Faith's POV

I woke up naked in Elena's bed. For the first time since I was turned, we had had sex and it felt great. I just wanted to lay there with my eyes closed. I noticed that Elena was up and I had a feeling that she was ogling my bare body.

"You're staring." I told her.

"I'm gazing." She argued. She probably wondered how I knew.

"It's creepy." I declared with my eyes still closed.

"It is romantic." She declared before she kissed me. Once we were done, I opened my eyes and we began to roll around the sheets together. "I missed being with you."

"Well I can't guarantee how long this is going to last." I stated. "I love you but I also love Anna and I'm willing to admit that to myself. I don't know who I want more, but right now, I want you."

"So are you sure that this will work to get Katherine to come out of hiding?" She asked.

"No, but I don't have any other ideas." I declared. "So could I interest you in a shower by any chance?"

"I can't. I have to go to the Lockwood Masquerade Setup Thing." She declared.

"Well that's quite a coincidence because so do I." I replied with a smile. "But Anna is going to be there and I don't want to ice her out. I want to still be friends with her even though I'm with you."

"You don't need me permission to be friends with anyone." She told me.

"Well there is one thing that I need from you: clothes." I declared. "I'll pick something while you're bathing."

I picked a grey tank with a pinstriped scarf and black leggings with a black jacket. I couldn't help but like how I looked in Elena's clothes.

Lucy's POV

Caroline and I went to see our mom once again, even though she hadn't said a word to either of us in the past few days. I was wearing a maroon tee with a skirt miniskirt and tights and leather jacket.

"So we brought you some lunch." I declared. She said nothing. "Are you gonna eat?"

She still didn't say anything.

"So Doctor Damon says the vervain should be out tonight and we can get you out of here soon." Caroline tried only to also be met with silence.

"Mom, we want to talk to you." I remarked. "You can't seriously want to pretend Caroline doesn't exist, can you?"

"Yes." She answered. "I want you to go, both of you."

I assumed she was mad at me for not telling her, but given her reaction, I didn't have a reason to tell her.

"Fine, I was just trying to be helpful." Caroline replied spitefully as she grabbed the tray. "It's not like I died or anything."

That kind of was it.

"Are you really dead?" Mom asked sadly.

"Not entirely." Caroline said

I decided that it would be good for them to talk about it without me.

Faith's POV

I went to meet Anna when I got to the Lockwood house. I found that she was with Amber.

"What are you two doing together?" I asked.

"Well I don't have a lot of friends that know about this." Amber stated. "I can't believe that I'm here."

"Were you going to come to the masquerade?" I questioned.

"Yeah, I was looking forward to it." She explained. "So my sister said that she was over at Tyler's yesterday and Jeremy had these weird drawings of wolves and stuff. You said that Tyler was a werewolf, didn't you?"

"His uncle's a werewolf." Anna corrected. "He has to kill someone in order to become a werewolf."

"So I heard that you and Elena were back together." Amber remarked.

"We are." I confirmed. "Part of the reason is because I know it'll make Katherine very angry."

"I still think that you're making a mistake." Anna declared. I looked at her. "I mean by egging Katherine on. It could come back to bite you."

I texted her and I found out that she couldn't talk because she was filling in Bonnie on what had happened recently. Did it mean she and Bonnie were friends again?

I decided that I should go see what Stefan and Damon were up to. However, before I got to them, I was found by Jenna.

"Hey, Faith, I was going to cook dinner tonight." She declared. "You're welcome to come. Ric will be there. I'm glad that you and Elena are back together."

"How did you know about that?" I asked her.

"I heard you two in her room this morning." She declared. I blushed. It was kind of mortifying to be honest, but at least she didn't walk in while we were doing it.

"I'll be there." I promised. "But can we never speak about what you heard again?"

"Sure." She agreed with a smile as she walked away.

I then found Stefan. He was with Mason.

"Hi Mason." He greeted the werewolf.

"Hey, Stefan." Mason replied nervously. "I wasn't expecting you here…or anywhere."

"Yeah, I had this accident but I'm fine now thanks to Faith." Stefan declared.

"What did you to Sheriff Forbes?" Mason demanded.

"She's fine, but from now on, you'll have to fight your own battles." I said.

"Got it." Mason remarked as he hastily exited, accidentally bumping Bonnie as he did.

"That was weird." The witch said.

"What?" I asked.

"When I touched him, I saw him and Elena…kissing." Bonnie explained.

"No, Elena would never do that." I declared.

"You didn't see Elena." Stefan replied. Oh, that made sense. "You saw Katherine."

I realized that we needed to get Damon and Anna over because things had just gone from bad to worse and Mason definitely needed to be eliminated. As soon as we got there, the two of us explained what had just transpired.

"Katherine's with Mason Lockwood?" Damon asked in disbelief. It did seem like a bit of an odd choice for someone who apparently liked girls now.

"They got here around the same time." Anna pointed out.

"But Mason Lockwood?" Damon responded. "Werewolf aside, the guy's a surfer. She's gotta be using him."

"What could she be using him for?" I mused.

"Well he's looking for the moonstone that breaks the full moon curse, maybe she wants it too." Damon suggested.

"Why?" I asked.

"I have no clue, but that seems to be Katherine's MO. She does stuff that doesn't make sense." He pointed out. I couldn't really argue with that. I still couldn't figure out why she turned Caroline.

"Well where is this moonstone?" Stefan inquired.

"Jeremy was going to get it from Tyler." Damon answered.

"What the hell are you doing involving Jeremy in this?" Stefan asked.

"He volunteered." Damon replied. "As far as I'm concerned, he's involving himself."

I then got a text from Elena wondering what I was doing.

"I'm with Stefan and Damon and Bonnie, I'll fill you in later." I texted back.

"Damon and Bonnie?" She replied. "Fill me in now."

"Okay, so I have to go fill Elena in on what's happening." I declared. "If you find out where this moonstone is, let me know."

I walked away and then found her.

"So what is going on?" She asked.

"Bonnie got a vision of Katherine and Mason kissing and we think that they're working together." I explained to her.

"So are you going to kill him?" She questioned.

"I don't know. I had to leave before I found out." I pointed out. "I know I was in favor of a few days ago, but now I think that Katherine might be manipulating him to the point where he's in over his head. To kill him just doesn't really seem that fair."

"He tried to kill Stefan and Damon and he also threatened to kill me." She argued. "We should kill him."

Lucy's POV

I was still upstairs as Caroline was talking to our mother. I knew that they were the ones that needed to talk, but I couldn't help but wonder if I should be down there. Before I could make a decision, Damon came into the house carrying Mason's unconscious body. Bonnie was with him. Damon then took him and chained him to a chair.

"Are you going to tell me what's going on?" I asked as I looked at them.

"Simply put Mason is Katherine's fuck buddy." Damon explained. I blushed. "Can you find the moonstone?"

Bonnie touched his head like she was searching it.

"I seem it somewhere dark and wet." Bonnie explained.

"You mean like a well?" I asked.

"I don't know but that could make sense." Bonnie agreed. "Where that well that we used to play by as kids."

I sighed as I tried to scan my memory for it. I then found out that I did know where it was.

"It was on the old Lockwood property." I explained. "I can send it to Faith right now."

Faith's POV

I didn't find out what they planned on doing with but I did find out that the moonstone was hidden in a well on the old Lockwood property. I brought Elena with me and noticed that it was locked. I snapped it with my bare hands and then took the metal lid off and threw it to the ground.

"Are you sure that you can get from there?" She asked.

"Yes, I've practiced jumping." I explained. "I'll only be down there for a minute."

I jumped into the hoping that it would ruin her clothes and immediately felt discomfort. At that point, I realized that I had jumped into a trap, one set with vervain.

"Elena, there's vervain in here!" I shouted before it began to seep through my skin and I blacked out.

Lucy's POV

I decided to stay with Damon while Bonnie and Caroline went to the well.

"So what are you doing?" I asked.

"I'm going to find out what he's doing here and what Katherine wants." Damon declared.

"How are you going to do that?" I responded.

"I'm going to torture it out of him." He declared as he grabbed a hot poker. I was starting to wonder if I should have gone with them. I could also go see how my mom was doing. "Wake up!"

Mason then shot awake and struggled against the chains.

"So how do you know my girl Katherine?" Damon asked nicely. "Okay, fine, we'll do this the hard way."

Damon then grabbed the poker and stabbed him with it. Mason screamed out in pain. It was definitely hard to watch but at the same time, I couldn't take my eyes away.

Jeremy then came in with some wolfsbane and Damon shoved it in his face. He might as well have been waterboarding the guy.

"Damon, just kill him already!" I shouted. "Enough of this. We're not going to find out why he's working with Katherine."

"I'm working with Katherine because I love her." Mason declared. "She said that she wants the moonstone so she can break the curse and I'll never have to turn again."

"Wow, you poor naïve moron." Damon declared. "I believe that you love her, but I also know that she doesn't love you back. I've been where you are now. That bitch is only going to rip your heart out. Let me do it first."

He then reached into Mason's chest and literally ripped his heart out.

"You should go." He told me.

Faith's POV

When I regained consciousness, Elena was filling my mouth with her blood. I looked up and saw that Caroline was there and so was Bonnie and there was also a little white rock.

I went home and got changed before I headed over to the Gilbert house where Jenna was cooking dinner.

"You know you saved me." I told her. "Even though I wasn't going to die, you still got me out and I'm grateful for that."

The phone then rang and Jenna answered it.

"It's for you." She told me as she handed the phone. Who could be calling me at the Gilbert house and why didn't they call my cell?

"Hello, Faith." Katherine declared.

"Katherine." I stated.

"You know you have a lot of courage. You started dating Elena again right after I told you to stay away from her, luckily I came prepared. I managed to convince Jenna to switch up her perfume that you made for her and she's been spying for me, and I also decided to suggest to her that the world would be better off without her."

At that point, Jenna took a knife and stabbed herself in the gut with it. I dropped the phone in shock. I then bit into my wrist and prepared to feed her my blood.

"No, if you do that, Katherine could turn her." Elena pointed out. "We have to get her to the hospital."

So we took her there and the doctors said that they would be able to operate on it. Apparently, she missed all of her vital organs. I couldn't believe that Katherine had managed to compel her. We were so careful.

"So we got very lucky tonight." Elena told me. "You know this is all your fault. You're the one who had the idea to provoke and now Jenna's in the hospital. We can't be together Faith and I shouldn't have gone along with it. I never should have gotten back together with you in the first place. Katherine's won and maybe you should be with her."

"Elena, I don't want to be with Katherine. I want to be with you." I told her.

"Well that's not an option and it never will be." She declared. "I want you to leave me alone."

I couldn't believe it. I had heard from Stefan and Damon that they had killed Mason, but I honestly was too depressed to care about any of it. I went up to my room and began to cry but I realized that I didn't want to cry. There was only one thing that I wanted to do and I was going to find a way to do it. I was not going to let anyone tell me that I couldn't do it and I was going to find her. Sometime in the next 24 hours, I was going to kill Katherine.

So as you can see, Faith's plan totally blew up in her face and now she wants to kill Katherine, which she can't do. Please don't forget to review.
