Stefan sighed and rubbed his forehead, feeling the pressure and stress sink in as he stared at the same book he had begun 2 hours ago. He gazed at the clock and sighed, realising he had another 2 hours before he had to pick Bonnie up from school and he had promised that he would have good news for her and he didn't think that "I haven't found anything" was her idea of good news!
He sighed gratefully to the heavens above when he heard Damon walk through the front door. He raced to meet him, tripping on the table leg in the centre of the room. Upon hearing Damon laugh at him, he glanced up and spit the hairs that belonged to the carpet, out of his mouth.
"Damon, your home! Great!" Stefan said, gratefully. Smiling thankfully at his brother, he walked over to the bar situated in the far end of the living room. Taking the glass of liquor from Stefan, Damon frowned.
"What do you want, Stefan?" Damon asked, tiredly. Stefan frowned, Am I that obvious?, he thought. Yes you are, now answer the question! Damon's voice rung in his mind, he glared at Damon.
"Stay out of my mind," Stefan warned, while Damon copied a I-surrender-act.
"It's kind of hard when your projecting, you don't project thoughts, I don't read your thoughts. Its really that simple," Damon explained, downing his drink. Looking at Stefan intently, he sighed.
"Are you going to tell me or do I have to figure it out for myself?" Damon questioned, quite annoyed with his brother.
"Right, listen. I found the problem with Bonnie. Klaus is back on the scene, along with a companion and I think Klaus is trying to use Bonnie to gain something," Stefan explained, leading Damon into his fathers old study, where old, dusty, useful books stood stacked high a low while candles and lamps lit the room, giving a warm family feel and glow. The walls were dark wood and consisted of a criss cross pattern although you had to look really closely to see this. Damon followed, automatically interested.
"Hmmm! And who is his companion?" He quizzed, picking up a book, scanning it for information on what his brother might be finding.
"Can't tell you. But Bonnie did tell me an important piece of information," Stefan replied, staring at his brother stroll around the room like his father used too.
Damon won't admit it but he is so like father, the way he strolls around, he mused. Damon stopped abruptly. Turning to glare at him.
"Don't say that ever again," Damon hissed. "Now, tell me about this important information."
"Right, well Bonnie said that every time she practises every morning for 1 hour before school and for three hours every night and she said that every time she does the spell, she feels like her energy is being drained," Stefan said, slowly.
"Well the answer is easy then. The reason that Bonnie is important to Klaus is because either him or his companion, which by the way I will find out, is weak and is using Bonnie's magical energy to live. Her power with the spell will build, causing her to grow weaker in magic everyday, meaning she loses a bit of her magic, until they have one bit left, then they will take the rest of her energy and leave her too die."
"So …?" Stefan urged him to make it clear.
"Its an energy spell! They drain her energy, till she's six feet under!" Damon shouted.
Ohm y god! How could I be so dumb? I need to get to Bonnie. Stefan realised. He rushed towards the front door, grabbing his black leather and taking off for the door. He needed to warn Bonnie not to do that spell as she was unwillingly giving her power away.
He just hoped he wasn't too late!
