Sam an Dean
While Sam and Dean were waiting for Bobby and the sheriff, they had their backs turned away from the house. Dean had gone back to checking out the car, when the front door opened, but what the brothers didn't notice, was that someone had stepped outside and was standing in the doorway to the boarding house. Suddenly when they were least expecting it, Sam and Dean heard a voice and they spun around to see where and who this unexpected voice had come from. "Excuse me, can we help you with something?" the voice asked a little pissed.
When Sam and Dean had turned around they came almost face to face with two guys, not sure which one of them had spoken, the Winchesters just addressed them both. One of them had ebony black hair and crystal blue eyes, he was slightly more tanned than the other one, standing quietly stiffly and guarded, while the other hand dirty blond hair and emerald green eyes, he was however very pale, but he seemed more relaxed.
Dean took point on this, noticing how Sam had become slightly uncomfortable, with their increasingly awkward situation. "We're waiting for a friend and the sheriff", he explained. "They seem to think that someone that lives here can help us with something," he answered honestly aiming at the older looking guy, with the dark hair, taking a guess he was maybe the one in charge.
"Well that's all very vague and frankly, not very titillating" Damon said wiggling his fingers, completely uninterested.
But before Dean or Damon could utter another word the sheriff's squad car pulled up, with someone riding shot gun, he realized that he didn't recognize the scent of the person, but it was definitely an older male he noted, that this must be Bobby he thought.
Dean and Sam heard the crunching of gravel and turned around to face the the noise, thankfully it was the sheriff and Bobby in her cop car. Sam and Dean breathed a sigh of relief, at the sight of the car as Bobby stepped out. Then he came to stand beside them, with the sheriff standing next to the other two guys opposite them.
Damon and Stefan Salvatore, meet Sam and Dean Winchester she introduced to both sets of brothers. The Salvatore's not really sure which one was Sam and which was Dean, one was easily over 6 ft tall, with dark brown hair and brown eyes. The other slightly shorter, but not by much, he had dark blond hair and green eyes with just a hint of hazel.
The taller one of the two stepped towards the Salvatore brothers, "Sam Winchester", he introduced shaking the hand of the blond one first, he looked a little less threatening than the darker haired one.
"Stefan Salvatore" he confirmed with a smile and Sam returned it, then taking the hand of the one with darker hair "Damon Salvatore" he said slightly stronger grip and a slightly sterner look on his features, then finally the "sheriff Liz Forbes" she introduced.
Shaking first Sam's hand, then Dean's with a kind smile she seemed slightly apprehensive though that was to be expected, what with the amount of testosterone flowing around the place.
Dean was slightly more wary, but he shook the hand of Damon first, neither exchanging a smile just a curt nod and their names and then, Stefan who did smile at Dean, but Dean didn't return just gave nod in reply, then stated his name "Dean Winchester", he confirmed, "this is bobby singer" he finished clapping the older man on the back, bobby just nodded towards the Salvatore's.
"Well" Stefan announced, "lets not all stand out here all, day please come in, then we can talk inside. Please come in." Damon just walked inside without acknowledging what his brother had said in the slightest, followed quickly by Liz and then Stefan lastly bobby and the Winchesters.
When they walked through the front door Sam Dean and Bobby admired the old home, it was even bigger than it seemed on the inside, it had high ceilings and it was an amazing home. "Does anyone else live here" Sam asked without thinking, "Um sorry, it's just this seems a lot of room, you know for just the two of you, or is it still a boarding house it's really incredible" he stated.
Stefan answered before Damon could say anything remotely to make these people uncomfortable, if he knew his brother he would make everything uncomfortable on purpose, just to put them off, not that they seemed the kind of people to be intimidated by his brothers crap.
"yes it's just us, we don't have any other family, it's just Damon and I, our uncle Zack died a few years ago and this hasn't been a boarding house in many years" he said as they sat down in the parlor.
Sam nodded to the brothers looking at Stefan, "Sorry, about your uncle i mean."
Damon just laughs, "Okay, well before you two get all buddy buddy, i'm going to call the guys, because this involves them too" he says seriously. Liz nods at Damon agreeing with him, as he pulls out his phone.
"Yeah good idea Damon, probably for the best" she says.
"Ric buddy" he greets, "Grab the scooby gang and get over here now, okay i need you, yes really, did i stutter, bring everyone we have a problem" he says before hanging up. "They'll be here in 5, they were just leaving the grill" he states.
After an awkward ten minutes silence, only broken by Damon saying they couldn't start, not until Ric arrived with everyone, or to get up and get a bourbon, then taking a seat again, much to Dean's annoyance, he hadn't been without food this long in forever, not that he could remember anyway.
By the time the ring of the door bell sounded, with Ric's voice booming through the open doors it was starting to get beyond awkward, "Damon you in there, everything okay, what's going on"
The voice asked "Thank the cheerleaders" Damon sighed, Getting to his feet and walking towards the door. "Ric, iv'e literally never been happier to see you, come in, we're in the parlor, take a seat everyone, the shows about to begin" he said in a fashion that was so typically Damon Salvatore, so full of sarcasm and more meaning than most people could ever comprehend."
They all sat down, like Damon had asked, as he leaned against the fire place after, pouring some bourbon for himself and Ric. "Where's Katherine" Damon asked Stefan.
"Oh, i guess i must of forgotten to tell you Damon, she's gone away for a week or so, apparently the shops in Mystic Falls aren't good enough, not for the great Katerina Petrova, so she's gone to New York" Stefan answered.
"Okay then, well i guess we're all here then"Damon said looking at the group before him, who had just arrived. "I guess it's time for introductions then" he sighed.
"So here we have my best buddy Alaric Saltzman", "Mystic Falls High school history teacher, by day and vampire hunter by night, pointing to the man who he had called earlier with a smirk, he had medium brown hair blue eyes and light stubble he seemed nice enough, but you can call him Ric".
"Dick" Alaric said to Damon with a smirk, that he was unable to hide.
"Oh come on, don't be like that Ric, you know you love me really, you couldn't live without my charm" they smirked at each other, Damon winked at him, before Ric said, "oh yeah, as much as i love the plague",he laughed and the look on Damon's face.
"Okay well, that was very uncalled for" he joked. holding a hand over his heart "You wound me, i mean really" he said.
Mostly people just laughed at this typical Ric/Damon banter, before Dean sighed and the tension returned.
"Okay Damon look, i get why he is here," Dean said pointing to Ric, "But do we really need the younger ones here, this isn't a joke you know." Dean said trying to keep his tone calm.
"I'm well aware of that, thank you very much captain obvious" Damon said sarcastically, if looks could kill Dean would be 6 feet under now. "But if you would let me finish, your tiny brain might understand the reason" he said with a growl, everyone who knew Damon could sense his control slipping, they all took a step so they were a little closer to him.
"Dean that's enough" Bobby said sternly, looking his way. "Look, just let the man finish first okay" Bobby sensed he better calm this situation down before it got out of hand, especially with the look Dean was receiving from Damon at this moment in time.
"Thank you Bobby" Damon said with a half smile, "This is Sam and Dean Winchester" Damon said pointing to them, some what a little begrudgingly. Then looking back to Ric, "They think they can help us with our vampire problems." Caroline felt herself shift in her seat at Damon's words.
"Bobby" Dean says "If this is a waste of time, like I'm thinking that it is. then pie is on you".
"Fine ya idijit, now shut up about damn pie, for one second, would you please dammit." he said exasperated with the elder Winchester.
"Anyway where was i, before i was so, rudely interrupted" Damon said sending a scowl in Dean's direction, "Next to Ric, that is Jeremy Gilbert" Jeremy had dark brown short hair and brown eyes.
I'm sure that Liz told you about Elena Gilbert Bobby, one of a few dopplegangers, well he's her brother, sort of, anyway complicated, not important and of course Kat who is not here, is another doppleganger, Elena's her double."
"Next to Jeremy is Annabelle Johnson, but you can call her Anna, she's Jeremy's girlfriend" he said in a mock voice, she had dark brown eyes light brown curly hair.
"This is Katherine Stefan interrupts, pulling out his mobile and showing the picture to the three men, this is Elena, Jeremy says pulling out his phone and showing the three men a picture of him and his sister, Katherine and Elena both had dark brown eyes, almost black. Their hair was also dark brown, but where Katherine had her hair in tight curls, Elena had completely straight hair, he missed her so much, when she left it nearly killed him, but she couldn't handle anymore vampire stuff anymore she'd had it.
Elena had asked him to go with her, but he couldn't leave, even if she was his sister, he was needed here. Jeremy was just thankful he still had Anna and he would be eternally grateful to Damon and Stefan for that, they had managed to save her, right before his uncle John could steak her, even if John hadn't died saving Elena, he was already dead to Jeremy.
The moment that he had attempted to end Anna's well, un-dead life even though he knew how much he had cared about her. He didn't stop to think, his stupid beliefs getting in the way of seeing anything in grey, rather than always black and white. Just like every other Gilbert before them, but Jeremy vowed that he would be different from the rest of his family and luckily, of course he still had Jenna and Ric and his friends.
Tyler however had left town shortly after his uncle mason was killed by Damon, but his uncle was a big threat, so Damon had claimed but Jeremy couldn't bring himself to really care, his girlfriend was alive well, as much as possible and that was partly to do with Damon.
"On the couch next to you, that is the lovely, Miss Bonnie and Shelia Bennett our resident witches" both women had a beautiful caramel complexion and brown eyes, both also had curly brown hair, Sheila's hair being closer to black and slightly shorter than her granddaughters, Damon knew Sheila had no problem about him sharing this information, she had told him unless she had said otherwise, or given him a shake of her head it was fine.
If the people she trusted were there to help it was okay, but he had to protect Bonnie, if anything went wrong as if that was up for question, he and Bonnie had become close since Elena's departure from Mystic Falls. But it had turned out that she had been wrong, well if she had not sensed a threat, but there was one to get Bonnie out, but she nodded to him. Almost as soon as she walked in the boarding house, with a simple smile to him.
"Then lastly we have Caroline Forbes, our lovely sheriff's daughter" he finished indicating to the sheriff and her daughter standing together, he and Caroline had began to put there issues aside recently and were working on building a friendship for the sake of the group, her mother and of course St. Stefan, had insisted acting all high and mighty as usual, she gave him a small smile Damon could sense how nervous she was.
Caroline looked up and gave a shy smile to Dean, he smiled back and gave her a quick wink. Thinking that, well hey maybe this day wouldn't be so bad after all she was beautiful and from the way she was looking at him she liked the look of him too.
"Thank you Mr Salvatore, but i can introduce myself", Shelia said, before standing up and walking towards Bobby.
Damon just nodded and held up his hands, "sorry mam" he said jokingly giving Bonnie a quick glance, to see her reaction, he was pleasantly surprised to find her smiling at him, he smiled back before turning his attention back to the scene before him.
"That's quite enough of your cheek thank you young man, i can take you down, if i need to" she said before extending her hand to Bobby, to which Dean found himself snickering, it was good to see someone knock that smart ass down a peg or two, he just didn't think it would be this sassy older woman, but he shut the hell up and just continued to watch her, like he'd never said anything.
"Shelia Bennett" she introduced. "As Damon mentioned, myself and my granddaughter are witches, but i can promise we mean no harm to any of you"she said honestly."We're good witches" she explained. "Not like the ones, that I'm more than sure that you have encountered, just going by the looks on your faces, at my mentioning of what we are, but you can trust us." "Here take my hand, i can show you i am to be trusted" she said to Bobby.
Waiting for Bobby's approval he nods, so she takes his hand in hers concentrating, then all of a sudden, she gasps and closes her eyes rather quickly, so quickly that neither of them can hear the shouting from Sam and Dean to check if Bobby is okay.
Bobby suddenly has images flashing threw his mind of Sheila helping Bonnie study with what he assumed were her grimoire's, then without warning the scene suddenly shifted, to what seemed to be a dark forest. He could sense the darkness and evil surrounding this place. Bobby has a feeling this may be the site where the sacrifice that Liz mentioned was performed, by the hybrid Klaus, he notices a bleeding Damon and Stefan, with Katherine or Elena on the ground, from what he had been told he thought it was probably Elena, since Liz said she was the one used in the sacrifice.
Then Bobby noticed a slightly bleeding Sheila and Bonnie, slowly staggering towards the trio on the ground.
Bonnie was kneeling down in front of Damon, shaking his shoulder gently, as he started to stir, she pushed some of his dark hair out of his eyes tenderly, her other hand stroking his cheek, saying something to him, he struggled to his feet.
Bobby turned his gaze back to the older woman, who was saying something to them all, not that he could hear what they were saying, then all of a sudden he noticed Bonnie standing alone, where the three bodies once were, before she was going to stand by her grandmother.
Turning to look ahead of them, Bobby followed her gaze, there were two men rolling around on the floor grappling at inhuman speed. Fangs bared, black veins covering their faces, Bobby had never seen these type of vampire before, must be a newer breed maybe he thought. Klaus he assumed, was one of them, then there was another one, he seemed to be fighting with another vampire, he seemed to know all of a sudden he hears the two witches screaming NO! but then it goes silent again as they disappeared.
Then the images around him blur again, and then fade to black, before a new image takes it's place. One of sheila with, no it can't be can it... he is shocked at what he see's but it is it's him. Rupert? he says to himself.
Rupert Giles was a friend of Bobby's, who had been on the watchers council for the vampire slayers. He had met Rupert Giles when he was on a hunt in England, Giles had helped him to catch a werewolf and take it down. Pulled from his memory's and those of sheila's, coming completely out of it he opens his eyes.
To find Sam and Dean looking at him questioningly and concerned, But he ignores them, for the time being turning is attention to sheila. "How do you know Rupert" he asked her curious now.
"Ahh" she says looking at him with a smile. "I met Mr Giles when we were both on a herbal medicines course, he was quite the gentleman and extremely smart beyond his years, he's a great friend, even to this day in fact" she explained, Bobby nodded with a smile.
"That sounds like Rupert to me, he was quite the ladies man, if he trusted you as much as it seems he did, then i guess there is no doubt in my mind what so ever, that we would be stupid not to do the same, So it's a pleasure to meet you Miss Bennett" he said.
"Oh sheila, please Bobby" she said.
"Okay, does someone want to tell us what the hell is going on?" Dean suddenly loosing his patients shouts louder than had been his intention. "I'll thank you to mind your tongue Mr Winchester, show some respect" she exclaims a little aggravated.
"Yeah well you no, i really hate to agree with pie boy here, but what is going on? Damon asks feeling himself getting slightly impatient as well.
"Unbelievable" sheila sighs, Bobby and Liz are about to step forward, when sheila clips both of the elder brothers round the ear, Earning laughter from everyone in the room, except the Dean and Damon who just look pissed. "Now if you two are going to behave like children, we can treat you like over grown children, i was about to explain, that was before you two got your panties in a twist, sit down, be quiet and listen" Shelia exclaims watching the blush in Dean's cheeks rise and Damon just stood there with his arms crossed.
"Are you sure you two are the eldest brothers, your younger siblings must of got the brains. Now if you please i will explain" they both grunted and crossed their arms over their chests, causing Sam and Stefan to chuckle at their brothers reactions.
"I like this woman" Sam says, bobby nods in agreement, "Me to" he says looking from Sam to Sheila.
"I can see why Giles liked you" he chuckled.
Sheila smiled before continuing, "Okay so as i was about to say before the toys were thrown from their strollers, i have an idea, one that will hopefully get us to all trust each other, at least a little, just like bobby and i now do" she said smiling at him. "We will all need to share a vision, Bonnie i will need your help sweetheart" Sheila said taking her granddaughters hand "okay grams" Bonnie said, then nodded to her grandmother.
