Revenge Plan
Ch. 2
Damon woke up rubbing the temples on his head that ached with annoying pain. All of the blurriness of his surroundings slowly became visible as he remembered everything that happened. He was here because Enzo snapped his neck so he could run off with Bonnie without Damon's interference. He could not believe Bonnie went along with it. Man, even without her powers the little witch still gave him massive headaches. He could not comprehend why out of all of the things Enzo could use to get back at him for the whole leaving him in the fire thing it was to kiss Bonnie. Come on it was Bonnie Bennett, at most she was a reluctant ally, okay and sometimes friend he supposed but it wasn't like she was his girlfriend or anything remotely like that. He rubbed his forehead. This could not be happening. He did not bring the little witch back from the dead for this. Damon didn't think the first time they actually talked since he brought her back would him practically lecturing her on why she should not run off with his friend who wanted him dead. Bonnie was the last person he would have guessed who would make out with a strange vampire who she just met. Bonnie was the sensible one of the group. She certainly was the smartest or at least she used to be. He supposed dying and coming back to life changed a person. Though he never thought that she would change into someone who wasn't the sensible girl he knew. Her being the voice of reason and incessant judginess has been some what of a constant for him. Although he constantly complained of her judgey ways he came to rely on it. The last thing he'd expect her to do was something this reckless and stupid. The only stupid things she ever did was sacrifice herself for her loved ones. Now this was just not Bonnie Bennett type of behavior. She wasn't acting like herself and when Bonnie Bennett wasn't acting like herself everyone was in trouble.
Bonnie drove with the wind blowing her short hair around. It was one of those times when she very much appreciated her new hair do. It exilarted her making her feel alive. She had vowed now that she had a new lease on life that she would do as many things as possible that made her feel alive. That is why she changed her wardrobe choices and as long it wasn't freezing cold she would wear the least amount of clothing as possible. She liked the feel of the wind againt her skin.
And now she was doing even more things that made her feel alive, like making out with strange vampires and borrowing a vampire's car. Okay she did think it was kind of lame way to enact revenge on someone by stealing their car, but Enzo was set on it, and stealing Damon's car was better then Enzo killing Damon. She knew that was a big factor of why she was doing this. She needed to distract Enzo enough to at least stall him from killing Damon. That sounded insane and it was ridiculous that she was running around with a dangerous emotionally unstable vampire to save another psychotic vampire. Damon had grown to be her friend strangely enough and he had brought her back to life. She could not just sit back and do nothing while Enzo tried to kill him.
Enzo had wanted to drive but he had not driven in over sixty years and cars had changed a bit since then, granted this car was vintage car from the seventies, she still felt better and a little bit safer if she drove.
Enzo lied his head back enjoying the ride while he laid a hand on her bare was fairly distracting. She remembered how his hand was on her leg before and how his lips against her sent her a thrill through her body. Even though the main point was to keep Damon away from the guy who wanted him dead, it didn't mean she didn't have to enjoy the ride. She really was tired of living life on the safe side when it came to the opposite sex and now she would actually enjoy living a bit on the edge. She started to swerve the car a bit as she hit the gas and began to speed.
Damon tried to get a hold on Bonnie's natural earthy sent. He followed the sent to his empty drive way, where he saw burnt tire tracks. They had stolen his car. They had stolen his car! What was with people and taking his car?
"Seriously!" He said angrily.
He kicked the air in frustration. He still could track them it just would be a little harder. He remembered what Enzo said about when he got out of the prison the first thing he would do was to go for a nice drive with a pretty girl.
"Uh!"
Back then he would never in a million years expect that girl woul be a Bennett. He swore to always protect the Bennetts. He shook his head at the irony of the whole situation.
Then he heard foot steps running towards him. He did not want to deal with them right he saw Elena, Jeremy, and Caroline.
Then Caroline said, "Where's Bonnie?"
"Do I look like her keeper?"
Jeremy said, "Caroline saw her rushing out here."
Damon glared at the little Gilbert this was all of his fault. If he just kept his hands and lips to himself and not cheat on Bonnie again this wouldn't have happened.
"Yes, well she's not out here now, obviously." Damon said annoyed.
"Damon, can you not be difficult for one second. We need Bonnie. The veil is down."
Elena said.
He looked at the three of them. They were supposed to be her friends and all they wanted was to use her again. Not to mention Jeremy had the gall to kiss Anna and then still try to get Bonnie to put down the veil. He didn't have the time to figure out where the little Gilbert's head was at.
"Bonnie isn't the all powerful witch anymore. She gave that up when she decided to save your little cheating butt."Damon pointed out.
"Damon!" Elena shidded.
"What? He's the one who cheated on your best friend."
"That was a long time ago and besides that has nothing to do with this now. Now the veil is down. I saw Aunt Jenna, it was great seeing her but something is clearly wrong and yeah Bonnie isn't a witch anymore but she is the Anchor. So the other side is her responsibility now. So we need her. If you know where she is, tell us." Elena demanded.
Damon shrugged. He supposed he should let them in on what had happened with Bonnie. If anyone could talk sense into Bonnie it should be her best friends.
Then Jeremy said, "Come on Damon if you know something..."
The boy had some nerve. Damon glared at him with peircing eyes and said, "You're right Jer. I do know something. I know you kissed Anna and I'm not talking a long time ago I'm talking recently. It is why Bonnie came rushing out the door."
Caroline and Elena gave Jeremy the look of death.
"Seriously? What is wrong with you, Jeremy? You had Bonnie back and you just..." Caroline began to say angrily.
Then Jeremy looked at Damon and asked carefully, "You know where she is?"
"Like hell I would tell you. She doesn't want to see you right now. She's tired of stuff like that happening to her and always being the one who always has to do the right thing and she always has to fix other people's messes. She just wants to live a little. So why don't you all for once be good friends and let her live and just this once try to figure it out on your own."
Elena sighed deeply, "You're right."
"I am?"
"He is?" Caroline asked confused.
"Yeah, Bonnie is upset. We should give her space. We could see if we can find another way and not use Bonnie, again. Damon, if you do know where she is maybe you should go after her and make sure she's okay. She's really vulnerable right now. I don't want anyone to take advantage of her." Elena said.
"I don't know where she is." Damon said.
"You'll find her. You always do." Elena said with a certianty that kind of freaked him out and frustrasted him to no end. This was part of the reason he broke up with her, because of her unrelenting faith in him. She beleived in him, even when she shouldn't. He also didn't like her mentioning that he could always find Bonnie. He knew she was referring to him staying behind at the island and finding Bonnie, but that wasn't even him. He didn't find her, she found him.
He shrugged his shoulders. What was he going to do though, just ignore the situation? Was he really going to let Bonnie have her fun with Enzo? He did mean it when he told them to let her live a little. He realized why she was doing this. She was sufforcating in always doing the right thing, she was finally blowing up. But this wasn't just blowing off some steam and having fun, this was dangerous. Enzo was dangerouse and he was taking advantage of her vulnerable state to get back at him. He could not just leave that alone. He had to find them.
So then he said, "Fine, I'll find her and make sure she's okay. You three just handle this on your own. Don't bring her into this."
They seemed to accept this, except Jeremy and he said, "I'll come with you. I need to talk to her."
"Nope. Absolutely not. I doubt she wants to talk to you right now." Damon said.
Jeremy was about to object when Elena said, "She just needs time Jer...you can talk out your issues later."
"But..."
Then Caroline said, "Nope, Jeremy you cheated you don't get a say in this. You're just lucky Elena's your sister otherwise you'd be dead right now, or at least a very sad beat up little ghost whisperer. Now come on, the veil isn't going to close itself."
Then Caroline began to push Jeremy towards the boarding house.
Damon smiled a bit amused at Blondie and glad that she and Elena agreed to keep Jeremy away from Bonnie. This wasn't going to work too well with him tagging along.
He went back to looking at the car and smelled the air a bit. He was going to find them.

They stopped by a convient store so she could pick up some imperitives. She was going through the candy isle and picked up a chocolate candy bar. She really missed this when she was dead.
Then Enzo said, "Oh how I missed this."
"Really?"
"Oh, yeah, Choclate was one of the best things I was able to get when I was on leave from the war."
"The war?"
"Yeah, the second great war."
"World War two. You haven't had chocolate since world war two?" Bonnie asked apalled.
"Yes, well I haven't had a lot of things since then." Enzo said his eyes looking at her lustfully.
She caught them, staring back with gulp excaping her. Then suddely he grabbed her by the waist and pulled her in a scorching kiss. She kissed him intently. The taste of his lips against hers helped her forget about everything she's been through. It helped her forget about everything she missed out on when she died and it helped her forget about her long lasting pain. The edge of his thumb played with her ear. Enzo leaned her against the isle bags of chips began to fall to the ground.
Then the clerk said, "Excuse me. Do you mind?"
Bonnie almost wanted to ignore the guy and to continue to kiss Enzo but the logical part of her brain told her it was not a good ideaa to ignore the clerk.
Bonnie pulled away from Enzo and turned to the clerk and said, "Sorry."
Bonnie didn't know what got into her. She wasn't one to be a huge fan of public displays of affection but she supposed she had thrown caution to the wind and was starting to do things that she normally wouldn't. PDA was the least one to worry about.
Enzo's face sunk in annoyance at the interuption. A scowl formed on his lips and it emerged into a wicked grin. Worry fluttered in her stomach at that look, one she knew very well. It was very similar to the way Damon's face changed when he was thinking about doing something lethal.
"So very sorry about that." He said smoothly as he picked up a bag of chips from the ground.
Bonnie did not like the way he swaggered over to the clerks counter, like a cat getting ready to play with his food. Uh. It was one of those moments when she wished she still had her magic. More and more she regretted those choices she made that led her to lose her powers.
Then Bonnie quickly locked her hands with his and said, "Come on sweetie it's time to go."
His smirk only curved more. His eyes told her he had some intersting plans for the clerk.
The clerk said rudely, "Are you going to pay for that?"
Bonnie looked at the few candy bars in her hands she nearly forgot.
"Oh, yeah, of course."
She put the candy bars on the counter and shoved her hand in her pocket and realized they were empty.
"Oh, I can't beleive I forgot my wallet."
"It's okay sweetheart. I got it."
Bonnie was surprised since from what he said he hadn't been part of civilzation for the past seventy five years. Then he pulled on the guy's collar and bared his fangs. In retrospect she should have saw this coming. Then she gently put her hands on his biscep and said, "No Enzo, that's not what we're doing here."
"I was just going to get a little snack, same as you. I thought this was about having fun."
"This isn't my kind of fun." Bonnie said.
He tilted his head and looked at his terrified victim.
The victim squirmed, "Go ahead, take whatever you want!"
Bonnie grabbed Enzo's hand firmly. "We don't want to leave any scenes. My vampire friends live in this town. They're usually discreet."
Amused Enzo said, "Got it, sweetheart."
Enzo focused his eyes on the clerk and said, "You saw a lovely couple and were so anoumoured by them that you let them have a few candy bars, food, and champaign."
The man blinked and said, "Don't forget the champaign I offered."
"Why thank you." He said smoothly with a big toothy grin. Then he went to get the best bottle that the convient store had to offer.
Bonnie sighed. Compulsion was better then Enzo attacking the guy but she did have a small ache of guilt about it. Compulsion was something her and her friends were used to. They used it so that the three of them could room together and so that Bonnie could attend college after school had already started. Sometimes she had that guilt nawing at her at her deminishing moral compass. She brushed it off, this was about fun. She just had to make sure her type of fun an Enzo's type of meshed well and no one would get hurt in the process.
