Damon grabbed his glass of bourbon and began to walk out of the boarding house's living room but stopped.
"Very brave of you to come here." He turned his head seeing Katherine lounging on the couch.
"I wanted to say goodbye." she said
"Leaving so soon?" Damon said mockingly,turning towards her all the way.
"I know when I'm not wanted." She shrugged as she stood up from the couch.
"Don't pout. It's not attractive on a woman your age." He said as he sipped from his glass.
"Ouch." She said mockingly as she laid a hand on her chest. Damon took another sip from his drink and began to walk out of the room but, stopped when Katherine was suddenly in front of him. "What, no goodbye kiss?"
Damon frowned. "Why don't I kill you instead? What are you doing here?"
"Nostalgia, curiosity, et cetera." Katherine shrugged.
"I'm better at the enigmatic one-liners, Katherine. What are you up to?" Damon asked.
I rolled my eyes as I watched the interaction between them from the woods. Damon was always going to be in love with Katherine. I patiently waited for Katherine as their goodbye continued, ignoring them the best I can. My ears perked up when Katherine said Stefan's name.
"you should also know before I go is that Emily is in town. After I leave I don't know if she will stay. You should at least talk to her before she does. Stefan did. She confessed as she sped out to meet me by the woods, leaving a upset Damon in the boarding house.
"Have fun?" I mocked as she began to walk away from the house and me. "I never should have came with you. You outed me to my brother! You know they're coming and you outed me, you ruined the plan!" I yelled at her as I grabbed her shoulder for her to only grab my throat and pin me to a tree. I grunted as the force slapped my head to the wood. My hand scratched at her arm.
"My job is to help Klaus get the moonstone to hope that he will make a deal with me and to stay far away from Klaus until I know I am safe from him. Not to confront him, like you. I don't have a death wish. We work together until we both get what we want. You get your part after. Meet me at the hospital when you're done with your pity party." She snarled and let go of my throat. My hand immediately touched my throat. With one last glare as she sped off. I looked back at the boarding school, thinking about seeing my brother, but I know he would only be mad at Katherine and he would take it out at me if I decided to show up on his worst thing to deal with was an upset Damon.I touched the back of my head and hissed at the tenderness.
"What a bitch." I whispered.
I sped off, hoping that Damon didn't know I was close to the house. I stopped at the hospital as Katherine was leaving. Her heels clicking on the pavement as she walked towards me."Here is where you finally come into play. Klaus is going to have his vampire, all you need to do is watch over her and make sure she doesn't get killed before its time. Her room is 201. Leave the rest of the plan to to me." She commanded stepping in front of me.
"Is there anything else?" I said sarcastically.
"Yeah, don't mess up." She retorted.
She rested her hand on my shoulder tightly before she sped off. I made my way towards Caroline's room. I sighed as I sat on the chair beside the bed until the inevitable happens.
It was in the middle of the night when I decided that she would need a blood bag, quickly I made my way to where they stored the blood and sneakily took a B bag and made my way back. As I turned into the room to see the blonde already drinking from a blood bag.
"Ew." She commented as she finished it and threw it in the trash can.
"You might want to try this one instead. This type tastes better." I said as I tossed the packet on the bed beside her. Her eyes grew huge as she whirled to looked from the bag to me. " Easy there, I'm not here to hurt you. My name is Emily Salvatore." I sat on the chair and crossed my legs.
"I'm Caroline. You're Stefan and Damon's sister?" she asked as she hesitantly sat on the bed beside the bag. "I thought they didn't have a sister."
I tucked my brown hair behind my ear. "We're not as close as we were. But, I'm here to help you, not tell my story. I saw you talking to the nurse and swipe that blood bag." I lied as she nodded at me.
"So, why did I just chug a bag of blood?" She asked hesitantly. I sighed knowing she already knew the answer.
"You're a vampire. Someone must have gave you vampire blood and you must have died with it in your system for you to turn."
"I remember. Elena visited me but she said her name was Katherine and she smothered me. Why does she look like Elena? What am I going to do about my life?! I have to go to the carnival still! How am I going to help when I'm like this?!" She asked me starting to freak out.
"Hey easy, I'll make sure you get a daylight ring. So that you can walk in the sun. But, now you need to lay low." I walked over to her phone, ignoring her protests and added my number in. "I have some things to do. If you need me, call me." I sat her phone down again and began to walk out the door but, stop and turn my head to her. "And stay out of the sunlight, unless you want a nice fire."
My visit with Caroline had me thinking about my brothers. We were close when we were younger and before we turned and then Katherine came in our lives and it went downhill from there. I sighed, shaking myself out of that thought. I brushed my dark brown hair away from my face as I stared at my reflection satisfied with finding time to shower and change into my dark jeans with a white v neck and ankle boots. I shrugged on my leather jacket as I walked out the door to make my way to the carnival that Caroline was talking about. Soon, I make my way there and make my way through the crowd to see an arm wrestling circle happen,I decided to see what it was about as the crowd was getting loud. I made my way to the front to see Stefan arm wrestling another man with tan skin. They both put in incredible effort, Stefan scrunches his eyebrows as he puts in all of his strength before the man slams his hand down. My eyebrows rise as I realize that Stefan really lost, even when he put all of his strength in it. I look up and meet ice blue eyes staring at me.
I definitely was not ready to face my twin yet. My eyes widen before I turn and leave. I quickly put distance between us. My phone dings, alerting me to a text from Caroline, telling me to meet her inside the school.
"Caroline?" I ask through the dark hallway. I turn the corner to suddenly see her staring Damon down.
"My memories have been coming back, in pieces." She crossed her arms with a scowl on her face.
"You can't remember. It's impossible, I mean unless you're becoming a..." He began trying to cope with the new information.
"A vampire." I finish, causing him to quickly turn around. His blue eyes wide as he saw me. We turned our attention to Caroline again once she began to talk.
"I have a message from Katherine. She said 'Game on.'" Caroline smiled at him. Suddenly, she rushed towards him, causing him to fall onto me with his back crushing me and sliding us on the floor. "You suck, Damon." She said as she sped off.
"Damon, get off of me. You're fucking heavy." I grunted into his back.
"You know, I don't remember you being so rude." He grunted as he got up. I scoffed at him and stood up to match his icy blue glare with mine. "So, what's really the reason you came back?"
"I told you. I just missed my brothers." I said cooley
"What ever. I got to find someone." He said not believing me.
We made our way outside to see a pretty brunette talking to another girl. As she heard Damon call out her name she turned around. My breath caught in my throat as I took in her features. She looked exactly like Katherine did. Except her brown eyes didn't hold malice like Katherine's did and she had pin straight long brown hair.
"Elena, meet my sister, Emily. Emily, this is Elena. I'll explain later." He said quickly as I gave her a short wave.
"I thought it was just you and Stefan?" Elena asked curiously while looking at him and me in confusion.
"Listen, I'll tell you about it later. We have a bigger problem." Damon said.
"What ever it is I'm not interested." She said putting her hands on her hips.
"Yeah. I need you to come with me right now, Elena." He stated.
I rolled my eyes. The drama was so thick that I could cut it with a knife. "Damon, do what you have to do. I'm gonna start looking for Caroline." I finally said, interrupting their staring contest.
"Fine." He spoke harshly and led Elena away.
I walked around the carnival for awhile, trying to pick up anything that led me to Caroline. If anything should happen to her Katherine would have my head and I was starting to like her since she reminded me of me when I first turned. Suddenly, a familiar metallic scent hit my nose. I raced to where the smell was coming from to see a familiar blonde in the arms of my twin. Slowly, Damon raised the stake and aimed it for Caroline's heart.
"Damon, stop!" I yelled and sped over to knock it out of his hand making the stake hit the ground.
"Emily!" He shouted with annoyance just as Stefan and Elena rushed over. Elena made her way to Caroline to comfort her.
Stefan stared at me in disbelief for a second until I smiled softly at him.
"Get away from me! You killed me!" Caroline cried pushing Elena away from her, drawing mine and Stefan's attention back to the situation. Elena looked confused and then it hit her.
"No,no,no,no Caroline! That wasn't me. You know that! That was Katherine." Elena tried to explain, but Caroline wasn't listening as she looked at Elena with confusion.
"No! Then why did she look like you?! And why, why did she do this to me?" Caroline cried gripping her hair.
"Stefan, we've got to get her inside." Elena said to Stefan.
"She will die, it's only a matter of time." Damon stated.
"Yeah, maybe so, but not today." Stefan said.
"That responsibility doesn't fall on you, Damon. You can't just kill every new vampire that makes a mistake. Besides, she's Elena's friend." I said crossing my arms and glaring at him.I hoped that bringing Elena in the conversation would make him change his mind since I've seen the way he looks at her.
"Oh, yeah I can." Damon ran towards Caroline with the stake back into his hand, but stops when Elena puts herself between them.
"She's my friend." she stated as he hesitated. After a minute, Damon dropped his arm and put his face in front of Elena's.
"Whatever happens, its on you." He growls.
I turn my head to see a pretty dark skinned brunette appear and gasps when she sees the body in the back of the truck.
"Bonnie." I hear Caroline whisper as Stefan lead her to the bathroom.
"I can't believe this is happening." The one called Bonnie said in disbelief.
Suddenly, Damon and I fell to our knees from the sudden burst of pain in our heads. I try to ignore their argument as I breathed through the pain. My blood began to boil. Maybe from the witch or just with anger at her. When the spell was over I had my knees and hands on the ground breathing heavily. I glared at the witch who glared back at me and Damon. I had nothing to do with this why is she attacking me? Having enough, I gathered enough strength and I sped off to the place I was staying at and opened my door to my room to pick my phone out of my pocket to see Katherine's name lit up on the screen.
"So, how's Caroline doing?" She asked . "And don't lie. I saw that Damon almost killed her. I couldn't see the rest because I had something else to tend to"
"Oh, you mean Mason." I bit at her. "Anyways,she's fine now. She's fed and learning. She has Stefan teaching her, he's the best teacher I know." I said nonchalantly taking my jacket off and flinging it on my bed.
"Don't be witty. It doesn't suit you." She retorted. "Just keep an eye on her. I don't need anything happening to her before Klaus gets here." She commanded.
"She's going to be fine. Besides how do you know that he's going to take her?" I asked.
"Because,I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse." She said.
A/N : I promise it will get better once I get the story running. I also picture Victoria Pedretti from The haunting of hill house as Emily Salvatore.
