A/N: Hullo! In advance, this chapter is the super short start to the story. The chapters will get lengthier, I promise!The idea popped into my head for this some nights ago and I couldn't not write it, but a few quick things first-
Just as a heads up, the inhabitants of Mystical Falls do have history with the Winchester boys, (that will be explained in chapters to come)
It will have some light crossover pairings and mentions of cannon pairings (but no long drawn out angsty love triangle) Main ones being Dean&Elena, Sam&Caroline.
I've read this over myself a dozen times, fixing errors and such, but if there's still one hidden I'm super sorry.
I hope you enjoy it! Feedback is amazing!
"For the record, I don't agree with what they're doing." Caroline said bending down to the level of the shell of what was her best friend. She didn't know much about switching back on emotions, but she did know that this was not the way to get to Elena; the girl had been tortured by hordes of vampires, werewolves, and pissed off witches for years now. Nothing Stefan or Damon could dish out would break her. "I mean, I agree that you need to turn your humanity back on, but I don't think that making you suffer is the way to do it. That's not who you are."
Elena twirled the now empty bottle of blood Caroline had brought her on the floor. Elena knew she couldn't stand fidgeting and must have realized the noise of the glass scraping across the stone floor was amplified to their vampire hearing just adding to the blonde's frustration.
"What makes you such an expert on who I am?" Elena asked, watching her fingers.
"Because we've been friends forever," Caroline answered instantly, and it was true. She barely had a memory growing up that didn't involve her, Bonnie, or Matt. She knew that if it was her in this situation, they'd be in here trying to help her, too.
Elena's dark brown eyes flickered up to meet her blue ones, "I tried to kill you, Caroline." She reminded the blonde, "I'm not exactly BFF-material anymore. You should move on."
The younger vampire continued to spin the bottle over and over again, the noise filling up the room and suffocation her thoughts. Caroline's nerves got the best of her and she slapped her hand on top of Elena's, stopping the movement.
"I am not going to give up on you." Caroline said firmly.
Elena's eyebrow twitched upwards in irritation, a trait carried by her doppelganger, Caroline wondered if she even knew she did it. "This annoying, clingy thing that you're doing, did it ever occur to you maybe that's why both your boyfriends skipped town?" Caroline couldn't believe just how much she sounded like Katherine. Maybe that's why it was so easy for the Salvatore brothers to do this to her. "I mean, I know that Tyler said he was running for his life, but maybe he was running from you. And Klaus? I mean, let's just say it: nobody likes a tease."
Caroline rolled her eyes so hard she thought they might roll out of her head. Throwing insults was not Elena's strong point if she was going for petty shots about her love life.
"Hey, I'm not judging." Elena continued, a small insincere grin on her face, "Might be nice to have a bad boy ruffle those perfect feathers."
Caroline's eyes narrowed as she struggled to keep it together and not run out now, because Elena would know all about bad boys. Her pseudo boyfriend, or whatever the hell Damon was to her, was the one who convinced her to do this in the first place. And sure, Stefan might be the good guy but he wasn't exactly innocent in this whole thing. Matt was the only actual good guy she dated that Caroline could recall, and even before that when they were younger she had the biggest crush on-
"That's it." Caroline's eyes widened as she came to her realization. She didn't know why she hadn't thought of it before.
Elena smirked, sure she had won, "Finally done trying to save me?"
"You made it clear that I can't" She bit out through gritted teeth, but then a small smile appeared on her lips "But I know someone who can." She told her confidently.
Elena scoffed doubtfully, "Oh really?" She cocked her head, "Who?"
Caroline stood up straight and turned towards the door, "I don't think Stefan or Damon are going to be the ones able to reverse this." She paused to look at her friend, contemplating telling her the truth, after a moment's hesitation she continued, "But I know a pair of brothers can."
She felt a surge of triumph when Elena's fell, "You wouldn't dare."
"Oh I wouldn't?" Caroline challenged, "Nothing else seems to be getting through to you, Elena! Do you even know what Damon is planning for you?" She snapped, "Because I do, and I'm not going to let it happen. Not if I can help it."
She moved to leave when Elena flashed over to her, and suddenly they were face to face, "They won't come, Caroline," Her voice void of any emotion, "He's dead. Just like everyone else that mattered to us."
"Maybe." Caroline said quietly, "But the grapevine says different."
"You won't." Elena looked at her, and Caroline saw it in her eyes that she was struggling with the fear that crept in, and had to fight pointing it out, "You won't, because what will they say when perfect little Caroline is a blood-sucking monster, and I'm dead inside- literally. Or are you just going to slap on your old control freak, dumb blonde persona? They'll see right through it."
"I'll take my chances." The older vampire told her, she said she wasn't going to give up and she meant it. Caroline watched veins start to flicker on the other girl's cheeks and her stance change. Caroline sped out of the room just before she could grab her, slamming the door shut. She had gotten a rise out of Elena enough for her to try and attack her. Hopefully, if she could follow through on her threat, it would be enough to switch her emotions back on.
She saw Stefan appear beside her, obviously alarmed by Elena's outburst. They both flinched when Elena slammed particularly hard into the door, causing dirt and dust to trickle down from the old stone walls beside it.
"They'll kill us, Caroline!" Elena yelled, her hands wrapping around the small iron bars, "And you know it!"
Caroline sighed and saw Stefan looking towards her questioningly, "I'm going to make a call. I'll be upstairs." She said without answering him, moving her way to the steps.
Like I said super, sort- but tell me what you think!
