Hey guys , it's my first story . hope you enjoy!

5 years Ago

The Bennet resident was filled with melodious laughter of the three friends . Small jokes and pranks lead to a water fight as they run around the house spraying water on each other. The two humans exhausted , sat next the sofa , a peaceful smile on their face .

" Oh god , it was fun ! " giggling Carolina entered the room with a small cup in hand , which obviously the other two knew was blood . Elena smiled and got up , looking at the collection of books Bonnie had at her place . Her eye fell on an old book , which looked like a Grimoire . Picking it up , she brought it to the group and said " This looks interesting , where did you get it from Bonnie ?" smiling as she started going through the pages .

" Mom gave it to me when she came to meet me this week . I have not read it yet ! " shifting so Elena could sit in the center . The three of them looked carefully at each page when Carolina stopped at one in particular. Mates

" you wanna try ! come on Bon . let's fine our soul mates. maybe This will give the Salvatore's their answer for 'lena and we can fine our prince charming !" making a puppy face and looking at Bonnie . How could she refuse her best friend when she made a face like this . Bonnie sighed and nodded her head . " Sure why not ." before getting up to get the materials required for the spell. Elena smiled at the thought of finding someone who loved her , and not being involved in a tug of war . They moved to the backyard

Bonnie came back with some chalk , candles and thread . Drawing a large circle in the center , placing three candles and tying the candles base and lighting them up with her magic . The three of them sat down in the circle and joined hands. Taking a deep breath Bonnie started muttering the spell under her breath and the three of them could feel magic surging in their veins . A sudden pain erupted in their wrist as soon as Bonnie finished the spell . A small alphabet gracing the center of there wrist . They looked Down confused . Elena had An 'E' and both Carolina and Bonnie a 'K' .

" Wait !? we don't get to know who they are ? just a small alphabet ?! Caroline exclaimed and both Bonnie and Elena looked at the spell in the Grimoire . " It says that , this spell bring the two hearts together by fate . When time is right the pull will bring them together . The mark shows others that you already belong to someone . " Bonnie read and sighed. This is crap. The three of them sighed , dejected . picking the stuff up the went inside and changed . maybe a drink will help .

The Grill was filled with teenagers and other couples at this time of the day. The three girls made way to the bar and smiled at their friend.

" What can i get you ladies ! " The blue eyes quarterback asked.

"Hey Matt ! A scotch please . " Caroline put her hands under her chin and smiled . What could get better that having a best friend bartender . Bonnie and Elena asked for the same. unconsciously rubbing their new attained tattoo . Matt placed the three glasses in front of them and the thanked them .

" I really wish , we knew who they were . There are thousands of men with a name with K . How am i suppose to know who it is ! " grumbling and taking a sip of her drink while the other two chuckled. " Honestly Care , I think it's alright .It's like a mystery . The more we wait the more we value them ." Elena said, smiling at the thought . They smiled at their caring friend . This is the reason every one in their group of friends care for her . Elena was a person willed with love , strength and the contents need to protect her friends even though she knew she was a human and could end up dying . Talking with her friends , Elena did not notice someone standing next to her ordering and her elbow shook lightly as she tried to move , causing the glass to fall and break . Being who she is , she apologized to the person and moved to pick the broken piece up , only to cut the finger in process . she yelped which caught Carolina's mind and she frowned seeing her friend bleed .

" Well today is so totally not our day . i will go clean it up. " wincing as the small pieces of glass but the hand. Deciding to help her friend both Bonnie and Caroline went with her .

" Take my blood 'lena.Its a deep cut , and since our town has become one of the ideal vampire stop , you might attract attention ." she said , but Elena shook her head . " it's alright care . just a small cut ." she said and the other two rolled their eyes . " yeah a small cut which won't stop bleeding ." Bonnie interjected . Sighing Elena turned to her friends and nodded. Caroline opened her wrist real quick and Elena gulped down the blood , scrunching her nose at the taste. Moving away she shook her head and coughed a bit. Making sure they cleaned their faces they said byes to Matt and went back to Caroline's place . planning to spend the night , most probably watching a movie and talking .

" What are you doing here ! " Liz Forbes said frowning as she say the women responsible for her daughter's agony. Katherine smirked at the sheriff of the small town . " I am just returning the favour . I am sure Caroline will love my gift for her ." walking close to Elizabeth . The mother frowned as she quick dialed her daughter's number. Before she could even utter a word Katherine was in front of her .

" It did come to my notice that your daughter caught the eye of a certain hybrid .And being friends with my not so worthy doppelganger Elena it will sure add to the pain .Don't you think ?" Her sweet voice sent a shiver down her spine. Wrapping her hand around the sheriff's neck she pulled her up in the air , enjoying as she saw her struggle . No one noticed the voice from the cellphone . Soon the dead body of Liz Forbes was on the ground . The grief that she did not even get to say goodbye to her daughter .Her daughter - Caroline - !

Katherine smirked looking at the dead body before running out and dragging another one inside . Her smile grew as she put the two bodies together , for the girls to find . The pleasure she would get out of their pain . she looked one last time at the dead human and witch .Abby Bennett Wilson .So sad she died , Katherine looked around before walking out of the building . a small smile on her face

Tears streaming down Caroline's face as she heard a loud thud . Her heart was pounding in her chest . She can't be dead . She was alive . She has to be. Her body felt weight less and she collapsed on the ground crying on the shoulder of her friends. Not a moment was lost before the Salvatore's were called . Stefan and Damon hurried over to Caroline's house , Damon more so to see if his Elena was alright .

" We need to find her ! Bonnie do something . please ! " Caroline could feel her heart breaking . Bonnie ran to Liz's room and took the first thing that belonged to her , Running back to the living room she put her hand on the hairbrush and took Caroline's hand in hers. She could see a building , which looked on the outskirts of mystic falls .

" It's a building outside mystic falls . I think in the east . " she whispered to her friend who looked at her in expecting way . Caroline did not even waste a second and ran out of the house , Towards her mother . praying to God it was not true. That it was a dream . A nightmare. She reached an abandoned building and entered it without even checking if anyone was there . Her breath stopped in her chest as she saw the dead bodies . Her mom was dead . They took her away for her . She was alone again . A sob broke through her mouth and she rushed to her mother , Shaking her fragile body . Hoping she would wake up .

Her heart was broken , beyond repair. She did not even notice the footsteps rushing towards her and loud gasp . Bonnie's cry got her attention as she saw her rushing toward the other body . Of her mother .Tears streaming down both of their faces. She took them away . Their last family . Elena's heart broke looking at her best friends cry . She rushed towards them and hugged them tightly . Crying with them as both of them sobbed their hearts out . why was fate so cruel to them . What had they done to deserve this ? They stayed in this position for how long , they did not know .

It took Two hours for both the girls to stop crying . With the help of the brothers they carried the dead bodies back at Caroline's place . Both the girls , exhausted curled up together and fell asleep . Elena sighed as she saw them like this . A tear sliding down her face as she thought of the pain they had to go through . she wiped her eyes and wrote a small note , telling them she would be back soon.Damon offered to take her back as she wanted to check on Jeremy . The ride was silent but she could feel Damon's eyes on her the entire time . She hopped of the car and ran inside , fearing that something might have happened to Jeremy . she opened the door and shouted " Jeremy ! Jer ! where are you ?!" her voice cracking as fear settled in her mind. She turned around as soon as she heard someone rushing in her direction .

" Thank god ! " she whispered as she hugged her brother tightly , afraid if she let go he will disappear. " I am here 'lena . Don't cry ." Jeremy cooed as her tried to calm his sister . He noticed as Damon stood near the door leaning , looking at his sister with intense gaze .

" She killed them . I was so scared She would hurt you to . " she whispered as her eulyes ranked over his face , looking for any signs of injury .

It took a while for Elena to tell Jeremy the whole story and her brother was as shocked as she had been . Growing up together all of them have been close . They were all like siblings . Elena walked in the kitchen to get some water as Jeremy talked to Stefan on the phone . Damon slipped behind her quietly and said. " You know i am here for you Elena . I always will be . " Elena said nothing as she was already exhausted enough . she turned around and ran her hands through her hair , the moment caught Damon's eye as he saw a familiar tattoo on her wrist. With raging force he grabbed her hand causing her to tell in pain .

" Damon let go ! " Her cry of pain brought Jeremy in the kitchen , phone still in hand .

" You are hurting her Damon. let go of her hand ! " he said before standing next to Elena trying to pull her towards him . Damon's grip on her hand increased and Elena saw pure anger on his face .

" Why would you perform that spell ! You can't be with anyone else Elena ! " he shouted at her ignoring her cry of pain once again.

" I can do what ever i want ! " she answered back , trying to get her arm free . Jeremy pushed Damon and moved in between them , Protecting his sister . The very next moment a loud snap was heard and Jeremy's body fell on the ground , motion less. Elena cried out , falling on her knees .

" Jeremy ! No no no no ! jer! please . wake up ! "

she looked up and saw Damon looking at her , his face was stone . she knew what it ment . He has turned his emotions off .she got up on her feet and slapped him . Tears streaming down her face . He killed her brother . Her last family . Damon looked at her mercilessly and the next thing she knows is everything went dark .

Damon Salvatore killed her .
