."
Caroline was heading out of the Forbes' residence, when her mother called her.745Please respect copyright.PENANAHYfQ7S7bD7
"Where are you? And please tell me it's somewhere faraway," Liz told her daughter.745Please respect copyright.PENANA6W3ZbkrDfb
"Where am I? Uh…good question. Uh…there's just a whole lot of boring highways. Why, is everything okay?"745Please respect copyright.PENANAVSqpXxhDSX
Suddenly, an officer snuck up behind her and stabbed her in the side of her neck with a syringe.745Please respect copyright.PENANA3vzVn71ub6
"Caroline, what's going on?" Liz asked.745Please respect copyright.PENANAInmEHf3S4S
The phone hit the porch.
Elena and Stefan were in the kitchen.745Please respect copyright.PENANAJyDjCHKxWS
Elena took a bite of a sandwich.745Please respect copyright.PENANATMInMEmAsq
"It's disgusting," Stefan commented, watching her.745Please respect copyright.PENANA60S5cfFXZX
"No it's, um…"745Please respect copyright.PENANAXaCEdAwJ43
"It's disgusting," he repeated.745Please respect copyright.PENANAX69wQljku0
She spit it out onto a napkin.745Please respect copyright.PENANA2yrR1s57Ho
"I never thought I would say this, but I can't stop thinking about blood."745Please respect copyright.PENANANTHEAmlPn7
"I should have saved you first. You shouldn't be going through this now."
"No, if you have saved me, then Matt would be dead. What do you think I'd be going through then?"745Please respect copyright.PENANAzoTZXAvHRY
Stefan poured himself a drink and took a sip.745Please respect copyright.PENANAQQRetyKWN8
Elena got up and walked over to him.745Please respect copyright.PENANA3DBIHxlKFD
"Stefan, listen to me. You did the right thing. You did what you always do. You respected my choice."745Please respect copyright.PENANAatAOsfMbi3
"And what am I supposed to do if Bonnie can't figure out a way to help you? Because then you have another choice to make. Either let yourself die or be a vampire."745Please respect copyright.PENANACYFjpuINUp
"Well, then we'll cross that bridge when we get there."745Please respect copyright.PENANARL1qJhDGUh
Suddenly, Elena started laughing.745Please respect copyright.PENANAAzfiUNXsfd
"Oh my God, did-did I just say "cross that bridge"?"745Please respect copyright.PENANA8xDqwcXTEs
Elena started laughing maniacally.745Please respect copyright.PENANA7iqgwvQpL0
"You're laughing. I'm pretty sure you don't actually think that's funny."745Please respect copyright.PENANAZzWrRkkeNN
"I can't stop though," she said, continuing to laugh.745Please respect copyright.PENANAYsINq5vBmK
"Your emotions are a bit heightened today. A lot heightened."745Please respect copyright.PENANAbCBrhnwKdS
She continued laughing but then started to cry.745Please respect copyright.PENANADMO0Pj7fkX
He hugged her.745Please respect copyright.PENANAejdy05RDmL
"Hey, shh, shh. It's okay. It's okay."745Please respect copyright.PENANAmTapsUhSGn
"I'm sorry. I…"745Please respect copyright.PENANAC5VTdSlA3S
He pulled away and caressed her face.745Please respect copyright.PENANABU3X3bEVUa
"Listen to me. No matter what happens, I'm here for you. I can help you."745Please respect copyright.PENANA5jGbTplKA9
Elena looked out the window and squinted her eyes due to the brightness of the sunlight.745Please respect copyright.PENANAfGMRdOfmEh
"Why don't you go back upstairs where it's dark? I'll clean up."745Please respect copyright.PENANA1DsWckGb9U
Elena started to walk away and shielded her eyes from the sun.745Please respect copyright.PENANAjZVjeJFtKq
She walked up the stairs into her room where she started to remember something that a while back, Damon had compelled her to forget.
*Flashback*
"Cute PJ's," Damon commented, sitting on her windowsill.745Please respect copyright.PENANAENZBFkr8E1
"I'm tired, Damon."745Please respect copyright.PENANAGQgT8hPpwZ
Damon got up and walked over to Elena, holding up her vervain necklace.745Please respect copyright.PENANA5WsZQrnFSD
"I brought you this."745Please respect copyright.PENANA6EzDsbExPf
"I thought it was gone. Thank you."745Please respect copyright.PENANAxdFo4VOwmp
Elena tried to take it from Damon, but he pulled it back.745Please respect copyright.PENANAuAK4GkSA18
"Please give it back."745Please respect copyright.PENANAnVBHPh9gYd
"I just have to say something."745Please respect copyright.PENANApvs8MzD6WI
"Why do you have to say it with my necklace?"745Please respect copyright.PENANAClEsWSA3TQ
"Because what I'm about to say is probably the most selfish thing I've ever said in my life."745Please respect copyright.PENANA2V2K9vMjSJ
"Damon, don't go there."745Please respect copyright.PENANArkmBZm9Ua9
"No, I just have to say it once. You just need to hear it. I love you, Elena. And it's because I love you, that I can't be selfish with you. Why you can't know this? I don't deserve you, but my brother does."745Please respect copyright.PENANAX7FH10pUEB
Damon kissed Elena on the forehead.745Please respect copyright.PENANA7ZNz01y2BI
"God, I wish you didn't have to forget this. But you do."745Please respect copyright.PENANAxzj8CC3dKg
Damon compelled Elena to forget.
*End of flashback*
Elena touched her neck and looked down.
Rebekah looked at pictures Klaus had drawn at the Original house. She picked one up and began to choke up, almost crying. She threw the pictures down and knocked the rest of them off the table in a fit of rage.745Please respect copyright.PENANAeiMHBsqZJ1
Damon entered the room behind her.745Please respect copyright.PENANALDaw6MULOG
"You should know better than to sneak up on a lady."745Please respect copyright.PENANAhqYvzqB9Q7
"Good advice. Have you seen one?"745Please respect copyright.PENANAAPV1kjBAkW
Rebekah turned around to face him.
"Tragic about Elena. Not to make a grey cloud grayer, but does Matt even have automobile insurance?"745Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4rU0OW1Q5
Rebekah turned back around.745Please respect copyright.PENANAhA1uwfLle6
Damon rushed at her with the indestructible white oak stake. She grabbed his wrist and prevented him from killing her. She pushed him against a dresser and he dropped the stake.745Please respect copyright.PENANASs4JsIgPmd
Suddenly, someone started firing wooden bullets through the window. Damon managed to escape, but Rebekah was shot in the heart with an arrow and fell to the ground.
Elena picked up a photo of her with her parents and looked at it a bit.745Please respect copyright.PENANAd1EXqlReHK
Suddenly, she heard a commotion downstairs and walked down the stairs.745Please respect copyright.PENANAQsTm3aFMWL
"Stefan?"745Please respect copyright.PENANAXOHOVdBRBF
"Elena, don't move."745Please respect copyright.PENANAzAngifFGfZ
Elena stopped on the stair case. Stefan was surrounded by officers and the Pastor. The officers all had their guns pointed towards him. Elena looked at the Pastor and back at Stefan.
Later, Rebekah started to wake up.745Please respect copyright.PENANAZsCRdfxWdu
When she came to, she saw that her and Caroline were in a van being transported somewhere. Caroline was sitting beside her and watching her. Rebekah struggled to get out of the ropes that held her.745Please respect copyright.PENANAxicfeYHddu
"Vervain ropes. Looks like Alaric outed us all to the Council," she told the Original sister.745Please respect copyright.PENANAc9TiFk9oET
"The Council? What exactly do they think they can do to me?"745Please respect copyright.PENANA6SjENsXopf
Suddenly, the wheels of the van started to screech. The van flipped over. Caroline and Rebekah went flying. The van landed on its side.745Please respect copyright.PENANABNKEGdEEiC
"What the hell happened?" Rebekah questioned.745Please respect copyright.PENANAIvrnx6GhkI
Just then, someone opened the door. Someone unexpected.745Please respect copyright.PENANAQuM80e95y0
"Katherine?" Caroline said in shock.
She knelt down at her side and ripped the ropes off her, ignoring the pain from touching them. She then did the same for Rebekah.745Please respect copyright.PENANA6kr3Pz4LMF
"No time. Come on. Let's go," Katherine said, helping them both to their feet one by one.745Please respect copyright.PENANAdUKx43iY7g
Then the three girls left the scene.
Damon was picking things up that had been knocked down during the commotion, when Liz walked into the Gilbert House and Meredith came into the living room where they were at from the kitchen.745Please respect copyright.PENANAldkOUZHdwq
"They're gone. Whoever nailed Rebekah, took them too. Please tell me you have something. Anything," Damon said.745Please respect copyright.PENANADVOAVLvXNJ
"I can't. The Council locked Carol and me out of our offices. Files, computers, everything," Liz answered him.745Please respect copyright.PENANAhL3l7vYQw8
"So, the Mayor and the Sheriff never contemplated a backup plan, Liz?"745Please respect copyright.PENANAA6IEwwZa0w
"Damon, relax. When Caroline called to say she got away; did they know where they were planning to take her?" Meredith said.745Please respect copyright.PENANAx1gHsP19EQ
"No. Just that she was in some van in the middle of nowhere and she managed to escape," Liz answered her.745Please respect copyright.PENANAAGnm7VHkzh
"Perfect. We've narrowed it down to nowhere," Damon implied.745Please respect copyright.PENANAeY5WTnNvtl
Someone knocked on the front door and then Matt entered the house.745Please respect copyright.PENANAP2U4eaoqYx
"Hey, is Elena here?"745Please respect copyright.PENANAwx0OQkZrHj
Damon turned around and rushed towards Matt. He grabbed him by the throat and pinned him to the wall, choking him.745Please respect copyright.PENANAztddKxMAGY
"In what world are you the one that gets to live?!"745Please respect copyright.PENANATybcznyXgz
Meredith tried to pull Damon off of him.745Please respect copyright.PENANAfy7oGYkGoW
"Damon, stop! It wasn't his fault!" Meredith said.745Please respect copyright.PENANAw7d73SdcdJ
"Let him go, Damon! Now!" Liz said.745Please respect copyright.PENANA5gbdWcnuvv
Matt tried to pry Damon's arm off his throat.745Please respect copyright.PENANA0K0FuDwgvN
Damon finally released him.
Just then, someone unexpected arrived along with Rebekah and Caroline.745Please respect copyright.PENANABCHQl46oGO
"Katherine," Damon said, looking at her.745Please respect copyright.PENANAgdUull9lM5
"Damon," she said back. "I heard what Alaric cooked up. I'm here to help. In fact, I saved Caroline and Rebekah. So here we are."745Please respect copyright.PENANAnrCEBrTABg
Liz and Caroline hugged.745Please respect copyright.PENANAP8JHUide3b
Rebekah stood against a faraway wall.745Please respect copyright.PENANA5uNPM2pT34
"Why would you go to such a length to help?" Damon inquired of his sire.745Please respect copyright.PENANATBLziXYutN
"Because it means my family is in danger. I also heard from somewhere what's happening with Elena. I want to help her. But that first thing is finding where they took them."745Please respect copyright.PENANAzvY4EscWdD
"Yes. And how are do you suppose we do that? We don't know where the hell to look."745Please respect copyright.PENANAQIFcn0WJ8O
"I don't know. There might be a place somewhere where they could've taken them. It's out in the country where nobody would look."745Please respect copyright.PENANAXPxmtDIFaE
She gave him a smile.745Please respect copyright.PENANASRRLnzK5ov
"Let's check it out."
Elena woke up in a barn on the floor. She looked around her. Vampires were coughing due to the vervain being ventilated through their cages. Elena sat up while holding her head.745Please respect copyright.PENANAm5r8KhlDkX
"Where am I?" she questioned.745Please respect copyright.PENANA2U71X51pPv
"They thought you were a vampire, so they brought you in here. Elena, are you okay?" Stefan answered from the cage adjacent to Elena's cage.745Please respect copyright.PENANAg1dUnWJWPt
"Stefan."745Please respect copyright.PENANApdVMbkjds4
Elena tried to pull herself up but was too weak to do so.745Please respect copyright.PENANADm5K13CDJV
"I didn't feed."745Please respect copyright.PENANAlsA2nzPNlB
Stefan looked worried.745Please respect copyright.PENANAWfPe6TAHK4
Elena began to get paler.
It was a dark night as Katherine, Damon, Caroline, Rebekah, Matt, Liz, and Meredith headed for the old ranch where the Pastor lived at.
745Please respect copyright.PENANAYFGIBfEkCH
Back in the barn, things were turning to worst for Elena and Stefan felt helpless to help her at all this time.745Please respect copyright.PENANA8rur55wyet
"Elena? You still with me?" he called to her from where he sat against the wall that divided him from Elena.745Please respect copyright.PENANAgAggNK7lk9
Elena sat on the other side of the wall. She was even paler and was breathing heavily.745Please respect copyright.PENANAUOj7FDMuoI
"Yeah. Yeah, I'm here. I'm okay."745Please respect copyright.PENANAim5KbHWn3J
"No, you're not. I can hear you breathing. Damon was right. You should have fed earlier. I'm so sorry."745Please respect copyright.PENANAx7iaxRDjqf
"Don't be. You had hope. That's all I ever wanted you to have and you had it."745Please respect copyright.PENANAy6PIAD2QYV
"I love you so much."745Please respect copyright.PENANAPvNwjAmC9w
Stefan started to cry silent tears.745Please respect copyright.PENANAl8PbW0sX5y
"I love you. No matter what happens, it's the best choice I ever made," Elena said.745Please respect copyright.PENANAN3PjnryDQu
She placed her hand against the wall dividing them.745Please respect copyright.PENANAgsBrAezMyV
"God. It sucks that I can't see you right now."745Please respect copyright.PENANAlEdvz0aZY7
"I'm smiling."745Please respect copyright.PENANAWKRPumy5lc
"Me too."745Please respect copyright.PENANAOVkjpu0zwG
Elena took her hand from the wall and closed her eyes.
While the others did the distraction to lure some of them out of the house, Katherine went to the rescue, following their scent, which soon led her to the barn where all the vampires and Elena were being held.745Please respect copyright.PENANAAPsCUwm7u9
She walked in and scanned the place.745Please respect copyright.PENANAeqVAJwUa5Z
Normally, she would've gotten Stefan out first, but seeing Elena, she knew she was the worst off.745Please respect copyright.PENANAAgu96EuGl7
She rushed over to her cage and immediately broke the lock and opened the door. Then she knelt by her.745Please respect copyright.PENANAoFnh4pl7Wx
"Elena?" she called softly.745Please respect copyright.PENANAgspqtZk80C
She didn't answer.
Kat gently picked her up in her arms. She knew she was still alive, but was running out of precious time.745Please respect copyright.PENANA1HXBajFejB
She looked back at Stefan, once outside of Elena's cage.745Please respect copyright.PENANAC4iL5rD3eC
"I'll be back for you."745Please respect copyright.PENANAaRBs58CBtm
Stefan watched, as Kat disappeared at vamp speed with Elena in her arms, so she could save Elena for once. At least, he hoped that's what she was going to do. He didn't want to lose Elena. He loved her too much.
Once outside in the front yard, she gently layed Elena down on the ground.745Please respect copyright.PENANANP0ugYUjgp
Kat looked up.745Please respect copyright.PENANA3gN9rjx1WC
"Matt!" she called to him.745Please respect copyright.PENANAnYbmQMDh8r
He went over to them.745Please respect copyright.PENANAMobR5V4kd8
"You need to let her feed on you."745Please respect copyright.PENANAbKSUzYziWV
A few minutes later, Elena woke up as a vampire.745Please respect copyright.PENANAND4bRpr29p
Kat helped her sit up.745Please respect copyright.PENANAwjuPguoiKs
"How do you feel?" she questioned her descendant, as everyone went over to them.745Please respect copyright.PENANAOpAaeTU5t5
"Better. Thanks," Elena said, even though she wasn't sure what she felt about being a vampire now.745Please respect copyright.PENANAOdWZD2xSH1
"Good. I'll be back."745Please respect copyright.PENANAzr8NwFPGnS
And with that, she vanished into the barn to go rescue Stefan and the other vampires that had been captured.
An hour later, the Pastor and the Council were in the Pastor's house. Pastor Young released the gas hose from the back of his stove.745Please respect copyright.PENANAmBaNjgqJ6S
"Folks, by now, you know that the vampires have escaped. And it won't be long before they retaliate against us. But fear not. For I have been chosen to lead us in a movement," he told them, as he locked the door.745Please respect copyright.PENANAlQZ4JxjoQF
"What are you talking about?" one of the Council Members asked.
"Hear me, loved ones. Soon you'll be free to pass through the gates."745Please respect copyright.PENANAiXO8vRVBXS
He pulled a lighter out of his pocket.745Please respect copyright.PENANA3EB2fflkCX
"And we'll all reunite in eternity."745Please respect copyright.PENANA20h95u1IUN
"Seriously, Pastor, what's going on here?" the council member tried again.745Please respect copyright.PENANASdP98aHnYX
"Friends. We are the beginning," Pastor Young finished.745Please respect copyright.PENANA1MY5Q2WoaG
The Pastor lit the light and the Council members screamed with fear as the kitchen was set ablaze.
Damon and Elena sat on the porch at the Salvatore boarding house.745Please respect copyright.PENANAxsEx9wndL5
They were silent, as they looked out into the darkness.745Please respect copyright.PENANABocE9c1eAZ
Finally, Elena spoke.745Please respect copyright.PENANAtaKNVid9iv
"Damon."745Please respect copyright.PENANAKBLSuL9oBz
She looked at him.745Please respect copyright.PENANAnF83cWDkYI
He looked at her as he said, "Yeah?"745Please respect copyright.PENANAdc6GEROOWA
