Thank-you to all my reviewers so far. I will definitely keep this story going. But just so you know, I always have a beta for my chapters, and I feel very uncomfortable adding chapters without it being looked at first. THIS IS MY FIRST TIME, so please bear with my until I find one.
I apologize in advance for any grammatical errors!
If anyone would be interested in being a beta-reader, let me know and message me :)

It was ten minutes until midnight and Bonnie Bennett lay in bed waiting for sleep to consume her…
But it didn't, as usual the witch listened as the soft pitter patter of rain hit her glass windows.
Instead, she had three good hours worth of salty tears streaking her delicately structured cheekbones.
She was fine now, but the pain the abandonment would not go away. It ebbed away at her, making her feel raw, exposed and alone.
An animalistic scream ripped from her lungs as she tugged at her long chestnut locks, and fell upon her soft carpeted floor.
"Why, why, why?" she would scream over and over again in the most incoherent of shrieks.
No more tears, just horrid cries and self inflicted pain.
She saw Jenna, protective, funny, loving Jenna; she saw Jenna's life drain from her eyes when Klaus laid his hands upon her.
Jenna had absolutely nothing to do with it… or anything, she was the perfect example of the innocents Bonnie was trying to protect and she just died. Not even allowed to live the cursed life of a vampire.
She was dead, and Bonnie was partly to blame.
A deep rumbling came from deep within her and the floorboards underneath the carpet started to shake uncontrollably, as if the very foundation of the house was going to crumble beneath her. She let out another yell and this time tears did flow from her eyes, and with it came torrents of rain drops against her window pane.
"GRAMS!" She wailed sorrowfully.
Bonnie had curled into a ball, hitting her forehead to her knees as she tried to keep herself together, before she fell apart.
Her grandmother's slack figure lit up her mind as the world outside her house battled with a chaotic storm. Lightening streaked the dark blue sky with such clarity.
This raging storm was all unbeknownst to Bonnie as she cried herself to sleep and remembered how she couldn't save Jenna and most of all…
Her Grandmother.
Creaks and whispers flowed through the house as huge and powerful winds flowed outside. They were strong and furious like the emotion running through her now.
It was dangerous to bottle and release her emotions like this, but she couldn't help it, she knew she was releasing her sorrow and pain around Mystic Falls, but she was done caring right now.
She was done caring about everyone else, and trying to save the ones she loved, and failing at her attempts.
The storm was beyond any control now, because she didn't want it to get better, all she wanted to do was be in the midst of her misery.
Clad in only a black chemise, Bonnie rose up from the floor and watched as her window slid open with a mere wave of her hand.
No longer sane and no longer caring who saw, she levitated out the large window as the white chiffon curtains flailed with the torrential wind.
She was truly a sight to be seen, her honey colored complexion was dripping with rain and as she landed into the middle out the cul-de -sac out sider her home. Her chestnut waves floated around her lightly while landing gracefully upon the black concrete of the street.
Having no intentions of keeping up her graceful exit from her bedroom, Bonnie lifted her face towards the sky and let the rain and wind envelop her.
The rain wept with her.
The wind comforted her.
The thunder sobbed with her
And the lightening, the lightening cackled at her with free abandon, the rest of the earth laughed while the lightening was out of her reach.
Bonnie growled inwardly as she stretched out her arms and poured out her emotions into the lashing storm.
Finally at one with the earth, the wind developed a cyclone around her, raising her higher and higher in to the sky, past tree tops and past the roofs on the street. She was getting closer to the lighting, she smiled greedily, she was connected to everything in the storm except it, and she would make sure it the rods of Zeus joined her orchestra of elements.
Bonnie ignored the faces in the windows of the neighboring houses and ignored the far off sound of the wailing siren which promised the law enforcement.
She ignored the knowing voices of her friends down below. Time had travelled so quickly and it was unknown to Bonnie that half of Mystic falls was witnessing her very public supernatural stunt.
Let them all watch me.
Yes indeed, the crazed witch wanted all of Mystic Falls to feel her pain. She tried time and time again, to help and protect this town, but it got her no where and it saved no one.
She felt used and abused by this town, and if she was completely honest, her friends as well.
The cyclone lifted her higher until all the people of Mystic Falls were but tiny little dots and she was side by side with the highest tree of all. She lifted both her hands and waited for the lightening to hit.
Power reveled within her and her petite frame felt stronger than ever.
A streak of light flashed and Bonnie grinned greedily, waiting for the lightening to hit her and then all there was a white hot pain.
She screamed as her arm went numb with pain. If she were a normal human being, she would have been killed, but since her magic was flowing through her, her power had deflected it to a certain extent.
And Bonnie screamed again, this time from frustration. She willed the cyclone to lift her higher but then she turned quickly to the left when she heard the sound of cocky laughter.
Dirty blonde hair, piercing blue eyes, and she knew it was him before she saw his deadly childlike face, sitting on a tree branch as if he held not a care in the world.
Klaus
He wagged his finger and smirked at her offensive stance.
"Strike me down love, and I won't teach you how to control the lightening."
Bonnie was stunned slightly by his words, but then rage took over at seeing the killers face, but before she could attack, he faded into the night, disappearing into the very tree he came from.
A hateful Frenzy consumed her; she no longer could stay conscious. She was finished,
She was done,
The wind released its hold on her and the rain stopped instantly.
Her eyes closed and all she could see were the tormented faces of the all the innocents that died, that she failed to save.
Air rushed about her as she felt gravity claiming her body to the hard cruel earth, she could do nothing to stop it.
What use was she to anybody if she couldn't even save herself?
She braced herself, a natural reaction as she smelled the dirt, the grass and the air, the final hit that would take all the pain away and then…
Arms, arms cradled her gently and laid her on the ground softly as if they were putting a new born to bed.
She wanted to open her eyes and curse the fool that had saved her from her final peace, but she was in shock and barely moaned out a haggard,
"Why?"
"Because, my future witch is no use to me dead."
As if every cell on her was alive, Bonnie's eyes burst open and she felt the cold grass underneath her and hear d the rush of on comers and saw the siren lights flashing. Her friends would be around her soon and she would have some explaining to do.
But she couldn't find the voice that violated her and yet saved her at the same time.
The voice of Klaus.
Sorry for the short chapter! I just needed to get this little thing out before the story can proceed. * I love how I act like I know where its going*
