A/N: So here is first chapter of Magic Detox, a couple people asked me to write a sequel to Kids, Toy Clowns and Vampires. So i did. I am also thinking about doing a Sleepover at the original mansion sequel as well. So if you are a fan of that story as well keep a look out for that, I am in the process of thinking about what would happen in it. So any ideas don't be afraid to share, I will also gladdly accept idea's for any of my stories as well.
Step one: Seclusion
Damon walked around the living room of the boarding house making sure that he had everything on his list that he and Bonnie would need on the magic detox camping trip. Bonnie was currently at her house with the girls, packing her bag. They went with her to make sure she didn't pack anything that had to do with magic. The rest of the guys were helping him get things such as food and stuff around so that they shouldn't have to leave for about three to five days.
"Ok, we packed you a small cooler of blood bags, if you have to you will do fine with one or two animals. Snack foods for bonnie when she gets the munchies. Basic camping breakfast foods, and some bread and some fruits and vegetables." Stefan said as he walked into the room with a cooler followed by Klaus who had the small one.
"Thanks brother, Klaus. Let's pack this up and then all's I have to do is wait for the girls to get back and we can be on our way." Damon said grabbing bags and leading the way to the SUV Elena was letting Bonnie and him borrow.
Twenty minutes later the SUV was packed and the girls were pulling into the driveway with Bonnies two small bags. Once those were added to the backseat of the vehicle, they said good bye and told them they should be back in about a week. The drive there made Damon kind of on edge, mainly due to the darkness of Bonnie's aura confined into the car. You could also add on Damon's aura making the car full of black and dark energy.
Neither talking on the way to their destination, only Bonnie not knowing the actual destination kept looking out the windows for any sign of where it was that they were going. After about an hours drive she gave up looking out the window and started playing some of the games she had downloaded to Damon's phone. Damon would glance at Bonnie ever so often, but never speak. He knew that Bonnie thought she didn't need this to cleanse her magic, but went along with it anyway.
Having been driving for an hour and a half, Damon saw a restroom sign and decided to break the silence, "Do you need to go to the bathroom? If so we can stop."
"No I'm fine, we can keep going unless you want to stop." Bonnie said not taking her eyes off of Damon's phone. So Damon kept driving for another thirty minutes before he pulled off the main road onto a dirt road, that about three miles back was a drive way. At the end of the driveway about a mile from the road, sat a small cabin.
"Who owns this?" Bonnie asked as they got out of the car and looked at the cabin.
"Zach's brother owns it, last time he was here was before he moved away fifteen years ago. He said I could use it, he for some reason always liked me more than Stefan." Damon said grabbing Bonnie's bag and his bag before walking to the door.
"So Zach preferred Stefan and his brother preferred you, makes sense I guess." Bonnie said as she followed him into the cabin looking around it and finding a small kitchen and living room; a small hallway and four doors down the hall. When Damon went back out to get the rest of the stuff she walked down the hall opening the doors as she went; first door on right was bathroom; on left was a bedroom; second on right was an office type room; second on the left was farther back almost to the back wall, it lead to a basement.
"You can go down if you want, the light switch is on the right hand side of the door." Damon said from the other end of the hallway looking at her.
Quietly flipping the light switch Bonnie slowly walked down the stairs, the basement floor was a deep lush red wood. The basement itself was as big as the entire upstairs had been. All around the room small exotic plants grew in pots and planters hanging from the ceiling. Candles scattered around the room sitting on tables and stools, some even on the floor. Stacks of books sat by a desk and also covered most of it. Magic charms hung from the ceiling and on the walls. Stepping closer you could see that the books that were stacked were actually spell books from all around the world.
"Damon, where did all of this come from?" Bonnie said taking a book and flipping through it.
"Some people don't enjoy their heritage as much as some. I keep it here in case they ever want it back, I've made a couple of witch friends over the span of my undead life. The family line ended with them and they wanted their craft to live on." Damon said walking down the stairs with a shrug.
"So for magic detox, you brought me to a place filled with magical items?" Bonnie asked looking up at him while giving him a look.
"Yes I did, starting tomorrow you shall talk to some dead witches. They went through some stuff with magic and can help you, who better to help you than your ancestors?" Damon said smirking at her as some of the amulets started to sway.
