Note: I'm really excited because of the response this fanfic had. I'm working on my tenses and I'll make the dialogue easier to follow. Keep reviewing and I'll keep posting.
I insisted on going to the basement. At first I thought Damon was pulling my leg. The well iluminated room, decorated with the elegance and luxury that characterized the Salvatores, didn´t seem like a prison. When he saw my interrogation look he rolled his eyes and walked towards a big mirror that hanged on the main wall. He pull it away, revealing a dark tunnel only iluminated by a few torches.
"Secret tunnels behind walls? Seriously?" I tried to smile " There's no portaits whith fake eyes to spy people?"
"I apologize for not fitting on your naïve expectations" he offered me his hand to step inside the opening. It was wide and it didn´t have the cobwebs Iimagined. I walked a few meters until I felt lost. I didn´t expect a labyrinth like this and I doubted when I hit the point where tha pad separated into three different tunnels. I stop suddenly and my body hit Damon.
"How big is this?" I didn´t wanted my voice to reveal how terrified I was.
"Is a line that used to connect all Mystic Falls 100 years ago. We're almost there." I think he knew how I felt because his hand went around my hip and he pushed me close into a hug. "We can wait until tomorrow. There's no hurry. I'll be here every step of the way. " he whispered into my ear.
"No. I want to see it with my own eyes. I want to hear it from him." Damon's hug gave me confidence. Around him I felt like nothing could hurt me. We stay in that position for some minutes but I felt that I could remain like taht forever, just feeling his body and mine become one.
"The first one on your left." He said pulling back. I thought maybe he didn´t felt comfortable as I did or maybe he did and that scared him. I deliberate with myself for the next 10 minutes until a havy metal door opened in front of me. Damon changed places with me and started opening the lock .
"Promise me you'll stay at a safe distance of him" His look was serious.
"He's not a monster. Come on! A safe distance you make him sound like something radioactive" Now I was upset.
He took my face into his hands " I know you are a depressive girl with suicidal tendencies and you are way to stubborn to listen to my advice so do as you wish." I was about to interrupt him when he move so I could enter. "You'll be surprised of what a thirsty vampire can do"
The room was huge and it had a darker look thn the rest of the pad. I saw two bodies shrunked on each other with broken pieces of what used to be clothes. I got near and I saw heavy chains hanging over the bodies and the wall. They were chained like animals…definitely there was going to be an argument back in the house about that. I keep walking even though I heard Damon come closer.
"Stefan?I'm here." There was no response. I bend down and crawl near. Damon right behind me. "It's me. Ele…" my voice was suppressed by a scream. Too many things happened at the same time.
My hand reached a puddle of blood. And the two figures revealed. My Stefan was giving his arm to a little blond figure that sucked blood out of it. His look seemed lost and suddenly threatening. They both launched at me with their mouths open on a terrific grin. My body was frozen by fear and I couldn´t move until I felt the powerful arms of somebody else around me. The chains stop them and Damon took me outside.
"Stop screaming!" He shouted as he locked the chamber. I noticed then the salty flavor of tears in my mouth.
