Chapter 3: The last day part 1
Marceline woke up, hearing voices coming from down below her, she sighed and got up quietly making her way over to the bedroom door, she opened it and listned carefully.
"This is an elixir that I acquired some 500 years ago for Katerine. It posseses mystical properties of resusucitation" An English voice said. Elijah?
"So I'll be dead?" Elena asked, Marceline made a face. She did not like this girl, at all.
"and then you won't be"
"That's your plan? A magical potion with no epiration date?" Her father's voice said, it sounded a bit strangled "You want to come back to life, what about John's ring?"
"Those rings only work on humans. The doppelganger's a supernatural occurance. Odds are, the ring won't work"
"I'll take those ods over your elixir. What if it doesn't work, Elena?"
"Then I guess, I'll just be dead" Elena said and Marceline rolled her eyes, oh how dramatic this doppelganger was.
Marceline moved back, away from the door and shut it back over, slowly going over to the bed and picking out clothes from the bag and quickly got changed, rummaling her black hair before going over to the window, she looked out seeing her father standing with a drink, she slowly opened the window and was then beside him.
"Is it even ten in the morning yet?" She asked, she pulled her hair around one shoulder.
"You need a haircut" Damon replied, ignoring her question.
"My hair has been this length for years, I'm not going to cut it now...besidies it looks awesome, so...no need for me to cut it off"
"I think the father get's a say in that" Damon smirked.
"Uh. No" She said shaking her head. "So...girlfriend trying to get herself killed huh?"
"Not my girlfriend"
"You're in a bad mood" She said making a face.
""Not in a bad mood, I'm just surrounded by idiots"
He took a drink and Marceline frowned "You know, you're in a bad mood because you love her and you don't want to lose her"
Damon said nothing in return and took another swig of his drink.
"Breakfast of champions huh?" Stefan asked appearing beside Marceline.
"I'm surrounded by idiots. I need all the help I can get" Damon replied.
"You know, you're not helping"
"Neither is Elena" Marceline said "Any normal person would...run...I mean it's Klaus"
"Klaus or not" Stefan said "She doesn't want the people she loves to get hurt...she'll be alive"
"Elijah is an Original vampire Stefan. One we tried to kill. You're going to believe this guy?"
"What do you want me to do Damon? Elena made her decision, she's choosing to trust Elijah, I'm going to put my faith in her"
"Why? She's going to end up dead" Damon said.
"Because she put her faith in me. She chose to trust me in spite of what I am. I'm going to bet on somebody's instincts it's going to be hers"
"Well, then, that makes you the biggest idiot of them all" Damon replied.
"She chose to trust you, too" Stefan said and Marceline looked at Damon, knowing he was buying none of it.
"Then maybe you shouldn't be so sure about her instincts" Damon said and walked away from the, and headed back into the house. Stefan sighed, patted Marceline's back and walked back into the house. She stood for a minute before deciding to go somewhere other than sit in the house with people who were just going to argue all day.
-oOoOo-
She walked into the Grill and moved up to the bar.
"You're a little young looking, I'll need ID" The bartender said.
"Oh I don't want a drink" She smiled "Just a coffee"
"Ah" He said and walked away, it was then that a blonde boy caught her eye and she turned to look at him, if she'd been human her heart would've fluttered, she smiled slightly. He moved around, cleaning tables and then a blonde, who went by the name of Caroline, Marceline only knew this due to the fact that poor little barbie vampire had been one of Katherne's victims.
She rolled her eyes and turned, the coffee was now in front of her and she picked it up and sat, drinking it slowly.
"Does she suspect anything?" A voice asked and Marceline turned her head slightly, seeing the blonde boy now sitting with an older version of Caroline. Sheriff.
"No but...I can't do this anymore. I've been with ehr the past few days, and I'm putting on the best show of my life. But either she is too or she's still the same Caroline" He said. So he knew about Vampire's.
"She's not the same. She's a vampire"
"At this point, I don't even know what that means"
"Look, I know this is hard to understand, but my family, we were raised with this. They're monster's, Matt. They have no soul, no humanity"
"There's nothing about her that makes me believe that"
"It's an act. I believed Damon Salvatore was my closest ally in this town. Instead, he's a killer. They killed your sister. What other proof do you need?"
"I could ask you the same question, Sheriff. Why haven't you done anything? Why are you hesitating?"
"Because I need more information. And because in spite of everything I just said, I still look at her and I...I see my daughter"
"Damon is the problem, not Caroline. You should focus on him"
Oh is that so? Marceline just got her father, she wasn't going to let some bus boy and a stupid blonde cop take down him away.
"I shouldn't have involved you, Matt. Thank you for all your help, but I'll take it from here"
The Sheriff left and Marceline moved quickly and moved in front of the boy named Matt. "Sit down" she said, he stared at her "Please? I need to ask you something"
He looked around "Do I know you?"
"I'm Marceline, and I just heard everything you said now if you would please sit down" She said and he gulped, and moved so he was sitting. "I'm not going to hurt you..Matt is it?"
"Yeah"
"I'm know a lot about Vampire's" She said and his eyes bugged out slightly "Don't worry, I'm not going to hurt you or anyone else in this town, I'm here to see family, but Vampire's are nothing like what she just told you"
"Why are you-"
"Because, everything Caroline is now is what she was when she was human, all that's different is the fact that her emotions are a lot higher now, that's it...she's still the same. Just so you know" With that Marceline got up and moved from the grill and ended up back at the boarding house.
She went in, but as she got to the door, and seen A woman, A blonde haired man, Stefan and Elijah sitting.
"Uncle Stefan" She said going to go past. "People..I dont' know"
"Marceline?" ELijah asked.
"Hello Elijah" She said.
"It's been-"
"40 years? Yeah" She said and headed for the stairs.
"Marceline, this is Elena's aunt Jenna and Alaric Saltzman" Stefan said."Guy's this is...Damon's..."
"Daughter" Marceline smirked.
"Daughter?" Jenna asked.
"Uh-huh" She nodded "Wait..Oh...Alaric Saltzman...I've heard that name before" Marceline said tapping her chin "Where have I heard your name before?"
"I have no clue" he shrugged.
"Oh...I know" She said and nodded "Never mind"
She turned and went up the stairs but she stopped, hearing the voices of her father and Elena. She rolled her eyes and went to go past but stopped again listening in.
"You think it will work. You want it to work. Why am I the only one convinced it won't work? There has to be another way" Damon said.
"There isn't" Elena said.
"And you're going to die, Elena"
"And then I'll come back to life"
"That is not a risk, I am willing to take"
"But I am" She said "It's my life Damon, my choice"
"I can't lose you" He whispered, Marceline frowned.
"You won't" Elena sighed and she moved.
"There is another way" Damon said, much clearer.
"What are you-" Elena began. Marceline moved her head and seen them right at the door, Damon bit into his wrist and pressed it to her mouth. "Damon no!"
He put it to her mouth and forced her to drink it, she struggled, going against her better judgement Marceline moved and grabbed Elena, managing to get her away from Damon. Marceline looked at her and almost choked out a sob, the blood dripping from her mouth brought back memories of the day she'd been turned.
She then looked back to Damon who was staring at her in shock.
"What did you do?" She asked.
"What's going on?" Stefan asked entering the room, he seen Elena and glared at Damon "What did you do?!"
"I saved her life" Damon said. He looked past Marceline at Elena "You're so bent on dying at least this way I know you'll come back"
"As a vampire" Marceline said "She'll be a vampire..."
"it's better than nothing else"
"How could you of all people take that choice away from her?!" Stefan growled.
Damon stared at Elena "Go ahead, wish me an eternity of misery. Believe me. You'll get over it"
Stefan rushed at Damon and pushed him.
"Stefan!" Elena cried but Marceline grabbed her. She seen Damon grab a wooden stick and he slammed Stefan into the wall with it.
"Admit it you just wish you had the balls to do it yourself" Damon spat. Stefan punched him in the face, and continued before Damon fell to the floor. He had blood on his face and he grabbed the wooden stake and stabbed Stefan with it. Marceline let Elena go and she rushed over to Stefan. She looked up at Damon, hate filling her eyes.
"Get out of here!" She growled at him, Damon staggered back a little bit.
"What the hell is going on?" Alaric asked coming to the doorway with Jenna.
"Get him out!" Elena cried.
Marceline moved and grabbed Damon's arm and he tried tugging away from her but she pulled him roughly from the room. She moved so they were in the library, seeing Elijah put away the little bottle.
"Well it sounds like you won't be needing this anymore. Feeding her vampire blood rendered it useless. Tell Elena I'll be back before nightfall. We'll proceed as planned" Elijah said.
"We both know that elixir wouldn't have worked anyway" Damon said.
"The problem, Damon, you talk a good game but you don't actually know anything. She'll never forgive you. And never for a vampire...it's a very long time" Elijah said and with that he left.
"Go on say it" Damon said turning to the raven haired teen in front of him.
"Say what?" She asked.
"How bad-"
"it's not bad. You love her, would do anything for her okay I get it. But that...was out of order"
"Out of order?"
She shrugged "I'm not talking about her, I'm talking about you" She said "Come on..."
"Where?"
"the grill...you need a drink" she said making a face and he rolled his eyes.
-oOoOo-
The two were sitting in the grill and had now been joined by Alaric.
"Ladies, Gentlemen why so glum?" A voice asked.
Marceline groaned internally and the three turned, seeing him in all his english handsomeness glory.
"Ugh, Klaus I presume" Damon said.
"In the flesh" he said and looked to Alaric "Thanks for the loaner, mate"
"Any reason you stopped to say hi?" Damon asked.
"I'm told you and your brother fancy my doppelganger. Just thought I'd remind you to not try anything, you'll regret"
"Ha. Thanks for the advice, I don't suppose I could talk you into a postponement" Damon said "By any chance huh?"
"You are kidding, " HE said and looked to Alaric "He is kidding, right?"
"No, not really"
"I mean come on, what's another month in the whole grand scheme of things?" Damon asked.
"let me be clear, I have my vampire, I have my werewolf the ritual will happen tonight. So if you want to live to tomorrow, don't screw it up" Klaus said.
Damon sighed and rolled his eyes.
"Marcy it's good to see you" Klaus said with a wide smile. Marceline frowned at the look Damon was now giving her.
"I wish I could say the same" Marceline said rolling her eyes.
"Ah, no need to be rude love" he winked.
"There's EVERY need to be rude"
"No you're just mad that I killed your friend back in the day"
"No I just don't like you"
"You liked me then" he smirked.
She scowled and made a face "Yeah, no" She scoffed.
"Well love, another time" He said and waved off before leaving. "
"That was fun" Damon said.
"You're going to screw it up aren't you?" Alaric asked.
"You think if I took his-"
"No" marceline said "He'll kill you without blinking"
"If I can take his werewolf out of the equation, she might get over the fact that I tried to turn her into a vampire...right?"
"I think it's not going to matter" Alaric said.
"Because you'll be dead" Marceline nodded.
"But without the werewolf he can't perform the ritual tonight which means, I would have bought her another month before the next full moon"
"And you'll still be dead" Alaric said.
"see?" Marceline said patting Alaric's shoulder "He get's it"
"Are you two gonna help me or what?"
"What do you want me to do?" Alaric asked.
Damon looked to Marceline, his eyes pleading "Uh...I'm the child in this relationship...it should be me getting into trouble and nearly dying...not you"
"Ah see you're agreeing" Damon said.
Marceline stared at him, was he serious "okay" She sighed heavily before rolling her eyes "What do we do?"
-oOoOo-
Alaric entered his apartment "well look who's dumb enough to come back" Katherine said.
"Somebody had to invite them in" Alaric said. "Damon, Marceline would you like to come in?"
They both entered and Marceline's eyes landed on Katherine "YOU!" She growled, before she got to go anywhere Damon grabbed her. "I'll kill you!"
Katherine stepped back and frowned, as the the raven haird teen's arms flailed out in front of her trying to grab at the brunette, she struggled in Damon's arms.
"are you trying to get me killed?" Katherine asked Damon who only glared at her in response.
Marceline was so angry and she wanted to grab ahold of the bitch and rip her head off, she just had to get out of Damon's arms to get her. "Let me go" She said.
"No chance"
"LET. ME. GO!"
"No" Damon said his grip tightening.
What the hell was he supposed to do now?
