When Bonnie woke up she found herself in a dimly lit room with the shades drawn.

"Damn." she cursed under her breath when she realized that she was restrained by what seemed to be wood at her ankles as well as her wrists.

The more she struggled the more wood cut into her flesh painfully.

She was tied securely to a chair which without the use of her hands was impossible to escape from.

The door to the room opened revealing a smirking Damon holding a mug of blood.

Though the thought of drinking old blood disgusted her, she became all too aware of her burning thirst.

"Good morning sunshine. I brought you a drink. I figured since you were out for three days you would probably be thirsty." he said as he entered the room.

"You wouldn't by any chance have any tall dark and handsome around would you? I'm sorry but I don't go green."

"unfortunately we just ran out of the tall, but I have plenty of the dark and sexy going on right here." he replied as he gestured to himself.

"Don't get too full of yourself there."

She rolled her eyes.

"Here Drink, its o positive extra virgin." he said as he offered her the mug.

She held up her restrained hands.

"Okay, undo these and I will take the mug from you."

He chuckled darkly and replied, "I don't think so sweetheart. For now I will just have to feed you." he pulled out a bendy straw and placed it into the crimson liquid.

She drank the blood greedily when he put the straw to her lips, and though bagged blood wasn't her cup of tea it soothed her parched throat just the same.

When she was done he placed the cup on a night stand and sat down on the bed.

"So what's the plan? You going to keep me here for an eternity?" she asked.

"If that's how long it's going to take then yes."

He shrugged.

"Takes for what?"

"For you to become the sweet Bonnie We all live and know."

She laughed then.

"Don't hold your breath then. That naive girl died when christian snapped her neck."

He was in front of her in a split second staring her straight in the eyes.

He was silent for a moment just staring at her intently as if he was searching for something.

"Oh? Is that so? Because I think she is in there somewhere buried deep down trying to claw her way out of the darkness, and believe me when I say I will help her get out."

Bonnie smirked then.

"What do you want her back for? I'm so much more fun."

"I think it's safe to say that your idea of fun is completely different from mine."

"I beg to differ. Like it or not, you and I are the same and you know it."

He got up and walked to the door and turned to her once more.

"I may have been like you once but that was before you showed me how good it felt to care again."

With that he walked out of the door leaving her to herself.


It had been three days since Bonnie had come to the boardinghouse and Meredith had seen no sign if the red head anywhere.

She prowled the streets at night and searching the whole of the small town, and it seemed as if Bonnie had disappeared without a trace.

She knew that Bonnie was smart and calculating so it seemed highly probable that she was settled in a nearby town close by.

It didn't escape her notice that Damon seemed to have vanished as well, probably having gone off to join Bonnie in her little tirade.

If this was the case she would turn every town upside down until she found them and end them.

She had to keep reminding herself that Bonnie wasn't herself anymore and that she was just a cold vampire that needed to be stopped because the lives if innocent people were at stake.


"Have you seen Bonnie?" Elena asked when Stefan entered the boarding house fresh from a hunt.

"No, not since the night she came here. Come to think of it I haven't seen Damon since then either." he replied.

"You don't think she... You know." Matt said as he ran his hand across his neck in a slicing motion.

Stefan chuckled then.

"Though my brother can have that affect on people I highly doubt it. He's a big boy and can take care of himself."

"I don't know, I have pretty much gotten used to Damon, and Bonnie made Damon seem as harmless as a kitten." Matt shuddered.

"Is that so mutt? Need I remind you just how dangerous I can be?" Damon materialized as if out of thin air in front of Matt.

Matt just shrugged.

"Bonnie still has you beat."

Elena spoke up once again coming to the jocks rescue.

"Damon, where have you been?"

He smirked at her.

"Oh I've been around…"

"You wouldn't have by any chance seen Bonnie have you." Stefan asked.

"No. Besides you heard her. She's long gone probably all tied up draining puppy dogs or something."

Stefan looked at his brother as if searching for something.

Damon rolled his eyes.

"What is it brother. I am not her keeper. How should I know where she has run off to?"

"Oh, nothing." Stefan answered.

"Good. Now that you have wasted my time I think I will go find myself a tasty little brunette."

Elena gawked at him in horror.

He smirked.

"Don't fret my pet; I am not going to the dark side any time soon."

And with that he was gone.


He had only wanted to come long enough to keep up appearances. He didn't quite trust Bonnie to leave her alone for too long.

He transformed into his crow form and was about to take off when he caught sight of something interesting.

He flew up to the highest branch of a nearby pine and watched as Meredith with her stave neatly strapped to her back snuck into the back door of the boarding house.

Looks like someone pulled an all nighter. He thought to himself.

He flew off once she disappeared through the door.

He would have to be extra careful if he wanted his plan to work and he couldn't afford to make a single mistake.

Bonnie's life depended on it.


AN: Well? Tell me what you thought of this ch, what you think will happen next or even what you would like to see in the future. I really do read all of the comments and even if I cannot get to all of you individually to thank you as I wish I could, I listen to what you have to say. =)

So you may be wondering why I have been updating this story so quickly and not my others. Its only because I have chapters written in advance for this one because during my too long break from FanFic I began this one. I promise I will try to get the others updated Asap but truthfully it seems I only have free time during the weekends right now.
